from early morn till after dark. There

eye lighted up at alght of him, who
- were eager to press bis acquaintance
and muuy of whom never passed blm
without some semblance of a military
salute. '.These were tbe members of tbe
Brentwood rifles, officially known as
Company C.of tbe Fourtb Nebraska.
One evening, hardly a weelt after Mel
ville bad gone, three of them came to
see blm. "Cap." they said, was going
- to quit lie bad been so quizzed and
criticised for letting tbe strikers get
away with their guns that be couldn't
stand the pressure. Tbe lieutenants
were green, aud wouldn't Mr. Langdon
come round to tbe armory two even-
lugs a week and drill them?' Now,
Langdon had been planning a course
of reading In the library of tbe Young
Men's CbrUttaa association, but the
rl0i-s were iniportunata. ,'j Something
might come of It and be consented.
Eighteen men appeared tbe first night
Tuesday and 88 tbe second Friday.
One of tbe lieutenants was the son of
tbo leading banker of Brentwood, tbe
other a young lawyer. Both greeted
blm civilly and aat and watched his
'work with absorbing Interest. ' Tbe
third ulgbt "Cap" came round and
looked on. Forty-four men were In
ranks twice as many aa he could ever
scrape together for drill and, though
bo shook band with Langdon dnrlng a
rest, and said be found bis buslnes re
quired all bis time and attention and
therefore he had concluded to resign,
his ' manner lacked cordiality. : Two
weeks later a committee waited on
Langdon to know If be would accept
the commaud of tbe company If elect
ed, and after an exchange of letters be
tween himself and Channlng Langdon
aald that If unanimously chosen and
the lieutenants waived promotion, be
would serve. Then It got Into the pa
pers. The members of tbe company.
as a rule, were young clerk, book
keepers and salesmen, highly Intelli
gent and full of enthusiasm, but tbelr
hapless experience had made them tbe
laughing stock of tbe street boys, the
railway shop men ana the vagabond
class of the community as well as of
certain envious fellow citltens. "Tin
soldiers." they were called, when all
that waa needed to make them a force
to be dreaded by lawbreakers was a
captain ho knew hi business, could
command tbelr respect and teach them
steadiness, drill and discipline Lieu
tenant ferrlgo was presiding af tbe
meeting wnen a sergeant arose and in
a caustic speech pointed out tbelr
needs and defects and, aaying there
wa just one man In the community
capable of doing them Justice, propos
ed that tbe captaincy be tendered to
Mr. Erie Langdon, whereat the whole
meeting, barring It presiding officer,
, sprang to Its feet and cheered. There
wa not a dissenting voice, and 49
members were present
Yet within a week tbe Brentwood
Banner began publishing Insidious lit
tle paragraphs. "It Is understood that
the rides contemplate a change In the
captaincy. Y bat has Brentwood done
that several capable officers should be
overlooked and the commaud tendered
to a kicked out captain from the ar
my t' was the first specimen. The Ex
aminer asked If tbe rifles expected to
add to their popularity by putting at
their bead a man who would have
slaughtered a score of fellow cltlxens
but for the prompt and merciful Inter
vention of local officials. The Exam-
luer was supporting the sheriff for re
election, aud this official well knew the
paragraph to be utterly unjust and un
true, but be oouldu't quarrel with his
bread and batter, and It was best to
admit tacitly, now that the danger waa
over, that he had actually interposed
In behalf of tbe strikers. At all events.
be did nothing to cause Its correction.
The Brentwood Sun (I'opullst) said if
anything was needed to add to tbe con
tempt In which the rlflea were held it
was tbe rumor that they bad tendered
the command to an ex-officer of the ar
my whose drunken fully was so near
to costing scores of precious lives not a
fortnight since. And Langdon, who
stood ready to devote valuable time
and energy to the public service, with
little hope of any reward whatever,
read these Insidious attacks with In
finite pain and sens of wrong and In
justice, against which be stood power
less. Other Influences, too, were evi
dently at work. Tbe election, whk-a
was to have taken place tbe first Mon
day In January, was postponed a fort
night Boniface. Eric's friend of the
BrentwocwV took blm aside and advised
him to withdraw hi name. The com
mittee, on the contrary, had begged
him to "stand pat" Meantime Lang-
continued drilling and Instructing
the company, and two nights a week
the armory waa crowded with citizens
whose Interest had been arojissd aud
who cam to look on. Veteran soldiers,
O. A. ft men, went away saylug that
fellow knew hla trade up to tbe ban
die. Prominent business tut-u looked
on silently and did a good deal of
til.' 'JUng a tbey strolled homeward.
Newspaper reporters, previously In
stmctod, wrot scathing or satirical
paragraphs about martinet manner
Isms, Imported Instructors, dismissed
drUlmasUira and the like, and Eric,
proud, sad, sensitive, would gladly
hav given up and abut himself In bis
sooty den at tbe yards but for a letter
from Melville, to whom be bad sent all
the papers. "Stick to It, Langdon," be
said. "Tbe time will come when the
very paper that abuse you now will
have to change their tune." This was
what tbe major's letter said, but not
th major's band. Ills eyes still felt
tbe force of that cruel blow, and Ethel
Graham waa his amanuensis. "I bar
faith in your future," aaid be. "So
hav 1," in tiny letters wrote tbe aman
uensis "E. G."
' And so, despite tbe warning of mine
host of tbe Brentwood, Langdon stood
for election tbe third Monday in Janu
ary vnd was beaten SO to 10, tbe sec
ond lieutenant and son of Brentwood's
richest banker being the successful
comDetitor. "A Merited Rebuke," re
ferring to Langdon, said The Sun
Merited Promotion," referring to Per-
rlgo junior, a boy of 22, said The Ban
ner; "A Foregone Conclusion," - said
Tbe Examiner. But it was noticeable
that the last two named refrained from
further active abuse of Langdon. The
object of the magnate was accom
plished In compassing the defeat of
what The Sun called bla "aspirations.
Down la their hearts both editors and
magnates realized that Langdon was a
wronged and Injured man. It wouldn't
do to say so, of caurse, yet be had
checked that mob at a moment when
Its triumph meant the birth of a'relgn
of terror in Brentwood. lie alone bad
stood between them and anarchy. Tbey
bowed to the behest of the Seattle be
cause It practically owned them. . Th
editor of Tbe Banner met Langdon at
tbe Brentwood two daya later, stopped.
stammered and held out his band.
Mr. Langdon, my name's Armstrong,
said be. "I'm managing editor of The
Banner, and I thought I'd like to say
to you that I I personally don't ap
prove of tbe attitude my paper bas bad
to assume in your case. I suppose you
know the papers have to carry out cer
tain lines of policy and sometime at
tack men whom tbe editor would
much rather befriend."
Langdon turned very . white. Ills
hand naturally bad been extended to
accept that of tbe stranger It I tbe
American fashion but now it was
withdrawn. Hla Hps quivered a bit
but hi eye never Ulncbed from tbelr
gase straight Into those of tbe journal-
hit -.
"I hav no use whatever for tbe
friendship of a man who will privately
assure me of his good will, , said he,
"and publicly defame me." Then be
turned his back on him and walked
away. :..-,!
Boniface saw tbe whole tblug aud
gasped. Sherwood,' clerk at the desk,
and Bingham, Brentwood' mayor,
were also witnesses, and tbe atory
spread. Here was a man who not only
wasn't afraid of a mob, but even dared
tbe press, and tbe man who can do
that in this land of freedom takea his
life In bis hands.
"You've cooked your goose," said
Boniface sadly, for lie bad grown to
like Langdon more than a little and to
feel for. blm deeply In bis loneliness.
"Tou've made an enemy of tbe most
powerful newspaper man west of Oma
ha."
But he hadn't. Armstrong was poor;
be was tbe servant of tbe stockholders
and tbey of the Seattle; be couldn't af
ford to throw up his job aud see bis
wife and children ruffer, bet be had a
conscience. lie kuew that Laugdou
waa right aud Tbe Banner wrong. He
wa cut to tbe quick by Langdon' con
tempt but tbe man In blm overcame
the sense of Indignity, and, putting
himself In Langdou's place and asking
himself what be would bave felt aud
said, he went back to bis office raging.
not at Langdon, but at fate. Be bud
seen much of Melville during that olil
cer's brief sty; ho knew bis reputa
tion and the atory of his spotless life
and soldierly career; be knew of Mel-
Tllle'a sympathy for Langdon and bad
heard Melville's high eucomlum of
Langdon as an officer and a ?entleuiuu
he waa filled witb admiration of Lang
don's conduct at tbe time of the riots
and had then referred to him In tortus
of unstinted praise; but, that tanker
ended. The Banner had to return to tbe
paths of policy dictated by its owners.
He actually thought ',bat bis assurance
of personal liking fo Langdon ought
to compensate for tbe harsh things
said of blm In Tbe Banner and was
stung when it didn't But at heart be
could not but admire Langdon for his
square, straightforward response. It
was a revelation, an eye opener. It
set blm to thinking of the other side,
not the paper side, of the question, and
then be wished that be had that month
to live over again. Tburo should be no
more abuse of Langdon In Tbe Banner
If be could help It
And so there was a certain reaction
in favor of Langdon. Sodje of tbe rifles
resigned their warrants, secured their
discharges and then act to work to
raise another companj for Laugdon to
drill. The men were easily found.
Seventy stalwart youug fellows sign
ed the petition and brought It to Lung
don to add bis name. Then It went to
the governor. There were vacancies In
tDe regiment. A compauy was muster-
ea in at Aeotua; another, made up
mainly of farmer boys, at Gunnison
Junction. But some strauge, occult lu
fluence svvnied against th would be
Brentwood Light guard. Th petition
hung Ore. State Senator Si pie and
Representative Carter sai l that tbey
would see to It that the Light guard
was duly admitted, but tbey didn't
Meantime tbe rides prospered, as a so
cial orgsnlxatlou at least: took In a
number of honorary members at $50
apiece, got a ."swell" uniform, gave a
series of most successful dancing par
ties and what they termed exhibition
drills, where tbe clockwork precision
itn which some 30 of tbelr number
executed tbe loadings and firings In
unison evoked tumultuous applause.
It prompted tbe rifles to Issue a chal

up a cabal against blm among tbe
Grays, but be bad Lad a two weeks'

panies from Minnesota, Iowa and Kan

stood firm. Then the Brentwood
strove to hedge and to limit the con
test to companies that "bad uot re
ceived professional assistance," but
that reacted upon themselves. Tbeu
The Suu was inspired to see what it
could do to stir up a strike against
Laugdon In the yards of tbe Big Horn,
where there must be men who rebelled
against tbe suiiervlsiou of a strict, sol
dier, bred overseer. There were, but
they were lu the minority, aud tbe
three who started and circulated a pa
per calling for Laugdou's dismissal or
a strlku were suddenly, by Cbunulug'o
order, hauled up before tbe superin
tendent aud "given the sack." Then

aud tbe offer was declined. In April
tbe great drill came off. Tbe flag of
tbe rilles wus trailed iu tbe dust. Tbey
were uot even "placid" by the Judges,
and tbe great prise was wou lu almost
walkover by the Gunnison Grays.
Time and again Laugdon bad receiv
ed warning from the police that there
was a gang on the south aide ever
watching for a chance to "do blm up"
and from mine bust of tbe Brentwood
that there were influential ineu on the
north side, potent lu the couucil of the
Big Horn, who would hurt blm if tbey
could. One day there came a curt sum
mons from a local lawyer to tbe effect
that bills to tbe amouut of $330 bad
been placed In bis bauds for collection
and calling npuu him to take Immedi

however, to convince blm that two of
the bills were tbose of dealer at Paw
nee to whom be bad regularly aud con
sclentlously been paylug $10 a month
apiece. Tbe inference was plain. Na
than bad bought iu th balance of the
claims and sent them tbrougb Perrl
go' bank for collection. In hla trouble
Langdon wrote to Cbannlng, but no
answer came. Twice the latter bad
written him that tbe president and cer
tain directors had spoken to blm about
Mr. Langdou's debts. It was evident
that some enemy was bounding blm,
but so long us Channlng was "on deck,"
as be wrote to Langdon, he could
count on bis support
But Channlng wa no longer on deck,
The Incessant brain work, tbe strain,
tbe immeuse labor devolving on au ac
tive official of tbe road whose business
outdid its resources, had finally told.
Nervous prostration aud collapse had
ensued, and Channlng was downed at
last.
It wa the first week in May and
with 'all nature sweet and smiling
about him. .Eric Langdon came up
from Guuulson on tbe early morning
freight hla heart heavy as lead. He
had spent the early hours of th pre
vious night, Friday, working bard with
the Gray, for tbelr ambition waa
boundless now. and tbey bad entered
for a competition in an adjoining state.
Tbe nlgbt iuelf be had spent trying to
sleep under tbe roof of bis friend, the
station agent, but sleep would not
come, and twice be arose aud went out
and walked tbe platform under tbe
glistening stars. On Monday, said tbe
lawyer, that money must be paid.
Laugdon bad no appetite for breakfast
He took a cup of coffee at the station
restaurant on reaching Brentwood and.
though it wus barely 0 o'clock, went to
his office. Janitor aud watchmen not

his early hours. Early aa tbey were,
some one hud been there earlier. Tbe
safe door stood open tbe cash waa
gone.
CHAPTER XL
There are two kinds of men who de
serve to be held lu abhorrence those
who are forever saying mean things
about their fellow and those forever
hearing them. Tbe first are active nils-
chief makers, tbe second passive. Tbe
first are generally regarded as tbe
more dangerous and objectionable.
But aa tbe result of some 20 rears
study I am constrained to believe tbe
second tbe worst Tbe first ha at
least tbe courage of bis convictions
and say wh,at he I mean enough to
think. Tbe second lack even that de
gree of perTJWtl pluck and. not darng
to say tbe slander himself, gives It
birth under tbe cloak of "1 beard."
How many of yon who read have fail
ed to meet tbe man who draws his
chair close to yours and confidentially
begins: "Say. what's this abont Jim,,,.
