In San Francisco, and feels confident at his ability. Pedro welcomes htr back to 1 Cabril lo Rancho but something seems wrong. Chapter 20 Rebellion tULIANO stood in the little en- trance court, end behind him. white of face, hostile or eye, dressed in shabby clothes, atood the personnel of El Cabrillo Rancho. "So this is the welcome you five me," said Constance. Juliano straightened. "Si, sefi orita," he agreed, and the heads behind him nodded emphatically. "Juliano, what is wrong? Why are you acting in this way? You were so kind when I went away, are you sorry I've returned?" "You weesh to know," stated Juliana "But no. I tell you. "For more than one hundred year, our people have herd the cattle of the Cabrillos. For them we have work weeth the heart and the hand. Then Pedro he say to ua that rou will sell to him and they will turn thees place to cows . . . cows weeui mux, ne spat "Then you come and we think: thees Senorita Conchita Cabrillo, she is our saviour. She will save us our place in the sun. She will keen our horses that we may herd the cattle on the golden hills of El Cabrillo, and we are made bappy. "We would have worked weeth the hand for Pedro, who is bot a pringo, bot when we learn that thees senorita uoncnita say we are to be shovelers of debris; tneelkers of cows, we say no. "She then is not one true Ct- brillo. We have no welcome for one who is not a Cabrillo. And Juliano folded his arms across his chest and defied her with his eyes. Constance looked at him and tried to stifle the hysterical laughter bubbling up. She was dreaming. She'd wandered into a wild and woolly western film by mistake. "Let me get this straight she said. "You would work for the Taylors because they are gringos and don't know any better, but you refuse to work for me be cause by turning this place into a dairy ranch, I am proving I'm not a Cabrillo and so dempan the Dame, the place, and you." "Sir confirmed Juliano, and l." echoed the others. ' "I would make of suggestion," continued Juliano smoothly, "that the senorita would return to the senora and let the Don Ca brillo, who is the man of thees family, make attend to thees rancho." Don Cabrillo. Constance felt a red anger, half-Mahoney, half Cabrillo, sweep over her. So Don, who hadn't cared to visit the ranch, who hadn't been there since child, had more influence over these people than did she who was trying to save it for the Cabrillos. Worship Of The Past' ALL of the bitterness she had tasted in that past two months was on Constance'a lips as she lashed at the people before her. "You say I am not a Cabrilo. I'm not I'm a Mahoney. I'm a throwback from the old Irishman who aaved this land for your peo ple once. I'm trying to save it for you again. "I'm going to do. In my day, what Michael Mahoney did in his, restock the ranch in cattle best fitted to current conditions. "You outriders know we haven't enough grazing land for the cattle we run. You, all of you, should know that if we cut down our run it will mean that some of you will have to go outside to make living. Can you? Do you know what it means to have to pa rent and buy food? "You pretend a loyalty to the Cabrillos. Do you want them to suffer for your stubbornness? Are you so crystallised in your fa natic worship of the past that you would starve, see EI Cabrillo de nuded of its last blade of grass, watch the cattle die, merely to save your face? "Well, I won't! "I've had to bartpr my future for this land, and I'm going to fight through and save it "Now. you men who are men, back to the herds you left un tended, and the rest of you, back to your posts. "And those of you who are not men ... get off El Cabrillo, for good." Some of the old rldera lingered for translations and were urged out by those who understood English. The children had scurred at the first blast. Only Dolores, as tearful as her name, and Maria, the militant, remained. "Senorita MicheeL wheezed Maria, waddling up. "you have make the speech well. I go now to knock the hell into Beeg Juan." Constance laughed hysterically. "Atta-Mana," she commended. "We women will run the ranch if the men fall down on us." Constance started for her room, Dolores following. "How many do you think will leave, Dolores?" she asked. "But not one," moaned Dolo res. "The older ones will stay be cause thees is their home and you make the talk like the hot blooded Cabrillo. The young ones they will stay because Pedro he say he will make them crawl rff on their nose if they try the fonny business." Constance faced the mirror to Japs Negligent In Sinking Barge Los Angeles, Sept. 7 Jl A eornner's Jury today declared operate rs of the Japanese f re ig ti er Saklto Marti were guilty of "extreme negligence" In run ning down and sinking the lull the moon Bo wmn i find smile on her lip . for Pedro. From the opened wardrobe, where Dolores, to whom keys had been mailed, had hung her clothes, Constance chose a long dinner dress of garnet velvet and with it wore an heirloom of the Cabrillos, a necklace of dull gold squares inset with garnets and seed pearls. Dolores stood back In rapt ad miration. "F-ef you could bot look like thees when you make the spesk, th-y would have knelt at the feet before you." she mur mured. Constance paid little attention to the thoueht beneath this, until she was alone with Meg. Meg had gathered her into warm arms and Constance had found nothing in congruous in a Cabrillo being so greeted by i "house-keep." 'Divil take them, mutterea Mee. when Constance had laugh ingly told of Dolores' doubtful compliment. "Don't they know them feudal times are dead? They have to worship, do they? Well, let them find out a lady's a lady in heart and not in coverings. these days." Gold Locket THE Taylor gave Constance A the holiday she should have had with her own family; the welcome the people of El Ca brillo should have given her. There was the dinner, with Meg hovering over her, seeing she had the best of everything, and then the Christmas tree disgorged gifts. A turtle necked sweater to match the beret, knitted by Meg. A scarlet poncho and billed cap from Peter Senior, and from Pedro, a long jeweler's box. Constance opened it slowly and frowned a little. It contained an old-fashioned gold chain with a golden heart for a locket. "Open it," prompted Meg. Constance touched the snap and two faces were revealed, a beard ed man and a prim, rosy-cheeked woman. The man looked like someone she knew. "Michael Mahoney and his bride, Sary," explained old Pe ter. "Son found it in San Fran cisco some time back, bought tt thinking someone in the family might like it." Constance closed her eyes to hide the tears. She was the only one in the family who would have looked at it a second time and she loved it. She sensed then, what she later learned, that it had been pawned by a Cabrillo who had set no value on it "If you don t mind, she mur mured, "I'd like to cry ... just i little bit?" You do and I'll sing, threat ened Peter Senior, and burst into When Irish Eyes ore Smiling. He led Constance to the piano, piled music before her, then sat down, his injured leg out before him, to rumble his old, favorite songs. An hour before the huge fire place followed, Constance and Pe ter lay lor talking or the rancn. Pedro sitting back in the shad ows, silent 'Of course rm still manager here," Taylor warned her once. but I won't over-ride you if you don't try to over-ride me. I like that Pederscn. He spent a few days here looking over the place, alter you tirst wrote mm. well work together. Pedro is driving me down to San Francisco next week. I in tend getting top prices on the cattle before we send them out That should offset :he incoming nereis to a good degree. He went on talking and Con stance was puzzled. The man seemed as interested In the re placement and the future of the ranch, as he would have been had she sold to him. Mr. Taylor." she asked sud denly, "why dittn't you tell us of the proposed railroad right-of-way through the ranch?" Peter Taylor rumbled under his breath, then looked at his son and sighed. "Well, Michael, it was this way. They bargained with me. They wanted to bring the line in from Fuller's Junction. That wouldn't have touched th ranch proper and we couldn't have used the Beachport depot. So I promised, if they'd come in from the north instead, I'd give them the right of way; providing, of course, they awung the line as far south as the proposed dairy unit, and allowed us the use of the line." "Oh." breathed Constance, and thought a moment. "How much would they have paid for risht of way from the south?" woman t run over five thou sand, the way the land runs, and mat wouldn t pay for the trucks we'd need, nor cover the extra handling. This way. we can shoot straight Into San Francisco with the bulk of the goods. The cream can go straight to Beachport without doubling back from Ful ler's Junction." Then they hadn't been trvlna to "hold out" cn the Cabrillos. Her face brightened, then cloud ed and she went over to Mr. Tay lor, her hand outstretched. I'm sorry. 1 felt 1 was justified in using your plans because you were double-crossing me about the right of way. Now it's too late." "Oh. that's all right. Michael." he grufted. "We'll stick around for a couple of years and see you get your feet under you, then we'll go ell somewhere. Kinds like this p'ace. thouch. I'm get ting old. Michael, doesn't matter much about me.
