CHAPTER- XII.
THE LAW BTEPS IN.
li'
ERE they come again!" called
Llze as the hurry of feet
along the walk threatened
another attack. Ross Cava-
nagh again drew bis revolver and
tood at guard, and Llze, recovering
her own weapon, took a place by his
side.
With the strength of a bear the new
assailant shook the bolted door. "Let
me In!" he roared.
"It's dud!" culled young Gregg. "Go
way, you chump!"
"Let me in or I'll smash this door!"
retorted Gregg.
"You smash that door, old Bullfrog,"
announced Llze, "and I'll carry one of
your lungs away. If you want to get
in here you hunt up the judge of this
town and the constable."
The old rancher muttered a fierce
curse, while Ross explained the situa
tion. "I'm as eager to get rid of these
culprits as any one can be, but they
miust be taken by proper authority.
Bring a writ from the magistrate and
you may have them and welcome."
Gregg went away without further
word, and Llze said: "He'll find Hlg
ley If he's iii town, and he is In town,
for I saw him this afternoon. He's
biding out to save himself trouble."
; Lee Virginia, with an understanding
of what the runger bad endured, ask
d: "Can't ' get you something to eat?
lWould you like some coffee?"
"I would Indeed," he answered, and
bis tone pleased her.
She hurried away to get It, while
Cavanngh disposed his prisoners be
hind a couple of tables in the corner.
"I guess you're in for a night of it,"
be remarked grimly, "so make your
selves as comfortable as you can
Perhaps your experience may be a
discouragement to others of your
kiad.M
; Lee returned soon with a pot of
fresh coffee and some sandwiches, the
lght of which roused young Gregg to
the Impudent remark: '"Well, notice
that! Aud we're left out!" But Ed
wards shrank into the shadow, as if
the light hurt him.
Ross thunked Lee formally, but
there was more than gratitude la his
glance, aud she turned away to hldo
her face from other eyes. Strange
place it was for the blooming of love'u
roses, but they were in her cheeks as
she faced her mother, and Llze, with
fresh acknowledgment of her beauty,
broke out again: "Well, this settles it.
I'm going to get out of this town,
dearie. I'm done. This ends the cat
tle country for me. I ought to have
turned you back the day yon landed
here."
The feet halted. A sharp rap sound
ed on the door.
I "Who's there?" demanded Llze.
I "The law!" replied a wheezy voice.
"Open in the name of the law!"
i "It's old Hlgley," announced Llze.
"Open the door, Ross."
"Come in, law," she colled ironical
ly as the Justice appeared. "You look
kind of mice eaten, but you're all the
law this bin me town con sport. Come
In and do your duty."
Hlgley (a tall man with a rusty
brown beard, very much on his dig
nity) entered the room, followed by a
short, bullet headed citizen in a rum
pled blue suit with a big star on his
t.renst. Behind on the sidewalk Bal
lard and a dozen of his gang could b
eon. Sam Gregg, the moving cause of
this resurrection of law and order, fol
lowed the constable. Hlgley opened
upon Cavanagh. "Well, sir, whnt's all
this row? What's your charge against
these men?"
i "Killing mountain sheep. I caught
them with the head of a big ram upon
their pack."
"Make him show his commission,"
jbouted Gregg. "lie's never been com
missioned. He's no gome warden."
Hlgley hemmed. "I ah oh. his au
thorlty is all right. Sam: I've seen It
If he can prove that these men killed
the sheep we'll have to act."
1 Cavanagh briefly relnted how he hao
captured the men on the trail. "Th(
(head of the ram Is at the livery ban
iwlth my horse."
"now about that?" ask'ed nigley
turning to Joe.
I "I guess that's right," replied the In
oient youth. "We killed the 'beep all
right,"
Hlgley wns In a corner. He dldu t
like to offend Gregg, and yet the case
was plain. He met the Issue blandly.
"Marshnl, take these men Into cus
tody." Then to Ross: "We'll relieve
you of your care, Mr. Cnvanngh. You
may appear tomorrow at 9."
It was a farcical ending to a very ar
duous thirty-six hour campaign, and
Ross, feeling like a man who, having
rolled a huge stone to the top of a hill
has been ordered to drop It. said, "1
Insist on the maximum penalty of the
law, Justice Hlgley, especially for this
mnn!" He lndlcntod Joe Gregg.
"No more Nueaklnir, Hlgley," added
Llze, uttering her distrust in blunt
phrase. 'olT put these" men Through
or I'll make you trouble."
Hlgley turned and with unsteady
solemnity 6aluted. 'Tear uot my gov.
eminent, madam." said he and so
made exit.
After the door had closed behind
them Cavanngh bitterly complained
"I've delivered my prisoners over iuto
the bauds of their friends. I feel lik
a fool. What assurance hav I that
they will ever be punished?"
"You have Higley's word, retorted
Llze, with Ironic Inflection. "He'll
flue 'em ns much as $10 apiece and
confiscate the head, which is worth
fifty."
"No matter what happens now,
you've done your duty," added Lee
Virginia with Intent to comfort him.
Llze, now that the stress of the bat
tle was over, fell a-tremble. "I reckon
111 have to go to bed," she admitted.
"I'm all In. This night service la
wearing."
She did indeed resemble the wreck
of a woman as she lay out upon her
bed, her hands twitching, her eyes
closed, and Ross was profoundly
alarmed. "You need the doctor," he
urged. "Let me bring him."
"No," she said huskily, but with de
cision; "I'm only tired. I'll be all
right soon. Send the people away.
Tell 'era to go to bed."
For half an hour Cavanngh remain
ed in the room waiting to see If the
doctor's services would be required,
but at the cud of that time, as she
had apparently fallen asleep, he rose
and tiptoed out Into the hall.
Lee followed, and they faced each
other in such intimacy as the ship
wrecked feel after the rescue.
When they were quite alone Lee
said, "You must not go out into the
streets tonight."
"There's no danger. These hoodlums
would not dare to attack me."
"Nevertheless you shall not go!" she
declared. "Wolt a moment," she com
ninnded and re-entered her mother's
room.
As he stood there at Lize Wether
ford's door and his mind went back
over her brave deed, which had gone
far to atone for her vulgarity, his re
spect for her deepened. Lee Virginia
opened the door and stepped out close
beside him.
"Her breathing is quieter," she whis
pered. "I think she's going to sleep.
It's been a terrible night! You must
be horribly tired. I will And you some
place to sleep. Please don't go till aft
er breakfast," she smiled wanly. "I
may need you."
He understood. "What did the doc
tor say?"
"He said mother was In a very low
state of vitality and that she must be
very careful, which was easy enough
to say. But how can I get her to rest
and to diet? You have seen how little
she cares for the doctor's orders. He
told her not to touch alcohol."
"She Is more like a man than a worn
an," he answered.
She led the way iuto the small sit
ting room which lay at the front of
"WLL, NOTICB THAT I AND WK'RR LEFT
OUT."
the house and directly opposite the
door of bcr own room. It was filled
with shabby parlor furniture, and In
one corner stood a worn couch. "I'm
sorry, but I can offer nothing bet
ter," she said. "Every bed Is taken,
but I have plenty of blankets."
There was something delightfully
suggestive In being thus waited upon
by a young and handsome woman, and
the ranger submitted to it with the
awkward grace of one unaccustomed
to feminine cnre.
They faced each other in silence,
each tilled with the same delicious
sense of weakness, of danger, reluc
tant to say good night, longing for the
closer touch which dawning love de
mantled, and yet something in tbo girl
defended her, defeated him.
"You must call me If I con be of
any help," he repeated, and his voice
was tremulous with feeling.
"I will do so," she answered.
Still they did not part. Ills voice
was very tender as he said: "I don't
like to see you exposed to such expe'
rlences. It angers me to think that
the worst of these loafers, these
drunken beasts, can glare at yon, can
peak "to you. They have no right' 0
breathe the Bume air with one like
you."
She did r)t smile at this. Ills voice,
bis eyes, vere filled with the gravity
of the lover whose passion Is not bu
morons. Against bis training, his
Judgment, be was being drawn Into
closer and closer union with thl
doughter of violence, and he added
"You may not see me In the morn
Ing."
"You must not go without seeing my
mother. You must have your break
fast with us. It hurt us to think you
didn't come to us for supper."
Her words meant little, but the look
In her eyes, tho music In her voice,
made hlrn shiver. He stammered: "I
I must. return to my duties tomor
row. 1 shouTiI goTmck tonight."
"ou mustn't do that. ou can t do
that. You are to appear before the
ludge. '
He smiled. "That is true. I'd for
gotteu that."
Radiant with relief, she extended
her hand. "Good night, tiled. You
must sleep."
He took her hand and drew her to
ward him; then, perceiving both won
der and fear in her eyes, he conquered
himself. "Good nleht" be repeated.
dropping her hand, but his voice was
husky with Its passion.

COSSON SCORES
EXPRESSPEOPLE
Urges Slates to Combine In At
tack on Excessive Rates.
HAVE STIFLED COMPETITION.
Charges That Rates Havt Increased
Ten to Forty Per Cent in Ten Yean.
Talks at Meeting of Attorneys Gen
eral at Salt Lake.
Des Moines, June 23. In a speech
delivered Ui Salt Lake to the attor
neys general of the country, assem
bled in annual convention, Attorney
General George Cosson urges the
States to combine forces In a general
ttack upon express rates, which he
asserts are excessive and unjust.
He declares that the task of prying
into the business and operation of an
express company Is a task which be
wilders and confuses. Detailed in
formation must be had, he says, and
this can best be secured by coopera
tion of tho states, working with the
courts, railway commissions and the
interstate commerce commission.
He avers that the express companies
have long been enjoying a monopoly,
have stifled competltio and have In
creased rates without regard for the
middleman. Ho asserts that monstrous
salaries are being paid officers of the
companies and that enormous profits,
"excessive," he says, are being real
ized. He says also that the companies,
when any state seeks to probe their
business and reduce rates, "complain
bitterly and Ironically of any action
taken by tho states."
He charges that within the past ten
years the express companies have in
creased the state rates from 10 per
cent to 40 per cent.
He asserts that while the railway
companies, bowing to the demands of
the people for lower rates, have done
a little towards meeting the demands
of the public, not much can be expect
ed of the express companies along this
line.
Hence bo recommends Join action
by the states, In one long general at
tack and probe into the express com
pany business.

Finance Committee Makes in
verse Report on Measure.
MEANS LONG FIGHT OX FLGG1
Republican Leaders Place Responsible
ity on Insurgents and Democrat
Number of Other Bills to Be Intro,
duced in Upper House.
Washington, June 23. An already
badly tangled situation in the senate
was still further complicated when tho
senate finance committee decided to
throw the woolen revision and the o
called farmers' free list bills, recently
passed by the Democratic house, Into
the open senate at once to take their
chances along with Canadian reclproo
ity. Both measures, however, received
formal adverse committee reports.
The committee refused to take rt
sponsiblllty for reporting in detail 0
these measures at any time and de
cided to cast the burdon of senate leg
islation on the coalition of Democrats
and Insurgent Republicans suddenly
brought about when the wool bill cam
from the house. The finance commit
tee had been Instructed to report tho
wool bill by July 10. It was reported
that Senator Clapp proposed to offer
a resolution of Instruction as to the
free list bill, but the committee fore
stalled such action.
"It has boon demonstrated that the
Republicans no longer are In control
of the senate and responsibility ha
been taken from them." This state
ment from Senator Penrose (Pa.),
chairman of tho once all powerful com.
mltteo on finance, reflected the chaotle
condltlona in the senate as a rosult ol
the fight over tne nouse wooi out,
wool
which brought about a coalition Ol
Democrats and progressive Republic
an.
Interest In the senate situation ce
ters largely about the fate of the C
nadlan reciprocity agreement.
Indorsing Senator Penrose' state
ment that the Republican party no
longer was responsible for the conduct
of nffalrB In tho senate, Senator Lode
said he was glad tho responsibility
was to be placed where It belonged.
All guesses as to tho possible date
of adjournment, it Is now admitted
re worse than useless.
Senators McCumber, Oalllnger and
Rtnoot were among the Republican!
who counselled deliberation In th
committee.
Insurgents Ready for Fight
"The insurgents are ready for the
fight." said Senator Bristow, who
stood outside of tho finance commit
tee rooms while the committee was la
session. "We are ready with rerisloo
bills. Senator I Follette has wool
ens and cottons. Senator Cummins ha
stol, and I am ready with sugar and
lead. These bills take, off dutlee
which admittedly ar excessive oo
trust-controlled products.
"Now the question Is what will the
president do? If he Is wise, he will
accept our bills as amendments to tho
reciprocity mensure. We can go o
fore the country on this proposition
nnd fight It out."
Regardless of the action taken b
tho flnnnce committee, the real strut
