How Cordon Changed Ait-ck.
"gf" T was crowing light in the oast
j when O'Xeil returned to his hotel,
jil Inn ho leit mi fatigue, a;:, he
laughed from the pure joy of liv
1.1 for 111 -a dream seen.ed coming true.
Meanwhile there w,ere strenuous hap

their life savings, anl i hocked a walk
out. The following morning th' re was
groat joy at, the roeipt of a cablegram
aimnfm insr thr.t O'Xeil and Illis had
formed a working agreement. Natalie,
who had been sent by Gordon to Omar
to watch developments, returned with
the news of O'Xeil's latest secret alli
ai''o. whereat Gordon declared that
O'Xeil had "the luck of the devil.'
O'Xeil's return to Omar was tri
umphal. All his lieutenants gathered
to meet him at the pier, and the sincer
ity of their welcome stirred him deeply.
His arrangements with UILs had taken
time; he had been delayed at Seattle by
bridge details and the placing of steel
cntracts. He had worked swiftly and
with such absorption that he had paid
little heed to the rumors of Gordon's
latest activities, of the new venture
which Lis own success had Inspired he
knew only the bare outline. He had
learned enough, however, to arouse his
curiosity, and as soon as the first con
fusion of: his arrival at the front was
over he ak for news.
"Haven't you read the papers?" in
quired Happy Tom. He had attached
himself to O'Xeil at the moment of his
stepping ashore, and now followed him
to headqu'iarters with an air of melan-cliob.-
satisfaction iu mere physical
nearness to Lis chief.
"I'.arely: O'Xeil confessed. "I've
been working twenty houis a day get
xixiz trmt steel unrrr motion.""" -"
Dr. ("ray said with conviction: "Gor
don is a remarkable man. It's a pity
lie s crooked."
"I think it's right lucky,',' declared
Tom. "He's smarter than us. and if
he wasn't handicapped by a total lack
of de' ency he'd beat us."
"After the storm," explained Gray,
"he moved, back to Hope, and we
thought he'd made his last bow. but
in souse way ho got the idea that the
trust was back of us."
"So I judged from the little I read."
"Weli, we didn't undeceive him, of
course. His first move wa an attack
through the press in the shape of a
broadside against the Ileidlemanns. It
fair'y took our breaths. It appeared
in the Cortex Courier and all over the
s::.tes. we hear a letter of defiance to
Herman lleidlemanu. It declared that
the trust was up to Its old tricks here
in Alaska had gobbled the copper;
Lad the al tied up under secret agree
menus and was trying to pet poises
si1 n of all th coast i-mge passes and
denies the old story. Rut the man
can write. That article caused a stir."
"I saw it."
"Naturally the Cortez people ate it
up. They're sore at the trust for leav
ing their town and at us for building
Omar. ' Then Gordon called a mass
meetincr. and some of us went up to
watch the fireworks. I've never seen
anything quite like that meeting.
Every man, woman and child in the
city was there, and they hissed us
when we came In. Gordon knew what
he was about, and he was in line voice.
He told them Cortez was the logical
point of entry to the interior of Alaska
Tand outdit to have nil the tratlic. He
fired their animosity toward the trust
and accused us of basely selling out to
it. Then he broached a project to
build, by local subscription, a narrow
gauge electric line from Cortez. utiliz
ing the waterfalls for power. The
i Ia caught on and went like wildfire.
The people cheered themselves hoarse
and pledged him over $100,'m.iO that
night Since then they have subscrib
ed as much more, and the town Is
crazy. Work has actually begun, and
they hope to reach the first 6ummit by
Christmas."
Slater broke In: "lie's a spellbinder,
all right. Ho made me hate the Ilei
dlemanns and detest myself for five
minutes. I wasn't even sure I liked
ycu. Murray."
"It's a wild scheme, of course," con
tinued the doctor, "but he's putting It
oer. The town council ha3 granted
him a ninety-nine year lease covering
o ery street. The roadbed is started,
and things are booming. Lots have
been staked all over the fiats, property
values are somersaulthig,everybody is
out of his head, and Gordon is a god.
All he does is organize new companies,
lie has bought a sawmill, a wharf, a
machine shop,' acres of real estate. He
has started a bank and a new hcteL
He has consolidated the barber shops,
and Joe talks bon roofing iji the
Hrpr 4L Brothers,
streets with glas and making the
town a series of arcades."
Slater half smiled evidence of a con
vulsiv? mirth within.
- "They've picked out a site for a uni
versity!" he said bitterly. "Cortez is
going to be a feat of learning and cul
ture. They're planning a park and a
place for an Alaskan world's fair and
a museum and a library. I've always
wondered who starts public libraries
it's 'nuts.' Iiut I didn't setose more
than one or two people got foolish that
way."
O'Xeil soon found that the accounts
he had received of Gordon's last at
tempt to recoup his fortunes were in
no way exaggerated. Cortez. long the
plaything of the railroad builders, had
been ripe for his touch. It rose in its
wounded civic pride and greeted Lis
appeal with frantic delight
Gordon perfectly understood thai
something more than vague accusa
tions were necessary' to bring the pub
lic to his support in sufficient numbers
to sweep him on to victory, and with
this in mind he laid crafty plans to
seize the Heidlemann grade. The trust
had ceased active work on its o!u
right of way and moved to Kyak. to be
sure, but it had not abandoned its
original route and. in fact, had main
tained a small crew at the first defile
outside of Cortez, known as Heaver
Canyon. Gordon reasoned shrewdly
that a struggle between the agents of
the tmst and the patriotic citizens of
the town would iford him precisely
the advertising he needed and give
point to his charge of unfair j lay
against the Ileidlemanns.
It was not difficult to incite his vic
tims to this act of robbery. On the
contrary, once he had made the sug
gestion, he had hard work to restrain
them until he h;J completed his prep
arations. These preparations were
simple. They consisted in writing and
xaailing to every newspaper of conse
quence a highly colored account of the
rai'road struggle. These mimeograph
ed stories were posted from Seattle in
time for them to reach their destina
tions on the date set for the seizure
of the grade.
It was an ingenious publicity move,
worthy of a theatrical press agent, ami
it succeeded beyond the prom iter's
fondest expectations too mil. in fact,
for it drove the trust in desperation to
an alliance with the S. II." and X".
The day set for the demonstration
came; the citizens of Cortez boldly
marched into Beaver canyon to-take
possession of the old Heidlemann
workings, but it appeared that they
had reckoned prematurely. A handful
of grim faced trust employees warned
them back; there was a rush, some
rough work on the part of the aggres
sors, and then the guards brought their
weapons into play. The result afford
ed Gordon far more sensational mate
rial than he Lad hoped for; one citizen
was killed and five others were badly
wounded. Cortez, dazed and horror
stricken, arose in her wrath and de
scended upon the assassins;"' lynch
ings were planned and mobs threat
ened the local jail, until soldiers were
hurried thither and martial law was
declared.
Of course the wires were burdened
with the accounts; the reading public of
the States awoke to the fai t that a bit
ter strife was waging hi the north be
tween honest miners and the soulless
Heidlemann syndicate. Gordon's pre
viously written and carefully colored
stories of the clash were printed far
and wide. Editorials Lrothed indigna
tion at such lawlessness and pointed to
the Cortez Home railway as a com
mendable effort to destroy the Heidle
mann throttle hold upon the northland.
Stock subscriptions came in a deluge
which fairly engulfed Gordon's Seattle
office force.
During this brief white hot campaign
the promoter had been actuated as
much by his senseless hatred of O'Xeil
as by lust of glory and gain, and it
was with no little satisfaction that he
returned to Alaska conscious of having
dealt a telling blow to his enemy. He
sent Xatalie to Omar on another visit
in order that he might hear at first
hand how O'Xeil took the matter.
But his complacency received a shock
when the girl returned. He Lad no
need to question her.
"Encle Curtis," she began excitedly,
"you ought to stop these terrible uews
paier stories about Mr. O'Xeil and the
trust."
"Stop them? My dear, what do you
mean?"
"He didn't sell out to the trust. lie
has nothing; to do with it."
"What?" Gordon's incredulity was
a challenge.
"He sold to an Englishman named
Illis. They seem to be amused by
your mistake over there at Omar, but
I think some of the things printed are
positively criminal. I knew you'd
want the truth"
"The truth, yes. But this can't be
true," stammered Gordon.
"It is. Mr. O'Xeil did try to interest
the Heidlemanns. but they wouldn't
have anything to do with him. and the
S. R. and X. was going to smash when
Mr. Illis came along barely in time.
It "was too exciting and dramatic for
anything the way Mr. O'Xeil found
him .when he was in hiding"
"Ending?"
"Yes. There was something about
blackmail or a secret arrangement be
tween Mr. Illis and the Yukon river
lines. I couldn't understand just what
it was. but anyhow Murray took ad
vantage of it and saved the X'orth
Pass and the S. R. and X. at the same
time.
"It was really a perfect'y won
derful stroke of genius. I determined
at once that you should stop the -o lies
und correct the general idea that ho is
in the pay of the trust. Why. he went
to Cortez last week, and they threaten
ed Lis life!"
Mrs. Gordon, who had listened, said
quietly: "Don't blame Curtis for that
That bloody affray at Beaver canyo:.
has made Cortez bitter against every
one connected with the Ileidlemanns."
"What about this blackmail:" said
her husband, upon whose ear the word
had made a welcome impression. "I
don't understand what yon mean by
O'Xeil's 'saving' the North Pass and
his own road at the same time nor
Illis' being in hiding."
"Neither do I," Natalie confessed,
"but I know you have made a mistake
that ought to be set right."
"Why doesn't he came out with the
truth?"
"The whole thing is secret."
"Why?"
Natalie shrugged hopelessly, and
Gordon lost himself in frowning
thought.
"Tins is amazing," he said brusquely
after a moment. "It's vital. It. a fleets

Gordon.
all my plans. I must know everything
at once."
"I'm sorry I paid so little attention."
"Xever mind. Try it again and be
diplomatic. If O'Xeil won't tell you.
question Appleton. You can wind him
around your fingers easily enough. I
am sure."
" The girl eyed him jritli a quick
change of expression.
"Isn't it enough to know that the
trust has nothing to do with the S. R.
and X?"
"Nor he declared impatiently. "I
must know the whole inside of this
secret understanding this blackmail or
whatever it is."
"Then I'm sorry."
"Come! Don't bo silly. You can do
me a great service."
"You said you no longer disliked
Mr. O'Xeil and that he couldn't harm
you."
"Well, well! Must I explain the
whys and wherefores of every move I
make?"
"It would be spying if I went back.
The matter is confidential. I know
that."
"Will you do as I ask?" he de
manded. Xatalie answered him firmly: "No! I
told you what I did tell only so that
yon might correct"
"You rebel, ch?" Gordon spoke out
furiously.
He strode angrily from the room,
leaving Xatalie staring out upon the
bleak fall scene, her shoulders very
straight, her breast heaving. Gloria
did not venture to address her.
Fortunately for the peace of all con
cerned, Gordon left for Seattle on the
next steamer. Neither of the women
believed that Xatalie's fragmentary
revelation was the cause of his depart
ure: but, once In touch ith outside
affairs, he lost no time in running
down the clews he had gathered,' and
it was not long before he had learned
enough to piece the truth together.
Then he once more brought his mimeo
graph into use.

structure itself well begun. He Lad

"Who gave this out?" he inquired in

Slater shrugged. "It's in the Cortez

"Maybe he uncovered it back there

Murray shook his Lead. "Nobody
