J. MONTAGUE SMITH, LATE OF LAWRENCEVILLE, DISCOV
ERS THAT AS "JOHN SMITH," A CONSTRUCTION CAMP
WORKER, HE CANT CONCEAL HIS PAST LIFE
8ynopsl J. Montague Smith, cashier of the Lawrenccvlllo Hank
and TruHt company, bachelor society leader engaged to marry Verda
Itlchlander, heiress, Is wrongfully accused of dishonesty by Wntrous
Dunham, bin employer, and urged to be a scapegoat for the crooked
accuser. Smith Htrlkes Dunham, leaves hlui for dead and flues the
Rtute. He turns up " tramp some time later at un Irrigation dam con
Htructlon camp In the llocky mountains and as John Smith gets a rough
Job.
CHAPTER IV Continued.
'Tin afraid he'd have to loosen up
on his record a little before we could
bring him In here. Badly as we're
needing a money man, wo enn hardly
afford to put a 'John Smith' Into the
Hnddlc at least not without knowing
what his other name used to be."
"No; of courso not. I guess, after
all, he's only a 'lame duck,' like a good
many of tho rest of them. Day beforo
yesterday, Burdell, tho deputy nherlfT,
was out at tho camp looking the gangs
over for tho fellow who broke Into
Lannlgan's plnco last Saturday night.
When ho came Into tho olllce Smith
was busy with nn estimate, and Bur
dell went up and touched him on the
shoulder, Just to let him know that It
vns time to wako up. Suffering cats t
It took three of us to keep him from
breaking Burdell In two and throwing
him out of the window I"
"That looks rather bad," was the
president's comment. Col. Dexter Bald
win had been the first regularly elect
ed sheriff of Tlmanyont county In tho
early days and ho knew tho symptoms.
"Was Burdell wearing bis star where
It could be seen?"
Tho engineer nodded.
"What explanation did Smith make?"
"Oh, ho apologized like a gentleman,
and said he was subject to little nerv
ous attacks like that when anybody
touched him unexpectedly. He took
Burdell over to Pete SImm's shack sa
loon and bought htm a drink. Perkins,
the timekeeper, says he's going to get
a megaphone so he can give duo notice
In advance when he wants to call
Smith's attention".
Tho colonel pulled out a drawer In
the desk, found his box of diplomatic
cigars and passed It to tho engineer,
saying: "Light up a sure-enough good
one, and tell mo what you think Smith
has been doing back yonder In tho
other country."
Williams took tho cigar but he shied
ut the conundrum.
"Ask me something easy," he said,
"I've stacked up a few guesses. He's
.from tho middle West as tho Blblo
says, his 'speech betrayeth' him and
he's had a good Job of some kind ; the
kind that required him to keep nbrenst
of things. If there's anything In looks,
you'd say he wnsn't a thief or nn em
.bezzler, and yet It's pretty apparent
that he's been used to handling money
In chunks and making It work for Us
living. I've put It up that there's a
woman In It. Perhaps tho other fel
low got In his way, or came up behind
him nnd touched him unexpectedly, or
something of that sort. Anyway, I'm
not going to believe he's n crooked
crook until I have to."
Colonel Baldwin helped himself to
ono of his own cigars, nnd the talk
went back to business. In the Irri
gation project, Wllllnms wns a stock
'holder as well as chief of construction,
nnd Baldwin had more than once
ifound him a safe adviser. There wns
need for counsel. The Tlmauyonl
Ditch company was In a rather hazard
ous condition financially, and the presi
dent and Williams rarely met without
coming sooner or later to a threshing
out of tho situation.
Tho difficulties were those which ore
apt to confront n small and local enter
prise when It Is so unfortunato as to
get In tho way of larger undertakings.
.Colonel Baldwin, and a group of his
neighbors on the north sldo of the
Tlver, were reformed cattlemen and
liorso breeders. Instead of drifting
farther west In advance of tho Incom
ing Udo of population following tho
coming of the railroad, they had
availed themselves of their homestead
rights and had taken up much of tho
grass land In the favorablo valleys, Ir
rigating It at first with water taken
out of tho river In private or neighbor
hood ditches.
Later on camo tho sheep-feeding
period, and after that the utilization
of larger crop-raising arcus. Tho small
ditches proving tnndequnto for these,
Colonel Baldwin had formed a stock
company among his neighbors in tho
grass lunds nnd his friends In Brewster
for tho building of n substantial dum
In tho eastern hills, Tho project had
seemed simple enough In the beginning.
Tho stock was sold for cash and each
stockholder would bo a participating
user of tho water. Williams, who had
.been a United Slates reclamation man
beforo ho camo to tho Tlmanyonl, had
tando careful estimates, and tho stock
subscription provided money enough
to cover tho cost of tho dam and tho
main ditch.
Scribner's Sons)
After some little bargaining, tho
dam site nnd the overflow land for the
reservoir lake had been secured, nnd
the work was begun. Out of n clear
sky, however, came trouble and harass
ment. Allen holders of mining claims
In tho reservoir area turned up nnd
demanded damages. Some few home
steaders who hud promised to sign
quitclaims changed their minds nnd
sued for relief, and after tho work was
well under way It appeared that there
was a cloud on tho title of tho dam site
Itself. All of these clashlngs were car
ried Into court, nnd the rancher pro
moters found themselves confronting
Invisible enemies and obstacle-raisers
at every turn.
The legal fight, as they soon found
out, cost much money In every phase
of It; nnd now, when the dam was
scarcely more than half completed, n
practically empty treasury was star
ing them In tho face. There wns no
disguising the fact that a crisis wns
approaching, a financial crisis which
no ono among tho nmnteur promoters
was big enough to cope with.
"We've got to go In deeper, colonel;
there Is nothing else to do," wns the
engineer's summing up of the mntter nt
the close of the conference. "Tho snow
Is melting pretty rapidly on the range
now, nnd when we get the Juno rise
we'll stand to Ioso everything wo hnve
If wo can't keep every wheel turning
to get ready for tho high water."
Baldwin was holding his cigar be
tween his fingers and sco.wllng nt it as
if it had mortally offended him.
"Assessments on the stock, you
mean?" ho said. "I'm afraid our crowd
won't stand for thnt. A good pnrt of It
Is ready to lie down In tho harness
right now."
"now about a bond Issue?" asked
the engineer.
"Whnt do we, or nny of us, know
about bond Issues? Why, we knew
barely enough about the business nt
the start to chip In together nnd buy us
a charter and go to work on n plan n
little bit bigger than tho neighborhood
ditch Idea. You couldn't ilont bonds In
Tlmanyonl Pnrk, and we're none of us
foxy enough to go East and float 'em."
"I guess that's right, too," admitted
Williams. "Besides, with the stock
gone off the way It has, It would take
a mighty tlnc-hulred financial shnrp to
sell bonds."
"What's thnt?" demnnded the presi
dent. "Who's been selling nny stock?"
"Buck Gardner, for one; and thnt
man Boiling, up nt the head of Little
creek, for another. Maxwell, tho rnll
road superintendent, told mo nbout It,
nnd ho says that tho price offered, and
accepted, was thirty-nine."
"Dad burn u cuss with a yellow
streak In him I" rasped tho Missouri
colonel. "We hnd a fair nnd squnro
ngreement among ourselves thnt If nny
body got senred ho wns to glvo tho rest
of us a chance to buy him out. Who
bought from these welshers?"
"Maxwell didn't know that, no said
It was done through Klnzlo's bank.
From whnt I'vo heard on the outside,
I'm Inclined to suspect that Crawford
Stanton was the buyer."
"Stnnton, the real-estate man?"
"The same."
Agnln the president stared thought
fully at the glowlug end of his cigar.
"There's another of the confounded
mysteries," he growled. "Who Is Craw
ford Stanton, nnd what Is ho hero for?
I know what he advertises, but every
body In Brewster knows thnt he hasn't
mndo a living dollnr In rcnl estate
slnco ho camo here last summer. Wil
liams, do you know, I'm beginning to
suspect that there Is a mighty big
nigger In our little wood pllo?"
"You mean that all these stubborn
holdups have been bought and paid
for? You'll remember that Is what
Billy Starbuck tried to tell us when
tho first of tho missing nilnlng-clnim
owners began to shout at us."
"Starbuck hus n long head, and what
he doesn't know about mining claims In
this part of tho country wouldn't fill n
very big book. I remember ho said
thcro had nover been any prospecting
dono In tho upper Tlmanyonl gulches,
and now you'd think half tho peoplo In
tho United States had been nosing
around up thero with n pick and shovel
nt ono time or another. But it was a
thing thnt Starbuck told mo no longer
ago than yesterday that set mo to
thinking," Baldwin went on. "Ab you
know, tho old Escalauto Spanish grant
corners over In tho western part of this
park. When tho old grants wcro made,
they wcro ruled off on tho map with
out reference to mountnln ranges or
other nntural barriers."
Williams nodded.
"Well, as I say, ono corner of the Es
calantc reaches over the Hophras and
out Into the park, covering about eight
or ten square miles of tho territory
Just beyond us on our side of the river.
Starbuck told me yesterday that a big
Eastern colonization company had got
a hill throuch congress alienating that
tract."
The chief of construction bounded
out of his chair nnd began to walk the
llnor. "By George 1" he snld; nnd
again: "By George! That's what
we're up against, colonel l Where will
those fellows get the water for their
land? Thcro Is no site for n dam lower
down thnn ours, nnd, anyway, that land
lies too high to be watered by any
thing but a high-lino ditch I"
"Nice little brace game, Isn't it?"
growled Baldwin. "If wo hadn't been
n lot of hayseed amateurs, we might
have found out long ngo that someone
was running In n cold deck on us.
Whnt's your notion? Are we doue up,
world without end?"
Williams' Inugh was grim.
"Whnt we need, colonel, Is to go out
on the street nnd yell for n doctor," he
said. "It's beginning to look ns If we
hnd acquired a pretty bad case of ma
llgnnnt strangle-ltls."
Baldwin ran his fingers through his
hair and admitted that he had lost his
sense of humor.
"This Eastern crowd Is trying to
freeze us out, to get our dam nnd reser
voir nnd ditch rights for their Esca
lante scheme. When they do, they'll
turn nround nnd sell us water nt fifty
dollars an Inch, or something like
thnt I"
"Whnt breaks my heart Is that we
haven't been nble to surround the sure
enough fact while thero was still time
to do something," lamented the ex
reclamation man. "The first thing we
know, S-tnnton will own n majority of
the stock and bo voting us all out of
n Job. You'll have to come around to
my suggestion, nfter nil, and advertise
for a doctor." It was said of the chief
of construction that he would have
Joked on his death-bed, nnd, ns n fol
lower for the Joke, he added: "Why
don't you call Smith In and glvo him
tho Job?"
"You don't renlly mean that, Wil
liams, do you?" growled the colonel.
"No, I didn't mean It when I snld It,"
was tho engineer's admission; "I was
only trying to get a rise out of you. But
really, colonel, on second thought, I
don't know but It is worth considering.
As I say, Smith seems to know the
"and Yell for a Doctor."
money gnmo from stnrt to finish. Whnt
is better still, ho Is a fighter from the
word go whnt you might call a Joyous
fighter. Supposo you drive out tomor
row or next dny and pry into him n
little."
Tho rnncher-presldent had relapsed
once moro Into tho slough of dlscour
lgement. "You are merely grabbing for hand
holds, Bnrtley as I was n minute ago.
Wo nre in n bad row of stumps when
we enn sit here nnd talk seriously
about roping down a young hobo nnd
putting him Into the flnnnclnl harness.
Let's go nround to Frascatl's and eat
before you go back to camp. It's bread
time, anyway."
Tho chief of construction said no
more about his Joking suggestion nt the
moment, but when they were walking
nround the squnro to, the Brewster Del
monlco's he went bnck to tho dropped
subject In all seriousness, saying:
"Just the same, I wish you could know
Smith nnd slzo him up ns I have. I
can't help believing, some way, that
he's all to the good."
CHAPTER V.
The Specialist.
Though tho matter of calling In an
expert doctor of finance to diagnose
tho nlnrmlng symptoms In Tlmanyonl
ditch hnd been left indetermlnnto In the
talk between Colonel Baldwin nnd him
self, Wllllnms did not let It go entirely
by default. On tho day following the
Brewster office conference the engineer
sent for Smith, who wns checking the
output of tho crushers at tho quarry,
and a llttlo later tho "botterment" mnn
presented himself nt tho door of tho
corrugated-Iron Bhack which served as
a field office for tho chief.
Williams looked tho cost-cutter over
as ho stood In tho doorway. Smith was
thriving and expanding hnndsomcly la
the now environment. IIo had let hlu
beard grow nnd It was now long enough
to bo trimmed to a point. Tho tnvel
broken clothes had been exchanged for
working khaki, with lnce-boots and leg
gings, and tho campaign hat of the en
gineers. Though ho had been less .han
a month on tho Job, ho was already be
ginning to tau nnd toughen under the
healthy outdoor work to roughen, as
well, his into fellow members of tho
Lawrcncovlllo Cotillon club might havo
af0ty 111 111
said, since he had fought three plt.hed
battles with ns many of the camp bill
lies, and had In each of them proved
himself a niati of his hands who could
not only take punishment, but could
hummer an opponent swiftly nnd neat
ly Into nny desired state of subjection.
"Come In here and sit down; I wnnt
to talk to you," was tho way William'?
began it; and nfter Smith had found
n chair tho chief went on: "Say, Smith,
you're too good a man for anything I'vo
got for you here. Haven't you realized
that?"
Smith pulled a memorandum book
from his hip pocket nnd ran his eye
over the private record he had been
keeping.
"I've shown you how to effect n few
Uttle savings which totnl up something
like IB per cent of your cost of produc
tion nnd operation," he snld. "Don't
you think I'm earnlug my wages?"
"That's nil right; I've been keeping
tab, too, and I know what you're do
ing. But you nre not beginning to earn
what you ought to, either for yourself
or the company," put In the chief
shrewdly. And then: "Loosen up,
Smith, nnd tell me something nbout
yourself. Who are you, and where do
you come from, and what sort of a Job
have you been holding down?"
Smith's reply wns as surprising ns It
was seemlugly Irrelevant.
"If you're not too busy, Mr. Wllllnms,
I guess you'd better make out my time
check," he said quietly.
Wllllnms took n retlectlve half-mln-ute
for consideration, turning the sud
den request over deliberately In his
mind, as his habit was.
"I suppose by that you mean that
you'll quit before you will consent to
open up on your record?" he assumed.
"You've guessed it," said the man
who had sealed the book of his past.
Again Williams took a little time. It
wns discouraging to hnve his own nnd
the colonel's preflgurlngs ns to Smith's
probable state and standing so prompt
ly verified.
"I suppose you know the plain Infer
ence you're leaving, when you say a
thing like that?"
Smith made the sign of assent. "It
leaves you entirely nt liberty to finish
out tho story to suit yourself," he ad
mitted, adding: "The back numbers
my back numbers nre my own, Mr.
Williams. I've kept a file of them, as
everybody does, but I don't have to
produce It on request."
"Of course, there's nothing compul
sory about your producing It. But un
less you nre what they call In this
country a 'crooked' crook, you nro
standing in your own light. You have
such a staving good head for figures
and finances that It seems a pity for
you to bo wasting It here on nn under
graduate's Job In cost-cutting. Any
young fellow Just out of a technical
school could do what you're doing in
the way of paring down expenses."
The cost-cutter's smile wns mildly
Incredulous.
"Nobody seemed to be doing It be
fore I came," ho offered.
"No," Williams allowed, "that's the
fact. To tell the plain truth, we've had
bigger things to wrestle with; and we
have them yet. for thnt mntter enough
of them to go all around the Job twice
and tie In a bowknot."
"Flnnnces?" queried Smith, feeling
some of the bnck-number Instincts stir
ring within hlra.
The chief engineer nodded; then he
looked up with a twinkle In his closely
set gray eyes. "If you'll tell me why
you tried to kill Burdell the other dny,
maybe I'll open up the record our
record for you."
This time the cost-cutter's smile wns
good-nnturedly derisive, und It ignored
the reference to Burdell.
"You don't hnve to open up your
record for me; It's the tulk of the
camp. You people nre undercnpltal
Ized to boll It down Into one word.
Isn't that ubout the way It sizes up?"
"That Is tho way It has turned out;
though we hnd capital enough to begin
with. We've been bled to death by
damage suits."
Smith shook his head. "Why haven't
you hired u ilrst class attorney, air.
Williams?"
"We've hnd the best we could find,
but the other fellows have beaten us
to it, every time. But the legal end of
It hasn't been the whole thing or the
biggest part of It. What we are need
ing most Is a man who knows a little
something about corporation fights and
high flnnnce." And at this tho engi
neer forgot the Smith disabilities, reul
or Inferential, and went on to explain
In detail the peculiar helplessness of
the Tlmnnyonl company as tho antag
onist of the as yet unnamed land and
Irrigation trust.
8ome real opportunities come
to "John Smith," but the fear
of detection and capture worries
him deeply. Some big develop
