She bent toward him. ‘‘Can you show me the trail to Pass creek?” she asked, and watched his eyes closely. Malloy’s face remained un-1 changed, but his eyes caught and held her’s for an instant. “Sure • can," he said simply. ; "Let's go,” Dona straightened.! . “And we better ride down around , the corrals as though we were going north into the lower country.” CHAPTER NINE DONA and Malloy rode around the corrals and when they were well out of sight of the j main buildings above them the cowboy swerved to the left. They doubled back, following a wash that hid them from the camp. Dona had slipped the carbine loose in its scabbard. Malloy lode ahead with a careless swin'g that spoke of years in the saddle and the girl noticed that he carried no rifle, but had a heavy six gun in a worn holster at his nip. They were climbing out of the wash when a rider galloped from the timber and descended upon them amid a rattling shower of rocks. The rider was Swergin and he was j angry. “You take this girl back to camp,” he shouted. “I’ll fide along to see that you do It. You better not try and more sneaking tricks on me!” Malloy sat his horse and an amused grin pulled at, the corners , of his wide mouth. He looked at : Dona for acceptance or refusal and 1 it was plain that what she wanted J would be done. For a moment she considered. Her rapid appraisal of Swergin told * her that he would not be denied without a fight. Malloy, she knew’, . w’ould not sidestep any action the timber boss might start—even to gunplay. With a smile, she motioned to her escort that they would go back. They rode in silence to the camp, where Swergin ordered their horses put away. Dona made no protest and she felt Malloy's eyes on her as • he dismounted. She w’as not yet 1 ready to put Swergin in his place. Dudley was at the corral and it was plain that he was angry. He had a better horse saddled and had been asking questions of the corral ; boy. Dona felt a pang of conscience and was glad she had come back. Dudley soon would learn to ride and she must not treat him as though she did not want him. He dismounted and they walked up to the main building together. “Trying to ditch me?” he asked. His voice was level. ' No Dud, but I wanted to take a 1 real ride.” Dona was truly sorry, “fm going to ride out after you ' every time you leave camp. Maybe

I’ll make a good target, but I refuse to be treated like a 10-year-old,” Dudley . aid testily. “It ia foolish for you to ride out alone or with any of the men,” Dona protested. “You've never been in the mountains and you've never ridden or used a rifle. This man. Ball, is bad and he is desperate.” She laid a hand on his arm. “You should see now, Dud, that I am at home in this country and as able as a man to take care of myself.’* * * • rvUDLEY caught her hand and faced her about. He looked deep Into her eyes. “I don’t want to be a rotter, Dorla, but you have* me at a disadvantage. It isn't fair. What chance £ave I to be a man in your eyes unless I get out with the others and share the danger? I can’t lie around camp.” He captured her other hand. Dona met his ardent gaze and did not try to free herself. For a long minute they looked Into each other's eyes and Dona felt the old thrill beginning to lay hold on her heart. She felt the same fear, too, that would nbt let her be swept away by Dudley’s eager glance. Swergin’s voice rose from the corral, where he was talking to Malloy. “Anybody that is fool enongh to ride up the Pass Creek trail will get a bullet from the bushes! That's where Gillete got it.” Swergin's voice dropped to a snarl. It was plain that he was laying down orders to Malloy. The cowboy’s answer could not be heard, but it evidently had an edge j of its own as Swergin burst forth j in a 'fresh spurt of anger. An accusing light came into Dudley’s eyes. “You w’ere going to ride to Pass Creek,” he said, jerking Dona a little in his impatience. She nodded. “I was foolish, 1 1

THEY-TILL ME

Hoover-Chamberlin Club FACED with defeat in the November election, because of the party split, Marion county Republicans are seeking to bring the tw’o major factions together through the medium of a Hoover-for-President club. Although the sponsors are, as regular partisan Republicans, for Hoover, yet that is not the underlying purpose in forming the club. The Republican organization is split into tw’o factions: the Coffin group, known as the regular organization, headed by Edgar Hart; and the Republican Union, composed of the so-termed respectable element in the party, of W’hich Edward Harris is chairman. The same Republicans w’ho for years have fought to break the death grip of George V. Coffin on the Marion county organization are members of the union; w’hile the ward-heelers and pay roll boys who have followed the Coffin-Klan-dry league banner in the past are the cogs in the regular machine. This year Coffin has Hart as a front. Before the 1930 primary he attempted to use Martin Hugg in the same manner, but tossed him in the discard, when Hugg sought to conduct the post of chairman in straightforward, honest manner. man Conciliation of the tw’o groups under present leadership apparently is hopeless. So, to give the divided Republicans a common meeting ground,

guess, but it didn’t seem so dangerous to me.” “The next time you ride, I go with you,” he stated flatly. * # * A SPER DELO did not ride with the posse. He set out by himself with his rifle across his saddle. At the edge of the clearing surrounding the camp he pulled up beside" a pile of logs. A man was •working with an ax beside the pile. Asper hailed him. “Can you tell me where to hit the trail to Pass creek?” he demanded. The man straightened and looked Asper over. It was plain that he did not recognize his employer. “Up to the red rim.” The man pointed to where a rim of red rocks broke out of the timber above. “Then a mile along the rim and you'll hit the trail. Takes you down a little canyon and through a strip of broken country.” The man bent his gaze on the bit of his ax and prepared to return to his w’ork. Asper rode on at a brisk pace. As he neared the red rim, he began taking all the cover he could and slowed his pace. Already the country began to grow rough. Great rocks rose out of the growth of aspens that had been left standing by the timber cutters. Asper grunted as he noted all the pine had been cut clean except for second growth and young stuff. The drag lines had wrought havoc with the country and it was eroding badly. Sw’ergin was a bit too much of a close cutter, Asper observed, but he w’as able to handle the forest officials. As he rode along the rim, he was able to stay under cover fairly well. He proceeded with more caution as

and encourage party solidarity, a Hoover-for-President club is being formed. < To Marion county Republicans composing the best element of the party there really is only one issue in this campaign—re-election of Harry O. Chamberlin as circuit judge. And in this cause they have been joined by many Democrats, who openly declare that Chamberlin is the better candidate for the important post. As the situation exists today, there is widespread suspicion among Republicans regarding the policy which wilf be pursued by the regular organization in advancing re-election of Chamberlin, There are reports that the Coffinites, because of their deep-seated hatred for Chamberlin, who constantly has aligned himself with the respectable element, may seek to double-cross him in favor of the Democratic nominee, Earl Cox. u n Rumors of such alliances are heard everywhere. Very few have forgotten the manner in which Judson T. Stark, G. O. P. nominee for prosecutor, was knifed by his own party in the 1930 election and they fear a repetition this year. Therefore, to bring all Republicans together in behalf of re-election of the competent and able Chamberlin, the guise of a Hoover-for-President Club has been devised. It is doubtful whether the Coffinites will come into the fold, even in this manner, while the Republican Union members are willing to co-operate, although they are openly and frankly suspicious of what will occur if both factions get together. Many of them say that it is easier to knife a man in the back when you are close to him than when separated. And there is a lot of truth in that. ‘

he got deeper into the broken country Brush and rock piles offered excellent hideouts and he knew he was at a disadvantage should Ball be lying in hiding where he had to pass. a a a DUDLEY sat on the porch with Dona for half an hour. Then he went down to the corrals. He was eager to learn all he could and to get more practice at riding. Dona watched him idly. Her mind was busy with many thoughts. A man rode up and halted and Dona remembered him as one of the posse. * “Is my father. Dr. Delo, with your men?” she called. The man shook his head. “He didn’t got out with us. I'm looking for Sw’ergin. Have you seen him?” Dona replied that the timber boss

had been at the corrals and the man rode on. By this time Dudley had a horse saddled and had mounted. Dona watched him ride around the corral and down the slope. She smiled. Dudley was game all right and eager to show her he was her equal. Then a disturbing thought crept into hpr mind. Had her father decided to ride the Pass creek trail? Her own decision, prompted by Sw-ergin’s warning, made her almost sure that he had. And he had gone alone. That was the very thing he had wanted to do, to meet BaH singlehanded and have it out. The thought so upset her that she left the porch and headed for the corrals. She did not And Malloy or Swergin there, but she saw the rider w’ho had halted at the porch. H was turning his horse loose and drag-

ging a saddle to the fence. She wait-! ed until he had gone, then entered the corral. Certainty that her father was in danger made her hurry.' She caught the roan without trouble and swung the heavy saddle to his back. He seemed to have accepted her as master and did not fight when she mounted. Dona rode straight across the clearing, the direction in which Mai-; loyv had indicated that Pass Creek lay. Seeing a man working at a pile of logs, she halted to ask directions. He straightened r.nd looked at her' curio\isly. He was Spanish and deliberate in his speech. “Up to the red rim. then a mile along the rim and you hit the trail.” pointing a sun-darkened arm toward the upper slopes.

Now all was forgotten except the instant danger of capture and death or slavery. The six urged their straining mounts ahead. The forest was so near now. Ah, if they could but reach it! There, cme warrior might be aa good as three, and put them on even terras.

‘*Was he a big man on a gray' horse?” Dona asked. | The man nodded and tried the edge of his ax blade on his thumb, j , then returned to his ch-jpping. Dona put the roan ?o a gallop and headed toward the red rim. She was sure now that her father had ridden straight into the locality where Ball was hiding. She did not pause to consider the danger into which she might be riding. She was sure would ride slowly and that she could overtake him. Her plan was simple. She would ! catch up with him and he would re- | turn to camp rather than risk danger to her. She was so taken with this plan that she promised herself she wouAd ride with him every day. That would be sure to keep him out of l dangerous territory.

The trail became more broken and she entered rough country. Finally she reached the end of the rim and swung to the left down into the narrow canyon. She had not ridden a quarter mile down this trial until she realized that it was extremely dangerous for a hunter to follow. A man could hide above the trail on either side. He could cache his horse in the thick growth and waylay any one who came past. She pictured Gillete riding down that trail and being ambushed. In sudden fear for her father, Dona abandoned cover and rode at a gallop. (To Be Continued 1 Anew tire in use on farm tractors is puncture proof.
