Continued his impassioned words:
"You know I thought we were going
to be absolutely unmuzzled here. You
were a free man. Poverty couldn't
frighten you, and you had seen both
sides of life. You promised to buck
me up. no matter what it cost, so ioug
as we printed the truth, but at the
tlrst big test you fall me."
Mrs. Nolan was on the point of be
coming hysterical in her agitation.
"Michael, Michael" she began.
"There, mother, you ).'o home with
Sylvester. He's waiting outside for
you. After all, this is a man's job
we've got here. I am the head of the
family, aud I will settle this matter
in m.v own way." he said stenily.
"You must not attempt further to In

longer. And McHenry weir knew that
such an act would not only bring about
Brand's discharge from the Advance,
but that It would as well Injure ills
reputation In other newspaper otllccs,
where obedience to one's superior, as
in any well regulated organization, is
a mail's Ural duty under all cireuui
stuuees.
"Why, man," he exclulined question
ingly, "you're surely not going to run
this story V"
Before Brand could give an answer
to this last question, even if he had in
tended to do so, Nolan broke in on the
pair.
"Mr. Nolan," began Brand, "you
have heard the whole story of this
miserable affair, both sides of it? Bar
telniy's and my own, from our own
Hps. Whatever defense or explanation
Barteliuy gave you I don't know. But,
so far as 1 am concerned, / told you
the facts and the truth. You must
know that by this time. You must be
lieve it. Therefore why do you or
how in heaven's name can you hesi
tate?"
Michael Nolan's face shone with the
light of determination.
"Wheeler, my boy," he said, "I have
teamed much from you. I have needed
contact with such a man as you. I
have led a rough life for most of my
career. When I rose to be chairman
i>f the Street Railway Workers' union

opportunity to study or even become

and the problems that confront the

Nolan drew close to Brand and
placed his hand affectionately <>n the
young editor's shoulder,
"But you. Wheeler you have taught
?ne much about those big issues that I
did not know, and you have shown to
me tlie high Ideals that should guide
the newspaper writer, the newspaper
editor and the newspaper owner as

voice rose to majestic heights. "Wheel

; He led Her out of the room.
Brauil spoke to Mellenry.
'"Did you bear, .Mac V" lie asked. "He
j won't decide to run It."
"It's tough. old man -It's tough!"
"This is such a live tiling 1 dou't
see how 1 can kill it." the managing
editor said, rubbing his hand over the
face of the form.
"That's the best tlrst page ever made
up In America," said Mellenry, with
justifiable professional pride.
Brand was inconsolable.
"I've been working ten years for
Just this thing," he said, "something
so plain that even children would see
what the big thieves are doing."
i "You go home!" Brand suddenly or
dered McHenry.
"What?" was the surprised exclama
1 tion.
"I said go houie!"
Brand's face was beginning to twitch
i nervously. lie stood in the middle of
! the composing room, under the flood
ing white glare from a sixty-four can
dle power electric light, and clinched
and unclluched his hands, not daring
to look McHenry squarely in the face.
The night editor began to guess what
was passing through Brand's mind.
"Yes, but," he began to protest?
"but"?
i Brand cut hiin short, saying agitat
edly:
"I am still managing editor."
McHenry now realized plainly that
the Intensely earnest Brand had decid
ed to run the story that very night re
gardless of Nolan's attitude. It would
be an easy matter, as Nolan, of course,
would not remain at the olticu much
i
Right standing n gainst the evil arm of
the Wrong. So we must not falter.
We must not delay. Show the big
thieves up, Wheeler. Let the story go
to press."
Nolan turned quickly away and has
tened out and down into the street.
A warm glow of enthusiasm spread
over the face of Wheeler ltrand as he
pickcd up a bundle of proofs.
"We'll show them up!" lie cried ex
ultantly. "We'll show them up, and
wo'll nnt thorn ilnwul"
CH AFTER XIV.
RAND and Mtflenry began
eagerly to inspect the final
j?roofs of the Bartelmy story.
Two figures suddenly stood
in the doorway of the composing room.
Ed Dupuy's telephone call was begin
ning to show results. Judge Bartelmy
and Judith, ready for a last effort to
prevent the publication of the con
dcmnatoiy article, quite unobserved,
glanced to where Brand and his asso
ciate editor were at work. "Don't
come in yet. Walt a few moments,"
whispered the Judge. The girl slipped
down the hall Into the managing edi
tor's little otUee, the coign of vantage
from which she had previously been
able to hear all that took place in the
composing room. Bartelmy proceeded
directly to the form before which the
two editors were working, and Brand
saw that he must undergo another un
pleasant encounter before the presses
began to whirl off his story. He
glanced impatiently at the clock and
raised his brows questioning!}' to the
judge.
"Mr. Brand, bns Mr. Nolan been
here tonight?" asked Bartclmy.
"Yes."
"Hove you received Instructions
about tills story?"
I "Yes."
| "What were those Instructions? Is
the story to be printed?"
"I am not at liberty to discuss with
any outside person the communications
I receive from t lie owner, but I will >'
add for your Information that the |J
story will be on the press In a very
few minutes."
At this latest declaration of ISrand's ;
Judith could restrain herself no longer.
She rushed through the doorway,
af-rnss the grimy floor, regardless of :
the flowing train of her silk gown.
Brand rubbed the back of bis hand ;
across his eyes as though they were '
deceiving bim.
"Good (>od, it is Judith!" bo exclaim
ed. Then he turned to his assistant.
?'Here, Mac, hurry? take this form
sway."
The girl's face and eyes were aglow
with the efforts of the nervous strain
under which she labored ou that

"Take the form away," again order

"No. no; don't send it! Walt, wait!"
She threw herself over the Inky form,
her arms outstretched.
Brand tried to draw her away.
"Judith, please!" he protested.
"They can't have"? She was hys
terical.
