Miss Greene smiled on the big saloonkeeper who instantly flamed with She gave him her embarrassment hand and he took It in his fat palm carefully lest he crush It “I am delighted to meet Senator Burns I’ve heard of you so often" she said looking up at him “And do you know I count It a privilege to meet one of your acknowledged Influence In our state’s affairs?” Vernon stood back delighted beyond meusure with the confusion into which Burns for once had been betrayed The senator from the First district was struggling for some word to say and at last he broke out with: “Aw now lady don’t be t’rowin’ de con into me" The men In the little group on that side of the senate chamber burst out lii a laugh but Burns becoming suddenly grave and dangerous and terrible In his gravity they broke oft In The the very midst of their mirth group became silent "Really Senator Burns" said Miss — — Greene “this Is no ah confidence game I assure you” She rose with a Then graceful sweep of her skirts she went on: “If you will permit me I should like to explain my mission to I am down here to ask the sen- you “You’ll have to do it" he said helplessly From some mysterious fold of her habit she took a pin and then leaning over she pinned the rose to his coat pinned it with Its ‘long stem hanging as a woman would pin a flower to a man’s lapel "Thank you” He was looking Into her eyes again ' ’ “Rather let me thank you” she said "It’s so good of you to vote for my CHAPTER III— Continued yernon scarcely knew what to re- measure” His eyes widened suddenly He had ply such objections as he might have She found at other times — the ld mascuquite forgotten the resolution line objections to women’s voting and must have perceived this for she meddling in politics — had all disap- blushed and he hastened to make peared at sight of this remarkable amends young woman who wished to vote her- - “I’ll not only vote for it” he rushed self he could not think of one of ahead Impulsively “but I’ll make a them try as he would His eyes were speech for it” He straightened and ' ' on the rose leaned away from her to give a proper "Perhaps your objections are merely prejudices” she ventured boldly in her eyes a latent twinkle that disturbed him "I confess Miss Greene” he began trying to get back something of his senatorial dignity such as state senatorial dignity Is "that I have not devoted much thought to the subject I am Indeed rather ashamed to acknowledge that I did not even know the unamendment was coming up til I was — ah — so delightfully by your rose” He raised the rose to Inhale Its fraShe made no reply but she grance kept her eyes on him and her gaze compelled him to go on It was hard for him to go on for It was now but a struggle against the formality of a surrender that had been Inevitable from the beginning' But his man’s nride forced him to delay It as long as jossible “What assurances have you from other senators?” he asked “Though perhaps I need not ask — they have unanimously mounted your colors” He looked at his colleagues sporting their roses Miss Greene gave a little exclamation of annoyance "Do you ' think I don’t know” she said “that I don’t understand all that? I might have known that they would not take it seriously! And I thought —I thought — to put the matter so easily to them that I should be spared the necessity of buttonholing them!” "It was a novel way of buttonholing them" he laughed “Oh!” she exclaimed catching her breath "they wear the roses — and laugh at me!” Her eyes flashed through the mists of vexation that suggested tears "You are all alone then?” Vernon said this in a low solicitous tone as If he were dealing with some deep grief “All alone” “And you represent no one1— that Is no society no club?” "I am not a paid lobbyist” she said "though I believe It Is not beyond the I do properties of our profession what I do only from a love of principle I represent only my sex” She said It impressively and then with a quick little laugh that recognized the theatrical that had been In her attitude she added: "And that I suspect "Den I’m Wit’ You” without authorization” “The ladies generally do not seem perspective In which she could admire ate to adopt a resolution that will to be Interested” Vernon acquiesced him He sat there smiling submit an amendment to the constitu“No" she shook her head sadly “no “How splendid of you!” she cried tion permitting the women of Illinois on the contrary I suppose most of "I feel encouraged now” to vote at all elections as they vote them oppose the measure” He Then Vernon’s face lengthened at school elections now If you can “I have generally found them of that “But you’ll have to give give it I should like your support I stammered: me some data I — I don’t know a thing should at least like to- tell you feeling" Vernon observed my “The slaves before the war often about the subject” reasons" “Oh” she laughed “I brought some petitioned congress not to set litem Slowly she seated herself again free you will remember” literature It shall all be at your dis- saying “Will you sit down?” Miss Greene spoke with a bitterposal And now I must be about my But Burns only stood and looked at ness Then quickly she collected her- work Can you make any suggestions? her There was a trace of fear In her self Can you tell me whom I should see face “But your objections Senator Ver- whom I should interest who has the “Do you want dis resolution put non?” she said “Really we must get — ah — pull I believe you call It?” down to business” “I’ll bring them to you” Vernon t’rough?” he asked bluntly “I? Indeed I do!” she said She raised the little chatelaine said “You sit here and hold court” “Is dere anyt’lng in it fer you?” he He rose and his eyes swept the watch that hung at her bosom and chamber They lighted on Burns and went on looked down at it And then suddenan idea suddenly came to him He “Why” Miss Greene said somewhat ly without waiting for his objections as If she had quite forgotten them in- would revenge himself on Burns for at a loss “only that I am interested as a matter of principle In seeing it deed she impulsively stretched forth all the slights of the session “Of course you'll have to see Sam a hand and said: adopted It would be a great day for “You will help me won’t you?” Porter but I’ll begin by bringing Sen- me if I could go back to Chicago feelVernon looked Into her eyes His ator Burns — familiarly known as Bull ing that I had had just a little bit to do with such a result" gaze after an Instant fell He tried Bums" to run the stem of the rose through “I’ve read of him so often In the “Den I’m wit’ you” said Burns and his buttonhole The thorns caught in newspapers” she said “It would be wheeling he went back to his desk the cloth an experience” Miss Greene watched him a mo 8YN0P8IS Senator Morley Vernon’s visit with his flanlee was Interrupted by a call from bis political boss at the state' capital Both regretted It the girl more than he because she had arranged to attend a dinner that evening with him She said she yearned for a national office for him On Vernon’s desk In the senate he found a red rose accompanied by a plea for met women the auHe for suffrage thoress Miss Marla Greene of pretty to convert him who proposed Chicago No 19 Into voting for house- resolution to the men ment and their numbers auginevted cow by others who had come up to see Burns in the presence of such' a woman The glance she gave them was a question “Oh he means It" said Monroe o! Whiteside “He'll vote for the reso-- ' lution” “Yes he’s given his word” said Brownwell of Cook Vernon devoted half an hour to to meet Marla bringing senators Greene It was not difficult work It though It had Its disadvantages did not allow Vernan to remain with her long at a time But at last it was done and he found a moment alone with her She had given him some pamphlets on equal suffrage "Ah If you could only address the senate!” he exclaimed In open admiration And then as If an inspiration had come to him he added: “Perhaps I could arrange it it has been done” She gasped and stretched out her hand to stay him “Oh not for all the world!" she protested “But you’ll come and meet the “Up there?”' she said Incredulously pointing to the dais under the flags “Why yes” Vernon answered “why not?
