Other plans for the development of Dungloe were discussed, but the expense of the cartage of surplus products on the toy Lough Swilly road, and the impossibility of getting freight boats into the undredged harbor, were lead to rising ambition. "Parliament is not interested in public improvements for Dungloe," smiled Mr. Gallagher.
A politician, I told him. I was through going to jail. Gallagher had a laugh you could hear all over the place. He took me on as a kind of handy boy around the establishment, and by and by I began to run errands and find out things for him. I was boss of that ward myself when I was twenty-six.... How'd you like that cigar?" I praised it. "It ought to have been a good one," he declared.
For a half a minute I was afraid we were going down, but a shift in position by Gallagher steadied the shell. Meanwhile Alderson had thrown his muscles into the oars and we drew away steadily; fifty strokes, and the shadows had swallowed us. Alderson pulled across the river and let the boat drift down the opposite bank. The outgoing tide carried us swiftly. We slipped past the schooner unobserved.
Lieutenant Gallagher of the cavalry bought them, and we are passing through our second experience of seeing others drive around horses we have petted, and taught to know us apart from all others. George almost broke my heart the other day. He was standing in front of Lieutenant Gallagher's quarters, that are near ours, when I happened to go out on the walk, not knowing the horses were there.
Gallagher said he'd been full of it ever since he was a boy; and Dean Drone said so had he. Then a little further, as the Mariposa Belle steamed on down the lake, they passed the Old Indian Portage where the great grey rocks are; and Dr.
"I'm told Kennedy is growling, and running amuck?" "He's down on Catlin and me." "Well, if you think best, we'll placate him? But Gallagher seemed to think he couldn't do much?" "I don't think he has much of a following. Even Moriarty, who was his strong card, has gone back on him." "Will you make a couple of speeches for us in this ward?" "If you'll let me say what I want?" "You can support us?"
"Oh, Ruef's too smart for Langdon," said Aleta. "Every Sunday night he, Schmitz and Big Jim Gallagher hold a caucus. Gallagher is Ruef's representative on the Board. They figure out what will occur at Monday's session of the Supervisors. It's all cut and dried." "It can't last long," Frank mused. "They're getting too much money.
I'll give you two to one, Jack, that before an hour is up you'll see a delegation to the captain." He was right. As Sam stepped down from the bridge, having turned the wheel over to Alderson, he was approached timidly by Neidlinger and Gallagher. Higgins, in partial payment for his share in the revolt, was taking a turn at shoveling coal in the stifling furnace room.
"What's the use of listening to this sort of stuff?" "Be quiet, Major," said Dr. O'Grady. "We're just coming to the point. Go ahead, Thady. You'd just got to the saucerful of tears. When he'd emptied that out, what did he do?" "He asked me," said Gallagher, "was there any relatives or friends of the General surviving in the locality? He had me beat there."
The engineer of the third section had come out of the night operator's office disappointed, and was climbing to his engine to pull out, when he heard, or thought he heard, the dull rumble of a train racing down the canyon. It came in sight while he listened, and the yellow flare told him that it was either Gallagher or Folsom doubling back on one of the construction engines.
