It's this: sooner or later everybody gets theirs. My sort and Inglesby's sort, we all get ours. Duck and twist and turn and sidestep all we want, at the end it's right there waiting for us, with a loaded billy up its sleeve: Ours!
Inglesby's got seats in all your churches first-aid to the parson's pants-pockets.
But, insisted Laurence, when a thing must be done, and you can do it in a manner which benefits all and injures none; when your own people ask you to do it for them, isn't that your business? A cold damning resume of Inglesby's entire career made Eustis hesitate. A vivid picture of what the state might expect at Inglesby's hands roused him to just anger. Such as this fellow represent Carolina?
They had at Inglesby's instigation been guilty of a tactical blunder of which the men behind the Clarion had taken fiendish and unexpected advantage. It had simply never occurred to either that a small town editor might dare to "come back." The impossible had actually happened. I think it was this slackening of his power which alarmed Inglesby into action. "Mr.
"Inglesby's right there on the platform at all your spiel-fests, smirking at the women and telling 'em not to bother their nice little noddles about anything but holding down their natural jobs of being perfect ladies ain't he and other gents just like him always right there holding down their natural jobs of protecting 'em and being influenced to do what's right? Sure he is!
Far too fine to be lost in the shuffle at Washington, where he'd be a condemned nuisance just as he sometimes is here at home. Do you begin to comprehend?" "Why, no," said she, blankly. "And I certainly fail to see where my silly letters " "Let me make it plainer. You and your silly letters put the game into Mr. Inglesby's hands, swing the balance in his favor. You pay me? Heavens, no!
Inglesby's getting ready to march on to Washington. You watch him do it!" "Never!" said Laurence, and set his mouth. "No?" The Butterfly Man lifted his eyebrows. "Well, what are you going to do about it? Fight him with your pretty little Clarion? It's not big enough, though you could make it a handy sort of brick to paste him in the eye with, if you aim straight and pitch hard enough.
We couldn't approve of her behavior to Laurence, nor was it easy to refrain from disapproval of what appeared to be a tacit endurance of Inglesby's attention. She couldn't plead ignorance of what was open enough to be town talk the man's shameless passion for herself, a passion he seemed to take delight in flaunting.
For his own sake she had to keep silent just as Hunter had known she would. What Laurence must think of her, even the loss of his affection and respect, would be part of the price paid for having been a fool. In the most unobtrusive manner they kept in touch with her. Hunter had so adroitly wirepulled, and so deftly softened and toned down Inglesby's crudities, that Mrs.
Jan was so efficient a foreman that Inglesby's power was always behind him. So when Jan chose to get very drunk, and sang long, monotonous songs, particularly when he sang through his teeth, lugubriously: "Yeszeze Polska nie Zginela Poki my Zygemy ..." men and women trembled. Poland might not be lost, but somebody's skin always paid for that song.
