As long as I've said what I have, I'll say this: that the politicians is all for the railrud, and I hain't got a mite of use for the politicians. I'll vote for a feller like Austen Vane every time, if he'll run, and I know other folks that will." After Mr. Jenney had left her, Victoria stood motionless, gazing off into the haze, until she was startled by the voice of Hastings Weare beside her.
Mrs. She sat in the parlour with her guest until Mr. Jenney reappeared with shining face and damp hair. "You'll excuse me, my dear," said Mrs. Jenney, "but the supper's on the stove, and I have to run out now and then." Mr. Jenney was entertaining. He had the shrewd, humorous outlook upon life characteristic of the best type of New England farmer, and Victoria got along with him famously.
"He was a mite wild as a boy, but sence he's sobered down and won that case against the railrud, he could get any office he'd a mind to. He's always adoin' little things for folks, Austen is."

"Because I don't think the boys could have elected me," answered Austen, laughing. "He's as popular a man as there is in the county," declared Mr. Jenney.
Persistent knocking by a chauffeur at last brings a woman to the door. Mrs. Jenney has a pleasant face and an ample figure. "Mr. Jenney live here?" cries Mr. Crewe from the driver's seat. "Yes," says Mrs. Jenney, smiling. "Tell him I want to see him." "Guess you'll find him in the apple orchard." "Where's that?" The chauffeur takes down the bars, Mr.
"When there is nothing to say," he suggested. She laughed softly. He tried to remember the sound of it afterwards, when he rehearsed this phase of the conversation, but couldn't. "It's because you like the hills, isn't it?" she asked. "You seem such an out-of-door person, and Mr. Jenney said you were always wandering about the country-side." "Mr.
You'd have been soaked before you got to Harris's. How be you? I ain't seen you since that highfalutin party up to Crewe's." "It's very kind of you to let me come in, Mr. Jenney."
