"Now, if only your father can hold his position," said Dave, to Roger, one day, "your folks will be well fixed." "He is going to try to hold it, in spite of his political enemies," answered Roger. And this Senator Morr eventually did, being elected to another term at Washington.
"Why, they might side right in with Blugg!" "So they might," added Phil. "A case of 'birds of a feather, you know." "And so you are the real Roger Morr," said Abe Blower, catching Roger by the shoulder and looking him squarely in the eyes. "Wall, I must say I like yer looks a heap better nor I did the bogus one!" And he chuckled, broadly. "I am glad you do, Mr. Blower.
Then he sent Dave to boarding school, where the lad soon proved his worth, and made close chums of Roger Morr, the son of a United States senator; Phil Lawrence, the offspring of a wealthy shipowner, and a number of others.
I beg of you, don't shoot!" screamed Job Haskers, and he, too, dropped his hold of the bundle and sent his hands in the air. Then, catching sight of the pistols, he dropped on his knees. "Oh, Morr, please don't shoot! Porter, I beg of you, have mercy! And you, Lawrence, please point that weapon away! It it might go off!" "This is a fine piece of business to be engaged in," said Roger, sternly.
"Hello, Davy!" cried a merry voice, and Dunston Porter, the lad's uncle, came striding forward from an automobile near by. "How did you leave Senator Morr and his family, and are you ready for that trip through Yellowstone Park?" "I left the senator and his family well," was the answer. "And I am ready for the trip that is part of the trip," Dave added, hastily. "Part of the trip?" cried Jessie.
"If what you say is true, I'll have to look into this matter," remarked Senator Morr. "I don't propose to have my garage burnt down, with two automobiles worth five thousand dollars, not to say anything about the danger to the rest of the place. If I find " Bang! It was an explosion like a cannon and made everybody jump.
"We feel certain of it," replied Roger. "They are old school enemies of ours," he added. "It's only one more score we've got to settle with them," he continued, to his chums, and shut his teeth with a snap. Nothing further could be learned concerning the mysterious visitors, and finally the boys went back to the Morr mansion, to get ready for the evening celebration.
He knows that I am the real Roger Morr, and Maurice Harrison was my mother's brother." "Well, I never! But wot did they think to gain " "They wanted to locate the lost mine before I got here, that was their game. What they intended to do later I don't know, but probably Job Haskers was going to cook up some deal whereby our family could be kept out of the property. He is a rascal "
"Coming?" "Yes, Roger. Where is Phil?" "Gone to the field with his wooden bear." Roger Morr looked at his chum's sister. "Want to come along and try your luck?" he questioned. "A fine box of fudge to the one making the most bull's-eyes I mean bear's-eyes." "No, indeed, I'd be afraid of my life even to touch a revolver," answered the girl.
Then the old miners put up the proper stakes, as a new claim for Mrs. Morr. In the meantime, Larry Jaley had been given some stores and told to go about his business. Abe Blower had directed him to a trail to the southward. This was a long way around, but the trail seemed to be perfectly safe, and Jaley was only too glad to take to it. It was the last the boys saw of the man.
