What a monperpetrfted. upon some foreigner! Evidently there had been ranchers here in this valley before Herrick. Old “tog cabins and corrals adjoining the new ones attested to this. Jim passed coWboys with only a word or a nod. He talked with an old man who said ne had owned a homestead across the valley, one of those Herrick had gathered in. Jim gleaned information from this rancher. Herrick had bonght out all the cattle men in the valley. and on round the foothill line to Limestone Springs, where the big X Bar outfit began. Riders for these smull ranches had gone to work for Herrick. He was told that Heeseman, with ten men, was out on the range. . Presently Jim encountered Hays, accompanied by a tall, floridly man, garbed as no westerner had ever been, This, of course, must be the Englishman. He was young, hardly over thirty, and handsome in a fleshy way. “Mr. Herrick, this is my new hand I was teltm’ you about,” announced Hays, glibly. “Jim Wall, late of Wyomin’, . . . Jim, meet the boss.” “Ilow. do you do, Mr. Wall,” returned Herrick, “I understand you've had wide experience on ranches?” “Yes, sir. I’ve been riding the range since I was a boy,” replied Jim. “Hays has suggested making you his foreman.” “That is satisfactory to me.” other men. It will be part of your dutiés to keep my books.” ‘T’ve tackled that job before.” “So I was tellin’ the boys,” interposed Hays. “As I understand ranching,* went on Herrick, “a foreman handles -the riders. Now, as this ranching game is strange to me I’m-glad to have a foreman of experience. My idea was to hire some gunmen along with the cowboys. Hays’ name waS given me at eastern Utah.

But the game we're really settin’ in is the biggest ever dealt in Utah. “Talk low, everybody,” instructed Hays. “An’ one of you step out on the porch now an’ then.

We're set.” he went on. “Today I changed my mind about goin’ slow with this job.” Jim Wall had a flash of divination as to this sudden right-about-face. “Herrick reckons there are upwards of ten thousand head of stock on’ the range.
