CHAPTER VI.
On the morning of Election Day
Comparatively few people in the
“Big Burg” rose early enough to
tune in on the radio for their daily
setting-up exercises. But those who
did were electrified at what they
heard coming over the loud speak-
ers.
“Good morning, ladies and gentle-
men! Instead of our usual exercises
this morning we have a painful an-
nouncement to make and a duty to
point out. At half-past three this
morning the home of Gene Channing
was bombed and Gene Channing him-
self was wounded.
“Fortunately for us all, Mr.
Channing is not seriously wounded.
The exact nature of the wound has
not been given out nor the circum-
stances of the explosion. We only
know that three other bombs were
found in various parts of the house.
‘ "The Citizens League wishes us
to tell you that in spite of his
wound Mr. Channing will visit every
ward this morning and this after-

As a young man the late Dr. R. V.
Pierce, practiced medicine in Pennsyl-
vania and was known far and near for
his great success in alleviating disease.
Finally he moved to Buffalo, N. Y.,
and put up in ready-to-use form, his
GOLDEN MEDICAL DISCOVERY,
the well known tonic for the blood.
This strength builder is made from a
formula which Dr. Pierce found most
effective when in private practice.
It aids digestion, acts as a tonic and
enriches the blood—clears away pimples
and annoying eruptions and tends to
keep the complexion fresh and dear.

FOR RENT: My seven-room home,

trict leaders looked pop-eyed at.the
turnoun of voters. They knew their
dependables— and these hundreds
on hand at the opening of the polls
were ont their dependables.
On to other polling places went
Channing in his auto and new
crowds surged about his car and
were left in long queues before the
polling places where they had reg-
istered to vote. .
All over the city, as the morning
and early afternoon wore on, the
scene was repeated. Here and there
alarmed Sheedy workers sent out
distress calls for Nick Bruzzi’s army
of reinforcements. '
But a new development followed.
From all over the city came news of
the epidemic of good citizens swarm-
ing out to vote. And Police Com-
missioner Huggins began to hear of
clubbing going on all over the city—
violence not by Nick Bruzzi’s army,
but against them.
For by the afternoon it became
more than evident that Sam Sheedy’s
ship was being swamped by a tidal
wave. Commissioner Huggins and
Sheedy held hurried conferences and
issued orders to their army of blue-
coats.
The orders weer obeyed—after a
fashion. But City Hall saw a hand-
writing on the wall. And the rank
and file of police, knowing that
Commissioner Huggins and Sam
Sheedy would not for long retain
the power to discipline those who did
not favor Nick Bruzzi’s army; went
gladly on the spree they had long
harbored in their hearts—a clubbing

"I had been
through a bad
82 spell of sickness
on bridges, all over town, fireworks
made a frenzied night sky. Great
crowds cheered, slapped each other
on the back, sang songs and in gen-
eral made festival.
The new brooms of the Citizens’
League began to sweep clean imme-
diately they took office. They
swept every vestige of the Sheedy
machine out of office and practical-
ly every, one of Bruzzi’s army out
of the city.
In record time, too, the courts
brought Nick Bruzzi and his lieu-
tenants to trial. Then it was that
the big courtroom in Part IX of the
Criminal Courthouse became the
scene of a piquant drama.
For Molly Bain appeared on the
witness stand, appeared as if by
magic from her hiding place. A
heavy guard was about her. And
the new district attorney presented
her as a witness for the prosecution.
It was a foregone conclusion that
her testimony would place Nick
Bruzzi well in the shadow of the
electric chair.
Then Gene Channing was called
to describe what happened when
Molly Bain shot him.
“It was Miss Bain who had fur-
nished me with the confidential
information I used during the cam-
paign,” Gene' Channing testified.
“So that when she came to my house
on the morning of election I had no
reason to distrust her.
“When we were alone in the liv-
ing room she asked to be allowed
to pull up the shades. She did so.
Then she turned to me with an ex-
pression of fury on her face. But
what she said was not in keeping
with her expression.
“She told me that we were being
watched from a house across the
street; that Nick Bruzzi had placed
four bombs in the house, which
would go off if she was not seen
to shoot me. She told me that our
that this same medicine restored
health to men and^vojyen who had
suffered with stmachand kidney
troubles for years, that complete
relief had come in cases qf misery
where health (resorts, spensive
treatments andmedicineuponmedi-
falle—indeed it seems
! Yet, it is all true, and
at the Harrel Drug Store, this city.
Wherever introduced, this Kon-
jola is vastly different and more
effective in thousands of cases of
ill-health than any previously known
medicine. It is a remarkable liquid
compound for the following well-
known troubles:
RHEUMATISM: Especially se-
vere cases, where pains are intense,
muscles swollen, joints stiff and
rigid. In the milder cases of this
disease, Konjola relieves almost at
once, and this medicine brings the
same results to the neuritis victim
that it does for the rheumatic suf-
ferers.
STOMACH, LIVER, KIDNEYS,
and BOWEL TROUBLES. Nearly
all forms of misery that arise from
these unhealthy organs have been
so quickly relieved by Konjola that
men and women sufferers every-
where were surprised. It is the ac-
tion of this medicine on the organs
of the inner-system that removes
toxic poisons from the system and
brings quick relief in so many cases.
The secret of this Konjola is the
way it acts on the important func-
tionary organs of the body, namely:
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels. So many diseases and long
standing disorders of these organs
were so completely conquered and
entirely banished by this new com-
pound that thousands of people in
larger cities were able to give up
taking medicine for time to come.
After the great accomplishments
and wonderful work of Konjola in
other sections, it is declared that
this medicine is what hundreds of
sufferers in Mercedes and vicinity
have long needed to actually reach
their cases, and preparations are
bring made to introduce Konjola for
the first time at the Harrel Drug
Store, where this medicine will be
sold and explained to the public
tempt to kill Gene Channing is a
message to our citizens from the
underworld. It is a challenge. Gene
Channing will lead to battle all those
who have the courage to follow him.
You are invited to wake your neigh-
bors who are not tuned in on this
a news for them in turn to spread the
word among other voters. We went
to war, as Gene Channing pointed
out, for our country. Will we do as
• much for our city?”
The morning papers rushed ex-
tra editions to catch up - with the
story they would have otherwise
missed. The afternoon papers came
with extras earlier than usual. The
♦ radio stations put aside their sched-
uled programmes to send out bulle-
tins of the Channing story.

What Has Happened So Far
In one of America’s largest cities
graft and corruption are rampant
• with bootleg kings and gangsters
holding vast power over the lives
, and welfare of the citiens. Gene
Channing, a young crusader, is por-
pelled into the political spotlight by
his expose of inside secrets of the
• ring led by Nick (Gashface) Bruzzi.
Molly Bain, a daughter of the West
and Nick’s sweetheart, has been
. Channing’s informant taking revenge
for Nick’s unfaithfulness. The gang
leader, discovering Molly’s treach-
ery, sets a trap involving Channing’s
assassination. Frustrated in this at-
tempt, Nick forces Molly to shoot
Channing herself as part of an elab-
orate plot. Being in his confidence,
Molly enters Channing’s home and
fires point-blank as a bomb rocks
» the building.
Now Go on with the Story
chines had little' to do. The vote—
a staggering one for numbers —
was practically all in. And news-
papers did not wait for the actual
count before setting up their elec-
tion extras.
“Citizen’s League Swamps Sheedy
Machine!” “Citizens Pour Out in
Tidal Wave to Vote for Dr. Brander
for Mayor!” “Channing Crusade
Responsible for Revolt of Citizens
Against Corrupt Regime!”
At Police Headquarters “Shep”
Bauman was moving heaven and
earth—“and raising hell,” a report-
er added—to get Nick Bruzzi re-
leased on bail. But such an array
of legal talent had been summoned
by the Citizens against Bruzzi and
his lieutenants that every one of
“Shep’s’* brilliant devices and
smoothly oiled machinery found in-
superable difficulty.
Nick Bruzzi remained behind the
bars.
But Molly Bain was released —on
almost a nominal bail—furnished
by the Citizens’ League.
Every newspaper reporter that
could be spared was sent out on a
mad scramble to find Moly Bainl
and get her story. Nor were they
the only ones anxious to interview
her. Such of Nick Bruzzi’s army as
were still at large—there was an
epidemic of arrests that day—were
given orders to find her.
But she had vanished. Not even
the Citizens’ League who put up
the bond for her knew where she
was. Gene Channing might have
been able to guess where she could
be found. But he was too busy that
day to talk about it.
For in the evening the Big Burg
went stark staring mad with cele-
bration. The city belonged to its
citizens at last.. In Tribune Square,
