Henry
whispers
to
me
and
wants
the
pause
in
the
programme
interpreted
.
I
whisper
back
:
'
H.
P.
is
up
against
a
bribe
,
senator
's
size
,
and
the
coons
have
got
him
going
.
'
I
saw
Mellinger
's
hand
moving
closer
to
the
package
.
'
He
's
weakening
,
'
I
whispered
to
Henry
.
'
We
'll
remind
him
,
'
says
Henry
,
'
of
the
peanut-roaster
on
Thirty-fourth
Street
,
New
York
.
'
"
Henry
stooped
down
and
got
a
record
from
the
basketful
we
'd
brought
,
slid
it
in
the
phonograph
,
and
started
her
off
.
It
was
a
cornet
solo
,
very
neat
and
beautiful
,
and
the
name
of
it
was
'
Home
,
Sweet
Home
.
'
Not
one
of
them
fifty
odd
men
in
the
room
moved
while
it
was
playing
,
and
the
governor
man
kept
his
eyes
steady
on
Mellinger
.
I
saw
Mellinger
's
head
go
up
little
by
little
,
and
his
hand
came
creeping
away
from
the
package
.
Not
until
the
last
note
sounded
did
anybody
stir
.
And
then
Homer
P.
Mellinger
takes
up
the
bundle
of
boodle
and
slams
it
in
the
governor
man
's
face
.
"
'
That
's
my
answer
,
'
says
Mellinger
,
private
secretary
,
'
and
there
'll
be
another
in
the
morning
.
I
have
proofs
of
conspiracy
against
every
man
of
you
.
The
show
is
over
,
gentlemen
.
'
"
'
There
's
one
more
act
,
'
puts
in
the
governor
man
.
'
You
are
a
servant
,
I
believe
,
employed
by
the
president
to
copy
letters
and
answer
raps
at
the
door
.
I
am
governor
here
.
Señores
,
I
call
upon
you
in
the
name
of
the
cause
to
seize
this
man
.
'
"
That
brindled
gang
of
conspirators
shoved
back
their
chairs
and
advanced
in
force
.
I
could
see
where
Mellinger
had
made
a
mistake
in
massing
his
enemy
so
as
to
make
a
grand-stand
play
.
I
think
he
made
another
one
,
too
;
but
we
can
pass
that
,
Mellinger
's
idea
of
a
graft
and
mine
being
different
,
according
to
estimations
and
points
of
view
.
"
There
was
only
one
window
and
door
in
that
room
,
and
they
were
in
the
front
end
.
Here
was
fifty
odd
Latin
men
coming
in
a
bunch
to
obstruct
the
legislation
of
Mellinger
.
You
may
say
there
were
three
of
us
,
for
me
and
Henry
,
simultaneous
,
declared
New
York
City
and
the
Cherokee
Nation
in
sympathy
with
the
weaker
party
.
"
Then
it
was
that
Henry
Horsecollar
rose
to
a
point
of
disorder
and
intervened
,
showing
,
admirable
,
the
advantages
of
education
as
applied
to
the
American
Indian
's
natural
intellect
and
native
refinement
.
He
stood
up
and
smoothed
back
his
hair
on
each
side
with
his
hands
as
you
have
seen
little
girls
do
when
they
play
.
"
'
Get
behind
me
,
both
of
you
,
'
says
Henry
.
