The Titan

CHAPTER XXXV
15/25

I'm not naming any names just yet, but when the time comes you'll see.

Now, what I want to ask of you is this, and I'll not mince me words nor beat around the bush.
Will you and Tiernan come in with me and Edstrom to take over the city and run it during the next two years?
If you will, we can win hands down.

It will be a case of share and share alike on everything--police, gas, water, highways, street-railways, everything--or we'll divide beforehand and put it down in black and white.

I know that you and Tiernan work together, or I wouldn't talk about this.

Edstrom has the Swedes where he wants them, and he'll poll twenty thousand of them this fall.
