David J. Foster, of Burlington, was
elected to congress from the First dis
trict and Kittredge Haskins. of Brat
tleboro. from the Second district.
The vote for congressman followed
closely that for governor. With the
exception of the three northern coun-
ties where local Issues affected the
normal vote, the complexion of the
legislature was practically unchanged
This indicates that Senator Redfield
Proctor will be reelected.
The campaign was hard fought BY
both of the leading parties, the demo

OLD STORY RECALLED
New Version Of the Tale of Damon
and Pythias.
Furnished ny Two Cow Men OF Ari-
soma = Principals Are Made Ac-
auainted with Several New
Points of American Law.


The story Of Damon and Pythias is
recalled by the tie OF friendship binding
two Arizona cowmen.
Shorty Dallas and Joe Roberts came
10 Arizona from the middle states anG
settled in the Blue River country near
Clifton. which TO this day remains Sc
eiuded and more or less untouched by
civilized ways. Their friendship had no
limitations, SO that when Roberts killed
cattle that belonged To another man
Dallas also broke the law to aid him.
Roberts was caught red handed. but
with big six-shooter in either hand he
shot his way through circle OF peace
officers who surrounded him. With the
officers hot after him Roberts rode to
the cabin OF Dallas at mad gallop.
Dallas assured the posse In pursuit
that he had not seen Roberts. and be-
lieyed he had fled In another direction.
Ills statement was accepted In good faith
and no further search was made there.
Roberts rested TRANQUILITY In Dallas
cabin while the search wenton. Then he
allied his belt with cartridges, stocked
his sack with 'jerky" and wended his
way toward that bourne from which gun
nen seldom return--Mexico
When he thought his pal was safe
Dallas went 10 Clifton and. ignorant OF
the law. told the Joke OF the undoing Of
The posse. The victim OF the Joke. Jake
Parks. heard the amusing tale and
straightway arrested Dallas for the
penitentiary offense Of harboring fu-
gitive.
Dallas was placed under bonds and re-
ceiyed lesson ON the legal require
ments Of citizenship in the United
States Roberts was not far away. and
he learned OF his partners troubles. He
announced that he alone should suffer
for the cattle killing. and he surrendered
himself to the authorities 70 secure the
release OF Dallas
The authorities then lectured him from
modern commentaries. and now boti
men are under arrest for felonious In
fringement Of laws. which seems strange
10 them.
