FROM THE TREE-TOP

What would you see if took you up To my little nest in the air? You would see the sky like a clear
 blue cup Turned upside downwards there. What would you do if I took you there To my little nest in the tree? My child with cries would trouble the
 air,
 To get what she could but see. What would you get in the top of the
 tree For all your crying and grief? Not a star could you clutch of all you
 see You could only gather leaf. But when you had lost your greedy
 grief, Content to see from afar, You would find in your hand a wither- ing leaf. In your heart a shining star.

says it will produce good crops by dry farming methods or at least that is his conviction. And he speaks as one having right to an opinion. for he has been farming there to some extent for the last twenty years. At one time he had 1900 acres under cultivation. He says there are many old ranches that have not been cared for or watered for years, except the natural rainfall. on which there is now good stand of alfalfa. They are well located. where the subterra- mean water flow is not too deep, and the old alfalfa, planted and watered at the start, has finally sent it's roots down to the moisture below. SD it does not entirely dry out. no matter how dry the season. The doctor says that on certain of the lands he be-
 lieves by scientific methods almost anything can be grown in most years with the natural rainfall, while some crops can be grown during the right season on almost all of it. Anyhow
 he is still holding to his land and if conditions work out as he expects them to. he is going to possess him.

THE CAUSE CELEBRE
 OF M'DERMOIT'S COWS
Whereof the Officers and Soldiers of WhippIe Have Suffered Much.

United States Attorney Alexander went to Prescott this morning to ap- pear for the government in the cele- brGted COW case" This is an action brought by the department of justice in behalf Of the helpless war depart of McDermott and his wife from all lowing their cows to range over the Whipple military reservation and lay waste the grass plats. flower gardens and shrubbery which surround the officers quarters.
 McDermott has been in the dairy business in that vicinity for a great many years and for as many years, until comparatively recently. his cat tie have been allowed the run of the reservation. Objection began to be raised when the officers began try ing to beautify their homes: their wives also objected to the presence of tine cows. which. after having de- stroyed the herbage and flowers. stood around insOlently gazing into the win dows Useful as the COW may be. it was held that she was not always ornamental
 Al first the officers tried driving the cattle away from the immediate vicinity of the quarters and afterward from the reservation entirely. But. as will be hereinafter shown. the in- vasion of the reservation had become an inbred characteristic of the Alc- Dermott cows. They knew their rights. which it was afterwards asserted they had acquired by laches on the part of the government.
 The nights about the post were
Arizona republican., 1909-11-01

spent in herding cattle. The single troop stationed there was converted into an outfit of cowboys. so that on the following days they were inat- tentive to their ordinary military du- ties. Chasing cows at night became their vocation. and soldering their aVocation.
 The McDermotts not only made no effort to keep their cows away. but they resented the course of the United States army in chasing them. to the diminution of the lacteal supply.
 Then the case got into court. The war department appealed to the de- partment of justice. and that depart ment. perhaps in order to anticipate an injunction suit by the McDermotts to prevent the army from unduly eX- ercising the cows. brought action to have the cows kept off the reserva- tion.
 In the answere iu the complaint it is asserted that the cows were in their right, acquired by their ances- tors for more than thirty years; they had had the run of the reservation for several generations of cows. and for that time had been in peaceful adverse possession Of it. especially at night The government declines to accept a doctrine that the right of trespass can be acquired by COW and now the case is to be tried.
 The United States attorney took with him this morning a bundle of papers about the size of a small load of hay They had just been received from Washington and constitute docu- mentary evidence tending to show that Whipple reservation is the pri- vate property of the United States and for the last forty years has not been a COW pasture.
 This evidence includes certain or ders by former Secretary of War John A Rawlins. General Q. O. Ord. General William Tecumseh sherman and General Ulysses Simpson Grant In fact. the flower of the army of the United States in its palmiest days appears to have involved itself un- wittinsly in the COW case"

Senator Davis Returns

Sen. Carl Davis was in the city
Monday the first time since taking up
his duties at the state capital last
winter. He states that he is glad to
get back to Elmore county again after
a very busy session at the statehouse
and will Immediately take up his
residence on his fruit ranch on the
Snake river.
Senator Davis was a very active
and effective worker during the last
session. Among other bills he drafted
the most important possibly was the
one on direct primary. Concerning
the authorship of this bill the States
man has the following to say:
There seems to be considerable
misunderstanding throughout the
state as to the real authorship of the
direct primary bill. This bill orig
mated in the house. The Idaho county
delegation was instructed for this
measure and Immediately upon their
arrival in Boise Representatives
Adkison and Woodward began active
work on drafting the bill. They
had the earnest cooperation of Sen
ator Davis of Elmore county and
Judge Ailshie of the supreme court.
These gentlemen prepared the bill
as passed by both houses and their
friends declare the credit belongs to
them. Representative Woodward,
himself most able lawyer, gave his
untiring efforts to its preparation,
aided throughout with the advice OF
Judge Ailshie. Representative Adki-
son had charge of the bill on the fiool
of the house and fought for its pas
sage, every line and section as origin
ally presented, for four hours and sue
cessfully resisted any attempt to amend
the original. Senator Rowten of ldah'
county Senator Shawhan of Canyol
county and Senator Davis of Elmor'

The Seattle Fair

cities, societies and all sorts of organ
izations for special dates to be set
aside in their honor at the Alaska.

day during the four and half months
of the fair will have some special
designation. and some of the smaller
organizations have been forced to
divide dates between them. For in
stance. there are forty six states and
four territories to be provided with
special days. there are a score or more
of foreign countries, a bunch of
counties and cities in the Northwest,
no end of lodges and national conven-
tions and organizations. commercial
bodies, etc.

banner dates of the Exposition will be
those devoted to the states and cities
of the Northwest, when special trains
at excursion rates will bring thou
sands of visitors into the city from
the localities which are honored by
