Fee, principal counsel for the milling
company, sought in his cross exam
ination to establish the point that in
the days before farming, rich crops
of grass grew on the lands without
irrigation. but his sharp questions
never confused the old Indian i'm the
least. Through an interpreter he de-
clared that the grass grew fine but
that in the hot summer days il
withered and died. Thereupon. Judge
Fee asked him If it were not a fact
that the grass grew in sufficient
abundance to feed many horses. "In
early summer, grass fine and horses
heap fat" declared the sagacious red =
skin, but grass dry up, horses get
thinner and thinner ana when winter
comes, they starve."
Not once did Sumpkin become con-
fused and the attorneys for the mill
had to admit him a good witness for
the opposition. The Indian, too.
seemed to realize the fact for when
he passed Fee after being dismissed
from the stand, he had pleased
twinkle in his eye and gave voice to
an ugh" which raised laugh at the
attorneys expense
Joe Craig, another Indian and one
of the most enlightened of the reser-
walton people. was on the stand most
of this morning, giving testimony as
to such of the lands as have been
farmed by the Indians. Apparently
he has good understanding of the
situation and his answers in English
are very clear. Craig is national sec.
retary of the Brotherhood of North
American Indians.

USE OF WATER WOULD Be BENEFIT
INSTEAD OF INJURY SAYS EXPERT

That the use Of the waters of the
Umatilla river upon the bottom lands
of the reservation not only will not
injure the Byers mills of this city but
will prove a positive benefit by in
creasing the summer flow, is the
opinion expressed on the stand yes
terday afternoon by Herbert ID. New
ell engineer of the UmatiIla project.
Mr.. Newell was one of the government
witnesses in the case to decide the
controversy over the water right now
being heard before Commissioner
George r. Cochran.
After testifying to the annual flow
of the river, he gave his opinion as
an engineer that the volume of water
in the stream during the summer
months would be increased by the ir-
rigation of the bottom lands on the
reservation and that the period of
flow would, to some extent be length
ened. This by reason of the fact that
the water used in irrigation would
eventually find its way back into the
river and at a time when 1t would be
of more advantage to the mill. Mr..
Newell likewise is convinced that no
damage to the government or private
projects would result from the use
of the water by the Indians.
