COURTS ALONE CAN DECIDE
(Oregonian.)


Idaho's determination to fight the
Ferris water-power bill at every
point before the people, in Con-
gress and in the courts-is an earn
est of what is i'm store if the cham
pions of centralized National con-
troll and National usurpation OF state
rights persist in their efforts. This
fight will not delay development
more than would passage OF the
Ferris bill itself, for no man would
risk capital under the provisions OF
thst bill until the constitutional and
legal questions that have been rals-
ed are decided once for all. The Ida
no Mineowners' Association is not
the first to challenge the authority
of Congress to dispose of Western
water-power; Colorado and Utah
have already interviewed in pending
suits which raise this question.
There is good reason to believe
that through judicial decision the
states may be able to eliminate en-
tirely the Governments pretended
right to voice in the disposal OF
water power. That right rests not
on sovereignty over the public do
main, which the courts have frequent
ly declared mot to exist, but on
ownership of the land. In a suit TO
condemn right of way over public
land, the Government contended that
no right of eminent domain existed
as against the United States. The
Federal Court held this to be true
only of public land that was actual
ly used or reserved for Government
al purposes and that as to all other
public land municipal and public
utility corporations had the same
right against the Government as
against any other landowners.
The same principle should apply
to states, cities and corporations
seeking to utilize public land for
the development of water-power and
for the erection of transmission
lines. The water-power being the
of the state, and the Gov
eminent land being subject to con-
demnation in the same manner as
the land of private owners, the
states can proceed to grant water
power leases without reference to
the Government The Federal author
Ity is limited to the regulation OF
Interstate rates and service.
The states occupying this strong
egal position and being determined
20 maintain it, what reason have
hose who favor the Ferris bill to
believe that by its passage alone
Ian the present embargo on develop

,ept a Federal lease and spend {,
money under it until he knows that {
he Government has authority toI

authority between Nation and states t
must be clearly defined by tmal

time a mighty gust of wind swept
athwart the waste, hot as a furnace
blast. In a trice dust enveloped man
and horse, a sitting cloud of super
heated particles that stung the flesh
like myriad needles. And then dark
ness fell, the twilight of hades, cop
per-colored pail. Nothing remained
visible beyond arms length.
Blinded, half suffocated, unspeak-
ably dismayed and bewildered, the
broncho swung round, back to the
blast, and refused to bulge another
inch.
Himself more than half-dazed, but
still bounded by his nightmare vision
of Judith, Alan dismounted to escape
being torn bodily from the saddle by
that hellish sand-blast, and Selling
the bride sought to draw the horse
on with him.
He wasted his strength in that en-
deavor: the animal baked, planted
it's hoofs deep in the sand, stiffened
it's legs and resisted with the stub
bornness of a rock; then, of a sudden,
jerked his head smartly, snapped the
bride from his grasp and flung away.
scudding before the storm.
Pursuit was out of the question:
indeed, the bride was barely torn
from his hand before Alan lost sight
of the broncho.
For a moment he stood rooted in
CONSERVATION as in a bog-with an
arm upthrown across his face.
Then the thought Of Judith re-
Cured. -.
Head Bonded and shoulders rounded,
he began to forge way into the teeth
of the sandstone.
How long he fought on, pitting his
strength against the elements, cannot
be reckoned.
In the end he stumbled blindly down
slight decline and was abruptly
conscious that he had In some way
found shelter from the full force of the
wind.
He staggered ON another yard or
two. breathing more freely, and blum
dered into rough-ribbed wall of rock
some sporadic outcrop, he under
stood, whose bulk stood between him
and the storm.
He thought to rest for a time, until
the storm had spent its greatest
strength; but as he laid his shoulder
gratefully against the rock and
scrubbed the dust from his smarting
eyes he saw what he at first conceived
to be a hallucination: Judith Urine
standing within ya-6 at him, alive,
strong, free.
He stared increduiously, saw her
recognize him, open her mouth to
utter wondering cry that was inaudi-
BILE, and come quickly nearer.
Alan! You came for me! You fol-
lowed me. through all this!"
He threw off her hand with a bitter
laugh-that was like the croaking of a
raven as it issued from his bonedry
throat-and in momentary possession
OF hysteric madness, reeled away from
the woman and the shelter of the rock
and delivered himself anew TO the
mercy of the dust-storm.

speakable and to think of Alan as a
mortal enemy and as one whose death
alone could properly requite the cruel
injury that had been done her father.
and though the man himself had
laughed to scorn her first involuntary
confession Of that love for him which
now consumed her being with its in
satiable fires, she swallowed her
chagrin and followed him with the
solicitude OF one whose love can recog-
nize no wrong In Its object Through
all the remainder OF that day OF terror
she was never far from his side.
With the meekness Of the strong.
she made herself his shadow. And
she was now the stronger, for she had
had more than an hours rest beside
the waserhole, which he had missed
on the way OF that rocky windbreak
Sooner or later his strength must fail
him and he would need her; till then
she was content TO bide her hour.
1t befell presently IN startling fash
ion; she was not yard behind him
when he vanished abruptly.
But the next moment Judith herself
was trembling on the crumbling brink
Of an arroyo Of depth and width in
determinable in the obscurity of the
duststorm. Down this, evidently,
Alan had fallen in his dizzy blindness.
She found him insensible, lying with
