STATE WATER RIGHTS ATTACKED

Denver, April 24.-The state of Ne
braska claims prior rights to waters in
the Poudre and the Big Thompson aud
has instituted a suit against the off
cials and irrigationists having these
waters in charge. al
This brings another suit from outside
of the state to determine the water
rights at the source of the supply. 9th
er suits are still unsettled and the feder-
al courts must solve this problem when
the others have been cleared up.
The attorney general of Nebrasks,
Willis E. Reed, filed the suit in the fed.
eral district court Saturday, and against
the state engineer, the water commits
sioners and many reservoir and ditch
companies. The waters in the two
streams mentioned are made the issue
of the suit and the rights of the present
users are assailed. n
The plaintiffs are in fact the water
users on the South Platte in Nebraska.
They claim that having rights older
than those in Colorado they are entitled
to the water now being diverted for
use in this state. The complaint charge
that during the irrigation season, from
May l to October Is, the water in the
Poudre and the Big Thompson IS used
to such an extent that the South is
practically dry and this has practically
ruined the farming interests Of the
plaintiffs. D.
1t is alleged that the two streams
are the headwaters of the South Platte
and that the watershed, though it be
in Colorado, must be protected for
those holding prior rights. ll
This opens up an old sore in water
irrigation in this state. For years, this
part of the state has been forced to
fight other interests, mainly along tho
Platte and the Poudre and Big Thomp-
son water users invariably got the
worst end Of the deal from water off,
eials. Tho now suit may come from
Nebraska and it may cause the former
enemies Of Larimer county water ussrs
to come to their senses and aid in pro-
tecting the rights Of the state against
an outsider. In WrTl nD

won't you come down to the house
and have bite to eat?" He turned
and Lieber started to follow. "By
the way" said Gerry over his shoul-
der, you're not German, are you?'
Lieber stopped his horse. His eyes
wavered. NO." he said shortly, "I'm
not. I'm an American. After all,
don't think ought to waste any time.
Hours tell with starving stock. I'll
just get back in hurry, If you don't
mind. My men and the wire will be
here just that much sooner"
Gerry frowned again but this time
at himself. He felt that he had
stepped on another mans corns while
defending his own. "All right, Mr..
Lieber," he said. 1.-The sooner the
better. I'll do all 1 can to help"
The next morning the men came ac-
companied by oxcarts loaded with
fencing, posts and all. Lieber was
with them. He sat his horse through
the hot hours and drove his men stead
lily. Gerry threw himself into the work
as foreman. The fence grew with
amazing rapidity. From the bridge
they carried 1t in a straight line past
the house to the river. 1t cut off a
vast triangle whose two other sides
were held by the ditch and the river
BY night the work was almost done.
Gerry was tired and happy, but he
sighed. How many weeks of toll
would not he and Bonifacio have had
to put in to accomplish that fence!
Lieber stayed the night with them
and Gerry studied and initiated the
older mans impersonality. Liebsr
kept his eyes ON his plate or in the
vague distance while the women at
tended them and as soon as the busi-
ness of eating was over he retired to
the room that had been allotted to
him.
He was up early in the morning and
away to meet the coming herd. First
came the horses, neighing and quick
ening their weak trot at the smell of
grass. Far away and like distorted
echo sounded the lowing of the slower
cattle. The little herd of Fazenda
Flores caught the moaning cry and
lifted lazy heads. One or two lowed
back.
The horses We're rounded up at the
bridge to await the cattle. They
stretched thin necks toward the call
ing grass and moved restlessly about
with quick turns of eager heads and
low impatient whinnies. Lieber sat his
stable-fed stallion stolidly, but his eyes

Gerry turned to his work of tilling
the soil. He cut the best of the cane
and Bonifacio planted the joints at
slant with knowing hand. He sorted
the bolls of cotton. The women stu.
died the fiber and when 1t was long,
silky and tough they picked out the
seeds with care and boarded them, for
their time was not yet. One duty
urged another. The days passed rap.
idly.
One morning Gerry looked up from
his labor to fnd mounted figure just
behind him. An elderly man of forid
face sat restive stallion of Arab
strain. The strangers note was opu-
lence. From his Panama hat, thin and
light as paper, to his silver spurs and
the silver-mounted harness Of his
horse, wealth marked him. He was
dressed in white linen and his faring,
glossy riding-boots of embroidered
Russian leather stood out from the
white clothes and the whittier sleeps
fleece that served as saddle cloth, with
telling effect. In his hands was q
silver-mounted rawhide quirt. His
face was grave, his eyes blue and kind
ly. As Gerry looked at him he spoke,
"Pm Lieber from up the river"
Gerry started at the familiar Enk-
fish and frowned. At the frown the
strangers eyes shifted. II didn't come
down here to bother you" he went on
hastily. One Of my men told me
about the green grass and 1 couldn't
keep away. I've got cattle and horses
up my way and they're dying-starv-
ing. i came down to make a deal.
I've picked out q hundred and twenty
head with blood in 'em-horses and
cattle. If you'll take 'em and feed
'em through to the rains I'll give you
tel out Of the hundred. Some are too
far gone to save, I'm afraid" N
Gerry looked at his tiny plantations
which showed up meanly in the great
expanse Of waste pasture. "I'm sor-
ry," he said, "but I'm afraid / can't.
You see. can't afford to fence"
Lieber looked around and nodded:
That's all right" he said, 1--WE got 4

The smell of the wood fires triumphed
over every other odor.
McDougal had met Alan first in a
bare room at an African seaport. The
room was furnished with a chair and
a table. At the table sat Alan, busy
with final estimates and plans for sup
plies for his little army. The interview
was short. McDougal had asked for a
job and Alan had answered, Get out"
McDougal had repeated his request
and the rest of the story he told the
next morning before the resident mag
istrate in the chair and Alan in the
dock ~
''Aweel, your honor, 1t was this way:
went into Mr.. Wayne's Office and
asked him for worruk and he said, Get
out asked him again and he said,
I'll give you two to get out-One-
Two.' and with that he cooms on to
the table and flying through the air.
l had joost considered that it was best
should let him hit me FIST aimee tl:Gt
l might break him with justice when
he struck me face with both fists, and
his knee in the pit of me stummick.
And that's all, your honor, savin' the
Kafir that woke up to find watering
me and a rose bush, turn by turn
aboot.'
II suppose" said the magistrate,
covering his twitching mouth with his
hand, that was the Kafr l signed a
hospital pass for last night"
ut may weel be-" replied McDougal
dreamily. "It may weel be-"
"Well, McDougal, think this Is a
matter that can be settled out Of
court"
McDougal held up a vast hand in
interruption. Begging your pardon,
your honor, there'll be nae settling Of
this matter out Of coort between Mr.
Wayne and myself. Aimee is enough"
Justice and the prisoner In the dock
surrendered to laughter. McDougal
stood grave and unperturbed.
"What I meant" said the magis-
trate when he recovered, "is that Mr..
Wayne will probably give you job
and call it all square,"
That's It," said Alan.
II asked Mr.. Wayne for worruk and
II it's worruk he is giving me I'll nae
be denying 1t is fair answer" replied
McDougal, and forthwith became Ten
Percent Wayne's gang boss and under
study in the art Of driving men with
both fists and knee.
McDougal knocked out his third
pipe. .AThe dell Of country IL this y
he said; '1n the seas of 1t a life-prs-
server holds you up handy for sharks
and in the rivers does swimming save
your life? Nae. 1t gives you q meal
to the crocs."
They had lost black that day. He
had slipped from the bridge into the
water. He had started to swim to
shore and then suddenly disappeared
In q swirl. f.l ff
Conversationally, McDougal limited
himself to a sentence day in which
he summed up the one event that had
struck him as worthy of notice. Hav-
ing delivered himself Of his observa-
ton for the night he lit his pipe once
more and relapsed into silence.
McDougal's was companionable ST.
lence. Alan could feel him sitting
there in the dark, raw-boned and dour
but ready at the word Of command.

Under the broad dome of a mango
tree on the banks of an unnamed Afri-
can river Alan Wayne had pitched his
camp. The Selwyn tent and the pro-
jecting veranda fly were faded and
stained. The bobbinet mosquito cur
tains were creamed with age and serv-
ice. Two camp chairs and collapsi-
Bile table, battered but strong, were
placed before the tent. Over one Of
the chairs hung towel. On the ground
squatted take-down bath tub, half
filled with water. In the deep shadow
of the tree the pale green rot-proof
canvas OF the tent. the fly, the chairs
and bathtub, cleaned almost white.
On the farther side of the great
trunk of the tree was the masters
Kitchen, three stones and half-circle
of forked sticks driven into the ground.
On the sticks hung few pots and
pans, a saddle of buck, bits of fat and
q disreputable looking coffee-bag. Be
tween the stones was a bed of Goals.
Before them crouched red-fezzed
Zanzibari
From under a second tree, fifty
yards away. came the dull, rhythmic
pounding of wooden pestles in wooden
mortars. The eye could just distin-
guish the glistening naked torsos of
three blacks in motion. They were
singing a barbarous chantey. At the
pauses their arms went up and the
pestles came down together with a
thud. The blacks were pounding the
'kafir corn for the mems evening meal.
Down the river and almost out of
sight a black, spidery construction
reached out over the water-Alan's
latest bridge. Men swarmed on 1t.
Six o'clock and there came the trill
Of a whistle. Suddenly the bridge was
cleared. A babble of voices arose.
There was a cracking of twigs,
shufiiing of feet, here and there high,
excited cry. and then the men poured
Into camp. A din Of talk, held In
check for hours, arose. Glistening
black bodies danced to jerky, fantastic
cries to the cooks swelled the medley
Of sound. Through the camp stole the
acrid odor of toiling Africa.
Behind the men marched the fore
man, McDougal; behind him came
Alan. At sight of him the Zanxibari
Gprang into action. He poured tin
Of. hot water into the bath tub and
laid out an old flannel suit. Beside
the suit he placed clean underwear,
fresh socks ana, on the ground, pair
of slippers. ~
Alan stripped, bathed and dressed.
THE Zanzibari handed him cup Of
hot tea. BY the time the tea was drunk
,the table was freshly laid and Alan
sat down to a steaming bowl Of broth,
and dinner.
