ABBOTT POEMS
PLEASED JONES

1t was with sincere sorrow I read
OF the death Of our old friend N. G.
Abbott.
Although not intimately acquainted
with him, when we lived near each
other, | learned to know him more
fully by reading his articles in The
News. While he was living in Eureka
Springs, Ark, his inconsistencies for
the cid Sod" Gods country, could
easily be detected in his many re-
miniscenses, of the good old days
spent in the prime of life, in Wiscon-
sin.
/ | think every one fortunate enough
to have ever live in that part of Gods
footstool and moved away, has times
Of deep longing to be back once more,
especially when their hair begins to
whiten. My father, who passed his
last days in an Odd Fellows Home in
Concord, N. H., used to say in his let
ters to me, speaking of the old home
in Merrimack, "There is no place
where the sun and stars shine so
bright"
| am sure Mr.. Abbott felt this call
of the old camping grounds, and
rejo ced for him when he was enabled
to return, and pass the few days left
him in the old surroundings.
| think the poem published in The
News "The Close, as fine a poem
as I ever read, and one showing great
talent of the writer. No doubt he has
other unpublished gems, and it will be
criminal to have them lost to the
world for lack of publication.
l know from one poem written
while in Eureka Springs and publish
ed in these columns, that Mr.. Alb
bolt keenly felt the lack of public APP
probation of the true worth of his
efforts, and was intending to write
personally, a word of praise and en-
couragement, but l neglected doig So,
1t is like buying flowers for the dead,
whom you have neglected while liv-
ing. HIS death leaves large gap to
be filled in these columns and [ hope
his mantle will fall on some one
worthy Of it.
BY the way l notice he was born in
another good old state, the Old Gran
ite state, in 1853, and in one of his
communications he mentioned the
fact that his father was Justice Of
Peace, in Colebrook, N. H., in 1S49.
In that same year l commenced this
life in Lebanon, N. H. Colebrook is
in the extreme northern part Of the
state and very cold.
George BALDWIN, formerly of the
firm of Tabor &c Baldwin, stock and
grain buyers at Merrimack, and who
was like that other George in respect
to truthmulness, told me he had made
lemonade in July, using snow from
the ground in place of ice. He was
living at the time, and stills is at Pitts
burg, near Colebrook, Something
read in a paper corroborates this
statement of George. A traveller pass
ing along the road, saw woman dig
ging in the snowbank by the side Of
the road, and asked her what she was
digging for, and she answered, ito
get some of last years snow as | want
to wash and last years snow is soft.
| er than this I had also intended to
spring this on Abbott, but as Byron
| saws Ill is paved with good in
! tentions." K

CASHMERE MASONIC
TEMPLE DEDICATED

Cashmere was the Mecca for the
Masons of the Valley and Big Bend
country on Wednesday evening. when
the new temple at that place was
dedicated.
This edifice, the foundatiop of
which was started some years ago.
was but recently completed, being dc
layed by the conditions brought on by
the war. 1t is a handsome two-story
structure on the main business street
of the city. The first floor is
splendid store which is leased at
nice rental and brings the temple as
sociaton steady income The sec
ond floor provides a large lodge room
with several ante-rooms and prop
erty-rooms and is also provided with
a few office suites which are rented
to professional men. The lodge room
is nicely finished and commodious,
providing a splendid homo for the or
ganization.
The dedication meeting opened
Wednesday afternoon with initiatory
work. At six o'clock banquet was
served by the ladies of the auxiliary
organization, the Stars, at the Grange
hall few doors away. This banquet
was "A feature which deserves special
mention. The ladies having it in
charge proved themselves to be past
worthy matrons in the art and all
the banquetors were profuse in their
praise of their efforts.
Following the banquet all repaired
again to the lodge room and the dedi-
| catory services took place, conducted
| by Grand Master T. f. Skaggs Of
| Olympia and others among whom
were Grand Secretary Horace W. Ty-
Ter of Tacoma, Junior Grand Warden
James Mccormick and Standard
Bearer Raymond B. Green and the
various Past Masters of the Cash
mere and visiting lodges. This was
followed by work in the third degree
put on by Riverside Lodge of Wen
atchee. The Wenatchee team proved
to be one of the best that it had been
the privilege of those present to wit

The dedication and other feature
were successful in every way. Dele

". i. DAFFRON
FOUND GUILTY BY
SUPERIOR COURT
SALACIOtS DETAILS OF CASE
ARE MORBIDLY GLOATED
OVER BY COURTROOM FULL
OF SPECTATORS.

William H. Daffron, brakeman for
the Great Northern, formerly run
ming on the Mansfield branch, was
found guilty by a jury in the supef-
ior court Thursday, upon the charge
Of attempted assault.
The complaining witness. who is
only 10 years of age, was married
shortly after the alleged ofrense was
committed. In the hearing of the
case. which lasted for two davs.
every salacious detail of the attcmpt-
cd crime was brought out by the wit
nessees, and thoroughly discussed by
the attorneys.
In spite of the prurient nature Of
the testimony. the court room WAS
filled with an audience composed
of large majority of women. Most
of them were young, but there was Il
sprinkling of matrons, several bring
ing infant children with them. intent
apparently upon taking in every re-
voting detail and anecdote connected
with the case.
DR.. F. F.. Culp and Dr. Fl. BacI'
were called upon to testify as to whe-
ther an assault was committed, the
contention of both sides being that
the attempt was made but not con
summated The testimony of the ply
sicians was devoted to a description
Of the physiological and pathological
phases of the case, and the question
as to how to determine definitely whe-
ther an assault had actuallv been
committed, was argued at consider
able length, to the huge enjoyment
and delectation of the spectators
as evinced by their audible expires
sions.
Prosecuting Attorney w. F. Whit
ney and Deputy Prosecuting Attor-
ney A. n. Corbin conducted the case
for the state. and Barrows. Hanna &
Lebeck defended Daffron. The jury
arrived at a verdict few minutes af-
ter retiring.

INCREASED DEMAND
FOR DRAFT HORSES
Horse Not Supplanted by Tractor
Large Farms Need Both.

There is shortage of draft
horses of size and quality in this
country and it will pay to breed
mares this spring to stations of one
of the draft breeds" says C. NJ. Hub
bard, livestock specialist of the State
College.
The rising prices and increased
demand for draft horses, indicate
plainly a shortage of these animals.
1t will be four years before the colts
bred this spring will be of work age.
and in the meantime our draft horse
shortage will have become acute and
prices still higher.
Farmers are awakening to the
fact that horse power in the form of
horses is the most efficient power
available, that will run for ten or
even twelve years without repairing.
Professor w. F. Handschin of the
University of Illinois says that in
general, corn belt farms must pro-
uute IfV OT more acres OF crops IN or
der to justify the purchasing of a
tractor Even on these farms he
finds that 20 per cent represents
practically the displacement of
horses because the introduction of
tractors on farms having the above
cropping area. This shows that the
draft horse is still very necessary
item even in sections where tractors
work to the best advantage.
"When breeding mares to stations
of one of the draft breeds. choose a
sire of size, quality, correct conform
alton and possessing good feet and
legs. Wide fiat cannons are prereq-
uiste of good sire. NO feet and
legs. no horse never was truer than
it is today. Remember that no mat
ter how good top the stallion may
possess do not use him unless he is
right in his feet and legs. 1t will
pay the farmer to raise a few good
draft colts during the next three or
four years"

TWO FIRES IN
FORESTS TUESDAY,;
FIRST OF SEASON
EAST END OF ICICLE RIDGE
AND BEAVER CREEK DIVIDES
SEND UP BIG SMOKES: CON.
SIDERABLE DAMAGE.

Two forest fires of considerable
proportions attracted the attention of
people of this community Tuesday.
most noticeable here in the city be
ing that at the east end of Iccle
Ridge, a couple miles southwest Of
town. The other, near Camp 1S Of
the Great Northern Lumber Co.. was
not seen from the city.
The fire of Icicle Ridge started. ac-
cording to John S Brender, forestry
service, from small fire which A. ".
Heidrich, Cascade Orchards, had
started to burn some rubbish near
his buildings. The wind suddenly
coming up, his barn was endangered.
and the fire spread rapidly, being
driven up the side of the mountain a
distance of about a mile to the snow
line, and widening out to about a half
mile in places. Mr.. Brender and
Heidrch worked with the fire all
Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday
morning Heidrich had a crew at work
and that day it seemed to have been
brought under control.
The fire at Camp Is started from
the usual cleanup fire by which tree
tops and leavings from the logging
operations are cleared away in com
pliance with government regulations.
The lumber company had a good crew
present, and though the fire spread to
considerable extent, at last report, It
was well under control, though not
until it had burned three hatcars.
some logs and lumber
These two instances show how dan
gerous conditions are, and it is prob
able that slash burning will have to
be entirely discontinued at once. \
great amount of damage resulted
from the fire on lcicle Ridge from
the destruction of young trees The
same probably is true of the fire at
Camp IS.

CASE OF SEVEN
TURKEYS COMES TO
HIGH COURT
GRI' BSTAkE AGREEMENT RE-
SUITS IN LITIGATION AND
AN APPEAL Is TAKEN TO ST.
PERIOR COURT.

The case of the seven turkeys has
been appealed from the justice court
at Chelan to the superior court of
Chelan county by the defendant, A.
Y. Kinney, who is evidently not salts
fed with the decision rendered in the
lower court by Justice o. A. Hoag
According to the history of the case
as told in the appeal it appears that
over two years ago c. D. Putnam en-
tered into an agreement with A. "
Kinney and his wife. Mary Kinney
under the terms of which Putnam
was to grub-stake the Kinneys to
seven turkeys. At the end of the
two years it was agreed that the or
ienial seven turkeys were to be re-
turned to Putnam, together with one
half the increase, if there was any
such.
Putnam, in commencing the suit
before Justice Hoag. alleged that
when the time specified in the agree.
ment had expired he asked for the re-
turn of the seven turkeys with one
half the increase. Failing to receive
a settlement. he made an attempt to
get the original seven turkeys back
but atfirms that the defendants re-
fused to return even these valuable
birds, though no reason for such a
course is given in the complaint.
Accordingly on March 25, 1920, a
replevin was issued by Justice Hoag
upon the application of Putnam, and
Deputy Sheriff Jesse Elmore execut-
ed the same by due process of law,
taking possession of the seven tur-
keys in question and holding them
until the date of the trial, April 10.
After hearing the evidence in the
case, Justice Hoag decreed that the
seven turkeys should be awarded to
the plaintiff, C. D. Putnam, together
with the costs of the suit, amounting
to S2S.45.
The defendant, A.V. Kinney. there
upon appealed to the superior court,
depositing 500 cash bond as provid-
ed in such cases.

was run slow down, and that was
when the chairman called for nomi-

combination, because when three
nominations had been made there
was a lull in the proceedings, and
Chairman Brown had to beg for a
fourth nomination.

that he had no candidate for the po-

the best interests of the Republican
party to await the nomination of a
candidate for president before nam
ing the committeeman.
Col. W. L. Lemon, of Yakima, who
had himself been prominently men

delegates to Chicago be instructed to
vote for Guy f. Kelly for national
