How entirely lovely our red birds.
or cardinals, are these spring davs.
They have been with lis all winter. of
course, and their happy song of good
cheer! good cheer. good cheer!" has
made the winter days seems brighter.
Now that spring has come the gallant
red fellows seem almost to BURST
their throats in song, keeping up their
music from morning until night The
crimson beauty of the male is fairly
startling, but what a sweetness there
Is about the demure modeSv of the
female. or all our birds, Observer
loves the cardinals the most dearly
and sometimes he thinks his affection
is returned, for they build their nests
almost under his very nose-in his rose
bushes and vines and nearest trees.
Right now one pair that has been SER
enading him all winter seems to be
hunting a location for a summer home.
one pair year or two ago built in
a grape vine on the porch, and he
could look Mrs. Redbrd right in the
eye as she sat in her nest.
The song sparrows are making sweet
melody now, and there are few more
delightful bird songs than the music
OF this dainty little fellow with the
brown escutcheon on his breast. The
bluebirds are singing, too, but they
seem to prefer the suburbs to the
center of the town.
How many persons are there in the
neighborhood who give interested at
tention to the doings of the birds and
get the pleasure that comes thereby d?
There are many winter birds and those
that migrate which afford us entertain
ment while our summer birds are still
down South. Some weeks ago OBJ
server had visit from a little covev
of strange birds-little fellows that
had lovely breasts of delicate rose
pink and touch of the same color on
the rump. He didn't know them a.
first, but his bird books told him that
he was seeing rare feathered visitor.
They were snowflakes, which come in
from the far North occasionally and
drop down for little while Just about
as the first snowhakeS of a coming
storm flutter down. They are not often
seen here, and it was quite worth while
to have made their acquaintance.
From time to time, now, our bird
friends from the South will be coming
back home. Let us give them hearty
welcome and protecting friendship.
If it were not for the birds, this
earth would not be habitable. Did not
the insect-eating birds do their duty,
We could not see the sun for the vast
swarms of flies and bugs and gnats
that would fill the air. If the seed
eaters should all quit, the weeds would
propagate themselves so tremendously
the edible grains and vegetables
would not be able to find space upon
the earth in which to bring forth q
harvest.
Let us all be friends to the birds.

ness, it was a matter between
Whistler and Flodquist, and that
Trego was not responsible for that
unless it could be shown that Trego
suggested or advised 1t or had some
thing to do with putting it there.
The jury returned a verdict in
favor of Mr.. Trego in about half an
hour.
G. F. Hansbrough was Mr.. Trego's
attorney and he had made careful
preparation of every phase of the
case and each phase Of it was dis
posed of by both the court and the
jury just about as Mr.. Hansbrough
advised his client that 1t should be.
The law on each point of the case as
cited to Mr.. Trego in the study of
the case before the trial, was the
basis of the courts instructions at
the close Of the case. 1t was tried in
a friendly spirit turnout, Trego
claiming to have been Whislers
friend all the time, and witnesses
and documents brought by both
sides proved that he was consist
ent friend, giving Whistler the bene-
fit of doubt and helping him when
he could.
Nine jurors could have returned
verdict, but Trego's vindication
was made stronger by the fact that
the verdict was the voice of twelve,
and unanimous.

Whistler needed her to make new
affidavit to take the place of the on
that was lost. 1t was a patheti
story turnout, and was intended t.
show the public that from Whistler
point of view he was victim Of {
train of misfortunes.,
At the trial, Whistler admitted the
interviews with Trego, but denied
that he had told him all that was
contained in the story. He said thai
he did not go direct to prison at the
time Trego had stated in his article
but had only gone to Weiser to be
ready to surrender when wanted
and that his lawyer, J.. H. Hawley
had arranged to present the affidavit
to the pardon board in the hope OF
getting him pardoned before enter
ing the prison. He denied that the
affidavit had ever been lost or that
he had told Trego that he ever ap-
piled for new one, tho he testified
that the girl had gone to Texas. He
showed that copy of the article as
published by Trego with the. state
ment as to the fire having been at
Rexburg, had been filed with the
pardon board and had puzzled them
and led them to think that there had
been other fires of possible incendi-
airy origin and Whistler might be a
"firebug." He testified that the par
don board declined to give his
lawyer the hearing on the case solely
because of this article containing
the references to fires at Rexburg
and Blackfoot. The circumstances
described as attending the Weiser
case read "Rexburg," and the board
would have to believe that two fires,
two prosecutions and two appeals to
the supreme court had happened at
the same time, or know that it was a
mistake as to location, but Whistler
maintained that Trego's mistake Cor
willful falsification) had been the
cause of his Imprisonment for eight
months, and on this he based his
claim for damage. Whisler's wit
nesses testified that they told Trego
at different times that he had made
mistakes in his article and that they
were keeping Whistler from securing
his liberty but that he made no move
to correct or retract his statement
until seven months afterwards when
the proof was laid on his desk in the
form of aff1davits from we'll known
men of Rexburg, and then he wrote
two letters to the attorney general
and the pardon board, acknowledge
ing his mistake, and on receipt Of
these statements Whistler was re-
leased.
Trego stated that when Whistler
was telling him about his troubles,
most of his talk was about Rexburg,
and he misunderstood where it hap
pened. He admitted that members
of Whisler's family had told him his
article was wrong, but because he
had obtained the information from
Whistler himself, he thought it must
be correct, and because of the fact
that they told him that all of the
article was wrong and that every
statement in it was false he did not
consider them worthy Of notice when
they said such things, but merely re-
piled that they would have to prove
it before he would change state

CONGRESS MAY SOLVE
D. C.-|MD. DISPUTE
Threat to Withhold State Road
Funds May Force Auto Reciproc-
ity With District.

The longtime disagreement between
Maryland and the District OF Columbia
over automobile tag reciprocity is in a
fair way to be settled by congressional
action. 1t is proposed to include in the
agricultural appropriation bill a proviso
that none Of the s29.o00.00O carried for
state aid in road building shall go to
any state that does not extend reciproc-
ity in the matter of motor licenses to
all other states and the District of
Columbia. This it is pointed out. would
mean a great deal to tourists. 1t is
not expected that Maryland or any other
state would refuse reciprocity If facing
the loss of the millions they have been
getting in federal aid for road building
since 1916.
This legislative proposal is to he Of
fered as an amendment when the Senate
subcommittee of the finance committee
has the agricultural bill under considera-
ton. Representative Curry of Califor-
MIA will urge this amendment. and
claims that if the Senate will approve
it. AS he confidently expects. he is
assured of its acceptance in the House.
This proposal was not advanced in
the House, where the agricultural bill
is to be finally voted on today. because
of the desire to expedite completion of
the measure before the Christmas recess.
Representative Curry insists that there
has been no serious OBJECTION to the
proposal. and instead he has received
emphatic Endorsement from many promi-
neht members.
