Hermet News: C. C. Haskell, the
San Bernardino lawyer, who probably is
as well informed on California water
law as any attorney in the state, has
come out in opposition to the proposed
constitutional amendment known as the
water ana power bond scheme. Mr..
Haskell denounces the Plan as "a 81
gantic fraud and says:
1.-The so-called Wright Act of 1887
came near wrecking every district that
had anything to do with it. The Grape
land Irrigation district, Rialto, Easr
Riverside, Alessandro, Perris valley and
San Jacinto and Pleasant valley irriga-
tion districts were each and all failures
and were in litigation for over a quar-
ter of a century. They were bonanzas
and schemes of equity compared to the
gigantic fraud now proposed to be foist-
ed on the whole state of California by
this proposed amendment.

about to hop back to his bungalow.
''You have been so kind to me and
Eyes, and now Uncle Wiggily is
going to be kind to me! He is going
to let me nibble his ears!" suddenly
cried a savage voice, and out of the
bushes popped the Woozie Wolff
"Oh, / am not going to let you nib
bic my ears!'' cried the bunny. ~
"Oh, yes, you are!" howled the
Wolf He was just going to take a
taste of Uncle Wiggily's ears when, all
of sudden, the Teeter Bird flew down
in front of the Wolf and began nodding
his head as if saying: elbow do you
do?N
"Oh, how do you do?" growled the
Wolf. He was bad chap, but he
wanted to pretend he was very kind
and polite. And so when, he saw, as
he thought, the Sandpipcr bowing po-
litely to him, the Wifi naturally bowed
in return.
Bob, bob, bob, went the head of the
Tcetcr Bird, up and down as fast as
he could nod it. And his tail tipped
up also.
"Wcll, you certainly are good al
making bows, but | can be as polite as
you!' growled the Wolf. Then he
began to bow and nod his head! Fast
or and faster the Tccter Bird nodded
| outdone, nodded also faster and faster
| likewise.
Then, suddenly, the Wolf became
| dizzy from nodding his head SO quickly
and down he fell to the ground.
| "Now's your chance, Uncle Wiggily
Hop homc!" cried the Sandpipcr, ant
away ran the bunny safe and sound

Iia! Ila!' laughed the Tcctcr Bird
as he flew away, leaving the dizzy
Wolf on the ground. Gas if you coult
bob your head as fast as | bob mine

And it was more than an hour be
fore the Wolf could get up and staggc
away, and by this time the bunny wa
safe at home. Then the Tcctcr Biz,
was happy because lie had done tn,
rabbit favor.

the laughing answer. 'Somc of my
other names are Spotted Sandpipcr, or

and not 'swcct! sweet as you seemed
TO think.
"Oh. laughed Uncle Wiggily, as a
rather long-legged bird, with long
bill, wearing white feathers under
meath aud brown on his back, with spots
all over him, hoped along the ground.
Aud when the bird stood still and
looked at tho bunny, Uncle Wigglly
saw the feathcred chap bobbing his
tail and bowing his head UP and down,
faster aud faster all the while.
ooh, how do you do Glad TO meet
YOU! hope you arc wclll' and Uncle
Wicgily bowed bis head, for he thought
the bird was bowling TO him. And the
bunny also twinklcd his pink nose.
But the bird kept on tectcring his
tail and uoddiug his head until Uncle
Wicgily began TO get neck ache from
irving TO bow back politely as often
as the bird bowed TO him.
