        Correct me if I'm wrong, but Cooper is also a man of humility, 
and has said, "Harry, the last thing I want you to worry about is some 
city slicker in your town relieving himself upstream."  Seems to me that 
when Sherrif Truman has a good reason to bust a man for murder, which is 
in his jurisdiction, he's got every right, even when Cooper feels the 
sherrif may be wrong.  And Cooper at least has the horse sense to defer, 
even if he (Cooper) hasn't made HIS case yet.
