The Indian Office and Commits
sioner Hall Doing Good Work.
Much Impotence has been felt
with the Chippewa Commission
for their hardness in removing the
Mile Laos band of Indians from
this county as the law directs.
Upon the appointment Of Hon.
d. S. Hall as chairman of this
commission, the people Of this
county had reason to believe that
vigorous measures would be taken
to accomplish one Of the principal
objects of the commission. Mr..
Hall went earnestly at work for
this purpose, visited the Indians
as well as those whom he thought
would have influence and could as
sist him with the work in hand.
10 make a long story short. about
the middle of September last the
Indians were all gathered at the
outlet. of Mile Laos lake for a
council and talk, with view of at
once moving to the White Earth
reservation. Everything was pro
ceeding satisfactory. The Indians
showing every evidence of a dis
position to do what every one
knows they must eventually do,
and what will so materially better
their condition, viz: Move to
White Earth. When ssNew
Richmond" appeared upon the
field. A messenger, sent by Nate
Richardson and Leon Houde from
Little Falls, camped down among
the Indians there assembled and
began to poison their minds.
Armed with letters from the afore-
said worthless telling them not: to
move step towards White Earth
until advised SO to do by them,
Richardson and Houde.) This
confused the Indians and blocked
the work for the time being. It
is strange and almost unaccount-
able that men of SO much apparent
intelligence should worry and mis-
lead these benighted, poverty
stricken wards of the government.
But cupidity goes a great ways
with some people. For the purpose
OF making few paltry dollars for
themselves, they would allow the
Mile Laos band to struggle with
ignorance and poverty to the great
annoyance of honest settlers and
their families. It is hard to get
up sentiment for these Indians.
The government offers to give
them better land than they have
now, assist them to build houses,
break land, &C., as well as furnish
them sufficient provisions to live
on until they can raise it from
their farms. How a white man
would Jump at this opportunity.
The commission has not given up
the idea Of accomplishing the work
before them, but the settlers and
all interested should know Just
who to. charge this delay and ul-
innate failure, if such should
prove the result. NM

Governor Humphreys message to the
legislature, which will be found on the
inside pages of this issue. is broad,
comprehensive and mastery document
and paper Of interest to all citizens of
Kansas. 1t is shown that the general
condition of the state is steadily imprOv-
ing, the public institutions found to be
in stable condition. and that the state is
fast regaining its former excellent tinan-
cial condition.
His suggestions as to needed changes
in the laws, and especially in regard to
municipalities voting aid. are wise. and
worthy the earnest consideration of our
lawmakers. In the matter of proposed
laws covering judgments more liberal to
mortgagOrs. he warns the legislators
that the good name and honor of the
state. and her high standard of credit
both at home and abroad, demands the
strict observance of equal and exact JUS
tice in respect to the holders Of Obliga-
tons.
He believes our system of local govern
ment is entirely too complicated and eX-
pensive, and while imposing limitations
upon the power of municipalities to in
cur Indebtedness. he believes it would be
we'll to inquire if the ordinary expense of
conducting their affairs may not be re-
duced.
While he favors liberal appropriations
for the maintenance of the various be-
nevOlent and educational institutions.
yet he recommends economical admin
istration. and that all appropriations be
with Il due regard for the con-
dition of the taxpayers of the state.
The message is worth the perusal of
all our people.

NOTES from the minutes of the State
Board of Agriculture: Practical Irri-
cation by Private Methods was the title
of a paper by John L. Finley of Dodge
City. The writer disapproved scientific
irrigation and said some sharp things
about scientists and scientific investiga-
ton. He dealt with the question only in
reference to southwestern Kansas. and he
thought that the legislature had only to
permit townships to vote bonds to irri-
gate the lands, to insure success. The un.
'derflow system he said was the only prac-
tical method. The last paper was by
John Goodwine of DodgeCity on ''Prac-
tical Irrigation by Private Methods from
Wells" He advocated the digging of a
well to the underflow and raising the
water to the surface by means of wind
power and storing it in tanks. He said
that in this way one well would water
from ten to thirty acres.

1t is fallacy to suppose that because q
certain political element has power ab-
stractly, that its apparent right should
be enforced at all hazards, as that
method would certainly be disas-
trous in promoting political inter-
ests and would not achieve political VIC
tory necessarily.
Simply absolute blindness of despera-
ton in the present senatorial contest
would omit to take account of the late
instructions of conventions. and the rep
resentative wishes Of the masses. Timid-
ity and vacillation are always danger
Gus, and there can be no difference OF
opinion as to what constitutes courage in
the action of the legislature in the COM
ing senatorial nomination. The better
part of valOr is discretion, always; and
not to heed this requirement now is but
to augment existing perils.
CompulsiOn can never change mems
wishes and opinions, and discipline and
Intimidation can never achieve this
change successfully. Combinations and
the party lash can not silence the vital
and important fact that John j. Ingalls,
is first in the hearts of kansans.
There is no courage in seeking to justi-
fy error; there is in cOnfessing mistakes.
But there is courage and sense in avoid
ing any doubtful legislation, and in re-
cosnizing the wishes of the masses of the
voters. That the able and brilliant In
gals is their choice in the nomination
for senator, and that he is in all respects
the ideal candidate. can not be doubted.
The first daty, and the highest wisdom
of the hour, lies in the recognition of the
expediency Of this nomination, and the
sooner this view is accepted the better it
will be for Kansas and for the country.

SAYS The Chicago Inter- Ocean,: The
situation in Kansas has been much mis-
understood. No democratic victory was
won in that state at the last election. The
whole republican state ticket was elected
by fair majority, the senate has an
overwhelming republican majority, the
alliance men rule i'm the house. there be-
ing ninety of them to but six regular
democrats and one prohibition democrat,
the remainder of the l25 members being
republicans. So that the democrats
have gained nothing. The amount of
democratic cackling is wholly dispropOr-
toned to the size of the Kansas egg,
which is very small affair. The only
interesting question relative to the Kan
sas legislature is rs to its action Oh the
United States senator. 1t seems utterly
impertineHt that the democrats should
expect to influence the choice of either
house. They are but a feeble minority
in either body, and a feeble minority
through the state. Whatever changes
the politics of Kansas may undergo. it is
in no danger of becoming democratic.
The republicans hold majority in one
house. the alliance men in the other: the
democrats are few in number In either
house. Two thirds of the alliance men
in the house are of republican derivation;
it is probable that they still agree, and
to the end of their lives will agree with
nearly every doctrine laid down in the
Chicago platform. The difference at
present existing between them aud the
regular republicans are less as to what
national policy should be pursued than
as to which of several ultimately concur
rent branches of policy should first be
followed. We mention these things for
the consolation of certain republicans
who dread the effect of democratic VIC
tory In Kansas There has been no
democratic victory in Kansas. There are
no signs that there ever will be demo-
cratic victory in Kansas

THE following is Il good specimen of
frontier brag as given by man writing
from Kansas to his friends back east
''This is. indeed. a wonderful country.
Every hamlet is town, every town Il
city, every farm ranch, every barnyard
a corral, every mound mountain and
every man liar" Liars or no liars. if
there is man in the east who doesn't
believe that jack rabbits are thicker on
these prairies than holes in sieve, he is
another. We have railroad man s word
for it that he saw more than two hundred
in one drove, and railroad people never
lie. However, we expect some one to
make a lie of it.

KANSAS CITY Globe: The resolutions
condemnins ingalls, adopted by the Ma
tional Citizens Alliance have so much
of ku-kluX and white cap ring about
them as to disgust. these new fledged
politicians will find. sensible, thinking
people. When the alliance talks of re-
firing political chameleon to the shades
of political hades' and the like. it shows
personal luminosity and not the striving
after principle or good of the state.''

that Douglas Putnam was one of the
two brothers who rode from Ohio to
New Haven. Conn.,, on horseback in 1929
and entered Yale college in the autumn
Of the year; that at the close of the
junior year their father died and only
one Of the brothers could be spared to
pursue the studies of the senior year
while the elder Douglas was kept at
home to care for the family and estate
This is an interesting bit of story. and
the action of the corporation of Yale
university in voting to restore him to his
class standing and bestow the degree
thus honorably sacrificed is touching
and romantic incident. Several thoughts
are suggested to the rejecting collegiate
mind thereby. One of them is that.
very likely, if Douglas Putnam.
aged eighty-four years. were examined
upon the branches taught at Yale dur
ing the senior years sixty-four years
ago he would not attain an average
marking of any thing near one hum
dred per cent. for his answers. But
the next thought is that just as likely,
if the other six surviving members Of
the class of 1926. who actually went
through with those studies and stood
examinations upon them, were now to
be submitted to the same ordeal they
would succeed no better than the newly
graduated member would do. Still an.
other thought in the same line: How
many Yale graduates of the class of 1890
could sustain creditable examination
of the studies pursued by the class of
1926?
When once the scholastic mind begins
to ponder in this way there is no visible
stopping place. Time brings many
changes. Four years are but a small
fraction of four score. One year more
or less in the great school at New Haven

to hazard that the young man who rode

man of liberal education" than are his
surviving classmates who spent one
year more at Yale than he did.
