EVOLUTION OF POOR Lo.

-
James Barton Adams In Denver Post
Lo! the poor Indian whose untutored mind
In clouds once saw the face OF God on
And heard His voice In every passing wind.
And in the great sun say His blazing
He isn't that way any more; he's not
Untutored now to any marked degree;
In mingling with the paleface hordes he's
Well onto things. Has grasped the golden
And ops'd the gate to learnins's wondrous
And learned a heap OF things-that's what
he hath!
For flashing tomahawks and cleaning
For scenes of battle as in days of -yore,
For paieface hair OF varied lengths and
No longer doth he decorate his face
Hi YIN sba mucous in qbsssa,SsssSs' nor bncS 1Idn imp p5iS1a
All! no, he wants no more of that in
No longer down his brunette back doth
The braided scalplock. a la WI Ting Fang.
Sweet civilization beckoned, and he camel
She touched his eyes; they opened and he
She taught him all the mysteries of the
game
To science known as poker, stud and
Unto his lips her hand the nectar placed
That comes from where the maid of song
was bred;
His neither limbs in p~aleface pawnts she
cased
And dropped a Derby crown upon his
head,
snatched from his hand the calumet and
set
Between his lips the fragrant cigarette.
She taught him how 70 frame effective
lies
When truth seemed weak TO serve his
purpose well,
To voice swear-words OF usual western
size,
In shirt of severed back 20 cut a swell,
To coVet goods that were the property
OF others and 10 swipe them at his will
All! yes, the willy red man found the key,
His once quite savage and untutored mind
Is up to date, or just a lap behind.

NAILED ooRn EoR Goon.

The supreme court decision In the
Omaha police commission case may be
pronounced in parliamentary language
a mailer. Once and for all time the
court has affirmed that the original de-
cision settled the case, which cannot be
reopened by juggling the parties or
changing the form of the suit In other
words, a case once adjudged by the su-
preme court and the decree entered
after formal hearing and rehearing is
adjudged for good. This principle has
beer asserted and reasserted by The
Bee ever at the risk of a forced contri-
button of $500 into the state school fund.
The final adjudication of the issues
raised is gratifying to the people of
Omaha for many reasons. The per-
petual contention over the legality Of
the police commission has seriously i'm
paired the efficiency and usefulness Of
police and fire departments by keeping
the members of these departments under
the menace Of removal or degradation
from rank. 1t has also had a tendency to
diminish popular respect Ior the pollce
as officers of the law and prevented
some reforms that would have been in
a~ugurated but for the uncertainty Of
tenure of khe commission and the men
under 1t.
AS a factor in politics the scope and
influence of the police commission has
always been overrated. While the com
mission is In position to make friends,
it is also compelled to make enemies
who are often more active than friends,
From the broad standpoint Of good
government the settlement Of the police
commission muddle, insuring home rule
at least for the coming year, must be
satisfactory to all who are not biased
by personal interest or partisan preju-
dice.

Those who have foolishly felt themselves
called on to defend. not the army in the

certain Of the officers and men nave been
charged, must feel, after reading President
Roosevelt's letter to Bishop Lawrence, as
though they had been wasting their time.
There is probably no more devoted friend

refuses to think that a thing Is right be-

that those who denounce a wrongful act
