INVESTIGATION

Acting Secretary Hitchcock of
the interior department has an

thorough investigation made in

This announcement was made in
response to a request from the
Dawes commission as follows:
"Muskogee, |. T., Aug. %.
To Secretary of the Interior,

spread and newspaper criticisms

MACARONI WHEAT
Flour Made From This Variety
Is Meeting With
Great Favor.

The grain growers of North
Dakota who are interested in the
raising of macaroni wheat have
started a campaign looking to the
popularizing of that grain. They
have introduced samples Of the
-four made from it into number
of different places, and from all
the testimony has been favor
able. The Fargo Forum recently
published a number of express
sions of opinion from different
individuals, among them a num-
Der of women who had made
bread from it. None of them
were unfavorable, and some pre-
ferred the -four made from mac
aroni wheat.

Disturbance at Walker Will
Hurry Appointment to
National Guard.
APPOINTMENT MAY BE MADE I'm
NEXT FEW WEEKS.
Timber Matter and Whiskey
Have Irritated the Indians
at Walker.

The chances for the Bemidjj
independent militia getting into
the state national guard IN the
near future are considered ex-
cellent just now. The fact that
eleven companies will IN all
probability be dropped from
the organization, having failed to
obtain standings sufficiently high
at the recent encampment and
inspection, brings the hopes OF
the locals to a high notch.
The threatened Indian upris-
ing at Walker, emphasizing as it
does statements made to the
governor relative to Bemidji's
central location as regards In
dian reservations, will also hurry
the appointment Of the local com
pany as a member Of the national
guard. The local militia can get
to the scene Of the threatened
disturbance sooner than any
other company in the state, and
the same condition of affairs
exist as regards three other
Northern Minnesota Indian re-
serves, where there is liable to
be trouble at any time.
Timber matters and whiskey
have irritated the Indians near
Walker. They have been dis
grultled over several minor
grievances recently and only
wanted a leader to rise in open
warfare. The leader has been
supplied in the person of a form
er chief of the Indian police on
the reservation, but more recent
ly a prisoner at Duluth on a
charge of selling LIQUOR to the In
dians. He is an influential man
among the Indians, and his fore
fathers we're kings of the
Chippewas. Gathered about him
are several young bloods who are
desirous Of trouble. Older mer
in the tribe, however, are de-
sirous of peace, and it is thought
likely that their wiser council
will prevail. The Indians have
decided to forward a petition to
Washington, asking for the re
moyal Of the agent, the heae
clerk and several Of the minol
employees. Until the result O
this petition is made known it is
thought that no further actor
will be taken on the part of the
Indians.

marking the papers of the appi
cants for teachers certificates
have finished their work, and the
report of the examination has

Gates were granted to Beltrami
county, which received only six.

They Are Still at the Front.

A Washington statistician has discov.
cred that seventy seven members of the
Fifty Eighth Congress- twenty-six Sen
ators and fifty-one Representatives
were soldiers in the civil war Forty
seven were in the Union and thirty in
the Confederate army. Civil war SOL
diery form more than 16 per cent of the
total membership of Congress.
The civil war ended more than thirty
eight years ago. The present average
age of these former soldiers is not stated
But the boy of 16 who went into the
army for few months only in 1865 is
now "a. The young man of 20 who en-
listed in 1851 is now SO. Probably the
average age of the civil war soldiers in
Congress is at least So.
There is somewhat widely prevalent
popular impression increased by GER
tain tendencies in commence and indus
try-that this is an age at which a man
is about worn out. There is also an i'm
preston, sedulously fostered by pro-
fessional peace advocates, that active
soldering is an occupation that saps
Vitality as do few others.
Yet these soldier members of Congress
are evidently not worn out. They are
so far from it-they have so much
strength left-that they are able to con-
vince groups of their fellow citizens
comprising thousands and even millions
of their ability to do effectively the hard
work-for it is hard work-of national
legislator
These old soldier members of Congress
illustrate the truth that it is not work
that kills, and that the young man that
spares himself that he may live long is
taking the wrong method and wasting
instead Of saving. These men did not
spare themselves in their youth.
When their country-or what they
believed their country-called for young
men to take risks and do hard work
they went to the front. They strove
and spared not. And after more than a
generation they are still able to COM
mand confidence in their ability to do
hard woik-still at the front. Chicago

"Take care of the pennies and the

Large things are but an aggregation
of small things. If we take care of the
small things we are in effect taking
care of the large things which the small
things combine to make.
Take care of what you eat, when you
eat, and how you eat, and your stomach
will take care of itself. But who takes
care of such trivial things9 That is
why, someday, the majority of people
have to take care of the stomach. When
that day comes, there is no aid so effec-
