Mr.. Cohen was a New York diamond
merchant who came to Los Angeles
about two years ago for his health.
He built home in this city and in
vested largely in real estate.
The funeral will take place from the

mans standard: he's a differently con-
stituted creature. It spoils him. I
don't believe in schools where the In
dian is taught white man fashion or
white man things ] don't believe in
schools such as we have at Riverside.
1T may be all right for the Sioux
or the Apaches; 1 am not an expert
on them and don't claim to be. But
1 know what is good for our Indian
and what he wants. And he doesn't
want higher education.
ut spoils 'em. An Indian goes to
school and learns lot of things that
are of no benefit to him and also
learns to drink whisky and to have fine
theories. He goes back to the range
and the others hoot at him.
you can't uplift the race by raising
few away above the level of the
mass. Raise the mass, a. little at
time, but raise 'em all the same de-
gree and at the same time.
Don't single out a few and get the
notion into them that they will be
preachers or literary men or something
like that-football players, perhaps
and won't have to work; that work
with the hands is degrading.
Its all wrong, and it won't do.
There may be a very few exceptions in
the whole race OF Indians. but one
school in the United States will hold
all Of them and it won't be very
big one, either.
mo, sir; higher education for an In
dian is no good; an Indian is an In
dian and you can't make him anything
else. Make him a good Indian. there
fore, and don't try to make him a bad
white man or an imitation of one.
Give Chance to Live
so 1 say give these Indians a chance
to live. Give them a reservation of
good land, whereon they can raise their
crops, schools, churches, education
along the lines of their actual needs
and no more Look after them, but
don't make them paupers. Give them a
square deal.'
What will it cost?'
Not much; 1 haven't figured it out,
but it shouldn't be expensive. Probably
the land will cost $4,000 and $500 to
$4,000 a year will pay for the agent.
Anyhow, 1 am going to take the
matter up in the next congress and
sea what can be done. A bill is in al
ready to cover their immediate needs
and I am going to push this matter
meanwhile. The Sequoia league has
provided for them so that they will
not want this winter and their destiny
for the coming year lies with the gov
ernment."
Senator Flint is very earnest in his
championship of these governmental
wards. He has been out among them,
has talked with them face to face; he
knows their needs and the best way to
meet them.
His ideas are vastly different from
both those of the good Bostonese, who
think the red man needs what white
man does and of those others who feel
that an Indian is only useful as fer
tilizer under ground.
If put in force his plans will make
a new departure in handling the In
dian question-the departure of help
ing Lo to help himself Isn't it worth
trying?

WILL JUDGE SWEET PEAS.

Last spring Chris Lund, the florist
offered To give prizes to the children
raising the best sweet peas from seed
purchased of him and asked the Ladies
Literary club to assist him in interest
ing the children in the matter, which
the club kindly consented to do. The
civic Improvement department con-
sisting of Miss Alice johnson, Mrs. A.
w. TreVitt and Mrs Frank Kelly took
the matter up and the result was that
300 children purchased seed and sowed
it. 1t was at first intended to have the
children give an exhibition of their
peas at the county fair on "club even
ing" but this cannot be done because
the season will then have passed. The
exhibition will be given next Monday
at the fair grounds and five members
of the Ladies Literary club will be
chosen to make the awards of prizes.
Each bouquet will be numbered, the
Judges not knowing to whom they be-

LOOK OUT FOR THEM.

Notwithstanding the fact that county
school officers have been warned time
and again to beware of strangers travel
ing about the country selling school
supplies, they are caught every day by
oily tongued rascals. About year ago
two fellows appeared in this county
and though Co. Supt. John Lamont
had repeatedly informed the town
school boards of the school laws, the
fellows succeeded in taking several or
ders for supplies which they did not
fiji nor ever intended to fill. They Sc
cured money at the banks on the school
orders and skipped out, but were later
arrested in another county and brought
back. AS there was no proof that they
did not intend to fill the orders they
were let go, but the school boards that
had ordered the goods had to make up
the money from their own private
funds. We state the foregoing as a
warning against some sfarpers who are
at present working through Wisconsin,
with considerable success. They are
taking orders for agricultural charts,
which they sell for $45 each. They
have sold several in counties bordering
on Marathon and may work this
county. In several instances they have
informed school officers that their
charts are recommended by the state
superintendent or county superinten-
dent, which of course3is false. 1t is an
old game that has been worked for
years and yet none of these fakirs have
ever, so far as we can learn, been
prosecuted

WILL GET STATE MONEY.

Co. Superintendent of Schools w. j
Farrell, is in receipt of circular letter
from the state superintendent, G.. p
Cary, calling his attention to chapter
476 of the laws of 1905, under which
$4,000 is to be distributed among the
several counties to defray the expense
of teachers institute work The money
is taken from the general funG of the
state treasury and is known as the
teachers county institute fund. By the
provisions of the law the money is dis
tributed among the counties of the
state in just proportion to the number
of teachers actually required and en-
ployed. The superintendent must
make sworn statement to the state
superintendent of the number of teach
ers under his supervision, and the
money is apportioned on that basis
The county superintendent must keep
an itemiZed account of all expenditures
from the fund in his district. AS there
are about 5000 teachers in this state,
outside the cities, the distribution will
amount to approximately ST per teach
err Marathon county employs between
200 and 225 and will therefore receive
quite a lump of money and will rank
well up with other counties in the state
in the amount apportioned it. This
law is somewhat of a saving to teach
ers. Heretofore the expense of con-
Quoting institutes has been made up
from an entrance fee of LOO charged
each teacher attending. By the terms
of the new law they are not required to
pay any entrance free, and chapter 476
will meet with the approval of teachers
throughout the state

so it is impossible to completely cut off
the large pines, for it is not for sale.
There is a report prevalent here at
the present time that one of Wausau's
prominent lumbermen is about to pur-
chase large piece of the lake frontage
from which it is now intended to cut
off the timber. If this is true, we will
guarantee to say that he will own
several of the finest cottage sites that
can be found anywhere in the north.
1t is to be regretted that the pine tim
Der has been so completely stripped
from the shores of all the beautiful
lakes of Northern Wisconsin. There
are few patches left here and there,
where some one has taken fancy to
build summer home, but in the main,
it has all gone. One would have
thought that the railway companies
would have been far-sighted enough
to see that the pine forests on the banks
few of the best lakes were left stand
ing. Most of it could have been sold
for cottage sites at large advance and
thus, on Just land and timber specula-
ton it could have been made paying
investment But from that source
would have come the least profit. The
number of people that would have been
attracted to this locality for health and
pleasure would have been something
enormous. Notwithstanding the fact
that the large pine is going fast there
are still forests of hemlock, hardwood
and young pine trees, and as we have
often said before, the people who live
in Northern Wisconsin do not appre-
ciate the beautiful lakes they have right
at their doors, for they allow those
from distance to come in and buy up

Conditions at Plum lake this year are
the same as usual; its hotels and cottages
are filled with pleasure seekers, the
latter, mostly with those who live in
Wausau and Merrill. yet there are those
who own cottages on its banks from
Kansas City, Mo, Chicago, Tomah and
other places. The present has been an
unusually pleasant season on Plum, as
it has been throughout Northern Wis
consin. The weather has been cool and
delightful and only very few days
that have been uncomfortably warm,
and they were so only during the
middle of the day.
Most of Plum is still in its pr litive
state, so far as its forests are concerned
where the large pines have been taken
out in many cases, there still remains
heavy growth of hemlock, hardwood
and small pine timber; this has helped,
in degree, to maintain the beauty of
its shores On the opposite side of the
lake from the Sayner resort and extend
ing clear to the west end, is solid
forest of pine trees, some of which
raise their majestic heads fully a
hundred feet in the air. Many of US
have wandered through these pine
forests along the banks of Plum so

an old friend. Like the rest of the pine
of Northern Wisconsin, this which
skirts Plum must succumb to The woods
mans axe and be manufactured into
lumber. In fact this work has already
been commenced, Star lake has been
denuded, and Langley q Alderson's
crew is walking right along and great
forests are swept down before it like so
much grass. Razor Back lakes beauti-
full pine groves have disappeared, and
at this writing, trees can be seen fall
ing in the distance and the noise re-
minds one of the firing of heavy artillery
at the battle of Gettysburg, or, as we
thought it might have sounded, having
heard the brave old soldiers at home
tell about it. To some of the unsophis-
the noise sounds like thunder
and until they find out what is going
on, they feel that all kinds of electric
storms are lurking in the deep recesses
of the woods, ready to come upon them
and they instinctively seek safe har-
Dor where the weary may find rest. If
some one does not step in pretty quick
and make purchase of cottage sites
where there is now standing pine, the
timber will all go and much will be
done to spoil the beauty of that partic
ular side of Plum. The balance of the
shores, which comprises about two
thirds, is owned by private parties and
is covered with pine and other woods,
