EAST END OF COUNTY
TO AID MOBILIZATION.

The movement in Havre to secure
mobilization of the regular army and
| National guard at Fort Assinniboine
will be heartily supported by the
people of the East end of the county.
A movement toward this end is al
ready on foot, as is shown by the fol-
lowing from the Harlem News:
A movment has been started by
the Havre Industrial Association.
which if carried to a successful end
and there is reason to believe that it
will be-that means considerable to
this end of Chouteau county and the
good people of this city should be as
sisted by the people here with that
end in view
According to the plans as outlined
the people of Havre want the Joint
maneuvers Of the regular army Of
three departments and nine or ten
states brought every year to Fort AS
sinniboine where they will 60 through
their regular drills, practice shoots,
etc., and where the soldiers, both in
fantry and cavalry will have all the
room that they desire for the same.
The mobilization of all these troops
at this point would mean much to
Montana and the Great Milk River
valley. 1t would mean that the
ranchers of this section would have
q ready market for everything that
they would be able to raise in the line
OF vegetables and ether farm products.
It would open new market for the
great blue joint hay crop and
would have the effect of practically
a home market with an ever
ready demand for that staple com

The meeting Of Wednesday night
was largely attended and was enthu-
siastic, each citizen in attendance
becoming member. A special meet
ing Of the council has been called for
next Wednesday night to hear reports
from the committee on roads and
rural telephones.
The effort of this committee is now
being directed toward the securing of
better roads to the country south Of
this city and the committee will
view these roads Sunday.
1t is pointed out that extention of
the present telephone system or the
establishment of a new one to Yantic,

Reserving forests in the west from
monopolization for private gain is
government policy with which the peo-
pie have become somewhat familiar,
our national forest reserves amounting
now to nearly sixty million acres; but
the idea of applying this principle to
the older forests in the eastern states
may be new to some people and yet
is becoming a prominent one. Moth
ing is giving it popularity and import
ance SO much as the great interest
manifested by the President in the
subject.
There are proposed great national
reservations in the Southern Appala-
chan forests, in the White Mountains,
in Minnesota, and in other eastern
states, entirely separate and apart from
the great reservations in the west.
President Roosevelt is an arch disci-
pie of forestry and the great promi-
nence into which the subject has
jumped may be indicated by the
growth of the Bureau of Forestry
from a small Office, few years ago,
employing half dozen people, to an
institution with annual appropriations
of half a million dollars, employing
hundreds of trained foresters in the
field, and having the supervision, ac-
tual and tentative of nearly hundred
million acres of forest.
If there ever was national ques-
tion it is forestry, and the people OF
the country are wise in waking up, or
fortunate in being wakened up, to its
overshadowing Importance before ir-
revocable damage shall have been
DONE
The largest of the proposed eastern
forest reserves is that in the Southern
Appalachian Mountains ana that its
establishment is matter of national
concern was dwelt upon with empha-
sis by President Roosevelt in his ad-
dress at Raleigh, N. c., on October 20.
He pointed ont how vitality southern
forests affect southern indus
tries and thus the entire coun-
try. The entire south the territory
east of the Mississippi and south of
the Ohio rivers-is affected by this
proposed reservation of some four
million mountain acres in which rise
all the rivers which water this area.
The President said:
81 want to say a word to you on a
special subject in which all the coun-
try is concerned, but in which North
Carolina has special concern. The
preservation of the forests is vital to
the welfare of every country. China
and the Mediterranean countries offer
examples of the terrible effect of de-
forestation upon the physical geogra-
ply, and therefore ultimately upon
the national well-being of the nations.
One of the most obvious. duties which
cur generation owes to the generations
that are To come after 11S is to Drp-
serve the existing forests. The prime
difference between civilized and I'M
civilized peoples is that in civilized

LIFE OF BABY SAVAGE.
THE TREATMENT WHICH INDIAN
PAPOOSES RECEIVE FROM
SQU4W MOTHERS.

Indian Redskin Very Seldom Cries-ls
Strapped to a Plank, Washed in the
Greek and Hung on a Tree to Dry
Out.
In the Indian papoose child nature
is essentially the same as in the Cau-
casion babe, though there is strik-
ing contrast in their manners, due to
maternal treatment, or as a student of
child nature might say, to environ
ment. The chief differences, really,
between the little Indian and the little
white is that the former is less a cry
baby than the latter. The reason for
this is that the white baby usually gets
what he cries for if it be within moth
ers' power to procure it. Learning this
from experience, for every mother
knows how wise and shrewd the baby
is, whenever he feels that a certain ar
ticle would conduce to his content
ment, he forthwith hoWls. Now, the
papoose, so far from being encouraged
in this vocal exercise, is repressed. His
mother is unresponSive and the baby
not achieving what he weeps for, soor
learns that tears and walls profit not
Perhaps if the white mother dwell
in the deserts or the mountains so thai
babv's crying would not disturb the
neighbors even she might let him cry
till WEAKNESS brought sleep, and per
haps if the redskin mother lived
among sensitive neighbors she might
seek to pacify the crying babe with
The Semi-weekly leader., 1905-11-29

bribes that the .neighbors might not
charge her with neglect of maternal
duty, or her baby with an evil disposi-
ton. Yet another reason for the calm
and placid habit and orderliness of the
papoose as compared with his fair
brother is that the darker little saw
age has no cradle, crib or go-cart to
sport and gambol in, but is either
packed tightly in basket or strapped
to a board. In this position he finds
kicking and squirming uncomfortable
exercise and his enforced repose de-
velops into habit.
So, the stoicism and the taciturnity
of the Indian are nurtured in early
youth, though of course one reason for
the Indians lack of fuency in speech
is that in his life and thought he has
not the need of many words. The
primitive white man was not voluble.
Bath Day of Papoose.
The papoose has no nursery luxu-
ries as little pale-face babes under
stand that phrase. He has no soft and
tepid water prepared for him by a
faithful maid or fond mamma. He
is never lathered o'er with perfumed
soap nor busted with sweet-scented
powders. At intervals, usually two or
three times a week, the mothers of
the tribe or band take their babies to
the nearest creek, pool or spring, un-
strap the little ones and tumble them
into shallow water, where they have
a splashing time while the mothers
swap the gossip of the tribe, for
squaws are very feminine in their love
of personal news and chit-chat involv-
ing other squaws, bucks and braves.

Neither state or nation can afford to

future. We cannot afford to wait lon

BLACK WALNUT NUTMEGS.
Bishop Potter Was Sure That He
Was Tasting the Real Article.

The power of suggestion is not
merely phrase; it really is a power.
1t has the strength to deceive men in
the matter of cigars, wines, whiskeys
and what not. 1t is force in medicine
as every doctor knows. 1t is an agent
in therapeutics. The power of sug-
gestion and the force of example are
intimately related. But to illustrate
the pranks which suggestion may play
with ones palate the following story is
told on Bishop Potter, reverend gen.
tleman of ecclesiastic note and recent
Subway Tavern fame:
In the course of his diocesan ram
bles he called on an old friend from
the South. 1t was evening, and the
bishop was invited to supper, not din.
ner, for as people of the South know,
the appropriate time for dinner is mid
day and the meal after candle-light is
supper. One of the dishes served was
cottage-cheese or as it is more often
called in the language of the olden
time "smear-case." This is often eaten
under plentiful dressing of cream
and sugar. The bishop elected to have
mess" of "smear-case" but his ap-
petite craved little grated nutmeg as
a flavor. This was embarrassing to
the hosts wife at the foot of the sup
per table, but she said to Aunt Dinah,
who waited on table, Aunt Dinah.

"She amt got none. She done use

well, then, run down to Miss Bet
sy's and eesif she's got nutmeg .
said the troubled hostess, who talked
with augmented vivacity and anima-
tion to make the time pass quickly till
that nutmeg should be brought. Soon
Aunt Dinah came in, her black face
wreathed with triumphant smiles, and
placed before the bishop the mess of
"smear-case" generously sprinkled
with grated nutmeg.
"Ah," said the bishop, speaking with
that tone of complacent assurance,
coming from consciousness of per-
feet familiarity with his subject,
smacking his lips and beaming with

set on foot similar to that so fortu-
nately carried out in the high Sierras
ment. All the higher Applachians
should be reserved, either by the
states or by the nation! l much pre-
fer that they should be put under ma
tional control but it is a mere truism
to say that they will not be reserved
either by the states or by the nation
unless you people of the South show
a strong interest therein.
Would Prevent Floods ar Create
Water Power.
"Such reserves would be a paying
investment, not only in protection to
many interests, but in dollars and
cents to the government. The i'm
portance to the southern people of
protecting the southern mountain for
ests is obvious. These forests are
the best defense against the foods
which, in the recent past, have, during
a single twelfth-mOnth, destroyed
property officially valued at nearly
twice what it would cost to buy the
Southern Appalachian reserve.
"The maintenance of your southern
water powers is not less important
than the prevention of floods, because
if they are injured your manufacture

The perpetuation of your forests.

senators from North Carolina have
taken an honorable part in this move
ment. But l do not think that the
people of North Carolina, or of any
other southern state, have quite grasp
ed the Importance of this movement
to the commercial development and
prosperity of the sotth."
The Presidents Message to
Congress.
The special message sent to Con-
gress by the President on the South
ern Appalachian Reserve reads like a
story. It touches upon the interest in
the subject of the scientists and the
lumberman, of the geologist and the
farmer, the meteorologist and the
fruit grower, the business man and
the engineer, AMI the steamship pilot
and the homeseeker The President
transmits with his message a report
of the Secretary of Agriculture, pre-
pared in collaboration with the De-
partment of the Interior, upon the
forests, rivers and mountains of the
Southern Appalachian region, and up
on its agricultural situation as affect
ed by them, and says in part:
The report of the Secretary pre-
sents the final results of an investiga-
ton authorized by the last Congress.
Its concIusi0 0ns point unmistakably, in
the judgment of the Secretary and in
my own, to the creation of a national
forest reserve in certain parts of the
Southern States. The facts set forth
an economic need of prime Importance
to the welfare of the South, and hence
to that of the nation as whole, and
