sofa Cling to Difficult In
dian Names
STORM OF PROTEST RAISED
According to Government instructions
the Commission Recently Appoint
ed Will Revise Over 5000 Names of
Cities, Towns and Rivers, Counties,
Etc, Before Finishing Its Work.
Special to Times Republican

Spirit Lake, March 24.-The story
that the government had appointed
special commission to correct and
make into good English all the Indian
names in the United States that have
been given to cities, towns and rivers,
ETC., is raising a storm of protest in
Iowa, South Dakota and Minnesota.
The latter state will have to be re-
named largely, us there are so many
unintelligible names applied to various
lakes and towns in it.
In this state there are a large num-
Der of counties such as Allamakee, APP
panoose, Cerro Gordo, Buena Vista.
Cherokee, Chickasaw, Keokuk, Kos
suth, Pocahontas, Poweshiek, Winn !
bago, Winneshiek and Pottawattamie.
These names Of counties, together with
lot of cities and towns, as Kanawha
keosauqua, Wapello and DEBORAH,
would have to DE changed and better
names substituted according to the in
structions of the commission. Rivers
in Iowa bear unusually hard names
such as Wapsirinicon.
The Indian has left behind him many
beautiful legends in connection with
the difficult names he gave places and
things. Winona is beautiful story of
maiden in love. Minnehaha is anoth-
err beautiful legend made immortal by
Longfellow. Other poets and writer's
have filed newspaper columns and
magazines with the stories of Indian
love tales and events. The Iowas, the
Sioux. the Pawnees and Omahas tell
with glowing pictures, of the battle
field and events connected Herewith,
and Chicamauga is name given to the
memory of bloody battle.
The commission will revise over
5000 names all over the United States
and before it has finished people COM
ing here from foreign countries will
not have to ponder and labor with the
hard words in an endeavor to name
the place to which their ticket tells
them Is their destination.

in Progress. P. Albert Indicted
For Alleged Maintenance of Iii
suor Nuisance"-Two Arrests Made.
Special to Ti,nes-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, March 24.-From present,
indications, County Attorney Mccall is
determined to clean up Nevada. The
grand jury has been in session during
the past week, and while but a couple
OF indictments have been returned SO
far, from the number of subpoenas
that have been issued and the number
of witnesses examined, he has start
ed out on crusade to make life miser-
able for the gamblers, the bootleggers
and the various other parties, who go
to make up the undesirable element of
the town.
While the drug stores of Nevada
have been urlmolested for the past sew
eral years, rigid examination is now
in progress regarding their practices
of handling liquor, and there are indf-
cations that it may result in indict-
ments. Another practice, that Of out
siders purchasing liquor for men and
boys who are unable to do so them-
selves, is under the ban of his decree
and will be Investigated.
Yesterday afternoon notice OF an In
dictment was served upon ]. 2. Albert,
manager of the Donavan Commission
.Company's business at this point,
charging him with maintaining a
tTiquor nuisance" While the particu-
lars OF this Indictment have not been
made publi,, as yet, it is inferred that
he wifi be charged with purchasing
uquor for some of his customers or
friends. Mr. Albert promptly furnish
ed bonds in the sum OF $500.
Lock Duff and Charley Hizer, two
well known characters of the town,
we're arrested today under an indict-
ment charging them with breaking and
entering. 1t is supposed that this ar
rest comes as a result Of deal that
happened some months ago, when It
was reported that the two men had
been found filing up some SACKS OF
corn al the crib of a farmer south OF
town. When caught by a. neighoor'
they conter.ded that they had made ar
ranrements, with the owner for the
corn. and 1t is reported that the next
morning they went to the owner OF the
4 corn and made some sort OF settle
ment.
