Andes Wilds Explored.

Unbeaten tracks through the lands
Of the Indians nave been trod by
Baron Erland NordenskJold, who trav-
eled for Is months in the Andes, along
the various tributaries Of the Amazon
in practically unknown districts. He
visited in all three tribes, the Yamia-
cas-, the Guarayos and the Atsapnacas
who, until a couple Of years ago, lived
like people Of the stone age. The last
two still retain their customs in large
measure. No white man had ever be-
fore visited the Atsapnacas. The ex-
plorers marched through the territory
of fourth tribe and were constantly
watched by the people, who would
have no dealings with the strangers.
The Clutches and Aymaras living
around Lake Titicaca at an altitude Of
1900 feet and In the fells OF the An
des, offer an interesting study for the
ethnologist, since they have retained
many customs unaltered or but slight
~ modified since the days OF the an.

ONE DOLLAR YEAR IN ADVANCE
THURSDAY. JANUARY II. 1907
SENATOR CURTIS.

The election Of Charles Curtis ap.
pears to have given satisfaction TO the
majority Of the counties in Kansas,
though some localities strongly op-
posed him. His success in the race
was brought about by a number Of
different things. To begin with, as
compared to the other candidates,
Curtis outclassed them in experience
and as a political organizer. His
length Of service at Washington, his
demonstrated ability, and his general
alertness and fidelity to the interests
OF Kansas gave him considerable
prestige in the race. The fight made
on him by some Of the candidates
worked to his benefit, instead OF to
his detriment. If the field had com
bined early on Mr.. Bailey he could
have been made the winner, but there
was apparently no chance for such
combination, as other Of the candi-
dates believed that they themselves
could be elected. The people Of Ford
county, so far as can be learned,
favored the election Of Mr.. Bailey,
and Representative Beeson stood for
Mr.. Bailey first and last. Other
counties favored different ones Of the
other candidates, and in some cases
stayed by them to the end. The ma
jority favored Mr.. Curtis and he was
elected, and his election should be
accepted by the state as a whole as
the will of the majority. Senator
Curtis stands high in Washington,
and the people Of Kansas may con.
graduate themselves that they will
have two able representatives in the
United States senate.

runs across some interesting characters
among the Indians, some Of whom live
far from towns, speak their own Ian
guage, seldom get out Of their own

the treaties Of the government with the
Indians.
One Of these is Artus Hotiya, who
cannot speak English. The other day
Mr.. Posey went to Hotiya's place to
get information concerning child
of Hotiya who had died. In reply to
questions Hotiya answered:
"You crossed the Wewoka creek this
morning? It is spring and the water
runs; you see the green grass on the
prairies; the grass still grows. Our
people have agreed that so long as water
runs and grass grows, we shall not have
our lands divided nor our governments
supplanted. am not yet ready to give
information"
This speech was made in Creek and
represents the dignity and faith Of the
old class of Indians who still resent the
government allotment Of lands. When
It was explained to him that all the in
formation wanted was such as would
make possible an allotment for his
child, he replied:
God has given her an allotment In
the graveyard. She is dead. The al
lotment there is all that she is entitled
to. A grave is all the allotment that !
am entitled to and all that God intended
that should have. 1t Is enough. The
Great Father placed the Pacific on one
side and the Atlantic on the other, and
the land between he gave to the Indian.
1.-THE white man came and he set cor
ner stones and told the Indian that he
must live between these. The Indian
cannot live so. He is being stifled by
the white man, who has disarmed him
Of his bow and arrow and driven from
The forests the game. The end OF the
Indian is near, but I am not yet ready
to contribute to fastening It."

CHICKEN SHOW.
Ford County Will Give Big Poultry
and Pet Stock Show in February.

Ford County Will Give Big Poultr,
and Pet Stock Show in February.
All the arrangements have been made
for a poultry and pet stock show 10 Dodge
City during the first week in February.
A judge who has wide reputation has
been secured, and it will be q real show.
There are lot of fine birds in Ford
county now, and the owners seem to be
taking more interest in the show this
year than they have in the past.
The judge who will score the birds is
Mr.. d. A. Staner of Wichita, who has a
wide reputation as an expert on fine bred
fowls. He was one of the judges at the
recent state show at Wichita and is con-
sldered the best man to be obtained.
The dates of the show will be February
6, Z, s and 8. and the exhibit will be held
in the large rooms of the Zimmerman
hardware store, across The street from
their main store.
The poultry business is of great impor-
lance in Ford county, and all Of the
farmers can make money by giving more
attention to breeding fine fowls. Many
have been making 1t a study for years and
have the best Of the different breeds.
The show will include all kinds of
birds and pet stock, SO the boy can bring
their pigeons, and their fine bred dogs
and Ang cora cats, etc. This show has by
far the best prospects Of any one yet at
tempted, and 1t will no doubt be great
success.

The Law Excludes idiots, But Ia
Feeble Minded and Imbsciles
Are Let In.

Imbecile immigrants were discussed
at the recent New York conference On
immigration by Robert s. Watchorn
commissioner Of immigration. sayi
American Medicine. He deplored the
fact that. while the law excluded
idiots, 1t did not mention the imbe-
Giles or the feeble-minded, who were
equally unfit for citizenship. There
is no dividing line between these
classes, so that borderland cases are
admitted through political influence.
whereas they might be considered to
be idiots. It seems that such fine
technical distinctions really defeat the
purpose Of the law, The word idiot
has a general as well as a technical
meaning. and includes the imbeciles,
and even the feeble-minded. The law
evidently uses 1t in this broad sense,
for 1t is absurd to think its trainers
would have thought that imbeciles and
the feeble-minded were proper kinds
Of immigrants. It was designed to
exclude persons who would become
public burdens, but It is well to in
quire whether It is not now time to
extend its application and to exclude
those who are 30 feeble-rninded that
they cannot be trusted with the fran
chise even If they are apparently able
to make a living with a pick and
shovel. These almost brainless AMI
mails are pouring into the country at
a tremendous rate, and will propagate
their type, which Is healthy normal
one, even If lacking in intelligence.
1t is beginning to be known that edu-
cation will not make these men more
intelligent and that we are filing the
country with unassimilable men who
can never become good citizens or an
cestors OF such. Democracy requires
brains. Wherever there is lack OF

corruption in every form and a per-
version of the democratic form Of gov

Value of Arkansas Cotton
 Crop.

A recapitulation of Southern Cotton Association estimates in- dicates that there will be a cot ton crop of II, 1,961, ,0OO bales, of which Arkansas will furnish 733, ,OOO bales. At $75 per bale close to $55, 100000 will be the portion of Arkansas cot t on growers for the crop now being gathered. When it is considered that there is needed for the worlds consumption crop of 13, 900, 900 bales, much satisfac- tion can be derived from the situation and the prospects.
The Nevada County picayune., 1907-09-12

possible for a candidate to re- ceive as low as 31, GOO votes and win. The same possibility at taches to a race for any other omcei where there are several candidates. With but two men running the majority proper must win.
 In Mississippi the plan is diff ferent. There the successful candidate must receive a major ity. If he fails to do so, then there must be second primary or run-off between the two high est in the first primary, as in the case of the governorship in that state recently.
 One effect expected of the new plan in Arkansas was a promis- cuity of candidates. A man who can command 25,OOO to 3O,O0O votes will be a factor in the primary next March. if he can have four or five competitors. Indications are that there will be half a dozen candidates for gov ernor and perhaps as many for attorney general. Thus there will be opportunity to test the plurality plan. It will leave but little for the next state conven- tion to do beyond merely regis tering the will of the voters as expressed in accordance with the rules laid down in 1906. Gazette.
The Nevada County picayune., 1907-09-12
NEW PLAN IN NEXT PRIMARY.

A new plan will be tried by the democratic voters of Ar kansas in the primary election on the fourth Wednesday in March next. Under this plan the can didate who receives the highest number of votes for the office to which he aspires will become the nominee. There will be no dead locks in the state convection. The plurality plan was adopted by the democratic state convention in 1906 to govern the primary in 1908 after discussion of its merits. It is objected to by some because it makes possible the nomination of a candidate who has received a minority of the popular vote in the primary. We have seen under the old plan, however, how the candidate re- ceiving a majority of the popular vote failed to get enough dele gates to declare him the nominee, and the nomination went to the man who did not carry the popu- lar vote.
 Under the plan in vogue now, with a field of five candidates for governor and a total of 150, COG votes cast in the state, it will be

We have warehouse facilities for storing at least 2,0OO, 900 bales of cotton" said former Assessor Cole. of Van Buren, in discuss l ing the action of the convention. Cotton, according to report, IS very short, the total crop from present prospects not being more than 10, 300, 900, against normal crop of 13,OOO, 900 bales. With the prevailing price of last year, l5 cents should not be a high price, with such shortage as this apparent. If we must hold our product to get the price de- manded we are in excellent con- dition to do so. It is recognized fact that bonded warehous e receipts are among the best col lateral in the financial world, and we easily sold our output against slow market. "
 "I am thoroughly satisfied with the action of the convention Tn setting the minimum price ot cotton at 15 cents, said Secre- tary Griffin, and Arkansas farmers all along the line are ready for any emergency to see that we get the amount asked. =
 Another important committee, that on minimum price of grain, with M. B. Atkinson, of Wash ington, as chairman, reported Tn favor of the following prices per bushel on cereals: Wheat, S1; corn, soc; oats, 35c; rye, $l.25; farley, soc; kaffir corn and milo maize, soc. This report was also adopted by the convention.
 In accordance with the report of the committee on long staple cotton the minimum price ot island long staple was set at 27 cents per pound. The prices recommended by the Sea Island Cotton Association, 44-48 and Soc, for the three grades of that cotton was adopted.

One Million Bales Short.

w. E. Green, vice-president and general manager of t h e Trinity and Brazos Valley Rail- way, with headquarters at Fort Worth, Texas, says:
 Texas will certainly be one million bales short of last year, and if early frost occurs the yield will be much less.
 He says Arkansas has un- doubtedly suffered similarly to other southern states, particu- larly in the hill lands.
