Supervision Not Retroactive.

The effect of such valuation and super
vision of securities cannot be retroactive.
Existing securities should be tested by
the laws in existence at the time Of their
issue. This nation would no more injure
securities which have become an i'm
pOrtnnt part of the national wealth than
il would consider a proposition TO re
pudiate the public debt But the public
interest requires guaranty against inn
proper multiplication of securities in the
future. Reasonable regulations for their
issuance SHOULD be provided, so as to
secure as far as may be that the pro-

: TO LET THE RED MAN WORK.
Indians to Have a Chance to Be Men
and Not Mere Wards.
From the World To-day.

FROM me w rld IOQay.
1t is only within the last few years-more
especially within the last two-that the
opening of the reservations has wrought
any considerable change in the Indians
condition.
He continued to receive his rations and
lived in much the same way as of old, only
in comparatively few instances improy-
ing his property. With the entrance of the
present Indian commissioner a radically
different policy was incepted.
This new movement aims at the substitu-
ton Of independence and freedom for seq
regation and charity. Every inducement Is
being offered to the able-bodied Indian to
go out into the world and seek work side
by side with the white man and in free
competition with him.
1t is the policy of labor and citizenship
as against the policy of rations and nom
entity. We are giving the redskin the white
mans chance and asking him to assume the
white mans responsibilities.
1t is a bold experiment, fraught with
many dangers and difficulties for us and for
our wards. No one can be more keenly
alive to these than the commissioner, but
he has entered upon the enterprise with a
confidence and enthusiasm that deserve
success. ..a-

Horse Trading in Indiana:
From the Duluth Herald.

From the Duluth Herald.
Down in Indiana they have passed a
new horse-trading law that would make
David Harum shake his head and ask
what the world was coming to-" said T..
c. Stacey of indianapolis. The men
who have been getting fun and money
out Of trading in horses feel that the
new measure treads upon their rights
as free American citizens.
1t has always been the rule in the
past, since the foundation Of the world
that when people traded horses they
traded only for what they could see unless
special guaranty was demanded and
given. And the horseman who would point
out defect In his own horse would lose
caste Immediately, unless he merely pointed
out one defect to keep the purchaser from
noticing a greater one.
The new Indiana law not only forbids
the use Of drugs or any article to conceal
the fact that horse is sick. lame or defec-
tive. but requires the trader to run down
his own horse, by telling the Intending
purchaser of every defect and disease with
which the creature is afflicted If he fails
to do this he is subject to fine of $500. to
which may be added Imprisonment In the
Jail or workhouse not longer than six
months.

ROYALTY AND OLD AGE.
Eleven Living Members of Ruling
Houses Are Past Eighty.

From the New York Sum-
When the Princess Clementine of Sake
Coburg, mother of Prince Ferdinand of
Bulgaria, died couple of weeks ago, she
was generally spoken of as having been the
Oldest living member of any royal family
In Europe. This was an error. She was
only the second oldest. although she would
have completed her ninetieth year had she
lived to June 3.
The oldest is the Princess Charlotte
Amalie of Schwartzburg- Sonderhausen who
was born on September 7, 1876 at Arm
stadt and is therefore ninety -one years old
She was married at Glockenthal in 1856 to
Jean Henri Baron de Jud, and she has
been a widow since 1864. She lives in
Berne, Switzerland.
Royalty seems to be conducive to long
life. Including the Princess Charlotte
Amalie. there are eleven members of royal
families who have reached eighty years
and upward. The second oldest at present
Is the Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria,
VINO was eighty-Six years old on March II.
Next comes the DoWager Grand Duchess
of enburg- Stre1ftz, who will be
eighty-five on July 8. The Duchess of
Adelgunde of Modena, sister of Luitpold
Is the fourth, having been bor- on March
8, 1923.
There is survivor in the "Almanach
de Gotna'' from 1924; but Prince Johann zu
Observation-Disclosures represents 1925: his
birthday Is December II. He is the last
surviving brother of King Christian Ia OF
Denmark.
George, Duke of Sake Meiningen, will be
eighty-one on April %, and next in order
comes Eugene, once empress of the
French, who first light on May 3, 1926,
and who now divides her time between
her house in Hampshire. England, and her
villa at Cap Martin in the south of France.
The Grand Duke Friedrich of Baden is
a sturdy man nearly eghty-one years old.
| He was born on September O. 1926. Ernest,
Duke of Sachsen-Altenburg. is seven days
| Schwartzburg, mother of the reigning
! Prince of Schwartzburg-L udolstadt, was
| born on November 49, 1928. Finally the
| Archduke Rainier of Austria was born on
January II, 1927.
There at least fifty members of royal
| houses whose ages range from seventy to
| eighty years.

Indians Fondness for Dancing.

From the Denver Republican.
Like all the rest OF his red-skinned breth-
rem the Crow Indian dearly loves the dance
An Indian will drop his haying in the face
az a thunder storm TO go to a dance, and a
sqIaw will forget all her hifalutin college
education at the prospect of keeping step
20 the magic beating OF those tomtoms.
The music OF the dance represents the
summons of the ages-it Is the call of the
Wild which the Indians cannot resist. The
best and most Industrious succumb to its
wiieS.
The government is trying to stop Indian
dancing on all the reservations for the rea-
son that an Indian will do nothing but
dance when he Is given free rein. Crops
and biooded stock and all the higher ideals
OF civilization would soon go to smash on
the reservation II the Indians were allowed
to dance when and where they pleased So
beyond few dances. given at stated inter-
walls. and a big dance fest at the time of
the annual fair. the Crows have very little
OF their favorite enjoyment, unless one
counts the dances that are held on the sly

Swiss Suffragettes.

Women Of all classes in Geneva have

selves the suffrage in every department of
public life. and especially the right to vote
in parliamentary elections. The vice presi-
dent and the secretary of the association
are members of the chamber of deputies.

What Englishmen Read.
From the Bohemian,

To my relief there are no one-hundred-
page Sunday papers here. The only news
from America in the papers Is about how
Buffalo Bill chases desperadoeS or how
masked men held uu and robbed travellers
In Colorado, OF how a bank was broken
into In Arizona; and I suppose this ac-
counts for a shopkeeper telling me that we
have only one or two trains a day over
there. and for his asking me IL 1 always
carry a revolver when travel In America.
Nearly all the papers gives pages to crime,
and the magazines are full of detective
stories. People do not subscribe to maya
zines by the year as freely as we do They
say it's extravagant, and In some cases
they're right.
