ShotIey, Thought He Was Going
to Be ScaIped.

Halvor Tweeton, a homesteader
living near Shotley, was brought to
Bemidji this morning for examination
In the probate court to determine
his sanity.
Tweeton has fol some time past
been acting queer" but has never
been violent and no fear was enter
tanned that he would do anything of
a desperate character. He has been
haunted with the hallucination that
someone is after his scalp, and has
at times canfded this fear to his
neighbors. -..-.-.
Thursday night, he was again
possessed of the scalp-hunting ideas,
and being thoroughly convinced
that self-inficted wounds would stop
the hunt, he got out of bed, and get
ting an ak, chopped off one of his
fingers. ..
Several members of Tweeton's
family we're still about the house,
and notified the authorities, with the
result that Tweeton was brought to
Bemidji.
This afternoon, the sanity board
examined Tweeton, considering him
insane, and Judge of Probate Clark
committed Tweeton to the asylum at
Fergus Falls.
Tweeton was for many years
resident of Crookston, serving several
terms as deputy sheriff of Polk
county. He was afterwards men,
Der of the Crookston police force,
quitting the force to go on a home
stead near Shotley.

Anyone who has journeyed down

frantic efforts put forth by the wear

Duluth
From the Duluth News-Tribune.


Duluth has peculiar right to its name.
1t was not dictated by. fancy; it was not
concocted from the rawlings of a mental
dipsomaniac, it was not arranged as
sort of puzzle word nor was it chosen
to satisfy the fond recollection of a tot
tering intellect.
1t belongs to the city historically and
gives dignity and character that come
from inspiring association. Greysolon du
Iuth was the chief of the couriers du
bos in the time of the irascible but in
trepid Frontenac. He led that band OF
brave. daring and adventurous explorers
and traders who gained for France this
northwestern country and held for her
the outposts of her possessions.
He was the first Of that body OF discov-
erers whose love of adventure and knight
errantry of commerce led him to the
western shores Of Lake Superior. He was
the first to trade inside the present Min
nesota boundaries Of the lake. and he
established a temporary post certainly at
Pidgeon river
It is altogether probable that he visited
the present site Of this city and was the
first white man to do so. as he was the
first to venture upon these waters. His
name therefore. was most appropriately
taken as the name for this outpost city,
and his spirit rightly imbues its people
with that same knight errantry of COM
merce.
1t is also most appropriate and should
be a matter of pride for our citizens to
carry out the present project furthered by
Bishop McGolrick and others to erect here
a statue of Greysolon du Luth, and 1t
is fitting that it should be by a French

History We Ought to Study.

From the Boston IfaVeler
Historians give much Importance to po-
litical lines because they exist. and not
enough to the races and incidents that
produced those lines. Rome is the center
of all European history. and in its domi-
nance drew to itself all the states of Eu-
rope: but in its decline these states were
divided into smaller states by the Co
hesion of racial bonds. The wars Of the
past have been due to racial ambitions
working in one form or another. History
I'm its telling has only recently been
placed upon a scientific basis. accepting
the theory that science is without preJu-
dice and preconception: it has done little
for enlightenment and much for that con-
fusion which results from perverson of
fact and the gorfication Of some par
ticular race 1t is men. not acres. that
have made history; and only when We
deal with men and their motives and
throw the light on all in a spirit of
Justice and truth that history is worth
while.
Racial history is almost wholly neg
lected and hope that some day a
historian will devote himself to the i'm
nortant work of getting out school
history which will enable the scholar to
know what the races coming to this coun-
try are and what they have been doing
in the past. which will dissipate many
popular fallacies and help greatly in the
problem OF asSimilating these old races
as they enter this new country.
