FROM VARIOUS
POINTS OF VIEW

Observations by Courier Readers

lntervieWers. E & & &

The Iowa association of Police Chiefs
which was organized in Des Moines
last July and which numbers in its
membership the police chiefs in nearly
all of the large cities of the state has
been a great help to us in ferreting
out criminals" said Chief of Police
Peter Gallagher who is member OF
the association. While the Iowa as
ISOLATION is only a few months old it
has attained much strength, and the
members have been greatly benefited
by the organization. There are great
many things to do before the associa-
ton will be as effective as in some
= = --''~"o ii has reached the
stage of perfection. We are going to
e,4,.s1nl,4 4aUon nom the next
legislature for the maintenance of, a
bureau of information. but whether we
will get it is a question If we secure
the appropriation and when the bureau
is established it will greatly simplify
that branch of the work as compared
with the too cumbersome method of
appealing to the national bureau. We
expect to have the chiefs and city mar
shals in all the smaller cities join us.
When the system is perfected it will
almost be impossible for prisoner to
escape retirbution for his crime"
"A check that had never been spent
and the attendant joys that one pos
sesses while it's owner made "Smuck''
mighty happy Saturday night" said
the spokesman, .but it was, not for
long. After literally expressing his
wealth by the display of the aforesaid
check, Jonathan went on his joyous
way. The transfer of phial of Iini-
ment from one pocket to another, dur
ing which the uncashed check I'M
noticed by its owner, sailed to the
ground and to the regions of Lostville,
made the son of the house of Molony
poor man, and consequently caused
an unceasing volley of the kidding
stuff to be directed towards the loser
of the miniature bank roll. We all hope
this notice will be the means of bring
ing the check back to it's owner, and
thus doubly assure friend the expect
ed Christmas present

The Des Moines Register and Lead
er gives brief mention to a movement
begun in Des Moines to reduce the
size of the city wards. 1t says:
AN opinion to the effect that the
city has the right to change it's pre-
cinct or ward boundaries at any time
was rendered by the legal department
yesterday morning, and in view Of
this the preparation made a week ago
for doubling the number of precincts
will be continued"
This matter has been agitated in OF
tumwa and petition presented to the
city council asking division of the
wards into precincts has been referred
to the city councils committee of the
whole. This matter should not be per-
mitted to remain too long in the hands
of the committee. The next election is
several months away and no occasion
for undue haste exists, but the matter
might as well be attended to while
there is plenty of time to give to the
redistricting plans.

1t has been suggested that all pub
lie lands of value now open for .pri-
vate possession be withdrawn until
such time as congress can pass legis-
lation that will better safeguard the
|ownerhip of the country's natural re-
sources. This question is being agitat-
ed as result of the Alaska coal land
disclosures which has plunged the gov
eminent and the Guggenheim mining
syndicate into a court fight to deter
mine the ownership of valuable Alaska
coal lands. The government claims
that these Alaskan holdings were
secured by the Guggenheim interests
by fraud and Misrepresentation. Indi-
viduals acting as agents of the syndi-
cate are alleged to have filed on these
lands and this permitted the syndicate
to secure the vast holdings which the
government is now trying to recover.

Like an i'll omen came the death of
Governor Carter on the day after the
Mayfiower weighed anchor, but there
was another to take his place, and
the summer months passed slowly
and hopefully away, the Pilgrims be-
ing occupied in tilling the soil. nurs-
Ing the coming harvest, treating with
the Indians and making various ex-
petitions to the present sites of such
cities and towns as Boston, Eastman,
Middleborough and Charlestown.
Measured by standards which OBJ
tain today, there was little cause for
giving thanks as the second winter
drew on. From the standpoint of the
farmer of today, spinning through
the most fruitful agricultural land IN
the world in automobiles, there was
harvest was gathered. The old rec
ords have it that the corn yield was
good, the barley poor and the peas a
failure. Winter was coming on,
such winter as Longfellow pictured
with such vivid power The May
flower was over the sea. All the ties
had been severed for the time being.
On Coles Hill were many graves.
The bins were poorly stored with
grain.
yet the Pilgrims drew from the on
coming of the cold and cruel winter
| from the rocky hillsides, from the lit
tie city of the dead, from the hopes
that haloed the headstones from the
mighty sense of freedom they enjoy
| ed, from the providence that had
cared for them thus far and promised
greater blessings for the future-from
all these the Pilgrims drew inspira-
ton for Thanksgiving, and Governor
Bradford sent four huntsmen into the
| forest for wild fowl to furnish forth a
| feast as the symbol of plenty and graf
itude for plenty. The hunters returned
with an abundance of game, very prob
ably chiefly wild turkey. AT any rate.
wild turkeys were a staple source OF
food supply for many years throughout
the entire American settlements
And this, the Journal concludes, is
how the first Thanksgiving day was
celebrated and why turkey is the ma
tional bird today so far as the Thanks
giving table is concerned.
