VOICE OF THE PEOPLE:
NOT FREE LOVERS"

To the Editor--There are two last
refugees OF every opponent of Social,
ism. After dividing up" and lack of
incentive" and a few other alleged
objections have been demolished the
valiant defender of things as they are
generally hurls these last shots. 1You
are lot OF free lovers, and you can't
change human nature anyhow That
is supposed to be cruching retort,
as well os proof of a philosophical
mind on the part Of the objector.
In an article in the Pearson's maya
zine. for July. 1908. James Creelman,
under the head of Americans
Trouble makers" which was very
violent criticism of Socialism, he
says No opponent OF Socialism,
however bitter he may be, can honest
~ say that free love" is a part of
that creed" 1t is fair to say that
free love is. not taught or defended
by the socialist
Human nature" Is not so bad after
all II 1t had the chance Of proper
environment, il could develop into
something higher and better than the
world has ever known. 1t must have
some admirably persistent qualities
not to have deteriorated any more
than it has under capitalism.
The body has adapted itself to its
present environment, and little change
can be expected unless the physical
environment changes; but the en-
virnnment Of the mind and thought is
! changing before our very eyes, and
human nature is changing with it.

Women Doctors Among indians.


Among the Greek Indians certain
old women are renowned for their skill
In the treatment of gunshot wounds
CMtto Hrajo, or Crazy Snake, sought
one Of them after he was shot in the
leg In the fight with officers at his
home near Pierce. The knowledge OF
surgery and medicine possessed by
these old women is the most primi.
tive kind. 1t came down through gen
erations and much of tribal myth and
superstition enters into their practice
They never attempt amputations, and
xsly mostly upon poultices OF herbs
One Of these old Greek women doctors
Simahoya, said to be nearly 100 years
old. was found recently at fullblooo
Creek Indian Baptist church north
east OF here, where the congregation
had assembled Saturday to be in time
for the service Sunday. She sat pla,

straight hair hung disheyeled. hei

sparkled with the curiosity at sight
! Of the armed white men she accepted
with evident pleasure gift OF plug

the corner of her apron, and offered
no objection when a man with ko-
dak took her picture.

Is said to be similar to those OF the

are allowed to call on the patient.
The removal of bullet from Q

Australian Clay Eaters.

In the Northern Territory That vast
subtropical section of Australia which
Is to be opened up for settlement now
that it has been taken over from
South Australia by the commonwealth
government, some of the natives have
a curious custom OF eating a certain
kind Of white, powdery clay.
Investigation does not indicate any
particular fondness on the part Of the
aboriginals for this particulad diet, but
the clay would appear to serve a USE
full purpose in between whites by way
of staving off hunger when game is
scarce.
