noon at the home of Miss Martha
Brewster. the party being conveyed
there in Gilbert's auto. The regent
Mrs. w. r. Burdick, presided. The pa
per of the afternoon, which was writ

was The Pequot War. The paper fol-
lows:
The Pequot War
The Pequots were the most riumer-
Gus. the most warlilze. the fiercest of
all the aboriginal clans of Connecticut.
They occupied a tract of country about
thirty miles square. the whole of the
counties of New London and Windham
and a large part of Holland county.
Though the Pequots and Mohegans are
treated by historians as separate
tribes, they do not appear to have been
oEref'tz that Incas. the Mohegan
vas TOO ambitious to favor the
Stirring views of Sassacus, the head
sa.tshem of the Pequots, and was a
traitor.
Uncas and Sassacus.
Uncas was descended from the royal
PeQuot line and married q daughter of
the Pequot chief. Sassacus was the
most intractable and proud of all the
New England Indians. He is describ-
ed as having exce1led all other men OF
his tribe in courage and address as a
warrior Scarcely had the first log
cabin been built by the pioneers in the
valley of the Connecticut river, when
he began to devise means for their de-
struetlon. The summer of 1868 saw
the first Pequot hostility towards the
English. Captain Stone, from Virginia
accompanied by Captain Norton and a
crew of eleven men, left Boston in g
small trading vessel for the Connecti-
cut river.
On their arrival at the mouth of the
river trade was opened With the In
dams. Although apparently friendly
they killed the entire party.
Treaty Never Made.
The following year Sassacus sent to
the Massachusetts colony to promise
skins and wampun in exchange for {
league between his people and the
paleface. but the treaty was never full
filled. A. treaty between the English
and Narragansetts lasted about two
years.

work; also this board has been given
control over telegraph and telephone
companies and, while this may not be
all important at the present time, in
the future it bids fair to be an i'm
portant department of activity.
In the passage of the wye bill, the
state has taken long step toward
enforcing the construction of con-
Meeting wyes at points where rail-
roads cross. One provision Of this
measure which Is to the effect that
railroads must grant rate based
upon the shortest haul possible II a
wye had been constructed will re-
suit in this measure becoming op-
erative in a moro marked degree
than any other provision would make
possible.
Affecting the employees of railroads
there is the full strength caboose
hill. This measure prescribed that
all caoooses must be constructed of
standard strength, equal to that of
the 10000 capacity freight cars. 1t
has been contended that since the
passage of the anti-dinkey caboose
bill two years ago. that the railroads
have adopted policy of using two
of the dinkey cabooses in the con-
struction Of one Of the larger ca
booses. thereby placing in operation
a caboose that is not nearly so
strong as the regularly constructed
freight cars and which, in the event
Of a collision would not serve to pro-
tect the lives of those therein.
Educational Laws
Educational laws enacted by this
assembly have also been very import
ant. The work Of the school laws
compilation commission appointed
two years ago, has been ratified. al
though there have been large num-
ber Of amendments made to the bill
as 1t was originally presented.
The normal board of control bill,
under the provisions Of which nor
NAL board Of management and indi-
vidual normal boards are abolished,
is another piece Of important work.

That he frequented the Ness drug

That he frequented the Bond drug

That he frequented Green's drug

measures OF that nature to its credit.
1t may be charged that in passing
SO many initiative and referendum
bills, that the 'assembly has endeav-
ored to shift responsibility upon the
next succeeding assembly, but such
Is not the case. 1t was the purpose
of those vitality interested in initia-
tive and referendum to place before
the next assembly variety of meas
ures, thereby making it impossible
for that assembly to avoid certifying
to the people for their approval some
sort Of bill embodying this princi-
pie. The bills that have been approx
ed by this assembly are the Bessessen
statutory measure, the Gibbons con-
stitutional bill, the Plain constitu-
tional and statutory and the Doyle
Ployhar constitutional, statutory and
recall.
In connection with the initiative
and referendum bills there is also
an independent recall bill which will
go to the next succeeding assembly
for approval and then to the people
for their ratification. BY reason of
the numerous bills covering these
questions, it is quite certain that the
people of the state will have an op-
portunity of gaining great deal of
information covering the manner in
which these principles have worked
out in other states, and by the time
two years have elapsed, sentiment
will doubles have crystallized around
one or the other of the measures
adopted.
Railroad Legislation
Railroad legislation has also been
of far reaching effect. the anti-pass
which has long been an issue in North
Dakota politics will no longer be
heard Of as on July the issuance Of
free railroad mileage comes to an
end. Only few exceptions are made
in the anti-pass bill and those ex-
ceptions are in the cases Of persons
engaged in furthering the agricultu-
raj and industrial interests Of the
state. namely. in the farmers edu-
cational movement and in the de-
velopment of the vast Ignite coal
fields of the west.
