Want ONLY MILLION
FROM u. S. government

SPOKANE, Wash, July 22.-Indians
of the Nez Perez tribe, reported to be
the wealthiest in the Pacific slope
country, decided at a recent council
in Lapwai, Idaho, south of here. to
authorize the filing Of an action
against the United States for 100000
as the amount of their claim for
land formerly occupied by Chief JOS
eph and his tribesmen in the Wallowa
valley in Oregon.
The Indians contend that they are
entitled to reimbursement for these
lands and they will 60 to the courts
of last resort, if necessary, to prove
their rights. Heretofore the govern
ment has made it clear that nothing
is due to the Indians, for the reason
that they coded all rights by their
treaties of 1855 and 1866; and, fur
Their, that by executive order the lands
in the valley were restored to the pub
lie domain and now are owned by the
white settlers, who have since &C.
Quired full title under the homestead
laws.

FISH TAKES TO Water
But: IS AMPHIbI0US

DEVILS LAKE, N. D., July 22.-The
path of the historian is not one which
is streWn with roses or lined with
feather beds, according to H. c. Fish
curator of the state historical society,
who returned last evening on foot
from Graham's Island, where he spent
a day endeavoring to secure trace Of
an Indian village that was supposed
to have teen located in that v!rlnity
Mr.. Fish took a regulation ride on
the train to Grand Harbor, hoofed it
from there to the island, a distance Of
twelve miles, and remained over ri,ht
with Mr.. Denoyer. indulging in little
research along the road. Early yes
terday morning he was taken t. the
Narrows by Mr.. DenOyer, but in order
to get across had to swim over for a
boat and come back for his clothes
He then walked five miles - Fort Tot
ten, tramped around that vicinity t>r
while and finally made the grade
into Devils Lake. distance of 16
miles more, on foot. On the last ste:c
of his journey he was the s'lhiec+ OF
an attempted holdup. an Indian who
had in some way secured some Of the

with him being the participants. I'e'
spite his long walk before the in c:den:.
Mr.. Fish outdistanced his pursuers
and reached town at 900 oc!ocK.
We can't hunt for Indian mounds in
an automobile" said Mr. Fish, ana
must expect a few hardships.
Round rings in the earth, pottery or
bones will indicate the village Of the
Grosphant tribe on Graham's Island,
and though Mr.. Fish was unable to
locate anything, due to the underhrEsh
he says that people in this vicinity
might keep their eyes open, look for
the villages and be of assistance to the
historical society.
Mr.. Fish is also hopeful of finding
more effigy mounds. although he IS
very glad to have discovered the hid
shaped totem, the first of lis kind
found in North Dakota, which l., local

more to be found in this state. There

near Sheyenne. and Mr.. Fish will TO-
turn here in April to make further re-
search.
Next week Mr.. Fish starts west
along the N. p. on a hunt for the
stockade supposed to have been built
by Sully just before his fight in the
hills The story goes that before the
battle Sully parked all of the wagons
belonging to the expedition with those
of the immigrants. threw np a rough
earthen stockade and sailed out. The
walls of the stockade are probably
standing and Mr.. Fish will endeavor
to locate the place. Later there are
several unassigned Indian camps that
will be traced on the westc rn side q!
the Missouri and Mr.. Fish in that case
will be accompanied by several Of the
older Indians.

The cases were tried here last

Both cases will probably be ap-

as this three mill tax is now incor

looks like hopeless case.

Girls Home Clubs.

There is quite as much need, i'm
portance and value in organizing
home economic clubs among our
public school girls as there lie for
forming agricultural clubs among
the boys. The boy who grows a
crop through his own efforts gets
much of that kind of education
that goes to make a real man, and
that is true no matter whether he
is to be farmer or q banker, a
mechanic or a minister. The same
is true for girls. The young lady
who has worked to win a premium
for best light bread, best corn
bread, cake. preserved fruit or veg
etable is a better aud nobler wo-
man OH account of the study, eff
fort and thought she has had to
put forth. And the girl who has
worked diligently to produce a
neat shlrtwaist, a we'll. fitting skirt,
a tidy piece of underwear, or u
housekeeper's apron is better
girl aud will make q better wife
and better mother because of her
effort. Latin, higher algebra and
geometry aud ancient history do
not give the sort of training best
suited to the untold thousands of
girls whose business it will be to
preside over a home and not to
lecture Oh university platforms or
entertain philosophers and scho-
lars.
1t is, therefore, gratifying to
know that the girls home club
movement is getting firmly esta-
blished in Louisiana. Already
clubs have been formed in Calca.

in several other portions of the
State. The girls clubs are organ.
lied in the same manner as the
boys are, and premiums are to be
