Oldest CT all Indians In the United
States, Sitting Elk, former chief Of
the OgalialIa Sioux, is visiting in
Denver, guest Of the white men,
against whom he always refused to-
make war.
For almost a century he has been
a leader among his people, but, wiser
than other chiefs, he early realized
that the red man was doomed and at
every opportunity he counselled
peace with the paIefaces.
He could well afford to do so, for
his people knew he was no coward.
IT have never killed a white man, =
he proudly boasts, s'but I have fought
many battles, and / have done many
brave deeds in my long life of So
years. / was but II when / Waylaid
and killed my first enemy. That was
a very brave deed. Since then have
killed many, many enemies"
Sitting Elk is a total abstainer. He
smokes cigarettes, but insists he has
none of the other bad habits of the
white man. He is childless, the last
of his line, but he expects to live for
many years more-to be hale and
hearty long after he has passed the
century mark. s
Sitting Elk moves tall and stately
among his kinsmen, and puffs his
pipe with a compIacency unruf1ed by
thoughts of any Immediate Journey
to the happy hunting grounds.
Bright of eye, keen of mind, the
old warrior dcns paint and feathers
for his appearance with the younger
members of his tribe in the headlong
dashes across the amphitheater OF
the stock yards, and rides with an
abandon which defies the spectator to
single him from the reckless red
skins who have but one-fourthh his
years to their credit-Denver Post.

sentence of Edwin E. Cook, OF Spring

To Celebrate Anniversary of Surren-
der of CORVALLIS.

Washington, Oct. with appro-
pirate ceremonies an da parade of sol
diers and sailors the one hundred
and thirtieth anniversary of the sur
render of Lord CORVALLIS and his
army to George Washington at York
town, Va, will be celebrated at York
town Thursday, October 10. 1t is ex-
.pected people from various parts Of
the country will make a pilgrimage to
the famous battlefield at that time.
The Children of the Woods.
A county superintendent told us the
other day that he is becoming more
and more indignant the more he thinks
about the present educational policy
with regard to the public schools.
He proceeded to remark that the in
creased valuation of property will
bring in a largely increased fund from
taxation but that the children of the
schools will not get a dollar
of it. 1t will be expended en- our high
schools and colleges. This man is
right. The educational leaders were
foiled last a in their attempt to
fasten a bond issue upon the people
for the benefit of higher institutions,
but they will get what they want in an
indirect way. We know well enough
that the people as a whole are not in
favor of the policy of giving all our
help to the strong and none to the
weak, but they are amazingly patient
and long-suffering. However, If some
body m the next campaign will have
the nerve and the wisdom to make
the poor children of North Carolina.
the issue he will win in a walk. This
question is bigger than the tariff and
more vital. It touches the masses OF
our people and everybody can under
stand it. Our legislatures are too
cowardly to deal with a question like
this and the members ought toget
some instruction from their masters.
The best way to bring the question to
a head is for some bold spirit to make
it the issue and stake his political
fortunes on it, We believe the peo-
pie would sustain him and that cur
next legislature would not fall pros
trate before the little bunch of self
appointed guardians of our public ed
ucation who SO completely dominate
the situation. These men care moth
ing whatever for u public schools,
and yet they profess their allegiance
to the sacred cause of public educa-
ton. How long are we going to sub
NIT to the present policy which when
we ask for bread invariably gives US
a stone!-Charity and Children.
