RECORD HISTORY OF INDIANS

The American Indian is approach
ing, if indeed he has not already
reached, the last stage of his native
existence. Recent reports from Sit
ka, of the ravages Of pulmonary dis
eases among the Indians In Alaska,
where they are leading the lives led
by their fathers, indicate that the In
dian will disappear from the CONT
nent unless he adopts the white mans
civilization, and adapts himself to it.
In either case the records of his own
civilization will be lost unless the
government takes immediate steps
toward aiding the Modern Historic
Records association, or some other
body engaged in similar work in
preserving some records of the cul-
ture,s arts, industries and domestic
and social organizations, the customs,
games and pastimes, work and play
of the primitive settlers of America.

q The so-called Racine plan of setting
aside a district and levying direct
tax on the property included in it is
the best plan suggested UP to date of
financing the property owners share
of the cost of installing and maintain
ing the cluster lighting system which
it is proposed to establish in the
down town business district. The
advantages of the cluster Light
system doing away as it does with
overhead wires on the streets and
making the streets attractive are
obvious, but the people who have to
pay extra for the Improvement are
the ones to decide whether or not they
want the new system installed. The
council should not go ahead with any
plans for the installation Of these
lights until the aldermen are certain
thar the property owners upon whom
it is proposed to levy this special tax
are practically unanimous for the
change. Many of the merchants and
business men, especially those with
long leases, may be expected to favor
the improvement, but that does not
alter the fact that the men who will
be expected to foot share of the ex-
pense should have the say in the mat.

The ordinance against the unneces-

on the streets of the city is now in
force and the police will be expected
to enforce in with discretion. The
ordinance is not aimed at the people
who only open their muffIers when it
is necessary and who habitually show
consideration for the rights of others
when operating their machines, but
the crazy fools who have been racing
about the streets at all hours of the
night making all the noise they posi-
bly, could will be brought up with a

ers the new ordinance gives them.
Some of these drivers have been max

opportunity and it is up to the police
to convince them that the new law is
not intended as a joke.

TRACK WILL Be FAST
Hughie Hughes Declares
the Milwaukee Track
Will be a Wonder.
MANY TO ENTER BIG EVENT

"When I return east shall tell the
auto race enthusiasts about the fast
track that is being built for the Van
derbilt cup races in Milwaukee," said
" Hughie" Hughes before leaving Mil
waukee on Sunday.
"They know in New York and else
where that fine speedway road route
is in process of construction here, but
they do not appreciate the fact that the
track promises to be by far the best in
the country for both speed and safety.
[ have been interested in the races
here from the first, but confess that
my enthusiasm took bound when I
saw the opportunity for new road rec
ords. The race surface will be unex-
celled and with four long straightways
and only four turns and they so wide
and safe that they may be taken at a
speed of 70 miles per hour, records
are sure to go glimmering."
Hughes reiterated his statement that
he expected to hand up a new record
for medium displacement cars in the
Pabst Blue Ribbon races, and asserted
that any who should defeat him in the
Vanderbilt Cup or Grand Prix must ex-
cell present records.
Work on the course will be rushed
with greatly enlarged crews this week.
Tt is expected that a great portion of
the course will be ready for the oil
when Contractor A. B. Chamberlain ar
rives on Saturday to begin that part
Of the week.
Hughes has a record as daring and
successful driver. He holds the Savan-
nah Cup and was third in the 500 mile
Speedway race at Indianapolis.

will keep on boiling water until condi-

water at the intake is badly polluted.
The water is polluted and while it
may not be a dangerous condition it is
my advice to people to boil it before
using it, said DR.. McShane this morn
ing. cit is important that this course
should be followed so long as there is
danger from typhoid germs. The sam

ing the past few days have shown bad
