WEAR FLAG MEMORIAL DAY
Madison Veterans TO Arouse Spirit
of Patriotism-Ask G. A. r. of
State to Cooperate.

Madison.-In order to arouse a
spirit of patriotism among the peo-
pie of the state, the Henry Hardin
camp of the Sons of Veterans has
decided to push a campaign for the
wearing of the flag on Memorial day
1t is likely that the local post, in
conjunction with the others in the
state, will secure large quantity of
small American flags and distribute
them on May so. The flags will be
small enough to be worn on the
lapel of the coat. Letters have been
sent out 20 the other state camps

paign.

WILL NOT INSURE CAPITOL
State Adheres 10 Deficiency Fund
Plan-Deficit Caused by Loss of
Old Capitol IS Wiped Out.

Madison. Contrary to the policy
followed by most states, the state of
Wisconsin will not insure its $4,000
600 capitol, now under construction,
through private companies The pol
icy of insuring the statehouse, uni
versity buildings, the state asylums
and other public institutions by a
deficiency fund process rather than
by private companies was instituted
during the reign of Gov, La Toilette
and has been continued by his sue
cessors.
The old capitol burned in 1904
and left a deficit of $4,000 in the
fire insurance fund. Most states
would probably Lave abandoned such
an experiment with an apparently
disastrous law, but Wisconsin chose
to cling to this principle, and the
accumulations of subsequent years
have wiped out the deficit.

Madison Members of the state

000-acre tract in the vicinity of Lit
tie Car lake. near Tomahawk, from
an old lumber company. 1t is be-
lieved this transaction will be con-
summated in a few days as a result

While at Tomahawk the forestry
board viewed the agricultural lands

AID is SOUGHT FOR INDIANS
catawbas Of South Carolina Have Al.
ways Been Friendly to the
Whites.

In South Carolina is the earliest
civilized tribe of Indians in the United
States, and they are not the wards of
the government. These are the Ca
tawbas. and they number approximate
ly 100.
State Senator w. H. Stewart, of
South Carolina. is in Washington to
confer with the congressional delega-
ton of that state with the view OF
having these Indians placed on the
same basis as all other red men, and
1t is probable that bill will shortly
be introduced to this end
1T l. strange, perhaps. that the Ca,
tawba Indians. who have been wards
of the state of South Carolina for
many years should never have receiv-
ed any recognition from the national
government" said Senator Stewart,
but it is fact. nevertheless. The
Catawbas are the only American In
dams, so far as my knowledge goes,
that have always been friends of the
white man. They never took the blood
of white man. and during all the
early struggles of the whites against
the Indians the Catawbas remained
true. They were In what is now South
Carolina when the first whites reach
ed that territory, and they have re-
NAMED there.
For long time the Cherokees oc-
cupied the same territory. and there
was continual strife between the two
tribes, for the Cherokees were among
the most bloodthirsty tribes on this
continent. In all the struggles the Ca.
tawbas took sides with the settlers
against the Cherokees. The latter In
dams massacreG. many OF the settlers
in South Carolina.
The state government. after having
taken care of these Indians for so
many years, now is seeking to have
the national government make pro.
vision for them, so that they can. in
common with other Indians, have
lands lands allotted to them and be.
come American citizens, which is on.

 The sign of subtraction was derived from the word minus" The word was first contracted into mus, with a :, horizontal line above to indicate the contraction. which was a printers : freak that may be found in almost any book bearing date earlier than the beginning of the eighteenth century. After the lapse of long period of time the letters were omitted altogether, leaving only the short line so well known to all.
 The multiplication sign was obtained by changing the plus sign into char acter resembling the letter X. This was done: simply because. multiplica tion is but shorter form of addition.
