TRAIN FISH TO
ANSWER BELL

PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 3.-When
The county bought the Multnomah
farm, near Troutdale, that since has
been made the home for the poor and
afflicted, there was a small creek run
ming throught corner of the sec
tion. u. d. Jackson, superintendent,
at once decided TO dam 1t and make
a FISH pond, 30 when the other work
about the place was finished he went
10 work constructing the small lake.
This completed, he set out to stock
It with FISH, but could not make up
his mind just what kind to put in
It. County Commissioner Lightner,
who passed all OF his summer boy
hood days fishing for mudcats along
an Illinois creek, wanted these water
kittens put in, while County Judge
Cleeton suggested goldfish; Bob"
Shaw though suckers inst the thing.
After getting all these expert opin-
ions Jackson decided to MI the pond
with carp, so he went over to the
Sun Dial Ranch Just after the river
had gone down last spring and with
q net obtained a wagon eox load OF
these FISH They were plantel in the
lake, and then Che superintendent
~@1-A @ htANhbA A0Nhs AA0NlnE cNtn
trained seals in the circus, he thought
he would train the carp.
Giving orders for no one to feed his
new pets but himself, jackson armed
with large cowbell would set on the
bank of the lake Of evenings and
ring the bell until all the COWS in
that part OF the county had gone TO
sleep: then he would throw some
feed on the waters for the fish. He
always went to the same spot on the
bank 10 ring the old cowbell. and
never fed the fish until he had rung
the tinker until his arms ached.
And now-mind you, this is the
honest truth-whenever he rings
that bell the fish can be seen swim
ming from all directions TO where
the noise comes from, and they jump
up out Of the water and do all sorts
Of antics until they are fed. This
sounds awfully fshy: but it's SO Just
'he same.

PUEBLO INDIANS CLAIM ALL
RIGHTS OF CITIZENSHIP

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 3.--The
unique history OF the Pueblo Indians
of New Mexico is to be reviewed by
the Supreme Court OF the United
States to determine whether they
rank along with ordinary Indians as
wards OF the nation or whether they
are citizens of the United States with
all the rights of citizenship.
A case involving this point was
docketed in the court The question
arose when the Government charged
Felipe Sandoval with introducing IL
quor into Indian Territory.
The defense was that the Pueblos
were not to be classed as wards OF
the nation, as were the wandering
tribes Of Indians. but af'er decades Of
community life, ranked wish the other
people Of New Mexico as full fledged
citizens.

law as In the enforcement Of the law.
This man and that breaks laws and
ordinances and gets away with It."
The reason the law Is not obeyed ~
because those charged with enforce
ment of the law choose to suspend its
operation.
There Is need Of official notice of
street conditions everywhere The
scorcher should be picked up whoever
he may be. When children under legal
age are found driving cars something
should be doing. The recent purchaser
who is learning to drive should be given
to understand that busy street is no
place for his operations and those who
drive for pleasure should not be per-
mitted to make a boulevard of crowded
business streets on occasions when the
streets are full of pedestrians.
1t is a tendency Of Americans to
crowd the limit The limit means just
what they can get away with, what
others are doing. Another American
trait is to submit cheerfully to a gen.
eral enforcement Of general ordinance
or law. The reason the speed runs
high is not because the American pub
hard to find these in authority who
actually attemp, or intend to do their
duty.
