Recall" in Mexico.

II ever YOU felt that below us there dweit
A rather inferior nation:
That old Mexico was a little bit slow
On the speedway of civilization.
Just open your eyes and your own laws
revise,

She's got the recall-whieh We haven

And a perfectly good referendum.
You have pleaded and worked. You have

But there never was anything In IT:
Your years pass in fight for that privi-

That Mexico gets in a minute
How foolish to paw over matters OF law
In framing statute addendum.
Why don't you stand tall for the Huerta

And the Cavalry Troop Referendum?
Why all that you need, if yon don't like

BEEDE SCORES The
GOVERNMENT RED TAPE

Mclaughlin, S. D., Dec. lin an ad-
dress here, the Rev. DR.. Meg. Beede
OF Fort Yates, N. D., took exception to
the manner in which the Indians Of the
C~annonball country in his section of
the Dakotas are treated by the govern
ment. He cOntended that the Indians
on the Standing Rock reservation, and
especially those OF the Cannonball
country, are without sufficient re-
sources to maintain themselves in
comfort until spring, and attributed
this condition to the failure Of the
government to adopt efficient farming
methods on the reservation, while the
farming implements that have been is
sued by the government to the Indians
within recent years have been made
quate to meet the needs Of a Dakota
farmer.
Local government employees, it was
claimed, are hampered in their work by
the miles Of red tape necessary to
unwind with the Washington author
tiles before they can act. Other resi-
dents Of this section c~orroborate the
statements Of the clergyman, and state
that a radical change of methods is
necessary If the Indian is to be placed
on a self-sustaining basis, and some
Of the white settlers have suggested
the organization Of a mutual benefit
league among the whites and Indians
to work for a change in reservation
methods that will rebound to the bene.
fit Of both whites and reds. =

STILL FIGHTING
THE CHANT'Z CASE

Bismarck. n. d, Dec. 1.-THE appli-
cater of Peter Chaunt2 Of Mandan for
a writ of habeas corpus vas heard in
the supreme court yesterday. 1t Will
be remembered that Chauntz was sem
fenced nearly six years e to serve
ninety days in Jail and pay d fine of
5000 for an alleged violation Of the
prohibition law. After years Of delay
and contest, he was incarCorated In
the Morton county Jail on the last day
of last month. His attorneys applied
to the district court for a writ of ha-
beas corpus and Judge NeuSsle sitting
for Judge Nuchols, denied the petition
and an appeal was made to the SUI
preme court.
The case was argued yesterday on
behalf of the petitioner by Senator l..
A. Simpson of Dickinson and Hanley
& Sullivan Of Mandan and on behalf
Of the state by Judge Carmody, as
sistant attorney general and States
Attorney Biting Of Morton county.
The applicants argued that when the
supreme court RENTED the case by
act to the district court on March 10,
1910 hat the sentence should have
been imposed at that time and since
it was not, that it has O~utlawed-90 days
from that date should have completed
his sentence. This contention was de-
MED by the state and the matter was
taken under advisemnt by the court.
Briefs will be submitted and the case
fought to the bitter end.

is in harder circumstances today than
for any time in the history Of the
county. But very few will be able to
poy up accrued interest, to say moth
ing of the principal. The cause for
these conditions is poor farming. A
great deal of land is held by investors,
who have poor renters, and both the
country and land suffer thereby. Land
sales are unheard of. However, the
country will work it's way out in time.
The spectators will get sick of their
bargains and let go Of the land at fair
prices, and when they do that a lot
of staple farmers will take up the work.
Most of the blowing has been done,
and already for an early start next
