EDUCATE THE GIRLS.

y -
There was a time when the privi-
legs OF education WAS limited TO
priests and monks chiefly. Then
it WAS extended to incuds the gov
srning classes, princes and mobiles;
now it has come to be recognized
among all enlightened people as a
prereq uisite to good citizenship all
therefore tho birthright of all men
and women, whether OF high or
low degree.
And yet in many respectable
quarters there remain traces OF the
degraded conceptions of women
hold by the ancients and by some
Oriental peoples to this day "A
conception which made woman the
slave IF her lord and master whose
highest mission in life was to serve
him and minister to his comfort
aud pleasure. But the conception
of woman as mere "plaything and
toy" is giving place to saner re-
cognition of woman as the peer of
man in most respects and infinite
ly his superior in many of tho fin
er things OF life.
Therefore the education Of the
girl is no longer regarded among
intelligent folks as a trifling mat
tor. The principle of sacrificing
the widow Of the deceased man
upon tbs funeral pyre of her hus-
band no longer finds it's modern
counterpart in leaving the wife
and her children, upon the death
of the husband and father, help
less and dependent upon the as
sistancs of chsritsbly disposed
friends; it is taboo wherever true
chivalry exists today. As desira
bic and as necessary as it is to
equip the boy to the end that the
man may be able to hold his owr
ia the battle of life, it is a duty
far more sacred to train the CIR
the highest point of efficiency to
in order that the woman may face
with confidence the supreme re-
sponsibilitiss repossd in her sex
+ The task should appeal at once
to our sense of justice aud to the
innate chivalry of the true gentle
man. The most skillfui artisan
the race has produced has never
vet contrived armor that affords
such perfect protection to mar
when asssiled by his foes ae i,
that invisible armor Of honor anC

MATSON AFTER POLICE
Camping on Trail of Ashland Police
Force.


Police and Fire Commissioner Matson, of
Ashland seems to be camped on the trail OF
the Ashland Police force. Several weeks
ago he preferred charges again Chief Blair
in an endeavor to secure his removal. Now
he is after Patrolmen Dennis Mcclellan for
the alleged clubbing of one Stewart. In
part Mr.. Matson says 81 was the only com
missioner to vote against McGeehan's con-
frmation and l prophesied then that he
would be too hot headed to make coed.
If one half the charges brought by Mr.. Mat
son are true then we say it IS up to the
Police and fire commissioner to make a
through and searching inquiry into the mat
tar. :. 1t is fact worth mentioning here at
this time and one that the business men of
Ashland should inquire into is the way the
Indian is Disseminated against by this depar
tment is it right that this should be is no: the
Indian as good as his white brothern. OF
course there are some that overstep the bou
nd of decency and to those we have no sim
pathy and they are undoubtedly nuisance
to the Police, but all should not be made to
suffer for the evil-doings of few. We have
had brought to our attention the case of one
James Kajune, if true, it is disgrace to
the fair names of the city Of Ashland and
reflects on its citizens. 1t seems that some
time last spring lKajune and his wife were
in Ashland con sulting with Maytor Hopper
yam as to the burial of their child at this
place, and were on their way to the florist
to secure a few flowers for same, when
they were accosted by one of Ashlands'
Guardians of the Law and it was with diff
ficulty that they were allowed to proceed
on their way. If this be true, then we say
it is time that something was done to REM
edy the matter. Is it to, the benefit of Ash
land and its business men as well as its cltl-
zens, that matters PERTAINING to such as this
should be stopped.

Takes Cold Bath.

We are informed that one of our genial
townsmen while returning home one night
recently from lodge meeting in Ashland
conceived the idea that he could duplicate
the feat of Speedy the high diver and to
prove to his friends that he could do SO
undertook the feat from the Northwestern
bridge and is now confined to his home
with injuries sustained by coming in con:
tact with log in Bad River. His friends
with difficulty rescued him from the icy
waters of Bad River. Reports from the
sick room is to the effect that as soonas able
to be around he will attempted the feat
again. But nevertheless he had a very
narrow escape from death as the river at
this point is filled wife logs.

On This Reservation
Not News to Citizens
ORE DISCOVERY REPORTS BEFORE
In This Paper Thought il Was q Joke
Item.

In: Tuesdays Ashland News an article
was published in regards the finding of ore
on this reservation by a government official
If the news will remember we published an
article several months ago in regards to the
discovery of Iron Ore here and the samples
secured were assayed with good results.
The finding of mineral of this kind on this
reservation does not come as surprise as
for years this has been konwn by the Indians
We can go even further than the reported
finding of ore and state that silver has been
found here that has assayed $1S.9s per ton
and that within few miles of this village.
The News says the United States Steel cor
poration has taken notice. This ore found
is on the reservation and known by several
Indians, but no credence was given to it
until now as it was taken as hoax. But
the question now is could anyone touch this
body of ore until it becomes the property of
an individual. The finding of ore in paving
quantities would mean much to our village
as it would mean the erecting of ore docks
on Bad River and big boom to our village
This we have long contended should this body
of ore prove good, then it is up TO Us to see
to it that the benefits derive direct to us,
experience isa good teacher. 1t would be
a very simple matter to make Bad River a
snavigable stream for ore carriers and would
save miles OF transportation. 1t will be but
a matter of few years when finds Of this
character viii be common as this is emily the
beginning.
