Burke's O
Courage O
and
Ability

urrss, for the position Of United States senator
for the March primaries. Mr.. Burke will there
fore be pitted against Mr.. Crawford, who has
been chosen bv the "maiority'' faction.
It has been altogether too frequently neces-
sary, in order to ascertain precisely the position
occupied by some of our 'emlnent" statesmen
down at Washington, to send out a ommtte
armed with a political search warrant. Tins Is
the complaint made even by some of the ma
~iority' faction with respect to the candidate
whom it's representatives have named.
But Mr.. Burke, always consistent, has never
been charged with a wavering disposition or a
tendency to dodge. His most persistent critics
give him credit for uprightness and a political
stamina that commands their admiration. This
striking characteristic of the man is one secret Of
his marked political success.
Whether Mr.. Burke will be able to muster sui
fcient strength to encompass Mr.. CraWford's de-
feat may be open to question, but 1t IS widely
known throughout the state that even Mr.. Burke's
political opponents concede that his intense 10y
altv TO what he conceives to be his public duty
constitutes an element Of strength that the
friends Of his principal opponent would much pre-
fer not to have to reckon with.
The Vermillion Republican is %fifty-four years
old. Think Of it! a paper that contains all the

and all that a country weekly should be, and
even more. The publishers and the readers are
alike to be congratulated

In all of their criticisms of Judge McNultv

AFTER TWO YEARS ADJuDGED IN

ADMIT INTELLIGENCE

Washington, July AFTER "a years
behind the bars under life sentence for
murder, Spopee, a Blackfoot Indian
was Internationally pardoned today
by President Wilson. He %ill be re-
leased at once from the federal hos
pital for the insane here TO return to
his daughter at Browning, Montana,
whom he has not seen since she was
baby.
A party OF Blackfoot Indians, sight
seeing in Washington months ago,
happened on Spopee, grown gray with
his long Imprisonment. They estab-
lished his tribal identity by an Indian
song, and one of the interpreters re-
&C gnized in Spopee the hero of an old
legend, who had disappeared a score
of years ago into some white mans
iail. Blackfoot mothers have been
singing their children to sleep with a
song about him ever since.
Officials of the Indian office, advis-
ed of the discovery, began an investi-
CATION which resulted in his pardon.
Spopee was charged with the MUIR
| der of q white man near the Canadian

lit is thought by the deparTsent of
justice, that the murder probably was
committed in Canada and that the
territorial courts of Montana, which
tried him at Fort Benton, had no ju-
risdiction.
Moreover, 1t is now believed that
Spopee committed the murder in self
defense. He and another Indian,
Goodrider, asked white man for
food. Their request was denied and
the white man denounced Spopee fin
ally assaulting him with an axe. The
Indian claims to have fired in self
defense and his story is credited by
the department Of justice.
After Spopees conviction at Fort
Benton and sentence to death he
was removed to the federal prison at
Fort Leavenworth. While awaiting
execution the Indian maintained abso-
lutte silence His conduct was SO uri-
usual that he was believed to be in
sane and after two years was removed
to the federal hospital here where he
has been held prisoner for 80 years.
.Spopee is regarded as an Intelligent
Indian by physicians who have exam
iDed him since the movement to OBJ
tain his release was begun. Commits
sioner Sells Of the Indian office took
the case up and arranged today to
send Spopee back to his' people. ="
