GOVERNMENT AFTER
sUP'R SALOONS
Charge Them With Sell
ing Liquor
~
70 INDIANS At THE FEDERAL B0uRT
Federal Officers After the vioIators
There.

Tie federal Court dragnet threatens some
saloon keepers according 10. reports from
Superior, where the Federal Court is hold-
ing It's spring session.
Half dozen government sleurhs, II is
said. are busy gathering evidence against
Superior liquor. dealers. who are alleged to
be selling their,wa to Indians in open
defiance Of the law.
During the session of the federal grand
} Jury, scores .of indians from reservations are
{ III aNendance there, raitng to appear as
witnesses i'll liquor cares and during thar
time are subjected to the liqror element
tint are abundant in that CITY. 1t is rumor-
c the sleuths have secured evidences against
some of the proprictors.
The secret session of tie jury is not cx-
pectcd to adjourn for week yet, indict-
nentS against them wil probably he COM
inunicated to the court before that time, so
that warrants may be issued and the alleged
offenders arrested before they have chance
10 escape. !.
Iie above fact goes a long way to up
hold our contention that sessions of this
character or otherwise should be held on
the reservations on which the crime or
crimes ase committed Is il not better for
the Indian that this should be done as il
would not be submitting him to the temp
tation of drink which the department is
attempting to keep from him, but. as it is
aow he is taken TO some place sor hearing
and is thus thrown in the way OF whiskey.
While on TIE other hand if session of
court was held on reservations he would not
be thus thrown i'll the way Of drink as it
would not be there to get and it would be
just Us convenient for the Judges, etc. TO
hold these sessions on re. ervation. Then
again it would mean many dollars saved for
the Indian, while we cannot say thot such is
the case, but Goes not the Indian have to
fout all these expenses incurred by tlesc
trips, it is undoubtedly the lions share ia Is
TO them.
So VIC think that this deal at Superior
should at last open the ewes of the depart
inent to the fact that il is much better
plan to hold sessions of every character on
/ the reservations, as they in this way would
be protecting the Indians interest in two
ways First from being thrown in the cein-
pany of whiskey and second by aiding in
saving his money. is this not sufficient
reason for the reservation plan! We think
il is.
Federal court adjourned yesterday after
noon and members Of the petit jury were
excused until Monday, after 10 defendants
had been arraigned on charges of Illegal
sale of liquor to Indians

AGES OF THE FLAGS.

Cautiously enough, the United
States, while one of the youngest
nations. displays the oldest flag, COM
paratively speaking.
The American flag in it's present
form, was adopted in the year 1877,
and the only changes made in it
since that time have been addition
of new stars as they came into the
Union. Our British cousins often
refer in affectionate terms to their
ensign as the flag that has "braved
thousand years. the battle and the
breeze" But they forget that the
union jack in it's present form dates
only from 1901.
The French tricolor was adopted in
1894; the Spanish flag. as now dis
played. in 1855. while the Italian
and German flags are no older than
the empire and the kingdom, respect
lively.

Deep, dark blue, black, prairie green
and tete de negre brown are the col
ors which are replacing the gaily
hued clothes of the summertime. The
exceptions are royal blue and copper
color.
Metallic effects are supreme and
are seen in weird and queer combina-
tons; for instance. a rich yellow bro
caded with silver; fine gold tissue
is Swallowed with gray, and worn
over tomato red and emerald green.
The stripes continue to be popular
and are brilliant in their contrast.
Quarter-inch stripes of pink and
black. blue and black. yellow and
black, and many other colors with
black are seen upon all the store
counters.
The marble effects are late nov
city in silks and ribbons and are eff
fective indeed. but probably the most
fascinating Of these novelty silks are
the fur limitations, leopard, with its
black spots and civet cat with its
effective markings, all are repre-
scented.
Colors for millinery differ from
the colors of frocks and costumes.
Among these is a new blue called
ciel d'Egypte Of Egyptian sky blue.
This new shade has touch of dull
green in its composition, and is espe-
cially handsome in velvet used for
the facing to wide brimmed hats.
Fragonard and Natter blues con-
tinue to be very smart for certain
types of hats.
From the Balkan disturbance came
the Balkan blouse and many Turkish
effects in clothes, now the Mexican
trouble has brought out silks and rib
bons in Aztec colors and designs and
it will be interesting to note the eff
feet the present war will have upon
our clothes. 1t may be only mill
tary effect, and yet there may be
some outcome more interesting,
which may spring up and influence
our clothes-as the long tunic and
basque appeared-overnight.

WHEAT ALONE TO Be EXPORTED
10 THIS coUNTRY's ONLY EXCESS
FOOD SUPPLY.
zoe, o0o, 900 Bushels for Export-AI
Other Crops Are Short Says
Federal Report.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Wheat alone
will be an excess in the country's food
supply to be exported to Europe. De
partment Of agriculture reports indt
cate that this is to be q short croI
year in every other cereal.
With the largest wheat crop on rec
ord from present indications $4,000.
600 bushels, there is prospect that
approximately 300,000,000 bushels
might be available for export. With
wheat selling at more than $1.10 q
bushel this would cost foreign buyers
100000.
It will be Offset, however, by dc
creased takings of American cotton
abroad. Last year the United statea
exported $547,000,000 worth Of cotton
but from present indications this
years exports will fall far below that
amount.
It is pointed out that there will b
little or no corn offered for export
because Of the short crop. Last year
was also short corn year and q con.
siderable quantity Of corn was i'm.
ported as probably will be the case
this year.
