Nebraska's Aboriginal Inhabitants.


Omaha, Oct S.-To the Editor of
The Bee: You printed recently let
ter from "A member Of the State His
torical society" who is rather doubtful
as to the historical accuracy of some
Of the floats in the historical parade,
and particularly the Mandan float.
He does not think the Mandans ever
lived in Nebraska, but has the idea
they were in Wyoming when Lewis
and Clark came up the Missouri in
1904.
AS I understood 1t, the Mandan
float in the parade was not intended
to show an early Nebraska tribe, but
simply the type Of "earth-lodge,"
often called "Mandan lodge" which
was used by all Of the agricultural
tribes of the upper Missouri, including
four Nebraska tribes. Modern
archaeologists are pretty well agreed
that the Mandans never were in Ne
braska They appear to have come
from the east, reaching the Missouri
somewhere in northern South Dakota
and moving slowly up the river, build
ing villages here and there. In 1888
the French explorer Verendrye found
this tribe living in several large vii
lagos (some say seven and some nins)
near the present site of Bismarck,
N. d. They remained in that vicinity
until after the great smallpox (about
1880 and were then forced by the
Sioux to move higher up and build
new villages on the Missouri near the
mouth of Knife River, N. D.
The early tribes of eastern Nebraska
were all agricultural and all lived in
earth-lodge villages. The Pawnees
were almost certainly the first of
these tribes to reach Nebraska. They
came from the southwest or south and
e belonged to the Caddoan family of
tribes, their closest kinsmen being the
Wichitas who are generally admitted
to have been the Quiviras whom
Coronado visited in 1541. The
Pawnees were therefore probably liv-
ing in this region, II not actually in
Nebraska at that date.
The Arikaras were living with the
Pawnees, in fact, were part Of the
tribe; but sometime before 1900 the
Arikaras left the Pawnees and moved
up the Missouri river into the

The Barber-salesman or CRATER?

Omaha, Oct ITO the Editor OF
| The Bee Last Saturday one of our
local BARRIERS was fined SIS and costs
| before Judge Foster on the plea of a
| customer that he was overcharged. II
| seems the customer visited the shop
| and the barber, with the consent of
| the customer, worked on him until he
had accumulated a bill for something
| over q dollar. When the bill was
presented the customer objected and
| called a policeman to arrest the bar
| Der.
1t was question Of veracity, the
word of the customer against that of
the barber. In this instance the COM
| plant was lodged by a vaudeville per-
| former playing in a f1ve-cent show; a
stranger OF whose reputation nothing
was known. On the other hand the
barber is resident of Omaha and a
respected citizen. This appears to be
a clear case Of miscarriage of Justice:
no doubt aggravated through pre-
judice and, should it be allowed to
stand, will eventually discriminate
against the barber to such an extent
as to leave him at the mercy of every
tightwad. sponger and bum who has
nerve enough to threaten the barber
with a policeman's club.
Inc majority OF DarDer shops nave
their bill of prices plainly marked and
within sight of every patron. 1t is
just the same as visiting any kind Of a
business establishment. You may go
into a store to buy a collar: the
smart clerk will ask II there is any,
thing else and perhaps show you some
Shirts neckties, hose, ETC., and try to
persuade you to buy. II you do make
additional purchases he is considered
smart salesman. On the other hand,
II you go to a barber shop for a shave
and the barber suggests haircut,
shampoo. massage, etc., the wares he
has to sell, and you give your consent,
then the barber, according to Judge
Foster, Is not salesman, but a
CRATER.
The barber is a business man
rendering necessary service to the
community. Many BARRIERS have
homes and families, respected by their
neighbors, and are good boosters and
upbuilders of Omaha. They pay taxes.
spend their money here and perform
useful function In our community.
The barber will average up with any
group Of citizens anywhere. Then
why this discrimination on the part
of the police court. ]. BECKER.
