MIR. SELLS VISITED THE INDIANS

tBrule, $. ID. Farmer ana StoCkman)
The oldest citizens of the Lover
Rrule reservation say that Commits
sioner Sells is the second commission
err Of Indian affairs to set foot on this
reservation. A long time ago Com
missioner Brown visited this agency
for n few hours.
Commissioner Sells made a close in
spection Of the agency and school
and drove more than a hundred miles
visiting from house to house on the
reservation. He shook hands with
practically every Indian man, woman
and child on the reservation, and
came back the second time and met
and talked and walked with nearly
5000 Sioux Indians from all parts Of
North and South Dakota.
He covered more ground, met more
people, went straight to the base of
more business, and made more friends
for the Indians among white people,
and more friends for himself among
the Sioux Indians than any man who
has visited South Dakota in many
years. We most worked ourselves to
death trying to keep up with him.
We failed to keep up, and recommend
anyone desiring to practice the siren
nous life to follow him for just one
week He Is n human dynamo and
his visit to this reservation has been
an inspiration to each person here, be
he Indian, employe or school student.

TILE EIGHT-HOUR DAY.

1t Is worth while that the eight hour
policy should have been brought
ncutcly before the American people,
even If the Adamson bill actually
meant Increase Of pay rather than
shortening Of hours for the brother
hoods
The workingman's eight hour day
comes nearer In practically every line
Of urban employment, within a few
years 1t will be generally in force. ana
while to many men, particularly to
the farming classes who have been
accustomed to a twelve or fourteen
hour day, the shorter day may seem
like a species of idling, still the pro
position that. II all men worked hon
estly for eight hours daily none would
need TO work longer in order to earn
his daily bread, seems logical, and
the principal involved seems fair.
But thls does not mean that any
man would work only eight hours. TO
do so, except at certain kinds of cx-
Cecdingly arduous labor would mean
deterioration. The shorter day. lhow-
ever. brings the greatest opportunity
for individual advancement this CEN
fury has yet offered. The average

Backachc Of any kind is often cans.

The latest and most effective mean,
of overcoming this trouble, is to ca,
