For Temporary Purposes

1t is very common thing for a
man to hold his property at one val
uation for taxing purposes and to hold
it at a much higher valuation when
the government wants it for public
purposes. We have just witnessed
something of the kind in the estimates
Of population for conscription pur-
poses. The census bureau, just now
under the control Of southern demo
Gratis, gives the northern states a
much larger and the southern states
a much smaller population than any
previous rule for making estimates
would produce. Tho present estimates
are the basis Of the quotas of soldiers
to be furnished by the several states.

Coddling the l. w. WIS.

The United States of America is
probably the only nation on earth that
rounds up a mob of anarchists and, in
stead of Furnishing them, feeds, clothes
and protects them and otherwise cod
dies them with the money provided
by taxation of the very people who
have suffered through their anarchis-
tic depredations. 1t is indeed u very
strange thing that when the L. w. Ws.
robbed, beat and terrorized the peace
full citizens Of various towns in the
West, the war department, instead Of
taking the part Of The peaceful citi-
izens, establishes comfortable camps
for the outlaws, provides them with
army rations, and prevents outraged
citizens from chasing away those who
have outraged them
The menace of the L. w. WIS has
caused great alarm throughout the
districts exposed to their activity.
Kansas City has had some unpleasant
and there are indications that this
city is about due for another vista
ton from them. In the face of this
unhappy condition it is exaspcrating
for the people to feel that they can
expect no sympathy or cooperation
from the war department. Out in
Arizona are more than a thousand of
as detestable lot of outlaws as ever
got together. And these men, fresh
from their dastardly work among the
miners and citizens of Arizona towns
and camps are now resting and build
ing themselves at government expense
so that they may be in trim for fresh
depredations among the farmerB, min
ers and citizens generally. The pros
pect is exceedingly unpleasant. This
country is at war with a great and
powerful foe. We are drafting a mil
lion men for service abroad and every
citizen is being taxed heavily to main
tain this great army in the field.
What right has the government of
this country to uphold and support
|. W. W's? If the government can
not afford protection to its citizens
at home, then it ought as a matter Of
deccncy TO keep its hands off when
the citizens provide their own system
Of protection. What the government
ought to do is to act exactly as any
other nation would act under similar
circumstances when it finds an or
ganized band of enemies within its
borders. The time for simpering SEN
timent is past. There is no reason why
we should deal any more lenienty
with the enemies within our borders
than with those outside them. In
fact, the open enemy is preferable to
one who sneaks about, harassing and
killing the innocent and unprotected
people at their homes. 1t is the boast
of the 1. w. w. leaders that there are
not enough jails in this country to hold
them. If that is so, then stockades
should be built where these outlaws
can be made to work, not six hours a
day, but twelve hours a day, until
they learn that this is a land of law
and order. Let the government show
some backbone in this mattcr.-Chi-
cago Tribune.

ing-glass, or a knife. One old knife,
found in q cache hole where it had
been placed a century or more ago,
safely wrapped in buffalo robe, was
made in Sheffield and was one of the
knives sent out by the early Hudson
bay traders. The Indians sharpened
steel knife with file, on one side Of
the edge. The milestone was too
slow.
The village sites farther west are
more recent. On the Missouri river, at
the place described by Lewis and
Clark in their diary Of the exploration
Of the Northwest in 1905, TAT the bend
in the river where the river flows
west" was a large village with more
than one hundred lodges. In these
more recent villages are found brass
arm-bands and bracelets, as. we'll as IN
occasional steel ak or f1int-l0ck gun.
Their Domestic Life.
The bones in the refuse heaps show
the Arickaras lived on buffalo, deer,
antelope, elk, rabbit and wild fowl as
we'll as on corn, beans and pumpkins.
Parched corn has been found in the
lodges at every village site.
Only a sunken circle of ground like
an abandoned circus arena, but far
smaller, shows where one Of the lodges
stood. A five-family lodge, built with
big timbers, may yield part of a cedar
post almost rotted away, despite the
comparatively dry climate. Each fam
lily had it's cache-hole, or primitive
safety deposit vault. This was Jug
shaped hole four to six feet deep, In
which valuables were hidden when the
family left home to avoid hostile In
dams or to 60 on hunting trip. The
mouth of the hole was covered with
sticks and leaves, so as not toSbe dis
tinguishable from the surrounding sur'
face.
The burial customs Of the Arickaras
differed from those of the Sioux. The
Arickaras buried their dead in the
ground, while the Sioux left the bod
les of their dead, wrapped In skins, on
scaffolds or in trees. The Arickaras
buried from one to six bodies IN
grave, the body lying on the right side
with the head to the north. Digging
was hard with the primitive imple-
ments these Indians had, SO the graves
were SMALL and the bodies placed with
the knees drawn up. Scarcely any
grave contains anything but the skele-
ton. Little or no paraphernalia was
ever buried with the body, except an
occasional bead or band of brass or
copper, showing the contact with the
fur traders. The earlier burial sites
yield nothing but bones. The graves
were three to six feet deep, and above
the upper skeleton were placed slabs Of
cottonwood or ash or bundles of will
low twigs, to keep wild animals from
digging into tie grave. Other Indians
used fiat rocks for the same purpose.
There are thousands Of objects In
the universities collection Of Arickara
relics. The collection was begun In
1915. and as it grows the exact
knowledge Of the life Of these early
Dakotans increases.

thing of the orient will appreciate the

it was before this war. as it had been
for centuries, as it might always have
been, it seems, had not some newcom-
er arrived to make the herculean at
tempt to clean these truly Augean
stables. But fortune favored the new
corners. A fire burned out the old mar
ket and the center of town. Austrian
aviators destroyed many of the sur
rounding dwellings. A great open
space was left in the very spot where
the hopeless bazaars had once stood.
To the Italians an open spot and leave
to build on 1t are all man needs to
enjoy perfect bliss. They set up tenn
porary bazaars and set to work. From
buildings of immediate need they have
passed to monuments and plan il
now on foot to adorn the new public

aqucduct four miles long has been con-

district (circondario) of Chmara, with
a total population Of 165, 459 persons,
almost equally divided between the
M0slem and the orthodox Greek faiths
The census upon which the above fig
ure is based is the first to be taken In
Albania since the great census of Au-
gustus made some 1900 years ago.
Combined italian and native courts
were instituted and as result, the
classic Albanian feud rendered super
fuous, hence illegal. Schools for little
children have been opened throughout
the country, in number 124, with 1874
teachers.
Civil police service distinct from Or
binary military surveillance has been
organized with a view to granting as
large liberty as is compatible to the
civilians. The horrid Turkish prisons
were in some cases abolished, in 9th
ers thoroughly sanitlzcd. New build
ings will soon be erected. Coastal
navigation between Albanian ports
and linking them to nearby Corfu Is
encouraged within the limits OF naval
exigencies. Customs Offices with coast
patrols are already in operation and
all the money taken in is spent in I'M
proving the country. Vast hyg1entc
measures are being carried out.
For the better supervision Of tho
varied services pertaining to civil adj
ministration a secretaryship for CIVIL
affairs was instituted. It is defined
as ''the organ through which his excel
lency, General Ferrero, exercises his
powers Of watchfulness, control and
guardianship over the vast field OF

Y ITALIAN military operations in Al
bania may or may not bear fruit,
but the benefits of Italian Occupa-
a ton will prove lasting. In more
than one respect the satisfaction which
Italians have always found in likening
themselves to the ancient Romans is
justified. For the Romans possessed a
certain quality which one can call by
no better name than civilizing genius.
Where Rome passed Roman footprints
still linger indelibly, says Edgar Ansel
Mowrer in letter to the Chicago
Daily News. Though the empire of
Trajan is less than a memory, the
Roman rond, the Roman bridge, the
Roman building or wall have lasted
long after other later constructions
have crumbled into sand, for the rea-
son that the least of the Roman en-
terprises Incorporated the "Roman
idea," one of the strongest conceptions
European humanity has ever known.
Those old stern soldiers and COVER
nors civilized and embellished the peo-
pies and lands they ruled. But they
not only built cities and pushed ronds
to the ends of the earth wherever the
cohorts advanced but more enduring
cities, more substantial bridges and
better roads than this earth had seen
before or has known since.
Modern Italy has inherited much OF
the 'Roman idea" Italy today shares
the old love for bureaucratic govern
ment, for order, for solid construction
outwearing the mere ''utilitarian"
product, for in its way Italy bankers
after the same vicarious immortality
of lasting monuments which possessed
the builders Of ancient temple and
basilica. And, like the legions Of long
ago, the Italian army Of today advances
to civilize and builds for an entire
age. Ample evidence for this state
,ment may be found in the roads and
military works" at the Italian front,
but, better still, in the occupied terri
tories of southern Albania, which Italy
has either taken for itself, as Avlona,
or is holding for the barely conceived
state of Albania, whose approaching
birth it has so sententiOusly an
nOunced.
Only to n limited degree can this
work Of amelioration be attributed to
any but generous motives.
Race That Does Not Progress.
Southern Albania, rough, Wild
tract of sparsely cultivated land, is
The Tomahawk., 1917-12-13

thinly Inhabited by an old race, the
so-called Toski, forming the southern
branch Of the Albanian family. The
district has been conquered more than
once but has always remained some
what backward. During the civil wars
In ancient Rome, a number Of old SOL
diers and other partisans of the beat
en- factions, migrated thither. But
their number was too small to enable
them to give durable backbone to the
indigines, who, though wild, have rare
1y managed to present any organized
resistance to an invader. For the los
III do not apparently share the admir-
able love of independence of the north
ern Albanians. They are indeed
mild race and unless pushed to hope
]cssness by extraordinary oppression
easy to govern. And, strangely enough,
all the Albanians, though they prove
themselves in foreign lands amid other
surroundings to be quick-witted peo-
ple, capable of many things, though
they obviously possess many OF the
:nniosf virtues, have at home remained
essentially semibarbarOus. Today,
though they do not oppose, they do
almost nothing to aid the Italians in
their great work of transforming the
country, and their general impassivity
is rather like n stodgy burden which
the civilizers must constantly be lift
ing and moving from one place to en-
5;he-.
