Dakotas, and other famous Sioux
chieftalns gave themselves up at
Fort Benton and were returned
to the Standing Rock reservation,
where majority Of the Indian
leaders spent the remainder OF
their days in peace.
Peace did not enter into Sit
ting Bulls lexicon. He continued
to make mad medicine. Surround
ed by harem Of several wives
in his lonely prairie cabin, he
persisted in sending forth among
his people messages which kept
their hearts "bad' against their
white neighbors. Finally the au'
thorities found it necessary to sum-
mon Sitting Bull to Judgment.
He had ignored requests that"h he
present himself at Fort Yates for
a pow-wow, and corps of Indian
police, backed UP by troops under
command of Lieut.. Enoch n.
Crowder, now provost marshal
general Of the United States, was
dispatched to Sitting Bulls home.
Sitting Bull was prepared for
them. He had a number Of his
most faithful followers ambushed
about his cabin. As the Indian
police drew up to the medicine
mans door, they were fired upon.
The police returned fire, and in
the melee Red Tomahawk shot
down the medicine man whose
bad medicine had cost his own
people and their white neigh
bors so many years of blood
shed.

Treaty Not Understood

Mr. Wilson said he had been "aston-
ished"' at statements made about the
treaty and was convinced many Of
them were made by men who had not
read it or else had failed to compre-
hend it's meaning.
The league Of nations, he declared,
was formed in fuifiIment Of the
promise that the United States was
fighting this war to lend business Of
that sort" forever.
Not to establish the league, he said,
would be "unfaithful to those who had
died." m.
If we do not do this thing" he de-
clared, 1--WE have neglected the central
covenant we promised our people. The
league of nations is the only thing
that can prevent the recurrence Of
this catastrophe"
Protects Small Nations
81, Besides this, the president contin-
ued, the treaty decreases the chance Of
oppression and gives small nationali-
ties the right to live their own lives.
"That," he said, "was the American
position and l was glad to fight for
it."
Italy, the president continued, had
presented to the conference contrary
proposal in her request for Fiume.
Though there were only scattered
Italian settlements there, he declared,
'Italy wanted Fiume for strategic and
military purposes" If there was
league of nations Italy would not need
that foothold, he declared.
'I'd rather have everybody on my
side," he continued, "than be armed
to the teeth"
American Traditions"
Referring to criticisms that the
treaty violated American traditions,
Mr.. Wilson said he was proud that
he, too, belonged to the "old revolu-
tionary school, and that he was "fol-
lowing the purpose Of the visions
which the fathers had seen"
'This treaty is an attempt to right
the wrong of Europe" said the presi-
dent, "and in my humble opinion it is
a measurable success"
He used the word measurable" he
added, because the racial lines were
not always distinct and could not be
drawn with absolute precision on a
map.
First Day Strenuous
President Wilson arrived in Colum-
bus shortly after II o'clock.
The first day was one of the most
strenuous of the 26 which will elapse
before the president returns to Wash
ington.
Mr.. Wilson appeared in good trim
for his arduous schedule and was said
by his physician, Rear Admiral Gray
son, to be in excellent health. He re-
tired early last night.
The speech at Columbus being his
first address regarding the treaty ad-
dressed directly to the people was ex-
pected by his advisors to strike the
keynote of his entire tour.
People to Determine Boundaries
This was why, he said, some of the
boundaries were left to be decided
later by the people themselves. The
treaty, he declared, was "shot thru
with the American principle of athe
choice of government"
The treaty also contains, the presi-
dent continued, "a magma charter Of
labor" which would set up an interna-
tional labor organization. This organi-
zation, he said, would hold its first
meeting in Washington in October
whether the treaty is ratified by then
or not"
The labor sections, Mr.. Wilson said,

}URLEIGH IN THE LEAD

A report to the effect that Cass
county town and city lots were boost
ed 300 percent by the state board Of
equalization is incorrect, states Carl
Kositzky, state auditor. The state
board decreed an increase of 43 per-
cent in Cass county, which brought
the final valuation up to 300 percent
of last years assessment. The origi-
nal increase was made by the Cass
county board of equalization under
the terms of North Dakota's new
classification act.
Some of the valuations as returned
by the county boards were cut. Grand
Forks county, for instance, turned in
it's town and city lots at $4,1S1,832,
and the state board ordered a reduc-
ton to $3,956,760. Burleigh county
was turned in by the county board at
$3,O0S,407 and was boosted to SO, 148,
020 Other county valuations on town
and city lots, as left by the state
board of equalization and as returned
were as follows
Barnes, $2,137, ,43O-$1 $685. ,OOS; Cass,
$10,563, 793-$7,399,4O4; Morton. $685.
