with local treatment pronounced 1t incur-

later, as we know them, at Man.
dan' N. D. Associated with the
above many other relics were also
a scalp of some unfortunate white
man. The dry condition of the
cave wall preserved the articles
lost by the Indians. Fragments
of buffalo skin tanned and even
the sinews were still intact on the
shanks of some of the arrowpoints
that fastened them to the shafts.
1t is not to be inferred that the
Indians made this permanent
abiding place, but probably only
as a "Wayside Inn' on their
hunting trips and during storms,
and yet they did occupy the cave
long enough or often enough to
cover the walls of the cave and the
wall across the draw with inscrip-
tions and figures. Most of these
are meaningless to the white man,
but meant much to the Indian.
With the exception of a small area
on the west side, the walls have
fallen in, and most of the inscrip-
tons are covered up by camp de-
bris. Those still intact have been
defaced by recent visitors so eager
to leave their names in public
places. Those left, as we'll as
those north of the mouth of the
cave, have been photographed,

The Saturday Evening Post OF
May 22d, 1920, contained an article
by Donald Wilhelm entitled I'm
scrambling the Departments, in
which the author discusses in a
very brilliant manner the merits
of the Jones-Reavis Bill, which
proposes to reorganize the Interior
Department of the Government.
Mr.. Wilhelm states among other
things: Accordingly the Jones'
Reavis Bill creates, to replace the
Department of the Interior as it
is now constituted, a Department
of Public Works. 1t provides for
the transfer from the Department
of the Interior of all eleemosynary
and other functions that do not
relate: substantially to construc-
ton, engineering, architecture,
other publlc.work functions, and
gathers Into the Department, of
Public Works all civil work re-
lated thereto. .,."z: M. 80 ! s.,
ITO accomplish the establish
-ment- of Public Works SURPRISING.
" few Changes are necessary
Thus the Jones--Reavis Bill looks
to the transfer of the Patent Office
to the Department Of Commerce,
the Bureau of Pensions to the
Treasury, the Bureau of Education
to the Department of LABOR,
which has large participation in
social matters, and though retain
ing the engineering and construc-
tional and surveying functions OF

transfers St. Elizapeth's Hospital
for the Insane and the Freedmen 8
Hospital to the Public Health
Service, and the Columbia 1nstltu-
ton for the Deaf and Howard
University to the Bureau of Edu-
cation. y ! ..
While our interest in the above
is confined only to that part OF the
Jones-Reavis Bill which proposes
to transfer the Bureau of Indian
Affairs and the functions of the
Board of Indian Commissioners to
the Department of Labor, we are
rot prepared just at present to say
whether such transfer would or
would not be to the best interests
of the Indians of the Quilted States,
but of one thing we are certain,
and that is that any change. no
matter what it may be, would be
more acceptable to the Indians we
believe than the present Indian

backgrounds of this section, and
those vaguely known ones on
which white men and Indians
fought, are to be located and
marked during a tour which Major
Frank D. Baldwin, veteran of the
Indian wars, is just starting from
Billings. The generals home is
at Denver, where he has lived
since his retirement from the army.
He has been the guest here of
Joseph Zimmermad, who served
under General Baldwin when the
latter was a first lieutenant of K
company of the Fifth infantry
during the Indian campaign.
General Baldwin, with his fell
low officer, General Miles, actual
ly made much of the Indian war
history Of eastern M l.kgE he ter-
ritory in which he campaigned
more than 40 years ago.
General Baldwin will be accom-
panied by Mr.. Zimmerman. They
will 20 first to Miles City, where
they will meet a party from the
east interested In the work. Gen.
eral Baldwin is equipped with ole
field notes, and says he is certain
he can locate all the old battle
grounds and skirmish places, as
we'll as discovering from infdrma-
ton furnished him by Indians the
spot on which enemy tribes of In
dams fought battles. Residents in
each community adjacent to the
battlefelds are now arranging to
furnish the materials and labor
necessary to provide the places
with concrete markers.

following places where important
fights with the Indians took place.

"Cox's Views of the League" is the
theme Of the leading editorial in
Tuesday mornings orcgonian--devot-
ed to showing that "therc is no hope
Of peace ard ea league from Cox"
Why does the Great Only waste 30
much space and cerebral incubation il
the league is not an issue. as it has
repeatedly by indircction declared?
Why mention the league If "the dem
oerats depend on booze, and booze
alone, to elect Cox?" But we are dis
posed to accept its tacit confession
that the league Is an issue. The re-
publican party has made it such,
Harding has made it such, by an at
tempt t5 substitute confused and
feeble plan in imitation Of The
Hague Tribunal-a powerless body
which did not suffice to keep the
world out of war nor the United
States out of war--the most awful,
stupendous and bloody conflict in all
history. The League Of Nations as
constituted at Versailles will suffice
to keep the world out of war, we are
confident, if joined by the United
States and if such changes as may
from time to time be required are
made through wise deliberation in it's
own council chamber and not by the
Old Guard senators and the Hardings
and the Coolidges--who will have no
league except one Of their own max
ing. The great experiment as launch
ed has been accepted without hesita-
tion or reserve by all of Uncle Sans
allies. 1t is at all events worth
the test that would be denied by the
republican party for reasons based
on partisan dislike Of Woodrow
Wilson.
