LEGISLATIVE ApPoRTIoNMENT.

One of the really important things the pres
ent legislature will be required to do is to re-
adjust the legislative districts of the state. This
will be necessary for two reasons First, con-
siderable SHIFT in populatonv has taken place
since the last apportonment was made, and
better adjustment is demanded for this reason.
Certain counties in the state have lost while
Others have gained in numbers, and if the legis-
lature is to remain on representative basis, this
fact must have full weight in determining the
distribution of its membership. No sectional con-
sderation should enter into this. Douglas
county is concerned because of an increase in
population OF more than II per cent. Cheyenne,
Scottsbluff and other counties are similarly in
terested These claims should get due attention
from the legislature.
One of the recently adopted constitutional
amendments provides for the election OF mem-
bers of the legislature from districts, and not
at large from counties like Douglas and Lam
caster, entitled to more than one representative
or senator This will entail delicate bit OF
work for the committee. The task should not
be so very difficult OF accomplishment, if only
the element of population and its proper division
into districts is>concerned. What is true of this
applies also to the rest of the state.
The temptation to play politics, though. is
always present, and in the dear old Gays 1t was
generally controlling factor. Happily, Nebraska
is not divided so as to justify resort to the
favorite practice of old-timers, that of gerry
mander, whereby monkey wrench. shoe-string
and other maliormed districts were created. Just
a little common sense and disposition to be
fair will solve this problem.

An Answer to the Protocols"


The British government has just appointed
Lord Reading, Jew, to be vicegerent OF India.
Here is a practical and what should be an effec-
tive reply to the Protocols" Whether these re-
markable documents were framed in England
or not, it is very certain that they are known
there, and that to some extent the anti-Semitic
propaganda has been carried on there. 1t is
significant therefore, that the government should
so elevate Jew. Lord Reading has won to the
high place of chancellor of the realm, and now
is offered the greatest distinction ever conferred
on one OF his religion by the empire. The act
can be interpreted only as meaning that England
does not fear the destruction prophesied in the
documents, now generally admitted to be
spurious. Nor does it admit that grave danger
lies in the supposed aversion of the Moham-
medans for one of the Hebrew faith. Lord Read
ing, should he go to India, win find serious
problem awaiting him, strife aroused by agi-
tators who have appealed to the deep prejudices
resting on race and religion, until certain sections
of the land fairly seeth with dissension. 1t is
possible that the selection of Lord Reading at
this time may prove perfection Of policy, as
exhibiting the tolerance of the British govern
ment and its disinclination to interfere with re-
ligion as such. From another viewpoint, it is
interesting to note the elevation of a Jew to
the vcegerency that was created by another,
Disraeli who presented Victoria with the diadem
of an empress to be added to the crown of

Cuba at Boiling Point.

Affairs in Cuba have reached such stage OF
disturbance that the president has felt con-
strained to dispatch General Crowder with
view to bringing something like order into the
life of the island Generally speaking, the trouble
arises from the fact that its financial system
suffers from the sugar spree Planters and
bankers were united in a grand effort to hold up
the world on the price of raw sugar, and sue
ceeded for time in doing so. The collapse has
caught them all, and ruin hovers close over
many. A moratorium, declared several weeks
ago. has not produced the expected results, and
the unwillingness of the government to act OIL
advice that would lead to restoration of .busl-
ness on new and safe basis has brought con-
ditions painfully close to another period Of inter-
venton.
Under the Platt policy the United States is
responsible for Cuba, and consequently it will
be the imperative duty of our government to
take over and straighten out the affairs OF the
islanders in event they do not succeed in getting
themselves out of the tangle into which they
have fallen through the fever OF speculation. This
is not an interference with their privilege OF
"self determination" but the act of big brother,
come in Kindness to assist the little fellow onto
his feet again after he has slipped. We have
done it before and very likely will have to DO
it many times again before the Cubans attain
their full stature.

Stories of By Elmo

Great Scouts Wsl.on
SOUTH SEA ISLANDER WHO
WAS CROOKS FAVORITE SCOUT
o. Western Newspaper Union.

Il would rather lose a third Of my
army than TO have Frank Gruard
killed" once declared Gen. Frank
Crook, and when this great Indian
fighter set such a high value on the
services Of scout IL meant that
Frank Gruard was without q peer.
Gruard was born in Tahiti in 1850,
the son OF an American trader and q
native woman. His father returned
TO this country when Frank was but
two years old and at the age of If
teen Frank ran away from home and
went 10 Montana.
Gruard became a mail carrier, q
dangerous job in a country full of hos
tile Sioux. They captured him finally
and were preparing to kill him when
a young brave pleaded for his life.
Calling their attention TO Franks
swarthy complexion he declared that
the mail carrier must be an Indian
who had been captured by the whites.
This Indian was the renowned Sit
ting Bull. For 10 months Gruard was
guarded closely and, realizing the use
lessness of attempting to escape, he
learned the Sioux tongue and entered
into the Indian life as one Of them.
He lived with the Indians six years
before he finally escaped.
One day Gruard was scouting for
an officer who attempted to guide his
command by use Of the compass. They
hnn l.,
Frank borrowed the officers compass,
smashed 1t against rock, and then,
taking the lead, he guided the soldiers
straight to the place they wished to
60.
Gruard's greatest exploit was his
part in the "Sibley Scout" In 1876
Lieut.. S. w. Sibley was sent out on a
scout to find the Indians. He found
them, and In a short time his little
command was surrounded by hun
dreds of Sioux and Cheyennes. After
a desperate fight In which the Chey-
enne chief, White Antelope. was
killed. the soldiers were forced to
abandon their horses and attempt es-
cape on foot.
Gruard's knowledge of the country
was all that saved them. He led
them over unknown mountain trails,
winding through the deep canyons and
around high peaks, until the Indians
were outdistanced. The next day he
guided them to a high point on a
mountain side and pointed down. Be
low them lay Crooks camp.
Frank Gruard was given a lifetime
position as government scout and
he performed valuable services In the
last uprising Of the Sioux. the Ghost
Dance war Of 1S9O-91. In 1894 Frank
saw his father for the first time since
he had run away from home. Gruard
died In st. Joseph Mo-. In 1918.
