"HINkY DINk'S" SWAN SONG

The tides of Chicago politics, full favored as its Packingtown, will cease to roar through the "Hang-Out for the Boys" on and after May 1. For forty gay and gallus years "Hinky Dink's" place around and about Clark and Jackson has been a landmark. It has worn the air of tradition. Re formers have glared with goggle-eyed menace upon it. Chicago grew to have a sort of imrertinent pride in it. "Hinky Dink's" used to divide at tention with the stocllyards and the Masonic Temple. You sympathized with yourself if you Saw Chicago" without viewing the "hang-out' of Aldeman "Hinky Dink" Kenna.
 High rents got "Hinky Dink"-high rents and the famous act fathered by one Volstead, of Minnesota. The Chicagoese is an excellent judge of distance, and 'near-beers" failed to keep the old place going. Something picturesque departs from the days and doings of Chicago, "Hinkys Dink" may start cigar store, if he lists and intends, but-a swining cigar lighter and an array of lithograp phed boxes will hardly take the place of the sawdust and the brass rail, the bungstarter and the flip-flipping doors.
 Chicago will never be quite the same place again.

Mexico to such an understanding as for 150 years has existed between Canada and this country would be an achievement of higher importance to mankind than would be the erection of any league of foreign nations.
 The president of Mexico, for the first time in ten years, with courage and determination, is bringing order out of chaos in that land of beauty and turmoil He is proving himself to be a big man. He desires an understanding. He has vision. Commenting on Presi- dent Harding's inaugural address, President Obregon said: "It is con- ceived in splendid spirit for the people of the world highly instruc- tive and highly moral"
 The Mexican executive is some thing more than the rough, popular soldier. He is a practical business man who seems to be able to grasp the big problems of statescraft with
  easy comprehension. He promises that, if his present government keeps within the law" Mexico has seen it's last revolution. His chief problem is agrarian and his proposed reforms contemplate the restoration of posperity and contentment at home, and in this way command the respect and confidence of the world.
 This administration should meet President Obregon more than half way. It has not now to deal with the representative of banditry and outlawry, or the special interests of princely feudalism, but with government apparently composed of progressive men desirous of assisting their country to a proper position among the civilized nations of the earth.

UNCLE SAM AND MEXICO

No achievement of the present ad- ministration could serve so to ad- vance the material and social inter- ests and welfare of the western hemi- sphere and indirectly, of the world, as would the accomplishment of a complete understanding with Mexico. These two republics, neighbors, with inconceiVable resources, with poten- tial possibilities of unlimited develop ment, drawing to themselves the in- terrelated support of all other Amer ican republics, could assure not only material prosperity, but actual peace throughout the earth.N This is the opp" eity for American statesman

oREGoNlAN CoRRECTS WICKER
 SHAM STORY

During the week ended March 26 the Washington correspondent of the Port mad Oregonian sent a dispatch to his paper, and the Oregonian printed it, which said Secretary of the Interior Fall had recommended to the president the appointment of former Delegate Alaska Forthwith the Seattle Dispatch and other Wickite papers and support CTS assumed that the governorship question was settled. A Seattle news service wired the glad news to AIaske, and it was printed in variCus papers using that service.
 On March 28 the Empire printed an Associated Press dispatch received late the previous Saturday, March 26, after that days paper had been issued, saying that Secretary Fall had rec commended no one for appointment to the governoTshjp of Alaska. Some of the Wickites intimateed that the Elm pire faked or changed the tenor of this dispatch Of course the Empire paid no attention to these insinuatiOns. The original dispatch has been subject to inspection.
 However, not only did the Associa- ted Press deny that Secertary Fall had made any recommendations, but copies of the Portland OregCnian recieved in the mail show that the Washington correspondent of that paper contra dicted his previous report Of Wicker sham recommendation the same day the Associated Press made it's an nouncement ~ In the Washington correspondence of the Portland Or egonian, issued Sunday, March 27, dat ed the day before, March 26, appears the following:
 Secretary of the Interior Fall, who has been confined to his home suffer- ing from a severe attack of sciatica, venturded to the telephone today long enough to deny that he had recon mended James Wickersham, formerly Alaska's delegate in congress, to be governor of Alaska. He said he had made no recommendation but hoped that early next week he might be able to call on the president and explain the importance of filling the Alaska governorship. The qualifications of all candidates would be examined dur ing this visit to the White House, he said"
 The Portland Oregonian correspon- dent goes further than the Associated Press did. The Oregonian man direct 1y quoted Secetory Fall as denying that he had made a recommendation However, those familiar with Associat- ed Press methods did not require the direct quotation They know that when tho Associated Press says that any one had done or had not done some thing it got it's information from the man most concerned, and that it knew exactly what it was saying and what it meant
 It is significant that the Seattle Dispatch and the other "ickte papers have not printed the fact that the Oregonian retracted it's state. ment about Secretary Falls recon mendation-Juneau Empire.

MARVELS OF SURGERY

The miracles of modern surgery which
have developed since the World war have
made it possible to transplant into a hu
man being the nerves of an animal and
has been shattered by shots.
There are wards in the big military
hospital at Fort Sheridan filled with men
who had nerves cut in half by bullets and
fragments of shell and as result were
paralyzed. Sometimes the severed ends
of these nerves could be sewed together,
but in other cases a considerable. length
of nerve would be carried away so that
a splice had to be put in.
The nerve to be grated does not have
to be used Immediately, but can be kept
indefinitely in cold storage or chemicals
until it is needed. There have developed
experimental proofs where nerves have
been taken from the dead, preserved for
short period and grated to the injured
part of living persons.
In ward 50 is Joseph Higgins. A shell
carried away the muscles and nerves of
the upper part of his left arm. The
wound healed, but his arm was paralyzed.
Surgeons decided to transplant muscles
from his chest. He is now regaining the
use of his arm.
Private Joseph Fleischman, One Hun
dred and Forty-eighth infantry, who halls
from Amigo, Wis, was hit by machine
gun bullet which cut nerve and re-
suited in the loss of control of his right
leg. He was sent to the British expedi-
tionary hospital and from there to Fort
Sheridan. The leg was operated on,
nerves from rabbit grated in, and now,
six months later, he is again feeling SEN
sation in the part of the leg which was
dead.-Ex

could pump them from the magazine
straight down the monsters red-hot throat,
and he continued to come on as if | had
not touched him. I kept the last shot
then felt his hot breath like blast on
my face, and let him have it straight down
the throat again"
"He -stopped-quivered right
over me-toppled from the knees-and fell
like a landslide, pushed forward as he
tumbled by the weight behind, and held
from rolling sidewise by the living tide
on either flank. | tried to spring back,
but his falling trunk struck me to the
earth. On either side of me a tusk drove
into the ground, and l lay still between
them, as safe as if in bed for so many
minutes that it seemed all the universe
was elephants"
On another OCCASION a few hundred
yards away from the postoffice at Nairobi,
on a road passing between two small
hillocks, Mr.. Mundy happened to glance
up, to see lion on one hill and his mate
on the other Staring at me with sort of
scandalized interest" He was unarmed,

ing department on June 80, 1921, being
$1O,3S+.57.
The business done during the past fiscal
year, July 1, 1920, to June 80, 1921, can
best be told in figures. During the twelve
months 3,69O,S52 pieces of ruling and
printing were turned cut at cost to the
institution of $4,76O.97. Using a low
estimate, this work, had it been done in an
outside commercial shop, would have cost
over $4,000. Work for other State in
stitutions to the value of $S41.93, has also
been turned out.
All the men working in this department
are paid a daily wage, but to the en-
ploying printer in commercial shop these
figures will assume far more significance
when we state that we only figure twelve
cents an hour against all classes of work,
where they must figure from sixty cents
to $3.50 an hour for the same work.
And in closing we wish to remark that
the work done will compare favorably
with any outside work and this statement
includes the bookbinding end and the three
and four-color press work.

TREASURE OF TIPPOO TIB

This is story of a new and true
treasure in the existence of which the
British government believes so strongly
that it has offered 10 per cent of the cash
value to the finder. Now that the war is
over there is nothing to hinder an ad-
venturer from seeking the ivory treasure
of Tippoo Tib-1 900, 100000 pounds of
ivory, $25,OOO,0OO, and now probably three
times as valuable. In the opinion of Tai
but Mundy, novelist and former DISTRICT
commissioner in British East Africa, this
treasure now lies hidden in the caves of
the extinct African volcano, Mount Elgon
"All you have to do to get it," Mr..
Mundy says, "is to travel through coun-
try where lions may ambush you, herds
of infuriated elephants charge you, tsetse

you and your overturned canoes, Nasal

TALKING ABOUT OURSELVES

The printing department at this insti-
tuition has had wonderful growth in the
last few years and is now the largest
state-owned print shop in Minnesota.
Back in 1887 small plant, consisting of
one job press and few fonts of type,
was being operated by inmate printers.
The cost of this first outfit was about
$4,000. In April, 1913, additional equip
ment to the value of $2,237.47 was bought,
including a pony cylinder press, ruling
machine, Portland punching machine, per-
forating machine, furniture, new type,
etc. This addition made the printing de-
partment a modern shop.
The manufacturing department of the
prison continued to grow and the demand
for printing so increased that the model
shop of 1913 found it difficult to keep up
with orders, so during the 1880 session
of the State legislature an appropriation
of $6,000.00 was granted the Board of
Control to further equip the printing de-
partment. With this money was purchased
a typesetting machine, thirty-two inch
power paper cutter, Miller saw trimmer,
new wire stitching machine, modern
type cabinet and needed furniture and sup
plies. The invoiced value of the print
