STATE AID IS GIVEN
PROTECTION TO ANIMALS

Half of the AZ state legislatures in
session this year enacted legislation
relating to fur-bearing animals, the
general trend of which was to safe
guard these animals and insure prime
condition of peltries. The need for
such legislation is apparent in the
light of estimates by raw-fur buyers
that the decrease in the supply Of
peltries during the last 10 years has
been from 25 to 80 per cent.
SO states the Biological Survey, Uni. .
ted States Department of Agriculture,
in Farmers Bulletin 1898, sum-
mary of the trapping laws of the Uni
ed States, Canada, and Newfound-
land The bulletin which lists in
formation state by state regarding
open seasons, prohibited methods, Ii
,ense requirements, etc, may be OBJ
aimed free of charge upon application
to the department at Washington d.
t.. Summarizing the new legislation,
n part, the department says;
"The season on beavers was closed
FOR term of years in Indiana, Mich
gan, Nevada and South Dakota, and
on otter in Indiana and Nevada.
Muskrat were protected until 1924 in
North Dakota. Open seasons for talk
ing bearing animals were short
ened in Idaho, Indiana, Kansas,
Maine, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania
Rhode Island and Vermont; houses,

AMERICAN INDIAN NOT
DECADENT, ACCORDING
TO TOEX-COMMISSI0NER
Cato Sells Says Indian Popu-
lation Showed Increase Of
More Than 10000 in 1920.

p WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Q. n. S.
The American Indians are not de
Icadent race, but, on the contrary. ar
a growing people, with a promisini
future, according to the opinion o
Cato Sells. commissioner of Indian af
fairs during the Wilson admnistra
Ition
The prevailing belief that the Am
arican Indians are steadily declinin!
in number is described by the former
commissioner as u "fallacy." TIL,
misconcepton that the American In
iians are in imminent danger of en-
tinction is prabably based upon the
opinion that in colonial days the
native population was much greater
han at present. AS matter of fact
it has never been authenticity deter
mined just how many Indians were in
this country at the time of the coming
Of the white man, and the most gen
orally accepted figures are merely es-
Inmates.
"The Indian population at one time
was apparently diminishing; at an
other time 1t was fixed; but it has
never been decadent," Sells declares
Active Imagination and adventurous
spirit characterized the age i'm which
America was discovered. 1t was
lage of exaggeration, when information
grew out of fancy as we'll as fact.
The pioneers In this country. as
tbo,, laarnad nf tho vo OF avnanso Of
territory beyond their settlements on
the Atlantic coast, became imbucd
with the idea that Indians swauned in
countless hordes over the enormous
strAi ches of forest and plain. Natur-
lully. the legendary lore of an immense
Indian population during colonial days
became the general belief of succeed
ing generations and is the prevalent
opinion today But, according to Sells.
neither exact knowledge nor reason
able deduction sustains this widely-ex-
stent belief
The first federal census of the In
diau population, taken in 1850, was
largely an estimate and is supposed to
lave included many MeXicans and al
lens residing in Indian country at the
Time, i'm view of the fact that the cen
sus Of ten years later showed de-
'rease of approximately 10000 In
liaus.
The Indian population of the Unit
I'd states in 1910 was 304,950, and in
92H it was 3S6.SS7, an increase in the
eclde of 1887. The only year in
his period in which the Indian popu-
tti)n failed to record an increase was
,e year of the Spanish influenza epi-
emic. This, in the opinion of Sells
as conclusive evidence that the Amer
Irln Indians are far from the brink Of
otal extinction

the Indians were thrown into constant
contact with the new civilization. Det
rimental to both reds and whites for
many years, marked by terrible
slaughter and bloodshed. this contact
brought about Il slow but sure change
in the life of the red man. Slowly,
perhaps against his will, the Indian
inevitably absorbed the white mans
civilization, his bad and good charac-
'teristims, until he became an estab-
lshed part in the everyday life of the
nation.

Lecture Course Abandoned,

Jewell Record: At the regular meet
ing of the Community club Monday
night of this week, it was voted that
the club will not give financial back
ing to lyceum course for next win
ter. The courses in the past winters
have been failing to pay out. and the
club members have decided not to at.
tempt to put on a course here if peo.
pie do not want one.
A proposition was offered by Presi-
dent Okdale of the college to the. eff
feet that the club cooperate with the
college in putting on course. each
assuming half of the responsibility
and he submitted 4 four number course
for the consideration Of the club. The
members, however, did not care to
give any guarantee whatever for a
course next winter. The only present
prospect OF lyceum course next win
ten lies III the possibility that some
lyceum bureau might care to put on
a course here on their own RESPONSE
bility. or that the college or some other
organization outside of the community
club might care to take on the propO-
sition.

In good many instances the farm

to get rid of lot Of stone that lies

in God, in himself and in everybody

other an optimist One saw no good in
anything and squandered his chance In

was beautiful and he invested his life

other a success, largely brought abOu,

LUCKY MARSHAL ! ! ! J I !
I. IS kN0WNHERE
Jack Draper, who Gets $685..
600 Reward for Cap
turing Bandit, Friend
Gus Zimmerlin.
IN HEYWORTH, ILL.
Is About 20 and has Been
Town Marshal for
Many Years.

! Jack Draper, town marshal at Hey.
worth, Illinois, who Saturday arrested
William Dalton, who robbed the North.
ern Trust Company, of Chicago, of
1922, 600 in Liberty Bonds, is an oldtime
friend of Gus Zimmerlin, J. w. Yanney
and Mrs. s. A. Christensen of this city.
Draper, by making this lucky arrest,
will get the $4,000 reward offered for
the capture of young Dalton. The
Zimmerlin and Yanney families former
~ lived in Heyworth and Draper, who
was always a close friend, has been in
the homes many times. Local friends
are all glad to know their old friend
will get the big reward offered. Draper
is typical small town marshal.
Marshal Long Tine.
In fact Draper, who is around 20
years of age, SO Mr.. Zimmerlin says,
has been marshal at Heyworth for so
many years that the Oldest inhabitant
can hardly remember when he did not
wear the star of authority. His capture
OF the young Chicago bandit, who is
but II years of age, was dramatic, in
deed. Dalton was playing pool in a
Heyworth billiard hall with Jack Hen
messy, village cue shark. Draper had
been in the poolroom some time. A
small travelling bag setting beside the
pool table, together with the players re-
semblance to newspaper photographs of
the fugitive, challenged his attention.
Bonds Scattered Over Floor.
Draper finally went over and opened
the bag. The bonds that had made it
bulge popped out and scattered on the
floor. Dalton, apparently little perturb-
ed, regarded them whimsically, and
then turned to the town marshal.
well, l guess you got me-" he said.
Then he sauntcrcd over and placed
his cue in 4 rack
What next he asked Marshal
Draper.
THAT bird is one of the coolest custo-
mers ever encountered" said the mar
shall. "He never blinked an eye. One
would have thought that 1 merely
called his attention to the fact he had
forgotten to return box Of matches
he had borrowed for light or some
thing like that"
Draper took his prisoner to the home
of citizen, then notified the Chicago
police Of his catch.
