INDIANS HAD ELABORATE
NEW YEAR CELEBRATION

Mayetta, Kan, Jan. 27.-The
Fottowatomie Indians recently finish
ed two days dance and feast in
honor Of the New Year. 1t was
celebration which every Indian on
the reservation, mile from here,
attended, and many white guests
were present, for the Pottowatomie
feasts are famous for their quality
and excellence. Barbecued beef is
one of the favorite Dishes.
The reservation is twenty-five
miles from Topeka, the capital of
Kansas, and contains about eleven
square miles of land. Approximately
five hundred Indians are living
there, and the land is farmed. The
white mans civilization has flowed
around the little reservation and
left it, a relic of pioneer days in
Kansas. Much of the white mans
civilization mas, of course, been alb
sorbed by the Pottawatomies; they
all speak English and motor cars
are commonplace among the red
men.
81 can remember" Mat Septa, a
young Pottawatonie, said, "when
the dancers and medicine men used
to prophesy at our dances and how
the white man would one day ride
in carriages without horses, and fly
through the air like birds. We used
to think that was very wonderful,
but we have seen it happen. Our
dancers also told of how there would
be a great war among the white
men, in which they would cross the
sea to kill one another. That was the
European war. I was in France six
teen months myself and with the
Eighty-ninth division. A great ex-
perience. You know, what I liked
about the army, you always had
friends and were not lonesome. But
l was glad to come home.
"Our people live softer than they
used to. When / was little baby,
often they used to>take US down to
the bank of the creek winter morn
ings, and break the ice and make US
jump in. That was to make US hard
and strong. They don't do that any
more with our boys.
"Our prophets tell of.another great
war that will come among the white
men land after that, they say, there
will be no more war. They tell US
that the white mans heart will be
changed then, and that much of the
land that once belonged to the In
dian will be given back to him. I
do not know. 1t is not good for my
people to have too much money in
their pockets, for they spend it
swiftly"
The Pottawatomies are proud of
the fact that Charles Curtis, senior
United States senator from Kansas;
is of Pottawatomic ancestry, and
still count him a member of their
tribe, although they do not often see
him on the reservation.
ellis time is taken up in the city
of the Great White Father" the
Pottawatomies explain, "but his
heart is friendly toward his people" "

rwo ELECTION CASES

IA =. 6tfkCC 1aCClOn8l 01VAd100, Ine
lieutenant governor casting the decid-
ing vote, the senate of North Dakota
has declared that Gust Wog was duly
elected senator for the seth district
at the November election. In a rul-
ing obviously fair, the presiding Of
ficer had decided that Mr.. Woe was
.aebarred from voting on. he own case.
That left the vote>a tie, "a Nonparti-
sans voting for Wog, and "a INDIE
,pendents for List, the contestant.
On the assumption that the deci-
sion in this case is right and just,
the decision in the Sargent county
case two years ago was unfair and
unjust. There is no way in which
the two can be rcconciled on the basis
.of justice. If justice was achieved
in this case rank injustice was per-
.Detrated by the league majority in
the house in 1919.
In the Sargent. county case Riba
had a majority Of the votes cast. 1t
was not charged that any of the votes
were illegally cast. 1t was not
charged hat there were any mac
t%curactes in the count. It was not
charged that the vote Of any person
had been improperly influenced DE-
that there were even technical ir-
Irregularities in the casting Of any Of
the votes. It was not charged that
n fraud of any kind had BEEN COM
luitted Or attempted by n one. The
election board in one precinct. acting
Of health, had excluded the public
from tho DON while the ballots were
being counted, and, With the door
locked. had made a canvass which
everyone admitted was accurate. That
was the whole ase And on those
facts, clearly established and undis-
putei. vote Of an entire precinct
was Ii out, Riba, an 1ndepend-
ent, %-. lnseated, and Webber, a
s,Nonpartisan, who had received a mi
nority of the votes legally cast and
correctly counted, was seated. That
act was performed by the solid vote
of the Nonpartisan league member
ship of the house.
In the present case so per tent Of
sthe votes in three precincts were cast
lin q clearly contrary to law.
THE Illegally attended. not the count
ing, but the casting Of the votes. The
cancellation Of the votes Of those pre-
,cincts would have seated the Inde-
pendent candidate, who had received
& substantial majority of the legally
icast votes. But the same political
element which, as represented in the
house two years ago, stuck for the
minute observance of the extreme let
ter of the law, now, as represented
lin the senate, Wav aside all formal
titles, and ratifies action which was not
,only illegal, but which actually con-
sstituted real abuse which affected the
result of the election.
The explanation is very simple. Two
years ago the Nonpartisans did not
feel too secure in their control Of the
house. They wished to strengthen
their position. They needed all the
votes they could get. Therefore they
seated Weber. This year their con-
atrol OF the senate hangs on one vote.
Therefore they seated Wog. That is
stthe whole case. Right and wrong cut
mo figure whatever.

THRIFT

Quite appropriately, because Benja-
min Franklin was n Of the great
apostles Of thrift, the week in which
the anniversary of. his birth occurs
has been designated as Thrift week.
During this week a special effort ID
being made to interest the people of
the United States is the meaning
and practice OF thrift.
Thrift is often confused with the
saving of money. It includes that,
but it includes much more. Money
may be saved w~astefully. 1t may be
saved at the cost Of something much
0 valuable. Money saved is not
always well sayed. And, in fact, the
job is usually only half done when the
money is saved, no matter how.
The principles Of thrift are best ex-
emplified in wise saving and wise in
vestmAnt. Money that is lot at work
represents q waste. The Individual il
