The late Sir Wifred Laurier's pre-
diction, 1.-THE Nineteenth Century was
that OF the United States, the TWEEN
tieth belongs to Canada" is belied by
recently completed returns OF Canada s
census. In 1911 the population Of
Canada was 7,206,644 The total for
1921 amounts to s,757954 10 the iu-
tervening decade the gain is ,55l, $40
an increase of approximately 20 per
cent.
Compared with countries Of the old
world, this gain is heavy. Compared
With expectations of Canadians and
well-wlshers OF Canada, the increase
is disappointing. In the forty years
from 1870 to 1911, Canada's population
doubled. Ia the last ten years the in.
crease has been small Notable gains
are recorded only in provinces west Of
the great lakes Prince Edward Island
and the Yukon actually lost popula-
tion.
To increase population Canada is
now devising vast plans of immigra-
ton. Old world peoples, especially
those OF British extraction, are being
invited to our northern neighbor
Canadian railways are cooperating to
insure this immigration.

called "waste places" of the plane
there are few that are more inviting
than Canada. In climate and soil may
be found sources Of prosperity and
happiness by immigrants. A sound
government responding to the needs
and the wishes Of the people, provides
security for person and property.

INDIAN LASHING RECALLS
LAW or CHOCTAW TRIBE
Superintendent of Five Tribes
Tells Of Whipping Posts on
Oklahoma Reservation.

A recent whipping administered at
Antlers. Okla, the home town of Maj.
Victor NJ. Locke, Jr., superintendent of
the five civilized tribes and one of the
leading members of the Choctaw tribe,
served to recall to the Indian superin-
tendent's mind a custom that many
years ago was pursued by the Choc-
taws to punish their members when
they were found doing evil.
This punishment consisted of pub
lie thrashing for the offender and SUI
perintendent Locke well remembers
the last legal punishment of this kind
administered by the Choctaws. 1t took
place In 1899 at Alikachi, and the vic
tim was full-blood who had been con-
yicted in the tribal courts of stealing
a "roan setting hen"
The chicken in question was domi-
nique hen. There was no word In the
Choctaw language for dominique, so
the indictment was worded to read
"roan" hen instead, that being the
nearest accurate description that
could be supplied.
The Indian was given 80 lashes on
the bare back with hickory switches.
Superintendent Locke says that up
to 1900 the Choctaw tribe kept three
whipping posts to control offenders.
One was located at Alikachi, another
on the forks Of Boggy creek and a
third three miles south of Wilburton.
Although the Choctaws had jails, they
we're seldom used, as trials moved so
swiftly and sentences were so quickly
imposed that the jails were of little
use.
Under the old Choctaw law person
convicted for horse stealing was given
100 lashes for the first offense. If the
offense was repeated and the defend
ant convicted, he was shot to death, as
the Choctaws never resorted to hang
ing.
In the Cherokee nation capital pun
ishment was executed by hanging.

dres. Undoubtedly the quality OF
craftsmanship ought to be improved If
senators and representatives could
always be depended upon to act upon
their own consclences and judgment
with no thought OF how their votes
would affect their chances for re.elec.
ton. But there are disadvantages,
too. Occasionally not too often-a SEN
ator or representative is elected whose
removal from the Office even at the
termination OF six or ten year term
would be q public loss. And, on the
other hand, wouldn't it be tough on
the country to elect a bunch OF "lem-

undo the mistake at the ballot box?

Krassin, the accredited representa-
tive Of Russian Bolsheyism In London,
cries out for farming implements and
machinery from foreign countries for
the restoration Of agriculture, and
says;
Russia is herself too exhausted to
supply these needs. Our industries

our fuel Industries, whose state is SO
bad that neither railways nor factories

DRY, could work full time. Food con.

II Is very difficult TO get labor. IL is
clear, therefore, that Russia herself at
TINS moment cannot supply The needs
OF agriculture. The position, how
ever, offers very good field for for
eign industry, which can deliver not
only agricultural machinery but also
the other materials, such as housing,
which the peasants require.
The question OF the economic re-
storation OF Russia should, In our
opinion be decided only after the for

ONE DAY ONLY
They Come Many Miles to See Him

DR.. Doran is a regular graduate in
medicine and surgery and is licensed by
the State of Wisconsin. He visits pro-
fessionally the more important towns
and cities, and offers to all who call on
this trip consultation and examination
free, except the expense of treatment
when desired.
According to his method of coming to
your nearest city to see patients he
gives all sick people an opportunity to
obtain the best that medical science can
offer right at home. He does not oper-
ate for chronic appendicitis, gall stones,
ulcers of stomach, tonsils or adenoids.
He has to his credit many wonderful
results in disease of the stomach, liver,
bowels, blood, skin, nerves. heart, kid
ney, bladder, bedwetting, catarrh, leg
ulcers and rectal ailments.
If you have been ailing for any length
of time and do not get any better, do
not fail to call, as improper measures
rather than disease are very often the
cause of your long standing trouble.
Remember above date, that examina-
ton on this trip will be free and that
his treatment is different.
Married ladies must come with their
husbands, and children with their par
ents.

Mr.. Harding has now been President
q year and our Republican friends are
hard put TO it to point with pride to
his achievements. Neither the Prest-
dent nor the Republican majority in
both branches Of Congress has made q

The record OF constructive legisla-

cents bushel and being burned on the
farms OF the west because IL was cheap

been restored, unless the normal con-

The Washington Conference is the
only bright spot in the Harding ad-

considerably dimmed by certain hard
facts. 1t was practically forced on Mr..
Harding by Senator Borab, and it's &C.
complshmeuts may now be nullided by
the same bunch of senators with whom
Mr.. Harding trained in opposition to
the League OF Nations.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
Mr.. Harding's first year as President
has been disappointment, not only to
his party but to the country at large,
and that the disappointment and lack
OF confidence will be manifested In the
Congressional elections next fall
There should be thorough Democra-
tic organization in every precinct in
the country for the election next fall,
