cToRlES or
GREAT INDIANS
CHIEF RAIN-IN-THE.FACE GOT
UNDESERvED FAME
Uy Elmo Soon Dofsom

MYTH the possible exception of
w Sitting Bull and Curley, Clusters
Crow scout, more misinformation has
been written about Rain-In-The-Face
(Itiomagaju) chief Of the Hunkpapas
than any other Indian who ever lived.
When he died September IL, 1906, the
word was flashed all over the country
that "the Indian who killed General
Custer is dead"
During the Stanley expedition up
the Yellowstone In 1873, Rain-In-T The
Face murdered two civilians who had
strayed from Clusters command, a
crime for which he was arrested by
Capt. Tom Custer year later and
imprisoned at Fort Abraham Lincoln,
N. d. He escaped and after joining
the hostiles under Sitting Bull he II
said to. have sent word back to the
fort that he would have his revenge
on the whole Custer family and on
Captain Tom in particular.
Out of this threat grew the story
that Rain-In-The-Face after the battle
of Little Big Horn had cut out Tom
Clusters heart and eaten a piece of 1t.
Mrs. Custer in her book "Boots and
Saddles" makes such an assertion, but
Rain-In-The-Face in telling his life
story to DR.. Charles A. Eastman, the
noted Sioux writer, denied any such
deed and 1t Is reasonable to believe
that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell
a member Of his own race the truth.
More than that, DIR. Porter and Gen.
eral Benteen who found Tom Gus
ter's body after the battle, have stated
positively that he was not mutilated
in this way.
In Longfellow's poem 1.-THE Revenge
Of Rain-In-The-Face." he repeats the
story, although he makes Gen. George
Custer the victim Of the atrocity in
stead of Tom Custer. This may be the
origin of the yarn that Rain-In-The-
Face was the slayer of Custer.
The circumstances connected with
his killing the two civilians from Gus.
ter's command showed that he was a
tack on Fort Totten, N. D., in 1885
with two companions, an act of sheer
bravado growing out Of a dare, and
his endurance Of the worst tortures of
the Sun Dance without q murmur
proved that he was q man utterly in
different to pain, danger or death.
After the Sioux wars were over
Rain-InThe-Face settled on the Stand.
ing Rock reservation and in 1885 ap.
piled for admission to the Hampton
school, an effort which inspired q
second poem labout him-this time
from the pen of another great Ameri.
can poet, John g. Whittier. On the
reservation Rain inIn-The-Face became
an Indian policeman.

ABOUT THE NEWSPAPER

Speaking Of what a newspaper does
in a community the late United
States Senator Davis, of Illinois,
made an address in which he said:
Every year each local paper gives
from $500 to 200 in free lines to
the city or town in which it is To-
Gated, praising, and for lodges,
churches, schools, societies, etc. The
editor in proportion to his means,
does more for the town than any 9TH
er man in it, and he ought to be sup
ported, not because you like or dis
like him, but because local paper is
one of the towns best features. To-
day the local papers are doing more
for less pay than anything on earth,
and its fact many cases Of free no.

CIRCUS u ES
MODERN METHODS

No longer do the working crew of
the circus have to tug and pull at
he big top to roll it up for shipping
TO the next town, at least not on
he majestic Hagenbeck-Wallace
Circus which will appear in Benn-
ettsville Wednesday, October IL,
This season the circus has this
labor performed by a machine and a
spool" which saves much time and
work The big tent is dropped to
he ground after the final perform
lnce and the workmen place the
yarious flaps and ends in place. The
spool is then attached to one side
Of the tent and rolls the big top onto
It, with the result that much time
and labor is saved.
This is not the only labo- saving
device that the Hagenbeck-Wallace
Circus carries. No longer do stakes
have to be driven by man-power.
Stake driving machines are now car
lied and there is another machine
which pulls them up, when ready for
he tearing down of the tent.
The circus is carried on three
pecial trains and much of the para
ohernalia being placed on 70-foot
steel flats. There are more than
900 men, women and ANNALS carri-
ed on these trains, besides the many
billpOsters, programme, banncrmcn,
mailers, press agents and othc's who
'ravcl on the advance cars.
Another nteresIrg fact pertaining
to the inner working of the circus is
chat between 500 and 600 pounds of
beef are needed each day to feed the
animals. This great amount is
separate from the many pounds
necessary in preparing the meals of
the performance and working crew.

SWEET POTATO MARKET
SHOULD BE ENLARGED

There are undoubtedly tremendous
possibilities in sweet potato in
dustry in the South. The people of
America as a whole are not using
more than one-tenth of the sweet
potatoes they should use, and would
use if they fully undersood how de-
licious, wholesome, and economical a
food the sweet potato is. But if this
development is to be realized, the
farmers of the South must make plans
for advertising and developing the
Northern market instead of merely
organizing marketing associations to
supply the demand that already ex-
lists.
There ought to be a federation
of sweet potato curing and market
ing associations and large fund
raised for advertising sweet potatoes
to Northern customers, just as the
growers of raisins, oranges, and
prunes have advertised and developed
the market for their products. Ii
southern sweet potato growers are
content to organize simply to supply
the present national demand, they
will soon be wrestling with an un-
marketable overproduction. But if
they will set out in a really effective
way to teach the Northern market the
many and varied uses of the sweet
potato, just as the raisin growers
have taught the use of raisins, then
we have only touched the hem of
he garment" of sweet potato posi-
oiiities.-The Progressive Farmer.

THE TARIFF BILL

In an analysis of the tariff bill that
covered that measure as it passed
Congress, Senator F. NJ. Simmons, of
North Carolina, showed its injustice
and unfairness in speech that oc-
cupied nearly thirty pages of the
Congressional Record. In concluding
..e said of the tariff:
''It is bill in the interest of prof
steering. 1t is bill in the interest
of the trusts and the monopolies. 1t
is bill which especially favors the
convicted trust. 1t is bill which
will add additional millionaires in
this country 1t is bill which will
add enormously to the trusts and the
combinations which already prey and
fatten upon the people. 1t is bill
which will hold down the laborer and
the consumer in this country with a
grip of iron, and make them, more
than they are to-day, the galley slaves
of the protected industries of the
United States, laboring, toiling, pro
ducing, and seeing the fruits and the
usufruct of their toll and their lfc's
blood garnered by a few men who
have made fortunes upon fortunes.
and added millions upon millions,
their wealth rises and tours like Pc
lion on Ossa piled, representing the
fruits of the toll of millions Of men
who have been ignored in the fran
ing of this bill.
1T ought to have been the
peoples bill, Mr.. President, but ,hc
protiteers and monopolies have con
trolled the writing Of its schedule.
1t means burdens, it means sweat, it
means blood to the American con
sumer. 1t means wealth, it means
fortune to the already rich and DOW
erful"
The Chesterfield advertiser. [volume] (Chesterfield C.H., S.C.) 1884-1978, 1922-10-05

1t ends as the most reactionary con-
gress since the time Of Aldrich and the
most subservient to executive dicta-
tion since the days of Roosevelt. It
has proven itself to be spineless, lead
erless, without courage, program or
purpose. 1t adjourns in blaze Of
returning to their respective con-
stituents with their morale broken,
their lines divided and their hopes
dissipated. A sad reception awaits
you-an insurmountable task of ex-
planation confronts YOU"

DEATH OF SENATOR
THOMAS E. WATSON

The sudden and unexpected death
of Senator Watson, of Georgia, was
a shock to his friends and to the
people everywhere, for he was uni
versally known. Like all strong,
aggressive characters, the deceased
senator had his enemies and his
friends, the latter "bound to him as
with hoops of steel"
1t was a stormy life that the great
populist led He had, through his
paper, on the stump, and in the
United States Senate enunciated his
views on public questions without
fear. When he went to the Senate
he did not hesitate to take issue with
the ablest men in that august and
famous body.
He had his faults-he was human
But at the grave his faults are buried.
The following extract from an edi-
torial in The Atlanta Constitution
expresses the sentiments Of this pa
per:
Senator Watsons career Was in
many respects one of the most re-
markable in the history of this State.
''He was a man of unusual magne-
tism, of outstanding ability, and he
possessed rare genius for leadership.
"No man who has figured in the
public affairs of Georgia, certainly
within the last quarter of a century,
ever enjoyed such a devoted personal
following as that which Snator Wat
son maintained throughout the vicis-
STUDIES of his political career, and Il
was composed of men and women
whose confidence he held by the sheer
force of his remarkable personality.
His intellect was not always di-
rected along constructive lines, but
regardless of where he went, the rank
and file of his following invariably
went with him, and were always to be
found standing in solid formation and
ready to obey his command"

GLARING HEADLIGHTS

Death by the glaring automobile
headlight is becoming more and more
common in South Carolina and else
where. Ruin to the automobile itself
IS an ordinary, every day affair, re-
sulting from the frequent collisions
caused by the, binding of the drivers
eyes when meeting another car. Gross
carelessness and thoughtlessness is at
the bottom of it. Surely no person
of sane mind, however heartless he
might be, would Intentionally blind
the eyes of another car driver whom
ne chanced to meet. But it is done
every day of the year, thousands and
thousands of times, in thousands and
thousands of places. Laws of strin-
gent character have been enacted to
control the dangerous practice. They
have been given little publicity and
nave become of almost unconscious
and universal knowledge. Arrests and
convictions of offenders are rare.
Perhaps this is because it is so diff
cult to catch them. While the thing is
so serious that any thing like fun is
all out of place in discussing it, we
would suggest that the law be amend
ed to permit tie sufferer to smash the
'blinders" with brick or anything
else he may have at hand. with i'm
punity to his pocket book or person.

WILL SORGHUM
POISON LIvESTOcKr

A reader asks: "Will orange cane
or sorghum kill or injure horses or
cattle in any way?"
Under certain conditions the sor-
ghums develop a deadly poison
(prussic acid) in sufficient quani-
ties to kill livestock that eat even a
small quantity of the plants. 1t is also
claimed that Sudan and Johnson
grass, which are non-saccharine (not
sweet) sorghums, also sometimes de-
velop this poison, but it is probably
safe to state that the sweet sorghms
more frequently develop the poison
than do the non-saccharine sorghums,
although it is comparatively rare that
any of them poison livestock.
The poison seems more likely to
develop in the second growth, es-
pecially if this second growth is stun.
ted by dry weather or other causes.
In fact, a stunted growth, or injury
of the growth from any cause seems
to favor the development of the poi
son. 1t is rare, if it ever occurs, that
there is any poison in sorghum when
1T makes free, or rapid, or natural
growth.
There is no record, so far as we
can find, of sorghum made into hay
or silage injuring livestock in this
| way.
1t is so rare that poison develops
in sorghums that it is doubtful if this
should lessen the growth or use of
this excellent forage crop for the
South. But when the growth is stunt
ed and especially when the second
growth which comes on after it has
been cut once is stunted in any way
care should be exercised in grazing
such stunted growth while it is green.
1t should not be grazed under such
conditions unless first tried out with
an animal of little value. Possibly
the best plan is not to pasture stun
ted growth of sorghum, but to wait
until it starts growing freely again
or to make it into hay.-The Progress
sive Farmer.
