White Earth Young
Man is Victim Of
North Dakota Bandits,

News reached this village last
week that John Sullivan, mem.
Der Of this reservation and a resi-
dent of this village, had been shot
by bold-up men at Devils Lake,
North Dakota, and ROBBED Of bis
summers earnings, amounting to
$13O. Sullivan was shot under
the left arm, the bullet barely
missing his heart, and is now in q
hospital at Devils Lake with but
slight chance of recovery. Par,
ticulars regarding the shooting and
robbery are hard to obtain, but
from others who were working
with him in the, Dakota harvest
fields it is learned that after they
had finished working at the place
where they were altogether Sulli-
van, who had accumulated more
than $13O by hard werk during
the summer, left in an automobile
owned by two young men who
claimed Minnesota as their home,
and the three, of them started
north with the intention of looking
for more work in the harvest
fields along the Canadian border.
That was the last heard from him
Until he was found short distence
from Devils Lake badly wounded
and robbed Of his earnings. 1t
has been reported that the two
young men with whom Sullivan
started north in the auto were
later seen here and claimed tc
reside 80 miles east of Detroit,

Hiawatha's Children : Il
Garner Wild Rice as
Fathers Before Them,

Mahnomin, the wild rice of the
north, the Indians grain for win
ter consumption, is ripe. Word
has passed that the crop this year
is not a large one. Gathering the
rice must proceed rapidly FOR a
hungry horde of wild ducks have
descended upon the rice fields.
The crop is gathered today as in
the days of Hiawatha and of
Minnehaha. Canoes are piIoted
through miles of rice beds. The
rice is either shipped off on the
stem, or pulled from the water.
Once in the canoe, it, is dislodged
from the stem by beating with a
paddle. Thus a canoe will. be
loaded in a day. The hulling is
done by heating the rice in its
she'll and while it is yet hot, it is
trodden by moccasined feet.
Wild rice is for sale at principa
grocery stores in the north. The
rice is bought at trading posts
direct from the Indians, or from
traders who get it from' the In
dams. The work of gathering thu
rice is so tedious that few whit
people attempt it.

BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

HAVING made their losing fight
against the Pacific fOur-power
pact, the ObstreperOus minority in the
senate ceased from troubling last
week, and fell into line-all but Sen
atOr France of Maryland. The treaty
on limitation of navies, chief work
of the Washington conference, after
an inconsequential debate, was rati-
fed on Wednesday by vote Of IA to
/. Mr.. France defended his lonely
negative vote by cOntepding that the
United States; should continue build
ing the largest navy in the world un-
til all other nations had shown their
willingness to abolish war totally. OF
the other irreconcilables, BOrah ex-
planned that he favored the treaty
because it was a step toward the goal
at which he had been aiming for many
years, namely, complete disarmament,
and that he believed this agreement
was as much as the international con-
ference was able to accomplish. John
son of California did not disguise his
dislike for the pact, especially its Pa
cific fortifications clause. but he voted
for ratification on the assurance of
the navy general board that the United
States would not give up anything that
is strategically vital. King Of Utah,
though accepting the treaty, thought
it would have small effect in reduc-
ing naval expenditures, predicting that
huge sums now would be spent on
aircraft and submarines.
Immediately after the vote of ratifi-
cation the senate took up the treaty
prohibiting the use of poison gas and
restricting the use of submarines in
warfare and accepted it unanimously.
Before casting his vote Senator Wads-
worth Of New York, chairman Of the
military affairs committee, expressed
the opinion that in the next war this
treaty would not be worth the paper
it was written on.
"FOr my own part" said Senator
WadSWOrth, II shall be very much dis
couraged if the United States army
should stop trying to perfect gas
masks because of this treaty. We
don't dare stop. And the only way
we can perfect gas masks is to test
them with the kind of gases which we
may have to combat. We might as
we'll look the facts in the face"
Before the week closed, the remain
ing treaties, the nine-power pact re-
lating to China and the one dealing
with the Chinese tariff, were put
through, and thus the senate complet.
ed it's part in making the great
Washington conference success
Naturally, and with reason, the Dem.
ocrats claim a share in this accom-.
plishment, especially asserting that
former President Wilson must be
given much credit for arousing public
opinion in favor of naval limitation
It is evident, however that the Repub.
licans will make large use of the con
ference and its results in this years
congressional campaign.
There is every reason to believe the
treaties will be speedily ratified by the
other powers party to them. Indeed
not one of them is in a position to
afford to hold back from full agree
ment.

a T MIDNIGHT Friday operations
"A ceased in all the unionized btu
minous and anthracite coal mines of
the country, $4,000 miners laying
down their tools. All efforts to pre-
vent the great strike were futile. Ac-
cording to some of the union leaders,
the walkout is likely to last about
sixty days. During that time, pre-
sumably, both sides will formulate
their demands and present their cases,
and it may be that these will result
in the negotiation of new contracts.
The operators insist that wages must
come down in correspondence with the
decline in the cost of living, but they
have not yet revealed what percent

The miners, in reply, say that the
stagnation in the coal industry is due
to wasteful methods of production, ex-

supply and demand in control of mar
