Tomb Skeleton Of
Indian Chief Found.

A laborer digging behind an old
mill near Sloatsourg, New York,
uncovered vault-like stone tomb
containing the skeleton and Indian
regalia, it is believed, of Chief
Schunnemunk of the Minsie tribe
Of Delaware Indians.
The feathered headdress and
trinkets of an Incian chief were
found we'll preserved beside the
skeleton, which lay in rock
coffin covered with clay. The
vault, just large enough for one
body, was hidden beneath rocks.
Not more than half dozen such
vaults containing the remains of
men prominent in Indian tribes
have been found before in this
country, it is said.

Governor Baxter
May Again Name a
Fuel Administrator

When the coal crisis arose in
August, 1922. Governor Baxter ap-
pointed Andrew P. Lane, fuel ad-
ministrator for Maine. There was
no law on the statute books au-
thorizing the creation of, this posi-
ton. but Governor Baxter felt that
public sentiment would approve his
action. Mr.. Lane proved a very able
administrator and almost without
exception the coal dealers of the
State co-operated with him.
Foreseeing that there might be
need of fuel administrator in future,
Governor Baxter had an act drafted
and presented to the 1923 Legislature
under which, if an emergency arose,
a fuel administrator could be ap-
pointed with the backing of law. The
proposed act did not create a new
office, but provided that it could be
created if the people of Maine were
suffering and in want of fuel. Ow-

that profits did not show as favOrably

STATE HOUSE

ing to the opposition of certain large
coal dealers in Portland. the Legis-
lature did not enact the proposed
law, and the State now finds itself in
the same position that 1t was in in
1922.
Governor Baxter was disappointed
that the Legislature did not pass the
proposed law for even at that time
there were rumbling of an impending
anthracite strike. On being asked
about this situation Governor BaX-
ter said: 1.-THE opposition of certain
coal dealers to the proposed law was
arbitrary and selfish. They did not
want the State to have the power to
control the fuel supply, even though
BY doing so much suffering might be
prevented. These companies wanted
to keep the matter entirely in their
own hands. and they had influence
enough with the Legislature to haze
their way. If strike comes and a
shortage of coal ensues, l shall be
forced either to call a special session
Of the Legislature and ask it to pass
the law it refused to pass last win
ter, or I shall again appoint fuel
administrator and rely upon public
sentiment to support my action. The
time to take care Of these matters is
before trouble arises, and that is
what I attempted to do when l had
the act introduced.
ut is doubtful if again would be
fortunate enough to secure the serv-
ices of Mr.. Andrew P. Lane. The
company for which he works, the
Great Northern Paper Company.
adopted a most liberal attitude and
at great inconvenience to itself al
lowed Mr.. Lane to serve the State
for eight months. 1t was most
generous thing for this company to
do, and the people Of Maine should
appreciate it, 7 should hesitate be-
fore asking them to make another
similar sacrifice and release Mr.. Lane
for the public service. because the
Great Northern already has done its
part andsmore.
"What we need in Maine is more
cooperation and less selfishness. The
State Fuel administration of 1922

was to help the citizens and indus

again help in every way if the
