lROQUOIS LIVED IN CABINS
Members of Tribe Regarded Them
selves as Supermen Among
All Other indians.

The IroquOis regarded themselves as
supermen among all other Indians.
They were particularly proud of their
cabins, and were known by other
tribes as Cabin Indians. Even when
hunting, part of the womans task was
to carry the portable makings of a
cabin and put them together
These dwellings were constructed
somewhat on the principle of mod
ern apartment house with accommoda-
tons for from five to twenty families,
sometimes more. They varied in size,
being usually about 30 feet in length,
breadth and height; often as long as
40 feet, and sometimes exceeding 500
feet. ,.----,
passageway in the center divided
the compartments on either side and
served for fireplaces. Adults slept on
mats placed on the ground or on
low platform, the younger members of
the family sleeping on an upper tier.
For privacy, such as it was, strips of
bark or skin were used. They were
not all rude; on the contrary some Of
them were neatly matched with bark,
and their crevices were covered with
strips of skins.-Detroit News.

TRADE AS
ISOLATION PROGRAM

The executive officers of the Idaho
Automotive Trades association, repre-
senting principal dealers and garage
establishments, have outlined a ten
tative program of activities for the
next IL months.
"The association will give good
deal of time to the requirements Of
auto owners, while in nowise neg
lecting the interests of its members"
the secretary of the organization
stated. r
1--WE will make survey Of the gas
oline tax to determine whether or not
to support the proposed increase to
8 Gems gallon. We will continue
researches into the gasoline situation
with the view Of evolving some plan
to secure cheaper gasoline for this
territory. The questions of auto IL

progress-and that is still sitting
there. The thing the "croaker" does
best is to sit!
If Idaho had been approved at any
time by the croaker classes, the state
might have been in danger of remain
ing a combination desert and wilder
ness.
The Men Who Do" approved it,
however, and Idaho has been moving
right along. This is good state.
It will be a better state in proportion
as we quit kicking and croaking and
do more work.
We've got to believe in Idaho first
of all; and to do so we should close
~ur ears and eyes to the steady flow
of blue funk from the mouths ana
pens of men who tell us that every
thing is headed straight for the bow
vows out here.
Relief? Yes-for agriculture es-
pecially, here and all over the coun-
try; but retreat, quit? Who's FOR
that?

At one of the gatherings in an cleo
toral campaign he was frequently in
terrupted by man in the body of the

The knight bore this trial with adj.
mirable good humor, till, seeing an
opening for scoring a point, he said:

thing about the government that will

or perhaps as an indication Of the
habits of the Colonial Spaniards, play

the Museum Of the Indies in Seville
Spain, there is pack OF playing cards
made in 1888. The faces Of these
cards are limitations of the European
types, but the backs represent Aztec
scenes and caricatures of the Span
iards. These were made from wood
blocks, perhaps the first cut in the new

Spain was peculiarly fortunate in the
fact that her ArgOsies touched the most
cultivated and highly civilized people
in the new world. They were crafts
men equal to any that Europe knew.
They had arts as highly developed as

liant handling of the mast gigantic
undertaking of the history of recla-

machinery for furthering the project.

LIKE 18TH CENTURY EUROPE
Present Day Map Would Be More Fa-
mi:iar to Louis xI Than to Met
ternich or Riche.ieu.

An age of conquest having ended,
and its great actors having left the
world stage, young nations are coming
to the front. The world is resuming
the aspect II had before the era began.
Not the identical aspect, of course I;
for the expansion of races.-especially
the white and the black-and the ex-
termination of certain peoples in the
new world make it impossible to re-
store in its entirety the fresco COW
cred by the whitewash of centuries.
None the less. the political and terri
torial map of the world today resem-
bles much more that Of the Fifteenth
century than that of the Eighteenth or
Nineteenth century.
An accident? Not at all. What has
Europe achieved in the last hundred
years, as she has slowly pushed the
Turk out of the continent? She has
brought to light submerged nations
the Greeks, Serbs Wallachians Media
VANS, Albanians, Bulgarians. Europe
has labored and suffered to restore the
map of the Balkans approximately as
1t was in the Middle Ages.
What have we tried to do in Bo-
hemia? To revive a government and
a nation erased from political history
since 1920. What did we seek in Po-
land and in Lithuania? To rescue ma
lions submerged since 1772 and 1875.
Everywhere the people have de-
manded that the verdicts of centuries
be reversed, and they have done this
so successfully that we have a world
that would be far less familiar to
Metternich, Richelieu or
than it would be to Louis XI
or Charles V.-Paris Revue Bleue.
