Minnesota needn't be excited the Tea
pot Dome Scandal. She has all the scandal she
can handle right in her own back yard, the
White Earth Reservation. The pictures and their
captions, published last week in the Minneapolis
Journal following Governor Preus' order rela-
tive to investigation of conditions, reveal state
of affairs which should cause every MINES otan to
weep for pity, and-what is of infinite more value
to blush for the shame of it all. Twelve years
ago investigation made, and today sec
ond investigation reveals conditions just as bad,
and disease conditions even much worse. These
are the first Americans and therefore entitled to
all the rights of America and her bounty But
more than that they are human beings, and en-
titled to Christian love and Because these
people are Stoics of the most stocial nature is no
reason they should be left to endure all things

Fear that opposition to an investigation vii!

for one, is bit of psychology that the promoter
of these congressional probes thoroughly under
stand. AS a consequence congress is said to be
threatened with no less than fifty Investigations
covering practically every bureau and commits
sion of the government.
Everybody knows that in the majority o.
cases no useful end is attained. The government
pigeon holes are cluttered with reports whfh nave

cruing.
Too much investigation may be as unproht
able as too much legislation, more especially a.
the one provokes the other.

Every time new candidate for governor
appears-and these appearances are becoming
weekly--on every hand we hear it said "Well he
won't get to first base" Just saying that won't
keep some one of these far undesirable 'hes'
from getting there. If the Republicans fail to
put their united strength back of some real man
they are likely to suffer the humiliation of seeing
men whom the party cannot conscientiously spon-
sor, ride into office on the name of the o. P.
There have been many crys of wolf, Wolf.
But that doesn't lessen the seriousness Of the stu
alton when the sheep find the big gray fellow RICH;
in the drove's midst. The fact that the drove Is
SHEEP instead of elephants may be the party
chief difficulty.

We doubt if there was a newspaper worker
in Minnesota Certainly not in the Second Dis
trict) who did not in his heart last Wednesday
pay sorrowing tribute to good John c.. Wise of
Mankato who was buried on that day. John was
loved of all with whom he came in contact--loved
for so many good qualities it would take book
to enumerate them. Not the least of these was his
fine wholesome understanding of the other fel
lows problems and weaknesses and his big will
ingness to help. Newspaper men in Minnesota will
come and go but John c. Wise will live forever
in the hearts Of the many men and women who
knew and loved him the very perfect gentle
men.

There is one thing about this Senate inquiry

to think about the hell of war; Nothing earth

in the minds of Americans. But what mess

A MAN AND HIMSELF.
man might fool the public, he might fool
y his friends; he might fool his family.
u Rut he can't fool himself

A man might fool the public, he might fool
II his friends; he might fool his family.
But he can't fool himself
He has to live with himself "a hours every
day in the year. He can't get away from him
self. And no matter what people think he is, no
matter how successful he may be in making peo-
pie believe ne is something that he isn't, he him
self, will always know just what he really is
Some men know this. Some of tker1 think
of it. Some of them are just selfish enough t"
want to think we'll of themselves, and to know
that they deserve the respect of others. And
they so conduct themselves toward their fellow
men that they can thoroughly enjoy self-respect
That is enlightened selfshness.
And it is the kind of selfshness that the
world can stand. For it makes men good because
they want to be good and enjoy being good. And
that beats being good because some laws say
you must be good, and threatens you with punish
ment if you are not
The hypocrte cannot be really happy Peo-
pie may think he is. He may lead in prayers, say
grace before meals, pose pious Christian and
still rob and cheat his fellows. And he may keep
on foolng his fellow churchmen. But he can't
fool himself. And he can't fool God.
When he gets through with his days work
of fooling other men in the marts of trade, and
then gets through foolng his neighbors at church,
he has to deal with himself. And when he goes
to bed he knows, if nobody else does, that he is
going to sleep with thief, robber and hypo-
critic. And he knows that all tie ingenuity OF
hell can't separate him from that thief, robber
and hypocrite during the remainder OF MS natural
life.
No man can be truly happy unless he be
at peace with himself. And he can't be at peace
with himself unless he, himself, absolutely knows
that he is what he pretends to be and what ne
wants others to believe him to be; and thai
means to be good. For none Of us want other
people to believe US to be dishonest, evil or ur-
just

Miss Virginia Slade who read at the armory
last Friday evening, had much to say in favor OF
the courtesy shown her by the men in charge OF

suggestions about stage arrangement, etc., and
about the cleanliness which they achieved out of
the chaos of the stage she saw it early in the
afternoon. Another score for Captain Fraser and
his attaches!

"Once while shone the sun of harvest
Forth into this land of plenty
Stalked the mighty Magnus johnson
He the farmer politician,
He who MIXED the blooded Holstein
He who wooed his wife in English,
And she did not spurn his wooing.
'Then the wives of the great Boosters
Made feast for all the farmers,
From the sauerkraut they made it,
From the bean and from the wiener,
From the crisp and sugared doughnut
Piled aloft and served with coffee,
And the plates were made of paper.
=
"All the farmers came and Toasted,
All the guests praised Big Chief
Wurmstein,
Called him George, der boehmisch'
Called him Wurmstein, Essenkaiser.
'Then the mighty Magnus johnson
Speaking much and saying little
Praised the sauerkraut and the wiener,
Told them of his many exploits,
His advice to Big Chief Coolidge.
"And the chieftains from their camp chairs
Clapped the hand as if delighted,
Asked about his crops and cattle.
Smoked the pipe Of peace with Magnus,
Asked about his crops and cattle.
4
"All day long the farmers Toasted
And the busy Boosters boosted,
While their wives toiled in the kitchen
Mid the odor of the sauerkraut.
"When at last the sun departed
And the moon rose high in heaven
Many Fords were cranked and sworn at,
Many babies, stuffed with sauerkraus,
Raised their voices in lamenting.
Homeward bound the cars departed
"And from out the mighty silence
Afterwards the Boosters spake thus,
Clapping had upon the shoulder:
Springfield is lovely city
If you see it in the Spring."

Albino rats and albino people are
more or less familiar to everybody.
Out in the Missouri botanical garden,
however, there was recently an albino
California redwood tree. 1t was grown
in a bowl from piece of redwood
bark. Shoots and leaves springing
from this bark were perfectly white.
Roots did not develop and the shoots
died, but the mystery is not yet solved
as to why the green color pigment Of
the normal redwood was lacking.
