BURIED TREASURE

1t is regarded in fiction as the normal thing IoF
discoverers to quarrel buried treasure. Lite Is
true to fiction in regard to the greatest buried reauSe
ever uneaTthed-that of King Tutankharen, among
which the mummied king himself is the chie1 Jewel
Archaeology and government have fallen to 1lgnI-
ing over the remains. Howard Carter, the American
excavator and dscoverer Of the tomb, believes ne mas
Z right to half the treasure, and to reasonable oeTl$
of action in his operations The Egyptian government
official custodian of the tomb, believes It has ft 10
boss the job and take everything in sight.
Technically the quarrel is based on legal nierpre
tation. If the tomb is regarded violated tonlo'
that is. a tomb broken into before It's discovery oE
Carter, there is nothing legally sacred about It. ana
Carter NAV share his find with Egypt. II the tomo
was discovered intact it is all Egypts. Carter bases
his claim the circumstantal evidence that theNeS
had broken into the tomb many centuries ago. Ihe
government bases its claim the fact that IN spite OF
that evidence the outer door sealed when discover
ed the seal having been replaced apparently by ancient
governmental authorities who drove away the thieves
before the latter had accomplished tnelr purpose II
IS a pretty case for lawsuit.
1t might be supposed that the Egyptson govern
rent as a matter of deeency. would share up with
Carter because if it had not been for him, the
treasure might never have been found On the other
hand Garter an alien and the tomb and It's treasure
are Egyptian and the mummy itself may we'll be re
garded with patriotic reverence that of celebrated
Egyptian sovereign. Would any other country like to
have foreigners digging up its historic personages,
with all their funeral wealth, and cartng them away?
Suppose Egyptians started digging in Westminster
Abbey?
Meanwhile King Tut sleeps on peacefully as
ever 1t doesn't worry him.

PRESIDENTIAL TERMS

One Of the presidential candidates is urging again
the familiar proposal Of making the presidential term
six years, with the executive ineligible for second
term.
1t is argued that this would tend to lift the presi
decy above politics. because there would be need OF
naneuvering for second term, and that the admin
stration Of government affairs would therefore be
more effective There would be less frequent dstur-
bance of business, too, with presidential elections COM
ing only every six years.
Nevertheless the proposal is not likely to meet
with any favor than has in the past The
president even if he IS not open to reelection cannot
be above parties in this country unless his office is
made as cooress and ineffective that of the French
presidency and there is provided separate party lead
er responsible for legislation That would be diff
cult change to make.
As long as the president remains both chief eXecu-
tive and party leader there is likely to be de-
Inand for shorter than longer terms in order to bring
the government readily into harmony with changes of
national sentiment Political situations change more
rapidly nowadays than they used to. Il would be in
tolerable in this conservative country to have
government dominated by the president, without
recourse for four or five years after the nation had
eared of his policy. The public becomes very restlve
about the United States Senate at times for this very
reason.

CHINESE OPERA SEASON

Portland, Ore, IS having a longer opera season
than any other cities nduging in the estheJic and
spectacular entertainment except Of course New York
and Chicago The western city is having three months
Of opera. But there is chance that attendance will
break records or that the audiences which hrong the
theatre will hear any of the favorites Of German
French or Italian opera that being heard here
and there all the country.
The opera season in Portland is confined TO China
town, where company of 80 noted singers, di-
recty from the Orient, began its engagement with the
Chinese New Year.
Chinese opera. it is said, does little with scenic
and stage effects and much with gorgcousness OF COS
tunes. Chinese standards Of musical excellence, too,
are somewhat different from ours that the singers
of the Chicago Metropolitan opera companies have
little to fear from their oriental rivals at present
1t is well for Americans occasionally to note the
artistic affairs which 60 among our alien popuia-
tions We are inclined too much 10 assume that our
foreigners furnish with nothing but labor and
problems Problems in abundance they do bring. but
but also arts and traditions which are beautiful
worthy and interesting.

Indigestion
May Lead to
Appendicitis

Repeated attacks of Indigestion
often lead to serious inflammation
of the stomach and intestinal tract.
This inflammation may finally eX-
tend to the appendix, which usual
ly becomes infected through the
presence of foul, irritating matter
in the bowels.
1t doesn't pay TO ignore even the
most simple warnings Of digestive
trouble. Neglect is responsible for
much misery. Uncasincss at the
pit Of the stomach, sour taste in the
mouth, excessive gas, heartburn,
nausea, vomiting, bitter risings, con
stipation, biliouSncsa, dizzy spells
and palpitation of the heart after
eating are some of the most common
symptom of poor digestion.

stomach distress, don't fail to try a

WARNS SLOPE
ICE FISHING
MUST CEASE
Barney Maurek, Game War
den, Says ii Will lnjure
West of River Fishing

Reports that youths of-New Salem
speared fish through the ice in the
Heart River have aroused Barney
Maurek, state wide game warden, in
this district to prosecute cases for
other game law violations in Man
dan tomorrow.
"Spearing fish through the ice is
a violation of the game and fish
laws of the state said Mr.. Maurek.
Good sportsmen ought to turn in
the names of those said to have
been spearing fish in the Heart Ri
YER.
For the last few years the game
and fish board has been stocking the
Heart River and some other streams
west of the river and good fishing
has resulted. The streams were
stocked on the understanding that
the people would cooperate to con-
serve them and see that the laws
are obeyed. If the laws are to be
violated by spearing fish through
the ice or other ways, and the peo-
pie west of the river will not help
enforce the lars, the game and fish
board is likely to quit placing fry in
the streams"
Maurek is prosecuting a case for
illegal shipment of muskrat furs, to
