O Indians TO whom we are indebted
for most of our pictorial evidence
about the red man while he still compara-
lively untouched by the so-caled "ciyilizing" in
fluences of the white man.
Foremost among the names of these artists
is that of George Catlin and mention of him
is singularly appropriate at this time because
1t was just 100 years ago that Catlin had started
on his work of recording the appearance social
life and customs of the tribes of the transmits
sissippi West Catlin was born in Wyoming.
Pa. in 1896 and in accordance with his fathers
wishes studied for the profession of law, which
he began practicing in Philadelphia. But, be-
ing fond of excitement and adventure, he found
1t difficult TO stick to his business and he de-
voted almost as much time to his ayocation of
drawing and painting. In which he was self
taught, as he did to his vocation Of law
One day in 1850 party of Indians from the
Far West" who were on their way to a coun-
Gil with the Great White Father in Washington
stopped in Philadelphia. Catlin saw them
on the streets and was delighted with their
fine forms and noble bearing that lie determined
TO give up his law practice and devote his life
TO making collection of paintings of Indians
which would show, after they were gone how
they looked and how they lived.
The result was his first journey to the Indian
country in 1882 and for the next eight years he
devoted himself to the work He travelled many
thousands of miles by canoe and on horseback
among tribes which were still as wild and un-
tanned as they had been in pre- Columbian days
and he found plenty of excitement difficulty and
danger in his work. He made paintings every
where, portraits OF chiefs and warriors paint
ings of the scenery of the West of herds of buff
falo. of hunting life, of Indian games cere-
monies social custOms-everything that would
Illustrate the life and country of the wild tribes
of the West. More than that. he painted scenes
Of old trading posts and United States forts.
upon whose sites now stand important American
cities. so that if he had not left an in
valuable record of the Indian, the historical
value of this other phase of his work would be
great enough to place Americans under heavy
debt of gratitude to him.
Catlin not only painted hundreds of pictures
but he made big collection of Indian objerts
dress, weapons. scalps, objects used in games
articles of clothing, ornaments. etc. With all
of these he made tour of the East, exhibiting
his collections in the larger cities and every
where attracting large crowds.
1t seems unfortunate that Catlin could not
have profted more from his work while he lived
For in his old age he lost the fortune which he
had built up, became bankrupt, in fact. until
all he had left was his gallery of some 500 or
more of his Indian paintings. These he would not
sell but gave them to the Smithsonian institu-
tion for safekeeping as an imperishable record
of his life work and of a vanishing race Some
of them were destroyed or injured in fire which
swept the institution in January 1865, but the

Industry is being repeatedly warned that
the NIRA-National Industrial Recovery
Act-has plenty of teeth in it. They say
that the government has plenty Of author
ity to enforce its demands, reasonable or un-
reasonable as they may seem to the individ-
ual who is attempting to keep his private
standing as taxpayer. It seems reasonable
to suppose that If the government really
wants to see recovery in industry that it
would go out Of competition with private en-
terprise IF the idea is in general commune
istic one, then that's something else again.

Reporter established January "a 1908Con April 1914

Reports one day state that the Rosa ir-
rigation project up the valley has received
the official ok. Next day we read in the pa
pers that the item was omitted from the pro-
gram as outlined in the public works bill. The
project runs to eleven million dollars. If the
costs of construction are to be charged to
the land owners as has been the custom in
the past, the project is foredoomed to fail
ure. Two hundred fifty dollars per acre in
addition to the annual maintenance charges
are too much for any such project to carry
IF on the other hand, the government, both
state and federal construct the project and
make no charge to the settlers then they are
on the right track and much will be added
to the states potential wealth. As We have
repeatedly said if the project is feasible from
all standp0ints it should not be under
taken unless it is the actual settlers should
not be required to pay one cent of the con-
struction costs. In the end the cost will be
no greater. The construction of such projects
is national benefit and the costs should be
borne by the government under the same
logic as many of the federal projects are now
being handled.

Only one bid was received for the states
ten million dollar bond issue this week. That
carried such big discount that the state re
fused to accept it. The bill authorizing the
issue declared an emergency existed and that
the state was in state Of insurrection. Let's
see: The session was in November and the
emergency was Immediate so they said. It
is now July and so far the insurrection has
not yet developed. However it may yet de-
velop. There is going to be a real insurrec-
ton soon participated in by the taxpayers,
unless some Of the reforms promised are
forthcoming. @

In the states where the dries have been
concentrating their energies and money the
tide has gone against them. It appears that
repeal is now more certain than ever. BY
curious alignment we find that many citi-
zens who have voted "dry" at every previous
opportunity are numbered among those who

repeal it does not by any means indicate that
he may thenceforth be considered a "wet."
1t is merely an expression of the opinion that
the eighteenth amendment is not satisfac-
tory solution of the temperance problem.

for women's rights here when lie
placed before the senate a bill to

Code Napoleon, uhose author was
inspired by the belief that nature
has made women our slaves"
The legislative commission set
aside the part of the bill detailing
changes in the marital regime, but
Rene Renoult hopes to get some
action at least.
The senator indicated that the
war had shown woinan's capacity
to work on an even footing with
men, and declared 1t was high time
that France should change the re-
strictions laid down by Napoleon,
this being the only country still
holding out.

That day Uncle Wiggily had come
TO the seashore in queer shack
made of store boxes hitched toge-

There were more than dozen boz
es, like a train of cars and they
were hauled along on roller skate
wheels. Mr.. Stubtail, the Brown
Bear and Mr.. Whitewash, the Polar
Bear, had hauled the shack to the
seashore. Now 1t was night and
something strange was happening.
When Uncle Wiggily had his slip
pers on, which took little time, as
at first he tried to get two paws in
one slipper, he started with his
flashlight to look around outside
and see what was humping up his
shack where he and his wife and
children were going TO live at the

BY this time Uncle Wiggily was
fully awake. AS he sat up in bed
he felt something strange beneath
the floor of his shack. The floor
seemed to rise up in the middle and
then it sank down and the whole
shack trembled.

facturers of Majestic radios and re-

banner month in radio and refriger-

cording to a report on file at police
headquarters.
John Aginus who has a station at
New and Main streets reported that
hitch hiker came into his station
and asked if he could leave a bum
die of clothing there for short
time. The attendant, being busy,
told the man TO leave the bundle
just inside the door and it would be
all right. This the man did, saying
he would return for it in a short
time.
He came back within a half hour
| and, the attendant being busy
| again. the traveller went inside
picked up his bundle and proceeded
on his way. Coming into the sta
ton. the attendant discovered that
about SO in cash and currency had
been taken from the till.
This happened late last night. the
