situation, are inclined to blame most
Of the dissatisfaction upon the people
who are receiving the relief, but
cannot agree with this viewpoint.
In the first place there Is no doubt
whatever but that the whole relief
situation Is q very hard matter to
handle, and that the dispensing Of the
government relief Is more Or less
bound up In rules and regulations that
do not always allow those In charge
to handle things as they might wish
to handle them. I am also satisfied
that the men and women In charge
Of the relief offices desire to do the
fair thing with those receiving aid,
but the fact remains that there still
exists q considerable number Of peo-
pie who are being held right up
against near-starvation.
! think there should be some sort
Of an Independent board or group, not
connected with either the federal Of
fices or with the county commission.
ers, which board would inset say one
session per week for the purpose Of
hearing complaints, and to make such
recommendations Is they saw 1T to
the county commissioner and federal
relief offices. This method would sup
ply an impartial group that would
take q great deal Of work from the
shoulders Of the present officials, and
at the same time supply . place where
complaints could always be heard and
acted upon On short notice.
It is = desperate situation 1t best,
but am satisfied that there are at
present far too many Of our good
people suffering from lack Of food,
clothing and necessary bedding, and
I believe that the situation can b
greatly improved II the people Of Bis
marck and the proper officials give
this important matter the consider.
alton 1t deserves, bearing In mind at
all times that our people are not to
blame for the present situation; that
they are helpless under the present
circumstances, and that It Is the duty
Of all Of US to help see to It that none
Of our people shall suffer for the lack
Of the common necessities Of Life.
Yours truly,
JOSEPH COoHLAN.

Editor, Tribune:
God appeareth to Solomon. II
Chronicles VII, 12-I3-14.
"l2-And the Lord appeared to Solo
mon by night and said unto him,
have heard thy prayer and have
chosen this place to myself for an
house Of sacrifice.
I31f shut up heaven that there
be no rain. or II command the
locusts to devour the land, or II
send pestilence among my people:
"l4-If my people, which are call
ed by my name, shall humble them
selves and pray, and seek my face,
and turn from their wicked ways:
Then will I hear from heaven, and
win forgive their sin, and will heal
their land"
Does this not seem like our condi-
ton Of people In our drouth stricken
states? Yes, We might say Of our ma
tons which have turned their ways
from God?
Let us humble ourselves and pray,
and seek His face and turn from our
wicked ways. And God will return to
us and we can have crops from our
healed Land for the year Of 1885.
Have faith In God and let us I'LL

Ne,v Ir1diat, Village Being
Built Over Ancient Site
Work by .ccc Reveals vsstires
OF Redmen's Life in Da-
kotas 200 Years Ago

reconstruction Of the MandAn
indian village which passed out Of
existence perhaps 125 years before
white men settled in the Dakota
territory is nearing completion at
Pioneer Park this week as the civilian
conservation corps puts finishing
touches on the last Of three Birch
lodges, typical Of the habitations used
BY the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara
tribes.
Over the mounds Of earth which
mark the sites Of one-time homes
abandoned by the Indians, the new
birch lodges are being erected, iden.
tical IN every respect to those which
200 years ago looked down over the
Missouri from the hill.
Construction Of the LODGES be1ins
with framework Of four posts In the
center. then cross beams and rafters
are added to be followed, first BY a
heavy layer Of willow bows, then 4
covering OF hay and finally q heavy
layer Of dirt.
Old Civilization Revealed
The project at Pioneer Park IL be-
Ing sponsored by the City Of Bis.
marck. The park was placed in
charge OF the city by the Burleigh
County Pioneer association several
years ago and 1t was the association
which filed an application with CCC
authorities for reconstruction OF the
village.
Numerous vestiges OF the ancient
Indian civilization are being revealed
BY the CCC workmen both at the local
project and one undertaken near
Mandan.
The workmen have uncovered out
lines OF mud lodges aside from those
which were formerly apparent to the
eye. Pottery fragments, bone tools
and flint work have been uncovered
as we'll as old frameworks Of villages
under latter villages.
The fore-runner OF the modern re-
frtgerator-a followed hole In the
door Of the lodge, its sides burned 70
make 1t hard-has been revealed. Into
the hole Indians cached their foods
and on trips from the village covered
holes with dirt to make detection I'm
possible.
Abandoned Since l70o
The village near old Fort Lincoln
apparently has been abandoned since
1850, said Russell Reid, state historical
society superintendent. for no metal
or glass trinkets Of any description
has been found. White men moving
through the territory In 1904 saw no
sign Of the village.
The Bismarck project at Pioneer
Park has definitely shown one Of the
villages built upon q village. The
work has revealed posts Of the stop
village, and as they strike deeper,
other poles have come to light.
The ancient tribes long before
trench warfare was popular in Europe
maintained trench defense In Bis
marck, the excavations show. TWO
sides Of the village at Pioneer Park
were protected by slopes too steep to
be easily climbed by attackers. On
the other two sides, wide meats were
dug, paralleled by closely-built i'm
placements. Behind these fortified
tons the villages lived secure.
It is hoped to induce an Indian
family to live in one Of the lodges ct
pioneer Park during the summer
months, to depict life Of the Indian
Of long ago to visitors.

COL LUMBIA PLAYERS
IN MOUNTAIN STORY
"Moonshine and Honeysuckle'
Is Well Presented on Pierce
Hall Stage.

"Moonshine and Honeysuckle" Is
restful and peaceful except lin the
Southern Mountains" where the three
acts of Lula Vollmer's play are laid
And the Columbia Players gave no dull
moments in their performance of this
drama last evening in Pierce Hall. The
cast is we'll chosen. and SO well bal
anced that it is difficult to select any
one or two outstanding in their work.
Richard Kreuzburg as Glenn Belts
played the leading role with Doro-
thea Lewis as Cracker Gaddis playing
opposite him. Their work is profess
sional enough to lift them much above
the amateur. Those supporting them
did their parts equally well.
The play, as presented last evening,
has its stirring moments and its gun
fire, though there are no casualties,
and many moments Of humor. None
of these opportunities was lost by the
cast The performance moved smooth
ly and with apparent ease.
The setting. the yard in front OF
the Belts cabin, was designed and
executed by Jane Lasater Rubey. as
sisted by Oliver Anderson. Lois Hall.
Steele Kennedy and Jack Parrish.
The very clever lighting. which added
to the effectiveness Of the scene. was
by w. ]. Ellenberger. Dorothy White
was in charge of the properties.
The cast also included Juliet Edes
