OctagOn Eyed Spiders

Most SPIDERS have eight eyes ar
ranged in an octagon. Spiders that
live in tubes and dark recesses from
which they emerge only occasionally
TO seize their prey, usually have
their eyes grouped together closely
IN the middle of the forehead. Those
spiders that live in short tubes and
use a wide web to catch their VIC
Tins have eyes that are spread out
more, while the spiders that live out
doors have their eyes widely spaced
apart. Sitting in the middle of a
web, a spider can see in all iirec-

Origin of l2-Man Jury

An interesting theory with respect
to the selection of the custom Of
having II members on a jury was
advanced in 1862 by Lord Summers
and corroborated by Lord Coke. The
theory, recognizing that the purpose
of the jury was to ascertain the
truth, recorded the fact that the IL
major prophets of the Bible fore
told the truth; the Twelve Apostles
preach the truth; representatives of
the Twelve Tribes of Israel were
sent to Canaan to investigate and
discover the truth, and the Holy
City, New Jerusalem, was founded
upon II stones of truth

Population Glacier Co.

The preliminary announcement
of the population of Glacier
County as given out this week by
Homer Whitmore. Supervisor of
Census shows growth which pro-
baby puts Glacier in the lead for
the state in percentage of in
crease for the ten year period.
Mr.. Whitmore's figures give US
population of 1894 as compared
with 1927 in the 1880 count or an
increase of 1852 or seventy per
cent.
The figures just released in
clude only the county total but
previous releases give an idea of
the distribution. Browning and
its immediate environs have
population of just about 22C0. the
rest of the reservation in Glacier
County has 1852 and the forrest
reserve and National Park area
within the county would bring
the total west of the river" to
$500 persons. Cut Bank has
2600 people if we include those in
the community but just outside
the corporate limits, which leaves
a balance of about HOO for the
oil field farming the town of
Santa Rita.

Are We Any Wiser?

There is plenty of criticism of the
European democracies for whatsome
consider their astonishing failure to
recognize in time the fast-growing
military power of the dictator ma
tons, and to prepare TO meet it.
Informed commentators are now
asking if we are any wiser. We
have the same chance to prepare
that England and France had few
years ago. Will we do it, with
maximum efficiency and minimum
waste-or will we permit red tape
and politics to make our defense
program ineffective?

Indian Tribes Will Sponsor
National Unity Organization

of the coming week is the meet
ing of delegates from the various
Montana tribes planning to Or
ganize into a statewide or a ma
tional organization in a united
effort to better Indian welfare
and conditions.
1t is important that the Black
feet get behind such an organi.

the domination and the frayed
apron strings of Washington Of
ficialdom by fighting their fight
through unity of action. having
solid Indian backing and support
rather than the sporadic efforts
made by individual tribes, often

in which all are mutually inter-

As an illustration Ct the value
OF organization or unity of action,
the Blackfeet should know that
recently Senator H. F. Ashurst
of Arizona has introduced in the
Senate, a bill, Is 2164). which
uthorizes Congress to dispossess
and to cancel all legal claims and
treaty agreements with Indians
within the United States. The
Senate Indian Affairs committee
voted down this bill as being un-
constitutional and now, it is re-
ported that a move is on to bring
the bill back for reconsideration.
Should this bill become a law,
imagine the terrible hardships
and blasted hopes imposed on the
Indians who are now receiving
benefits through their treaties or
who are due to receive the same
benefits. incidentally. every In
dian should write his senators
and congressman asking and urg-
ing them to vote NO and to vote
down S 2164.
If this bill becomes a law. the
hopes of the Blackfeet go glim
