The political aspirants are real
~ holding open house this year
We are just as confused as any,
one else as to how many are run
ming for what office and what
ticket who is running on. In fact
it's getting TO the point where
inter-party feuds are the center
Of interest and party affiliations
are being split wide open with
the barrage of new adjectives
being employed.
There seems TO be two new
classes of politicians this year;
the DemocanS and the Repuli.
Gratis The DenGocans emanate
from both parties and can be
identified by their own confusion
and tongue-stumbling. They base
their eligibility and ability on a
secret sense of Identification with
which they have been endowed,
thus permitting them TO ferret
out the unloyal, unreliable, unfit,
unintelligent, unqualified and all
the rest of "uns" contributing TO
the social and economic instabil-
ity of our country. They, alone,
are of the fit and chosen group.
The Republicans are more or
less of the same breed, but OF
slightly different color. They or
iginate within their own party,
holding TO their own confines,
and direct their bitter criticism,
in much the same manner as the
DemOcans. only at targets within
their own party. They are the
boys who are splitting their par
ties down the middle . as well
as their political bedfellows, and
in most cases, purely from a per
sonal and social angle.
The age of political science and
the political weapons are chang
ing as fast as the missile program
and getting nearly as ex-
pensive.
About this time of the year
city cleanup campaigns are being
organized in most communities,
and have been for the past cOu-
pie of years in Browning. How
ever. to date we have heard
nothing about such a program,
and a look around the town con-
vinceS US that such an undertak-
ing would not be out of order
. particularly with the expect
ed flow Of high-brow tourists
this season.
Read an article yesterday stat
ing that u s. scientists have
solved the problem of supplying
fresh and pure water for future
space ships II might be in
line TO suggest that the city
fathers contact these gentlemen
and explain the relationship be-
tween our own water problems
TO those OF the celestial realm.
We were glad to learn that the
Tribal Elders committee on In
dian Days decided TO set the date
of the annual encampment TO
coincide with the Governors
Conference dates. II will save a
lot of trouble in attempting to
set up a special Indian village,
and generally, will solve a LOT
of problems.
II can be assumed that the en-
campment will attract far more
tourists and governors parties
than would the special pro-
motion. II is generally felt that
we can be assured that a
good many of the governors will
certainly make the trip to Brown
ing to witness the authentic rit-
uals and dances, a sight they may
never be able TO see anywhere
else. or at least as conveniently
and that the nations top
reporters and photographers will
make ii a point to find time to
add rare color to their stories
and pictures.
Il will now be up TO Crow Chief
to make big medicine that will
give US good weather for the
event.
Local youngsters are being at

the Sherburne Mercantile where
hundreds of brightly colored
chicks and ducklings are being
featured for Easter gifts
The young minds of the win
dow shoppers are not inactive as
can be CLEANED from the excited
conversation as they watch the
birds and wish Where do
they get the colored eggs that
make colored chicks? Are the
mother hens colored too? Won
