The Pageant Story
Day by Day
Lewis and Clark.
In 1803 the United Status reached
only to tho Mississippi river. Thomas
Jofforson had long dreamed of trans
continental explorations. Hearing that
England was planning an expedition
to study tho geography of the Pa
cific coast, ho foresaw a possible in
tent to colonize tho great western tor
rltory. Negotiations ami plans wore
laid before Meriwether Lewis and Wil
liam Clark to lead a party of explora
tion to the Pacific. The onlent of the
expedition as given to the public was
that they wore to explore tho Missis
sippi river.
At this time Napoleon was having
trouble with Kngland and he was
quick to realize that Kngland, Invin
cible on the seas, could readily seize
and hold Louisiana territory in Amer
ica, In case of war. Livingston and
Jnmes Monroo woro In France at this
time to open negotiations lor the pur
chase of enough laud about tho mouth
of tho Mississippi to Insure an outlet
for tho United States commerce.
When hoy were approached by tho
French ministers, who proposed sell
ing them the whole of Uiuislana, the
mispoctod a trick. 'When convinced of
Napoleon's sincerity, they were quick
to see the wonderful opportunity foi
tho United States. Thoy assumed the
responsibility of tho bargain and tlu
treaty was signed April 30. 1803. Con
srosH readily rallied the treat).
Tho acquisition of this Immense ter
ritory removed all need of secrecy re
garding tho Lewis and Clark expedi
tion. Tho party consisted of nlno Ken
tucky frontiersmen, It soldiers, two
yiench-Canadlan boatmen, a hunter
and Interpreter, several carriers an 1

faithful servant. She warned them ol
the enmity of Jealous traders; and she
shamed her unscrupulous husband In
(o Handing by Ills promise when ho
would have failed to accompany the

Tho baud of 30 men, a girl and a
l)nby, prosalug on through tho iiioim

country of the Shoshones. Great was
'tho joy of Sacajawea to find that the
chief who welcomed them was her
brother, (Black Bow. Her people sold
them much needed horses and when
the journey was continued, she went
as faithfully as before. She acted as
emissary to the unfriendly Klatheads
and Pierced Nose Indians; she warned
Capt. Lewis of a design to take his
life; she cured ills with herbs that
grow by tho waysido and through her
intuitive knowledge of tho creatures
and plants of tho country, sho often
saved her companions from hunger.
Tho heroic traverse of tho moun
tains was tho most critical period of
the journey.
Tho next winter was spent at Fort
Clatsop on the Pacific coast.
The return homo was marked b,.

over them, once it is too late."
Korfanty characterizes .Lloyd Geor
ge's declaration that the Silesians
never rebelled against Germany dur
ing the war as "cruel derision from
a statesman's lips inasmuch as it
took the allies five years to conquer
the same armies."
"'I myself never fought with the
allies," he declares, "but daily I risk
ed my life in the German reichstag
for the allied cause."
He concludes: "To accuse the gov
ernment at Warsaw of complicity is
only a deliberate misrepresentation
of the situation and I appeal to your
sense of justice and your honor as an
Englishman to correct your views
which were based on false informa-j

540 AGENTS QUIT;
BOOTLEGGERS HAPPY
By Ralph Hi. Turner
(United News Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, May 18. For 40
days and 40 nights, beginning Friday
there will be a perceptible increase
in wetness of the United States.
This forecast, Issued reluctantly
and with considerable misgiving,
comes from the offices of the prohi
bition commissioner in Washington. It
is supported, and viewed with even
greater alarm, by officials of the anti
saloon league.
For on Friday, approximately 540
prohibition enforcement agents will
bo dropped from the service, due to
tho failure of congress to grant a
deficiency appropriation for enforce
ment of the Volstead act. The service
will continue with its undermanned
personnel until July 1, when the new
appropriation of $7,500,000 becomes
effective. Prohibition enforcement al
'ready had received a deficiency ap
propriation of $1,400,000. This was
$200,000 less than the amount asked
and the latter sum was never grantei.
"It is the most serious blow which
has been de"alt to prohibition since
enactment of the Volstead act," said
Wayne IB. Wheeler, counsel for the
'Anti-saloon league. "Bootleggers will
'be able to operate with greater free
dom, booze runners will encounter
less vigilance and illicit stills will
find it easier to break the law. It
'is extremely unwise on the part of
congress to permit suspension of an
activity which brings more money to
the government than the service costs,
especially at a time when liquor in
terests are seeking to undermine the
enforcement of the law."
Regret also was expressed over the
fact that many trained field agents,
scattered throughout the country,
would be suspended from the service
and will have. obtained other Jobs bo
fore July 1. Suppression of liquor
traffic will receive a severe set-back,
it was stated, arid the effective work
of many months may be lost.

PLAN MONUMENT TO
FIRST POILU KILLED
By United News
PARIS, May 19. A monument to
the first French soldier to fall in the
war will soon be unveiled in the de
partment of Haute Rhin, on the road
from Jonchery to Faverels, about a
half hour's ride from the little fron
tier town of Delleu. The man 'whose
memory it will honor is Corporal Peu
geot, of the 44th infantry, who was
shot by a German officer on August
2, 1914, before the declaration of war.
Peugeot, a youngster of 21, was In
command of a little outpost about
ten kilometers from the actual fron
tier. A German cavalry patrol com
manded by Lieutenant Mayer of the
Fifth Cuirassiers from Mulhousen,

and killed the corporal. It was the
first shot fired in the war, 30 hours
before the formal declaration.
Forty-six cities of France helped
raise the funds for the monument.
