Anthony Rousch Mills is dead, age seventy-seven, at Sundance, Wyom ing, and is probably in heaven now talking with Lnhire, that famous French bear fighter of centuries ago. Thirty-eight years ago Mills, turn ing a sharp corner in the Black Hil’s, s face to face with a silver tipped grizzly that knocked his gun out of his hand, bit off his nose, seized him by the calf of the leg and dragg ed him -along the trial. Rousch pull- d his knife, stopped the bear's flight by holding on to a tree, and cutting its jugular vein, killed the bear. It was a good bear fight. OM Lahire’s fight is made mem orable by this first prayer that Lahire had ever uttered: “Lord I do not nsk you to help Lahire. I only ask you not to help this bear."

Holliman of The G. S. C. W. Journalism Claea “A study of political parties,” said Lord Bryce “is as necessary as a study of the Constitution." Political parties set in motion the very process of government, formulate policies, nominate and elect presidents, and mold public opinion. The framers of the United States Constitution did not wish so great power to be in the hands of political So < into two major parties and the issues at t*akc were settled for the time being by the party in power. By 1816, a new condition had aris en. The National Republicans then advocated the very principles of their opponents, whose organization had ceased to exist. In their place the Democrats had arisen who upheld in general principles of former Repub licans. The newly-named party fol lowers were found largely in the South and West. Big business inter ests in the northeastern part of the United States found it to their ad vantage to uphold the National Re publican Party. The parties thus had b.come partly sectional in their con stituency. Then in 1832, Jackson, a son of strong convictions, caused a split in both parties. The Whigs, heirs of the Federalists’ tradition* arose as opponents of Jackson. They remain ed in power largely because their candidates were popular war heroes. Following closely upon this group ing of Whigs against Democrats, cnm c the War Between the States in 1865. The Democrats were prostrate. The new Republican party, originat ing among the supporters of the Kan sas Nebraska Bill was a fusion of the anti-slavery elements with the Free-Soilers. As long as the government has many positions to be filled by popu lar vote, as long as legislative and executive departments are separate, as long as Americans are given to as- ■oeiationy, just that long will poli tical parties fill a vital need American Democracy.
