MAN’S LAND Backward fellows who can’t reconcile them-| selves to the new political order of equal suffrage, may find some consolation in the thought that America is the only continent not named after a woman. Until the discovery of cofitinental America by Americus Vespucius all the honors ‘in the chris- fore it occurred to Waldseemieller, a sixteenth be given a show in the naming of the newest continent. ‘ iia He was not merely-mouthed in expressing him. self on the subject. In his book, “Cosmographic Introductio,” printed in 1507, he wrote thus: “tT do not see why any one should rightly object to calling it Amerigo or America, i. e., land.of Amer- icus, after its discoverer, a man of sagacious mind —since Europe, Asia and Africa are named after women.” Waldseemueller’s suggestion was accepted. by the geographers and so the land*that: Columbus had discovered was named after another, because to his dying day Columbus himself did not know merely blazed a new trail to'the East Indies.

D.,’May 21—Ashley Island in the Missouri river a short distance above here, the site selected by the engineers for the proposed state owned -hydro-elestric plant, on which citizens of thé state’ will vote at the November ‘election in 1922, has been a point of unique: interest in ; South Dakota history for’ nearly a. century. Here on the morning of June 2, 1823 occurred. the first act of Christian worship of which there fs a record in this region. It was the notable prayer over the ,dead.and dying of-Ashley's little band who.fell in the Ree massacre of that | morning,—a prayer so appealing that jeven rough old Hugh Glass, one of {the most notable rough characters of Dakota’s early history, noted that “it |'was a powerful prayer and moved us j all greatly.” This island first appears upon the maps of Lewis and Clark, who reach- ed it on October 8, 1804. They called it “Island au Brim,” possibly because loved although he was a policeman. ~ EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reproduced in thia column may or may not express the sjinion of The Tribune. ere prenented Bere ln ea thas: our fenvlers wer. bave les Important tasues which are ing Gis- cussed in the press of the day ea .
