Condition of the Leeoh Lake Chippewas.


Condition of the Leech Lake Chippewas.
WAsHNGToN Oct 2S.-Acting Indian Com
missioner Upshur to-day said that he had read
in some Western papers a statement alleged to
be on the authority of Senator Dawes. to the
effect that the Leech Lake Chippewas, of Mime
sofa, in starving condition. This state
ment, said Mr.. Upshur, proves not to be fact,
but prophecy. 1t is true that their small corn
crop has been damaged by frost. and their wild
rice crop nearly ruined by overflow caused by
dams on the Mississippi, but at this season of
year they are not hungry. They have the
products of their little gardens, and just at this
time they always take large catch Of fish and
cure it for winter uses. In the late fall they
generally scatter all over the country on hunt
ing expeditions AS matter of fact, they are
living quite comfortably at the present time;
but in February. when they return to their
homes, their stores will be exhausted, and they
must wait until spring makes fishing practicable.
At that time they will likely need and receive
assistance, in the way Of food, from the govern
ment. To give it now would be mistake. The
owes these Chippewas early reimbursement for
the damage done their rice fields, bnt as
matter of fact he believes these Leech Lake
Chippewas can never comfortably provide for
themselves until they leave their worthless
swampcovered reserve. and remove TO the good
farming lands of the White Earth reservation.
The agent has recently been furnished
with the cash annuity of $10,666 to be paid to
