Office is finding it difficult to preven Mt
the sale Of liquor to the Indians The
most difficult problem has been pre-
sented in recent court decisions, IN
which it is declared that Indians who
have taken their lands in several
tv are citizens of the United
States and that it IS no long
er contrary to law to sell liquor
to them. Two or three decisions
have already been made to that effect
and the notice of Judge Egerton of
of South Dakota to the United States
grand jury to present no more in
dictments against persons selling
liquor to Indians on allotted lands
looks as if the courts were going to
take the view of the case that no re-
strictions should be placed on Indian
citizens. In reports submitted by va
rious Indian agents to the commits
sioner of Indian affairs the fact is
pointed out that it IS being difficult
to prevent the sale of liquor to In
dams. Not only on account of the
fact that the courts have recognized
Indians having taken allotments as
citizens, but for other causes
