GERONIMO ON HIS RACE.
He Speaks on the Minnesota Uprising and
 the Future of the Indian.

Here are words of wisdom from the blanSeted savage. At Omaha Geroni- mo. the Apache chief. was asked his views on the recent Indian uprising in Minnesota and replied as follows:
 The sun rises and shines for while and then it goes down. sinking out Of sight. and it is lost. So it will be with the Indians. When was by my father told me that the Indians were as many as the leaves on the trees. and that of in the north they had many horses and furs. l never saw them, but 1 know that they were there then: they have gone now, and the white man has taken all. It will only be few years more and the Indians will he heard oi no more. except in the books that the white man has written. They are not the people that the Great Father loves. for if they We're he would pro tect them. They have tried to please him, but they do not know how.
 schools are good things for Indians. but il takes many years to chang. the nature of the Indian. if an Indian boy goes 10 school and learns to be like a white boy, he comes back to the agency and there is nothing for him to do but 10 pct on a blanket and be like an Indian again. This is where the government is to blame. When it takes our children away and educates them, it should give them something to do. not turn them loose to run wild upon the agency. Until that time comes. educating the Indian is throw ing money away. What can an edu- cated Indian do out in the sage brush and cactus? There will be no more big Indian wars. The Indians fighting days are over, and there is nothing left for him to do but be beggar and live an charity around the agency"

State Chemist Finds Boracic

list Wallace today completed an analysis
of samples of milk secured by Dairy
Commissioner Mcclure in different parts
of the State. The analysis shows manv
instances where p-reservatives are put in
the milk to keep it sweet. In some cases
boracic acid is used and in others salicylfc
acid. The Dairy Commissioner has noti-
fed the offending persons that the use of
these personalities must cease or pros
ecution will follow. Chemist Wallace
says that the use of these personalities
is injurious, particularly to sinai chill
dren, whose stomachs would be disar-
ranged by their taking milk into which
these acids are put. The conservatives
are not likely to do any harm to grown
people unless they are put into the milk
in much greater quantities than is act
ually necessary to accomplish the Dur-
pose for which they are used.
Dairy Commissioner Mcguire said this
morning that he would submit the re-
suit of Chemist Wallace's analysis to the
State Board of Health and ask that body
to rule that the use of these Dreserva-
tives in violation of the law against food
authorizations in this State. With that
ruling obtained he intends to move Wig
orously against those who use these pre-
servatives in milk or any other article of
food.
