LOGGING on CEDED LANDS
Indians on Chippewa Reservation
Are Paid More Than Whites
Recommend an INSPECTOR.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1e.-special Agents
Parke and Schwartz Of the general land Of
fice, who have been investigating the logging
Of the dead and down timber on the ceded
lands of the Chippewa reservation in Min
nesota, have presented their report to Com
missioner Hermann.
They say that the charge that the logging
interests on the Leech lake reservation were
the cause Of the late war can be denied
They say the loggers are Indians, who get
81 per day, while the whites only get $1S a
month. At the last settlement 81 per cent
Of their labor bill was paid and more will
be, and that the $4,000 and upwards earned
by these Indian laborers last winter is
worth more to them, the tribe and the gov
ernment than the value Of all the logs cut.
The foremen complain that the Indian
labor is unsatisfactory. The agents report
that in many cases the Indians receive re-
ward for use Of their names to secure log
ging permits, suggest that this leaves the
door open to fraud and recommend placing
a government inspector to control the labor
and supply charges. and proper rules.

civilization as do temperate climates. They

not necessity as with people who have
six months OF cold weather to contend with.
All the edicts Of kings and projects of

such as the Philippines and the Sandwich

in spite Of all England's 'benefcent" means
OF governing through her army and navy is
going to pieces.
The expansion Of this nation in the past,
except as to Alaska, has been over territory
contiguous. whereas the Philippines are
thousands OF miles across the Pacific. As
the growth Of this country extended beyond
the Mississippi and the Pacific coast was
populated in the rush for gofd and the gap
between was settled UP partly due to the
civil war, no such problem was presented as
would be in the Philippines with its 1900
islands and it's eighty different races OF peo-
pie, all speaking a different tongue and none
Of them in sympathy with American institu-
tions.

iculed the participation of this government
In the Samoan tripartite arrangement of
ten years ago, which had resulted in Lawyer
Osborne Of Blair being sent there as one OF
the pro-consus. Lauren Thurston OF Ha-
wall had admitted to him once that with
only 10000 whites in the Sandwich islands
and 10000 Kanakas, Japs and Chinese 1t
would not do TO leave the matter Of annexa-
ton to any majority rule there. Thus the
fundamental idea Of equality was being un-
dermined. The Recommendation of the
Hawaiian commission came In for some crit
icism In this connection and, finally, joke
of Admiral Schley at the Gridiron club gath
ering on the Englishman who Dragged about
the sun never setting on British dominions"
served to clinch his argument. An Amer
lean gave the Britsher a reason why the sun
does not set on English soil. 1t was "be-
cause the Lord wilf not trust an Englishman
in the dark" Mr.. Rosewater believed Great
Britain a little too anxious to see America
mixed up In Asiatic matters.
