statement to the public, which was
given to the newspaper correspondents

To the Public The Chippewa Pil1agers. in
council assembled this day. have unanimously
adopted resolutions expressing their regret of the
occurrences of last week which caused the death
OF some brave men. 1t was an unexDected and
IN some respects an unavoidable affair under ex-
listing circumstances and conditions Like your
Iorefathers when they were finally driven to re-
rights, portion of tribe decided to give up
thelr lives rather than to submit any longer to
such oppression as had been following them
Tor dozen years past. 1t was evident to orr
TRENDS VINO met your soldiers in tie, and to
all Chippewa Indians in Minnesota, that the final
outcome or the resistance to the authority of the
United States would be the total destruction and
ahnlnllatlon OF the Chippewa tribe. Our friends,
the Bear Island Chppewus, preferred this to
Ilrther persecution and the loss of their inheri-
lance. The timely arrival of our true friend the
commissioner of Indian affairs has cleared away
the darkness that was before u.s.. But we regret
10 near that some of his own people and the news
papers are c1t1cising his policy of dealing with,
u.s. Had he pursued any other course than the
one he has taken the shores of Leech lake would
to-day be crimson with the blood Of our friends
and relatives at Black Ouch point, and many of
F
among the dead. Your friends among the Chip
pewas OF Minnesota do not wish any Of their
young men to become involved in any further
trouble with your soldiers, and while the Bear
Island Indians have pronounced their death SEN
fences, we humbly sue in their behalf for peace.
We are aware of the greatness and power of the
great father at Washington, but we beg him to
\ treat with leniency friends who have. In
Z tne1r extreme Ignorance, committed such a grave
mistake, and we ask our friends among the
whites to urge him to do this. Although the
provocation was great, we the undersigned chiefs
OF Leech lake do not approve the methods
adopted by some of our friends to right our
wrongs and at our urgent request and the re-
. quest of the commissioner Of Indian affairs and
good man Father Aloysius they have laid dowa
their arms and war clubs. We have the utmost
confidence in the commissioner of Indian affairs
+ and we trust our white friends will allow him
TO proceed unmolested in his efforts to settle ex-
listing difficulties and that they will also have
patience with us in our efforts to induce our
friends and relatives to surrender themselves to

An eminent authority says we ought
ito have standing army Of one hun
Idred and fifty thousand men. That
would be imperialism indeed. What
ever the peace results Of this war, It
would be a misfortune to have that
expensive show and parade fastened
upon us year by year. There is no ne
,cessity for it, and it smacks too much
Iof the foreign systems which ignore
the taxpayer in behalf of the soldier.
We can get up larger army within
brief space of time than any other ma
ton, and the delays Of discipline and
Organization would be less expensive
and destructive than continual army
tax and an utterly useless display of
military power.

Since the ideal of one generation is

twenty thousand teachers gathered at
the recent convention in Washington,
even the most irresponsible exerts a
profound influence upon our future cit

Mrs. Mary A. Livermore with ques-

said, gravely: well, grandmamma,

old teacher of primary school makes
comment UPON the character and in
