s%*sNsf&Aotr step N y New x-rm O1 In
dian Civilization.
The Iowa tribe Of Indians living in
Kansas and Nebraska have just sent
to Congress a petition asking Co have
their tribal trust funds distributed
pro rata among the members Of the
tribe. and credited 10 the several
shareholders individually ON the
books OF the treasury department.. 20
be distributed for the benefit OF each
individual at the discretion of the sec
rotary Of the interior. the balance. if
any, to be paid to the heirs of each on
his death, according 20 the state laws
governing inheritance.
This n remarkable step forward
Snd probably marks the beginning OF
a new era IN Indian civilization. The
lowaS are progressive tribe. They
hold their lands in severaltv. and are
American citizens. Their petition i
signed by them. not by cross marks.
but with full written signatures. with
the exception Of one man. the only
adult in the tribe who cannot write.

English and are fully cognizant Of the
effect of their course If Congress acts

Almost all Indians are tnnorons
about adopting any forward program
themselves. They hang back and al
low the government 70 drag them in
20 new relations with the whites and
white civilization But the Jowas
have set the pace for a new movement
Of voluntary advance. They DO not
propose that the tribal funds shall be
taken ont Of the treasury and handed
over 10 them. but simply that on the
government books each member OF
the tribe shall have "A seperate bank
account: and that his pro rata share OF
the interest shall be spent by the gov
eminent for his individual benefit in
stead Of for the benefit ~ the tribe as
"a mass
It's hoped that the example set by
the Iovas Viii he followed by other
citizen Indians who hear of II. or who
witness is good effects The Sac and
Fox Indians In the same neighbor-
hood have considered the question OF
sending IN a similar petition. but .hey
are still afraid go venture on wha; they
regard rs SO radical "a change They
are not vet So advanced in the spirit
Of civilization as the Iowas: bat little

Build . Malt House.
Great Falls, June H.-The building of
a malt house by the Montana Brewing
company. q project long held in abey-
ance by various causes. has now be-
son. Joseph Trimborn. the manager
of the brewery. has just returned from
a trip to Chicago and while absent he
placed an order for plans and specin-
cations for the building, n as soon
as these arrive Will proba-
bly, be asked to bid on the construc-
ton. The building will be on he drum
system and h plant will be con-
structed SO as to permit of future en-
largement without great additional
expense. 1t will be of brick and stone,
three stories high, and in style OF
architecture will harmonize with the
brewery proper. Its location will be be-
tween the brewery and the river.

pany to complete their works by the
addition Of a mailing plant from the

steadily increased Its o of bust
ness and is now on a footing which per-
mits the expenditure of honey in this
direction. To the farmers of Cascade
county II means nearly as much as did
the building of the Royal Milling COM
pany's mill and elevator. Agricultural
experts have been urging the ranchers
to SOW barley for the past five years,
but so long as there was no near mar
ket the ranchers naturally could see
no benefit to be derived from its Guilt
walton. SO long as the same laud could
be used p~rofitably for the growth Of
wheat, which on gathering meant
cash. During the spring, however, a
movement vas started at Chinook and
in the Milk river valley for the raising
of barley, the product to be shipped
East. That crop a now come to this
city, and next rear will most likely
raised. not only in Milk river valley,
but in every other of the many fertile
spots of northern Montana.
This year the mailing plant will be
able to use between 1000 and 5000
bushels of barley. But a small portion
ainable in his county, or in this part
of Montana, but most Of it will be
shipped in. Then, IL the experience Of
this new enterprise proves the same as
h a of the Touring plant, the margin
between the home grown supply and
the total supply will be gradually mar
rowed until finally only homegrown
grain will be used. For the past five or
six a the city of Great Falls has
been steadily surrounded by q growing
agricultural community. 1t has been
the center and the principal market
for that community. and the benefit to
the city has been incalculable. Should
no further additions be made to the
manufacturing plants of the city, or
further use be made of the water pow
err, the presence of this self-support-
ing class of producers is sufficient in
itself to guarantee the permanence of
the city's prosperity. The Touring mill

the mailing plant will double that
stimulus.
