REPEAL DEAD AND DOWN ACT.
Agent jenkins, of the Interior De-
partment, Discusses the QuestiOn.

James E. jenkins, special agent for the
interior department., passed through the
city yesterday on his sway ito the 3Leech
lake and Blue Earth reservations to make
a payment to the ChippeYas, AT the for
mer place he wifi wind up the accounts
of the government with the loggers who
cut timber on the reservation during 1898
under the much discussed dead and
down" act
Discussing Indian affairs Mr. Jenkins
said: Congress will undoubtedly repeal
the dead and down act and substitute in
It's place combination of the Menomonie
and La POinte systems of logging Indian
lands. At one of the Northern Wiscon-
sin reservations last spring the Indians,
under this system, cut and hauled 20, Co.,
OOO feet Of logs, for which the agent re-
celVed at the sale $15.0S per thousand
This is about the best figure that has
been paid for logs in the Northwest. I'm
der this system logs bring better prices,
as 1t is not necessary to drive or haul
them miles to a mill, but the mills are
built right on the land. These mills are
directly under the supervision of the In
dian agent, and the government prescribes
rules and regulations which make the
chances for fraud very small, and, in fact.
almost an impossibility
1t is very desirable that the handling
of the Indian timber be put on a. safe
port to Washington early in the fall and
similar to that just outlined The gov
eminent has advanced about 81, 100000 to
the Chippewa Indians on these reserva-
lions, and unless there is some such sys-
tenn the money will never be paid back.
There appears to be no likelihood that
there will be a general sale Of reservation
pine, such as was proposed a year ago.
The best interests of the Indians will be
conserved by logging the reservations
gradually and systematically, under gov
eminent supervision
No, l do not think there will be an
other outbreak, even If all the standing
pine was sold at a public sale 1 put no
stock in the talk of further trouble with
the Chippewas."
Mr.. Jenkins was asked regarding the
indirect charges made by Indian Commits
s1oner Jones against the United States
marshaPs department, but declined to
discuss the subject.
