The NeZ Perces Need a Reuben


The Nez Perces Indians are in need of
a native leader to fill the shoes of Jim
Reuben. No other Nez perces has reached
his plane of general intelligence and
common sense.
The problems Of civilization are crowd
ing upon these people and they are not
keeping pace with their advanced state
The ownership of their homes in sew
crafty and the requirement of individual
action has inspired them with conceit, so
that they repudiate counsel and at the
same time they are unequal to the ocea-
sion when individual action is concerned.
They naturally fall under the influence
of agitators, who are not wanting, and
these agitators are dangerous guides.
The possession of enormous property
interests has thrust commercial problems
upon them before they are qualified to
handle them. They are suspicious of the
white men who come among them &c
conduct commercial enterprises, to lease
their land, and to buy their stock and
borrow their Idle capital.
The railroad companies have beer
forced by the existing conditions to Sc
cure rights of way through lands of these
stubborn aborigines just as they were be
| coming reconciled to the opening of Their
| reservation to settlement and their forceG
association with the white people in more
or less Intimate business relations. They
either refuse to, or are not able, in til,
Absence OF Reuben, to fully grasp tn,
/ principle OF eminent domain. Then the
| leasing Of their lands cause many vexa
tious complications. Local factions i'm
| bibe unbusinesslike notions from aspi
rants for leadership, and they will
sacrifice important interests for thei
! vagaries.
In short the Indians on the reservation
need an other Reuben. Jim Reuben wa
equal to any occasion that ever confront
ed him aud i'll that respect he was an ex
+, ception. HIS powers ofdiscernment wer
remarkable. He was not more honorable
than others but he was intelligent in
wonderful degree.
There Is nothing alarming IN the ex
listing conditions on the reservation bu
an intelligent leader would save til
Indians, as we'll as the white people
sho deal with them world of annoyanc
at this time.

He is only thirty.thres years Of age, and

early as his fourth year he showed un-
m~istakable musical ability, and when ten
