The Affirmative Won.
Resolved, That the Government
Should Cease to Support the
Indians"

ScnOOl iSyceum hViu its FekuIdr neet-
inc Wednesday evening and among
other things discussed the question:
Resolved, That the government should
cease to support the Indians"
As Oacoma is located on the great
Sioux reservation and is in the vicinity
Of several Indian reservations, the
question attracted large crowd. The
subject was admirably handled by all
the debatants and the auditors we're
deeply interested and about evenly di-
yided as to the result, when the presi-
dent called for the summary of the
Affirmative.
The affirmative was handled by three
Of the high school girls, who, when the
summary was called for gravely ad
vanced to the rostIum together and
sung the following original song, to
the tune of "The Red, White and Blue"
1t is needless to say that the atfirma-
tive won unanimously:
ISSUE DAY THE DAY OF DEVOTION.
Issue day is the day of devotion,
In the home of the brave Sioux, Il. D.
lis the shrine of each squaw's greedy
notion;
All the tribe renders homage to thee
At thy orders paIooses assemble,
When the beef, fresh and steaming s
in view;
Their greed makes the bystanders trem-
BILE,
As the smoking raw liver they chew.
As the smoking raw liver they chew,
As the smoking raw liver they chew,
Their antics make white people tremble,
As raw liver and entrails they chew.
When offered tho whole reservation,
II he'd take it aud make il farm,
Says "Wan Nich,""I want no location,
Uncle Sans wauke-pomeny's my
charm"
With her blanket hung loosly about
her
And the jerked beef hung over the

His squaw standing proudly beside him,
Says "Wash-ta, we think this way
will do,
Wasn-ta, we thinl. this way will do,
They never will be any better
While they think, "washta, this will
do"
With cigarette odor about him,
With his moccasins turned at the toe,
With no thought for tom orrow's pro
vision,
This smoke-colored "Iniun's" Joe.

Aud eat of his own supper, too,
Aud then well have hopes of this sin
Becoming citizen true.
rnen he'll yell for the red, white and
blue,
Aud he'll vote for Mckinley or Bry-
an:
We don't care for which one, do you?
His tepee is warmed like a smoke house,
His pappoose is the shade of smoked
ham,
And it's something that ne'er has been
equaled,
The way that he works Uncle Sam.
Ia the census he counts himself dou-
BILE,
And his squaws never counts less
than two.
His papooses make small army,
On this count he draws rations clear
through.
That he works Uncle Sans nothing

You might think that he'd miss one
or two;
When the agent comes round he counts
noses

Yes, Columbia's the gem of the ocean,
The home of the brave and the free,
But her Injun is no sleeping potion,
