Old Maids Insurance.

A comparative novelty in the line of
insurance prevails in Denmark, in
which country if a tum approximating
5000 is deposited with an insuring
company on behalf of a girl at birth
she becomes entitled, if unmarried at
thirty years of age, to receive an an
nuity of nearly $25, which is increased
by $25 every ten years. In case she
marries before the age Of thirty the
original amount deposited is returned
to her. If she dies before attaining
that age there is a provision in the
policy that makes available a sum of
from $50 to $35 toward her funeral
eXpensts.

UNWARRANTED
PROCEEDINGS.

A report from Leech Lake
brings the information that Agent
Scott caused the arrest of William
Lyons, a member of the Missis-
ippi reservation by Indian police,
for the alleged forging of Indian
names to petition which he was
circulating among t h e Indians
against the Morris act.
Lyons, in an affidavit, sets forth
that the arrest was made simply
for the purpose of preventing him
from going to Washington with
the petition, and that the agent,
who favors the act, made threats
against him which lead him to
abandon his purpose OF going to
Washington.
One of the privileges of a people.
guaranteed by law, is the right to
gather together and petition the
government for redress +
wrongs or for any other purpose,
and if Agent Scott has interefered
with this privilege, Lyons should
hold him to accOut.

CHORD FOR CHORD.

Secretary Hitchcock is after Gus
Beaulieu and his ''TOMAHAWK," pub
lished at White Earth, on account o1
his vigorous attack upon the Morris
law, blaming this action of Beaulieu's
to a great extent for the present dis
| affection among the Chippewas. This
! is not the first time that Gus has
made trouble for himself in a news
paper way, for about twelve years age
the government squelched another
journalistic enterprise of his launched
at the same place and likewise
branded nuisance.
Some individuals, like Baalcm' S
ass, never seem to acquire sufii-
cient sense or knowledge to cease
their discordant braying, especial
ly about matters that does not
concern them and of which they
know absolutely nothing. And
! that's what is the matter with the
egotistic charlatans who seem pos
sessed with morbid anxiety Of
airing the insignificant contents
of their rattling pates in the in
diligence of deprecative vituper;,-
tion against the Indian, his friends
and his cause.
If the knowing editor of the
dozen and 1 towns had taken the
pains to have informed himself be-
fore he proceeded with his mud
singing" against the ToMAHAwK
and it's publisher, he would have
discovered that the Progress,
which he alludes to as having been
''squelched,' y was not suppressed.
On the other hand in suit in the
district court of Hennippen Coun-
ty Minn., we beat the Depart
ment and secured judgement
against the then agent of the res
ervation. After this the Progress
continued to do glorious work,
for the Indian (Chippewa), for up
wards of two years and thereby
establishing. beyond question,
that the White Earth reservation
was part of the United States,
that it's people were human beings.

Secretary Hitchcock's Ire.

The secretary of the interior is
hot under the collar, so to speak,
according to Washington special
to the Minneapolis Journal, be-
cause our editorials regarding the
Morris act do not meet with his
views, and for this reason he is
going to suppress the ToMAHAw'K
it is alleged.
For the information Of the sec
retary, we will say that similar
attempt was made in 1886, to sur
press the ''PRoGREss' when we
first entered the field of journal
ism, but the United States circuit
court said nay, and the PROGRESS
was published several years or
until it died a natural death.
We doubt, however, if the sec
retary will repeat such high
handed outrage as to attempt to
suppress a newspaper merely be-
cause it's policy does not suit him,
and also, because of our criticisms
of law that is, in our opinion, an
outrage to the interests of our
people.
We claim to have a sufficient
knowledge of law to keep within
it's pale, and we also know our
rights under it.
Whether the secretary likes it
or not. we will continue to call
public attention to any injustice
which may be done to the Chip
pewa Indians of Minnesota under
the Morris act OF any other law.
This is a privilege granted to
every newspaper by the Constitu-
tion of the United States, and we
| intend to use it whenever we deem
it necessary, and especially when
the Chippewa Indian interests are
concerned.

concerned.

It seems inconsistent with the
liberal republican principles of the
day to believe that the threat of
''suppressing" or ''muzzling'' the
ToMAHAwK and of bringing heap
lots of trouble on the devoted head
of it's publisher should have eman-
ated from SO high an official source
as the Hon. Secretary of the In
terror and, because the ToMAHAwK
ventured to advocate, on rational
grounds, what it thought to be

ATTACK MORRIS LAW.
Indians Will Bring a Test Case Against
interior Department.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Chippewa
Indians now in Washinton, will
enter suit late today or tomorrow
to restrain the secretary of the in
terror from selling timber on the
reserved portion of Leech Lake
reservation. This action on their
part will certainly delay the sale
of timber advertised for December
2S, and it may cause a postpone
ment of all logging operations on
the ceded portions of reserves as
the suit involves the construction
of the whole Morris law.
The particular point made in bill
of complaints is that the Indians
have been deprived of valuable
portion of their land and timber
by the act passed last year without
the consent of the Indians and in
violation of the Nelson act of 1889,
in which the ownership of the In
dians was recognized and to which
they had consented. Other minor
causes for declaring the law in
operative are assigned in the bill.
Minneapolis journal.
The actions of the secretary of
the interior in putting the Morris
act into operation before the In
dians gave their assent to it may
be illegal-at least this has been
our impression, and it is quite
probable that the question of the
validity of the secretary's action
may yet get into the courts.
The Nelson act, which the Nor
ris law amends, provides that two
thirds of the male adult members
of the Chippewa bands of Mime
Iysota to the former act is necessary
before it can become a law. This
provision is still a part of the law,
and the Morris act did not effect
it. In view of this it would seem
necessary that the assent of the
Chippewas to the Morris amend
ments would be necessary before
they become operative, and on
this ground we believe the matter
will be submitted to the United
States courts before any sale Of
timber takes place.

Lumbermen Score In the Mat.

General Land office Sends a Word That
No Hardships Will Be Imposed In the
Matter Of Removing Debris From Coded
Indian Lands When Sold and Cleared.

Washington, Nov. 2O-The con-
test over the question of the re-
quirements to be insisted upon in
connection with the lumber oper-
ations on the ceded lands of the
Chippewa reservation has ended
in decision by Acting Commits
sioner Fimplc of the general land
Office favorable to the contention
of the lumbcrrlrn, and materially
modifying the regulations gov
erning the burning Of debris.
The Importance of this decision
rests in the fact tnat the claim was
made not only by lumbermcn who
are expecting to bid on several
hundred million feet of Indian
timber at the two sales on Dec. 5
and I, are convinced, as are also
the department officials, that by
insisting upon the absolute and
immediate destruction of all ref
such as tops, limbs, stumps and
rejected logs, which result from
the operation of removing the tim
Der, would have the effect to cause
the timber to be sold at probably
an average of - per thousand less
price than it will bring under the
modified regulation.
The claim was made by the lum-
bermen and the experts Of the de-
partment that it would be practi-
cally impossible, without great
expense, to destroy immediately
anything except the smaller ref
use and tops, and that the destruc-
tion of stumps and rejected logs,
if the requirements were for i'm
mediate destruction, would ncceS-
state the using of dynamite and
oil to make complete job OF the
destruction of the trees.
The regulations are in conform
ity with the forestry policy Of the
government, and are intended to
SO completely remove the debris,
following numbering operations,
that there would be less danger
of the spread of forest fires in the
dry season of the f o ] 0 W i n g
autumn.
In his decision rendred to-day
the acting commissioner says that
the removing and burning of ref
use will be reasonably constructed
and literally administered by the
department and no further re-
movals or burnings will be re-
quired than are actually necessary
to prevent forest fires.-St. PAUL

The above article is one of the

PAPER.
Secretary Hitchcock BeIIVes Gus is Stirring
Up the Indians through His Editorials.

| WASHINGTON, Nov. II.
Ethan A. Hitchcock, secretary of
the interior, is very much exer-
cised over editorials attacking the
Morris law in Gus. Beaulieu's S
paper, The ToMAHAwK, published
at White Earth, Mimi, and it is
understood that he has, or will,
seek legal advice Us to whether it's
publication cannot be suppressed.
It was learned from an official of
the interior department today that
the secretary has been consider
ing these editorials in the light of
a special provision of the law
which penalties heavily any one
who attempts to incite the Indians
to rebellion and insurrection.
Beaulieu has great influence
with the Indians and his paper has
b EN- widely circulated among
them. His editorials has been
rather hot in tone, and it is under
stood Secretary Hitchcock believes
they are largely responsible for
the excitement and unrest among
the red men which has been re-
ported by Major Scott, Indian
agent at Leech Lake. Certain
officials Of the department., with
whom the secretary has talked, ARE
of the opinion that he can do moth
ing with Beaulieu or his paper, but
he is determined, SO it is reported.
to get rid of the paper if possible.
