WORK FOR Small / men.
BY SAM WALTER Ross!

Don't hate your neighbOr if his creed
With YOUR own doctrine fails to fit;
The chances that you both are wrong,
You know, are well nigh infinite.
Don t fancy, mid million worlds
That fill the silent dome of night,
The CLEANS of all pure truth converge
Within the focus of your sight;
For this, my friend, is not the work
for you;
So leave all this for smaller men to do.
Don't hate men when their hands are
hard,
And patches make their garments
whole;
A man whose clothes are spick and
May wear big patches on his soul.
Don't hate q man because his coat
Does not conform to fashions art:
A man may wear full-dress suit,
And have a ragamutfin heart.
This, my good friend, is not the work
So leave ali this for smaller men to do.
Hate not the man of narrow scope,
OF sense dull, whose brOws recede,
Whose hearts are embryOs; for you
spring,
My dainty friend, from just this breed
Be sure theyears will lift them up;
They'll toll beneath the patient sky,
And through the vista OF long days
Will all come forward by and by.
Hate not these men; this is no work
for you;
So leave all this for smaller men to do,
Despise not any man that lives,
Alien neighbor, near or far:
Go out beneath the scOrnful stars,
And see how very small you are.
The world is large, and space is high
That sweeps around our little ken:
But there's no space or time to spare
In WHICH to hate our fellowmen,
And this, my friend, is not the work
for you;
Then leave all this for smaller men
to do.
From "Whiffs from Wild Meadows.

Allotment Case Continued Pending the
Taking Of Dispositions,

Wateltown, S. d., July 1.-THE In
dian allotment case being tried ir
Watertown has run against an unex
pected snag. The contestants expect
ed to have several witnesses from the
Crow Creek agency, but when they
were called upon to appear the agent
would not let them leave the reserva.
tion. In this emergency the contest
ants made motion to take their evi.
.dence by disposition, which was grant.
ed, necessjtating continuance of the
hearing.
The testimony expected from the
Grow Creek Indians is to the effect
that Charles Walker, the witness,
was a Sisseton and received the allot-
ments in dispute under the name OF
Ko-zi-pi, and that he is the one in
whose name the allotments now stand.
Minneapolis Journal.
1t is shameful how some of the
United States Indian agents take
advantage to the extreme, of some
of the rulings of the Indian
office. The above clipping is fair
sample.
1t may be right that the Indian
shall not. roam about outside of
his reservation without the per-
NIT of the United States Indian
agent in charge, but where the
presence of an Indian to appear
before tribunal as u witness and
his presence is a necessity, then
the instructions of the Indian Of
flee are carried outside of their
original intent.
Almost in every treaty between
the United States and some tribe
of Indians, an article is inserted
so as to read:
every injury or act of hostility
committed by one or either Of the con-
tracing parties against the other,
shall be mutually forgiven and forgot.
There shall be perpetual peace and
friendship between all the citizens OF
the United States of America and all
the individuals composing the said
tribe, and all the friendly rela-
tiOnO that existed the same
are hereby renewed"
Some men do not know the
meaning of peace and friendship,
and absolutely know nothing of
liberty and happiness.

MUSICALE,

i OIlc VI Ullc k)lcstcduuCoo OCCt'olOd0
of the week took place on Monday
evening in the form of musical
! entertainment given through the
kindness of several residents of
| the Agency at the Indian School
Assembly Hall.
The program, which consisted
entirely of vocal and instrumental
music, went off without hitch, to
the great credit of the performers
and utmost pleasure to the audi
ence.
The vocal solos rendered by
Mrs. w. II. Tobin, Mrs. II. B.
DeCory and Mr.. j. B. Warren
we're sung with all excellence and
ease of an artist. A vocal duet
by Messers Lipps and Herr was
very good indeed considering that
they had had very limited am
cunt Of practice, owing to the fact
that it was not until a very short
time before the concert that they
decided to sing. However the au
dience showed their appreciation
by bringing them back to the
stage third time. Messers
Spratt, Herr, Warren and Lipps
composed a vocal quartette which
gave excellent music and much
pleasure to all, their selections
being both serious and humorous.
An orchestra of seven of White
Earth's best musicians took pro-
minent part in the program and
added to the enjoyment of all who
listened. Last but not least, a
cornet solo by Mr.. j. w. Carl
was climax of the entire concert.
Mr.. Carl is said to be possessed of
remarkable nerve, and he GER
tainly showed it then ashe ascend
ed the rostrum perfectly uncon-
cerned and played his solo and an
encore as though he was playing
to no one but himself. But he
wasn't. He was playing to a
goodly audience of White Earth's
best people who enjoyed the mu-
sic and departed feeling that they
had spent the evening very profit
ably indeed.
After the entertainment Supt.
Lipps very kindly allowed a dance
in which the performers and audi
ence joined in having an hour of
fun before leaving. When it fin
ally broke up the dancers depart
ed feeling very thankful to all
concerned for the evening spent.
1t is the sincere wish of the
ToMAHAwK that more of these
social functions and pleasant enter
tainments will take place. With
out doubt they would increase the
welfare and happines and insure
the domestic tranquility of White
Earth and it's people.

a cipch on the miracle of the loaves

Blessed are the 1ickers in the

Blessed are the drones and the

majority.
Blessed is she who is given her
first appointment at Colorado
River Agency for she will never
be discontinued anywhere there'
after.
Blessed are those who prefer
charges and demand investigations
for they pose and strut and are
praised of Satan, and have coolies
of fun for little season.
Blessed is the matron who will
not mate for she knoweth the
science of child culture better than
anybody, and giveth valuable
pointers to those ignorant mothers
who knowctla little save h at
learned in the school of experience.
Blessed is he who owneth in fee
simple a handful of Congressman
and, pcrchnce, Senator or two4
for verify he waxcth mighty in his
own conceit, and he draweth big
dividends from his investment.
Blessed are those who are full
of sickness and who feeleth the
tickle of the festive microbe, for
sooner or later they are transferred
to Riverside or Phoenix, and arc
called ''lungers.'
Blessed are the pure in heart for
they are the loyal and the con-
sciencious ones, and at the Judge.
ment they will sit at the right
hand of God, the crowns of price

-Chilocco Farm and Stock
Grower.
OF all the magazines published
in the u. S. Indian school service,
it is without question that the
magazine from the Chilocco School,
Okla, is at the head.
The mechanical work is excellent
and attractive, it's contents are ex-
pressions of truth and are of
commendable devotion to the in
terests of all concerned and espe-
cially to those who devote their
lives to the education and civili-
zation of the Indian.
THE ToMAHAwK has from time
to time commented on the situa-
ton and treatment of the schools
for the Indian youth, and is there
fore, not unfamiliar with the many
grievances and wrongs, which the
heads of the various Indian insti-
buttons have to contend with, ow-
ing to one or two of the employees
who are irksome, and it is right
here that The ToMAHAwK heartily
commends the spirit exhibited IN
the ''Chilocco Farmer and Stock
Grower" by S. M. MCGOWAN,
superintendent of the Chilocco
Indian Industrial School, who tends
to encourage harmony and to pro-
mote the broadcast liberty, peace
and happiness.
Blessed is the man that walketh
in the counsel of his goodly con-
science and listeneth not to those
who spendeth their time in vile
criticisms and who are never salts
fed of their surroundings, but
babbleth, tattleth and seeketh
paths that lure the innocent into

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-Trading on the
Board of Trade was rather dull today,
but after an easy day, closed strong,
with May a fraction lower. May corn
was also shade lower, while oats
were unchanged. Provisions were dull
and closed steady, with May products
from LIE to sc lower.
wheat was dull and prices were con-
lined within narrow range. The fea-
ture Of the day was the selling of July
and buying of commission houses sup
posed to have been acting for the lead
weak cables and favorable throughout
the winter wheat belt, May being LAO
3-8c to 1-2@5-8c lower at TIC to " lac.
There was some selling early by dis
couraged longs at Tic, the low point,
but later a better support developed on
buying by commission houses and COW
ering by shorts, and the market be-
came quite strong, May selling up to
~ 3-4c. The close was firm, with May
shade lower, at II 1-2c. A fair ex-
port demand was a Strengthening fea-
ture later in the day. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to $4,000
bu. Private receipts were $4,000 blu,
compared with 100000 year ago. Min
neapolis and Duluth reported receipts
of 329 cars, which, with local receipts of
% cars-none of contract grade-made
total receipts for the three points of
S52 cars, against 444 cars last week,
and 1928 cars year ago.
Nothing InfIammatory in Corn.
Corn was quiet, and after little
weakness on the early depression in
wheat f1rmer feeling developed the
offerings being light. A good cash de-
mand, together with no Improvement
IN the ear situation, were bull factors.
Inc principal buying was by commits
sion houses. The close was firm, with
May shade lower at A 3-4@44 Use,
after selling between A 1904 $40
and 45c . Local receipts were 236 cars,
with none of contract grade.
Oats were also neglected, but in the
absence of any selling pressure, the
prices ruled firm. Cash demand con-
t1nued good and receipts were rather
light, 215 cars being received here. The
close was steady, with May unchanged
at 80 lac, after ranging between So Is
OBS lac and SO 3-Sc.
Provisions were dull and prices held
barely steady. There was no important
trade either one way or the other. Late
IN the day a sharp break occurred in
the price of January pork, which yes
terday sold at $40, the support hereto
fore given that commodity by a leading
interest having been Withdrawn and a
drop to s16.40 took place, with the
close at the low point. The decline in
January lard was also heavy, amount
ing to AZ Lee. May pork closed 2 1-2c
lower at 1882 1-2; May lard was off
SC at 1897 IL, while ribs were down
1-2@5c at 1912 IL

MINI EAPOLIS.

Minneapolis-Th week and the month
came to an end in the wheat market with
a pretty sick crowd OF bulls in the pit.
Surprised and disappointed at the &C
ton of the market early in the week,
they held on doggedly from day to day.
and at the close were still confident that
wheat will eventually sell higher than
ever, Notwithstanding the May figure was
3A@4c down from the recent high point,
when May sold yesterday at 1910 A 4c
break is a pretty good break in wheat
at any time and these who stood through
the decline as consistent bulls are not
inclined to turn bearish now at all. There
is a general impression that some Of the
big Minneapolis houses who were guiding
on Armour and following his moves in
the Chicago Pit were sol left on n, the down
been reached, and before they could I'M
load their lines to advantage the market
was off almost &c. Having failed to get
out on the higher level they have stood
pat and there is little doubt that there
are big lots Of long wheat held by Mime
apolis men who bought some of ii above
the present prices. But the violent de-
clines have forced out smaller holders,
and these long holdings here are in no
sense a weakening influence, but quite the
contrary, since the wheat IS held by large
houses which can carry it a long time
If necessary. stt
The bulls claim there is danger that the
price will be driven too low. The enthusi-
astic bulls claim 1t has already gone too
far, and that those who are influenced to
commit themselves to the short side now
tnat everything DroaIheS depression and
the news is bearish, may have to run for
protection later on. There is one thing
that must not be overlooked In an anafy-
sis of the present market, and that is
tha magic of the Armour name. No soon
er was it generally reported than there
vas rush to buy by people who ordi-
narily are not interested In wheat Talk
of a corner in May wheat only stimulated
this speculative interest and when the
downturn began there were a great many
little longs who made haste to sell and
this has been going on ever since, more
of them getting disguised and selling out
from time to time Naturally the mar
ket has been quick to decline, but it Is
fair to assume that there are not many
weak holders left, while on the short side
there are some considerable lines now
outstanding.
Near the close the market was firmer.

at 1855 6D75s4c for May and 76Ac for July.
There was a fair trade in cash wheat
with the unsatisfactory car situation still
left. No important change was noted, the
general tone being a shade easier.
