INDIAN ASKS NO AID.
He Is Now Able to support Himself
by Working.

According TO officials of the Interior
Department, the Indian is giving u bet
ter account of himself now than he did
q few years ago. Formerly he accepted
the rations the government provided II
spent his days in idleness and in riotous
living. Now he works, makes money
and pays his own way. IT the govern
ment will not give him work, he looks
for it elGewhere-on u railroad. or in
building r%oadways. where he makes fair
wages. He will not be dependent on Tn
Gle Sam any longer than is necessary.
."The Indian is improving" said Com
missioner Jones. OF the Indian bureau.
An Indication Of his Willingness TO work
Is found in the fact that the govern
ment il abolishing the practice OF serving
rations or some Of the reservations. Sew
eral old treaties providing that the In
dams must be supplied with rations are
expiring. aud they viii not be renewed.
"A large Na.nher Of Sioux Indians in
North Dakota have just decided that
they would rather work and support
themselves. They find employment on
work the government is doing on the rec.
ervatiorls. such as road building and the
construction Of water tanks for irrigation

this kind for them they get jobs as sec
ton heu,.s on the railroads. An agent
has just reported that about 800 Maya
joes are at work on the Santa Fe, in
New Mexico, and that superintendent
who employ them say they do far better
work than the Mexicans. VINO were for
merly employed almost exclusively on
that kind Of work. Another agent has re
ported that 100 Indians from the Stand
Ing Rock agency nave been employed for
railroad work In North Dakota. The
government encourages them 70 80 to
work. They make fair wages and be-
come independent and more seif-respect
ing than they did under the former CON
ditions. OF course. all Of the Indians
are not going to work. Some of them a1e
receiving the interest on their tribal
funds, and never do q days work from
one years end TO another, but the In
dians. as a rHle, seem TO aspire to ON
thing better than eating and loahns."
