Lawrence, Mimi, Dec. 15.-Wah-we-
yay-cum-ig, chief of the Mile Laos band
of Indians left on Saturday for the White
Earth Indian reservation, where he will
take up an allotment with his family.
He was accompanied by Mr. Porter OF
the government service at White Earth.
Wahw -yay cum-ig Is the first head
of a family that has acted In conformity
with the terms of the treaty that Major
Mclaughlin made with the Indians at
Lawrence in tie fall Of 1902 providing
for the removal Of all the Indians to the
White Earth reservation.
The Indians have secretly felt for some
time that it would be for their best In
terests to take up allotments a. White
Earth and relinquish all claims ID this,
their old reservation, but their stubborn
race pride has until now resisted IA over
lures made by the government.
The departure of Wah-we-yay- cum-lg,
it is felt by the old settlers hero, Is the
entering wedge that will finally result
in the complete evacuation OF Mile Laos
lake by the last remnant of the Ojibways.
Already several families have sisnitled
tlieir willingness to leave in the spring,
and ask only the winter in which to wind
up their affairs at the lake. The prom
ised departure Of the Indians Is a source
Of JOY to the settlers around the lake.

insurance companies in regard to the anti
compact insurance law of the last legis
lative session. isfs. :.
After their frs" defeat in the United

the suit threatened to withdraw from the
state but instead attempted to reopen
the case thru the assistance of a state
mutual company at Mitchell. In this they
were again defeated, and they now de-
clare their intention of carrying the mat
ter to the United States supreme court
AS the fire companies operating in the
state cleared over 40 per cent of net
profit on their premiums last year, they
could afford to operate in the state even
at Slight reduction, which might be
brought about by prohibiting agreements
on rates, and their threats to withdraw
are not taken at all seriously, and even
II carried out would only give the field
TO FEWER companies and increase the BUSH
ness Of those which stayed.
An appeal from the rulings of Judge
Garland may be taken, to tie the matter
up but 1t Is believed by Insurance Com
missioner Perkins that Judge Garland
will be sustained, even if an appeal is
taken. His view that the companies must
abide by the laws of the state if thew
intend to carry on business, with the
option OF withdrawing If they are not
satlsf1ed, Is believed to be sound doctrine.
