STORY UNTRUE
Major Scott Denies Story to thu
Effect That Walker Indians
Are Restless.

Regarding a story recently
published in Twin City paper
to the effect that Indians on the
Leech Lake reservation we're
restless as result Of the forest
reserve proposition, Major Scott
has given out the following:
''The entire article is untrue
and misleading. [ have made no
report to Washington on this
subject. If do, it will be just
the reverse of the statements
made in the article. The Indians
are not restless, neither are they
petitioning to have the forest
reserve set aside. They know
they know that the government
will pay them for the timber left
on the forestry reserve, and if
there is anything that an Indian
doesn't want, it is that his land,
or that which he has claimed as
his own, be opened to settlement
"There are no doubt people in
this state, who would like to see
the forestry reserve proposition
abolished, but they are not the
Indians. Townsite boomers and
spectators would more accur-
ately describe the majority of the
knockers. I" Their solicitude
for the Indians welfare is "touch-
ing" in the true meaning of the
word to those who do not know,
and in it's slang significance, to
those who do.
IF the forestry reserve was a
mistake, it can be corrected by
those who made it, but it's
enemies should fight fair and not
work on an old Indian sympathy
dodge overtime again. The
Indians are all right, if the white
Indians will only leave them
alone. They are willing to obey
the laws, and only fair treatment
under the law is expected and
should be accorded them. y
