Paul Arr says Of fruit that it is the

Eating fruit will cure the worst case
OF mebriety that ever afflicted a per-

man or woman who liked fruit and
VINO had an appetite for drink. No

Indians Are starving.

ROSEBUD, Mont. Dec. 21.-Reli.
able information comes here through
an employee of the United States In.
dian department stationed at Tongue
River agercy, Lame Deer, that the
Northern C%heyennes are in a starving
condition. Commissioner of Indian
Affairs Jones, on the advice of United
States Indian Agent j.. c. Clifford,
ordered that no food be issued to the
Indians except the very young, the
aged and the infirm, basing his adj
vice on the theory that they were self
sustaining. The Northern Cheyennes
are willing workers, but as the row..
eminent failed to give them work and
as the white settlers can only give
them work in haylng time, it is appar-
ent how they can be in their present
sad condition. Complaints are COM
ing in that they are depreda ting on the
cattle herds in the vicinity of the res
ervation, and active measures should
be taken to remedy their condition.
G.. +. Nesler, United States Indian
inspector, who has spent several
weeks on the reservation, hearing
complaints OF agency employees, sell.
ers and Indians, has returned to
Washington to lay before the secre-
tary of the interior charges of a seri-
Gus nature against Agent Clifford
which, If proven, will show the pres
ent agent Is wholly unfit to manage
the agency of the Cheyennes.
