AGAINST The Change
CLAIM PIG CASES CAN HAVE FAIR
HEARING IN BURLElGH
COUNTY,.
Sheriff McGiIIis Denies Charges Of
Attorney General Miller Regarding
Connection With Liquor interests. :.

A number of affidavits pro and con
have been filed in the district court
III connection with the application
of Attorney General Miller for a
change of venue from Burleigh county
and the Sixth judicial district, with
the possible exception of Mclean
county, in the cases against James
Myers, Joe. Higgens and Sheriff Nc
Gillis.
The original application Of Attorney
General Miller was accompanied by
an affidavit that it was impossible for
the state to obtain a fair trial in a
case of this kind in Burleigh county.
and with reference to the cases
against James Myers and Joe Higgins
it was stated that the sentiment Of
the people Of the county was against
the Enforcement of the prohibition
law, and that conviction under the
law could not be obtained. It was
also stated that D. J. McGillis, the
sheriff, and e. G. Patterson, chairman
of the board Of county commissioners,
exercised such political influence that
1t would be impossible for the state
to obtain a fair trial in the McGillis
case.
Attorneys Newton and Dullam ap-
pear for McGillis, who resists the ap-
plication to take the trial of the case
out of the county Mr.. Dullam has
filed an affidavit that he believes the
state can haveea fair trial Of liquor
cases in the county and he cites the
fact that three convictions out of four
at this term" of court for illegal sale
of liquors in support of his statement.
He also states that the statement with
regard to the political influence of E.
G. Patterson is exaggerated, and in
support Of this statement cites the
fact that Mr.. Patterson has been twice
defeated for office within the past two
or three years. Mr.. Patterson also
files an afadavit denying the state
ments of the attorney general as to
his connection with the illegal sale
of intoxicating liquors, and denies that
he is unduly Influenced politically,
in view Of the fact that
he. has been twice defeated for Office
within the past two or three years.
Mr.. McGillis also files an affidavit
denying the statements with. refer
ence to his connection with the sale
of liquor, and to his political influence.
The several aff1davits are before Judge
Winchester in connection with the
application Of the attorney general for
a change of Judge and change of place
of trial.

crease In the number Of squirrels has
been detected on these forests where
collecting has been carried on for a
number Of years In succession.
These facts all 60 to show that the
collecting OF seed from squirrel
hordes is not actually as cruel as it
seems at first thought and If it did
work q hardship on the little animals,
It would be choice between the per-

MORE LATITUDE
FOR INDIANS
AGENT M'FATRIDGE GAVE
NEW RULING YESTERDAY
Indians Capable OF Handling Own FL
nancial Affairs May do so-Spend-
thrifts VIII be Held in Check as In
the Past-Order Made at Agents
Request.

Largely through the efforts of Ma
jor A. E. McMatridge, agent upon the
reservation, the government will
henceforth allow Indians much more
latitude in the handling Of their fl
nancial affairs. Within short time
the sum Of $4,000 now held in trust
for the Indians will be paid them and
this money they may use as they see
fit.
At the joint conference with the
Indians and a delegation of business
men. held at the agency yesterday
afternoon. Major McFatridge announc-
ed the departments new ruling and
also admonished the Indians TO be
careful in the exercise of their new
powers.
In a speech which was interpreted
TO the Indians by Joe Craig and Leo
Sampson the agent told the Indians
that those who squandered their mon
ey would be placed in the incompe-
tent class and would then receive only
enough money to secure the necessi-
ties of life. He especially warned the
tribesmen against the evils of fire
water"
The business men Of the city were
also asked to aid the government in
the experiment by treating the In
dians fairly
Order From Valentine.
The ruling just made is the direct
outgrowth of Agent McFatridge's trip
to Washington some time ago. While
before the bureau of Indian affairs
Major McFatridge argued in favor OF
the new system which has long been
asked for by local Indians and also
by business men.
The following is the order from Mr..
Valentine:
Washington, April 9.-Arthur E.
McFatridge, Esq, Superintendent
Umatilla Indian School. Pendleton,
Ore.-Sir: Hereafter when in your
opinion an Indian is competent to
manage his own affairs, and such In
dian has funds deposited to his indi-
vidual credit, over which the govern
ment exercises control as trustee,
you are authorized 10 turn SuCH lullus
over 10 the Indian owner, and this
letter is your authority for so doing.
In order to accomplish this you are
directed to have each Indian draw a
check to the order of the cashier Of
the bank, to be countersigned by you
in the regular way, which check will
serve as voucher TO your accounts.
When the checks are received at the
bank the present accounts of the In
dians should be closed and new ac-
counts opened with them, which will |
not be subject to the usual restriction |
regulations. Each regular designated |
depository in which you have placed |
trust funds belonging to the Indians
should be furnished with a copy of
this letter for its information.
You will be expected to confer with
the Indians and advise them that the
office, in pursuing the course herein
indicated, believes that it will be for
their best interests. 1t will be your
duty to counsel Indians in all matters
pertaining to their individual accounts

and to impress on them the benefits
that will accrue to each depositor,
both financially and morally, from a
conservative use of the funds the gov
ernment has placed at their disposal
When, however, an Indian has been
given fair chance to show his ability
to properly care for and manage his
affairs, and the superintendent is con-
vinced that such Indian does not
measure up to the standard which in
his opinion would be for the best in
terest and protection of such Indian,
the superintendent is hereby author
lied to place the Indian in the incom-
petent class, and thereafter his funds
will be distributed under governmental
supervision. 1t will be seen from
what is said that the office is desirous
OF giving greater number of Umatilla
Indians a chance to handle their own
affairs-to give them the same oppor-
tunity enjoyed by their white breth-
rem
Finally, I will be pleased to have
you inform the Indians that you, as
superintendent, have been largely in
strumental in procuring the necessary
action, which will lead to the removal
Of restrictions from the individual ac-
counts now in bank to their several
credits, and that after careful consid-
GRAFTON the procedure herein indicated
will be carried out for the advance
ment of their general and individual
welfare.
A last word Of caution. This is an
experiment Of the greatest value to
the service at large. Failure in it will
de irremedlable damage; success, un-
ending good. Go slow and succeed

him TO a doctor and tried half dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no Improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part Of his body was quite raw.
We had TO strap him down in bed, for
he used TO tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor, very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
only hope was that he might, il he
lived long enough, outgrow il 10 some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one Of
the worst cases, il not the worst, ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
At one hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed TO aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
badly that no one liked 30 90 near him
and his life was a burden 10 him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy, but
we had got almost past hoping for a
cure. Six months ago we purchased
q set Of CUticura Soap, Ointment, and
ResOlvent Pills and persevered with
them. The result was truly marvellous
and to-day he is perfectly cured, his skin
not having a blemish on IL anywhere.
