REDSKINS DEMoRALIzED.
Too Many South Dakota Murder sus
poets Are Being Acquitted.


Sioux Falls, s. d., Jan. 3.-The ac-
uuittal a few days ago OF Sisseton
Sioux Indian who was charged with
murder calls attention to the serious
problem which confronts those who
are in charge OF the AFFAIRS OF these
Indians, due to the decentralization
which has resulted from many of the
Indians being afflicted with an over
towering desire for strong drink.
Since the year 1892 five murders
have been committed among this tribe
as the result of overindulgence in
liquor. AS these Indians have all TAX
en- their allotments of land, they have
the same standing as white men, and
there is no way, except by moral SUI
aston, to prevent them drinking liquor
TO excess.
The guilty parties in each of the
murder cases were arrested, but the
outcome of their trials also has con.
tributed materially to the demoraliza.
ton of the drinking Indians, as only
one conviction resulted, this being re-
sponsible to a great extent for the
small value placed upon human life
by the drinking and more reckless
members of the tribe.
In four of the murder trials there
were acquittals. In one case, that of
an Indian named Flute, the jury re-
turned a verdict of guilty and the de.
PENDANT now is serving a life term in
the Sioux Falls penitentiary. Had
Flute killed one of his own race it is
probable he, too, would have been &C.
quilted, but it happened that he killed
two white men, and both of them in
one day. One of his victims fled for
his life and was chased half mile by
the liquor-crazed Indian. The muir
derer shot him repeatedly before kill.
ing him.
In the cases of the Indians who
were acquitted as the result of being
tried on the charge of murder, the
evidence appeared to conclusively
prove the guilt of the accused.
1t is the opinion of those who are in
close touch with the situation that il
yet will be necessary to hang some
of the more lawless Indians when they
commit murder before the other reck'
less redskins will have proper re-
gard for human life. 1t is believed that
IL such action is taken in the case OF
the next Sisseton Sioux Indian who
commits murder, the taking of human
life among these Indians will cease for
many years to come, and perhaps for
ever.
