ONE INDIAN DRINKS;
ANOTHER GOES DRY

"Black Hawk" a Chippewa Indian
and citizen of the United States may
drink whiskey to his hearts delight
yellow Thunder" also a Chippe-
wa brave, is refused even a sip. Uncle
Sam has made it crime to sell "Yel-
low Thunder" drink of whiskey. He
is not recognized as a citizen and it
is stipulated in the several Indian
treaties signed between 1850 and
1865 that no spirituous liquors shall
be introduced in the Indian country
until otherwise ordered by congress.
The state of Minnesota has a pop
ulation of 100000, a comparatively
small proportion of which is Indian.
A troublesome and most complicated
condition exists regarding the en-
forcement Of the Indian intercourse
laws in that state. AS the matter
now stands national prohibition laws
exist in that part of Minnesota which
still is Indian country. The Indian
lands cover even the city of Minneap-
oils with a population of nearly 300,-
900, while st. Paul, across the Miss
issippi river, is outside of the Indian
country and exempt from any restric-
tions.
Considerable difficulty is experience
ed by the agents of the department of
the interior in enforcing the prohibit
tlon law in the portions of the dis
tricts where the law may be applied.
Complaints have been made to the
secretary of the interior that the en-
forcement of the law has not been
uniform and general. 1t was alleged
that the officers attempted discrim-
ination, permitting saloons to operate
in one city but closing them in others
Charges were made that certain sa-
looms were allowed to operate in a
town while the ban was placed upon
others in the same place
These charges were productive of
considerable i'll feeling in Minneap-
oils, resulting in the arrest of several
federal officers and much bitter con-
troversy. There are a large number
of prohibition advocates in the state
who urge a vigorous enforcement of
the law. Opposed to them is anoth-
er large body which resents bitterly
bition on certain portions of the state.
They point out that Minneapolis is
fully able to handle the liquor traf-
fic and declare that its laws are bet
ter and more adaptable to the purpose
than are the federal laws
Further complications arise from
the fact that about four -fifths of the
Chippewa braves in Minnesota are cit
izens and have been so for the last
four years. Therefore, the federal law
prohibiting the sale of liquor does not
effect them. On the other hand there
same immediate neighpornood who
are prohibited from purchasing Ii
quor.
The interior department caused a
rigorous investigation to be made of
all these charges and now make the
announcement that wherever it has
been found that improper methods
have been used prosecution of the Of
ficers accused will rolIow. The de-
partment also asserts that it is not
responsible for the law but is strictly
charged with its enforcement
There are six separate treaties in
volved in the Minnesota situation. In
each of these it is declared that those
portions of the law of the United
States prohibiting the introduction OF
traffic in spirits, wines, or other IL
quors in the Indian country should

NORMAL REGENT is NAMED.
Professor w. G. Bryant, of Moro, Ap-
pointed, Vice E. E. Bragg

Salem, Or.-Professor William Gull
len Bryant, of Moro, has been ap-
pointed by Acting Governor as a men,
ber of the state board of normal re-
gents, to succeed E. E. Bragg, whose
term expired June 80, 1910. Mr..
Bragg is a resident of La Grande.
The new appointee will remain in
office until June 80, 1916. Professor
Bryant is county school superintend-
ent of Sherman county and an attor-
ney of Moro. He is a graduate of the
Monmouth normal school and of the
University of Oregon.
The board of normal regents is con-
sidered to be one of the important
boards, now that the Monmouth nor
NAL school is given a new lease of life.
Under the initiative measure which
reinstated that school as subject to
state maintenance, there will be large
sums of money placed at the disposal
of the board annually for the care of
the school and probably for additional
buildings, this being the only normal
school now coming under state super
vision.
Prof. Bryant, the newly appointed
regent, is a republican.

Mr.. Blanks name is handed by the
secret service men to Secretary Nor

may interview the caller, in an at

away. Norton personally sees every
visitor who has business with the
president. In addition, he is present
in the presidents private office, dur
ing a part of every interview which
the executive grants.
Norton having o. KID the applica-
ton, the visitor is next taken to a
sort of improvised reception hall by
Doorkeeper McKenna. The corri-
dor is nothing more than hall,

few who eventually see the president.
McKenna lets the callers in one at a
time, or in bunches.
The new plan has resulted in much
greater facility in the handling of call
ers. The secret service men are re-
sponsible for the improvement. They
are experts in "sizing up" callers.

Washington.-One of the most in
teresting conventions to be held in the
coming year is the so-called dope
congress''-the congress for the in
ternational control of habit forming
drugs, the preliminaries for which are
now being arranged by the government
of the Netherlands. Some years ago
diplomatic negotiations between Chi
ma and England resulted in an agree
ment between the two powers by
which England agreed upon gradu-
al reduction of the quantities of OPT
um exported from its Asiatic posses
sions into China in proportion as to
the Chinese government restricted the
manufacture of opium in China.
The great benefits which have re-
suited from this agreement have
caused the enlightened progressives
who now dominate the government of
the celestial empire to seek a more
rapid reduction of opium sale in Chi
ma than is provided for in the Anglo
Chinese treaty. At the time of the
signing of this treaty certain influ-
entail citizens of the United States in
terested the state department in the
plight of China and from this point
the agitation in this country upon the
subject of a general control of habit
forming drugs has steadily increased
Accordingly the state department de-
cided to take the initiative in propos-
ing a world-conference. The propo-
sition was agreed to by all of the
powers but two of them disagreed as
to the inclusion of certain drugs In
the classification of "habit forming
drugs" This matter has now beer
settled and the final arrangement fol
the congress is being undertaken by
the Netherlands. 1t will probably con-
Vene within the next few months.

CHILEAN WATERWAYS

The Chilean government has under
consideration the improvement of the
Valdivia river and the port of Corral,
at a cost of s3,650,00O United States
gold. 1t is proposed to dredge the
channel of the river to a depth of 2s
feet as far up as the city of valdivia
and provide a harbor at Corral suffi-
ciently large to accommodate 20 war
vessels at a time.
That part of Chile is developing
rapidly, both in agriculture and man
ufacturing Corral is the place where
the extensive steel plant is located,
which began work in January. 1910.

Washington,-A new system of
handling callers at the executive Of
fices Of the white house has just been
put into operation by Secretary Chas.
Dyer Norton. Heretofore visitors
hoping to penetrate to the presidents
private office have been dealt with
mainly by Secretary Norton or AS
sistant Secretary Forster both Of
whom attempted the task Of weed
ing out the undesirables.
Now Secretary Norton has put the
secret service operatives at the white
house to work. Two operatives
charged with the safety of the presi-
dent are always on duty at the execu-
tive offices during the time that the
president is in his office Formerly
they waited in the reception room
and mingled unostentatiously with the
heterogeneous crowd of callers APP
parently they had no connection with
the white house force.
Norton, however, has put them to
pacity Of ushers. 1t Is their business
to interview every caller, ascertain his
business, size him up, and in all ways
possible facilitate their quick dspos-
al They are practically under secre-
taries nowadays, and are supposed to
weed out callers of the crank variety,
ana switch visitors who really have
not any imperative business with the
executive over to Secretary Norton.
1,,Af 80 fntn I,
their specified duty of personally siz-
ing up all white house callers-on
the contrary, it gives them better
chance to inspect visitors.
The new plan has worked like a
charm. Never before in the Taft ad-
ministration has the president been
able to dispose of so many callers in
so short a time. A great deal of crit
icism was leveled at the white house
during the last session of congress by
certain congressman who had to wait
two and three hours to see the execu-
tive. The president was generally
an hour behind his engagement list
People who could just as well have
been handled by one of the secretaries
were permitted to take up the execu-
tive's time with minor matters, which
visitors of Importance cooled their
heels and got hot under the collar out
in the reception room.
Here is the way in which the ordi-
nary caller, who comes to the white
house with legitimate business with
the president progresses:
First, he is met at the door by two
uniformed policemen, who ask him
his business, and pass him on to the
large reception hall. incidentally,
these two officers have been on duty
at the executive offices for ten years.
They know every public official, ev-
cry senator and congressman, and
every man of prominence in the coun-
try
once in the large reception hall, the
visitor sits down to wait. Before long
one of the two secret service men
takes his name down on special
blank. on which his business is stat
ed, and whether he desires to see Sec
retary Norton or the president. The
caller must convince the secret SER
vice men that he has a legitimate ex-

AVERAGE CROWD
HERE FOR CIRCUS.

The crowd that was here yesterday
for the Wild West snow was not the
usual circus crowd that Bryan gen
orally has. The people were not as
enthusiastic as they usually are over
a circus, and the show was not up TO
the standard. The exhibitions of fancy
riding, roping, the stage hold-up, etc,
were just such as we have been seeing
for the last twenty-five years. But
there was one feature that deserves
special mention: a troupe of Japanese
acrobats. jugglers and wire walkers
We're the best that have ever been to
this city. Their feats of skill and phys
ical strength were wonderful. and the
juggling and wire-walldng were also
out of the ordinary.
1t is reported on reliable authority
that Sells Bros. d Forepaugh are com
ing to Bryan about the middle OF No.
vember. and If they do there will be
a crowd here that will make business
for everybody.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1910.

1t does us all good to be reminded
of our insignificance. A wise man
once said that if you want to know
now unimportant you are, stick your
finger in water, draw 1t out and look
for the hole. The Yoakum Times sug-
,gests another way of making us feel
our littleness. 1t is this: IF you think
the world is going to remember you
long after you are dead, spend day
at the cemetery where thousands sleep
that once walked our streets, well
known, talked about, and had their
names in the papers; and now the
years come and go and their names
are never mentioned"
