occasion they observed that no man
could be their friend who would at
tempt to lead them into such follies.
AS I have before remarked the sale
of intoxicating liquors was free and
unrestricted in North Dakota until
1884. 1t was the principal item of trade
among the Indians, but the evil had
become so great, officers and employees
Of the Indian service even being in
terested in the sale of the accursed
stuff that the government took radical
action. June 80, 1884 a Stat, 1887 it
was provided that no person employed
in Indian affairs should have any in
terest or concern in any trade with
the Indians except for and account of
the United States under penalty of
s., 900 fine and removal from office
The president was given full power to
prohibit the sale Of any article, trade
without license was prohibited and
strong provisions enacted for the gov.
eminent of the Indian country.
March 3, 1S4S 60 Stat, 203) it was
provided that no money or good should
be paid or distributed to Indians while
they were under the influence Of in.
toxicating liquors nor while there are
good and sufficient reasons leading
the officers or agents whose duty it
may have been to make such payments
or distributions to believe that there
was any species of Intoxicating liquors
within convenient reach of the In.
dams. The act of March IS, 1864, Q3
Stat. 29) gives authority to seize boats,
stores, packages, wagons, sleds and If
liquor is found to take and destroy it,
and any person other than a full
blooded Indian trading with the In.
dams became liable to forfeit any
goods, merchandise brought into the
Indian country without authority (22
Stat, 1872, and are liable to penalty
of $500.
In 1853 treaty was made with the
Sioux Indians under which they
agreed that "to aid in preventing the
evils of intemperance, it is hereby
stipulated that if any Of the mem
bers of said Sisseton and Wahpeton
bands of Sioux "a similar provision al

or procure for others Intoxicating
liquors, their proportion Of the annui!

act confirming the treaty with the
Chicasaws and Choctaws (32 Stat,
641) provided that the laws of the
United States relating to the introduce
ton, possession, sale and giving away
of liquors or intoxicants Of any kind
within the Indian country or Indian
reservations shall be applicable to the
lands ceded and that said lands should
remain within the jurisdiction Of the
u. S. court for that district.
Unfortunately, for offenders, Judge
Amidon has a way of holding that the
laws relating to Indians mean some
thing and he has never yet admitted
the possibility of anyone finding a
loophole through which they might
escape in cases of this kind.

A Remarkable Man.

John Ziska, the great HUSTLE leader
of the fifteenth century, was one Of
the most remarkable men that ever
lived. His life story reads like a ro-
nance. Nothing in history is more in
teresting, more thrilling, than the &C.
count of his heroic deeds. Though
blind and always greatly outnumbered,
Ziska invariably beat his enemies and
established for himself a fame that
will last forever. He was never beaten
In a battle. His very name was a ter
