Many Vices Practiced by the Local
Tribe That Could be Corrected
by Federal Assistance. The Local
Peace Officers Approve the Plan

Al the present time the local Indi-
an question is a worryment~ to the
peace officers and citizens who take
any interest in the affairs and condi-
,ions OF the Washoe tribe. There is
hardly a day passes but that an ar
rest follows some debauch on the
part of the Indians. That they get
tia 1.-THE movement started by this
whisky is undeniable and if not
whisky some other brand of fire
water that has the desired effect 1t
is against the local ordinance for
Indians to frequent Chinatown. In
spite of the arrests that follow their
appearance at this point OF tempta-
tion it keeps some of the police
force busy keeping them away from
that section.
\ few nights ago the writer was
present at an arrest i'll Chinatown.
Two young Indians were found hid
ing in one of the shanties and on be-
ing arrested one OF them had a full
quart bottle of China gin. They both
confessed that they knew it was
against the law to visit the quarters
or buy liquor, but they explained
that they thought that they could
slip through and get a little booze"
One Of the Indians was boy who
had been given better than average
chances with the world. He had
been sent TO Carslile. took up a
smattering Of studies. is fine musi-
clan and an all-round bad Indian
through association. He has given
the local authorities a lot of trouble,
As he does not want work and is al
ways seeking a chance to fill up on
some cheap liquor He is regarded
as a bad Indian and will eventually
wind up with a prison term.
The other boy was recently releas-
ed from the Indian School He has
a splendid education. In his effects
he carried copy of Cooper's
Prairie" and evidently had thumbed
the edition many times. 1t was his
first offense and he received a few
days in the county jail for correction
Whisky alone is but starter for
the troubles of the tribe The curse
of opium is fastened on at least sixty
per cent. Of the tribe. There is
hardly an arrest made but that the
officers take away opium in some
form They are fends to the drug
and are fast losing what little hold

THE WASHOE INDIANS AND A RESERVATION

its feet
While Uncle Sam is fighting the
opium habit and preventing its i'm
portation little work at home
would be appreciated It's good
deal like sending money to foreign
missions when there is plenty OF
work at home.
While on the Indian subject it
might not be amiss to state that
there is quite a family of the tribe
living in rented cabin almost in the
heart of the city This may be all
right but their appearance in the
Reighborhood certainly has not an
elevating influence either for the par
ticular section or the city at large 1t
certainly does not look we'll to have
a band of Indians living within the
city limits and it would appear that
this should be regulated and they
be compelled to live in their own dis
tricts and separate from the city pop
ulation.

they had On the world
are as bad if not worse morally than
the men. Their morals are as loose
as any, wild creature and their desire
seems to be for liquor, opium and
other dissipation They abuse every
sense of nature and the tribe is SOW
ing the inroads OF modern vice in ev-
cry section
The entire trouble settles about
the fact that there is no government
provision or regulations to take care
of this tribe. Could the remnant OF
the tribe be settled on a small reser-
vation with rules and regulations. a
place where it would be against the
government laws to tempt the men
and women into the white mans
vices, there would then be chance
to keep the Indians away from the
communicating influence and no ex
cuSe could be given for visiting the
sections that produce the vice and
degredations that are in evidence
daily
This plan OF reservation is approx
ed by the peace officers They state
that the movement started by this
paper would absolutely end their
troubles and also work a vast bene-
fit to the tribesmen.
\ few OF the Indians have made
good help about the farms and othe,
trades. They are exceptions to the
rule In the case of the Washoe In
dian the Government has offered no
assistance, has provided no quarter
They are allowed to SHIFT for them

or any other way so that they eat.
In case of disease, and there is ev
cry form in the camps, they are al
lowed to treat the m selves with medi-
cine men or go to an early grave
without the assistance of science. 1t
is shameful condition in land oi
plenty and modernism. Considering
that this is the day of electric science
and advancement the crime of the
government in this instance is shock
ing We shout about modernism and
within few minutes walk come
upon condition of squalor that is
not allowed in any other section OF
the world. 1t is time for the govern
ment to take action in order to clear
up a disgraceful situation and set

A Big Job
in Wiring

The work oi wiring the Capitol
building Tor electric illumination to
take the place OF the gas service nov
installed is a big contract. The
specifications call for iirst-class work
in every particular and aside from
that the rooms are very large an,
the walls are in many instances bull,
OF stone This means slow and te
dious work and plenty OF it. Sew
eral of the leei.i-eontfacters~ arc look
ing over the building preparatory t.
putting in bid for the work They
find lot OF obstacles to overcome
in order to make it a lasting anG
good job.
When this work Is finished it will
prove beneficial in every way. The
old gas service pipes in the building
nave been there since the building
was erected and many of them are
buried in stone and concrete, render
ing it almost impossible to repair OF
alter 1t is on account OF this con
dtion that the electric service will
be installed as well as for better
lights throughout. If everything
goes we'll the building will be prop
erly lighted inside OF few months
and make 4 far better appearance
from every view point.

K X Commission
Files Brief

After preparing an appeal to the
congressional representatives OF Ne
vada in the United States senate and
in the lower house of congress, on
December IL, the Nevada railroad
commission yesterday made public
| the text OF its communication. The
| railroad commission has asked the
congressman and both senator's to
further the Sims bill for the aboli-
ton OF the Commerce court with
modification suggested that there be
no intermediate step between the
interstate commerce commission and
the supreme court of the United
States. The commission further
asks that the law be framed to re-
quire such appeals to the supreme
court to be given precedence on the
calander over private civil appeals
Coming as it does with Nevada an
interested party in litigation now
pending before the commerce court,
the supreme court and the interstate
commerce commission, the appeal is
regarded as bold stroke 1t is re
garded as expressing the sentiment
Of the Nevada commission that it
has been baked of relief in the Reno
case through the harmful informed
ding of the newly created commerce
court
n tha Of nnnaal fha
Nevada commission goes extensively
into the subject 1t does not ques-
ton the honesty or integrity of the
commerce court as at present con
slituted, but it does question the use
lulness of the body. 1t says that
the commerce court is constantly
under the temptation to usurp the
functions of the interstate commerce
commission and that when it does
not do so it merely gives an unsatis-
factory decision on the law which
causes an inevitable appeal to the
court of final resort.
In considering the plan of the
Sims bill to abolish the commerce
court, but to revive the appellate
jurisdiction of the federal court of
appeals, much the same objection is
made. The commission says that in
most cases where the federal courts
have reversed the interstate com
merce commission and the supreme
court has finally handled the matter,
the interstate commerce commission
was sustained and the federal court
was reversed after much time was
uselessly wasted.
