At the pow-wow the four chiefs, to

them. Through an interpr eter they
talked to Superintendent Friedman,
and declared themselves more than
ever converted to education and
that they would 60 back to their peo-

been strong opponents in the past

amazing than anything else, the

best that their children should
speak no Indian language, that they
should forget the past and seek citi-

The first trace of the, alleged
smuggling was procured by George

Mr.. Foulkes had planned to take

General Crozier writes as follows
of circular issued to members of

This circular was issued last

and general administration only,
without directly affecting the en-
ployes or their compensation and

the protest being based on the fear
of what might follow.

system or by some other, it ought
to be possible to secure better co
operation of the employees among
themselves, and between them and

to be possible to accomplish this by
making it to the interest of as many

would increase their productiveness,

that. at Rock Island arsenal, 're-

considering the number of packages

crease over the figures for the pre-

decrease in the number of issues
arises from an effort to save trans

1T il also considered that there

evidence that these differences are
