White Mans Way Fatal.

The adoption by the Indians Of what
they believe to be the white mans way
Of living. the commissioner says, is re-
sponsible for the appalling conditions
that are said to exist. Housed In. cabins
or shacks with absolutely no ventilation
and ignorant Of even the most rudimen-
tary sanitary measures, the Indians fall
an easy prey to tuberculosis, pneumo-
MIA and kindred ailments. 1t is under
stood at the Office Of the Indian commits

by the investigating committee viii say
that conditions actually seen by them
are far worse than previous reports have
indicated.
AZ the principal suffering is among
those members OF the tribe who hold
their lands as individuals, and thus are
not under control Of the government, the
commissioner says. the bureau of Indian
affairs can do nothing to remedy the ex-
listing conditions. In number of cases
where IL is believed that fraud was re-
sorted to in purchasing the land Of the
Indians the bureau has taken the mat
ter up, and an effort is being made to
restore the lands to their original own
