Language cannot be expressed 900
strongly against the action Of the In
dian service in this neglect The
very idea OF allowing old men and
women TO starve. to go about lousy

filth, while department heads grow
fat and sleek in the business. is in
itself enough to breed disgust and
wake the people to a point OF inves-
tigation.
While Congressman is putting in
his time doing lot OF petty politics,
such as appointing a postmaster TO
a side-track postoffice (and not ap-
pointing others who expected it). the
old Indian becomes beggard, his son
and offspring reek in low crimes. the
race becomes degenerate, and because
the Indian has no vote he is a sore
piece Of neglect. Give the Indian a
