R|G|DLy ENFORCE
THE LIQUOR Law
INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN INDIAN
AGENTS IN STATE FOR STRICT
ENFORCEMENT OF LAW.

Washington, Oct. 24.-In order to
obtain a stricter enforcement of the
law against introducing liquor upon
Indian lands, the interior department
through Acting Indian Commissioner
Abbott has issued an order prohibit
ing the introduction Of liquor upon
any pretext by agents of the govern
,ment or others, whether on physic-
ians prescription or what not, into
the forbidden areas. The only excep-
tion is wine for sacramental pur-
poses.
Recent reports Indicate" says Act
ing Commissioner Abbott's order,
that there is not at all Indian schools
and agencies the strict compliance
with the law which there should be,
against the introduction of intoXi-
cants, and that some government ply
sicians prescribe liquor for alleged
medical purposes.
Every employe in the Indian ser
vice knows, that the use of intoxi'
cants is one of the greatest menaces
to the health and the progress OF
Indians. Congress has recognized
this fact by making large appropria-
tions for a special force of officers
to assist the Indian office in sup
preston OF the liquor traffic among
Indians.
This special legislation not only
does not relieve the field employees OF
the Indian service of their RESPONSE
bility to enforce prohibition in the
Indian country as provided by law,
but should serve to emphasize the re-
sponsibility. The law can not be en-
forced effectively as to Indians I'M
less employees themselves set the ex.
ample for it's obedience. There can
not be one law in the Indian country
for Indians and different law for
white employees.
"The difficulties Of keeping intoxi-
eating liquors from the Indians are
so great that only by the constant
cooperation Of all employees of all

heart? There was enough land, but no
one to do clearing and farm. Tax on
all those acres. recently the new gravel

and only the work of two women to

she could come to the city to school.
Her mother had been right. The girl
decided that if only she lived to get
home she would stay there and lead
any sort of life to avoid more Of this
torture. Bad as what she wished to
escape had been, it was nothing like
this She never could live down the
movement that went through the class
when she inadvertently revealed the
fact that she had expected her books
to be furnished. Her mother would
not get them. That settled the ques-
