INDIAN OFFICIALS IN
w. c. T. u. CONTROVERSY

Pierre, s. D., Oct. William E.
Johnson, formerly special agent in
New Mexico for the Indian service,
whose connection with the campaign
among the Indians against the use OF
liquor which, coupled with the part he
took in the San Juan murder trial at
Santa Fe, brought him prominently be-
fore the public some months ago, has
demanded the retraction Of certain con-
demnRtory statements concerning him
and others which are found in the re-
port OF a Pierre w. G. T. u. commit
tee generating Clinton F.. Crandall,
superintendent OF h Pierre indian
school. Of the charges brought against
Crandall who Is blamed by Johnson for
being one Of the chief causes of Indian
debauchery while the former was In
dian agent at Santa Fe.
A letter from Johnson published in
the White Ribbon Journal, state organ
for South Dakota w. c. T. u. contained
references to Crandan which causes the
appointment Of a committee to inves-
tigate his record. The findings Of that
committee is objected to by Johnson in
a lengthy letter to Mrs. Alice r. Cos
sage. editor Of the White Ribbon
Journal.
Resolutions adopted by the w. c, T.
u. of Santa Fe, N. NJ, in which John

Interviews with members of the in
vestigating committee reveals the fact
that at least one of the number signed
the report under the impression that 1t
was a request TO Johnson for proof of
his charges and not a clean bill of
health for Crandall as subsequently
proved to be tho case. Two others ad-
NIT they were not aware Of the true
natur Of the document to which they
attached their Sentiment is
growing in favor of a thorough investi-
cation that will either clear Crandall

against him by Johnson.

bility of using GESTURE in schools for
the deaf; compulsory education: to
promote the establishment of social

ton in memory of the birth of DR..

OYSTERS TO BE CERTIFIED
State Board of Health Begins Work
of Elaborate Inspection.

The new laboratory yacht built for
the State Board of Health for the In
spection of the State oyster grounds
reached Maurice River Cove for the
opening of the oyster season, and be-
gan work of keeping the much-at-
tackled. f1oated oyster safe and whole
some. DR.. R. B. FitzRandolph, Chief
of the Division of Food and Drugs OF
the State Board, will have direct
supervision of the inspection work,
which will be carried on on a broader
scale than ever before. The actual
inspections will be made by H. w.
Warren, chemist and bacteriologist,
assisted by E. B. Parsons, who will
also operate the boat. There will
also be one or more members of the
division staff engaged in the work
both in the field and in the laboratory.
Oystermen themselves have re-
quested the inspection of the grounds
and secured a special appropriation
from the Legislature to make the work
of the Health Board more complete.
Agitation over the question of floating
oysters stirred up by DR.. Wiley when
he was head of tie national Pure Food
Board, has been responsible for the
eagerness of the oyster planters to
get a clean bill of health for their
product. Large amounts of money
have been spent in the last three or
four years in improving the sanitary
conditions in the towns that lie close
to the oyster grounds, and the
planters have been active in forcing
the towns along the Maurice River to
install sewerage disposal plants. 1--WE
hope to be able to make such investi-
CATION of conditions in the Maurice
River during the coming fall and
winter as will result in a perfectly
safe and wholesome product being
shipped from that point" said DR..
FitzRandolph, in commenting upon
the inspection work. THE oystermen
are cooperating with the State Board
of Health in a most satisfactory man
ner and are evidently DESTROYS of do
ing all they can to remedy the few un-
desirable conditions that remain in
that vicinity"
