ECZEMA DISFlGURED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was disfgured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags Of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
eve consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.
Albrecht, Box 8S3, West Point, Neb..

appear to have no grounds upon
which to base their fears and
they will lose their new homes.
There are several cases, however,
where lands claimed by Indians
have been settled upon and i'm
proved by white settlers and in
adjusting these conflicting claims,
the rights of the white settlers
as well as those of the Indians
will be given full consideration.
CONCLUSIONS
In adjudicating conflicting
claims between white persons
and Indians, this department is
always guided by the law and
the facts in the case, and the
rights of the white persons are
as carefully considered and pro-
tected as those of the Indians.
The opening of a small part of
the surplus lands of the Flathead
reservation, and the utilization
of the Indians allotments as
we'll as the sale of allotted lands
has been complicated and delayed
by reason of the great irrigation
project being constructed on the
reservation.

Assistant Secretary On
Important Local Matters

I
With regard to the regulation
for the sale of irrigable lands O
the Flathead Indians provided TO
by the Act of April 2, 1910 g
Stats. L., 1861, it may be oh
served that the regulations ap
proved by the Department DC
tober II, 1910, are general in thei
nature and apply to sa'es of lant
under all acts, including that O.
April IL, 1910.
No special regulations ar,
needed for the sale of thest
lands, and sales could have beer
made under existing rules at any
time since the passage of the act,
excepting for the administrative
question involved, relating to the
payment of assessment for the
cost of construction and mainten-
ance of the irrigation works.
These remarks also apply to
the sale of inherited Indian lands
generally on the Flathead reser-
walton under the Act of June Is,
1910 (36 Stats. L., 1857. No
sales have been received in this
office from the Flathead agency,
and no instructions have been
given to the superintendent to
withhold from sale any land
whose owners desired to sell, al
though he has been advised that
it will be to the advantage of the
Indians having irrigable allot-
ments not to sell until the irri-
cation construction charge has
been fixed, for the reason that if
they sell before that time the
tribe will receive the payments
for the construction charges in
stead of the allottees.
SALE OF HEIRSHIP LANDS
See proceeding paragraph.
WITHHOLDING LEASE MONEY
With regard to the withhold
ing OF lease money, you are in
formed that the proceeds derived
from the leasing of trust lands
are deposited in the bank by the
superintendent, to the credit of
the lessor under governmental
supervision, and when so depos-
tied it becomes subject to the
check of the Indian, approved by
the superintendent, when author
lied thereto by the commissioner
Of Indian affairs; further, that
of checks is authorized
in all cases where necessary.
When the lessons ability to
judiciously handle the funds de-
rived from the leasing of his land
is unquestioned, the superinten-
dents recommendation to allow
the Indian to draw such rents as
they accrue is allowed.
INDIAN LIEU LANDS
Section IA of the Act of June
Is, 1910 (36 Stats. L., 855-859),

Club, Roman, Montana:
The department is in receipt
through Hon. Charles N. Pray
House of Representatives, of +:
copy of the resolutions adopted
by the Roman Commercial club
December 4 1911, regarding con
ditions on the Flathead India1
reservation, Montana. The mat
ters set forth therein will be tax
en- up in the order in which the,
appear:
LEASING OF INDIAN LANDS
The question of leasing Indian
allotments is at this time receiv.
ing careful consideration in the
department and the Indian office.
To lease all lands on the Flathead
Indian reservation for a period of
from three to five years as sug-
gested would retard the progress
of the Indians for that length of
time. Few white men, and surely
few Indians would be inclined to
get down to hard work if they
were assured of a steady income
sufficient for their needs.
The policy Of the department
regarding the leasing Of Indian
lands is that each able-bodied In
dian, unless he is engaged in
some gainful occupation, should
not be permitted to lease all of
his allotment, but should be
made to retain sufficient on which
to make a living and establish a
home. In this manner the In
dian would be surrounded by
lessees who would be object les
sons to him and lead him in the
ways of civilization and progress.
It is the policy Of the depart
ment to permit able bodied In
dians who lack the means to go
on their allotments and begin
farming operations at once, to
lease or sell any part of their
land, using the proceeds for the
improvement of the same.
There is no law under which
the department could, without
the consent of the allottee, lease
the lands Of mentally competent
Indians. The allotments of minors
and mentally incompetents may
be leased by the superintendent
in charge. The arguments of the
club in favor of developing and
improving the irrigable land are
fully appreciated and the Indian
Office has been directed to write
the superintendent of the Flat
head school asking him to SUBJ
NIT recommendations of a plan
for leasing the surplus Indian
lands, so as to make it possible
for white farmers to lease the
same on such terms as will allow
for the initial expense of level
ing and placing the land under
cultivation.
PATENTS TO INDIAN LANDS
With regard to the issuance of
patents in fee simple, the Act of
May 8, 1906 ga Stats. L., 1922
provides in part as follows:
'The secretary of the interior
may in his discretion, and he is
hereby authorized whenever he
is satisfied that any Indian allot-
tee is competent and capable of
managing his or her affairs at
any time to cause to be issued to
such allottee a patent in fee SIM
pie, and thereafter all restric-
tions as to sale, encumbrance or
taxation of said land shall be re-
and said land shall not be
liable to the satisfaction of any
debt contracted prior to the is
suance of such patent"
/ am informed by the commits
sioner of Indian affairs that more
than $50 patents in fee have been
issued to allottees on the Flat
head reservation since January
l, 1910. About 30 applications
have been denied for the reason
