Sacramento, Cal, Nov. 11.-Govern-
or Hiram w. johnson, who returned
yesterday from the east, where he spent
three weeks campaigning for the Pro
gressive candidates in Massachusetts
and New Jersey, gave the United Press
the following statement in connection
with the results of the elections last
Tuesday:
BY GOVERNOR HIRAM JOHNSON
AS | said when l left California,
three weeks ago, the principal object
of my trip was to lend such service as
l could to our brethren in Massachus-
etts, who were making a gallant fight.
The contest in Massachusetts was
the one national battle ground. If
here, where the issue wan not com
plicated but thoroughly understood, the
old guard of the republican party could
break the new progressive party, the
ancient regime again would be in the
saddle in every state.
Reactionaries On Board.
All the old reactionaries and every
"near progressive" to whom the lure
of office is more potent than the tri-
umphs of principle, were imported to
Massachusetts,.
The invasion included the light in
fantry of "near progressives, the
heavy artillery of amalgamationsts, the
black flag troop of reaction and special
privilege-all singing the one song
that progressivism was dead and the
republican party had regained its sway
The entire presidential lightning
rod contingent spent days comseling
amalgamation, consolidation and return
to the penitent leaders of the republi-
can party and all were very confident
of what the result would be and were
willing to stake upon the result in Mas.
sachusetts the future.
Raps Borah ana Cummins.
The issue was plain--which party
shall survive, the republican or the
progressive7 1t was thought by our
old standpat friends and those coun-
seIlors of peace and good will and am
algamation and office winning, like
Senators Borah and Cummins, that they
could safely rest the issue in the old
Bay state, with its historic past and
glorious traditions.
But, as usual they reckoned with
out the people.
Massachusetts, decided on the simple
issue, which was without complication
and thoroughly understand by all its
people that the surviving party should
be the progressive party. Never before
has the republican party been third in
that state.
The vote Of last year and This year
needs no comment. Here it is, approx.
imately;

The reaetionary press took very good
pains to say little of the Massachusetts
election, but pointed with pride to New
Jersey. The chief stock in trale of the
republican candidate in New Jersey was
that he voted for Roosevelt and was
for the progressive ticket last year, and
he insisted that he was still progressive.
The issue was wholly obscured, but
not so in Massachusetts,.
Aided in Mitchell Election
in New York City the progressives
took as prominent q part in the defeat
Of Tammany and the election of Nit
chel as any other organization, and did
its full share
The progressive party elected the may
or of Syracuse, and think, also of
Auburb, and quite a number of the
members of the state assembly.
Wherever it came in direct conflict
with the republican party its showing
was quite as good as that of the old.
er party.
All in all, the progressives may well
congratulate themselves on the recent
results. There is same splendid, mil
liant spirit among them that character
lied them last year.

INDIANS BRING
BIG CLAIM FOR
TREATY RIGHTS
Say They Own South Chicago
Land and Control Michigan
Fishing Rights
FAULTY WORDING OF OLD
TREATY BASIS OF SUIT
Ott0was and Chippewas Behind
Move to Present Action for
$2OO.OOO,OOO

MACKINAW CITY. Mich, Dso. o.
approximately 900 Ottawa and Chip
powa Indians In Michigan early this
month Will enter claim for 100000
900 against the United States govern,
ment for alleged deprivation OF val
liable lands and nshing rights In the
0rost Lakes. Several OF the attor-
nsys who have investigated the olaim'
which IL tho most gigantic ever enter
I'd against the public domain by In
dians. say that II is valid.
Two former claims OF similar
nature made by these Indians were
recognised ~ valid by the govern
ment and something over 100000
paid to the tribes.
The validity OF this latest and larg-
est demand against the government
hinges upon the Interpretation OF the
treaty of 1893, between the govern
ment and IL Indian tribes. including
the Northern Michigan Ottawas and
Chippewss. Until recently, 1t was
supposed that under the terms OF this
treaty. the rcd men had signed away
all rights to land where South Chi
cago IL now located. to all the Great
Lakes islands and to unrestricted hsh.
ing rights In the lake waters. as well
as other property OF enormous value
IN Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan.
K now develops that through faulty
wording uf the treaty and through
oversight, the South Chicago land,
the Great Lakes islands and the fish
ing rights were not included In the
treaty Through the United States
.f 81 % uu n
Indians will now attempt TO obtain
the money equivalent Of the property
OF which they have been deprived for
two generations.
For two years, preparations for nj
ing the claim haze been In progress.
There was much work to be done.
The gradual disbanding OF the tribes
during the past half century resulted
in q scattering Of the Indian popnla'
tion and II was necessary to locate
all direct descendants of the chiefs
Of the tribes named In the treaty.
Most OF the claimants were found re-
siding In the vicinity OF Mackinaw
city, Sault Ste. Marie. Petoskey ano
Charlevoix. with few scattered
Throughout the Grand Traverse and
Leelanau districts. This work OF
locating and classifying the claim
ants Is now completed.
The Indian attorneys. In presenting
their claim. will call attention to the
fact that deprivation Of the Indians
Of their fishing rights took from them
their principal food-nsh.
Some OF the lake islands involved
| In the fishing rights claim are
North and South Manitous; North
and South Fox; Beaver, with It's
cluster OF lesser islands; Mackinac
ISLAND: Bois Blanc and numerous hsh-
| ing bays.
