ITO THE END OF OUR DAYS

Said Hollow Horn Bear In Recogni-
ton of the Kindnesses of the
Palefaces .
New York, Feb. 22.-Twenty-nine
fullblooded Indian chiefs from West
Fern>Teservatiens. decked I'M the rega-
liza of their rank, marched proudly
up the hill at Fort Wadsworth,
Staten Island, today with their Great
White Father" President Taft and
members of his official family. They
formed silent group as the Presi-
dent upturned spadeful of earth,
breaking ground for the National
American Indian Memorial. a sixty
foot bronze statue of an Indian war
rior, which will tower 165 feet above
the highest elevation around New
York harbor. a tribute to vanish
ing race.
The guns of the fort roared a ma
tional salute of tWenty-one guns at
the moment the President placed
his foot on the spade. AS he STEP
ped back, Chief Hollow Horn Bear
of the Yankton Sioux, came forward
from the group and upturned a sec.
ond bit of earth with the thigh bone
of buffalo. That done, the chief
replied with a speech.
AS Hollow Horn Bears voice died
away, the Star and Stripes we're run
up a great f1agpole near by, to the
rhythm of Indian folk songs, sung
by the chieftains. When it reached
the top the band broke out with
The Star-Spangled Banner"
President Taft's address was brief.
For two centuries" he said, the
North American Indian has had a
right to be treated, not as a relic of
prehistoric man, but as an existing
force with great and immediate and
direct influence upon the settlement
and development of this country by
the white races
In his reply the Indian chief said
that he and his companions consid
cred themselves from this day for
ward citizens of the United States.
To the end of our days, he said,
we will encourage our children to
take the advice of the white men.
We ask him to join US and help us
get out of the rut in which we have
existed so many years: We thought
that when the white man came he
came as visitor, but we found he
came to rule US. We see nov that
he was fated to come and improve
our country and teach us civiliza-

INDIAN BILL PASSES

Washington, Especial. )-Carrying
approximately s13,657952, of which
$1O,095, 952 is appropriated out of
the treasury, the remainder being
reimbursable items, the Indian ap-
preparation bill was today passed by
the senate. This measure as passed
almost doubles the appropriations
authorized by the house. The senate
increased the house appropriations
for the suppression of liquor traffic
among the Indians, the construction
of hospitals for the treatment of In
dams and the improvement of Indian
schools. Several irrigation projects
are provided for. A heated attack
on the proposal to transport the
Apache Indians now held prisoners
of war on the Fort Sill military res
ervation in Oklahoma, into New
Mexico and Arizona. was made by
Senator Fall, of New Mexico. He
offered an amendment prohibiting
the use of funds in this manner.
Three points of order were made
against the amendment, but all of
them were withdrawn upon the ap-
peal of Senator Fall. Senator Owen
finally renewed the point and the
amendment offered by Senator Fall
was not adopted.
