INDIANS PROTECTED
By Food Commissioners Against
interruptions Meat
Dealers.

Vermillion, March 25.-Although
it is a matter of common report that
in times past the North American
Indian was not always as discrimin-
ating in the selection of his food,
especially meat food, as the white
man, the state food and drug de-
partment does not intend to per-
nit him to be imposed upon by 'un-
scupulous white brothers. This was
shown in an incident which occurred
in Roberts county this week which
resulted in the arrest and successful
prosecution of an inhabitant of that
county on the charge of attempting
to sell bad meat to the Indians in
the vicinity of Summit and Sisseton.
Monday morning, as Inspector A.
Prestwick was leaving his home in
Summit to take the train west he
was told that Isaac Waters had left
Summit with the carcass of a cow
which had died the night before and
that Waters intended to sell the meat
to the Indians. Hastily gathering
such information as he was able, the
inspector hired a livery team and
started after Waters, driving until 6
O'Clock that afternoon. He was I'M
able to overtake his mar but stopped
at several places where Waters had
called and ~endeavored to sell the
meat but without success. Inspector
Prestwick went back to Summit and
took the night train for Sisseton,
the county seat, arriving there the
next morning. He filed information
with the states attorney and the
sheriff went out to the Indian settle
ment in search of Waters whom he
found with all but a small portion
of the meat still unsold. He was
taken to Sisseton, where he plead
guilty before the county justice and
| was fined SIS, and ordered to de-
stroy the meat, which order was
complied with. The facts brought
out showed that a COW had died
some time during last Saturday
night and was found dead in the
stall Sunday morning, presumably
from a broken neck. The carcass
was dressed and taken Monday to
the Indian settlement to be sold.
| The law makes it a misdemeanor to
! sell or offer for sale meat from a
diseased animal or from n that has
! died otherwise than by slaughter.
