RED LAKE PINE TO STAND
Appropriation for Cutting Reserva-
ton Timber Opposed at Washing.
ton-sell Only Dead Trees.
ONLY FOREST OF KIND IN STATE

Pine timber on the Red Lake In
dian reservation is not to be cut at
present because of opposition aroused
to a clause of the Indian appropria-
tion bill as it was presented to the
senate of congress by the Indian
committee of that body. This tract
is the largest of its kind in the
state
The house committee refused to
adopt this plan for the sale of the
standing pine timber on the Red
Lake reservation, and the senate
committee favored it, but Senator
Clapp has been impressed with. the
point made that this timber should
not be cut at the present time, and
that only SO such of the timber that
is dead or down should be marketed
as the requirements of the situation
make it desirable
Attention has been called to the
bill in the present session of con-
gress contains more general .legisla-
ton than ever was known in any ap-
preparation bill in recent years. This
is said to be due to the settled pur-
pose of the dominant members if the
committee, mainly senators from the
south and southwest, to secure leg
|-islation in this way because it has
not been possible to. get general bills
through congress providing the leg
islation that is desired, particularly
as to the Indian reservations in the
Southwest. 49,. H.. s-,-.:...s@ Il
With reference to Indian legisla-
ton for Minnesota, several Of the
items Incorporated by the senate,'
while not Objectionable, are develop
ments of the new policy for legis-
lating in connection with the appro-
priations. This is true with refer
ence to an item carried in the bill
providing an appropriation of $1,000
from the Indian fund to pay members
of the Chippewa band of Indians
who have visited Washington in the
interests of legislation. Another
feature relates to the authorization
of the secretary of the interior to
approve of assessments for drainage
of lands upon the different Indian
reservations in tht state, this drain
age having been carried out under
state laws. Another new feature of
of the bill is a provision authorizing
the commissioner of Indian affairs to
advance to Chippewa Indians in the
state funds which the Indians may
need from time to time, in the discre-
ton of the commissioner, the amount
to be deducted from the share which
such Indians have in the tribal funds.
! 1t is certain that some of this leg
islation, and probably that relating
to the sale of merchantable pine tim.
Der will be rejected by the senate
during the consideration of the bill
