AGENT EVEREST SENDS A ,NEN YEAR
Appeal Out To His Boys--The Appeal
Follows

The following letter, which during the
past week has been sent out by Agent P.
S. Everest, shows the work that is being
bone on this reservation by him and is in
direct line with the present administration.
Mr.. Everest is attempting in every way
possible to abolish the use of liquor by the
Indian and this is the first time in the his
tory of the agency here that this has been
done. Let ever male Indian stand by
Agent Everest in his noble work.
To MY Chippewa Friends, The Bad
River Band.
GREETING.
What better time to make good resolve
than on the first day of the New Year.
What better resolve to make than to fight
the evil OF incompetence from this time on.
will not try to review here what awful
hardships, privation, suffering and degreda-
ton the whiskey curse has brobght to all
classes of people who have become its VIC
tins. No person is strong enough to COM
bat the evil for very long. Whiskey plays
no favorites and gets its prey sooner or lat
er, in one way or another. Proof Of these
facts are brought to our notice every day,
not only amone the Indians but all classes
of people.
Count the cost for moment and see
fro our own little spheic 7hcw many of
your friends and acquaintance have been
enmeshed in the drag net of the liquor curse
in even the past twelve months. Count,
too, the numbers who have been punished
and whose families have, been the greatest
sufferers. Count the numberless dollars the
Indians alone have spent for liquor; the
hundreds they have spent in court fines and
tine time, worse than lost, that has been
served in sentences. Conceding that these
things are true the remedy lies with you
and it can be applied if we make use of the
right effort.
I am addressing this "New Year Appeal
to every adult male Indian on the tcserva-
ton because want all your names on the
COLA Honor Roll, ''and because, too, ,hat
we want to overthrow this national evil in
at least our own little community.
1t is not to be understood that the Indians
are wholly incorporate from that Many
of you are today fighting the 'ivuor traffic
evil as forcibly as any one, and you are hon
ored and respected for it.
For scores of years the temptation has
been thrown at you and some have fallen
victims. and it is this few that | want to
reach. You have paid the cost in many

CATO SELLS
OBJECTS TO
The Classifying of the Indian
as Monaghan
Must Remain As The Red Race
Always.
NO 80

Washington, D. c., Dec. 3l--The
American Indian should not he classified as
a Monaghan. This is the belief of Cato
Sells, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, after
personal investigation and consultation with
DR.. F. W. Hodge, Ethnologist in charge
of the Bureau of American Ethnology of
the Smithsonian Institute at Washington.
Certain recent writer's, in an effort to re-
duce the number of races into which man
is divided, have shown disposition to do
away with the old classification of the In
dian or Red Man as distinct race, and to
classify him as member of the Mongolian
family.
Instructions prohibiting the teaching of
the classification in indian schools which
places tie Indian in the Mongolian family
will be issued by Commissioner Sells, and
all school books containing such classihca-
ton will be dropped from the authorized
list of books in use in the Indian service.
Commissioner Sells says that he Is advised
by the best authority that the Indians are
classed by anthropologists as a distinct race
commonly designated as the Red Race, or
as Red Men,. in contradistinction to lhe
White (Caucassian), Yellow (Mongolian),
Brown Malay and Black Negro races

of people, and that he proposes to do every
thing in his power TO oppose the arbitrary
classification advanced by few publishers
