whites. and the former feel it
would be much more appropriate
if the latter would follow this Gus
tom by not interfering with Indian
matters unless requested to do so
by the Indians.
There has been much legisla-
ton inimical to the interests of
the Indians which the so called
friends of the former have never
raised their voices in protest
against, but when it comes to leg
islation which the Indians want in
order to obtain more freedom in
the management of their own
affairs these friends are not slow
in making protests on the grounds
that the interests Of the Indians
are endangered thereby.
The Indians favor the passage
of the johnson and Hastings bills
probably unanimously, at least to
that extent that if the bills were
submitted to them for their ap-
proyal the vote would be almost
unanimous if not unanimous
among all the tribes, and many al
so favor the Lane bill, and as they
are exclusively effected, the New
Century Club and all other or
CARNATIONS, and persons other
than the Indians, should not in
terfere unless requested to do so
by the latter through their coun-
ellis and not through individual
members of any tribe.

Yankton Sioux Indians the mean

The secretary told the Indians
that the great white father had
sent him to speak a serious and
solemn word. Each chosen In
dian was called from the crowd by
his "white' name, and handed a
bow and arrow aud directed to
shoot.
"You have shot your last ar
row." said the secretary. "This
means that you are no longer to
live the life of an Indian. You
are from this day to live the life
of white man. But you may
keep that arrow; it will be to you
symbol of your noble race and
of the pride you feel that you
come from the first of all Ameri-
cans.'
Calling the Indian again by his
white name, the secretary had him
stand by pillow and told him of
the necessity of labor. A purse,
in order that the wise man can
save his money so that when the
sun does not smile and when the
grass does not grow he will not
starve." a badge of American citi-
zenship and flag we're given each

If there is anything which the
Indians Of this country desire
more than anything else 1T is that
their misguided friends should not
interfere with any legislation
which the Indians themselves
want.
More than twenty-four delega-
tions from different tribes and
bands throughout the country
were az Washington during the
past winter and they worked for
the passage of certain bills among
which were the Hastings, johnson
and Lane bills, but influences we're
Immediately started by persons
claiming to be the friends of In.
dian interests against these bills
without consulting the wishes of
the Indians. 1t was charged that
mixed-bloods and the influences of
bad whites in the vicinity of res
ervationS we're the instigators of
these bills. The influences of these
m xed bloods and bad whites must
be unlimited since all the delega-
tiops of Indians that were at
Washington favored the bills:
The opposition to these bills has
not yet subsidized as is evidenced
