ROGERS OPPOSES
INDIAN TREATY
Favors Temperance Legislation by
State and Local
Authorities.

Edward L. Rogers, a Chippewa,
county attorney of Cass county, who
is mentioned as a possible candidate
for congress, is against the Indian
lid which governs this territory. In
a letter to a Cass Lake man ne
writes:
II favor temperance legislation but.
believe that this should be left en-
tirely to the state and local authori-
ties. I stand unqualifiedly for the
repeal of the Indian treaty of 1856,
which has been invoked during the
last two years. It is an injustice
'to@-the white people; it places the
Indians in wrong light, and the
methods of carrying out this treaty's
provisions are not at all in harmony
with the American ideas with refer
ence to the making and enforcement
of laws. The provisions in this
treaty relative to the introduction
of liquor into the Indian. country was
made for the purpose of keeping Ii
quor from the Indians and possibly
to prevent cutrages on the whites by
intoxicated Indians at the time when
there were but few settlers. Condi-
tions have changed since the treaty
was made"
In his letter Attorney Rogers out
lines the treaty situation in detail.

office as is an M. D.
Bid $50 Less.

meeting the present city physician
holds over.

that several members of the council
