Wants indians Taxed.

In regard to taxation Of Indian
lands, William Rogers has the
following to say in the Cass Lake
Times:
This is something that every
body would be glad to see in this
county Il mean in Reltrami coun-
ty), and also in all the counties
that are connected with any In
dian lands, by which l mean lands
that have no taxes levied On them,
and in these lands we have 10
roads. If the Indians could be
taxed on a small percentage to
start with to teach US what it
means, we would know what we
are paying this for. We would not
know what it is for until we began
to see the roads and then we would
know why we are paying this
money. We would then realize
that we are not throwing money
away. But this could only be
taxed on personal property and
could notrbe done with real estate.

It is this awkwardness, and more,

this at the bottom is what Dr.:
Montezuma means when he says
the Indians must stand together. !
He means that single handed,
no Individual can deal satisfactor-

can deal with the Office with good
and pleasant results, and that if
anything is to be accomplished it
is for the Indians of the country:
to ''whoop together" to make the

hunting ducks near Rush Lake,
Wis.,, United States Senator Paul
O. Husting died at = farm house
at Picketts, nearby, on October
23rd.
Senator Husting had recently
returned to his home at Mayville,

With his brother, .Gustave, he
had gone on . hunting exped ition

In a recent issue We published
parts of 4 private lester of DR..
Montezuma's to the editor in which
occurred tho words: This country
is growing wonderfully. Different
races are growing. and making
themselves stronger in every way.
II Cap zee that in q few years
the Indians must stand alone, and
together grow strong like other
nations.
In these words DR.. Montezuma
means to convey the idea, not th bat
the Indilns must create an Indian
nation within the American ra-
ton, but that they must bear IN
mind constantly a racial conscious
ness and thus enable them to have,
and to unity all the longings aud
ambitions of a people feeling race
pride, and = desire to perpetuate
the ties which should bind the red
race of this country, no matter
how vide apart in distance terri
torially, or how varied tribal
properly interests. All who call
themselves aboriginsls or merely
descendants, will feel the force of
DR.. Montezuma's phrases, for
racially the Indian does stand alone
as contrasted with the white race,
and tribally standing alone they
should enlarge the unit 50 as to
make all one; in the doctors Ian
guage, stand together.''
The Indian failed in the past
because he placed too much stress
upon his tribal standing. In the
past, wars ensued between tribes
by reason of tribal sentiment and
which was only natural and per-
haps unavoidable before the ad
vent of tho white man.
But conditions have changed
the white man has gained the su:
premacy in the land. We believe
now that the old conditions of an
tagonisms between the red mec
tribes having passed, and the mill
tary conflicts between the white
people and the red having ceased,
we as Indians. are justified to grow
strong like other groups within
the nation. There is at this time
much trou BILE in this country BY
the over emphasis of blood by the
Germans, we mean by somes anc
who have clung too closely to the
motherland and sympathizing with
her, have forgotten the honor ano
fealty due to their land of adop
ton.
We as Indians should not Sc
emphasize onr blood as to fee
that we have no part in the Ameri
can Nation.
We may feel our distinction o.
race without sacrificing our sense
of belonging to the American
people.
