upon life boats and sometimes
simply pay no attention to stcug
Cling crews seeking safety. In
the recent North Sea naval en-
gagemept in which the Britalns

the German crews to put off from

j. s.. Lets Contract For
Indian Timber in State.

W ashington, D. C.-The United
States contract for timber on the
Red Lake Indian reservation in
Minnesota was awarded recently
to the International Falls Lumber
company, of which E. W. Backus
of Minneapolis is head. The high
bid was $40 thousand. 1t is es-
timated that there are 10000, 900
feet to be cut.
Other bidders we're the Clarke
Pole & Tie company of Bemidji,

This is sale of some consider

of sale are such as will insure &C.

by provisos, it might be that the

payers, the mixed blood on lands
and personal property, the full
blood on personal property alone.
Mr.. Rogers does not seem to
understand that Indians are al
ready subject to personal property
tax. If those of Beltrami county
have not been taxed upon personal
property. it must be due either to
the ignorance of county officials
or that the most of the Indians fall
below the exemption line.
The argument of Mr.. Rogers
however has merit, for in any
direction a man appreciates the
value of anything towards which
he has contributed personally,
either in money or labor. He feels
a sense of responsibility, right
to know how that which has con-
tributed has been employed,
whether it has been used -ex-
travagantly or wisely. If extrav-
agantly he has a right to kick, and
should kick.

At one time the White Earth
Indian office ignored the law which
provided for the preferential en-

on Minnesota reservations and the

Chippewas may be seen in the

of the local field.

at Beaulieu spoke of the1hdian as
a conquered people, AS we
understood the report of his say,
ing" he meant to use the term as
indicating that the Indian like the
child ''should be seen and not
heard:"
Some at Beau|ieu at the time
took exception to the term con
quered," and we agree in such
exception.
TO conquer means to overcome
an enemy.
The government on the whole
has not been at real war with the
aborigine, conflicts have indeed
ensued, but the conclusions Of ell
counter brought as many favorable
terms to the red man as to the
white. And never has the Indian
been denied the right of speech.
and the right to find fault.
One agent in the intensity of
his egotism did attempt to silence
the press, by closing the Progress,
a paper published and edited by
the late publisher of The ToMA-
HAWK and Theo. II. Beaulieu.
The Interior Department sus-
tanned the official but the Depart
ment of Justice did not, and a
court decided the agent to be "all
to the wrong"
The Progress obtained damages,
proceeded with its arguments
against the pin headed would-be
tyrant, lambasted him and he held
his peace-he had to.
The late editor of TIE TOMA-
HAWK spared neither headquarters
nor hind quarters, and the present
editor to carry out his policies up
on Indian matters is criticising in
like manner, for as Bureau and
Field are acting, the voice Of COM
plant is necessary.

Patriotism and Breadth.

The Sisters of St. gsBenedict's
Mission cannot be commended too
highly for their desire for men,
bership in the Red Cross Branch
here.
TIE Red Cross is not. an eccle-
siastical organization, and already
had within it's membership Catho-
lie lay ladies of large and patriotic
feelings, and who are doing grand
work for our army in which are
men and boys of all churches, and
no church.
They have been called to arms
by their country to fight the bat
ties of humanity and Righteousness,
and if the word ecclesia be taken
in its original sense and definition,
they form congregation of mill
tant Christianity, and should be
honored as a righteous force in the
worlds society:
The Sisters of St. Benedict's
Mission we presume are not COM
ing into the Branch as religious
body entire, but as individuals
but under a common impulse.
Their action is one OF lofty
character, one that will add to
their saintliness and broad phllan-
thropy.
Ordinarily tn ey act within rules
of their church, here they act
simply as tender hearted and lov-
ing Christian women, and patriotic
in addition.
And then when we consider that
they are moulding the character
of large number of children IN
their school, we may count on
their recent action as an influence
upon these children as lesson in
patriotism.
| The same Influence is being
brought to bear upon government
! school children by their teachers
and school elders, and therefore
good American citizens are being
created and educated.

It ia said that absence conquers

but if absence mas anything to do
with the lessening IN general of
the emotions, we promise our red
brethren that though for the time
being we are "of of the reserva-
|tion," we still maintain our fealty
to tribal interests, and when called
upon to criticise local conduct of
affairs we shall do 80 as readily
and cheerfully as though we we're
in the sanctume of The ToMA-
HAWK building and within sight of
the enemy. For the present the
editor is editing from a distance,
and though he disclaimes the
character of big gun, he still
feels that with the aid OF the post
office department he can fire with
as much effect as though he were
right on the ground.
At the present, sitting at our
desk, we have just finished paying
our compliments to the Indian
Office; this out of the way for
the week we feel that we must not
neglect the Agency Office.
We do not entertain undying
hatred against any Of the gentle
men of the Office or other force;
while at White Earth we main
tanned pleasant social relations,
even while criticising their official
acts, and in isolated cases their

The INJUNCTION SUIT

The attorney for the Chippewss,
sMr. Webster BaNiages has cer-
tainly not let the grass grow I'M
der his feet. ~
Following assiduous and untir
ing toll for weeks, on the part of
himself, his Office force and extra
help, he has concluded his state
ment of facts in the case now
pending before the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia.
Mr.. Ballinger is reasonably GER
tain that he will win the case. He
believes that it has worked up int o
a stronger case than the one now
pending in the Supreme Court of
the United States, which latter
case will be won beyond any
doubt.
Mr.. Ballinger was enabled to
plunge at once into the gathering
of data and facts by reason of tine
response to his appeal for funds
by individual donations.
The amount contributed upon
the White Earth, reservation ex-
ceeded all those from other reSer-
vations even computing upon a
per capita basis.
Had no response been made, Mr..
Ballinger's hands would have been
tied, and the suit would have been
lost by default.
And right here The Tomahawk
wishes to say that TOO many in
dividuals are not large enough
minded to look upon Chippewa
matters from the tribal point of
view. They are content to let
those who see broadly pay the
bills, and still do not lose sight of
the individual benefit they will
derive from the conservation of
tribal funds.
There were many who crowded
the doors of pay rooms early in
the mornings on payment days
recently, and who didn't subscribe
a cent towards litigation expenses
even though they we're asked.
We have alluded in the past to
the expenditures in time and
money oy the late editor and his
near associates; that allowing the
sole carrying of the burden by the
faithful few, is al imposition upon
them, and we now say that every
annuitant should be tribably
minded enough to tote fair' and
share OUTLAWS as we'll as incomes.
