Following Prof. Ackerman's

after the band had played Amer
ican," with those who knew the
anthem joining ia song.
The following petition was adopt.
ed after the draft plan protest

the crowd Of 5000 persons The
petition is:
"Avowing our loyalty to this
country and pledging in its de-
Tense, the highest sacrifices IT, the
extent of life itself if need be, and
with full realization of the diff
culties that beset government in
times of war, we respectfully petit
ton the Presiden: and Congress of
this nation not to transport of
force across the ocean to the bat
tie fields of Europe any men out
side of the regular army contrary
to their desires, but that this mat
ter be left to voluntary enlist
ments."

Minnesota Supreme Court
Holds Red Lake Indian
Vote Illegal.

The Supreme Court of Minnesota,
in a decision handed down recently,
held that the vote of the Red Lake
Indians upon the question of county
option, and through which Bel
trami County went wet, is illegal
because they had not received allot-.
ments of land in severalty and are
therefore not citizens.
While THE ToMAHAwK is not IN
any way in sympathy with the sale
of intoxicants to either whites or
Indians, and it may i'll become the
editor of an Indian reservation
newspaper to question supreme
court decision, still we insist that
nearly all, il not all, the Indians
up,n the Red Lake reservation
are citizens of the state and have
the right to vote upon any question
which applies to Minnesota's laws.
As citizens Of the United States,
the supreme court livery property
holds that the Red Lake Indians
are not such citizens because they
have not yet received al:otments
of land in severa!ty. But the
question which the supreme court
passed upon was one which ap
plies to the laws of Minnesota ex-
clusively.
1t is true, in order to become
citizens of Minnesota, full-blood
Indians would have to go before
the Judge Of district court IN
Minnesota and Declare that they
had adopted the customs and
habits of civilization and to also
renource their tribal relations, but
with regard to mixed, bloods it IS
different. Under the Constitution
of Minnesota the latter become
automatically citizens of the state,
and it is extremely doubtful
whether there IS full-blood
Indian at Red Lake; all have
a strain of white blood. This
question was probably not rails
ed before The supreme court
by the attorneys for the Indian
voters, and the court no doubt
assumed that they were all full
bloods instead of all mixed-bloods.
The St. Paul Dispatch states
that. 1T is indicated furthcr'', by
the court, that because an Indian
cannot legally buy Intoxicating
liquor he should not be allowed to
vote at county option elections. ="
This proposition is illogical be
cause the same rule could be ap-
piled to habitual white drunkards
who are not, under state laws, per-
r1itted to buy Intoxicating liquor
any more than are persons with
Indian blood. Because a man OF
Indian blood cannot buy intnxi
cants under Minnesota's laws he
should Lot be deprived of the right
to vote upon any question under
state laws any more than habit
ual drunkard is deprived of this
right or any right as a citizen of
the state.

Poles and the martyred nation of
Armenia? Well if not opposed to
aid for the sufferers, the innocent
sufferers by the WARRIOR certainly
nobody can think of the Belglans
or the Poles or the Armenians as
any other than innocent sufferers
why so averse to any effort to
put stop to the Kaiser's devilish
work? Do they wish to be under.
stood as willing to- relieve suffering
but utterly opposed to anything
that would arrest the violence and
brutality and ruthlessness of those
who impose that suffering?
But if that is not the attitude of
every one opposed to vigorous
prosecution of the war, in what
respect is it not fairly. stated?--
Minneapolis Tribune.
The Minneapolis Tribune in the
foregoing editorial puts up very
poor argument as against the con-
tention of these who are so strong-
ly opposed to sending their boys
to foreign lands to be killed for
the innocent sufferers of those
lands.
It has never been known in the
history of the world where any
country plunged itself into war to
relieve the innocent sufferers'
of land in which it had no inter-
est whatever except from a hu-
manitarjan standpoint, but has
always confined itself to the wei
fare of it's own citizens at home.
Does the Tribune believe for a
moment that the Belgians. the
Poles and the Armen1ans would
become involved in war on behalf
of the United States If it we're
placed in the same predicament as
the allies, and that those nations
are really the cause of the Euro
pean war?
Why does not the Tribune come
out candidly and say that the
European war was started origin
ally to avenge the death of crown
prince, and that other European
countries became involved in it on
account of their kings and emper-
ors.
Those who favor war have given
no good reason why the United
States should have become involv~
ed in the European war. They at
first gave the sinking of the Lusia-
tania, foreign vessel, which. had
a few Americans on board as a
reason why Wall Streets appeal
to plunge the country into war on
behalf of the allies should be
Needed, then this was followed by
the same influences against Ger
many's submarine warfare, and
now the Tribune says the Kalser's
devilish work. brutality and ruth
lessness against the enemies of his
country is a sufficient reason why
socialists and paci6sts of this
country should favor vigorous
prosecution of the war.
During the past week a draft
took place. Had the war been
popular it would not have been
necessary at the very outset to
cause a draft to be had. If the
war continues as predicted by army
officers for at least two years
longer, many will be the door
that will have crepe hanging to its
knob, many will! be the homes that
will be in mourning during the
lives of the parents of the boys
who will be killed in Europe. In
the course of two year war in
Europe the United States will not
confine itself to drafting only
young men between the ages of
twenty-one and thirty-on one years,
but will before long take everyone
who is not too old to stand tie

Protest Against Draft at
New U|n0.

OrOuS protests to be raised against
it generally.
At New UIm last week Thurs
day big meeting was held and
many speeches made against send
ingFyoung men to Europe to aid
the allies.
The Pioneer Press contained the
following account OF the meeting,
or in part the following:
I'VE aave the right to say that
if the plutocratic government of
the present tine, ruled by the
kings of Wall Street, does not ap-
peal to the people we may change
it to such form of government as
will give rs the most happiness
he said.
CAPTAIN Steinhauser assaulted the
government for SURPRISING news
papers that have protested against
the war and the draft and gave
credit TO the Nonpartisan league
for it's attitude on these matters.
F. H. Retzlaff, hardware dealer,
another peace delegate, and whose
son Armin is among the drafted
ones from New Ulm. was the next
speaker. Mr.. Retzlaff spoke with
fierce frenzy and reused the great
|crowd to high pitch of excite
ment.
IL was warned not to say any
thing here tonight,'' he said, be
cause three secret service men
were here" -
Shouts of don't. be afraid"<s and
fs'we are with YOU came from the
crowd.
IF the time ever comes,'' con-
continued Mr.. Retzlaff, when l
will not stand up for our boys who
have been drafted the blood will
not be circulating in my veins. If
there are any secret service men
here let them come up and sit be-
side US on the platform.
mayor Fritsche, Mr.. Pfaender
and myself were accused of calling
this meeting. 1t is false. 1t WAS
called by the drafted men of this
city and community, who came to
US and asked US if we would stand
by them and see that they got a
square deal.
Can you blame US fathers for
seeing that our sons get their
rights? We are going to stand by
our boys regardless of what hap
| pens, and l want every one of you
to sign this petition to protect our
boys from going over the seas to
give their lives in the slaughter
pens of Europe"
Prof. Martin J. Wagner of the
DR.. Martin Luther college mere
and Prof. Adolph Alderman,
president of the college, were the
last speakers. Prof. Wagner was
one of those drafted.
He urged action Oh the part of
the people to prevent drafted men
from being sent abroad. If called
upon to fight any nation invading
the shores of this country, he said.
he would be one of the first to re-
spond.
He called the war undemocTatic
and said our representatives should
represent the people before the
President.
Prof. Alderman made a vigor-
Gus attack on Representative Ellis
worth of this district, asserting he
had found it useless to appeal to
him for JUSTICE.

rights in this war;" he said. why
did we not fight Great Britain,

PRESENT BOARD
TO ALTER RULES
TO CHECK MAYOR
Supervisors Farewell Act win
Be to Vest Appointive
Power in Board

To make 1t smoother sailing for the
Republican members Of the new
board OF supervisors, the present
board, before il ends its existence,
plans to change the rules and regula-
tions governing its procedure in order
that the appointing OF standing COM
mittees will be taken out of the hands
Of the mayor and vested in the board
itself, according to plans unfolded by
the members. They also are planning
to add a clause which will definitely
state that if tho mayor, as chairman
Of the board or any onS appointed in
the mayors absence, refuses to put
a motion it may be put by a member
Of the board.
By making these changes now it Is
believed lat less friction will result:
and the board as a whole can get
down to business much quicker as It
will simply amount to a motion being
put that the old rules be adopted as
the permanent rules Of the new board.
With the Republican members in the
majority present members say the
new rules should pass without an un-
due amount of discussion and the Re
publican members take the commit
teeships they want.
The newly elected board of super,
yisors will hold its first meeting at
II O'Clock Monday, July 2. The county
clerks office is now working hard to
get everything in readiness for the &C.
casion. Everyone connected with the
office worked Sunday morning and
also this morning TO catch up with
the work which mas run behind be-
cause of the recent elections.
A work of special Importance which
David Kalauokalani, county clerk, is
preparing is data for the benefit of
the new members in order that they
may take their offices with a clearer
understanding of their duties. This
includes the names of all city and
county employees with the salary each
receives and general resume of the
work which the old board Is bequeath-
ing their successors.
Kalauokalani is also preparing a
schedule of procedure for the first
meeting, which will consist OF the
meeting being called together by
Mayor Fern followed by the report OF
the credentials committee The roll
call will then be taken, the, chaplain
will offer up q prayer and the board
will be ready for regular business.
The first business Of importance to
be taken up is.the adoption of rules
and regulations, to govern the proceed
ure Of the board for the next two
years. Action viii then be taken on

Center Drive On
Wisconsin Cities
IN Draft Fight
fRy united Press.l

Chicago, H., May 81. - Federal
operators In the Middle West in
terested in the nationwide drive
against the anti-conscription plot
today centered their attention ON
Wisconsin With four arrests of
alleged plotters in Chicago it was
announced that the real work was
to be done in Wisconsin and that
Federal grand juries would be
called in Milwaukee or Madison or
possibly in both cities within the
next few days for the indictment of
plotters. 1t is said that ramifica-
lions of the alleged plot extend to
many places in Wisconsin and that
a score of arrests would be made
IN Milwaukee, Madison, Beloit and
Fond du Lac and possibly in other
cities in Wisconsin. T. J. Barry
will open special bureau of the
secret service in Milwaukee on Fri
day and it is possible that another
bureau will be opened at Madison
on the same day. It is declared
that Wisconsin is honeycombed
with objections to the CONSUMPTION
law.
