A Congressman writing letter
of coincidence to the widow of the
late editor had this to say of The
Tomahawk: please also to say to
the present editor of The Toma-
hawk that l am always at the SER
vice of this splendid paper. You
may both command me at any
time.'
The testimony placed by this
gentleman, and that contained in
the letter of Mr.. Bsllinger pub
lished in this issue are both
gratifying and encouraging to the
present editor. The tribute reaches
back to the personality and policies
Of the late editor, these policies
the present editor is trying to
maintain and further.
Mr.. Ballinger says of The Toma-
hawk: Its support must come
largely from the Chippewa In
dians, whose interests it is con-
serving and protecting, and l trust
that the Indians will appreciate
this and render The Tomahawk
substantial support"

Senate Pays Tribute t
Late Senator Lane.

Washington, D. C.-The Senate
yesterday met in memorial session
to honor the late Harry Lane,
senator from Oregon. A dozer,
senators paid tribute to the rug
ged character of the late senator,
who was one of the "wilful ~"
who voted against the war, and
who was generally admired in the
senate for the firmness of some of
his convictions. Senator La Fol.
lette of Wisconsin alone attempted
anything that savored of a defense
of the stand taken by Senator
Lane in voting against war. The
other speakers were Senators
Gronna, Vardaman, Reed, Cham
kerlain, Husting, Kenyon, john
son of South Dakota and Norris.
The late editor of The Toma-
hawk always found helpful ally
in the late Senator Lane upon In
dian matters. We desire now to
link the memories of these two
departed men in the minds of all
Indians within the confines of this
country. The late editor was one
bound to the race by ties of blood,
the late Senator WAS one bound by
ties OF intense sympathy, and daily
association. during bis boyhood
days. Indians were, welcome
guests in his fathers pioneer home,
and Harry had Indian boys as bis
playmates. The present editor OF
The Tomahawk had the pleasure
of meeting the late Senator per-
sonally while in Washington last
winter, he found him socially a
pleasant man, and in the Senate
Indian Committee room, remark
ably alert on the side of Indian
delegations. The death of Senator
Lane was decided misfortune to
every Indian tribe in the country.

4 CORRECTION.

The item of last week stating
that suspicious rumor prevailed
in the village resulted in Mr.. Hin
ton making an inquiry. Mr.. W. A.
Brunette is the man with whose
name gossip got busy.
MIR. Brunette explained every
thing satisfactorily to the superin-
tendent. 1t is due to Mr., Brunette
also to say he asked the editor to
look at his time book and thus
see for himself the real situation.
The time book does not show
any Justification therefore the story
circulated in the village seemingly
was not true.

GIVES SECRET OF SUCCESS
Every Day as II Il Were to Be

my own method has been to live
every day as though it was the only
day had to live, and to crowd every
thing possible into that day. Pay no
attention to the clock or what you
are paid, but work and live for all
that is In it-just as you play foot

THE head of the table is the place
where there is most room. 1t is the
tree that grows and grows until 1t
Overtops the others that gets the most
air and sunshine. The thing for the
young man to do is to strive with all
the energy he possesses to excel in
actual ability.
Pull is not necessary. Nor should
young man bother too much about
his wages. I never asked an increase
in my life. You can command sooner
or later what you are entitled to|f

But you have got to be ultra prof.
cient in some particular thing. You
must stand out and do 1t better than
the fellows around you whether you
are an office boy, a stenographer or an
executive. You must use your head
as we'll as your hands. Don't be afraid
to do extra work lest it interfere with
