What Shakespeare Did.

In Stratford during one of the Shakespeare jubilees, an American tourist approached an aged villager in smock, and said:
 "Who is this chap Shakespeare, any way?"
 ''He were writer, sir"
 "Oh, but there are lots of writers. Why do you make such an internal fuss over this one. Wherever 1 turn see Shakespeare hotels, Shakespeare cakes, Shakespeare chocolates, Shake speare shoes. What the deuce did he write-magazine stories, attacks on the government, shady novels?"
 ''No, sir; oh, no, sir said the aged villager q understand he writ for the Bible, sir"

Washington, D. C.,~-Jackson
Barnett, reputed to be the wealth
lest Indian in the United States,
has subscribed 500, 900 to Liberty
loan bonds through his guardian,
CALI. O'Hornett of Henryetta,
Okla. Secretary Lines ruling
that Barnett, who is ward of tue
government, might do this, opens
the way to many Indian subscrip-
tions.
Barnett, full-blood son of a
Creek chic ftain, derived MS wealth
from oil lands near Tulsa, Okla,
which he at first indignately re-
iected, declaring the tract fit only
for coyote and jackrabbits, and in
no wise suited to an Indian who
merely wanted to fish and hunt as
he pleased.
The discovery Of oil and the
lease of Barnett's land made the
Indian a millionaire, but he was
unable to handle his financial
affairs and guardian was appoint
ed for him. Barnette shows little
inrerest in the size of his fortune.
Last year he paid an income tax
estimated at $4,000.
Archbishop Mundelein Of Chica-
90 has subscribed $4,000 to Lib
erty bonds personally and issued a
statement in which he declares
1.-THE church considers it a positive
duty to assist this cation in every
way possible in gratitude for the
peace and liberty which the church
has enjoyed il the United States. ="
He has recommended every con-
gregation in his diocese to take at
least 500 of the bonds.

Interior Department Holds
Chippewa Funds Can
Be Used For Salaries,

AS anticipated the Interior De-
partment has held that Chippewa
tribal funds can be used legally lin
the payment Of salaries of employ
ees in the Chippewa Indian SER
vice.
In letter Ito Attorney Balm
ger the Secretary of the Interior
says:
II am in receipt Of your memo
randum in support of objections to
y the use of Chippewa trust funds OF
Chippewa Indians of Minnesota
for the payment of employees at
various Chippewa Indian Reserva-
tons IN Minnesota.
Il have carefully considered
this matter, and have reached the
conclusion that the use of these
funds for the payment of employ
ees at the above reservations IS
fully justified by law, and l am In
able to agree with your contention
and the Act Of May IS, 1916 (39
Stats. l34). requires the dismissal
of regularly appointed employees
and the employ ment of Chippewa
Indians where the present incumb-
ents are not Chippewa Indians
without regard to Civil Service.
Following the Departments de-
cision Mr.. Ballinger Immediately
commenced the preparation OF a
bill to be filed in the United States
Supreme Court OF the District of
Columbia to afford the Chlppewas
the relief and protection relative
to their tribal fumes which they
have so long sought.

Is This A Free Country?

The wholesale arrests that are
being made by federal authorities,
according to the large daily news
papers which. are accused of being
subsidized by Wall Street, because
the persons arrested have express
ed themselves as being opposed to
war, or joining in the European
war, are creating such a bitter
feeling that internal strife is be-
coming more dangerous than the
war now is.
,Timid persons fear to express
their opinions against the wal,
while the fearless ones are becom-
inc rebellious over the efforts to
restrain any expressions against
joining the allies.
The daily newspapers of large
circulation are doing all they can
TO intimidate the public. The
president of the Farmers Non
partisan League, A. G. Townley,
is being abused by the daily news
papers because he does not fear to
tell the truth. Among the papers
which make threats against Mr..
Townley is the Fargo Forum.
If violence should be done to
Mr.. Townley the Forum would to
a great extent be responsible for
this.
The war question is one which
zhoth sides to the question should
be allowed to discuss freely, for il
will surely be the most prominent
factor in next years general cleo
ton. and one which will without
doubt sweep the country in favor
OF o2position to the war.

expenses for the entire time, only
extended to the 1st Of March, and
in order to pay the hotel bill from
that time on it was necessary to
get additional authority. Had 1t
been thought earlier that Con-
gress would run longer than the
1st of March, that limitation would
not have been put in the bill. SO
it stands precisely like the other,
only there is no provision for pay
ing it,
page 500 of Hearings on Indian
Appropriation Bill 1919
Every person who was a dele
gate to the General Council at
Bemidji knows that Jim Coffey did
not tell the Senate Indian Com
mittee the truth when he made the
statement that any referance what
ever was made in the council re-
gardiug the subject Of his discus
sion to the committee. Neither
the expenses of the publisher nor
of Mr.. Madison while a: Washing
ton representing the Chippcwas of
Minnesota were discussed or in
any way referred to, and not a
delegate WHO WAS there would take
the responsibility of contradicting
this.
No delegate can visit Washing
ton and make statements that are
not true without having to meet
them some time before the very
body before which he made his
misre representations, so that for the
interests of the Chippewas it is
always better that their delegates
should be compelled to keep with
in the bounds Of truth, and to send
as delegates only those who will
do so.

Can Speak For Itself
Only.

In an editorial the Minneapolis
Tribune criticlscs Congressman
Lundeen in the following man
ner:
'Secretary Lensing insists for
the benefit of Ernest Lundeen and
the ro-German Socialists that no
private person has the right to
attempt TO negotiate a peace for a
government. At that, however,
Minneapolis would like to see Sec
rotary Lansing give Lundeen a
passport to the Stockholm confer
ence or to any other point outside
the United States, without prive
lege of return.'
Is the Tribune the mouth piece
for Minneapolis, and when was
that authority delegated to it?
1t needs a COW ersatlon with
only any fifteen or twenty persons
in Minneapolis to convince the
most skeptical that anGoverwheIm-
ing majority of the public there
approve of Mr.. Lunoeen's posi-
ton.

JUDGE FOR YOURSELVES.

Inasmuch. as the publisher of
THE ToMAHAwK has declined the
appointment of delegate to the Be.
midi council in July and therefore
will not be present to submit to the
Council a part of Jim Coffey' s
statement made to the committee
on Indian affairs Of the United
States Senate last January, he
takes this method of making
known to the Chippewas of Min.
nesota the manner in which irres-
ponsible persons sometimes pre-
sent matters to the authorities at
Washington whenever they have
an opportunity to do so.
Last year while the Indian APP
preparation bill was pending in
congress the Chippewa delegation,
except the publisher who was left
TO look after the bill, returned to
their respective homes. Before
they left, however, William Madi-
son arrived at Washington and
was appointed a delegate by j. G..
Morrison, president of the Gener-
al Council, to assist the publisher
in looking after Chippewa matters.
Although the bill for the ex-
penses of the delegation was
drawn by the publisher, he con-
fined it to January, February and
March, SO that the expenses in
Cured after the latter named
mouth were cut out. The Indian
office allowed the account, but the
Treasury Department disaIIowed
it on a technicality. The publish
er paid both his own and Madi-
sons bill as the Office stated it
Wo3Id. recommend an appropria-
ton to be made at the following
session of congress to reimburse
The Tomahawk. [volume] (White Earth, Becker County, Minn.) 1903-192?, 1917-06-21
the amount paid.

Vic iluOulC palu.
This matter never came up at
the Bemidji General Council meet
ing last year, but Jim Coffey went
before the senate committee one
day when the publisher was absent
and made the following statement:
Il find an item here on the In
dian appropriation bill that was
submitted to the General Council
of the Chippewas of Minnesota
last July by Mr.. Beaulieu, and it
Was rejected ut that council. That
is the paying to William Madison
a certain snm of money for some
services that he is alleged to have
performed here in the city Of
Washington for the Chippcwas of
Minnesota. That was thrashed
out there last summer, and Mr..
Madison-it was introduced by
Mr.. Beaulie,,-and Mr.. Beaulieu
and Mr.. Madison both were asked
to explain what services it was
they performed here for the Chip
pewas of Minnesota, and they we're
unable to offer any explanation or
anything that would satisfy the
council, and so it was voted on and
rejected at the council"

tell you about that. There was
provision put in the bill last year
to pay the expenses of the delegH-
ton.

congress would adjourn in March.
The services of these two men was
simply the general services of a
delegation and did not differ from
any other, but congress did not
adjourn until long after the 4th of
March. The consequence was that
