General Armstrong, . distingui
shed friend and educator Of the
Indians, was fond Of telling this
story concerning the class Of men
the government generally ap
points to fill the position of Indian
agent on Indian reservation. Chief
Fire Cloud, of the Sioux reserva'
ton, was selected to make an ad-
dress at very large church con-
ference where we're present many
good friends of the Indian. Fire
Cloud said: when the white man
wants to raise wheat, be plants
wheat; when he wants to raise corn
he plants corn; when he wants to
raise potatoes, he plants potatoes,
but when the government wants to
raise good Indians bad white men
generally are sent who plant bad
seed among us ard which raises
hell with the Indian generally. "
And, from past experience, the
Minnesota Chippewas, the pro
qressives classes especially. know
10 their sorrow that the latter
rrtion of Fire Cloud speech is
virtually true. s.y

The Indian will not be- q true
citizen until Congress abolishes the
Indian bureau. That would free
the Indian and give him his. citi-
zenship, not as an Indian, but on
tho basis of a man to nam. The
high and noble principle of this
righteous war must be applied to
the Indian race, namely, freedom,
equal rights, democracy, humanity
and justice God grant that, that
day is near.-Wasssja.

This Means You!

Now that the war is practically
over don't permit yourselves to
slacken interest in the war work.
Remember we have some 1000, 900
brave, loyal and noble boys ''over
there" who have to be provided
for and to be returned back to
home, families and friends. Then
again don't, for a minute, let your
liberality waver in the blessed
cause of christian philanthropy
but let your zeal quicken every ef-
fort to provide much needed re-
lief for the millions who are star
wing as we'll as clothing to clothe
the naked. Remember too, the
throngs of orphan waits and the
legions of wounded and she'll torn
crippled soldiers. The latter went
through the very horrors of hell
for the cause If humanity, liberty
and world democracy and the as
surance of . blessed and lasting
peace. Don't waste time in tell
ing what should be done but get
busy and DO 1T, do it now. Give,
give literally and don't shy be.

have done ''your SHARE" because
we can never repay the debt we
owe the brave men and for what
they did for us. And don't forget

you worked and worked with them
And now here comes the Society
of American Indians, passed in
their platform and resolutions con-
demning the Indian bureau. It
appears incredible and very map
preciative.on the part of the Society
Well, something had to break soon
er or later. Things can go the ex-
treme. That point has come on In
dian matters. Astand had to be
made and the Society has taken
that stand for the best interest of
the Indians To forbear any longer
would be unpatriotic when the
country is fighting for freedom and
all that is just. 1t is upon that basis
we Indians expect 10 wage our
fight for our rights. We see clearly
that in order to be free men and
women, We must have the Indian
bureau that hinders our freedom,
abolished. To overlook the Indians
in this matter is betraying this
righteous war. If we have been
misled, let US be honest and get in
the right road and work as never
before for the emancipation of the
Indian race. Who has better
right to freedom and citizenship,
on the American soil, than the In
dian race? And yet these vital prin-
ciples are denied to them. Can you
blame the Society of American
Indians, that is composed of lndi-
ans, for taking the stand they have
doneY Remember, the Indians
freedom will not only help the In
dams, but it will help the country.

Redeem Your Pledge For
War Saving Stamps

Patriotic people of Minnesota
are out to make record in the
redeeming of pledges for War
Saving Stamps. They have already
proven themselves loyal by pledg-
ing approximately $4,000. OF this
amount there is still $18, 1000, 900
outstanding in unredeemed pledges.
All of these pledges must be re
deemed in order to put Minnesota.
in its proper place among the
patriotic States of the Union. 4
The State Committee has just
launched a campaign in which a
check is being made upon every
unredeemed pledge in the State.
Special representatives have been
assigned to each county, and every
place where pledges have been
lodged for collection will be visited
apd the date in connection with
unredeemed pledges will be taken
by these representatives and same
will be investigated through the
State Committee with a determin-
alton by the Committee that there
will be DO unredeemed pledges
outstanding by December 81, 1918,
at which time the 1918 campaign
for the State closes. ~.ss 1872.
Minnesota has enjoyed in most
districts = most prosperous year,
says State Director Donald S.
Culver. while we have suffered
terrible catastrophe in some of
our northern counties, it should
be the determination of other
counties to absorb the War Saw
ings Stamps which normaHy would
have been taken by these counties
Tie cash sales in Minnesota
amount to approximately $22, 500
900 to date, and if each individual
at this time redeems any pledge
outstanding in bis name, We can
very materially increase these
figures. = -. -
I'VE are now approaching the
season of the year when the
thought of giving occurs to all of
Us, and l earnestly hope that q
large portion of the money which
under normal conditions would be
spent for non-essentials and gifts

CREELIsH SENSE OF HUMOR

George Creeps speech in which he thanked God for our unpreparedness is not the only striking utterance which he has made since the war be- gan. Itis now recalled that, on April 16, 1917, ten days after the declara- tion of war, Creel spoke at meeting of the Labor Forum in New York, held at the Washington Irving high school, from the same platform whence James H. Maurer few days before had exclaimed, "To hell with the Stars and Stripes"
 Creel took occasion to refer to the Maurer incident and he declared that "people should not worry whether MT Maurer actually did say to hell with the Stars and Stripes'-' and he was unable to proceed because his audience hissed, made loud protests and began singing America.
 Of course, to a man who thanks God that America entered the war un. prepared, it could be of no great mo. ment that anyone should seek to send the American flag to perdition. But to the Nation, which revers the flag and deplores our unpreparedness, it is of large significance that such mar should be in a position where all the official information which the govern. ment desires to give to the people is first filtered through his hands.

BENEATH HUMAN CONTEMPT

The Rear Guards attack on The Sun needs no answer-it answers it. self, except in one particular, and that is the contemptible statement: Isn't it horrible to think of the Colonel employing a man who has not volun- teered?" It is alright to pull all your venom on The Sun, but no self respecting person who claims to be a newspaper man, ever stoops to drag in employees who are in no way responsible for the action of the editor of the paper.
 To show the extent of the venom and the injustice to Mir. W. l.. Taylor, foreman of The Sun office, it is known that he has a wife and child, but in spite of that fact, did VOLUNTEER, as we'll as put in several months hard study to fit hinSelf for the work. If he is not in the army right at this time, it is not his fault.
 To mention an employee in such contemptible manner is enough, but to deliberately insinuate and lie about one who has gone as far as he can go until he is called by his country, can not be described in decent or polite language

HUNT FEARS THE MOB"

George Willy Paul Hunt has done some funny things since he was in- flicted on Arizona, but the funniest is refusal to give Dr. Blome hearing at Flagstaff because of his fear of "mob violence" This is a brand new one and the left-handed compliment will be appreciated in Coconino.
 This fear on the part of the state executive leads to some queer ques- tions if properly analysed. A while back there was trouble, bitter trouble, at Globe and Miami sand, at that time, murder and arson were in the air. The governor had no faintest fear of going up there and risking his prec- ious life while now, he is confessedly afraid to go to peaceful Flagstaff, where the only bone of contention is the principalship of a school.
 Can it be that the governor fears the Flagstaff mob because it is not made up of his dear friends, the wobblies?
 He has every right to fear the de cent people of any Arizona community but not in the way he pretends to feaI them. His fears will be most comb bletely justified when the ballots are cast at the next election.--Verde Copper News.

GOV. HUNTS LIBERALITY

Among the purposes for which Governor George w. F. Hunt has call ed the legislature in special session as stated in the call is the following:
 "To reimburse Honorable Thomas E. Campbell for his services as de facto governor of the State of Ari- zona during the period January 27, 1917, to December p, 1917."
 When the conscience of one who is in possession of something which be- longs to you begins to hurt, he often times offers restitution and that is what Hunt is asking the legislature to do in this case If Hunt is really entitled to the office, why should the taxpayers be penalized and forced to pay the salary of the governor twice !? Is Hunt conscience stricken over ac- cepting that three or four thousand dollars which Tom Campbell earned and which thousands of Arizonans be- lieve he was entitled to, the verdict of the Supreme court notwithstanding ?
 There is no certainty that the legis- lature will feel the same bangs of conscience as Hunt and follow his recommendation, but if they do pass
The Coconino sun., 1918-04-26

such law, we hope Tom Campbell will decline the money with thanks, refusing to mulct the taxpayers be- cause another has been given the compensation which he earned.
 Tom Campbell was given as raw a deal as any man who was ever elect ed to public office in any state and we do not wonder that even Hunt feels in his heart that Campbell is entitled to the money which he received and now wants to make restitution, but at the expense of the taxpayers of the state.
 If Hunt wants to square himself, let him dig up the money from his own pockets. He cannot contend that he ever earned it by services to the peo- pie of the state. Then why should he retain it? If he wants to make resti- tuition, let him dig up.

YELLOW NOT POPULAR HERE

The daily scandal seems to have busted their hay press-at least they sorter helped Hunt make Sheriff Dick inson pull some chestnuts out of the fire when he wasn't looking. We are willing to make long bet, that Bill wasn't looking when they pulled that "Normal Outlaw Stuff" on him. We'll make another strong bet that there is no yellow streak" of that kind in Bill Dickinson's system and let any one who thinks there is try it out. "Yellow" never was very good color around this vicinity and never will be as long as the people know the actual facts.

Mrs. Susie Morse, pioneer lady of Flagstaff, who is now making her home in Navajo county, stopped over Saturday while on her return home from visit with relatives in Califor- nia. She was the guest of Mrs. Eva Marshall while here.
 David Tate, former business man of Flagstaff, who has been making his home in Los Angeles for the last couple of years, has been visiting friends here for several days. Mir. Tate still retains holdings in Flag staff and from his talk intimated that he might possibly become resident again of this city.
 Sgt. Bob Koch is at home from the officers training camp at Camp Kearny with white strip on his arm. The white strip does not mean that he has "surrendered", but merely that he will be commissioned officer as soon as there is room for another one among the many new organizations being made up. Bob is so well up on the skyline that they have been thinking of transferring him to the anti-air craft bunch, but wherever they assign him he will always be ready to step lover the top" with the rest.

Thank heavens! Another week has passed and Governor Hunt has not been compelled to call out his "person- al representative" to protect the peo- pie of Flagstaff from mob violence from the "vicious W. w.

W. element has been given clean bill of health for the time being, but we'd hate to have that big bunch of "out- laws" at the Normal school out on a campaign of "We Want Information" under existing conditions and admins tration.

While the whole national, state and other impedimenta, are pulling with all their might and main against The Sun, in every financial way-person- ally, national and local way, we ven ture to say that they can't buy enough preachers" or poeratrats to pound our patriotism down below local finan- cial par.
