does protest and ooject and justly
so, and no person, Of whatever
race or creed, with an atom OF
manhood in his makeup, would
tolerate such contemplate prop
osition much less meekly submit
to it, and don't you forget it.
And 20 cap the climax Of this
series of brazen subterfuge the
hectoring henchman Of the Indian
bureau, honest j. H. Hinton.
who, has been fostered on the
bounty Of the White Earth Chip
pewas for these many years, took
occasion on August 10Th, 1918. to
publish and distribute carbon
copies of a solid four page type
written letter, addressed to some
OF tue prominent business men and
county officials, citing among other
egregious presumptions, the terri,
bic consequences which would
follow the aggregation and appor,
tionment of the tribal funds, :" as
also the Establishment of the board
ing school, agency and warehouse, !"
ETC.. etc. That only "a very few
selfish mixed bloods desired,such q
proceeding should take place, etc.
And this in spite of the very potent
declaration of the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs in Hearings before
the Committee on Indian Affairs,
United States Senate, IS Congress,
H. r. 1896, Monday, Fob. IL,
1918, page $780," to wit as follows:
ION the White Earth reservations.
the most populous reservation OF
the Chippewa country, where they
have ABOUT 5000 Indians, they
practically oil have received pat
ents, and 80 per cent of the adult
Indians are no longer under the
jurisdiction of the, Federal Gov
ernment.'' And all of theses90 per
cent people Of the White Earth
reservation demand, have demand
ed for the past several years, that
the tribal funds be segregated and
apportioned per capita to every
person entitled and notwithstand-
ing the perverted assertions of
honest" John H. Hinton to the
contrary.
