Congressman Ellsworth and

all minor children can be obtained
for their use without repeated
visits to the Office Of the superin
tendent at expense and time and
long delays resulting from ccrres-
pondence with the Indian Bureau.
The children will get the benefit
of their money and the tribe will
be relieved of an expense that
during past years has aggregated
$3.50 per 'annum in handling
these little petty accounts. The
tribal money heretofore recklessly
expended for such purposes be-
longs to the individual members Of
the tribe and by this saving this
money will ultimately be distribut-
ed per capita among the members.
Last week the Indian Bureau
instructed Superintendent Hinton
to furnish Mrs. Peter Bray a suf1i-
cient amount of the funds of her
minor children with which to pur.
chase seed this spring for her
farm. Superintendent Hinton did
not comply with the directions.
Mrs. Bray communicated with the
Legislative Committee in WASH

taken up with the Indian Bureau
and peremptory order sent Hin

with the Bureaus instructions.
Hinton did the same thing with
reference to an order sent him in
the case of Robert Hallett who de.
sired to use part of his children's
money in purchasing team, har-

There's going 10 be a big adjustment
