The Tomahawk., 1918-03-07

the Hon. Commissioner of Indian
Affairs and published in The
ToMAHAwK about year ago.
Among Mr.. Gibbs initial remarks:
TN the brief and only talk l had
with Mr.. Sells after my appoint
ment, he asked me to report upon
the short comings of the Office as
we'll IS of the field, and l have
certainly done 20 according to
promise, but have never bad a
work of approval or rebuke for
the many radical faults l have
found and reported in no uncertain
terms. ~ From association and
contact with the Indian have be-
come convinced that his treatment
by the government is one OF con
tinued error beaped upon initial
mistake. Originally segregated
upon reservations in order to in
sure the safety of the whites who
were Jhinly settled in outlying ter
ritory, the continuation of suchIa
policy after the full attainment Mt
It's purposes has operated to deny
the development, the amslgamation
and the civiliz ,tion of the Indians
in the fulfllment of their manifest
destiny. This proposition is proven
by the undeniable fact that those
Indians who have cut loose from
the government have progressed
far ahead of those who are still in
serfdom as its wards. y
''This serfdom is a greater re-
proach 70 this nation than was the
slavery of the negro. The tenure
of the title to his lands, and. the
holding of his funds by the govern
ment are sometimes used to coerce
him into compliance with govern
ment requirements, thus sapping
independence and under mining his
character. Therefore, if there be
|decadsnce4 ia the MASH ,od ost"rsae
old Indians thus treated, the gov
ernmeut is responsible and tho
government owes support to those
Indians it has ruined, and educa-
ton to their children to keep them
from being ruined also. Its activ-
tiles should stop there. The very
plan of the Indian office to encour-
age industry among the Indians by
giving a few favored individuals
the use of reimbursable funds with
out interest is an encouragement in
the continuation Of unbusinesslike
methods.
"Everywhere there are capable

Achievements.

We read with pleasure the COM
munication of our Washington cor
respondent which we published on
Feb. 18th. 1t was a happy Incl
dent that the communication was
published on St. Valentines Day,
thus enabling our correspondent
to convey pleasant tidipgs to our
readers under the patronage Of the
little messenger of love. The story
was not Of the love that stirs sexes
nor coucbed in terms Of poetry,
and ILLUSTRATED with flowers and
transfxed hearts, Uut u VS. tale
of lovely poetic justice, :: therefore
we may say therein is love" AS
our correspondent truly said, "The
Legislative Committee of the Chip.
pewa General Council is accom-
plishing splendid results in their
efforts to protect the funds of the
Chippewa Indians and to secure d
final settlement of the affairs OF
the Chippewa Indians with the
United States"
But we ask our readers to recall
that the initiative to the the work
now being performed was with the
late publisher of The TOMAHAwK,
Gus. H. Beaulieu, he always con
tended against extravagent> expen-
ditures and illegal appropriation
of the Chippewa trust fund.
: He it was who in the past Sc
cured saving clauses in approprla .
ton bills even though the Indian
Office subsequently disregarded
them. .......
He it was who conceived the
idea of an Injunction suit and Sc
cured the services of Webster
Ballinger who is ably and fearless
ly performing his duty as attorney
for the Chippewas, and it was the
late publisher who paid the attor
ney his retaining fee.
The legislative committee is
fortunate in having secured the aid
of Senator Gronna for the further
ance of the rights of the Chippe-
was of Minnesota.
The writer hereof was with his
brother when he asked Senator
Gronna last winter to take Senator
CIapp's interest in the Chippewas,
and to do what Senator Clapp
might have done had he been re
turned to the Senate. Senator
Gronna:s answer given earnestly
and sincerely was, You may rest
assured Mr.. Beaulieu that will
do all liz my power. lie IS re-
deeming his promise.
Dat of past misforsunes and mis-
understandings the members of
the committee have learned the
way o: sound procedure and are
working effectively.
For one thing, they. have learned
the nature of Mr.. James !. Coffey.
The late Mr.. Beaulieu had known

'THE ZEPPELIN'S LAST RAID '

THE Zeppelin's Last Raid" the great
Thomas H. Ince spectacle is expected
to attract enthusiastic audiences to the
Isis theatre, where lovers of the unique
in screen production will revel in the
wonders and novelties presented to
them by Mr.. Ince, the producing genius
of the times.
The dominating factor of THE Yep
pelin's Last Raid" is the growth of the
spirit of democratic revolution through
out the Prussian Empire, making it a
subject of momentous timeliness in
view Of recent outbreaks by seanien in
the German and Austrian navies, and
the general trend of opinion among
the people of the Teutonic countries
Added interest is given the picture by
the strikingly realistic exposition of the
inner workings of giant Zeppelin
revealing for the first time the secrets
of the great cigar shaped vulture of
the air. which at the beginning of the
war was Germany's greatest offensive
weapon. This is the first picture on
record, the central figure of which is
Yep.
So far THE Zeppelin's Last Raid has
broken many attendance records, ami
with the prolongation of the war pub
lie interest in Mr.. Inces work is plainly
on the increase.

holder in this greatest OF all under
/ takings, whose product is securely Tor
all posterity and whose dividend Will
be freedom.
One real measure of patriotism lies
! in the pocketbook. Not every man can
| fight, but every man and every woman
and every child can invest in war Sc
curities when they are bought within
| the reach of the humblest worker. A
nation is not completely at war until
it has spilled its blood and poured out
its money-not the blood or the money
! of few, but the sacrifice and the saw
ings OF the many.
The Children are Partners
When you have seen England and
France in the travail of war you realize
that these nations have been reborn.
With that rebirth has come the kin
ding sense that all wealth is inert IN
| less dedicated to victory. In England
| for example. practically every third
child that you see has some sort of
| financial interest in the war. 1t not
onyl inspires patriotism, but impresses
the high aim and the purpose of the
great struggle.
If every man, woman and child liv-
ing under the protection of the Ameri-
can flag would save and buy just one
25-cent Thrift Stamp ii would give the
United States Government more than
S25, 100000 Here you get some idea
of the scope and meaning of thrift.
These huge reservoirs of small savings
set up the bulwark of any nation.
This war has its compensations no
less constructive than those of peace.
1t will not only rid the world of preda-
tory Prussianism, which is a menace
a. ;ot1 IF mind G.
long as it flourishes, but it is likewise
impressing the invaluable lesson of
thrift.
This thrift idea lies at the very root
of all personal and national prosperity.
You have one beneficent result of war
savings in the fact that the latest re-
port of the superintendent of banking
for New York State shows that nearly
5000 new savings accounts were
opened during 1917. This increase is
entirely due to the campaign for the
sale of war securities. War savings
means peace saving. The thrift idea
will stick.
Must Be Won There or Here.
Our people must realize that IL the
war is not won in Europe it must be
fought out on our shores. The sub
marine, the aeroplane, and the Zeppe-l
lin nave shattered England > luuStohl
that a magnificent isolation is natu-
raj defense, while the exploits OF the
U-53 off the coast of Nantucket proved
that our own coast is not immune
from the raider.
Self-preservation is the first law of
patriotism, and this is a war Of self
preservation. 1t is our war just as
much as il is the war of England.
France, Italy and Belgium. When we
entered we We're simply taking up
arms in defense of our own liberties.
It is a war of democracy for democ-
racy, and this means that it is every
mans war. 1t will not be every mans
war, however, until every American
has proved his participation in it in
some concrete way.
A real democracy of wealth, which
means the peoples savings, must turn
the tide. If you can not fight. you can
save. If you can not save much, then
save little. The letters wv. s. S.
stand for War Savings Stamps. If we
mobilize our savings and employ them
for war purposes, they will also mean
We Shall Succeed.
