The Peace Treaty and
the League Of Nations,

The conjunction Of the Peace
Treaty with Germany and the
world wide effort to effect a
League Of Nations as a. first step
towards abolishing war and thus
bringing about universal peace, is
q situation upon which statesmen
may honestly differ. Il is a ques-
ton that is debatable to say the
least, therefore discussion should
be welcomed by those who desire
to see all things settled upon se-
cure foundations. ..yas 81. =
. We do not observe chat in other
countries directly interested in
relations with, Germany arising
from the armistice, any great de-
mand is made for T. separation of
peace negotiations and the large
effort to create a league. The
question has been raised We might
say only 10 this country and in
spired by partizanship.
From what may be gathered
from the reports of correspond
ents abroad, it appears that Presi-
dent Wilson was instrumental in
bringing about the conjunction of
.tlls two questions. This was
enough for the leaders of the po-
Iitical party opposed to his, and
naturally by reason of the attacks

Creditable rumors are to effect
that the days Of the Government
system of boarding schools which
has been ins existence, here since
the establishment Of the reserya-
ton, are numbered and will soon
be a matter of history. And it is
highly probable that the more
progressive State public school
system will, after the end of the
present fiscal year, replace the
cumbersome and costly govern
ment school system, and the
present government school plant
will be converted into a consolidat
ed public school system and in
cluding a high school. Verify,
the days of progressive reconstruc
tion and democratic selt-deter.
mipation are at hand.

as against the progressive
element and the very first step
taken by some of the .would-be
leaders of the bolshivick faction
after the council had been called
to order was a cowardly attempt
to have some of the prominent
progressive leaders elected from
the floor of the council chamber
and which proved not only most
dismal failure but the ''beginning
of the end'' to their degenerate
hopes and q Waterloo to the sinis-
ter motives OF Jrmes /. Coffey and
his .dispicable tools and henchmen.
From many of the leading full
bloods who came TO White Earth
after the adjournment of the
-Pinehurst council it was learned
that a large portion of their faction
we're not in harmony with the
distorted doctrine of secession ad-
vocated by the bolshevick leaders
and, it is probable that had these
Indians been properly advised on
prevailing conditions, . large ma
jority:of them would have sup
ported the methods and measures
advocated by the progressive
leaders and even now these mislead
people are loud in their denounce-
ment of James l. Coffey and his
poltroon policies. r.
After a portion of the bolshevick
faction bolted the big council they
assembled themselves into the usual
brush council and proceeded to
select from among themselves del
egates to attend the big General
Council at Cass Lake on July 8th,
1919. Of course there is no ques
tion but that they were advised to
do SO at the instance Of James !.

Coffey and they will probably
make an attempt to get recogni-
tion at the General Council, failing
in this they will proceed as they
did year ago at Bemidji and re-
solve themselves into a second
General Council. However we
are advised from reliable sources
that the one and only General
Council which will be- rendered
recognition and attention at WASH
ington in the. future will be the
one which will meet the support
and approval of the regularly
constituted delegates who were
properly and legally appointed at
Pinehurst and other reservations
on June 18th, 1919. ...
The ToMAHAwK is gratified to
know that from the start to the
hour of adjournment the members
Of the progressive element, mixed
and many full-bloods., remained
passive and while the leaders of
the bolshevick faction directed

THEIR MINDS POISONED

II am satisfied in my mind that
if James I. Coffey and his beliger
ent Iieutenants, George Walters,
William and George Lufkins, had
not been so insistent in preaching
bolshivism to the so-calied full
blood faction for about a week be-
fore the Pinehurst council, por.
ton of them would not have
bolted the council as they did. In
fact the minds of the so-called
full-blood faction were warped
and poisoned by the foul and vic
ious antagonistic doctrine Of
secession as advocated by James i.
Coffey and his brush council gang.
And I am confident that at . pre-
concerted understanding. previous
" arranged, that at given signal,
presumably by James |. Cofey.
the members of the so-called full
blood faction were to bolt, and
which they did, This was the
statement expressed by promin-
ent gentleman Of the village after
the conclusion Of the Pinehurst
council, and which statement is
invariably true.
Long before the council was
called to order it. was obviously
manifest that Q most decided spirit
of bitter opposition was manifested
by the members of the holshlyick
