will remain or continue only so
long as there is funds to their
credit with which to maintain the
salaries of horde of Indian Blu
reau employees.
The other day, the Court of
Indian Offenses was in session at
Red Lake, the presiding judges,
who have held the Office for some
time in the past, are picked from
the older element. they do not
speak the English language and
cannot read or write it, conse-
quently it is necessary that these
Indian judges rely on some one
for their decisions, which would
seem deplorable condition to any
community where the bar of justice
lis predominated by ignorance.
This farce of going through trial,
such as is conducted by the Indian
Bureau. where the Indians have
not received their allotments of
land in severalty and remain wards
of the Government, should forever
be eliminated. The case which
was brought before the bar of
Justice" at this time was, or
would be generally speaking, a
man seeking relief through the
courts for assault and battery
committed upon his person. Com
plant was made by A "a govern.
ment employee) that B IAN official
of the Red Lake Counci|) bad
threatened him because he was
running lines for G. IA member of
the Red Lake Band) on his tenta-
tive allotment B assuming the
leadership of the Red Lake In
dams and claiming to voice the will
Of each of them, and insisting that
no surveys of any kind be made
on any tract Of land on the rcser-
walton which was intended to be- q
selection for an allotment. Upon
the refusal of A tn abide his
wishes, B suddenly attacked him
by taking away from him the staff
he had in his haLd and striking
him over the head with it two or
three times until the staff broke
in two, and evidently B was. not
satisfied with what he had already
done, so he struck A with his
hand which took all the skin off
from AS nose. AS head was also
cut from the staff which B used
when he first made the assault.
The court on hearing the case, and
being satisfied, from the evidence
given, that B was guilty beyond a
doubt, imposed upon him the ter
rible outrageous sentence; q
FIVE DOLLAR FINE" What
satisfaction did the complainant
get out of this? We are sure he
is happy and contented over the
result of the trial. The Court of
Indian Offenses had two cases on
the docket that day. The other
being dispute between several
parties as to the ownership of a
certain tract of land, most of
which was improved by the orig
inal owner who had died some
time ago. Part of this tract OF
land had always been reserved for
sugar bush and the whole of the
land is within a legal subdivision
of an eighty acre tract The party
claiming this improved land with
the sugar bush is one of the ISSUE
YET IN BEING of the original
owner. This spring when this
party moved out there with the
intention of making sugar, it hap
pened that another party, who had
,, no previous claim to the land and
,, sugar bush, had got there ahead,
which of course caused some dis
turbance, and the claimant Of the
, land naturally sought relief
through the Indian Court. How
ever just the cause of the party
claiming the land might have
been, yet the court, at the instance

PRIMITIVE LIGHT
 USED IN RUSSIA

With American Forces on Dwina, Octo- Der 20.-(Correspondence of the Associa- ted Press.)-The shortage in kerosene and candles in northern Russia has brought into use once more a primitive lighting arrangement known as the
 svetila,' an arrangement to burn birch twigs.
 The "svetilas' have been resurrected from Some ancient storing place in the log houses of the villages and are now lighting many of them. The arrange nient consists of a wooden trough about two feet long, with an iron pan to catch the ashen from the burning birch twigs, which are placed in a fork-like arrange ment so that they slant downward and burn easily.
 Each twg, or ''lutchinka,' burns about five minutes, with about as much light as candle and much more smoke. The members of the family take turns feed ing it.
 The 'svetila' is bat one sample of the resort to old-time customs occasioned by the general shortage of almost every im- ported commodity in the villages along the Dwina river. The peasant women are again generally employing the 'preelka," a primitive wooden loom on which they card and weave flax for their garments. The result is cloth, both of coarse and fine varieties, and not at all bad look ing
