Indian Priest Says Tribes are Treated
Like Children.

Conspicuous among 300 preIates
and priests who attended the
golden jubilee of the Right Rev,
James Schwebach, bishop of the
La Crosse diocese, at La Crosse,
Wis , recently, was the Rev.
Father Philip Gordon of Superior,
the only ordained Indian priest in
Wisconsin.
1.-The Indians are interested in
religion and politics, said Father
Gordon, but the United States
government stands in the way of
their advancement. The Indians
are treated like children, and are
not allowed to follow the pursuits
they like. A large percentage
have tuberculosis, and little is
done to- relieve the situation.
Moral conditions are bad, but the
government does not consider it
worth while to pass laws to cover
the smaller otfehses, and the state
officials have no jurisdiction in The
matter.
''Politics plays too great part
in the management of lodian
affairs, although the Indians them
selves are not allowed to vote.
More than 200 young Indians from
my reservation fought in France
and yet when they returned they
we're barred from the election
booths on some technicality. We
have the promise of Senator La
Toilette that he will fight fol-
Justice for the Indians as soon as
his health permits. District At
torney Wolfe and Governor
Phillip are also doing what they
can to help US. The Indians are
dissatisfied under present 'condi
tons, and are in favor Of the La
Toilette and Blain factions in Wis
consin politics. Elk. 49,.

commanded his servants, the physi"

physicians embalmed Israel" This
passage from Genesis has HOW nm add

" the Indian Bureau). would per.
haps be easier to bear if the Bureau
didn't also look upon him as

That if the Indian Bureau must

be better far if it could be run by
something else than just . political

That when the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs gave himself the
appellation of Father to all the
Indians he; spelled the first word
wrong. 1t should have ~been
Bother to all the Indians.
And that the Indian Bureau has
entirely too many drawers which

OF the treasury, and secondly In JUS

81 find It quite the custom when n
Congressman is running for election,
or wishes to have his name before tho
public because he aspires for some
other Office to flood his district or
state, as the case may be, with al
kinds Of free literature. For exam
pie, one OF our Congressman awhile
ago desired to have his name consiJ-
cred in connection with the Governor
ship of his State, with tho result that
he conceived the idea Of sending out a
nice collection Of books to the voters
Of his state. He sent out Gao, 900 par
cells OF books in one day, and upon in
quiry at the Post Office I found that
the postage would have been to ordi-
nary mortals As cents per parcel. 1t Is
a simple matter in arithmetic to see
that $4,000 parcels at as cents apiece
cost Uncle sam over $4,000 for post
age. or course, the cost of the books
themselves would be greatly in excess
of this amount. II is easy to see, with

The fight Is on between constitutional
government-law and order and
Boishevism. 1t should not be possible
for newspapers and critics generally
to make the perfectly true statements
about Congress which are, and can be,
made. Every keen observer who
comes to Washington can go home
and prove to homefolks-and they
do-that millions are being jimmied
out Of the public treasury for pork
and patronage. No people nor any
class OF people, ever thought in terms
OF revolution so long as they had con-
