Dinner was over but wine and a

the polished oak Of the long table.
A small fire had been lighted on
the massive hearth and shone upon
the features Of an elderly man who
rose from an armchair as his Wis.

The entrance of the servant pre-
vented further speech. and, even
when the meal was cleared away,
the old man sat silent. Whilst his
visitor had been eating the noble
man had taken from his pocket the
letter he had received from his son
the day before. He had read 1t
through, and now he sat, the paper
hanging Imply from his fingers,
gazing into the flames.

stood mysterious In the pale light
OF the newly risen moon, its white
towers, Ivy covered and discolored
with age, showing faithfully In the
placid depths of the moat, where
lily leaves made green patches on
the surface and two swans seemed
to hang motionless upon the water.

when he was directed to pitch for
W aite Earth, some of the Waubun
fans were certain of another
Waubun victory. Ed. got a bad
start, having passed the first two
men and hitting the third, with the
bases loaded and nobody down, he
took up a link in his belt however
and started to smoke 'em over, and
retired the side without allowing a
score, to help Ed. out of the hole,
Bill Anywaush and Charley Berry
pulled off fast double play, Bill
getting a man at the home plate
and Heisler throwing to Berry on

Ed. proved to be some pitcher and
it won't be long before Mahnomen
or Aneta, N. D., will be after him.
He not only pitched good ball, but
got a timely two-bagger which
brought in two runs. Charley
Berry went in and pitched the last
three innings and held the Wau-
bun players at his mercy. Score

Now that the boys have made a

ThesTndian base ball teams of
the White Earth reservation had
a good day last Sunday. The White
Earth newly organized team went
to Waubun last Sunday and dem
onstrated that White Earth is still
on the map with a good ball team,
although a number Of its star play
ers have been drafted by semi-pro
teams of the country. The White
Earth boys played a consistent
game in the field, and when it came
to batting they we're certainly there
with the hickory getting no less
than Is hits off the Waubun twirler,
among which was three two-base
drives and a home run. Jim Ora.
velle was the heavy hitting star of
the day, having secured a single,
a two.bagger and a home run.
Jim's home run was the longest
hit ever made on the Waubun
grounds, the ball sailed over the
entire field and finally rested in
old man Snyder's yard, it was
some hit and Jim could have ran
the circuit twice before the ball
was returned. Special mention of
each players performance would
be hard to describe because all the
boys worked equally hard and
team work was in evidence at all
times. However, suffice it to say
that Ed. Warren was the surprise

at $4,000. The average tax rate

Councils on Tuesday,

First Tuesday In June is date set BY Gen.
>era| Council on Which Local Councils
will Meet to Elect Delegates to the
Meeting Of the General Council.

We take occasion to again call
the attention of all Minnesota
Chippewas on the reservations and
coded reservations III Minnesota to
the Importance Of holding their
local council meetings next Tues
day, June 1st, for the purpose OF
electing their delegates to the
annual meeting Of the General
Council which will convene in
Bemidji, Minnesota, on the l36h
daynof-July. -, &-zx, II ,,..l-y% > .as..., .
Extreme care should be exer-
cised in this regard, as it is Of the
utmost Importance that these dele
gates to the General Council are
elected in proper manner and on
the date specified by the constitu-
ton and bylaws of the General
Council, SO that there may be no
dispute regarding the standing of
delegates when the General Coun:
Gil meets at Bemidji., In the past
there has been more or less discus
cussion and argument regarding
the authority of some of the dele
gates, etc., in order to eliminate
ali this let the residents of the
reservations and coded reserva-
tions in Minnesota hold their local
council meetings and elect their
delegates on Tuesday next, which
is the first Tuesday in June, the
day set by the constitution and
by laws of the General Council
for the election of such delegates.
1t is we'll known that certain
persons are very DESTROYS of break
ing up or gaining control of che
General Council to further their
own selfish ends, and that these
persons are ever on the aler: seek
ing for technicalities to obstruct
and hinder the h9nest purposes Of
thes General Council in any way
possible. The ELECTION of dele
gates to the meeting of the Gener
al Council is a very important
matter, and in order to block any
efforts on the part of those persons
who would ipjure and discredit
the General Council let the local
councils hold their meeting and
elect their delegates on the proper
day and in the proper manner, by
80 doing they will facilitate to a
great degree the work before the
council and avoid any trouble
from this source that may arise

Congressman Ellsworth
Will Deliver an Address
Here on June 18th.

When the representatives OF the
General Council, Minnesota Chip

winter they were assured by Con
gresham Franklin F. Ellsworth,

for governor of Minnesota, and

and who gave such valuable aid to
the representatives of the General

the celebration here on June IA

fitting to the occasion. Evidently
Mr.. Ellsworth has not forgotten
his promise. nor has his interest
in Minnesota Chippewa matters
abated in the least, for in answer
to an invitation sent him by Mr..
Archie Libby, secretary and
treasurer of the June 18th cele;
bration committee, and which was
received last week, Mr.. Ellsworth
assures the committee that he will
be here without fail on June 18th

Ellsworth states in his letter to
Mr.. Libby that his subject for the
occasion will be 1.-The Chippewas

Mr.. Ellsworth's visit here and
his address on June 18th will
offer rare opportunity to all
those, both Indians and whites,
on this reservation and the sur
rounding country who are inter.
ested in Chippewa matters and
who are deslrous of learning the
truth, and of what has been
accomplished by the General
Council, Minnesota Chippewas,
and of what is still to be accom-
plished, and of the hard work and
strenuous efforts put forth by the
representatives of the General
Council in behalf of the Minneso-
ia Chippewas at each session of
Congress. 1t has been many
years since the Minnesota Chip
pewas have had such an able
champion of their cause as Mr..
Ellsworth has proved to be. His
deep and exhaustive study of
Chippewa affairs in Minnesota
enables him to discuss the situation
as no other man possibly could.

Injunction to Restrain Fed
eral Officials From Inter
fering Filed.

Providence, r. l., Jan. S.-An In
junction to restrain federal officials
in Rhode Island from interfering un-
der the national prohibition amend
ment with the manufacture and sale
of Notwithstanding malt beverages,
was asked in three bills of complaint
filed in the United States district
court here today.
The actions were brought by Mich
ael J. Lynch, in behalf of the James
Hanley Brewing company, Narragan-
sett Brewing company AMI Proyi-
dence Brewing company. UnIted
States Attorney Harvey A. Sake and
the collector of internal revenue,
George F. C'Shaunessy, were named
as defendants.
The eighteenth amendment, The
bill asserts, is wholly null and void.
and title two Of the Volstead act for.
the enforcement of constitutional pro-
hibiuon is declared to be tunconstitu-
tional and void and beyond the power
Of the federal government to enforce.
The bills attack ,the Volstead act
particularly, saying that it arbitrarily
and oppressively defines and classi-
fies as intoxicants liquors which are
not in fact intoxicating and because
in so doing it is not appropriate leg
islation to enforce the prohibition
amendment, the provisions of which
ARE expressly confined and limited
to Intoxicating liquors"
The plaintiffs ask for a restraining
order and preliminary injunction TO
be effective during the hearing and
pending final decision of the case and
then for perpetual injunction.
