sacrifice on their part; they were

THE UNITED STATES
VERSUS The AMER|-
CAN INDIAN

Under the above captlcn tuefo
appeared in the August number OF
the American Indian Magazine a
sterling article from the pen OF
Mary Roberts Rinehart, one OF
the foremost women writer's OF
today. The writer pays glowing
tribute to the American Indian
but, as is usually the case with
those who take up the Indian ques-
ton as theme, Mrs. Rinehart
seems to be absorbed with the idea
that most mixed blood Indians are
externally endeavoring to swindIe
and rob their full blood brothern,
and that every move made by the
mixed blood or progressive men,
beers of any tribe looking to the
betterment Of existing conditions
among them and to conserve their
property and funds, is only a
scheme to defraud the less intelli-
gent members of the tribe. She
accuses these mixed bloods of
bringing the Indian question into
politics and seeking to profit there
by. While we are loath to criti-
else anything which may come
from the pen of such able writer's
as Mrs. Rinehart, or any other
person of like fame. whom we
know to be sincere in their efforts
to aid the Indian cause, we feel it
our duty to state that the SO called
Indian question has long been one
of politics, and it is the officials OF
the Indian: Bureau and Of the gov
eminent that have been response
bic for this. ), Referring to the
exploiting of the Indians, let i6 be
said that in so far at the Minneso-
ia Chippewas are concerned, it is
to prevent this very thing that the
mixed bloods of this state have,
through their General Council,
been sending delegations to Wash-
ington each winter, to prevent the
Indian Bureau from squandering
the last penny of their funds in
the administration Of their affairs
in this state. Up to last year,
since the treaty of 1889, the
Indian Bureau was using between
5000, 900 and 100000 Of Chip
1pewa Indian funds annually
in administering tie affairs OF
the Chippewas in Minnesota. The
bulk Of this vast amount was used
in the payment Of fat salaries to a
horde of useless employees. who
were of no benefit whatever to
the Indians. Right here leu IL oe
said that if it were not for the tE.
efforts made, and q! the continual .!t
vigil kept BY the mixed bleods OF
che Chippewa tribe over their
affairs, their heritage would now
be squandered and their reserva-
tions sold, and they would prob
ably have been removed to some
barren spot in the West to write
the last chapter Of their existence.
No, it is not the mixed bloods
that the Indians need to watch to
save themselves from exploitation,
but the Indian Bureau and its host
ct employees and petty officials

WHAT WILL THEY + Do
NOW?

For the past three years certain
members OF this reservation who
styled themselves full bloods''
and who are members of that
Bolshevick organization known as
The Chippewa Indians of Mime
sota'', of which Ben Caswell is
president, and which owes it birth
to the activities of JamesI. Coffey,
Esq, have been holding councils
and forwarding protests to Wash
ington against everything of a
progressive nature which was be-.
ing advocated by the General
Council, Minnesota Chippewas,
which they claimed was composed
of mixed bloods or practically
white men, declaring themselves
as full bloods and that they repre-
sented the full blood element which
were in the majority, SO they
claimed. 1t may be interesting TO-
our readers to learn that a recent,
survey of the Roll of White Earth
Allottees just completed by the
Commission appointed to prepare
a blood status roll of allottees of
the White Earth Il reservation,
shows these followers Of the
Cofey-Caswell aggregation to be
all mixed bloods. Some of the
more active of these are: George
Walters, William Lufkins, Ben
Caswell, Jim Bassett, Frank Smith
and William Potter, also Jane
Caswell or Mrs. George Walters,
and many others. On the new
roll now completed these people
are all mixed bloods, and as al
know who are acquainted with the
above named persons, the roll is.
correct In this regard, for these
persons are we'll known to be
mixed bloods but who claimed to
be full bloods for various reasons,
among which was the prospect of
getting back their allotments which
they sold as mixed bloods after
they had spent tie money they re.
ceived; another reason. is that they
objected to any move made by the
progressive members of the tribe
that would tend to better condi.
tions here and make the Indians
self-supporting and self-.respect-.
ing. Their sole ambition in life
was to lay in the shadow of the
warehouse and wait for ration day, ):
of course there are some of them
whose object in keeping things at
standstili was to furnish them a
job and subsistence in the Indian
Service. This roll has acted like
a boomerang to this class, for the
Commission which prepared the
roll was appointed by thu Indian
Bureau and the Department of
Justice. the very departments into
whose hands these self styled full
bloods" have been playing for the
past several years, the mixed
bloods, whom this element are
continually accusing of wrong
doing toward them, had nothing
whatever to do with the making
of the new roll. Now that the
blood status of White Earth Allot-
tees has been definitely settled we
earnestly hope that all those who
have gained the distinction of be.
ing 'kickers'' will now cease to
kick, and from now on join with
the progressive element In their
efforts to secure the payment to
the Indians of all their funds now
held by the government and a final
settlement of the Chippewa estate.

lem furnishes with meal tickets,
that should be kept under obser-
walton.
Long ago the politicians con-
ceived the idea of using the In
dams and their problems as trad
ing stock to attain their own ends.
The Indian Bureau wishes to keep
the Indians under its wing for the
sole purpose of exploiting them
and using the Indian Service as a
dumping ground for broken down
politicians who must be taken care
Of in some way, as rule they are
not capable of shifting for them
selves and they must be taken care
of in some manner, hence, the In
dian Bureau and the Indian Service.
And in the case of some of the
tribes at least, the Indians are
forced to stand the expense of this
political jugglery. We have al
ways maintained that until the In
dams are freed from this paternal
policy of our government this con-
dition will continue to exist, and
to. the great detriment of the In
dian race.
AS is her custom, Mrs. Rinehart
has not minced words. She has
stated facts with the straight-from
the-shculder impartiality which
characterizes all her writings. In
speaking of the administration of
Indian affairs and the conditions
which have existed, and exist to
day, upon Indian reservations,
particularly in the West, Mrs.
Rinehart brings to public attention
a state of affairs which urgently
demands the most searching and
important investigation.
: We read in Government reports
of the benevolent methods by
which the rights of reservation
Indians are safeguarded. In de-,
tail the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs-in the yearly report of
his Bureau-describes these meth
DDS. Backed by impressive Stats
tics, he tells Us of modern educa-
tional systems, of modern hygienic
improvements, of increasing agri-
cultural pursuits. He mentions
with .paternal pride the Indian
young men who went overseas 10
khaki. He dwells UPON the in:
crease of people WHICH have been
repeatedly referred 10, by those
deemed competent to judge, as a
vanishing race" .....
But the Commissioner in his
report makes no mention of such
incidents as are referred to in Mrs.
Rinehart's article. He says moth
ing of the Indian cattle which mys-
teriously disappeared from the
Blackfeet Reservation, and whose
branded hides later came to light in
Chicago packing houses. He says
not word regarding the ugly and
persistent rumors of distress and
poverty coming. from Montana
reservations. '...se..n. r=....'>: ~. =.
The report OF the Commissioner
of the Indian Bureau recounts the
earnings of Indian oil lands; but
it makes no statement regarding
certain reports of land and timber
steals perpetrated upon Indians in
other sections of the Uuited
States. =. .. .. 49,.
The Indian situation is full of
complexities that cannot be un-
raveled without thorough and
impartial understanding on the
part Of the Public. For upon q
far wider appreciation than now
exists depends the ultimate welfare
of the American Indian. =.
