They realize that we simply paying portion Of
the penalty OF every great war; and that when the debt
paid we will return to activity and prosperity.
We have been fortunate. We have suffered less than
any other people in the great community Of nations We
have wealth and have food where millions of others
have nothing but hunger We have hope while they face
the barrenness of despair
True we have unemployed but we our national and
state governments and civic agencies that are even now

Our great armies and navies have been demobzed and

commerce In other countries they are still staggering
under the burdens of miltarsm
These are only few of the many blessings we enjoy
even in our days of business depression An unbiased

desire to have 500 instead of
5000, many protests we're received
against the larger per capita pay
ment. The Indian Bureau was
not averse to increasing the pay
,ment to 5000, but when a large
number of letters were received
from the Indians protesting
against the payment being in
creased from 800 to 5000 per
capita, the members of the Com.
mittee concluded to give the In
dams apparently what they wanted
and left the appropriation at 500
per capita. This is 4 sample of
the dirty work being done by
James 1. Coffey, I. B. (Cuffey
Beaulieu, and their crowd for the
Chippewa people. With the hard
times prevailing, With many Of
the Indians out: of work, with
winter coming on, and with a
need for ready money seldom
before experienced by the Chip
pewas, these fellows and their
limited number OF. followers pro:
tested against the increase in the
payment. How much longer they
will be able to fool the Chippewa
people time alone can answer.
The time has come when the Chip
pewa Indians individually and
collectively should repudiate such
so-called leadership with its dis
astrous and blighting effect =,

letter and addressed it to his
tribesmen, calling them "brothers''
and warning them of the end their
paths were leading to and telling
them to become useful citizens and
do something worth while in the
world. He sent the letter to the
agent With the request that it be
read at the next council. The
agent promised that it would be
'rean-before he himself had read
the letter. After he had read it,
however, he knew he wouldn't
keep bis promise. The letter
contained some advice too good
for the Indians, he thought. 1t
was all too true what Red Bird
had written, so the council never
heard it.
: Thus did the old Indian father
die, and his son, and the little way
they would have helped their
people only became part of the
waste in the agents basket.
B The moral of this story could
be: Don't trust an Indian agent
with anything you feel is import
ant. But the moral the writer
wishes to bring out even more
than this is: Stop playing like
grasshoppers before it is too late.

HOW AUTO LICENSE
MONEY IS USED.

/ The report of State Treasurer
Rines on the money paid out il
the month of September in the
Trunk Highway fund, which is a
correct index for the other months
of the year, shows how it is being
expended in Commissioner Bah.
cock ks department.
Administration, 81, 788.45; con.
struction, $s58,S74.47; mainten
ance, $287, 1851; equipment, $751;
963.32.
The total is near d million and a
quarter dollars, and of this amount
less than five thousand dollars
goes to the administrative officers,
which included commissioners,
engineers and clerks. Most If
the million dollars went to labor
in building permanent highways,
building and care of other trunk
highway roads.
There seems to be an impression
that only a small part of the
money goes into actual road work,
and the statement has been made
and repeated that only rs cents of
every dollar is actually used for
road building. The absurdity of
this is shown by the above figures.
Less thar five thousand dollars in
an expenditure of a million and a
quarter for overhead is a better
showing than is made by any
business or manufacturing concern
in the country. The highway
commission is one branch of public
service that is conducted on strictly
business principles. =

Senator Curtis, Chairman Of the
Senate Committee on Indian
Affairs, has favorably reported to
the Senate the Steenetson Bill
which passed the House some
time ago authorizing q per capita
payment Of 500 % the members
Of The Chippewa trioe. The SEN
ate Committee added the following
amendment: "
Provided, That before any
payment is made hereunder
the Chippewa Indians Of Min !.
nesota shall, in such manner
as may be prescribed ~ the
Secretary of the Interior,
fatify the provisions Of this
Act and accept the same.
The amendment adopted by the
Senate recognizes the b.pdlng
force and effect of the agreement
al. 1889. The bill IS introduced il
the House by Congressman Steen-
erson, and as It passed the House,
dealt with the trust fund as though
It were the absolute property OF
the United States, or that the
fund could be expended In any
way Congress directed. The
amendment adopted By the Senate
recognizes the ownership Of the
fund by the Indians and provides
for the per capita payment when
the Indians give their assent. The

His Father Died. =

An DID, old. Indian man, too
lame to walk without a cane, was
sitting far back in his tepee, sn1ok-

There was no one to tell the old
stories to, for 40 one would listen.
His young and somewhat foolish
son was blatiDg outside the tepee

blanket and continued to smoke

hard thinking of other days when
young Indian men didn't carry on

DEFER AWARD OF
 WATFRWORKS JOB

After receiving and considering pro- posals from eight or 10 bidders on the work of cutting a ditch for the new waterworks supply line between the reservoir and pumping station and hauling the cast iron pipe, the board of improvement of Waterworks Dis trict No. ? yesterday afternoon defer red the award of the contracts pend ing the acquiring of right-of-way for the pipe line. The board had under stood that tentative arrangements for the rights-of-way had been made, but found that further negotiations were necessary. It is possible that the ditching and hauling contracts may be readvertsed and new bids receiv- ed before the work is finally let. The lowest bids received yesterday fig ured about S2,300 for both contracts, somewhat in excess of the estimated cost of the work.

WHISKEY IN DEMAND
 AT FRENCH CAPITAL
(By the Associated Fress>

Paris, Aug. 31.-The French gov ernment has been compelled to per init the importation into France of limited amount of whiskey and gin so as to satisfy the demands of the tourists here from foreign countries. Such imports had been prohibited since the war and, as a result, the prices of cocktails and highballs scared in proportion as the supply of gin and whiskey diminished
 Foreigners residing here have made desperate efforts to obtain good whiskies from England and Scotland and have been compelled to pay extremely high pprices for it. Reports of a great amount of snug gling indicate that the foreigners have about as much difficulty obtain ing their favorite brand of whiskey as they do in America
 The government realized that af- ter the tourist season began it was losing large amount in duties. The minister of finance, therefore, was authorized to permit hotels, restau- rants and cafes to import enough spurious liquor to satisfy the de- mands of their foreign clients. Only such places as are frequented by for eigners, however, can obtain permits for such imports.

ROAD TO QU|TMAN ABOUT COMPLETED
NOW IN GOOD CONDITION
Judge Smith Says Much Free Labor was Donated to Improve Road
 to Cleburne County Line.

The road from Conway to the Gle burne county line near Quitman is now practically completed and is in fine condition, according to County Judge E. L. Smith, who returned last night after an inspection of the work. Judge Smith said he easily drove over this road from a point 27 miles distant, in one hour and 30 min utes, without breaking the speed linn it anywhere.
 The road which runs from Conway through Pickles Gap, Greenbrier and Guy to Quitman, has been worked at a small cost to the county, much of the labor being donated, Judge Smith said. Only the regular grading out fit was employed at the expense of the county Many crooks in the road have been strengthened, grades re- duced and other Improvements made. Through the use of drags Judge Smith intends to prevent the cutting of deep ruts and mudholes and keep the road passable throughout the winter.
 As soon as the portion of the Con- way-Damascus highway through the Cadyon bottom is hard surfaced and the 1,000-foot trestle installed, which IS expected to be done by October 15, practically all traffic from Green brier and points north will come in to Conway by way of Wooster, where the new highway passes, Judge Smith said. By actual measurement, he stated, the distance between conway and Greenbrier is one mile less by way of Wooster than by way of the Terry bridge When the Damascus higghway is completed, the Terry bridge and that portion of the road is expected to have very little use.
 Judge Smith said that some good work is being done on the same road in Cleburne county, form the Faulk- ner county line through Quitman to the north line of Cadron township, in Cleburne this being the road to He Der Springs.

SCHOOL
 REPORT DELAYED

A dispatch to the Log Cabin Dem- ocrat today states that the state board of education will meet on Mon- day, September 5, for the purpose of making the annual apportionment of the state school fund, and that enumeration reports from two coun- ties, Faulkner and Columbia, are still missing, but are expected to be re- ceived this week.
 County Supt. A. A. Parsons, Jr., says the Faulkner report has been delayed on account of the many er- TOTS and inaccuracies in the district reports filed with them. Some of the district reports have had to be sent back to the directors for correction two or three times, he said, and in some cases he has had great diff culty in securing correct reports from the directors. The annual report, however, is now practically completed and will be forwarded to the state superintendent in a day or two, MT. Parsons said.
