President Signs Red Lake
Drainage Bill.
ORIGINAL BILL HAS SEVERAL AMEND
MENTS.

President Wilson last week
signed the STEVENSON bill, which
authorizes the improvement of Red
Lake and Red Lake river for
drainage flood control and naviga-
ton purposes and the measure Is
now a law. -"
The measure was originally
passed by the House several week
ago, but upon reaching the Senate
was subjected to a number of
amendments which we're Inserted
in the bill by the Indian Bureau
ut the instigation of the represent
tatives of the General Council,
Minnesota Chippewas. The House
then passed the amended measure
without dissenting vote and the
bill then welt to President Wilson
for his signature or veto.
It is estimated that about $780,
600 acres of land will be improved
through the carrying out OF the
project. = -

There is large former . boarding
school plant at Beaulieu which has
been idle for over three years.
The there are fine day school
plants at both Elbow Lake and
Round Lake, and there are some
buildings at Pine Point. l was at
Round Lake last fall and witnessed
the dilapidated condition of this
once splendid school plant; grass
and tall weeds formed a rank
growth around the walks and IN
to the sides and doors of the
buildings. Like conditions pres
vailed in the vicinity Of the other
abandoned Government school
buildings. And there is~no doubt
that if these buildings are per.
mitted to remain idle much longer,
possibly the next or coming sum-.
mer, will witness their destruction
by fire. !
Like conditions prevail at the
White Earth former Government
school buildings; weeds and grass
flourish while here and there
patches shoot up through broken
walks and steps; some places IL
che concrete pavement at the en-,
trance to some of the fine build
ings, frost and cold have played
havoc, heaving and breaking the
surface. And unless something rs
done looking to the occupancy OF
these buildings or steps are taken
to give them proper care it will be
but a few years before nothing
will remain but scrap heap" of
property worth near a million OF
dollars. Thanking you for
courtesy in. the premises I beg to
remain,
Sincerely yours,
THEO. H. BEAUL1EU.

Mondays Mass Meeting,
Action Of the Legislative Committee Of
the General Council Is Explained in
Detail to the Satisfaction Of all.

A large and interested audience
attended the meeting held in the
village hall last Monday afternoon,
md if anyone has entertained any
doubts as to the sincerity of the
members of the Legislative Com
mittee of the General Council,
Minnesota Chippewas, in their
efforts to bring ABOUT just and
equitable settlement of Chippewa
affairs, such doubts were com plete-
ly dispellcd long before the meet
ing adjourned. AS stated in our
issue of last week the meeting
Monday was for the purpose of
giving everyone an opportunity of
meeting the members of the legis
lative committee and of learning
just what has been done toward
the settlement of the Chippewa
estate, more especially as to what
took place in Washington this
winter.
Mr.. B. L. Fairbanks and Mr..
E.. J. Warren, members of the
legislative committee, were present
at the meeting which was called to
order by MIR. Henry SeIkirk,
chairman of the White Earth local
council, after which Mr.. Warren,
committeeman and vice-president
of the General Council, proceeded
in a straightforward aud business
like manner to relate all that took
place in Washington regarding
Chippewa matters from the time
of his arrival there on November
10th up until his departure on
February 10Th. MIR. Warren ex-

planned in detail each movement
made by the Legislative committee
at the national capital and showed
the great opposition that confront
ed them on every hand. Referring
to the Ellsworth Bill which would
have been so effective in bringing
matters to a close had it been en-.
acted into law, Mr.. Warren ex.
planned that this bill was now
separated into two parts, or practi-
cally two bills, one relating to the
jurisdictional portion of the origin.
al bill and the other as to the
administrative features, he stated
that owing to the insistent opposi-
ton to the jurisdictional features
of any bill looking to the settle
ment of Chippewa affairs it was
finally agreed that Representative
Knutson should take the three
jurisdictional bills which have al
ready been suqgested-there is one
by the Indian Bureau, one by
Congressman Steenerson and the
one drafted by the General Coun-
Gil, and out of the three try and
draw up jurisdictional act that
will be acceptable to all concerned.
Mr.. Kuutson has promised to make
every effort to have such a bill
passed at the extra session of Con-
gress. As regards the admins
trative part of the original Els
worth Bill nothing has been done
so far and probably will not be
until some sort of a jurisdictional
act is assured.
Referring to the division of the
tribal funds and the big pay
ment" which has been whispered
around for some time, Mr.. Warren
explained that although the Indian
Bureau had draw such a bill they
never intended it should even be
introduced, as they knew it would

Indian Bureau. Evidently
Intends Opening the
Former Boarding School
at White Earth.

AS regards the disposition of the
buildings of the former school at
this agency which was closed TWO
years ago, it appears from the
following communication from
Mr.. E. B. Merritt, assistant com
missioner of Indian affairs, to
Congressman Stevenson, that it
is the intention of the Indian
Bureau to reopen the boarding
school here. The matter OF the
disposition of the buildings OF this
school was taken up by Mr.. L. II.
Beaulieu who, as it was antlcl'
pated that these buildings would
eventually be turned over to the
State of Minnesota for certain
purposes, took the matter up with
State Senator Baldwin and Rep.
resentative G. J. Norby, who in
turn brought the matter to the
attention of Congressman Steen-
erson who at once referred the
matter to the Indian Bureau.
The Assistant Commissioners
reply to Mr.. Stevenson follows:
Department of the Interior
Office of Indian Affairs,
-, Washington, D. c.,
Feb. 9th, 1921.
Dear Mr.. Steenerson:-
Referring TO your letters OF
January 20 and February l and 3,
transmitting communications from
Senator Baldwin of Frazee, Min.
nesota, and A. G Knutson in re-
gard to the buildings and land
comprising the former White
Eareh boarding school, Agency
and hospital, you are advised that
the agency buildings are still re-
quired and used for conduct of
the affairs Of the Indians. The.
local public school authorities
have been allowed use of the
school house for public school
purposes, / am of opinion that
this plant should not be disposed
of while needed for Government
purposes, and for the present
would not care to turn it over to
the State. -. i. .-- -
AS to Hospital building, the In
dian Appropriation Bill now pend
ing before the Congress provides
for turning over to the proper
State authorities any Chippewa
Hospitals which are 10 longer
necessary in connection with the
work of the Chippewa Indian
Service upon satisfactory assurance
that the property will, at all times.
be maintained and used for public
purposes anc that Chippewa In
dams shall at all times be admitted
to State institutions upon the
same terms as citizens AOf the
State. 1t is believed it would be
well to delay any action looking
to disposition of the hospital plant
until il becomes evident whether

Feb. IS, 1921.
Mr.. Webster Ballinger,
Washington, D: G.
Dear Mr.. Ballinger:-
Inclosed herewith please find
copy of letter written by E.. B
Merritt, Asst. Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, in answer to letter
of Hon. Halvor Stevenson, con-
corning the disposition of the
former Government boarding
school plant at White Earth
agency. The letter explains itself.
Both Frank and myself we're very
much surprised on receipt of this
letter as both of us had several
talks with Mr.. p. R. Wadsworth,
Supt. of this agency: concerning
the disposition of the school plant
So strongly we're we impressed
with the encouragement we built
on our talk with Mr.. Wadsworth
that we took up the matter with
the State authorities and, up to the
present time, we had every expec-
tation that the confidence pros
pered by the agency authorities
would be favored by the Indian
Office, but it seems that at the
18th hour the Indian Office has
exercised it's usual prevarication in
the premises.
At. the suggestion of Mr.. B. l..
Fairbanks and Frank l send you
copy Of the letter so that you may
know just how matters stand on
the subject. l might add that in
our talks concerning the matter of
the disposition of the school build
ings we did not mention or include
Agency buildings" or any other
buildings otherwise such as we're
included in the former boarding
school plant.
The buildings former school
plant) have been idle for nearly
two years; last year the buildings
we're practically stripped of
all furnishings and the same we're
transferred to Red Lake agency.
Over two years ago the school gas
plant exploded and wrecked sew
eral of the work shops and store
houses besides doing considerable
damage to other buildings. No
step has ever been taken to repair
the wrecked buildings and to-day
rain and snow drift 10 the broken
windows and the utter ruin of the
damaged building is but matter
of limited time; most of the
window panes in some of the
buildings, especially the fine
modern barn, have been broken,
ID fact the buildings are fast going
to wreck and ruin, the prey of the
elements and vandalism. And it
seems like the height of folly that
such desirable property should be
permitted to decay and remain
idle just because some contrary
''opinion'' advances elusive objec-
tions in the premises. g..
At the present time there are
several Abandoned school plants on
the White Earth reservation.

THAT SEED CORN

Everybody is looking forward to
, the harvesting of good corn crop
this fall. Take it the country over,
we probably have the largest crop
rate, such is the estimate of the gov
eminent crop reporting service. Very
little corn will fail to ripen this year.
In fact, it is now practically all out
Of danger Of frost. There are few
fields from which seed ears might not
have been picked two weeks ago, but
it is Questionable whether very much
has been picked so far. Let US not
forget that the man who has a good
crop this year can pick the best seed
on his own farm. The importance
of picking seed ears now lies in the
fact that one can select the earliest
maturing ears. II the job is deferred
till all the ears are ripe, there will
be no opportunity to pick the earliest
ripening ones because they will all
look alike.
1t is probable that the ears will
average larger in size this year than
usual, Ibut don't pick the largest
ones, they are not what is wanted;
rather pick the medium type of ear
that will mature in less time than
the extremely large one. We are not
always so fortunate as I'VE nave Deen
this year in getting a long growing
season, and a large number Of heat
units at the time when corn needs it
most. The man that goes into the
field now and picks the ears that
matured first-those OF medium
length and thickness, that have deep,
square kernels-and takes good care
of his selection, will have little trou-
BILE in getting a full stand next
spring. Not only will MS corn germ
mate well, but it will also be more
uniform in quality, type and matur-
ing quality than IL he defers picking
the seed ears till next spring and
then takes II from the crib.
Up-to-date corn growers never go
to the crib for seed corn. They have
learned from experience that such
practices tend toward retrogression
in corn production rather than to-
ward advancement. The longer a
variety of corn is grown on a given
farm. provided proper methods OF
seed selection are followed, the better
It becomes acclimated, and the larg-
err will be the yield. 1t is a mistake
to change corn every year or two.
Spend a little time now IN picking
the right seed ears. II it is done in
an intelligent manner, it will prob
ably mean five bushels more per
acre next year. For an S0-acre
field that means 400 bushels of corn
"a nice little pile as reward for
getting busy in the cornfield at this
time of the year.
