United States Senator Frank B.
Kellogg will again seek the Re.
publican nomination for his pres
ent job. A letter to this effect
was given to the press of the state
a short time ago and received wide
publicity. Senator Kellogg says
he will not make any active per-
sonal canvas for the nomination as
bis duties at the National Capitol
will not permit it. His official
record will be his appeal. Senato'
kellogg is the first to ANNOUNCE
his candidacy for ths senatorshlp.
It would be idle talk, and at the
same tune misleading to say that
the Junior Senator is not without
his enemies and some active and
influential ONES ct that, but 1t
would be equally misleading to say
that the task before them is not a
strenuous one. Senator Kellogg
is q big man in Washington; he is
serving his first term and there is
q feeling that he is entitled to an.
other try out. The comment OF
country press, following his an
nonncement. was generally favor

Commissioner Burke is looking
into this matter carefully and will
soon submit his recommendation.
Likewise the Red Lake situation,
and other matters of great i'm.
portance to the Indians, are under
consideration.
Action has at last been substi-
tuted for the administrative pro.
crastination of the past. Chippewa
matters are now on the move and
the movement is in the right
direction. 1t is along the lines
consistently and persistently urged
by the General Council for more
than five years. Unlike his prede-
cessor, Commissioner Burke is
glad to receive sound suggestions
from any source, including the
General Council, and if those
suggestions are wise and proyident
the new Commissioner will gladly
adopt them. He welcomes CO.
operation from tie General Council
and the Chippewa people and
whatever is for their best interests
the Commissioner will stand for.

The Chippewa people should do
this and in every possible way

missioner, for it is for their benefit
and the benefit of their race that
the Commissioner is acting.
It}can be safely stated that the

sometime next spring. This does
not mean that he will not make
changes, wherever found desirable,
in the personnel. When Com
missioner Burke came into Office

agency among the Chippcwas that
would have supervision oyer the
entire Chippewa country, and for
the adjustment of all activities on

in other localities. The new Com.

Washington, D. c.,
October 10, 1921.
Especial to The ToMAHAwK.) .,.
Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
Charles H. Burke, has gotten bis
bearings on the Chippewa situa-
ton and has commenced action.
The Chippewas can now confidently
expect general cleaning up of
their affairs. 49, IT,.
Commissioner Burke has trans
mit:ed to the Secretary of the In
terror Recommendation request.
ing the Attorney General of the
United States to institute suite
against the State of Minnesota for
the recovery of all lands coded by
the Indians under the agreements
of 1889 in trust to the United
States which have been enormously
patented to the State of Minnesota
under the general Swamp and
Overflow Acts that remain undis-
posed of by the State, and for the
recovery Of all money, with inter-
est, received by the State from
the sale of such lands or timber
thereon. and for the cancellation
of all pending applications of the
State for additional similar lands.
The Importance of this recommen-
dalton becomes at once apparent
when the magnitude of the grants
ITO the State are understood. Thus
far the United States has patented
to the State of Minnesota about
600, 900 acres, much of which was
covered with as fine stands of
timber as could be found on any
land in Minnesota. The pending
applications call for large adj
ditional area. The amount in
volved, and in which the Indians
are directly interested, will agRre'
gate somewhere between six. and
fifteen million dollars.
For five years the General
Council INCREASINGLY appealed to
the preceding administrator and
Commissioner of Indian Affairs
Cato Sells, to authorize a similar
action, but without success. When
Commissioner Burke became ia.
miliar with the situation it took
him less than thirty days to have
the papers prepared and to submit
the matter to the Secretary of the
Interior. This is Indicative of
what the Chippewa people may
expect of the present Commissioner
of Indian Affairs, who is a man of
action and not of words. Thus
the Chippewa people should soon
realize substantial benefits from
one of the matters the General
Council. has, long been insisting
upon and which was developed and
kept alive by the General Council
and its representatives.
COMMISSIONED Burke is now
giving careful consideration to the
school situation, another matter
oyer WHICH the General Council
had 50 much controversy with the
last Administration. Toe Com
missioner is determined, as has
been for five years insisted upon
by the General Council, that every
Indian child among the Chippewas
shall have proper and adequate
school facilities without any waste
Of the Chippewa trust funds.
Instructions have been. issued to
ascertain every Indian child who
is of school age who is not in
school, and the reason therefor.
The Chippewa people gan render
great SERVICE to the new Commits

LARGO as life and the picture OF
health. Frank Shodry, formerly Tor
many wears financial secretary OF
Painters Local No. GA, returned
Tnnsdav evening from Chicago. Bet
ter yet, he reports that the tIIp'
| undertaken for the benefit OF MS
wife's health, proved very success
ful and he himself comes back as III
as a fiddle. He enjoyed his trip to
Chicago despite the gruelng neat,
and it was exceptionally hot-belng
as much as 90 in the shade days
and nights in succession. He ad-
mitted that he found it somewhat
sitting, but was nothing the worse
for his experience.
Labor Conditions in Chicago
AS a result of the Lands award
everything was at SKIES and seVens
in Chicago. Thus the carpenters re-
fused pointblank to have anything
to do with the proposed wage re
duction and are still fighting against
it with the result in some cases that,
despite willingness of some organlza-
tions to accept it, work on very I'M
nortant construction is at a stand
still. To understand the situation
from the labor standpoint it must
he known that in Chicago the
building crafts were all paid a uni
form rate of $1.25. Lands, IN
making his award, reduced some to
as low as 80 cents an hour, while
others were scarcely touched at all
In addition some crooks among the
business agents who had been carry
inc on graft with material men and
contractors, had been indicted and
although no prosecution followed,
those indictments were held as
club over them and the unions whom
they had betrayed to make them ac-
cent the wage scale reduced by

Lands an Open Shopper
Lands is recognized as an open

| fused to have anything to do with
him. good or bad The Bricklayers
and some other organizations will

didn't hit them very heavy-and even
went further and refused to work

to accept it. However, as the Car
penters are standing pat in Chi
cago and are the king pins of the
situation, the Lands award, although
accepted by most unions on a prom
Use that it will be renewed is really
throwing the industrial situation into
a fine chaos.
Painters Not Affected
Because the Painters Union has
had a working agreement with the
master painters, and both refused to
be parties to the Lands ruling, they
are unaffected by the ward wholly
and are working for $1.25 an hour;
even maintenance men in hotels,
schools and county buildings receiv-
ing this scale. The fact is becoming
very clear to Chicago unionists that
the award was made with the idea
of bringing about an open shop
condition in Chicago, and many pow
erful industrial interests have beer
working for that object. However
owing to the fact that it is impos
sible to secure men who will scab
these plans have failed utterly ant
the situation is now beyond an.
control of those interests who hope
to profit by it.-F'rom Tacoma La
