He saw BIN Kelso at the window
with her gun leveled at the head of
McNoll. Her face was red with anger.
Her eyes glowed. AS he looked a tear
welled from one of them and trailed
down the scarlet surface of her cheek.
McNoll turned without a word and
walked sulkily Out of the back door.
The others crowded after him. They
ran as soon as they had got out of the
door. She left the window. In a mo-
ment the young men were galloping
away.
BIN came into the house sobbing
with emotion but with her head erect.
She stood her gun in a corner and
knelt by the helpless boy. He was
crying also. Her hair fell upon his
face as she looked 1T the spot of deep
scarlet color made by the shot bag.
She kissed it and held her cheek
against his and whispered: Don't

loved him always. She was rSe a
young mother with her first child.
Tenderly she wiped his tears away
with her blond, silken hair. She cut
his bonds and he rose and stood be-
fore her. Her face changed like
magic.
"Oh what a fool I've been!" she
exclaimed.
"Why so?" he asked.

She covered her eyes with her hair

and heart were out in the sunlight
talking with BIN. Once he looked out
of the door and saw her leaning
against the neck of the pony, her face
hidden in his name. When the sun
was low she came to the door and
said:
"You had better stop now and &c

She looked down at the ground and
added:

the principles of American justice
than the so-called Court of Indian
Offenses".
The white mans courts were
created to assure justice and pro-
lection from individual despotism,
and it's impartiality was secured by
separating it from the executive
and legislative branches of the
government. For it is recognized
that by combining them with either
would inevitably result in grave
injustice being melted out. b"
This principle has been lost sight
of in dealing with Indians, and the
great danger arises from the fact
thai such courts. directly effect the
daily life of many thousands OF
Indians, which is potent factor
in developing the civilizing ele-
ments of American Indians.
These courts were organized by
order of the Secretary of the In
terror in 1882. Under the rules
the Superintendent appoints the
judges from among the Indians,
subject to the approval of the Sec
rotary. The judges nave jurisdic-
ton over minor offenses committed
on the reservation and can impose
a Jail sentence, but any judgment
is subject to TIE approval of the
Superintendent Of the Agency.
The subsection of judges to the
arbitrary will of the Superinten'
dent nuli6es their impartiality and
the human nature of currying
favors with the Superintendent
divests the court of its prestige,
confidence and due respect.
The Superintendent in a large
measure controlling the liberty of
Indians on the reservations, while,
at the same time empowered to
punish Indians, naturally tends to
establish vainglorious dictatorship
which are both irritable and de-
lvitalizzing to the Indians: <
It is we'll known that this policy
has most unjustly discouraged the
Indians III their efforts to advance
in civilization, and that while COM
plants have been continuously
made, no progress is made for the
reason that the Indian Bureau will
not permit voluntary disclosure or
admissions of facts which would
discredit the administration.
But it is hoped that the govern
ment will soon consider the Indian
in his Constitutional rights; that
he may breathe the free air OF
American justice, and so help to
develop his ambitious hopes for a
happy and progressive life here
among men. - +. .- ...,.

the performance of the Govern
ment in leaving 21,056 eligible

reproach, and also to provide
astricter supervision in securing

the abolition and prevention of

We therefore urge upon Con-
