Indians Take Heed,
(By Leta Myers Smart.)

-. (By Leta Myers Smart.)
When you 60 to Washington as
! delegate on tribal business it is
more important that you go there
with your pockets full of evidence
to prove your case, than to 20
there all dressed up in new suit
of clothes and have your pockets
full.of money. -, '::.
And it would be much better by
far if before you started for Wash
ington you mapped out a definite
program as to how you should
proceed after you get there. than
to wait until you got to Washing
ton and then fall into the hands of
some sinister lawyer or willy per-
spp in the Indian Bureau who will
direct you wrong. s.:: I'D i.
It has been said, and truthfully
said unfortunately, that many In
dams when they 90 to Washing
ton don't even seem to know what
they are talking about. Above all
things you sheuld know what you
are talking about, and you would
know what you are talking about
if YOU only got prepared before
hand. 81. ~.
j: Many Indians have the idea that
they can travel to Washington and
spend thousand dollars or more
and come home with all their affairs
satisfactorily wound up, but they
]. couldn't have a more foolish
thought, for about the only thing
that aetY4!lly happsnss is that thew
spend their thousand dollars or
more and continue to 60 around in
q circle of more rand momentuw
than the one they were going
around in when they first went
there. .-: r---
Indian affairs can never be set
tied until the Indians themselves
get 2 different view paiAt and be-
come serious aRd energetic and
courageous enough to do a little
work at home in connection With
the getting together of such evi'
denee as will be needed to prove
their ease and then go to WASH
ington on the right track. 1t. is
certainly not the right way to de-
eide today that you want to 60 to
Washington tomorrow and then
gather up all the money you can
and 80 to- ashingtop and blow i.
That is not getting your affairs
properly adjusted. If you are not
willing to wake up and to work at
leasta little to- get together the
evidence you will need to sub
stantiate your case, and unless you
can be serious and courageous
enough to take thai evidence to
Washington and 60 about your
case ia the right way you might
o. we'll sit dowa In your wigwams
and smoke the time away. - r
want to see the Indians sue
3. coed; am tired Of this everlasting
failure in these delegative trips to
Washington, and ! am vain enough
to think chat l may know the
fsasops Why most az them result
90 futiIly: It is because the dele
gates are not properly prepared in
the first place, and secondly it is
because of that undeniable policy
{ of the Indian Bureau to keep you
going around and around in .

from present indications they will re

"auSe the limit of hard coal pruduc-
tion between now and April l, 1923
Sill be only 80 per cent of the normal
output, it had been decided to ration

1t has, therefore, been decided that
during the coming winter all hard coal
consumers will be allowed only 60
per cent Of the amount they received
last year.
1t is suggested that houSeholderS
who mix smaller sizes. such as buck
wheat and pea. with larger grades
will relieve the situation Dealers de
clare there is greater amount Of
these small sizes on hand than of such
grades as nut. stove and egg. If these
suggestions are followed out. it is
said, every home should be sufficiently
