The Cloth Hat and Cap Makers, in
convention in New York, refused to
listen to an address by the propagan-
dist William 2. Foster.
The convention heard Gompers lay
down some hard and fast trade union
doctrine. Fosters friends and agents
then tried to get permission for him
to tell the convention all about his
union-busting Utopia. But the union
told him to go chase himself around
the block.
That's one darned good way of
handling the Foster propaganda!

Hearing is Held on Chip

Is Submitted TO The Court Of Appeals, Dis,

Many of our readers have made
inquiry recently as to what had
become of the injunction suit in.
stituted by John G. Morrison,
president of the General Council,
Minnesota Chippewas. in behalf
of the Indians, against Secretary
of the Interior Albert Bacon Fall,
and others, early last spring. This
suit was for the purpose of re-
straining the Secretary of the In,
terror from using the trust funds
of the Chippewas to defray ad-
ministrative expenses, or, in other
words, to compel the government
to live up to the provisions of the
treaty of 1889, commonly called
the Nelson Act.
Word has just been received
from Webster Ballinger, Wash
ington, d. c., attorney for the
Minnesota Chippewas, that a hear
ing had been held on this injunc
ton suit last week and that the
case had been submitted to Court
of Appeals, District of Columbia.
While Mr.. Ballnger's reference

states that he is well satisfied with

P. R. WadsWorth Meets
White Earth Residents.

p. r. Wadsworth. superintend
en-. of the consolidated Chippewa
agency at Cass Lake, paid a visit
to this reservation last week and
before leaving he met the residents
of this village. at their request, at
a meeting which was held IN the
Strand theater, Wednesday after
noon. Although the audience was
not large, many old and prominent
members of the tribe we're pre-
sent and made separate and earnest
appeals to Mr.. Wadsworth 60 use
his efforts to-. securat a 500 per
capita payment for the Chipoewas
under MS charge without delay.
Each stated that much distress ex-
listed among the Chippewas this
winter and if something was not
done Immediately great suffering
was sure to follow. In his reply
to the appeals made by members
of the tribe, Mr.. Wadsworth
stated what his mission here was;
stating that he was making a trip
over this reservation in order to
ascertain the exact conditions
among the people, that he had
been prompted to do this by the
fact that kilograms had been sent
from Mahnomen to prominent
men in Minneapolis or st. Paul,
stating that Indians in Mahnomep
county, and especially those re-
siding in the vicinity of Twin
Lakes, were starving, and which
message had been forwarded to
him by the party at St. Paul.
Mr.. Wadsworth talked for some
time regarding the issuing of ra
tions, etc, stating that it was i'm
possible to feed everybody with
what funds are available for that
purpose.
In referring to the matter of a
per capita payment, the Superin
tendent avoided the main issue
that of using his influence or at
least recommending that such a
payment be made, merely stating
that he himself could not make a
payment, and that it was not his
business to ''butt inn where the
matter lay wholly with his su-
periors in the Indian Bureau and
with Congress. Of course it was
understood by all that the Super
intendent could not make a per
capita payment, what was asked
of him was that he recommend
such a payment, and aid the Chip
.pewas in securing it, but this he
fatty refused to do. So far as
results are concerned, the meeting
amounted to nothing at all. Later
developments, however, look very
encouraging for a per capita pay
mens at an early date, regardless
of unfavorable action on the part
of agency superintendent or op-
position from the Indian Bureau.

ator Kellogg and Congressman
Larson both appeared and directly
advocated an increase in the ap-
preparation of $50, 900 as carried
in the Honse Bill to $500, 900 to be
used by the Bureau in purchasing
necessities and distributing them.
Both of them were favorable to
per capita payment, but stated
that in view of the opposition of
the Bureau they doubted whether
it could be obtained. Congress
man Larson gave somewhat de-
tailed report of his personal in
vestigation of conditions among
the Indians and showed that there
was much distress. Senator Kel-
logg stated upon information he
had received the situation was bad.
Commissioner Burke vigorously
opposed a per capita payment, /
explained to the Committee that
the appropriation of 100000 to,

and Congressman Larson. point
ed out that this money was the
money of the Indians, that they
needed it to relieve a distressing
situation, and that their views, not
the views of the Bureau, should be
considered. particularly when the
Commissioner was attempting to
depart from an established prac-
tice of distributing these funds in
per capita payments in order that
he might force through a new
plan which he had in mind. /
pointed out that there were $4,-
100000 in the trust fund, that
there was between ten and twenty .

ceived, and that the payment
