THAT EAST GRAND VIEW
ROAD QUESTION.

"I'd 20 four or five miles out OF
my way rather than again attempt
to negotiate your road from pave
ment to pavement again"
This is the statement made Tues.
day evening to q representative OF
The Enterprise. The party who made
the statement was q Denver contrac-
tor who builds apartments for veal
thy Denver residents after selecting
what he thinks are good sites in good
n case doubt is felt Is to the
eenuineness Of his viewpoint, he left
kis name and address at this office.
Actual loss is seen in this one ex-
psrienee, for the gentlement was in
vistigating the possibilities Of the
town as q residence center, and was
driven out at once because Of the
condition Of the east end Of the ave-
nue..
It seems high time that the road
be put in good condition, it being
pointed out that an attempt to leave
the road go over the winter will
make it nigh impossible.

Commissioner Burke
Opposed to Per
Capita Payment,

Commissioner Of Indian Affairs
Chas. H. Burke, is quoted in the
Twin City press as saying that he
is opposed to any cash payments
being made to Indians under any
circumstances, Minnesota Chippe-
was included. These statements
by Mr.. Burke were made. accord
ing to the Twin City papers, in
response to inquiries made by
representatives of the pres regard
ing the startling facts recently and
at the present time being published
in the metropolitan papers regard
ing the deplorable conditions
among the Minnesota Chippewas,
and which is the result of United
States Senator Saipstead's and
Representative Wefald's recent
visit to the Minnesota Indian
country, and also as a result of
Investigations by the representa-
tives Of the press. The Commits
sioner denies that there is anyone
in a starving condition on the
White Earth reservation, and
says that his "inspectors' will be
sent to White Earth Immediately
and, should the situation warrant,
aid, in the shape of rations will be
given to those in need. Yes, no
doubt White Earth will see in
spectors very much in evidence
Indian Bureau inspectors, sent
to inspect the doings of the In
dian Bureau, i'll fact it is a case of
the Indian Bureau investigating
itself-its own acts. Gould any
thing be more ridiculous? Does
The Tomahawk. [volume] (White Earth, Becker County, Minn.) 1903-192?, 1923-11-15

anyone suppose that these Indian
Bureau inspectors, in the employ
of the Indian Bureau, will find
anything amiss with the Bureaus
administration of the affairs of the
Chippewas. Anyone with vestige
of common sense knows they will
not-every thing will be fine and
ali reports greatly exaggerated. :"
This move is chacteristic Of
Commissioner Burke, who, since
bis appointment as commissioner
! of Indian affairs has been making
every effort to revert to the old,
discarded ration system" of the
past regarding aid to the American
Indian, and to keep all funds be-
longing to them under the control
of the indian Bureau, to be used
by that Bureau for relief and
civilization" salaries for an army
of employees, etc. In fact for any
purpose rather than let the In
dians get any of it. This practice
of issuing ratious to certain ones
who are in need is unjust to those
who do not need rations and VINO
do not receive any, but who,
nevertheless have an equal share
in the tribal funds used to pur-
chase them. And again, the In
dian cannot pay bills, hire a team
to haul wood, buy necessary
clothing for himself and family,
or obtain the many other little
necessities of life with "rations. :"
Last year the Chippewas peti,
toned for an appropriation from
their tribal FUNDS for an Old Folks
Home to care for the aged and
infirm Indians, this appropriation
was allowed by Congress, but the
Iudian Bureau never opened up
at Old Folks Home, instead the
money is being used to perpetuate

Frank B. Kellogg has been
named ambassador to Great Brit
ain. Frank B. is the same old
Kellogg that was discharged by
the people of Minnesota when
they preferred to have Shipstead
making their laws for them. This
is a decided slap at the judgment
of Minnesota voters, but the end
is not yet. Another election is
coming and the voters of this state

of Minneapolis, following a series
of council gatherings.
They are moving for the relief
of the Indians. At council with
representatives of the White Earth
Chippewa council at Hawley Fri
day, Congressman Wefald pledged
himself to introduce a bill for 8
special appropriation when Con
gress meets in December. 1t will
ask that a payment of $1OO from
tribal funds be made to each Indian
on the tribal rolls to aid them ir
buying food and clothing to carry
them through the winter.
Bound By Red Tape.
Yet before the action contem-
plated by the Minnesota congress-
men can be taken, the red tape
attending government procedure
unwound and before the money
can be placed in the hands of the
Indians it will be late in January
at the best. Suffering and death
for scores of the aged, INDECENT
and little children in the interven-
ing interval is inevitable. for the
law of nature operates rslentlessly.
An Indian cannot live withou,
fuel, clothing or food. Neither cal
a white man.
There are no easy winters fol
the Indian. Winter and the great
white silence have always been fol-
him a time of terror. Yet not in
many years has he seen the
''sheshibe" wild duck) wing away
to the southwark and the muskrat
build his winter house with the
sense of foreboding he feels today.
Insfficisnsy; Crops Don't Pay.
The Indians plight at the pres
ent time appears to be the result
of two things:
The first aud most lamentable is
ineficiency of the Indian depart
ment.
The second is the same condition
that affects the farmer of the
northwest, for where he has raised
any crop at all, and these cases are
few, it is potatoes. There is NO
market for them.
The Indian departments en-
ployes are in charge of system OF
rationing. There is much com
plant against it. Not all the
people need rations now. But
scores that do are not receiving
them. Indians charge that the
governments representatives are
favoring some Indians and totally
disregarding others who are near
the verge of starvation.
Beg at Missions.
For the first time in many years
Indians are appearing in some
numbers to beg food at the St.
Benedict's mission school.
There is no work for Indians to
do on the White Earth reservation.
Indian boys are working for a
wage of 25 cents day on wood
saving rigs and spending their
pitiful wages to relieve the suffer,
ing and distress of their aged
relatives.
Hundreds already are suffering
from malnutrition. They will enter
the severe period of the winter un.
der-nourished and easy prey for
the diseases of famine and pesti-
lence that have scourged them for
centuries.
There will be many pitiful pro-
cessions this winter to- the bleak
and wind swept cemeteries of the

 Mr. Griffith began work on this new offering in his studios at Mamaroneck, N. Y. Then he set forth in quest of genuine and un- trammelled southern countryside.

Farewell Attraction Promises To Be Best Of The En-
 tire Season

Next week has a special signifi- canoe for the theatregoers in that 1t marks the end of the engagement here of the popular resident company al the Lyric. This organization has proved the most popular that has ever made a stay here and regret Is being expressed on every side that 1t is leaving. The management as a farewell production has chosen The Naughty wife" which is classed as one of the cleverest comedies of the decade.
 "The Naughty Wife" is the sort of play which offers the capable play CTS of the Lyric company plenty of opportunity for the exercise of their talents and the members make the most of the chance Raymond Bram- ley, Beatrice Maude and Russell tili- ,ii more have the principal roles, while tho others in the organization are well cast.
 "The naughty Wife" was written by Fred Jackson. The theme of the play Is ifferent-refreshing new, "-or might we say, extraordinary" It tells of a man, or rather husband. Or is there any difference between these two species after all? But, beg your pardon, to the theme again: Well-she was young, she was pretty, she was married Her husband cared more for his books than he did for his wife-apparently-to all ap- pearances-so to speak. At least she thought so. She was convinced D. that is, she convinced herself; and then-Aha! Then the other man came into her life. He also had ideas. His ideas were similar to hers-he liked fe-excltement-cabarets-and-and he liked her.
 Then the inevitable happened. No lit happened absolutely different from what you think. Dear Hubby, who really loved her. spoiled the lit- tie affair." but how he did it is good for the grouchiest grouch that was ever grouched.
 "The Naughty Wife" is a whale of a play. It was produced originally at the Harris Theatre, New York, with Charles Cherry and Violet Hem ing in the leading roles.

ExtraVagant Cabaret Scenes Mark Unusual Brilliant
 Production

No fashionable cabaret in New York. the City of Lights, can surpass in brilliance or color or extraVa- .gance of finish that which is used in George Fitzmaurice's Paramount pjroduction of Experience" which is to be shown at the Capitol thea tre Monday and Tuesday. The see mario of this well-known play by George V. Hobart, called for a typi- cal New York restaurant, after the manner of such institutions of pleasure before the days of prohibit tion. No expense was spared to make this scene realistic and beau tiful.
 The color scheme is black and gold with a background of gold metal cloth. Huge ornate pillars, capped with metal domes, are set at intervals on the dining room floor.
 A striking effect was obtained in this scene by the use of four little girls who scared above the dancers in swings and dropped rose leaves on thef crowd below Five hundred pounds of artificial rose leaves and two bushels of confetti were let loose from snow" banks above the setting.
 Although onlS one-quarter of the cabaret was built it accommodated four hundred people. For richness

 For Wednesday and Thursday the Capitol has for screening Sinclair Lewis famous novel, Main Street" which played here formerly at 90 cents admission, but which will be shown at the regular Capitol price. Due to the fact that hundreds were turned away at it's first showing, the management advises their pa irons to come early and see this wonderful story in picture form.
 For Friday and Saturday, Betty Compson in At the End of the World" will be the attraction, and this picture is considered one of her best pieces of work. Remember, spend an hour and see a show, down where ocean breezes blow.
