Senator Johnson Intro
duces Indian Relief Bills

Senator Magnus johnson, of
Minnesota, last week introduced
in the Senate two bills providing
for the relief of the Chippewa In.
dians in Minnesota.
One of the bills is to compen-
safe the Chippewas for timber and
other interests in connection with
the settlement for the Minnesota
National Forest. 1t authorizes
the appropriation from the United
States treasury of $422,93O.O1
with interest thereon at the rate
of 5 per cent per annum from
February /, 1928, to the date of
settlement. This money to be
credited to the general fund of the
Chippewa Indians of Minnesota.
The second measure introduced
by Senator johnson will compen-
sato the Chippewas for the lands
disposed of under the provisions
of the free homestead act. 1t
authorizes the appropriation from
the United States treasury of ST.
1871, 751.36 with interest, which
will also be credited to the gen
eral fund of the Minnesota Chip
pewas. Interest on this amount
will be at the rate of 5 per cent
per annum from December 81,
1922, to the date of settlement.

Chief Moses Day..

Chief Moses Day came into
prominence in the eighties of the
last century, when ne usurped the
chieftainship of the Bois Fort,
Minnesota, Chippewa Indians from
Misquahgeshig, who was chief in
the direct line but who was not
suited for the Office. Later, at the
signing of the Sucker Point (Tow-
er, Mimi Agreement, in 1889, he
was one of the chief speakers.
Here be showed his ability and
also showed that he would leave
nothing undone for the benefit of
his people. ~
After signing the agreement in
1889, the Bois Fort Indians still
remained under the jurisdiction of
the LaPointe wis. } Indian agency,
some three hundred miles away.
Chief Day maintained that an
agent to be of any benefit to the
Indians should live On their reser
vation. On account of his con-
slant clamoripg the agency was
finally moved to Sucker Point
(Tower. Minn.), sixty miles from
Nett Lake, the home of the Bois
Fort Indians and the cite of their
reservation. Undaunted, the old
chief began his demands anew for
the agency to be established on the
Bois Fort Reserve, and in 1907 he
went to Washington with an in
terpreter, Rev. Frank H. Pequette,
and after q lengthy talk with the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
he was promised an agency at Nett
Lake, and, in compliance with that
promise. the agency was establish
ed there under Mr.. Thomas j..
jackson in the spring of 1908.
While Chief Day is uneducated,
his main hobby is education. There
is 60 person in Minnesota more
earnest about schools than this old
chief. Could he have been edu
Gated, he would have made an able
lawyer and statesman.

A. K. Torgerson, the popular
candidate for county commissioner
for this. the Fifth district, has
lived in the district close, to Fifty
years and, we believe, is better
qualified to fill! the Office of County
Commissioner to the satisfaction
of all concerned than any one of
the six candidates who are seeking
the office. Mr.. Torgerson's aim,
if elected, will be to serve all the
district and not only a portion of
it, as has been the policy of our
commissioners in the past. There
are highways in this vicinity that
connect with state trunk highways
and which are sadly in need of
permanent repair, we have not
been able up to this time to have
this done. but we look forward to
something in that line if Mr.. Tor
gerson is elected.

Indian Murder Up
Before Federal Court.
Joe Martin Up Before Federal Court at
Fergus Falls for Murder Of Red
Lake Woman.

Joe Martin, mixed blood Indian.
who for some time has made his
home on the Red LAX reservation,
is on trial this week at Fergus
Falls for the murder of Miss Susan
Defoe, young Indian woman
mysteriously slain three years ago
last fall while picking berries near
her home on the Red Lake reser-
vation. Arrest of Martin was
made last fall after three years of
investigation which included the
arraignment of another man on
the murder charge, at which time
Martin was to appear as a witness
against him.
Michael Johannes, special agent
for the United States Department
of Justice, after many months of
thorough Investigation linked up
evidence which he hopes will pene-
trate the mystery which has en-.
veloped the case for years.
Miss Defoe was found uncon-
scious, terribly beaten, about "a
hours after she disappeared. Her
aged father, accompanied by Mar
tin, searched for her throughout
the night and said he heard means
but later decided the means we're
the lowing of cattle.
This murder mystery is said to
be the most important case to
come before the Federal court at
Fergus Falls this term.

Files for Lieut.. Governor.

Frank H. Keyes, of Internation-
al Falls, has filed for the nomina-
ton of Lieutenant Governor on the
Farmer.Labor ticket. Mr.. Keyes
is we'll and favorably known
throughout the state and will no
doubt receive strong support, es-
pecially throughout the northern
section of the state. So far as
the Minnesota Chippewas are con-
cerned they will no doubt cast
their vote for Mr.. Keyes. as he is
advocating the policy of state
supervision over the Minnesota
Chippewas, not as wards" but as
citizens. The Farmer-Labor party
has done much looking to the
welfare of the Chippewas and at
its convention in St. Cloud went
on record as favoring any legisla-
tion which Representative Wefald,
or Senators Shipstead and johnson
might propose regarding Chippe-
wa Indian matters.
If Mr.. Keyes is elected and is
successful in his efforts to have the
administration of Chippewa affairs
turned over to the state to conduct
instead of the Federal government
it would be the best thing that
ever happened to the Indians, for
it goes without saying that they
are mighty tired of the manner in
which their estate is being ad
ministered by the Indian Bureau.

feasts also on this day, but they are
