The Tomahawk., 1924-03-20
A Poor Attempt.

In last weeks issue, under the
caption "A Communication" we
published an article by Rev. E. q.
Ksh o Sed, pastor of St. Colum-
ba's Episcopal Mission here, in
whi:h he attempts to justify state
ments made by him regarding the
Chippewas on this reservation be,
fore the 500 per capita payment
was made to them. In his article
Rev Kah o Sed also taken occasion
to mention the shortcomings of
the editor of The Tomahawk. The
Rev. gentleman mentions only two
cases in which he claims error was
made when the pictures were pub.
lished in the Minneapolis Journal
and their condition described. One
of these we know to our own
knowledge made repeated requests
at store in this village for aid.
stating that the family were in
dire need. Mr.. Kah o Sed also
states that the publicity given the
condition among the Chippewas
had the desired effect, in that the
$10O per capita payment was given
sooner than it would have been
had it not been for such publicity.
The trend of his article would lead
one to believe that he did not
favor the payment at all, and at
the conclusion of his article he
states that he hopes that the ap
peals for charity for the Indians
would cease. In our estimation
the Chippewas have never asked
for charity, what charity they did
receive was not asked'f for by them
and only offered by those who could
not stand by and see the Indians
suffer. So far as the payment is
concerned, we do not consider
it as, cnarity, asking a payment
from their own funds is not seek.
The Tomahawk., 1924-03-20

Is years of age, and permanently
and totally disabled, as a result of
having both legs amputated, neces-
STATED by freezing.
Your committee desires to take
issue with Mr.. Wadsworth's gen.
eral statement as to issue of ra.
tions, and states that Joseph Fair
banks of Naytahwaush on the
White Earth reservation, reports
that in December, 1923, rations
were issued to ~ persons only,
and up to and including Jan. 18,
rations had been issued to so per
sons, out of a population of ap
proximately 800. This ration
consisted of 20 pounds of flour,
three pounds of beans, 10 pounds
of pork and that is all.
"At White Earth, the rations
issued seemed to be more liberal,
consisting of 20 pounds of -four,
10 pounds of beans, 5 to 10 pounds
of pork, 2 pounds of tea and 4
pounds of sugar.
This ration was to last the In.
dividual for 80 days"
The committee charges Mr..
Wadsworth could have taken full
care of the Indians. but failed to
do so. Officials of the Indian
Bureau in Washington informed
the committee he had all the money
for which he asked, and there
there should have been no neces-
sity for outside aid. =
The White Earth reservation
presentsa a marked contrast with
that at Red Lake, the committee
said, where the agent, B. H.
Dooley, has given his personal
attention to each case, and has
kept the needy supplied with food
and medical attention.
The Tomahawk., 1924-03-20

ing charity by any means. We
have not heard one Indian, and we
have talked to a great many since
Mr.. Kah O Sed's communication
was published, say that they agree
with him, on the contrary many
have expressed dissatisfaction at
the article.
Mr.. Kah 0 Sed's attempts to
justify his repeated statements
that there we're no starving In.
dams on White Earth reservation
prior to the per capita payment
comes with poor grace after the
many Investigations made by
responsible parties who all report
ed to the contrary. We know of
our own knowledge that there was
much hardship and suffering
among the. people on the reserva-
ton, and it was not necessary to
60 thirty miles to see it either. OF
course, person is not starved
to death' until they are dead, but
that is a mighty poor time to offer
relief. The efficient Indians"
referred to by Mr.. Kah o Sed,
are here and would be just that if
they were given what rightfully
belongs to them. No man, red or
white, can get along with any
degree eff prosperity and comfort
in this vale of tears if everything
he possesses is kept from him by
a bunch of bureauc-ats as the In.
dians' money and property is. So
far as the great good the govern.
ment is doing and is ready to do"
for the Indians, as set ou: by Mr..
Kah O Sed, we have yet to see
any evidence of this to any extent.
If keeping the Indian as an Indian,
shutting him up on reservations
and giving him just enough of
what belongs to him to keep him
alive; squandering bis money by
the thousands of dollars each year,

Copies of the report were sent
to the governor, and to the Bureau
of Indian Affairs at Washington.
Members of the committee are:

adjutant general; John G. Morri-
son, Jr., Red Lake, and Edward

Mr.. Rogers investigated con
ditions at Ponsford, while the
other two members of the commit

worth charged that the committee
made its report on list that con-
tained the names of four dead
persons.
The committee replied that it
used the list merely I'm order to
simplify the search for those who
were in great need of aid.
Two of the names given by Mr..
Wadsworth- as dead, died more
than a year ago, the committee
admits, but. the other two died,
one Dec. 5, 1928, and the other
Jan. 8, after the Ist had been
complied. <.

of such investigation" the report
says.
HE further states that a nurA-
ber of the Indians on whom we
reported had funds due on deposit
in the agency which could be and
were used for their relief. III
In Mr.. Wadsworth's letter of
Feb. g, he submits list of six
names of men as having money
due, and with. the exception of
Little Wolf. not one of them were
interviewed by this committee"
Little Wolf received the last
payment on Sept. %, 1923, and
has received nothing since that
time except the Indian ration,

Mr.. Wadsworth further states

LA VERENDRYE
To open a path to the shores Of
the Pacific Ocean was the aim. of
the French Canadian explores La
Verendrye who, with three sons,
a nephew, and a company of some
fifty men, pushed into the interior
west of Lake Superior in 1871,
following the route of the Pigeon
River and the series of lakes and
streams along the present northern
boundary of Minnesota.
Among several forts built by the
members of the expedition was
Fort ST. Charles, put up in 1872
on the south side of the inlet to the
northwest angle of the Lake OF
the Woods. This early post on
Minnesota soil was occupied some
twenty years. Its buildings, con
structed of logs and clay and GOV.
cred with bark" were eventually
burned down by forest fire and
the very site, lost in the uninhabit-
ed woodland, was forgotten. In
july, 1908, it was discovered by a
party of Jesuit professors from
| ST. Boniface College in Manitoba.
Near the fort in 1875 was enacted
q grim tragedy of murder. A sou
of La Verendrye, a missionary
named Jean Piarre Aulneau, and
nineteen voyageurs, who had just
started from the fort to Mackinac
for supplies, were surprised and
killed on an island in Lake of the
Woods by war party of Prairie
Sioux. ~ .u@~a ~"
Neither La Verendrye nor bis
sons found the ocean beyond which
lay the Cathay of their dreams.
One of the sons in 1912 led a party
far into the west, however, possi.
bly, to the Rocky Mountain region,
perhaps only to the Black Hills.
In 1918 there was found on a hill
side IN Fort st. Pierre, South Da-
kota, an inscribed metal plate
deposited by this exploring party
on March 30, 1743.

is doing him a great good" then
the government is most efficient.
However, this bantering back
and forth will avail the Indians
nothing and, so far as we are
concerned, we would rather it
would cease.
