by John R. Grown, general secre

to the forefront, he said, because
of the passage by Congress of q

The Romance Of
The Fur Trade.

The industry of fur trading is
saturated with romance. And,
despite the increasing use of mod.
ern transportion, the fur trade re-
mains practically the same. In
the middle Of the seventeenth GEN.
tury the fur business of the wild
erness was launched by stout
hearted Frenchmen, and is still
one Of the old time barteripg
trades remaining on this continent.
At its earliest period two men
established on the shores of New
France the first white mans trad.
ing post. In 1851 the governor
of Quebec took from them $4,000
in fines, an incident which proves
that these gallant men were as
capable traders as they were good
explorers.
Though inaugurated by the
French, who we're soon followed
by the English, it remained for
the Scotch to fill up the ranks of
the fur traders, until today so per
cent of the men in charge of the
isolated posts of the far North are
Scotchmem. And it is said that
many an Indian who wishes to
take on the outward signs of white
civilization adopt such throaty
names as MacDuff, Mckenzie,
Stewart, and Anderson.
Wherever the white man tarries
in the wilderness of the North
today, you will 6nd these trading
posts, tight little cabins Of rough
hewn timber. with their inevita BILE

The Indian
Citizenship Bill
(Elmire IN. " Telegram)


The Elmire Telegram in enabled
through an article written exclu-
sively for this paper by Joseph w.
Latimer, to give its readers the
inside workings" of the passage
of the Indian Citizenship Bill, en-
acted by Congress last year.
Many claims have been made by
various people for the passage of
this bill which gave the native of
this country, the American Indian,
the right of citizenship, for so
many years denied them. To just
whom the credit really belongs for
the passage of this bill and how
the legislation was put through"
although bitterly opposed by GER
tain factions, is told in Mr.. Lati-
mer's article.
The authority of Mr.. Latimer
on this subject cannot be question
ed. He is a recognized leader of
the American Indian interests and
has for the past few years been
working for Indian welfare in
Washington. D. G. One of the
things that ne had been working
for was the granting of citizenship
to the Indian. Consequently he
was in a position to know just how
the bill was passed, who the men
were that were responsible for its
passage, and the men who so Bit
terly opposed it for various rea-
sons.
He also reveals in his article
how the opposing elements tried
to change the bill by recommend.
ing an amendment to the original,
which if enacted would have put
the Indians in the power of certain
political factions.
His article follows:
History of the Passage of
the Indian Citizenship Bill
Our citizens do not realize that
until an act of Congress one year
ago, the American Indian had no
right to become a citizen by the
two routes all other residents be-
come citizens, namely: first, native
born or second, naturalization.
In many Congresses, bills have
been introduced to grant our In
dian the right of citizenship, only
to have the same die even before
reaching the Indian Committee.
But in the first session of the
last Congress. the American In
dian, the only genuineenative born
citizen. came into the simple heri-
tage of common fairness and JUS
tice. 1t is the first step toward
freedom and a settlement of our
so-called Indian problems that
have ever been enacted by Con-
gress.
To the Congressional District
served by The. Elmire Telegram
this Indian citizenship bill is pc:
culiarly interesting as your Con.
gressman Gale H. Stalker intro
duced the first bill for such citi-
zenship Dec. II, 1928, at the be-
ginning of the last session, and
the history of its enactment may
be of interest.
This bill read: ~.
''That henceforth all Indians
born within the territorial lin
its of the United States shall
be citizens of the United
States and of the several States
thereof in which they may re-
side. "
"That they be entitled to all
the privileges of citizenship
On the same day, but later,
Congressman Howard of Nebras
ka introduced a bill reading iden.

The foregoing bill had the en-

by the House, the Senate
Committee on Indian Affairs con
sidered a protest filed by some tel
Indians then in Washington, D
c., and guided by such nationally
known Indians as Meade Steele
James Arcndale, William Madison
and j. Eagleheart. Such protes
read:
"This Indian citizenship bill is
10 constructed that it gives the
Secretary of the Interior and
the Bureau of Indian Affairs
absolute control over the
granting of citizenship. The
Indian deserves citizenship,
simple, direct, without any
opportunity for bargaining by
those who have the power him.
They want no opportunity
given to :heir rulers to sell"
citizenship for support an in
fuence. There are Indians
today held as incompetent, as

the Indians their freedom is

ciples of democratic govern.
