strength if they organize and
stand firmly together.
The wiser leaders see that the
quickest solution of the Indian
question lies in UNITED action
among all tribes. They realize
that the same fundamental action
that would solve the troubles of
the Chippewas in Minnesota would
also solve the troubles of the Sioux
of the Dakotas; of the Flatheads,
the Crows, the Blackfeet, and
others of Montana; the Apaches
and the Navajos OF Arizona; the
Pueblos of New Mexico; the So
called Five Civilized Tribes of
Oklahoma; the tribes in Washing
ton, Oregon and California-in
fact all the Indians in the United
States working together against
further dominance by our present
Indian Bureau can quickly gain
not only their personal freedom,
but can secure the benefit of their
wealth, and at all times have it
protected with full rights of an
accounting.
Not only do the thinking" In.
dians realize all the foregoing
possibilities but the thinking"
Senators and Congressman from
the States with strong Indian pop.

is today citizen and as such is
entitled as right to the protection
and the interest of such Senator or
Congressman.
The writer recently interviewed
most of the U. S. Senators from
the various states with Indian
Reservations, and without excep.

But better still is the viewpoint
developing among the broad mind

merous letters we find that they
are awakening to the fact that the
Indian is now a fellow citizen in
his State and as such-the privi-

These broad minded citizens
realize that they now have a vast

Usage Indians Petition
for the Removal Of
Commissioner Burke.


The Usage Indians of Oklahoma,
like the majority of other tribes in
the United States, are not in SYM
pathy with Charles H. Burke as
Commissioner of Indian Affairs.
Recently the Osages circulated a
petition which was signed by
practically the whole tribe, and
which was addressed to President
Coolidge, asking for the removal
of Charles H. Burke as Commits.
sioner of Indian Affairs. The
petition no doubt is the outgrowth
of the dissatisfaction among the
Osages caused. by the maladminis.
tration of their affairs by the In
dian Bureau under Mr.. Burke's
administration, and which was the
subject of a congressional investi.
cation recently. More especially
perhaps as regards the con6scation
and dissipation of large fortunes
belonging to individual members
of the Usage tribe, most conspici.
Gus of which was the million dollar
fortune of one, Jackson Barnett,
and which has aroused the indig.
nation of the whole country. As
usual in such Investigations, Com
missioner Burke, the Indian
Bureau and its administration of
the estate ofJackson Barnett and
of the Usage Indians in general
was treated to a liberal coat of
whitewash by the investigating
committee and the incident was
closed so far as Congress and the
Government were concerned. But
evidently the Usage Indians in
Oklahoma are of a different frame
of mind.

The Dawn Of a New
Day for the Indian,
(By Joseph w. Latimer)

The Indian citizenship law of
one year ago will, as we have con-
sistently and earnestly contende d,
be the basis for the solution of our
Indian question-and the only So.
luton is absolute freedom from
our paternalistic, grating Bureau
of Indian Affairs.
All the Indian wants is proper
delivery of, and protection of his
promised property; and then TO
BE LET ALONE-TO BE FREE TO
LEAD HIS OWN LIFE without the
constant surveillance, the enforced
supervision of Cd an antiquated
Bureaucracy; (2) of religious yea
lots, who force upon him their
varying conceptions of God; and
(3) of fashionable Benevolents
whose conception of the Indian is
that of a gaudy curiosity, and
whose interest in him is only All
excuse for ostentatious charity.
This trinity" ghoulishly working
hand in hand, have kept toe Amer.
lean Indian in slavery and have
enabled a stupendous dissipation
of his property.
But with Indian citizenship-the
Indian is realizing that while still
a "ward," he now has political
independence which, when devel-
oped. will entirely free him from
the enforced shackles of an auto
cratic Bureau.
From ali over the Indian coun-
try" we are getting news of this
awakening among the Indians.
Rapidly they are organizing in
small groups with leaders sworn
to fight the Indian Bureau, as now
organized, ito a finish" They
are awakening to their political

To Claim Chieftainship
Among Chippewas.
william Mossman to Visit White Earth
Reservation and Seek Recognition
BY the ehlppewas.

The following dispatch from
Honolulu, Hawaii Islands, ap-
peared in the press last week:
Honolulu, July 23.-William
Mossman of Wailuku Maui an.
nounces that he is leaving Hawaii
to become chief of the Chippe wa
Indians at White Earth, Mimi,
succeeding Chief Madison, who has
gone to Canada. Mr., Mossman
was born in Wailuku Maui in
1871. His father was an English.
man and his mother was descend
ed from Chief Rain in-the- Face"
The names mentioned in the
dispatch are misleading to US and
no doubt will be to our readers.
We know of no chief Madison or
chief Rain in the Face among the
Minnesota Chippewa. There were
and are today many Indians among
the Chippewas by the name OF
Madison, or Madison, but so far as
we are able to learD there never
was such a parsonage as Rain in
the Face among the Chippewas.
Rain in the Face was a Sioux
chief, not a Chippewa. However,
so far as Indian chiefs among the
Chippewas are concerned the term
chief means nothing whatever,
there is no such thing nowadays,
chiefs among the Chippewas are
not recognized either by the In
dams or the Government. In fact
there hain't no such animal. The
Chippewas will no doubt be glad
to welcome Mr.. MossmaD as a
friend and fellow tribesman, but
as to MS becoming chief of the
Minnesota Chippewas, that's an.
other matter. He may be
hereditary chief among the Chip.
pewas, as his mother was a direct
descendent of Hole in the-Day,
once head chief of the Chippewas,
no doubt the name Rain in the
Face, mentioned in the above
press dispatch is a mistake, but
the title of "Chief'' signifies moth
ing among the Chippewas today.
We are informed by old residents
here that some fifty years ago
missionaries among the Indians
often to took Indian children to
rear and educate, Mr.. Mossman's
mother was evidently among such
children, as the following letter
from her to Mr.. Joseph w. Lati-
mer of New York City, would
indicate. The letter was published
by Mr.. Latimer in his publication
and was reprinted by US in our
issue of December 4, 1924. As
the matter is attracting consider
able attention at present and will
no doubt be of interest to our
readers, we again reprint Mrs.
Mossman's communication below:
