The Indians of Red Lake are op- posing Senator Nelson's bill provid- ing for the establishment of a for- est reserve within the Red Lake In- dian agency. One of the reasons why they are opposed to this bill is that they do not know the source from which it sprang nor what prompted it, nor do they understand why they were not taken into con- sultation in the matter before the bill was drafted or presented. Of course it will be said that this was the same resolution introduced some time ago, but they were not consulted then and they have not been consulted now. There are many well educated and well informed Indians on the Red Lake reservation, perfectly competent to determine what is best to be done. There are about 1,400 Indians that own this reservation. It is theirs and they are entitled to be consulted in advance and unless their wishes are clearly in error, they should be heeded. We believe that the Indians be- lieve that if this large portion of their reservation is put within the Forestry Department of the United States of America they will realize nothing eventually for their prop- erty and that it will build up a de- partment on their reservation, expen- sive to maintain, objectionable to the Indians who come in contact with it, limiting the Indians’ activities and gradually will drive them from their hemes. The Indians have been encouraged to follow agricultural pursuits and they have met with remarkable suc- cess. The limit of the leasing of land for grazing purposes or farm- ing purposes for ten years will not encourage the clearing and the cul- tivation of the land. The Indians will probably resent the idea that the government has a right to lease to individuals lands which belong to the tribe. They will hardly un- derstand that the government has this legal right. The Red Lake Indians are com- paratively happy in their present surroundings and with the bright future before them they are compara- tively fast improving their reserva- tion along the agricultural lines. The passage of this act will cause them to be sour, grouchy, dissatisfied, mis- trustful and fearful of the result of a forestry administration of their property. The measure, we feel sat- isfied, will work out injuriously. So far as the project of refores- tration is concerned, it is unfair to the Red Lake Indians to set apart one-half of their property for this purpose without full immediate com- pensation from the government. To take this large area of the Indian lands for forestry purposes without immediate compensation and admin- ister it with a view of reforestration for the benefit of those who are to come one hundred to two hundred years from now would be looked up- on as unfair to the Indians. Every citizen of Northern Minne- sota should protest against the set- ting apart of this vast area for for- estry and reforestration purposes. Over one-half of the land thus set apart is much more suitable for the agricultural purposes than for fores- try or reforestration.purposes. Re- forestration cannot be successfully accomplished where the Indian and white people are permitted to go per- miscuously over the land, and that to prevent this would necessitate an expense that neither the government or the Red Lake Indians should bear. The establishment of this great forest reserve in the central portion of Beltrami county would seriously hamper, delay, retard and defeat the development of Beltrami county. A glance at the map shows that this great reserve extends almost entirely across Beltrami county. The bill is| an outrage on the citizens of this and adjoining counties. The pine is the smallest item in regard to the bill Nearly one- fourth of the timber within the area proposed to be set apart has now matured and has _entered upon the process of decay and another fourth ‘has, matured but- 'has not yet entered upon the process of decay. About one-half™is still growing timber. A wise and economical administration of this reservation’s affairs ought to be able to sell at a good price the decaying and mature timber, bring- ing into the treasury of the Red Lake Indians a large and continuous in- come. Reforestration of some meas- ure will set in, subject to the rights of the Indian to cultivate such lands as might be fit for cultivation and nse the other lands for pasture, ete., just as it ought to be. There is a peculiar condition upon the reservation. Several hundred thousand acres of good tillable land, one-third of which is composed of the most beautiful blue joint meadow land that one ever saw, fertile soil easily subject to cultivation, timber, the mature portion of which could be readily sold, and only 1,400 Indians interested and still the revenue, ex- cept from the sale of a small amount of timber is nothing. The farmers along the south side of the Clear- water river opposite the reservation have endeavored time and again to have the department adopt some plan for leasing the Clearwater meadows to these farmers, but without suc- cess. The most that has been done is now and then the granting of a permit to cut some little spot of meadow. Mr. Dickens, the present agent, has applied himself to the discharge of his duties as agent in a most re- markable manner with most eredit- able results and now it is rumored that he is to be removed to some other ageney. If this happens the What Is Uric Acid ? THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM, GRAVEL AND SUDDEN DEATH. E:.r since the discovery of uric acid in the blood by Scheele, in 1775, and the bad effect it had upon the body, scientists and physicians have striven to rid the tissues and the blood of this poison. Because of its over- abundance in the system it causes backache, pains here and there, rheu- matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica. It was Dr. Pierce who dis- covered a new agent, called *Anuric,” which will throw out and completely eradicate this uric acid from the sys- tem. “Anuric” has proved to be 37 times more potent than lithia, and consequently you need no longer fear muscular or articular rheumatism or out, or many other diseases which are %ependem on an accumulation of uric acid within the body. Send to Dr. Pierce, of the Invalids’ Hotel and Sur- gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., for a pamphlet on * Anuric,” or send 10 cena for a trial package of * Anuric Tablets.” If you feel that tired, worn-out feeling, backache, neuralgia, or if your sleep is disturbed by too frequent urination, go to your best drug store and ask for Doctor Pierce’s Anuric Tablets. Doctor Pierce’s reputation is back of this medicine and you know that his “Golden Medical Discovery” for the blood and his “Favorite Prescription” for the ills of women have had a splen did reputation for the past fifty years. Doctor Pierce’s Pellets are unequaled as a Liver Pill. One tiny Sugar-coated Pellet a Dose. Cure Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Constipa~ tion, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks, and all derangements of the Liver, Stomach and Bowels, BRAINERD MAN ON EVE OF OPERATION E. A. Spohn Finds Relief With First Dose of Remarkable Remedy for Stomach. B. A. Spohn of Brainerd, Minn., R. I, D. No. 2, was so dangerously ill that his physician declared he could not live unless he was operated upon. He feared an operation and in seek- ing a way out he tried Mayr's Won- derful Remedy. It succeeded. After he had gained back his strength he wrote: “I thought I would let you know how I was benefited by Mayr's Won- derful Remedy. I took it some time ago. It did all that you claimed it would do. I was so bad that the doc- tors told me I could not live without an operation, but I did not have one and I don’t think I shall ever need one now. I have felt no signs of gall stones since I took your treatment.” Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy gives per- manent results for stomach, liver and intestinal ailments. Eat as much and whatever you like. No more distress after eating, pressure of gas in the stomach and around the heart.

The Indians can- not be guided by one in whom they have not acquired confidence and for whom they have no regard. It takes time to inspire in their minds full confidence and earn their regard. They have full confidence in Mr. Dickens and have regard for every suggestion that he makes. The es- tablishing of a forest reserve and the entering upon a system of refores- tration and the abandonment of the progressive ideas carried out by the Indians under Mr. Dickens’ guidance will ‘seriously interfere with the de- velopment of Beltrami and adjoining counties. The disastrous result of the set- ting apart of the -forest reserve around Cass Lake is a most effective warning to avoid if possible putting a similar mill stone around the neck of the progressive people of this county. Determined opposition against the Nelson bill will be made by every- one who becomes acquainted with the provisions of the bill and who may be familiar with the situation at the Red Lake Indian reservation.
