"Wo are glad that Mr. Baker
'etepped into tho limelight and op
osed the proposed bill offered by
Wr. Ashurst. It has done the very
thing that should be done to accom
plish the best results it hns brought
About a public discussion of its pro
Tlslons and centered upon it tho
minds of the people in this section
"who are most deeply interested in
tho object of the measure the
opening of tho reservation. No ono
can honestly dispute Mr. Baker's
earnest desire to work for tho best
Interests of the community, no mat
ter how vigorously they may differ
"with his proposals. Neither can Mr
Ashurst's position bo unreservedly
supported, even though it has the
backing of the Indians themselves.
Both men have gone too far in their
own directions, forgetting that there
is a middle ground, upen which they
Tnust stand if they are going to meet
with success and at the same time
protect the rights and interests of
the Indians and the people of Klam
ath county.
One thing Is certain the reserva
tion must not be thrown open unre
servedly, leaving the Indians the
competent ones to be the victims
f their more advanced brothers, as
well as the unscrupulous white vul-
'tares who are waiting fcr an oppor
tunity to prey upon them. They must
ot be denied the right of self-government

out into the broad field of
world politics to choose a term that
1U with a nicety into a question so
dose at home. It is onr belief that
e suggestions of both Mr. Baker
and Mr. Ashurst can be amalgamat
ed and formed into a workable plan

that will givo to tho Indians Just
what they aro asking for and h:vo
a right to demand, will treo tho In

tho Indian nureau, protect tho tim
ber resources of tho reservation for
tho benefit of tho Indians thetusolvcs.
as well as for tho watershed that is
so important to tho future of this
county.
This plan simply provides for tho
administration of the afTairs of tho
Indians by the Indians thomsolves.
through a tribal council, assisted
by a board cf consultors. consist
ing of one member appointed by the
governor of the state, one by tho In
dians and the third selected by these
two, no cne of the three having any
direct or indirect connection with
the reservation. This board would
act as a bulwark between tho ag
gression of tho whites and tho In
dians; it would keep a watchful oyo
on the administrative affairs of tho
reservation and the actions of tho
Indian council. It could mnko in
vestigations either on request or on
its own initiative. It could offer
suggestions to the council In a
word it would bo tho good friend
that would stand as the "manda
tory" for the Indians. The timber
land of the reservation could be sold
by the Indians through their coun
cil, to 'be logged under the most
modern methods, the proceeds to be
distributed among the tribe in per
petuity. It would be an "indissolu
ble asset" that would bo an insur
ance to the Indians agalnBt want
x -vtj. . r
and prevont them over becoming a
charge upon this county.
; Soiuo objection hns been raised to
, this plan en the ground that It does
'not givo to tho lml I im that freedom
enjoyed by his white brother, but
this argument Is not well taken. Tho
' white brother 1ms his forest reservo,
with this difference ho bus nothing
to say about Its administration. The
government autocrats nt Washington
I dictate that. L'ndor tho proposed
plan. Wa8hlgton Is out of tho ruser
tvntlcn completely. No measure
i should bo considered for an Instant
I that would give to Washington one
iota of a say In the affairs of the
reservation. Every provision to pro
tect tho Indian against these pocket
pickers should bo taken Just as care
fully as they should bo protected
i against any other unscrupulous white
man. Lot us unite to stop It no is.
but in stopping the bureau thieves,
do not let us turn loose on tho In
dians a horde of other thieves equal
ly as bad. Let us romember thnt
our first duty is to protect all of tho
Indians, not only against dishonest
whites but against dishonest In
dians. This can bo accomplished
through a well designed board of
conBultors, with sulllclent authority
to help, but not enough to govern
or control the Indians. With such
a plan laid bofore Congress, having
tho indorsement of tho Indians and
tho people of this county and state,
the Klamath Indian reservation will
bo opened at an early date. Follow
either of tho plans proposed by Mr.
Daker or Mr. Ashurst, and it will
still remain in tho hands, of tho In
dian burenu and an asset nof foi tho
Indians but a plaything for dishon
est officials, who enro more for their
own comfort and pleasure than the
rights and welfare of tho innocent
Indian wards they have been hired
to protect.
