LAND QUARREL IS BLAMED Stabbing Victim's Brother Joins in Plea That White People Believe Their Race Is Xot Bloodthirsty and Record of Crime Cited. KLAMATH FALLS, Or, Aug. 2. (To the Editor.) We, whose names are signed to this paper, are Klamath In dians. We have Just witnessed an ex amination before Justice Gowen which has resulted in binding Joseph Brown, an Umpqua Molalla Indian, over to the Federal Court in Portland for stabbing to death our fellow tribesman, Eugene Isaacs. The cause of this homicide was a quarrel over the right of way through the said Joseph Brown's allotment and was not the result of intoxicating liquor, which has been the cause of several homicides during the past few years. We know that under the law, which we all wish to see enforced, we can say nothing that would influence pub lic opinion, for this case must come to trial and be decided on the evidence then produced, but we wish to let the people know what our attitude is in such matters, and that we are not a people that are murderous In charac ter, but that our desire is to obey the law and live as becomes honorable American people, loving peace and quiet, and who wish to be respected as the loyal subjects of a Government we are proud to honor and obey. Early Attention to Troubles Asked. In this case we do not wish to re reflect on anyone, nor assert that the authorities should have acted promptly in settling this question of the right of way, if the case had been presented to them before this occur rence, but when there are reasons for difference in such cases they should be promptly reported for adjustment to the superintendent, and he should, of course, act with promptness, so as to prevent as far as possible troubles that may result seriously between individ uals. One signer of this paper Is a brother of the man lately killed. Their father. Isaao Nekobux, was a law-abiding man and a Christian one who taught his children to respect the law and never to resort to the old bloody methods of settling disputes that were common in the days before the white man's law and the Christian religion became our guides. This signer, Simon Isaacs, now feels no spirit of revenge against the man who took his brother's life, and his only wish is to see the true facts brought forth in the trial and the law honestly enforced. Bloodtblrstlness Is Denied. We believe the record will show that we are not a bloody people. The great treaty which was made In October, 1S64. which gave us the Klamath Res ervation as our heritage, bound us to the observance of the vhite man's law. Since then about 12 homicides have oc curred on the reservation. Is this a bad record for more than 1000 people for more than 61 years? Half of these murders were Indirectly due to the in fluence of alcoholic drinks, something which was introduced Into the country by white people, along with the great advantages they brought to the red man. Two of the homicides were by a mad man: one the result of Indian super stition; two premeditated assassina tions, and one the killing or an Indian by an angry white man who was graz ing stock on Indian land and who re sented the Indian's defense of his own property. Five men who were guilty of these murders were not by blood Klamath Indians. s In conclusion, we only wish to say to the white people and to our own people as well. let us live in peace and observe the law; treat all men hon estly; be slow to anger, but quick to do our duty as men who wish to live In The Oaks (the Coney Island ot the West) Every, form of entertain ment and accommodation for tour ists.
