INDIAN CITIZENSHIP QUESTION
; IS Ai PUZZLER ;F0R ;UNCtE SAM
TvTien is an Indian not an Indian and

That ia the perplexing question As
sistant Uunlted BUtes Attorney James
Cole has to solve every once In a while
when the Indians on the Klamath Fails
Indian reservation , taks fire-water. .
The latest case resulted In, the arrest
of David Alexander, of Klamath Falls.
. He k was taken into custody by Deputy
United States Marshal William Griffith
for selling whiskey to an Indian.
This in itself would not be a crime
were the Indlna a cltlsen but -because
the government -has not yet allotted land
to the Indians on the reservation, they
are not citisens snd therefore not-entitled
to revel In the glory of a morning
'eye-opener" nor ; the sleep-producing
tonic of a "night-cap."
This Is the law and that is why Alex
ander Is In custody. Had the particular
Indian to whom he sold whiskey owned
land he. could have gone to Alexander,
bought- all - the whiskey he ' could pay
for and drank ' himself : to sleep. Be
cause he la not possessed ot a section
of -public domain,-he has no right o
drink whiskey, nor has Alexander the
right to sen It to Mm.,-....
. It is claimed that Alexander did and
that the Indian drank his 1111 Indian
fill. Therefore the question of cltlien
shlpr whiskey-ship end the ship of state
became Involved. 'At the latest report
ths Indian wss stlli drunk, Alexsnder
was In cmttody and Mr. , Cole waa un
raveling, the mlxup. ' j

If in the list of minor grievances sub
mitted there are any that call for at
tention and consideration, I shall be
glad to have . yours and Mr. Carroll's
recommendation as to what you think
should be done In each case. If there
are any rulea in force which .may at
time work a- hardship upon our em
ployes, we should do our utmost to
remedy that. Ureat care should be ex-
ercised to - prevent under-chiefs and
others from unfair enforcement ot rules
and regulations and from uniust dis
crimination and unkind treatment of the
force. It Is the earnest desire of the
management that all our employes ahall
be treated with consideration and that
every reasonable and proper effort be
made to Insure their health and com
