A. i II opiiyay spea its Grateful for support and help Faces of Reservation wins top honors It was once said that Bush was concerned about the home less.. .the ones who don't have a summer home. Bush accused Dakakis of a total lack of mis understanding of our military and called the Nov. 8. election a referendum on military policy. DakakLscriticicd Bash for opposing increases in the minimum wage and for advocating a trade policy that he said seemed like a re-run of "Let's Make A Deal." To this date there hasn't been any real address made on any issue and on what steps they would take to solve the problem. Take the death penality and the abor tion issue, which both seem to sway away from as much as possible. When ever the qucs- tion arises they start to make their remarks on what the issue is all about but they never say what they would do about the situation, they always shift the question on the other guy, of what he is doing wrong about the whole thing, but they never say what they would do themselves. Bush said that he will fight to the end and if any of his staff are not doing what they should be doing in the campaign, they are history. Dukakis, on the other hand, does mingle with the main stream of the public and that's out on the streets with the working people asking questions and trying to give answers. It will be a very interesting race for the presidency. Well, we've had some doozies in the past and seem to survive, but to do that again and again is not the best for this country. Speaking of candidates, a tribe in Montana had a couple of War Bonnets for vice-presidential candidate Dan Quayle., The tribe asked Quayle to Come and visit the reservation and his reply jwas, "I don't have the time.'; Later on, that tribe received a call saying that Quayle wanted to use those War Bonnets at another gather ing. The Tribe's response was that if he didn't have time to visit the reservation they didn't have time to deliver the head dresses to Quayle. And again, they thought that those head dresses were appropriate for Quayle because they were fake; made out of turkey feathers, they were.
