The year of 1998, is passing
into history with many things of
importance and happenings that
has happened during the year.
The biggest thing thats going
down in the history books is
impeachment of William
Jefferson Clinton, the President
of the United States. The debate
is on impeachment or
Censureship of Clinton. His
behavior at this tip position as
commander of the U.S..
Many Republicans would
clearly like to hear Clinton admit
he lied to the grand jury, and at
the present time he has refused
Senate Judiciary Committee
may oe no reason to call witnesses or the likes or Monica
Lewinsky and other figures in the scandal that led to Clintons
impeachment

A trial could start as soon as the senate arranges for House
"Manages" to make a official presentation of the articles of
impeachment and sumomons Chief Justice William Dehanquist
: to preside over the trial. With so many questions and so much at
; stake, senators both parties appeared to go out of their way to
appear less partisan and combative than their House Counterparts
were in impeaching Clinton earlier this month.
: ; Former Spokesman, Mike McCurry said on "Meet the Press'
The blot of impeachment will always be with Clinton no matter
hat course the senate takes. Thai is going to be with him for
Cver-i
: V Some think the American people have said they want someplace
'where Bill Clinton can be held accountable where he can atone for
' What he has done.
Akhough some lawmaker, .have suggested a lr
as part ofthe censure, such as the cost oftheLewinski investigation.
What ever direction is taken it
way or the other. Lets look toward the next Century with ease.

During the year it was suggested that we investigate in other
options with our gaming situation here as the time draws near on
what everyone has agreed on in the past, and that was to have
another referendum on if we want gaming or not at the present
site, or gaming as a whole..
; Suggestions have risen to explore a more favorable location
wold be on trust land just out side of Hood River. That
;path so far has had some nasty bumps from radicals m that area
I opposing the gaming establishment.
i Cascade Locks just a short distance west of Hood River, has
1 had some positive reaction to a plan to build a gaming center there.
It is quite likely they have a good foresight on what could happen
I with something like this. It would boost the economy sky high and
; create all kinds of things for Thai small community.
As for us here in Warm Springs, this could be just what we've

Everyone looks at all the disadvantages it may cause, no one
looks at the brighter side. For a small community like Cascade
Locks, it could improve the whole area. They would never regret
it if we were able to build our gaming Center in that
community...AHH-NAH-CHI-TOON! ! !

check on its condition, I should un
derstand your inability to drive to the

Instead our children had to be
traumatized as we hauled our bat

If you have pets and children I
hope that in similar circumstances
this type of incident would be handled

Racism
Makes me mad
But more than that,
It makes me sad.
If you sink to their level
and begin
If you are all alone
You can never win.
We have lasted many years
and so many tears.
Many deaths
and many ragged breaths.
If we can last
A little longer
Natives will soon unite
And we'll be stronger
Keep your mind clear
And your spectrum wide
In your heart always have
Native Pridelll

To the editor,
I read your newspaper saying you
all needed some poetry. I got some
but I'll mail a few at a time ok. Can
you put this in the Spilyay Tymoo, I
want to see it. See if anybody will
write me. I could sure use some pen
pals now days. Thank you.
Yours Truly,

Loving A Convict
Loving a convict is not always gay
And loving me is a high price to pay
Its mostly loving with nothing to
hold
It's being young, yet feeling so old
It's having me whisper my love to
you
It's whispering back that you love
me too
Then comes our kiss, and promise to
wait
Knowing the parole board holds his
faith
It's real painful letting me go
While your dying inside from need
ing me so
Watching me leave with your eyes
filled with tears
Standing alone with hopes, dreams,
and fears
It's hard for you my dear
Try to be strong, don't drift away
Because this lonely convict
will need you more each day
With hopes that tomorrow, will bring
something my way
maybe a visit, or perhaps a letter
Or even a card, saying you do re
member me
Yes, it is hard, but please try to see
you made your choice to love this
Indian man
He is a convict, but a proud Indian
breed of man
He is a convict, stay by his side,
never leave
To love this man, one day will fully
pay
A Indian's love is strong and true
He will soon be free and be with you
With all the love in his Indian heart
When his time is over, your life will
start.
He'll Amend!!!
And happiness you shall see, my
Darling-my freedom, you & me
God Bless our Love.
Yours truly,
Ricky O Sampson
