It) It) THE OPENING OK THE KKSKH- i- iTinv I "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 elf-determlnatlon if you 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 Just received a carload of Rubcroid and Rcsisto Roofing and Building Paper, We are prepared to meet your requirements Baldwin Hardware The House of Quality Klamath Falls, Ore. - r,rHfc.i-i j.

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. sik NlX n r. . xi,T v. .. ?; y V FJrfT! . .
