to for the Chippewa Indians of
Minnesota. The result of their
work is far reaching and the In
dians at home are receiving the
benefits. THE TOMAHAWK will
from week to week make known
to the Chippewa Indians the
changes in the policy of the Indian
Office being accomplished by the
delegation.
James I. Coffey is keeping up
his dirty work. He is the recog
nized stool-pigeon of the Indian
Office. He is now in Minnesota
securing letters from every Indian
he can mislead and deceive and
causing them to be sent to Wash
ington to try and prevent the dele
gation from accomplishing results
for the Chippewa Indians. He is
stirring up all the trouble he can.
It is up to the Chippewas of Min
nesota to stand by the delegation
now at Washington, for in doing
so men of the type of Coffey can
not continue to hamper and em-was
barass the good work being accom
plished by the representatives of
tbe General Council.

Intelligence has been received
here to the effect that Hon. D. S.
Hall, formerly Chippewa Com
missioner, who is well and favor
ably known among the White
Earth people, is confined at the
St. Barnabas Hospital, Minneap
olis. The intelligence states' that
"Mr. Hall is in the hospital re
covering from a severe and deli
cate operation for bowel trouble
the patient is very weak though
the doctors say he is gaining slow-
ly." The people of the reserva
tion generally cherish the highest
regards for Mr. Hall^ both as an
honest and faithful friend and one
of the fairest and squares* officials
that ever transacted business for
the Chippewas of Minnesota.
Once in awhile an Indian official is
found, one with his heart hi the
right place and who does not insist
that the "injun" iake the buzzard
always, and Nitche Hall was that
kind of an official.
