INDIANS BECOMING
KEEN POLITICIANS
PIERRE, S. D., July 27—The
great question of whether the Amer
ican Indian will ever take his place
In politics and become an active fac
tor in local and state government is
being answered satisfactorily In
several parts of South Dakota. The
poor, whiskey-sotted RalnjJn-the
Face of earlier days is rapidly chang
ing into a keen and crafty politician.
Reports received in the past week
from Bennett and Mellette counties
indicate that the craftiness of the
Indian has been pitted successfully
against all of the whites and a score
or more of important county offices
are now held by Indians.' These of
ficeholders are Indians of intelli
gence and education. As a further
.indication of the trend of the times,
the secretary of state recently char
tered the “Indian Political Associa
tion” of White River, Mellette coun
ty. to conduct pol'f ical affairs in that
region on a solid basis. The or
ganisatlon is incorporated by Isaac
Bear Looks Behind, Edward Cast
away In the Forest, Benjamin Hun
gry* Junes Bear Thunder and Henry
Swift Eagle.
