TAOS, New Mexico, Aug. 31. The Indians of Taos Puehlo, about 600 in number, form one American community which has been relatively little affected by fluctuations in the cost of living. These Indians are the communal
owners of a rich tract of valley farming land, upon which their pueblo stands, and of many square miles of the mountains adjoining it. Their ancestors were living here when the Spaniards came. The Spanish, Mexican and United States governments have successively confirmed them in the title to these lands.
The Indians meet the cost-oMiving
problem in a way which may be adopted by other farmers in this country if something is not done to make farm
ing more profitable as a commercial venture. While the cotton planter in Tems raises nothing but cotton, sells
it for less than it cost to produce, and faces bankruptcy and want, the Pueblo Indian raises almost everything he nPAiis spIIs little and buys little. His
lands produce wheat, corn, beans, pota
toes ,all sorts of melons, and fresh veeetables and a little fruit. On his
mountain range he raises cattle en
ough to keep him in brief. In the fine trout stream that flows down the Pueblo Canyon he can catch all the fish he wants all summer. He grinds
his own meal, dries fruits and veget
ables, and jerks meat for winter consumption. If shoes are high he makes
his own mocasins, and the rest of his clothing is not elaborate. He makes his own pottery. He Luilds his own house and keens it in repair. There
is little he mu6t buy except sugar, coffee, lard, and a few things in the way of clothing and utensils. Examinations of conscripts showed that a large percentage of the Mexicans in New Mexico are undernourished. It showed the same thing with regard to poor people all over the
United States. The Indian is general
ly a poor man, in that he has little
money and few possessions, but he is almost never undernourished. He
looks well-fed, and he has the physical
stamina and prowess of which civiliza
tion is robbing the rest of us. In the foot races which take place at his fiestas he shows great wind and speed. He can do as hard a day's work as any man on earth. The Indians have only a few acres of land per capita, but they have enough sense to make that land nourish them, instead of trying to make money, and thereby nourishing the jobbers, wholesalers, retailers, and all the rest of the commercial army. A Spartan Bather. The Indian preserves another virtue which civilized man often loses when he is poor, and that is cleanliness. There is nothing sordid or dirty about
the way the Indian lives. Every morn
ing, winter and summer, he bathes in the clear stream which runs past his door. He will not bathe in warm water, not even in a natural warm spring. But he will chop a hole in the
ice in January and bathe himself and
his papoose in ice water. The inside of his house, if he is a poor Indian, is sparsely furnished, but it is scrupulously clean. Walls and ceiling are covered with a special whitewash that the Indian himself makes, and it gives the plastered abode the appearance of polished ivory. In a corner is a little fireplace. Along one side of the wall the bedding is rolled up and covered with a bright blanket to make a sort of divan. The
effect is one of cleanliness, simplicity
ana a pleasing harmony of colors
borne of the Indians, who have made money by working for white men or
by trading in cattle and horses, have furnished their houses with chairs and iron bedsteads and sewing machines. A young man from the East was introduced to an Indian of about his own 150 in attendance at the Christian
Sunday school and an offering of over five dollars besides the flower offering was presented.
age. The Indian shook hands with him, and invited him to visit the pueblo on the next day. As they drove out the Indian said: "You are my brother. As soon as I shook hands with you, I knew that you
were my brother.
He led the white man into his house
and bade him be seated. .
Entertained by an Indian. "This is your house," he said. Later he asked the white man if ha
would like to hear some Indian music, and getting an affirmative reply, he
sang a native song of his own composi
tion. He was an ideal host, courteous
and sincere. He did not apologize nor
bluff, nor indulge in elaborate and. mendacious protestations which make up such a large part of our own com
pany manners.
The Indian is a moral man and he perceives the fact that the real foundation of all ethics is honesty. He believes In keeping his word. What an Indian says he will do, he does, even though the matter is of no importance. An Indian was visiting a friend in town when he suddenly noticed that his horse had strayed away. He went after it, saying, "I'll be back." He came back about five hours later, in the middle of the night, and waked his host. His only purpose in coming was to keep his promise. Of course not all Indians are so quixotic, nor so honest. There are crafty Indians and weak Indians, just as there are weak and crafty men among all other races. The point is
that absolute honesty is a real moral ideal to these people, while among us it is only a nominal ideal, falsehood and fraud being indispensable" parts of both our social and our business system. The Indian Is also a sincerely religious man. He has long had a religion of his own, which sees and worships the divine will in all the phenomena of nature. When the Span
iards came along they baptized him a Christian and built a Catholic church in each of his villages. Ever since then the Indian has had two religions. He still holds his pagan dances and ceremonies, just as he always did, and he goes to the Christian church also, though he is not a regular attendant of mass. "There is only one God," he says. In church, in the woods, with his prayer sticks before him, in his underground chapel, he is communing with the same Great Spirit. To him this great spirit is real and near. God is just as perceptible a personality to him as his wife. He is incapable of doubt. Every day he sees the hand of God in a hundred natural happenings. His God is a God of love. The Pueblos have never been warlike In
dians and they fight little among themselves. They honestly believe and practice the primitive Christian gospel that strife is futile. "We pray for everything on earth, for every living thing," a councillor of the tribe said. "We pray even for a stray dog that comes to the pueblo." There is never any suspicion of cant or hypocrisy about an Indian's religion. His sincerity is child-like and obvious. Such are the Pueblos, the only Indians which civilization has not greatly changed, at their best There are Indian scoundrels and loafers, just as there are white ones. But the Pueblo Indian at his best is a man worthy of any one's respect. He is a clean and honest man, and a man of principle. He is kindly, good-humored and toler
ant. He knows how to enjoy life. He has faith without bigotry. He makes one reflect that if dignified and happy human life is the object of our labors, than our civilization is a questionable success. The poor Indian gets along remarkably well without it.
