And now:Ish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Another Man's Poison: Profit and Loss in White Clay� by Bill Kelly <www.dickshovel.com/wc.html> NOTE: ...from recent AP News - American Indian activists Russell Means, Dennis Banks and Clyde Bellecourt plan to attend a rally Saturday (June 26, 1999) at Pine Ridge to protest the investigation into the deaths of two men, according to the organizer. The bodies of Wilson Black Elk Jr., 40, and Ronald Hard Heart, 39, were found June 8 in a culvert about 1 1/2 miles south of Pine Ridge near the Nebraska border. They were reportedly last seen June 6. It could be the first week of any month of the year when paychecks and government support checks are cashed on the Ogallala Sioux reservation. A lot of that money makes its way to four little stores with licenses to sell beer. [Don Schwarting, liquor store owner] "The Ogallala Sioux people are fun loving, humorous, good-natured people. They enjoy getting together and having a good time or going places and having a good time. And this involves alcohol usually." Don Schwarting knows he runs one of the most controversial businesses in Nebraska. Public opinion doesn't much matter to him when his customers cast their votes with dollars. [Schwarting] "There's not anybody that's walked in here tonight that's made me the bad guy. Has there? No, not a one. It's not because they're customers or nothing, it's because they live here. But the guys that don't live here are making us look like the bad guys. They don't live here and they don't work here and don't want to." None of the customers at the Arrowhead Inn cared to share their opinion with us that night. At the same time rush hour begins in White Clay, Officer John of the Ogallala Sioux tribal police is coming on duty. [John Mousseau, Pine Ridge Police Dept.] "Very seldom do we come across an incident that isn't alcohol-related.
