Following the tribute, the com-
munity choir sang “God Bless

ingston Area Community Band.
In a moving display, Chief Os-
cala of the Alabama-Coushatta In-
dian Tribe lighted the first candle of
the candle light service. Members
of the Robert Rankin Chapter of
the Daughters of the American
Revolution then lighted their can-
dles off the chiefs, to distribute the
flame to everyone in the crowd.

end's Office is so mean spirited
toward Indian tribes.
“Additionally, many Texans do
not know that during the last legis-
lative session, Lt. Gov. Ratliff
would not even allow us to have a
vote in the Senate on our gaming
bill. He took this action despite the
fact that the bill had passed the
House of Representatives and had
been reported favorably out of the
Senate Committee on Criminal
Justice. Well, I was taught in
school that for the law to be justi-
fied, it mutt be a product of a fair
process and not the product of one
man's personal agenda."
Battlse concluded, ‘The gentle-'
men who control these actions by
the State of Texas would do well to
remember the words of another
Texan. In the twilight of his career
this Texan said to his Senate col-
leagues that they had to choose
between deceiving the Indians or
confirming to them the rights long
promised. This Texan's name was
Sam Houston.”
