The Philadelphia Inquirer calls atten-
tion to three important senate bills now
pending in tho house relating to Indian
affairs. These bills are;
Senator Coke's bill for tho allotment Of
lands in sevoralty to Indians on the vari-
Gus reservations.
Senator Dawes bill for tho division of
the Sioux reservation.
The bill for tho naturalization OF In
dians
The interest in Indian affairs has been
on the incroAse during reoont years. and
there has been growing feeling that
some effort should be made to reclaim
thcm from a state of barbarism and Gle.
vate them to civilization. To accomplish
this legislation is necessary. The Indian
is not citizen by birth, nor can he leave
his tribe and become one by naturaliza-
tion. He has no individual ownership
in the land allotted for his support, nor
can he acquire any. In addition to his
prodisposition for nomadic life he is
hodgod about by laws that discourage any
attempt on his part to leave 1t. without
opportunity to acquire property of his
own, ho has no stimulus to labor and
easily acquires habits Independence. The
house can we'll afford to give the bills re-
ferred to consideration, and 1t is to bo
egretted that so much time Of this con.
gross has run to waste whom important
subjects like the Indian question dc.
manded attention.

The legislatures Of several states are
taking prompt action in perfecting logls.
lation upon the manufacture and sale OF
dynamite. As was outlined in the inter-
Wow of Con. Butler, published in the
columns of The REPUBLICAN, few days
ago, the subject is properly matter of
state as well as national legislation. A
very sensible bill has been introduced in
the legislature Of New York prohibiting
the manufacture of dynamite or similar
explosives without license for the same
being first obtained from the court. The
export Of dynamite without notice to the
sheriff of the county, the commissioner of
police, or the custom house authorities
or its manufacture without license
is made misdemeauor, and is
punishable with fino and i'm
prisonment. Such legislation as this will
confne its open manufacture, sale and
transportation within legitimate chan
nels, and place the rantlng bloodthlrsty
dynamiter under suspicion and sur
veillance. 1t throws the burden Of proof
upon the guilty of showing innocence in
having the explosive in his possession.
This is something that the legislation
contemplated in the Edmunds bill cannot
reach, and IL would be we'll il all legisla-
lures now in session adopted stringent
laws regulating the manufacture and sale
of dynamite and kindred explosives,

An Un-American DeeIsIon.

The senate has seen At TO reject the

right of that body to do so. No ono can

far as tho canal treaty is concerned,
We arc bound to say that
in rejecting 1t the senate has flown in the
the face of tho plain sentiment Of the
nation. Scarcely prominent newspaper
of tho country has ever objected to it's
ratification. On the contrary, they have
almost universallyappr owed its provisions

sentiment of newspSperdom may be
very safely accepted AS an index
