Golden Words

Mankatc. Mtaa-, Herald.
Why should not men who are associated
together In business study and practice the
law of kind words toward each other?
Why should not the master speak kindly to
his servant? Why should not those who
differ In opinion address each other by
the use OF respectful and kindly words2
Why should not those who oppose moral
evils temper their language with the Law OF
kindness in the form Of utterance? Why
should not the minister of the gospel, the
doctor and the nurse In the sickroom, the
buyer and seller, the banker and the mer-
chant, the governor and the gov

warden of q prison, and, indeed. every
man and every woman, on all occasions,

INDIAN EDUCATION.
Material Changes in the System
of Schools.
IDEAS or THE COMMISSIONERS.
A Forecast or the Forthcoming Report
Indicates That Future schools VIII
BE BuiIt ON Reservations.

W.sHrxsTox CrrY, Dec. sit is be-
Iiered that the report OF the Sioux commits
sion, which will be ont in few days, will
recommend important changes ia the sys-
TEN Of education OF che Indians. The IN
dustrial training schools for Indians In the
Eastern states and elsewhere away from
the reservations may not altogether
like what the Sioux commission viii
have 70 say Of education IN rs
report, according to the summary
Of ID made pubic. Probably they con-
slider. 10 begin with, that the members of
that commission have wandered out OF
their province in discussing the subject,
inasmnch as they were appointed 70 pur-
chase sioux lands. but as fact 1t turned
out that good deal Of the debate on this
purchase turned on the obligations OF the
government to provide schools.
The commissioners are understood to
hold that the reservations are the proper
sites for educational instruction and the
money now expended on Carlisle and
other famous Eastern schools would be
productive OF good if these institutions
were established near the tribes.
The eight schools at Carlisle, Pa.
Lawrence. Kan, Genoa. Neb., Chill
locco, Ind. Ter. Chemawa, Or, Hsmp-
ton, Va, Philadelphia and at
Flat Head reservation. in Montana, have a
capacity for little more than 1900 pupils.
The annual cost TO the government is
about 1926 ,Oo0 The Indians who have
been here ask that the schools be built on
the reservations, saying that the expense
OF taking their children TO school away
from the reserva ton Is so great that the
aggregate sum would soon build houses
on their reservations.
The report Of the commission discusses
the situation as regards the Indians in
Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana. Wash
ington. Oregon. California and the Indian
reservations. In this connection the words
of Secretary Noble TO the chiefs may be
significant. After listening to requests tor
more schools he said:
have been glad to hear so much spoken In
regard TO schools. ! am glad ycu have said as
much about schools as about retions and clothes.
/ say % you that there shall be no less rations
than heretofore, bat there shall be more schools
While it is likely that no steps will be
taken TO cripple any OF the industrial
schools now IN operation. il is likely that
in.any increased outlay for Indian educa-
cation, the reservations win have the pref
erence.

A RECONSTRUCTED navy.
The Future Prospect Sum
married. by the Committee,
THE COSTLY EXPERIENCES
Being Utilized by our Department,
A Bill is Reported Which win
Render This Government In,
dependent of the World,

WASHINGTON, D, O., Jan, 24,-Ip It's
report upon the naval appropriation bill
the House Committee on Naval Affairs
summarizes the present condition and
future prospects Of the navy Of this
country, The report says; With regard
to a new navy, Congress seems to have
settled upon a policy Of appropriatlng
toward It's construction about $4,000, 900
per annum, Your committee believe
that this will build up a navy rs fast as
prudence dictates. Our Navy Depart,
meut and our ship-builders are utilizing,
as far as may be, by every means in
their power, the knowledge acquired
from the costly experience Of other ma
tons, but they must acquire experience
OF their own. Too great haste on the
part OF the Government would ineVita-
bly, result in confusion and waste, and
most probably In combination instead OF
competition among ship.builder, Be-
sides 1t would be an easy matter In this
country TO build ships more rapidly
than We could supply them with arma-
ment OF domestic manufacture. Even
In England, with all their facilities,
there is loud complaint that the Gov.
ernment aud all their contractors are
unable to supply guns as they are want.
cd. The manufacture Of modern high
power gun Is not only an expensive but
a slow and tedious process.
The committee says that the appro.
priation Of S825,000 for extending the
gun plant at the Washington navy yard,
which has proved to be insufficient, will,
taken In connection with other items,
be all that Is necessary to put three differ.
ent navy yards In condition to build the
hulls OF the finest modern vessels, armor-
ed and unarmored, as well as for the
complete equipment Of a great plant for
the assembly OF heavy ordnance.
Satisfactory progress Is being made by
the private contractors for supplying
heavy gun and armor plates ior rapid
fire machine guns, and, says the COM
mittee, 1t will be seen that Congress,
by the passage OF the bill we report, will
have taken the last step necessary to
render the Government absolutely indie.
pendent Of the world In the matter OF
building and equipping navy. 1t has
been the constant aim Of the committee
and Of the department to provide for
ships the best OF their class and guns
equal to any in the world.

Capt. Slack traced outrages in Ireland to
the League and TO the inaamed language
OF Irish members OF the House Of Com
mons, priests and other leaders. The
League practically assumed the govern
ment Of the country and encouraged
outrages. There was no abnormal dis.
tress In his district, He thought out
RACES would not have occurred had they
not been instigated by the League. On
ross.examination Capt. Slack says that
as rule the Irish leaders did not do:
nounce outrages, but there might have
been exceptions,

searched the house Of Mary 0'Connor,
the Secretary Of the Ladies' Land League
