The Sioux Agreement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l9-In transmitting
the Sioux agreement to the senate to-day,
the president says the agreement involves
departure from the terms of the general
allotment act in at least one particular
1t gives to each member of the tribe 16O
acres of land without regard to age or sex,
while the general law gives that amount
only to the heads of families. There are,
ne thinks, serious objections to the basis
adopted in the general law, especially in
its application to married women, but if
this basis Of agreement is accepted, it
would, ne believes, in some cases
where there are large fami-
lies Of MINOR children, in excessive
allotments, to a single family. Touching
the question of payment by the United
States Of annuites which were forfeited by
the act of 1853, the president thinks this
should not have been considered in con-
nection with negotiation for the cession Of
these lands, and says the forfeiture de-
clared by that act unjustly included the
annuities of certain Indians of these bands,
who were guilty of no fault. and VIII o rem

Senator Pierce ON Lotteries.


Washington Critic: 1.-THE lottery, did
you say-the Dakota lotterY-well now
really" said Senator Pierce, and he looked
at the Critic reporter in a mildly reproach-
full manner, "you ought to be gathering
news. The Dakota lottery is history"
"But, senator, the individual opinion Of
Dakota's representatives is not yet histori-
cal. The sentiment of some Of the Dakota
people was certainly represented by the
attitude of part of the legislature"
"A minority you have noticed, however,
and while speaking for myself 1 am un-
doubtedly representing very large ma
jOrity," continued the senator. "The moral
sense of the nation is against lotteries,
but it is not SO amazing that some people
IN North Dakota should have lost sight Of
the moral aspect of the case for the
moment when they see tickets for this
same company sold openly in the capital
of the nation and when newspapers of re-
spectability open their columns, year after
year, to puffs and advertisements OF the
company in violation of the statutes.'
II repeat also what have said, that it is
not improbable that number of our
legislators may have been influenced by
the example of the United States senate a
few months ago, when that body compelled
six members to take part in a grand prize
drawing under so called hallowed pre-
cedent established by the fathers. The
action of our legislature was overruled in
favor of this game of chance, and it may
have taken the proceeding as a precedent
to be followed in affairs of lesser moment"
And the North Dakota senator, after in
the Louisiana Lottery business, strolled
down the corridor, slid through the swing
ing doors and dropped into his chair in the
senate chamber.

Wants to Know the Facts,

EDITOR TRIBUNE: I notice in the
TRIBUNE of to-day statement authorized
by the governor, that looks on the surface
like denial of the rumors freely made
about the hotel lobby and in the public
press that the governor had charged that
he had been approached by Treasurer
Booker with an offer of $4,000 in cash to
sign the lottery bill. On reading it the
second time, 1 find little sugar-coating.
What is meant by "misapprehensio of the
facts?" What are the facts :? That IS what
the people would like to know. If certain
statements have been made in the
Pioneer Press and elsewhere, under
misapprehension of the facts"
why not let the facts be known? The gov
ernor's explanation is not very specific. It
has been rumored that the governor knew
about the lottery scheme two or three
months ago. The outside press is scoring
those who identified themselves with the
lottery scheme. The Pioneer Press puts it
mildly and says "persuaslon'' was used
on the press to keep it quiet. It is hoped
the investigating committee will 90 to the
bottom of this matter and let no guilty
man escape-newspaper men, member, or
state officer.
If persuasion" silenced the newspapers,
what influence induced high officials to
remain silent so long? FIT.

The Dempsey.-McCarthy Mill.


SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 1S.-Over 200 en-
thusiastic spectators assembled at the
gymnasium OF the California athletic clu b
tonight to witness the great battle of the
middleweights, Jack Dempsey and Billy
Mccarthy. Hiram Cook of this city was
appointed to referee the match. Jack Nc
Auliff and Denny Kelleher were behind
Dempsey and Jimmy Carroll and Paddy
German seconded Mccarthy. The condi-
tiOns of the contest We're that the men
should weigh under 156 pounds. When n
they appeared in the ring tonight, Nc
Carthy weighed 1917 and Dempsey l4715
pounds. Several sparring contests occupied
the early part of the evening, and it was
$50 when time was called. Both men were
received with rousing cheers.
First round-both men came to the center
of the ring quickly, Dempsey led with his
left and caught Mccarthy lightly on
the chin. Mccarthy watched closely for
an opening and led out several times. but
Dempsey lodged. The Australian seemed
inclined to force matters, but was able to
Second roundMDeempsey caught McCar-
thy saYagely in the face twice and then
gave him a terrific right handler on the
body. Mccarthy attempted to return it,
but Dempsey got away. Mccarthy landed
lightly on Dempsey's neck, and the round
closed with several points in the nonpar-
ellis favor.
Third round-McCarthy caught another
left handler on the chin, which Dempsey
followed up with good blow on the ribs
and repeated this moment later. The
Australian ducked we'll and saved himself
from fierce blow aimed at his neck. Just
as the round closed he struck Dempsey
hard in the wind and received hot one
on the forehead in return. Heavy blows
were given in the succeeding rounds.
In the tenth round Dempsey was ham,
mering away at McCarthy's wind and
brought out very audible grunt from him
several times. McCarthy's attacks were
wicked, but the nonpareil was too quick for
him, until near the end of the round, when
Mccarthy planted good left-hander just
above the stomach. Sharp fighting on
both sides was seen in the other rounds.
The men kept the fight up to the twenty
eighth round, when Mccarthy was knocked
out by Dempsey.

What Prohibition may do in Kansas.


In Geo. W. Curtis Washington letter of
the 10Th inst to the Chicago Daily News is
the following gossipy item:
l asked Senator Ingalls, yesterday
whether he felt any uncertainty as to his
reelection.
"Not SO far as my own party is con-
a majotity in the legislature 1 shall, no
doubt be returned; but we are good deal
broken up out our way from various
causes, and there is no telling what may
happen"
The trouble in Kansas seems to be di-
vision OF the republican party into several
factions. The anti prohibition element.
which is large and increasing, especially in
the cities and the larger towns, is spread
ing considerably among the country dis
trictS, where the farmers, in searching for
causes for low prices and poor crops and
hard times, are accepting the explanation
Of the anti-prohibition element that it is
The disaffected element, too, has secured
control Of the Farmers Alliance, which
charges the hard times to the high tariff
and holds the republican party responsible
for not reducing duties on food, products,
clothing, medicines, and other necessaries
OF life. Everybody who is out of sorts or
who has met with misfortune attributes
the troubles to the same cause, and, al
though revision of the tariff by the pres
ent congress might do some good, it cannot
improve the conditions that exist or allay
the discomfort, so that the next legislature
is likely to be nOngrel sort of body, d.
vided into several factions, without organ
ization. and representing all sorts of theo-
ries and policies. Thus the senatorship
will be free-for-all race with large num-
Der of candidates, few of whom will submit
to a caucus nomination.
The News is a prohibition, anti-protec-
tive tariff, no-Sunday-edition paper.

Dangerous to the Mfnoritv.

Sioux Falls Press: ''The investigating
committee at Bismarck has proof, anyway
that Mayor Newman of Fargo, who so
strenuously opposed the lottery bill. has
monthly fne-practically license fee
collected from keepers and inmates of
brothels,. at rate of 1926 for keepers and
So fol-. inmates. Can it be possible that
there is anywhere in all this section of
country where such policy prevails?
We'll, anyway, it seems that up in North
Dakota the investigation growing out of
the lottery deal is far more dangerous to
the enemies than the friends of the bill.
