POWELL'S SCHEME,
Favorable Outlook In the House TO,
Agreement with the Senate.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-The opinion is
growing that the house will accept the
senate amendment to the sundry civil
bill, repeating the act of 1855 concerning
the irrigation and segregation of the arid
lands. 1t is said that the house commit
tee on appropriations has received new
light on the subject since they passed up
on the matter originally and will not con-
tend long for the retention of the appro-
priation of $750,000, as made in the bill
when first reported for continuing this
work.
Protests against continuance of the
law have been pouring in from all sections
OF the west on the senate since the dis
cussion began there, and it is said that the
house has also felt the popular feeling on
this subject and will not make any great
effort to saddle system upon people to
which they are so evidently strongly op-

of those that are given to the world
not one in ten satisfies in small

ing question of some importance. The
land was lying very close to Tacoma, and
to hold 1t on the reservation much longer
might check the growth of the city. The land
lying close 10 Commencement bay would be

uvation IN raising staff to feed Tacoma.
his land IS very fertile, and might be put
y better uses than at present According
~ he thinks that in justice to Tacoma, and
10 the development of the rest of the state,
the time will soon come when it may
be necessary to dispose of the land.
When asked under what conditions the
disposal would be made, General Whittle-
sew said the problem was a delicate one.
We're the Indians at once given permission
TO sell the land and keep the
money they would suffer thereby.
Tor they were not really able to care
for improperly. Whites would marry into
their families for purely mercenary pur-
poses,i and the indians would soon have
neither land nor money. The general said
his individual and personal opinion was
that 1t would best for the government
to buy the land at good price, and sell
1t as might seem advisable. The money
belonging to the Indians should be held
until they were able to take care of it.
They might be given an allowance from it,
or the income. But at present many of
them must for their own sakes be treated
as minors are.
In regard to manual training for the In
dams here, General Whittlesay said he was
hearty believer in it and should use all
his influence to extend manual and me-
chanicai training in the schools. Teaching
the brain and the hand at the same time
was the only true way.
The general said, in closing his talk,
that though he had been over nearly The
whole country, this was his first visit
TO Washington. He believed the state had
every promise of great future. The eyes
OF the country were now turned toward it.

YOUR VIOLIN.

What matters where?

And thrills me as it plays
The tunes of other days
The days that were.
Then let your magic bow
Glide lightly to and fro
close my eyes, and so,
In vast content,
kiss my hand to you,
And to the tunes we knew
OF old, as well - 10
Your instrument.
Poured out of some dim dream
OF lulling sounds that seem
Like ripples OF stream
Twanged lightly by
The slender, tender hands
OF weeping willow wands
That droop where cleaning sands
And pebbles lie.
A melody that swoons
In all the truant tunes
Long. lazy afternoons
Lure from the breeze,
When woodland boughs are stirred.
And moaning doves are heard,
And laughter afterward
Beneath the trees.
Through all the cborusing
j hear on leaves of spring
= The drip and pattering a.
OF April skies, 100
With echoes faint and sweet
As baby angel feet
Might make along street
In Paradise.
