If ''AIethodist Jim Davis" had not
been disappointed in that Indian agency

named him, or if the government had
paid the expenses OF his trip to the

4 NEW country is usually scant in its
money supply because the people who
90 to new country are not often rich.
Rich men cOngregate in the old and
established centers of fashion and
luxury where their wealth can make
large show. People who are striving
to better their condition financially,
are pioneers. That is why the West
IS so greatly in need OF money.

SENATOR PUGH of Alabama is not a
Cleveland man. He is against Grover
because niue-tenths Of the Alabamians
are for free coinage of silver and Gro
Yer is not, He is against him for
ignoring the infamous force bill as an
issue. This latter circumstance coupled
with an expression in his Buffalo speech
some little time ago in which he spoke
of the time when the government was
assailed by rebellious hands proves
that, Grover is not an ardent adm.rer
of Dixie. Cannot the latter find a lover
more gallant?

THE STATUS OF THE PUEBLOS.
Timely Talk With Capt. j. G. Hill OF
the Indian Offics-Sentiment of
New Mexicu's Citizens.

Capt. j. G. Hill, chief of the Indian di-
vision Of the secretary's Office, interior de-
partment, ls in the city on business mis-
sion. He is on visit to the several Indian
schools of the southwest and is express
ly commissioned to visit the Pueblo In
dian reservations, while at the same time
testing the sentiment of public opinion in
New Mexico respecting the status of the
Pueblos as citizens OF the United States,
subject to all the requirements and bene-
fits of full ,fedged American free-holders.
The secretary of the interior holds that the
pueblos are and have ever been citizens
and not wards, as they have been treated
by the United States government ever
since the acquisition of New Mexico.
They were recognized as citizens by Gen.
Kearney in New Mexico's code, formulat-
ed in 1916, and when the supreme court
decided the case OF the Pueblo of Taos vs..
Antonio Joseph it held, while not pass
ing directly upon the question of citizen
ship, that the pueblos had the same
remedy at law that any other citizen has,
thereby deciding in effect that they are
citizens. Capt. Hill himself is also an
ardent advocate of citizenship for these
people.
He was clerk of the I'd district court years
ago, and ten years since he empannelled
iuries wherein the Pneblos served very
acceptably. The Indian commissioner
Gen. Morgan, has recently issued set Of
rules under which the Indian children Of
all nomadic tribes are required by the
government to attend school, but these
requirements, according to the decision
by the assistant attorney general of the
interior department, DO not apply to the
Pueblos, and this fact is printed in foot
note at the bottom othe OF fficial copies OF
these rules distributed throughout the
country.
While holding firmly to his opinion in
this matter Captain Hill thinks it will yet
be long time before the status of the
Pueblos can be finally settled satisfactor
lily, as there are many complications sur
rounding the question. Here he finds
public sentiment divided. Many citizens
hold that it would be most unfortunate tt
have the care and education OF thes'
Pueblos thrown upon the state.
The tax PAYERS Of New Mexico have
great task before them for years to COM
IN educating their own people to becom
good and useful citizens, and publi
sentiment is not IN favor of adding t.
this burden by having the government
shift responsibility for the Pueblos-no
] for great many years at least, especial
y IN view of the fact that the govern
| nant hoo hold them 90 Warda for q prnq
many years, and has, virtually, educated
: them to believe that they are in fact
wards OF the nation.
Capt. Hill will further investigate tn
subject as he travels through the south
west. He leaves tonight for Albuquer
que, whence he proceeds to the San Car
los agency and then retraces his steps
visiting the Indian training school a
Lawrence, Kas., returning to Washington
about Christmas.
