WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Secr etary of
the Interior Smith, In his annual re-
port, reviews with thoroughness the
work of all the branches of the depart
ment during the past year. He COM
ments on the utter inadequacy of leg
islation thus far enacted to provide
for the legitimate procurement of
public timber to supply actual neces-
sites of the people dependent upon it,
to promote settlement aud to develop
the natural resources of the public
lands
Legislation providing for wise and
comprehensive forestry system is rec
commended.
Mr. Smith discusses at length the
opening of the Cherokee outlet. He
says the harlships incurred by appli-
cants were an unavoidable result
when so large a crowd, far more than
the land could support, was prep pared
to rush madly upon it. No care of the
department could have lessened the
intense heat and prevented the sitting
dust.
The scarcity of water was due to
extended drouth, which had dried up
many of the usual sources of water
supply, and when over 10000 persons
gathered in the neighborhood of a
single booth it was impossible to place
all the booths at locations suited for
entry, and also to find a sufficie mt
water supply. 1t is believed, aside
from these hardships, the plan adopted
was carried out to successful con-
0l hof 70 n
large extent, the wrongful occupancy
of land by people who were not en-
titled to settle thereon, which marked
the first opening of Oklahoma.
Referring to the Cherokee Indian
allotments, the secretary states he
sought unsuccessfully to dissuade
those representing the Indians from
seeking to select townsites for specu
lative purposes In order to defeat
the plans of the Indian spectators,
he approved the allotments made, but
fixed townsites in such way as to
thwart their schemes.
The secretary recommends the pass
age of laws to protect the people now
settled in these towns from this dis
elimination. He also recommends as
a substitute for the present system of
settlement the adoption 10y congress
of some plan which, by auction, lot
terry or otherwise, may determine in
advance the ownership of each partic-
ular section.
The work of the Indian bureau shows
that they are steadily advancing in
| civilization. 1t is mistake, he says,
to suppose their numbers are rapidly
| decreasing. On the contrary, tribal
wars and wars with the whites having
ceased, they are increasing and there
are now over 250,OO0. Much good is
| being accomplished by allotments in
severalty and the schools
