SECRETARY SMITHS REPORT.
1,102,935 Pensioners on the Rolls 800
 GOO, ,OOO Acres of Land Left.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-The report of Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith elaborately reviews the varied work of the interior department It begins with the Indian service and calls attention to the strict enforcement which has been given to civil service reform. both as to those places covered by the classified ser vice and those to which the rules of this service do not apply. It dwells upon the necessity of eliminating politics from the management of Indian affairs and of conducting each reservation upon strict ly business principles.
 The report estimates the amount of public land undisposed of to be about 600, ,000, 900 acres at the close of the fiscal year. and shows that the total receipts during the year from public lands amounted to over S2,000, 900.
 The review of the pension office shows the aggregate of the pension roll at the close of the year to be 1,102,9S5. Referr- ing to the number of pending cases the sta atement is made that the greater part of these are old cases, lacking some qual- ity of proof, which the law requires
 One of the interesting features of the report is the discussion of the relations between the government and the bond aided roads and of the possibility of col lecting the amount due the government from these roads. The report urges that two things are to be considered:
 1. The collection of the debt due the government.
 g. The creation of great through line from the Missouri to the Pacific, which was the original intention of the gov ernment leading to the issue of subsidy bonds.
 He states that the government is al- ready out s117 7,4S6.000 upon these roads and that the first mortgage bonds only amount to $64,61S,000; that the property is worth vastly more than the first mort gage bonds and that the government in this can be protected if necessary by taking up these bonds. All these bonds are now maturing and draw 6 per cent and Secretary Smith believes they could easily be replaced with a 3 per cent bond if the government guaranteed them, The net earnings of each one of the lines dur ing the past ten years have made an av- craze of nearly per cent on the sum for the first mortgage bonds and of the gov ernment subsidy bonds
