The Indian appropriation bill
has passed the senate and will go
into conference next week for final
agreement of the two houses.
The amendments added to the
bill by the senate make it of spec
ial importance to Indian Territory
people. 1t carries amendments
providing for the reorganization
of the Dawes commissions; revis-
ion of the tribal rolls; allowing
rejected citizenship claimants to
appeal to the Court of Appeals OF
the Territory and thence to the
Supreme Court of the United
States, and authorizing suits in
the Court of Claims against the
Creek nation by the holders OF
warrants, payment of which was
refused by the secretary of the in
terror.
The house Indian affairs com
mittee considered and acted on
these amendments at its Thurs
days meeting. They voted to
concur in the Free Homes" +"
amendment of the senate, and
added to the bill a committee
amendment opening up the CO.
manche, Kiowa and Apache reser-
vations. This amendment is the
bill reported by the committee last
week. To attach it to the apprO-
priation bill is only a short way to
secure its passage.
In the other senate amendments
the house voted to formally non
concur, but the committee, it Is
understood, are in favor of ac-
cepting the senate amendment pro
viding for revision Of the tribal
rolls, by the Dawes commission.
The formal concurrence was voted
that the bill, with the amendments,
might be taken from the hands OF
the regular committee and be
placed in the hands of the confer
ence committee.
The conferees on the part of the
house will likely be Messrs. Sher-
man, Curtis and Little. 1t Is not
certain who will represent the SEN
ate on the committee.
1t will be seen that when the In
dian appropriation bill becomes q
law, it will carry legislation Oh
two very important questions
tribal rolls and citizenship appeals
Xxx
The house Indian affairs com
mittee has held two meetings this
week for the consideration of the
Curtis bill. 1t is now completed
with the exception of the Cherokee
feature of the tOwnSite clause and
the section relating to the claim OF
the Delawares. 1t was expected
that these features would be set
tied at the session of today, but on
account of the absence of Mr..
Benton, who was expected to make
some motions in regard to them
they were passed over and will be
completed Monday
The main question to be consid-
cred at Mondays meeting of the
committee is as to whether or not
the titles of those holding lots
under the Cherokee townsite law
will be confirmed At the last
meeting Of the committee Mr.. Ben
ton offered an amendment so pro-
viding. Mr.. Curtis opposed it. 1t
is likely that those holding under
this law will be given the right to
purchase the lots on which they
own improvements, and be credit
ed with the amount they have act
nally paid into the Cherokee treas.
Gry for such lots.
An amendment was adopted al
tOday's meeting providing that
royalties on coal and other miner,
ais shall be collected for nine
months after the passage of the
act.

conference committee will agree on
provision allowing these claim
ants the right to appeal to the
Court of Appeals at st. Louis. 1t
has never been intended that they
should be allowed to appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United
States. That amendment was
adopted to avoid debate, with the
understanding that the conference
committee would modify it."
A careful summary of the situa-
ton at this time would indicate
that the Curtis bill is progressing
as surely and smoothly as its
friends could hope for, and that,
in some form, it will find its way
to the statute books.

The prospect for the early pas
sage of the Curtis bill through the
senate, when it has passed the
house, grows more certain. The
interview from Senator Pettigrew
in another part of this communica-
ton means much. Senator Jones
has addressed letter to a member
of the house committee, in which
he makes use of the following Ian
guage:
L understand that some one has
beeL making statements to MEM
bers of your Indian committee that
we in the senate intended to agree
to no Indian legislation except
what is in the Indian appropriation
bill. So far as 1 know or have
ever heard, this is wholly untrue.
There has been no such a thought
inmy mind. If such stories have
been told, will you say this for me

WONDERS OF HUDSON BAY
Full of Fish, Whales, Walruses and
Fur-Bearing Seals

| Hudson's bay, the Mediterranean of
Canada, the most striking geographical
| feature of North America. was the sub
ject of a lecture and debate at the meet
ing of the McGill Science Graduates So
ciety Friday evening. 1t was a large
subject. Hudson's bay is half as large
as the Mediterranean sea--it drains a
vast territory, 5000 900 square miles in
area-vast rivers flow into it from the
south east and west; flowing from
places as distant as the plains of Mime
sofa and Dakota. In it's waters live un-
disturbed fish and ilbearing mammals,
along it's shores are fine harbors, in the
country surrounding it are rich mineral
deposits and fine farming lands But it
is a portion destitute Of human habita-
ton. White whales, walruses big as ele-
plants and fur-bearing seals disport
themselves undisturbed in the water. On
land there is wealth with no one to take
it away.
But all this is the Arctic regions" you
say. Not bit of it, says DR.. Bell, d-
rector Of the geological survey. Moose
bay is in q latitude further south than
London, and the northern portion of
Hudson's bay is at about the same lati-
tude as the north of Scotland. The eli
mate also compares very favorably with
that of the same latitude in other por-
tions of the globe. The bay does not
freeze across in winter-the winter con-
dltions there being similar to those of
the Gulf of st. Lawrence, and navigation
is possible during four or possibly five
months of the year. The Hudson's bay
route would bring the great northwest
as near to Europe as the city of Quebec.
1t offers perhaps the best route to the
Yukon district, and is the natural route
to the great oil fields of the northwest.
Gold is there-specimens of gold-bear-
ing quartz have been brought into the

HIS DREAM CAME TRUE
How a West Virginia Preacher Found
the Deed to His Church

That there are times when dream
may result in practical benefits is an
idea which Rev. Mr.. Himer of the
Methodist church at Glenville. w. Va,
is prepared to defend with proof in the
way of personal experience. When Mr..
Himer took charge of the church named
recently he failed to find the deed to the
property among the official papers be-
longing to the church. Application to
the county clerk was made, but he could
find no record of the deed. The matter
worried Mr.. Himer so much that he slept
badly during the early part of the night.

and dreamed the deed was in the pos

quiet kind of a way l have investigat-
ed somewhat into the matter and l find
that clothing of both women apd men
is regularly loaned or hired out, and then
washed and ironsd again before being re-
turned. The only way by which this
practice can be stopped is for those in
terested to occasionally visit the places
where their work is done and see for
themselves that their clothing, if not
ready to be delivered, Is in the hands Of
those who should have 1t instead of be-
ing on the bodies of those who hire or
borrow 1t. Probably l should say that
violations of this kind are less frequent
in the cases of residents than they are in
those of transients who stop at hotels
and boarding houses. s."-Washington
