OSAUES IN DEBT.
The Richest Tribe of IndIsns VIII Go Into
Baakruptcy.

Advices from the Usage Indian
country are that the supposed In
dian bankruptcy cases have caused
not little excitement among the
merchants and Indian traders of
the reservation. 1t is said the 300
families of fullblood Usage Indians
owe on an average $3.50, 900, or
about $500 to the family. Some
of them owe $4,000. The condi-
ton of the Osages. it is said, was
brought about by extravagant buy
ing and the paying of exorbitant
prices to the Indian traders for
goods. Many of the Indians have
built fine residences on their lands,
but still live in their teepees, and
their good houses in many in
stances are vacant. 1t is reported
that the Indian traders, in con-
junction with the Indian agent.
are making a strenuous effort to
keep lawyers from the reservation.
In all, it is said that 160 of these
fullbloods will go into bankruptcy.

commissioner of Indian affairs re-
commencing certain changes in man
agement of schools in the Indian
Territory, particularly in the Creek
and Cherokee nations, in which /
fully concur.
"It is absolutely necessary that all
schools in the territory be placed
under the supervision of the depart
ment. The various nations are lib
eral in making appropriations for
education, but funds SO appropriated
have not always been properly or
judiciously expended. There is also
an entire absence of industrial train
ing at any school, both boys and
girls being instructed in school room
work and music"
The Cherokee oil leases, about
which so much has been published,
and which has resulted in such a
bitter fight between representatives
of the Delaware Indians on the one
hand and leading members of the
Cherokee nation and capitalists in
Kansas City, Chicago and st. Louis
on the other, have again been re-
turned to the Indian office, with a
recommendation from Special Agent
Wright of Indian Territory, that
they be rejected. This is the fifth
time these leases have been received
at the department and returned to
the territory for further examination
by the special agent. 1t is highly
probable that they will again be re-
jected, this time resulting in a re-
fusal on the part of Secretary Hitch
cock to consider them further, in
which event the whole question will
be sent to congress for final disposi-
ton.
The removal of two Indian agents
in Oklahoma Territory will probably
occur within the next week. One is
Major Woodson of the Kiowas, Com
anches and Apaches and the other is
Pollock, agent of the Usage Indians.
Charges have been preferred against
both of the agents, and already the
Indian office has recommended the
removal of the former, while final

pends largely upon the investigation
of the question of cattle trespass in

ready, however, sufficient evidence
has been gathered to implicate

that he will be promptly removed as

report is based upon a de-
landed down by Assistant At
t, General Vandevanter for the
I or Department, who passed

general of Oklahoma Terri
Harper s. Cunningham, for the
tion of moneys due the. terri
rom the leasing of school lands
Thich he receives an annual
=, is illegal, and can not be

will be remembered that more
year ago Gov. Barnes entered
contract with the attorney
aral for the collection of all the
leys due to the territory from the
7 tai of the school lands. The con-
I ct called for certain percentage,
y ich would have netted the attor-
| general, in addition to his annual
8 larry, about $4,000 or $4,000 per
J ar.
Because of this contract the terri
rial legislature last winter refused
confirm the appointment of Mr..
1nningham, and instituted search
z investigation of the administra-
son of Gov. Barnes, resulting in the
adoption of resolutions censuring
he governor in the strongest terms.
Judge Vandevanter also holds that
the loaning of territorial moneys to
private banks in the territory by
Treasurer Thompson, presumably
with the knowledge and consent OF
Gov. Barnes, was not only illegal
but lays the treasurer and the gov
enor liable to criminal indictment.
The charges preferred against Gov
Barnes to the effect that he has been
of the territorial patronage
to the highest bidder are not found
to be sustained by the proof submit
ted, although in some instances the
charges together with the proof have
a bad appearance and have satisfied
Sec rotary Hitchcock that Governor
Barnes is not the proper man to be
retained in office.
The report will be submitted to the
president, together with all the
papers within day or two and it is
scarcely probable that President Nc
Kinley will refuse to act upon the
recommendation of the Oklahoma
petitions from leading
citizens of the territory and a request
from the Secretary of the Interior.

The Negative Cuban Policy.

of Washington and thence through the
Western Republican press. which is not
published near enough to the throne to
be kept muzzled that Governor-General
Brooke has discovered that what he needs
TO properly run things in Cuba is
policy" A person indefinitely described
as major general of volunteers who
served with General Brooke last winter
told Secretary Alger few days ago that
General Brooke has done everything in
his power to administer the affairs of the
island for the benefit of his country and
the Cubans, but that he is Handicapped by
the lack of policy" General Brooke was
sent to Havana, so it is being explained,
empowered only to say, when he took pos
session in the name Of the United States.
that the laws of the day before still ap-
piled. This was a diplomatic way Of say
ing to the Cubans that they would remain
under Spanish law-the law they despised
and had been fighting against for four
years-enforced by officers of the United
States Army.
After the main objects of making serfs

code of Spanish laws was to shut out from

fed this feature, but 1t has not relieved
any OF the prohibitive operations of the
code against Americans. Reports from
Cuba indicate that English capital is being

Hunanc Warfare.

The New York Tribune" rushes to the
defence of the British and American dele
gates to the Peace Conference. who, alone
of the representatives, of civilized coun-
tries, recently defended the use of dunn
dunn and explosive bullets in warfare. The
Tribune says:
We are not arguing for poisoned projectiles
or explosive bullets or anything Of that sort.
The purpose of a bullet is to stop the progress
of the man whom 1t strikes and disable him for
further fighting. And frankly believe that.
IN the long run. the bullet that performs that
purpose Will be found TO be actually more humane
than the one that does not. We believe it is
better for man TO be stopped in his tracks by
a single bullet than to wait until he is riddled
by dozen bullets. Men making a charge now
know the chances are ten to one that they will
not he hit at all, and ten to that, If they
are hit, they will not be killed disabled.
But suppose they knew the chances were just
the other way, ten to one that they would be
hit and, in that case, ten to one. or a hundred
to one, that they would be killed or disabled.
Why, then, with potentialties dreadful lurk-
ing in every rife barrel, army would dare to
march against another, and no nation would dare
to go to war. For not even the most ferocious
war lord would rush to destruction or be
such fool as TO send armies TO sure destruction.
II this line of argument be justifiable.
and if it is true, as the Tribune seems
TO believe that the more terrible and in
human hostilities are rendered. the less
likely nations will be to engage in them,
we fail to see any reason why anything
that can be said in favor Of the explosive
bullet, for example, might not quite as
properly be urged in support OF other
equally effcacious means of destruction.
but which are generally tabu in war be-
tween enlightened powers. If the dunn
dunn is entitled to praise, because of its
terrors, why, on the same ground, is 1t
not only proper but meritorious to poison
the water of q district threatened with
invasion, or to introduce material infected
with pestilence into the camp of an enemy? ?
Either of these devices would tend to
spread panic in the breasts OF a foe and
make him afraid 10 enter the territory of
a people known to resort to them as de-
fensive measures.
The question is, where to draw the line.
We do not butcher the wounded on a
battlefield any more, or torture prisoners
TO death. But these practices might act
as useful deterrents from war, exactly
as the dum-dum is alleged to. On the
whole, we are unable to perceive any
merit in the position taken by our mill
tary Representatives at The Hague. which
we can only regard as retrogressive ana
obnoxious to the decent sentiment of the
American people.

Decndence of the Bootinck.

tFrom the Atlanta Constituti0u.)
One OF our formerly foremost institutions
which appears Ito quote Mr.. ClevelandD TO have
sunk into .'innocuous desuetude.'' is the boot
jack. We hear little of it nowadays, and its
decay will be rpourned by those who value it
for the haIlowCd reeollections which it holds.
No norcl or short story has been complete
without some reference to this awkward feature
of the toilet. 1t has furnished unlimited material
for hack writers, and il has supplied many a rest
less, would-be sleeper with ammunition destruc-
tive TO the back yard feline Joint debate. In
times gone by It was indispensable piece OF
family furniture. and unlimited supplies kept
on hand.
There must be a reason for this as well as
for all other apparently unaeeountable phenome-
na. People have almost altogether ceased wearing
footgear which requires the assistance Of this
familiar instrument. and like other ancient ap-
plances, it must find its way TO that traditional
garrett in which dwell the stage coach, the hand
press, and other superannuated machinery.
1t is sad to witness its relegation. but en-
couTaging as another evidence to the aet that
this is an age Of universal progress.
