Washington, Dec 5.-Congressman
Reeder of Kansas will, at the first OPP
portunity, introduce bill to provide
that the Fort Hays military reservation
be granted to the state for q public
park and for educational purposes. 1t
is proposed to establish branch of the
Agricultural college and the State Nor
NAL school on the site of old Fort Hays.
On February IS, 1895, the Kansas
legislature passed concurrent resolu-
ton requesting the state delegates TO
the general congress to secure the pas
sage of such an act, if possible. The
bill was reported favorably by the
committee on public lands, passed con-
gress, and died for lack of the presi-
dents signature.

Army Team Beat The Navy seventeea
to Five.
Washington, Dec. 5.-The state, war
and navy departments were almost de-
serted as result of the West Point
Annapolis football game in Philadel-
phia. A special train left Washington
at 10 o'clock, carrying Secretary Long.
Secretary Root, Postmaster General
Smith, General Miles, Adjutant Cen
eral Corbin, Assistant Secretary Allen
and a large number of officers and
ladies. Almost every chief of bureau
both on the army and navy side, took
holiday in order to see the game. In
the department there was considerable
betting in quiet way, the odds being
in favor of the navy, in many cases as
much as to being given on the An
napolis team. West Point defeated
Annapolis seventeen to five.

Iff1G8ble Afe0-FOreSt Reserves, Etc.
Washington, Dec. 4.-The report OF
the interior department estimates the
irrigable area of the arid region of the
United States at "A 900 acres, capable
of comfortably supporting, under a
proper irrigation system $4,000, 600
people. Reasonable expenditures both
by the federal and state governments
booking to a well-defined irrigation
system, are urged. Nearly fifty pro-
posed new forest reserves or additions
to those already established are under
consideration.
The Dawes commission reports to the
department that the time has not yes
arrived for the installation of terri
torial or state government in Indian
territory, owing mainly to lack of uni
form land tenures. Attention is called
to the phenomenal increase in railway
traffic in the last two years amounting
approximately to an increase of earn
ings in 1899 over 1898 to 50, coo, 600 and
the previous year to $4,000, 900, the
increase being only limited by the lack
of cars to carry products.

|SECOND-ClASS MAIL NATTER
Is Dead Weight Upon the Income
Of the Postal System.
WOULD SERVE THE PEOPLE.

Washington. d. c.. Dec. 5.-The chief
feature of the annual report of the
postmaster general is plea for con-
gressional action to stop the abuse OF
second class mail matter privileges,
which, he says, results in an annual
waste Of upwards of $50, 600, 900. The
financial exhibit for the fiscal year
shows total expenditures of SOL. $780,
161, and total receipts of s95, Oe1 1884, the
deficiency being se,4ae.7 TAT, less than
last year.
Secretary Smith concludes that over
one-fourth of the entire volume and
weight of the mails pays second
class matter when it should pay third
class and that this furnishes only one
fifty-fifth part of the postal revenue
and its carrying, reckoning at cents
a pound, costs S14, los, 129, while reve-
nue. from it was 81, 763, 516, thus caus-
ing a loss to the government Of over
ST., OOO,O 900.
If there is to be favored class let it
embrace all the people. With this
class paying properly. even penny
postage, with reasonable limitations,
could be applied to letters without en-
failing deficit larger than that of the
last few years, and possibly with none
at all.
The free delivery of the mails in the
rural districts has proved to be one of
the most important among recent de-
velopments of the postal service, and
presents in its possibilities question
of the largest proportions.
The apprehension at one time enter
tanned that this service would prove
too expensive to maintain, even in a
limited form. and impossible of general
adoption, should, it would seem, be
dispelled upon an impartial examina-
ton of the facts and figures given in
the report of the first assistant post
master general.

Washington, Dec 4.-Secretary of
war Root, in his report on our islands
takes up Porto Rico first, as presenting
the simplest problem, and, after dis
cussing the present conditions there,
emphasizing the ignorance of the peo-
pie of any modern system of govern
tnent, he holds that they should be
provided with the kind of administra-
sion to which we have been accustom-
ed, with just as much participation on
their part as is possible without en-
abling their inexperience to make it
ineffective, and with oppol tunity for
them to increase their capacity for gov
eminent. The secretary lays stress
upon past failures because of the re-
fusal of defeated minority to partici-
pate further in government, which
he says is precisely the cause of the
continual revolutions in the West In
dies and Central America, and marks
a rudimentary stage of political de
velOpment.

Re-apportionmeat Of Delegates.

Chicago, Dec. 4.-There is a strong
sentiment favoring the re-apportion-
ment of the representation in the re-
publican national convention. The
present time is. considered favorable
and opportune for the change to be
made as there is no probability OF
strife for the nomination. 1t has long
been recognized as justice that states
should have no larger representation
in party conventions than according to
the number of votes cast for the party
ticket, while they have been given
representation based on population.

PENSION ATTORNEYS FEES.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 4.-Secretary
Hitchcock, in his report says of pen
lions: At the close of the fiscal year
there were 991,519 pensioners, a de-
crease of 2,195 during the year. The
average annual value of all pensions
WAS s13e.74. The Spanish war proba-
bly, will increase the pension roll dur
ing the coming fiscal year. The secre-
tary concurs in the recommendation
for legislation providing that no pen
zion be granted to commence prior to
the date of fling the claim and urges
legislation to definitely construe the
act of June %, 1890, relating to widows
pensions. Regarding this he says: I'm
order to more exactly define the words
means of support approve the rec
ommendation of the commissioner of
pensions that the act of June %, 1890,
be so amended that a pensionable
status be granted to widows whose in
come, independent of the proceeds of
their daily labor, is not in excess of
$3.50 per annum." The report also rec
pmmends legislative authority for BIZ
ennial examinations of pensioners;
legislation prohibiting the payment of
''any compensation whatever to PEN
sion attorneys and agents for any SER
vice in connection with any claim or
proceeding under the pension laws,
Except as such may within certain linn

CUBA TO BE INDEPENDENT.
A. . Matter OF Course Under Our Treaty
With Spain.

As Matter OF Course Under Our Treaty
With Spain.
Washington, Dec. 4.-Concernina
Cuba, the report of the secretary Of
war says the control which we are ex.
ercising in trust for the people of Cuba
should not, and of course will not, b
continued any longer than is necessary
to enable the people to establish suit
able government to which the control
shall be transferred, which shall really
represent the people of Cuba and bs
able to maintain order and discharge
international obligations. That gov:
eminent, when established, must solve
for Cuba the problems we are to solve
as to Porto Rico. The conduct of the
Cuban people is said to be admirable
There have been agitators, but the
substantial bodies of educated Cuban:
have shown themselves to be patriotic,
appreciative and helpful, while thu
great body of uneducated Cubans have
been patient and lawabiding. 1t i.
pointed out that the inability of two
thirds of the people to read and write.
their lack of experience in government.
and the factional feeling left by bloody
conflicts make it necessary to proceed
somewhat slowly in the formation of q
government.
1t is said that, by the termination OF
the year allowed by treaty for the
Spanish population to elect whether to
become Cubans or remain Spaniards,
it will be for the first time possible to
determine who are Cuban citizens, en-.
titled to take part in that government.
BY that date-April II next-the cen.
sus will have been completed, and we
shall be ready to provide for municipal
elections, placing local government in
the hands of citizens, and these local
governments will form a representa-
tive convention to frame a constitution
and provide for general government
of the island, to which the United
States will surrender the reins of gov.
eminent.

Center Of INTELLIGENCE.
Kansas First Among the Forty
Five States.
CENSUS BUREAU so DECLARES.

Washington, Dec 5.-An interesting
reau as result of the recent examine
tions for positions in gathering the
census of 1900 whereby it appears that
bleeding Kansas" leads the United
States as an educational center, closely
followed by Michigan.
When it was determined that these
examinations should be held through
out the country it was the general i'm
preston at the census bureau that fully
two-thirds of the applicants in the
East would easily pass the required
tests. But when the returns were in
twas ascertained that the figures must
be revised, for not more than half OF
the applicants in the East could stand
the necessary test of mental fitness for
tabulating the census returns for the
close of the nineteenth century.
A surprise was in store for the ex-
aminers, however, when they struck
the Golden West, where fully four
ffths of the applicants for places not
only passed creditable examinations,
but their averages were SO far in ad-
vance of those in the East as to excite
comment.
Kansas bore off the palm and stands
first among the forty-five states com
center of intelligence, SO far as the
educational test applied can furnish a
criterion

children the youngest babe, placing
the two eldest in the Soldiers orphans

that placing the children i'm the home
meant final separation from them. It
was impossible to furnish her with EN-.
