INDIAN AFFAIRS.

'Washingten, Noy. l2.-The total ex-
penditre by thegovernment on account
Of the Indian service from March 4, 1855
up to and including July 10, 1909. has
been 1888 ,35S,2I7, according to the ansu.
al report Of Commissioner of Indian Az.
fairs Villa m A. Jones. The expendi.
lures for the fiscal year ended last July
amounted to $l0, 175, ,1N. 0fthis mount
at least $3,s30D0e was devoted to the
cause ofIndian education. The report
reviews the change in the system of
transporting supplies, by which supplies
are accepted in open market by com.
mon carrier at tariff or better rates and
estimates that this sayes2O per cent in
cost. Under the head OF obstacles to
self support to the'Indians, the report
deprecates the ration system, annuity
payments and the'leasing of aIletments.
The ration system, says the report, is the
collary Of the reservation system. The
'1ndian population Of the "United States
is about.267 800, of which 45;2270 receive
"a daily ration. The ration is secured
and its value varies according to the

State Christian Endeavor.

Delegates from the various societies
of the Christian Endeavor, forming
the State Union of Christian EndeayOr
for North Carolina, will meet in con-
vention in the Christian church of
Raleigh, April $500.
The executive committee is antici-
pating the largest attendance Of dele
gates and the most successful cOnven-
ton in the history of Christian En-
deavor in the State. The program is
in preparation and will be ready for
publication in few days. \ large
number of prominent Christian work
ers are expected to be present, and
the following have already promised
TO take part on the program: Rev. j.
u. Newman, ID. d., president Of Elon
College: Rev c. II. Whitaker, of Bur
lington: Rev. II. II. Rondthaler. of
Salem; Rev. NJ. \. Kelsey. Of High
Point; Rev. j. +. Rodgers. of Wilkes
boro: Prof. S. NJ. Smith. of Henley;
Mr.. +. II. Stockton. of Salem, and Rev.
NJ w. Butler, of Raleigh. Other
places on the program will be filled
by young men and women who are
actively identified with the Christian
Endeavor work in different parts OF
the State.
Christian Endeavor is young III
North Carolina. and numerically
speaking it is weak in Raleigh, there
being but one society within the city
limits. This society is in the Chris
tian church, and is one of the most
active and best in every particular to
be found in the State. As is we'll
known fact, Christian Endeavor is an
INSTRUMENTATION organization and
it's growth has been the most rapid of
any young peoples movement yet or
ganized. 1t is but little over nine
teen years old. and its membership
numbers about three million. and the
societies are found in all lands
where the Gospel is preached, thus
proving the international as we'll as
INSTRUMENTATION feature of the
movement.
Christian Endeavor stands pre-em-
inently for devotion to Christ and
secondly for loyalty to ones denomi-
nation. 1t is distinctly religious or
ganization and its strength as move
ment lies in this fact. Local societies
often embrace literary and social fea-
lures which in themselves are harm
less, and when rightly used prove
helpful. but real Christian Endeavor
never allows these to dominate in
any way the prime work of the so
ciety which is for Christ and the
church"
The sessions of the convention will
all be open. and it is the desire of the
Christian Endeavorers that all who
are interested in the work, or desire
information regarding it will attend.
a cordial invitation is extended to the
public to attend this convention.
where a welcome will be extended in
the name of One Who is our Master,
even Christ.
Christian Endeavorers trust that
this convention will be the means OF
strengthening the work in Raleigh
and of bringing a blessing to all who
attend

Plank For the Democratic Platform
Suggested.

To the Editor: | herewith submit
for publication a plank hat | hope
you will kindly give space in your
paper, for the Democrats OF North
Carolina to consider for adoption at
the State Democratic Convention
with an eye single to submitting it for
adoption at the National Convention
in July as the basis of a sound
money system and plan for retiring
the public debt, and requiring the
national banks to deposit silver and
gold bullion, instead of double inter
est drawing mortgage on the homes
of the American people, for which
they are taxed TO secure the national
bank bills of circulation. The plank
proposed does away with any further
discussion of the question of silver be-
ing cheap. The same money changers
who now call it cheap will soon be
crying for q LOWER ratio than 16 TO /.
This plank will give us a sound money
basis that insures every dollar bearing
the governments stamp whether of
paper or metal to bring its face value
the world over. and give our govern
ment the soundest credit of any ma
ton on earth. This plank encourages
every citizen that can procure. not a
DEBT on the homes of the American
people to be paid by taxation, but
gold and silver to help add honest,
sound primary money to the volume
OF our circulation. and we will soon
be what Lincoln predicted. that we
would be. the treasury and money

BUSINESS WOMAN.

The Duchesse Of Marlborough is dis
playing that Shrewdness and capacity for
business which seems to be one of the
especial virtues of American women says
a London weekly. Everyone may not be
aware that when the Duke of Marlbor
ough married Consuelo Vanderbilt she at
once proceeded to master every detail
connected with the management of the
enormous estates which surround the
historical palace of Blenheim. Those
hours spent in patient study have already
borne good fruit in the gradual improve
ment OF the property. And now that the
Duke of Marlborough has gone to the war
his wife will entirely manage his affairs
and direct all operations on the estates.
