TAKING THE CENSUS.
Problem of Counting the Indians
at the Forthcoming
~ Census
Would Appear That Some of the
Tribal Indians Should be
-a. Enumerated ....
Indians and the Census.

AAAAoAAo 0Ao SA4S SCASu
Among the troublesome problems
which have to be solved by the census
office are the legal questions which con-
tinually arise. The Indian census for
instance fairly bristles with legal diff
culties. In 1890 the census law provided
that a special report upon the Indians
should be made. A volume of 100 odd
pages was published, profusely illus
trated and touching every point of the
Indian problem. For once in history
poor Lo" was accorded justice. The
volume was SO pretty that the edition
was soon exhausted and now the depart
ment of the interior has not even a copy
for the census Office itself.
But the law providing for the Twelfth
census makes no special provision for
an Indian census; nor does it authorize
such a special report as was made ten
years ago. It is at this point that the
real difficulties of the census office re-
garding the Indians begin.
AAo AAuldu pOpuldClOu luou CANNOT De
treated by itself and described in a D
rate report. But the Indians who have
taken up land in severalty will be count
ed as citizens of the United States. In
this state there is a number of Indians
of the Fort Totten tribe who have sew
cred their tribal relations. On the other
hand, there are several thousand Indians
at Standing Rock and Fort Berthold,
who are much further advanced along
the lines of civilization, who have stock,
money in bank, and are far more pro-
gressive than the Indians who have sew
cred tribal relations. 1t would seem
that, as a matter of justice, they are
as much entitled to be counted as the
other class. The law says Indians not
taxed" shall be excluded. But tribaI
Indians are taxed, if they come within
any of the provisions of the government
revenue laws. This being the case, they
should be counted in taking the census

POLITICAL NOTES.

Bryan despsirs of the future Of the
country because voters insist on per-
hitting business TO influence their poll
tics, and vet he himself has grown
wealthy BY making politics his business
The Democrats try 10 poke fun at the
lsboring man because he Is asked 70 vote
for full dinner pail. But they cannot
point to a single measure they have ever
passed for the benefit OF the American
wsge-esrner.
The Democratic defeat IN November
should not be charged against Chairman
Jones, Bryan, or even Webster Dawn.
IL will be due 10 the fact that the poll
cies advocated by the party are wrong,
while those advanced by the Republicans
meet the approval Of the free, thought
ful voters Of the country.
In 1895, under Democratic SdministrA-
ton. our favorable trade balance was
81, 56s. 900 During the last three years.
under the Republican policy OF expan-
sion in the worlds markets. our vslus-
BILE trade balance has averaged more
than 1856, 0O0. 900 each wear. This
means more work for the mills and more
work for American labor.
For three consecutive times Mr.. Cleve-
land WAS the nominee Of the Democratic
party for the Presidency; yet the Bryan
ties declare that he was not Democrat.
Mr.. Bryan Il the nominee OF the Popu-
lists and free-silver Republicans; vet,
