Almost as
"Noiselessly as the daylight
 CComes when night is done,'

AlIlOSl dS
 ''Noiselessly as the daylight
 CComes when night is done,'
 has a great work been begun in Alabama. A few years ago, the cry of yagrance, of sin and injustice coming up from helpless childhood in our beautiful State, Reached the ear of Christian mother. Then other Christian mothers listened, and now they are trying to make its appeal heard and needed by men and women far and near. It is the spirit of motherhood that is in this effort to make home for Alabama's s wayward boys-that larger motherhood that embraces the unloved and uncared for. The greatest force known is helpless but potential childhood
 ''EVery birth is a miracle every manager is holy place. every child is the son of the Highest" The great problems of poli- tics of crime, of capital and labor, of riches and poverty, can be answered to- day as they were 2000 years ago, when the Gentle Master "set a child in the midst of them" Every bad child" says the superintendent of the Louisville Reform School, "defrauded of its rights to be well bred and we'll taught"
 
 led by Mrs. R. D. Johnston, appealed to the State for means to give the boys their rights to save them from the mines and penitentiaries, to save them for good citi- zens and from being a menace to civiliza- ton. In response to their urgent pleas charter was given them and a paltry three thousand dollars for their experiment in child saving. This scanty recognition did not daunt these women. They took up the work, and for two years they have coined into money and land and buildings their personal comfort, their inherited timidity their pride and prejudices, their pity and their love.
 A thoughtful and appreciative judge of Birmingham recently wrote: "rhe Indus- trial School for Boys of Alabama is mag nifcent monument to the love and devotion of the noble women for the wayward boys. The home is beautifully located on an ideal farm of 136 acres, about one mile above East Lake. Think of what they have ac- complished. The farm consists of 136 acres Of land valued at whot adjacent lands re- gently sold for, $l00 per acre, is worth S1S,- 600. The building, four stories, including a brick basement and commodous attic, cost sS,000. Live stock donated and now on the farm, including some registered cattle, is worth $4O0. making the total value of the plant S22.000. There is now an outstanding debt amounting to A000. This makes the net balance of SIS 000." He then describes the beautiful land the bold spring and the lovely spring branch, but adds: "A deeper interest and greater fascination are given to this place, however, when you think of the purpose and the object of the school, and of the unselfsh labor some noble wo- men have given to it. You know that the last census places Alabama near the first of the States in illiteracy. But these good women have placed her among the foremost

At the Woman's Club

The meeting at the Woman's Club yes terday afternoon was under the auspices of the home department of which Mrs. Samuel Blake is director. The afternoon was not only delightful but included some very practical features that would have con- vinced the most prejudiced man in the world that clubs for women have a reason for existing/ The discussion yesterday were along the line of receipts for salads, beaten biscuit celery and cabbage shaw and cakes, and merely demonstrated by several deli ciously prepared dishes. Mrs. J. D. Moore brought to the club delicious pototo salad, Mrs. T. s. Smith, old-fashioned pound cake caramel and nut cake, while Mrs. F. D. Frazier's beaten biscuit made every wo- man eager for the receipt. Indeed the menu was so delicious that every club we- man resolved to at once excel the other in a salad and the other beautifully prepared delicacies. The occasion was most inter esting and instructive for it is recog- nized fact that the best club women are t4,ose who make study of everything that concerns the welfare of their families, spir- itually and bodily, and who realize the inn portance of serving well-prepared meals

Sir: The commission has the
honor herewith to transmit agree

the United States commission to
the Five Civilized Tribes and the
Cherokee tribe of Indians.
Very respectfully,
TAMs BIxBY,
Acting Chairman
The Secretary of the Interior.

Sir: The undersigned delegates,
representing the Cherokee nation
in the matter of formulating an
agreement in connection with the
Dawes commission between the
United States and the Cherokee
nation have this day completed
their labors, and the agreement
has been signed by the parties, re-
spectively.
There Is contained in said agree
ment provision to the effect that
section Is Of the act OF congress APP
proved June 28, 1898, known as
the Curtis act shall not apply to or
in any manner affect the lands or
other property of the Cherokee
nation. This agreement does not
take effect until ratified by con-
gress, and by the Cherokee people
at a popular election to be called
by the principal chief.
In the meantime, and pending
negotiations and legislation on this
subject, we respectfully request
that you win not make or ratify
any mining leases to lands in the
Cherokee nation. We have signed
this agreement believing that no
such leases would be made and we
assure you that il any such leases
should be made in the meantime
the Cherokee people would reject
this agreement at the polls. 1t is
the universal desire of the Chero-
kee people that they should be
permitted to take their allotments
free from any incumbrance what
ever, and especially free from any
mining leases. While the Chero-
kee nation has authorized mining
leases to be made, yet such author
ity cannot extend beyond the allot-
ment of our lands, unless the
United States shall ratify and con-
firm such leases, or make others
under the thirteenth section of the
Curtis act.
We are, very respectfully, your
obedient servants,

OBJECTS TO SECTION 80.
Possibility Of Causing More
Litigation.

Claremore, April 90 - Editor
ChieftaiD: Since some of the
newspapers have seen fit to assert
that the Cberokees have no min
eral leases to worry about under
the present Cherokee treaty, | am
anxious to know, as well as some
others, as to what is the meaning
OF the last clause of section thirty
nine of the treaty. What claims
other than those arising under the
laws, usages and customs of the
tribe does this refer TOP The
opinion here generally is that re-
ference is had to the Standard Oil
and other mining companies, and
will defeat the treaty sure if it is
not changed by congress, for the
people are averse TO litigation.
JOHN BULLETTE.
This section was undoubtedly
incorporated into the agreement
in the interst of the mineral leases
made under the Cherokee laws.
Chief Burlington is authority tor
the statement that ibe matter was
discussed while the agreement
was pending, and that investiga-
tion showed that no leases had
been approved by the secretary of
the interior. In fact all such
leases have been turned down by
the secretary, who to make sure
that no trouble could arise rela-
tive TO these leases recommended
amendments to the ags cement to
that effect in his report accom-
the agreement.

Department ofthe Interior, April
10th, 1900.
Sir; / beg to transmit herewith
for the consideration of the senate,
an agreement between the commits
sion for the five civilized tribes
and the Cherokee tribe of Indians,
dated April 8, 1900; also copies of
the following communications re-
lating to this agreement: First,
letter dated the 10th instant from
the acting chairman of said com
mission; and, second. letter dat
ed the 9th instant, from the dele
gates who negotiated the agree
ment ON behalf of the tribe. | re-
spectfully recommend that sec
tion 10 and II of the agreement be
amended as follows.
10, Lands allotted to citizens
hereunder shall not in any manner
whatsoever, or al any time, be in
numbered, taken, or sold to secure
or satisfy any debt or obligation
contracted or incurred prior to the
date of the deed to the allottee
therefore, and such lands shall not
be alienable by the aHottee or his
heirs at any time before the ex-
piration OF five years from the rat
itication Of this agreement, except
with the approval of the secretary
of the interior.
IL. Before receiving nis deed
therefor, each citizen shall select
from his allotment 40 acres OF
land, and if he fail to select the
same it shall be selected by the
Dawes commission, and the proper
designation thereof shall be made
in the deed to the allottee. Said
40 acres shall not be alienabie at
any time before the expiration of
twenty-five years from the ratif-
cation OF the agreement, except |
with the approval of the secretary |
Of the interior, and during the time
the same remains so inalienable
shall not be subject to any tax or
be incumbered, taken, or sold to
secure or satisfy any bebt or obli-
cation Of the allottee contracted or
incurred while the land remains
so inalienable. A lease which
authorizes mining and the extrac
ton Of oil, coal, or other minerals
from the land shall be considered
an alienation within the meaning
of this and the proceeding section.
The purpose of this amendment
is to protect the Indians against
an improvident and wasteful dis
position of their allotments. It
will require the lapse Of few
years after the ratification of this
agreement to prepare the Indians
for their new responsibilities, and
during this period they ought not
to be permitted of their own voli-
tion to dispose of any portion of
their allotment; first, lest they
make an imprOvident disposition
thereof, and second, lest they
waste or dissipate the proceeds of
the sale. They should also be
required to retain, without the un-
restricted power Of alienation for
period Of twenty-five years, a por-
tion of their lands, so that the ex-
pertinent of alloting their lands in

THE KANSAS WHEAT CROP.

The wheat crop OF Kansas this year
is phenomenal. 1t was necessary to i'm
port $1,000 men to help harvest it, their
fare a paid, and skilled men were
able to earn $3.50 per day. The area
is not estimated by acres. but by miles.
and the average yield is said to be %
bushels per acre. A Salina correspond
II of the Chicago Record cites one
case as follows:
Milton Shields purchased 100 acres
of land last fall a few miles northwest
of Salina. He sowed 100 acres of it in
wheat, and rented an additional SO
acres. which he also sowed to the same
cereal. He receives only two-thirds OF
the crop on the rented land. and yet his
net profits on the crop will easily pay
for his entire farm
The indications are that the prices
will be higher this year, and if they
are. it is possible that the Kansas farm
er will believe thoroughly in that i'm
perialism which gives to the American
the opportunity to accomplish all that
he dare wish to, provided he has the
pluck and tenacity to continue to try.

WYOMING'S POPULATION.

1t will certainly not be strange if the
census reports for this year give Wyo-
ming 10000 population. a gain of SO
per cent. over the population of 1890.
Wyoming is so great in resources and
area that an addition of 10000 to the
number Of its inhabitants might readi-
ly be made without attracting atten-
ton. 1t is capable under proper de-
%velopment of sustaining ten times its
present population, and it may with
reason expect a rapid growth in the
near future. That it has grown since
1895 is known to every one who has
kept informed about Wyoming con
ditions, although it advanced but little
during the first half of the decade Just
closed.
Great enterprises will result in the
construction within the mex few years
of large irrigation bitches in the north
ern part of the state, and the land thus
reclaimed will furnish homes for thou

states lying farther east. The develop
ment Of its resources in iron and coal
will call for an additional population,
and the Grand Encampment district
near the Colorado line promises to be-
come a large and fourishing camp. A
mining district might readily be de-
veloped there that would sustain a pop
ulation as large as the present number
of C~heyenne's inhabitants.
With the growth of the state such
cities as Cheyenne, Rawlins and Lar
annie will increase in population, just
~ similarly situated places in Colora-
do have grown under a like stimulus.
That Wyoming has added so per cent
70 Its population since 1890 will cause
NO surprise. II 1t proves to be the case.
There will be occasion for surprise,
however. II In the coming decade the
shall not increase 100 per
cent over what It is today.-Denver Re-

WATCH

1t cannot be learned at Union Pacific
headquarters in Denver, says the
Times, that any rule has
been promulgated from Omaha
headquarters requiring an extra physi-
cal examination Of the employees. The
rumor which has caused so much com
ment probably started from the gossip
of some fellow stationed on the top OF
a box car out in Nebraska, as nothing
definite has yet materialized in this
section so far as can be learned.
The employees Of the company are,
however, patiently watching for the ap-
of the watch-inspection cir
cular, which, it is said, will be bulle-
tined neXt week. 1t is understood that
