children have the same right as his OVID.
Where the Indians have taken their allot-

suffrage. In many counties they Outnum

hold the balance o. power thus virtually
fixing the amount OF taxation that the
white settler has to pay for his tthe In
dams benefit.
when these things are taken into con-
sideration the injustice Of imposing en- the
white homesteaders the additional burden
OF the Indians entire support, because in
settling on these lands he voluntarily as
sumed a great portion of the burden OF
such support, becomes apparent.
The only objection that has ever been
made or can be made 10 the passage OF
this bill is the alleged loss that will ac-
crue 10 the Government. and this is vari-
Cusly estimated from $40 600 600 TO So
OCoo0o. These estimates are based on the
hypothesis that all the lands will be taken
and that all the settlers will pay for their
lands. But comparatively a limited area
OF the land is capable of settlement. and
with the conditions now surrounding them

been made nor ever will be made TO en-
force payment The time has been extend
ed year after year by provision incOrpOr-
ated annually in the Indian Appropriation
bill. Ii is time this farce ended and as
worthy and deserving a class Of citizens as
can be found in the nation be accorded
their rights by Congressional action.
United States Senators and Represen-
tatives OF Congress appeared before the
committee and urged its passage. Deloga-
dcns Of citizens from those reservations
appeared and asked that justice be done.
Not a voice was raised in opposition. The
United States Senate has twice passed this
bill by an overwhelming majority. III the
great political parties OF the nation have
declared in its favor most emphatcally.
The platform planks on this subject are
as follows:
Republican: 'Homesteads-W believe
in an immediate return to the free home
stead policy Of the Republican party. and
urge the passage by Congress Of the salts
factory free-homeste8d measure which has
already passed the House and is now pend

"and some of their escapes are little
short of miraculous. A friend of mine.
who is now a prosperous business
man. but who started life as a fireman
and later became an engineer, owes
his life to cup of water, or rather
the desire for one. He was at the time
an engineer, and, wanting drink of
water, stepped from his seat to the
water can on the tender to get it. He
was just raising the can to his lips
when there was terrific crash, the
entire side of the cab was torn OFF,
and the air filled with flying pieces of
wood and iron. Luckily neither he
nor the fireman was seriously injured,
and they, with the aid of the trains
crew, managed to bring the train to
stop without further harm. They then
found that the connecting rod on the
right hand side had broken in two,
and the two loose ends flying around
with terrific force had wrecked every
thing with which they came in con-
tact. The right hand side Of the cab
was torn to smithereens. and as the
engineers seat was directly above the
loose end OF the connecting rod at
tached to the rear driving wheel, had
my friend nod had that lucky insplra-
tion to take drink he would beyond
