lands. A stop should be put upon the
indiscrlmlnate permission to Indians to

should be steadily to make the Indian
work like any other man on his own
ground. The marriage laws Of the In

The president concludes his message as
follows:
The death Of Queen Victoria caused
the people Of the United States deep
and heartfelt sorrow. to which the gov
eminent gave full expression. When
President Mckinley died. our nation In
