John J. Smith, says the Boston Tran script, Ifs the oldest living negro Free Mason in this country, in age and in service. He is the only living member of African lodge, F. and A. M, from which all the regular negro lodges of Masons in this country draw their au- thority. He is thirty-three degree Mason, and has served in about all of the offices from the first to that degree in Masonry. He is also, with the eX- ception of George T. Downing, of New port, Rhode Island, the oldest living ne- gro Odd Fellow, in age and service, in the country.

Lace studded with gems is one of the trimmings that will be worn extensive ly at the coronation ceremonies. Tn ad- dition to amethysts, garnets and other semi-precious stones, sapphires, emer- aids and even diamonds will be used, the stones costing from S4 to s200. The lace need not be very heavily studded to make it extremely costly. Roses and lilies of the valley, it is said, will be the popular coronation flowers.

The town council of East Providence, Rhode Island, has adopted an ordinance which should do much to prevent the disagreement of the highways by ad- vertising signs. In East Providence, as elsewhere, the trees, fences and rocks have been used indiscriminately for the display of signs and posters usually ugly and often objectionable. The new ordinance prohibits these except with provides for fining offenders.

creditable to democrats, who had two
clean young men to vote for, and it
was their duty to elect them. They
had always been outspoken, Mr. Bro
ply especially, in support of every
thing that pertained to the welfare OF
the working people in Waterbury, but
if the returns of yesterdays election
be any criterion. to go by such work
counts for nothing with some people.
There was nothing to be said against
the public or private record of either
of the democratic candidates for repre-
sentatives and those who opposed them
on the ground of personal friendship
will look in vain for return of the
fayors from the men whom they sup
ported, for the party they represent
has no sympathy with them and their
representatives cannot afford to prove
traitors to the machine. A fecreant
democrat is dubbed as a good citizen
by republicans, but republican who
balks at his party nominees is marked
as a dangerous man and promptly
hustled outside the breastWorks.
Considering the fact that the demo
cratic candidate for congressman at
large made no canvass in Waterbury
it must be admitted that the Stamford
man made good showing. The only
thing that saved Lil1ey was the fndif-
ference of large numbers of working
people who hadn't enough interest in
the contest to take a hand in the tus-

and now if he makes good his boast to
do great things for Waterbury and

well as those who fiocked to his stand

efforts. But Mr. Lilley will have to
do better at Washington than he did
in Hartford in order to earn the in

The election returns of yesterday con-
tain little crumbs of comfort for demo-
Gratis. The other fellows swept the
boards. carrying everything in sight
with the exception of the Office of
judge of probate which seems to be
impregnable, so nobody need blame
the victors for not taking possession
of that too. 1t was a queer election
In many respects. Men who had been
clamoring for an opportunity to de-
mOlish the candidates Of the trusts
andscOmbines suddenly experienced
change of heart and were on the street
yesterday working for the men and the
principles they had been declaiming
against up to the eve of election.
Labor men made a strong fight for the
republican candidates and other ele-
ments who have hitherto been divided
politically decided to make one united
stand and went with the victors almost
to man. Mayor Ki1duff was handled
without gloves. Our morning contem-
porary who thinks there is a mud

rolling by announcing that Kilduff
should not be elected because he
doesn't pay his taxes. This statement
was deliberate falsehood, but of
course there was no chance to refute
it in time to set the injured man right
in the minds of those who believed it
to be true. Even if it were so it was
unquestionably the meanest kind of
politics but it served a purpose and,
so long as it did those who used it
have no qualms of conscience about it.
But what's the use talking about it
anyway? Let the figures tell. Here

1t is not fair to criticize democrats
who voted yesterday because the
election went to the republicans. The
blame, if blame there be, rests with
those who remained at home. In the
fourth and fifth wards about nine hum
bred electors didn't vote at all and it
is not unreasonable to believe that the
bulk of these would have voted the
democratic ticket if they had gone to
the polls. This shows that we have q
large number of people in town who
have no interest in public affairs and
don't care if the country went to the
dogs.

: Yesterday the Democrat carried in
its columns an item which told Of GER
tain men appearing at the polls and not
being allowed to vote, for the reason
that some one had already voted on
the names of the parties. To-day the
Democrat has further proof that the
work of voting in this manner was car
ried on very largely. 1t looks as though
it was in the interest of some individ-
ua1, and it must be said that whoever
was at the back of it worked his
points nicely. About half-past 4 yes
terday Tommaso Boiano and Giovanni
DiVito of Hawkins street presented
themselves at the polls and found that
their names had been checked off, as
some one had already voted for them.
Some of the friends Of the two men
are very indignant over the matter and
cannot understand why such a thing is
allowed. In Italy, where these men
came from, they say such acts would
inva1idate the election.

FOR INDIAN CITIZENSHIP.
Tribal Funds Will Be Divided As
Soon As Possible.
DAWES COMMISSION GOES.

Washington, Jan. An accordance
with the recommendations of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in his message to con-
gress and in keeping with the policy
outlined some time ago by Mr.. w. A.
Jones, commissioner Indian affairs, the
first steps looking to the adoption of
plan to make the Indians self-support-
ing has been taken.
Commissioner Jones addressed a cir
cular letter to every Indian agent in
the United States, calling for data
concerning the number of Indians on
the different reservations who are
living on allotted lands and are capable
of managing their own affairs.
1t is proposed to dissolve the tribal
funds as such, and that the funds of
the Indians in the United States treas
ury be transferred to the credit of the
individual members. AS rapidly as
the individual Indian shows his ability
to manage hls own affairs, he shall
have his portion of this fund allotted
to him and his annuity will then cease.
1t is known that many Indians now
living in tribal relations are anxious to
break away from these environments
and make their own battle for success
with the white men. Mr.. Jones and
the officials of the Indian department
believe that the encouragement of this
desire will have good effect, and will
soon result in the solution of the In
dian problem.
There seems to be no doubt that the
Indian committees of both the house
and senate will recommend that the
Dawes commission be discharged, and
that the work now in the hands of that
body be placed in the hands of one
man, who shall have such assistance as
needed, and who shall report direct to
the commissioner of Indian affairs and
the secretary of the interior. This
action, in the opinion of the members
of the committee, is necessary in
order to secure a speedy conclusion of
the work of the commission, and to
prevent recurrence of the conflicts
that have occurred between the Dawes
commission and the other branches of
the Indian service.
