Speaking of the bm introduced by Representative Jenkins of Wisconsin requiring immigrants to take an oath not to assault those in authority. the Chicago Record Herald says with fine sarcasm: This would put the sensi- tive anarchist in an unpleasant di- lemma. He comes meditatins the trivial crime of murder. when the oath is thrust upon him and he must take it and then forego the murder or break his solemn word of honor. That he should commit the really serious crime in order to enjoy the lesser one is ab- horrent to his soul Therefore he stands firmly upon principle. He will give no pledge. but submit to depor- tation rather and those in authority will be enectuany protected forever and a day"

stead of the Indian costume and bIan- i i1ets should be encoura ged.
 | Indian dances and so-Calied indian feasts should be prohibited. Tn many
 cases these dances and feasts are simply subterfuges to cover degrading acts and to disguise immoral purposes. You are directed to use your best eff forts in the suppression of these evils. On CT before June 90. 1902. you will report to this office the progress you have made in the suppression of these evils.
 The task thus set before the Indian agents is q most dihicult one, and as the secretary well suggests, calls for their best tact and diplomacy in carry in6 it out. That most of the Indians will object, goes without saying. With them the wearing of long hair and the painting of their faces constitute the chief joys of fife. But there should be no faltering in carrying out the programme.
 Notwithstanding all the praise which has been bestowed on the Indian schools and the work they are doing in civilizing Indian youth. the fact re- mains that much of their work is wasted. for the reason that when the Indian boy returns to his tribe after
 graduating from school, hi3 life is made miserable by his savage relatives and associates. They wear their hair long, and their faces gre dauoad with paint. They ridicuIe the accomplish meuts of the civilized boy and giil. and take particular delight il making ths-n miserable because they appear to be stuck up" with their short hair and their clean faces. The blanket Indian is almost a thing Of the past in Ari- zona. and nearly all the tribes so fairly well clothed. So the educated children in this territory gre not re- quired to abandon their clothes, but tribal prejudice and ridicule speedily drive the new arrivals into the hlb.t5 of their elders. In desperation. ana for protection against social tyranny fully as potent as anything known to white people. the young Inli1ns from the schools return to the habits which they have been taught 10 abhor- They accept the dirt and the long hair. they talk as little English as possible and heredity does the rest. Within few years. at most, there is little out wardly to distinguish them from the traditional dirty. shiftless savage.
 Even the oldest Indians win speedily recognize, when bereft of horse-tafl hair and painted countenances. that q new era has dawned. Il will be borne in on all that civilization for them means something more than peace with the whites. and the educated youth will find an environment in which there will the pursuit Of the ways of civilization.

One of the most practical steps ever taken for the civilization of the In
 dians has just been de AGAINST cided upon by Secre- PAINT AND tary Hitchcock and LONG HAIR. Commissioner Jones.
 The order has gone forth that the noble red man Of the forest. his squaw and his opposes, shall henceforth dispense with paint and long hair. That is. the bucks must have their hair cut and all must stop painting. It is really one of the most important decisions ever reached by erence to the problem of leading the Indian away from his savage life. The instructions issued to all Indian agents read:
 The wearing of long hair by the male population of your agency is not in keeping with the advancement they are making, or will soon be expected tD make in civilization. The wearing of short hair by the males will be a great step in advance and will certainly hasten their progress toward civiliza- tion. The returned male student far too frequently goes back to the Teser- vation and falls into the old custom of letting his hair grow long. He also paints profusely and adopts ali the old habits and customs which his eiuca- tion in our industrial schools has tried to eradicate. The fault does not lie SO much with the schools as with the conditions found on the reservations.
 On many of the reserva tions the In dians Of both sexes paint, claiming that it keeps the skin warm in winter and cool in summer. But instead of this paint melts when the Indian peTspires and runs down into the eyes. The use of this paint leads to many dis eases of the eyes.
 You are therefore dircCte to in struct your male Indians to cut their hair and beth sexes to stop painting. With some Of the Indians this will be an eas.- matter; with orders it will re CGire coll1iderable tact and perseVer- ancc on the part of yourself and your employees to successfully carry out these instructions. With your Indian employees and those Indians ,, Io draw ratiCns and supplies il should be aa easy matter. a5 2 noncompliance with this order may be made a reason for discharge or for withholding rations and supplies.

PHOENIX. ARIZONA. JAN. 21. 1902.

Almost every newspaper office of importance has rule of it's own as
 to whether Q singular ARE" or plural verb goes with OR IS" the United States. Some
 say the United States ''is.'' while about as many others in sist that the United States are A Washington dispatch states that the house committee on the revision Of the laws has run up against the same time worn proposition whether the verb should be in the singular or the plural. There was much discussion among the members of the committee and the worshippers of the constitution, quot ing from that instrument, had much the best of the argument. It was sug- gested that the committee consult any authority on the subject that could be found. Accordingly the librarian Of congress, the supreme court officials and others were asked to throw light on the question. The result showed that while the constitution and nearly all the laws. documents and messages in the early days of the republic used the plural verb, the tendency has been steadily toward the singular form, which during the past fifteen or twenty years has obtained almost exclusively.
 The question was practically set tied, however. as far as the commit tee was concerned, by the discovery of a pamphlet written by former Sec retary of State John W. Fosts-. with the title Are or Is" In this pam phIet MT. Foster quotes from Hamilton. Webster, Benton. Motley. C. F. Adaus. Jefferson. Marcy. Seward. Fish, Evarts. Blaine. Freliaghuysen, Bay ard, Gresham and Olncy. who used it in the singular In the earlier mes sages of the presidents Jackson only used the singular form, but in later years Lincoln and, since the civil war particularly Grant, Cleveland, Earri- son and Mckinley had used it excl-- sivcly. lie also quotes from decisions of the supreme court, those Of recent years invariably using the singular verb in connection with the United States. Tn no class Of documents is greater attention paid 70 the language employed than in drafting treaties. and ID to 1890 the plural form was used. Since then however, the singular has been adopted. and MT. Foster points to the fur seal treaty Of 1899. the ariotra- tion treaty of 1897 and. lastly, the Hay Pauncefote canal treaty as conspicu- ous examples of the usage.
 After reading the arguments and au- thorities of AIr. Foster the committee has decided Jhat legally at least the Limited States is" and from a re- publican standpoint this is eninentiy proper, for under republican politics, the United States surely "is'' a nation.

EXIT THE BURLEsQUE.

The absence from the theaters of the
middle west of the so-called burlescle
shows has been noticeable for several
seasons. It might at first be taken as
proof that the stage is growing better.
1t was not many years ago that Dun
can Thomoson's female MINISTRIES, Sam
T. Jacks Creoles and Lily Clay's bur-
lesquers heralded their coming to town
with fiaring posters which caused the
passing Of resolutions by various socie-
ties. The posters gave every evidence
that the performance would eclipse, from
racy standpoint, any of the vaudeville
features which were supposed to have
preceded tie fall of Babylon It was
the popular opinion that these shows
could make money in the west. They
did not. and that was the reason they
disappeared.
The west was TIE first to rebuke this
sort of entertainment. Now the states
little further east have shown a dis
position to avoid such performances
and the result is that the managers of
such companies have decided to send out
burlesque companies which will give
performances devoid of any objection

on. this era of anti-tomm-rrot and in

ART AND FASHION.

1t is a common saying that literature
and the arts would be in bad way in
this country if it were not for the inter
est which women take in them. The
men condescendingly and it must be adj
mitted without concern for the dangers
of feminine supremacy in this line, give
women the credit for being the prin-
cipal patrons of intellectual interests
among US. and the women graciously
acknowledge the impeachment. But now
and then something occurs to make a
thoughtful observer wonder whether,
after all, the intellectual and artistic in
terests of women are really as serious
and momentous as is commonly pre-
tended. and if the New Woman of
whom we hear so much with all her
clubs and fads and other advanced ideas
has gotten so very far from the frivoli-
ties and vanities which used to be sup
posed to sum up the concerns of the sex.
