Land Grab Discovered

Washington, Dec. S.-The watch.
tulness of Representative Moody in
committee on Indian affairs has pre-
vented another land grabbing scheme
OF the first water slipping in the
Indian appropriation bill as an inno-
cent-looking amendment. Just as
the House committee was about to re-
port the bill, Acting Chairman Curtis
presented an amendment which he
said was recommended by the Indian
Ofice, providing that, where Indian
reservations, created subsequent to
transcontinental railways, we're found
to embrace alternate sections belong
ing to such railroads, the companies
should have the right to relinquish
these sections and select in lieu there
Of lands OF equal area land. in the
dublic domain, either from the sur
veye or unsurveyed land.
Moody recognized that this was
a provision even more sweeping than
the forest reserve lieu selection was
proving and so informed the commit
tee. Alter its evil effects we're pointed
out, the provision was sent back to
the Indian Office with y request that
the Commissioner frame an amend
ment either proposing to purchase
these lands direct from the Indians
or permit an exchange in an equitable
basi,.
AS he pursued :he case further Mr..
Moody found that the legislation was
suggested by one Of the land grant
roads which owns over a million and
hall acres OF land in Indian reser-
vations in New Mexico and Arizona,
lands not over l cent an acre, but
which under the proposed legislation
could be exchanged Tor land worth
$40 an acre an more. This is only
one OF several roads that would bene
fit.
Now that the purpose of the inno-
cent looking provision is known, there
is little danger OF its Incorporation in
the bill. Whe, the railroad attorneys
laid their case before the department
they grossly misrepresented the facts
and managed to throw blind over
the eyes of Indian Office officials.
Had it not been for Mr. Moody, this
scheme would have gotten in the bill
and probably passed.

The question Of shoes is by no means
an unimportant one. An employer in
Ia large department store recently issued
an order that no more old shoes wore
Ito be kept behind the counters: and
swooping down upon the regions afore-
said forthwith. he unearthed barrels Of
old footwear, buttonless,
run down at the heels, split out at the
sides, sole and vamp clinging together
by little more than thread, and all
the rest of the ills that human shoes
ARE heir to-al the rag-tag and bob
tail of decayed elegance. not one sem
sible, easy shoe among them. There
was much grumbling among the em-
ployes, and not a few tears were shed
because of the hardship of being obliged
to stand or walk all day in their
good shoes" But these same good
shoes were after the pattern Of the old
ones, high-heeled, narrow-soled, and in
lalmost every possible way absolutely
lunsuited for a woman who must be on
lher feet all day. A man has a "busi-
mess shoe" and q dress shoe; q
woman her new shoes and her old
shoes" distinguished from each Other
only by the dilapidated condition Of
the latter. And it is a question wiheth-
er the old shoes. in their down-at-the'

wearer than the new ones would be

AS early in the season as 1t is, the
shops have begun to have a spring
like look about them. and in a week
OF so the dressmakers will again be
busy and rushed to their utmost in
making up spring and summer gowns.
1t is a little early at the time Of this
writing to say positively what the
changes for the coming season viii be,
but some of the advanced styles show
skirts still close-htting and spreading
at the feet. Sleeves on some Of the
new models seem to have grown larger
at the arm 's-eye, but fit the arm quite
snug from the elbow down while
the sleeves on others seem to remain
about the same
The Eton and the short. tight and
half-fitting coats are among the spring
styles.
Lawns. organdies, batiste and other
summer materials are made with
skirt. waist and sleeves tucked, so that
it looks as though tucks were going to
be as fashionable the coming as they
have been the past two or three sea-
sons.
Flounces and ruffles will again be
seen on these dainty gowns, two and
three. and the graduated flounce is still
popular
There are pretty lace-striped and
figured silk and cotton materials, in
linen color. with white lace stripes, or
white figures, displayed on the shop
counters: they sell at 40 cents yard.
This material makes a pretty waist OF
full gown and is p inches in width.
There are pretty embroidered muslins
in colors and white at 80 cents 9 yard.
