Wasaiastsn b. c.. Jan 9 Repre-
sentative Curtis ia the house Tues
day offered an amendment including
the Iowa. Sac AID Fox. lSickapoo and
Pottawetsmie Indians ia the provis
ions OF a bin introduced before the
recess OF congress. authorizing ihe
heirs Of certain Indian tribes to sell
and convey inherited lands This bill
provides that the e,mit heirs of dead
Indians to whom a trmt patent was
issued for lands allotted, may sell and
convey the lands inherited, and if
there be both adult and minor heirs,
then the latter may join in sale by
a guardian appointed by the proper
court All conveyances made under
this act will be subject to the ap.
proval Of the secretary Of the interior.
under such rules and regulations as
be may prescribe.
The bill was introduced for the
beu It OF the Ponca Pawnee, otoe
ard Pottawatomie Indians aud the
famendment extending its provisions
to tohe tribes named was recommend
ed by the interior department The
action OF the department in urging
this Legislation is based upon a report
submitted to the Indian bureau by
Cyrus Beede Indian inspector. who
made An investigation last March In
his report Mr. Beede stated that the
heirs to some of the estates In ques.
tion were SO numerous as to make It
difficult to trace them, and that, at the
expiration of twenty-five years (Which
the trust period will expire and fee
Simple patent issue), the difficulties
viii be multiplied unless special pains
are taken to tabulate the genealogies
of the deceased allottee
The inspector referred TO the fact
that. AZ the time allotments were
made. every man, womSa and child
receive one. SO that all were provided,
and suggested that under the legal
distribution to be made at the end OF
che trust period, Che quantity of land
inherited by each individual heir
would be so small as to render the in
heritsnce Of little value, even to chill
dren after the allctments were made.
He WAS consequently inclined 20 be
lieve lhatthe ca Test way to solve the
probidm OF distribution in advance
would be'the passage OF law author
izlng the sale of all such lnds. and
the deposit Of the proceeds Of sale in
the Uadted States treasury to the !
credit OF the present heirs Of the de
ceased sllottee, the amount to bear
interest until the majority OF all minor
heirs.
Mr.. Beede also suggested that the
law might be a continuing one, so that
sales might be made at intervals in
the future as others might die He
believed this plan to be better than
the existing system OF leasing the
lands and paying the proceeds to
proaigate relatives. who would not
work as long as money came in from
leases. and stated this would reduce !
the quantity of leasable farm lands by
nearly 100000 acres To that extent
it would necessitate Indian labor for

The development OF an industry that
has assumed great proportions in the
last half century, is shown by a census
bulletin dealing with facts and figures
regarding watches and watch cases.
The first systematic manufacture Of
watch movements In the world by ma
chinery, began in the United States In
1851. and Of watch cases shortly after
ward, and the present census Is there
fore taken at substantially the end OF
the first half century in the history Of
this remarkable revolution durinG
which automatic machinery for the
most delicate operations has been per-
tected. II is the half century in history
that will mark the era when man
reached that state or development
where his brains planned machinery to
do the work that for all time before
had been done by hand
The bulletin gives the credit for
automatic watch making to Aaron J.
Dennison. who was hsrn in Freeport.
Me, in 1912. He learned the watch.
makers trade. and by his experience in
handling English and Swiss handmade
watches in repair work became i'm
pressed with the necessity for greater
uniformity in the different parts, and
in ls49 succeeded in impressing Bos-
ton capitalists with a plan fof making
watches by machinery They were told
by importers and dealers in watches
that the machine-made watch wouio
be a failure, and that the idea must
surely ruin them but the census figures
now issued show how far from the
truth that prediction was. The report
shows capital of S22,754 ,483 invested
in the manufacture of watches and
watch cases in the United States, there
being fOrty-three such establishments
in this country. The value Of the pro-
ducts In 1890 was Sl4,606,57l. and the
industry employed 1O,7s7 men. From
1880 to 1890 the increase in the product
ot watches was So per cent. and in the
past decade 1913 per cent, while ia

He regarded the postponement OF
the bill last summer ac it's death and
eloquently plead with his Republican
brethren to call the bill from the
committee on the ground that lis
postponement until the short session
meant It's death.
Mr. Qnay said in closing his elo-
Quent appeal:
Mr. President, the grounds for this
motion have been pretty fully men
toned They are that a postpone
msnt of this bill by the committee on
territories until the next session Of
congress will defeat it; that the mo
ton is not novel nor revolutionary,
nor discourteous to the committee.
but is the usual remedy for the exist
ing conditions; that no extended con
sideration is necessary. the bill hav-
ing been approved by the Republi-
can and Democratic national conven-
tions Of 1900, and afterwards al the
presidential election of 1900 by the
entire American people. 1t has also
been demonstrated that these terri
tories have reached the full stature
of states, needing only our legislative
baptism, and that they are as Spend
idly equipped for statehood as any
territory ever accepted into this un-
ion.
Every senator in this chamber who
has resided in territory recognizes
the difference between the conditions

Advancement Of civic energies, the
stimulus to corporate and business
