Second: Mr.. Dawes haa served
his country with marked wisdom

Third: II was a fitting honor
that when age required him 10

man Of this Commission, choice
made by president not OF his
own political party, and that thus
the Indians. the children, as II
we're, OF bis old age, should still

that Congress, without dissent
from any quarter, gave to this

Fourth: In The death Of Mr..

OUR VAST INTERNAL COMMERCE.
The American people generally have
no conception Of the ~vastness of the in
ternal commerce of the United States.
They are made familiar from time to
time with the foreign trade of the
country, but it is only once in ten
years that they are permitted TO be-
come acquainted with the enormous
business that is lone within our own
borders. 1t will undoubtedly be a sur
prise to most of our people to know
that the domestic trade Of the United
States is larger than that Of any
other country of the world by hun
dreds of millions Of dollars and is equal
to the entire international commerce
Of the world.
Yet that is the fact according to Off.
cial statistics. These place the internal
commerce of the country at twenty
thousand millions Of dollars, in com
parison with which u foreign com
merce is a mere bagatelle. The aston
ishing figures include only one trans
action in each article produced, while
in fact a very large number OF the
articles produced pass through the
hands of several "middlemen" between
those of the producer and those of the
consumer. If that fact be consid.

Is less han it should be. The manu-.
features of the United States are now

WATER as n Fuel.
sprlngfeld Republican,

Springfield Republican,
A Washington inventor Of repute claims
to have perfected a device by which pure
water can be burned and made to yield as
intense heat as is wanted in stoves and
furnaces. Practical application Of the same
principle is apparently found in the burn
ing Of ashes mixed with water which has
been resorted to by householders here
abouts during the fuel famine. Such a
mixture, pasted over a strong bed Of live
GOALS, has been found to burn a long time
and give out great heat. Another illustra>
tion is often Observable in great fires,
where water, IL sprinkled on In limited
quantity. rather adds to than quenches the
blaze. But IL this inventor has a device by
which water is decomposed and its gases
fired without the application of %extraneous
heat, he is in the way of making his name
known to future generations.
