Seoul. Dec. 18.-The attitude Of the
Russians here indicates a determina-

foothold in Korea. The radicals In

WOULD CHANGE THE LAW
INDIAN COMMISSIONER JONES
SAYS TT SHOULD NOT BE MEG
ESSARY TO GET INDIANS CON-
SENT no SELL HIS LAND.

! SENT no SELL HIS LAND.
From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,
Washington.
Washington, Dec 18.-Indian Com
missioner Jones has declared himself
in favor of a change Of policy in the
disposal of Indian lands He would
not require the consent Of the Indians
for the sale of reservation lands. a
policy and practice which has pre-
vailed for years. '1N.-'
II believe the time has come when there
should be a change in the governments
policy regarding the sale Of Indian lands, -
std the commissioner to-day "The In
dams should be paid a fair price for their
land, but as they are the nations wards
we should treat them as other wards are
| treated let those In authority dispose Of
their property in the best way for their in
terests, without going thru the formality
of getting their consent.
| 1T is almost impossible, under present
conditions, to secure the consent of the
Indians to an agreement for the sale Of
their lands. This was shown in the cases
of the Red Lake Indians in Minnesota and
the Rosebuds in South Dakota Inspect
ors were sent to both places, but failed
to get the consent Of the Indians because
Of the opposition of certain interests. The
objections urged against both these treat
les were valid, but are used as an illus
tration of the fact that there is always
| some obstacle in the way of a consumma,-
tion Of the sale when consent of the In
dians is required"
Tradition in this office and in the in
terror department, require that the con-
sent Of the Indians should be obtained
but owing to changed conditions we
should break away from this rule. Con-
gress should provide for the allotment Of
80 or l6O acres each to all Indians and for
the sale Of the remainder Of the lands at
q fair alton. SnCh a chQnpa of W
cannot come too. soon, In my Judgment,
for the good Of the Indians, the govern
ment and the white people,

William K. Johnson, colored, died
at Paw Paw at the reputed age of 1l2
years. His children have all died,
but he leaves s grandchildren, q
great-graDdchildren and 43 great
great-grandchildren. He said he re-
membered distinctly incidents Of the
War of 1912.
Ernest B. Morris, late editor of the
Harrison County Herald, at Clarks-
burg, has been arrested on warrant
charging him with violating the pos
tai laws. He was released under his
own recognizaDce to appear before
Judge Jackson for trial in October.
The alleged offense was the mailing Of
his paper containing what the Federal
grand jury believed to be indecent
matter. Mr.. Morris prints very
lively paper, and we presume his ar
rest was caused by some persons whom
he had offended.
The last Legislature passed a parole
law providing that all the prisoners
except those under life sentence may

that prisoners under certain conditions
may be paroled and returned to their
homes, but must report to the institu-
ton monthly. Should they be subject
TO complaint for any violation of law
or misconduct during the provisional
release they may be arrested and re-
turned to the institution.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you must
take internal remedies. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Cure is not quack med
icine. 1t was prescribed by one of the
best physicians in this country for
years, and is a regular prescription. 1t
is composed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination OF the two in
gradients is what produces such wor
derful results in curing Catarrh. Sc

Wants to Marry an Actress.

The San Francisco Call OF last
Sunday, in an article on the suit OF
Stephen B. Elkins. Jr., son of Senator
Elkins, of West Virginia, for the hand
of Edna Wallace Hopper, the actress,
Gays:
HE has been here for the last FIVE
days. His temporary abode is local
restaurant, where, however, he spends
very little time, for he ia devoted to
to the object of his affection and is
often across the bay at the country
residence of the pretty actress and
heiress. That young Elkins is deter
mined to wed Miss Hopper and that
she is willing to accept the name and
companionship he offers, no one who
has enjoyed the company of the young
couple will gainsay. In fact, it is
understood that their betrothal is GER
tain to follow the first assurance that
the younger Elkins receives from his
father of parental coudonation for his
matrimonial step. Mr.. Elkins, Jr.,
expects to remain here until Miss
Hopper is ready to return to the East,
which will not be for several weeks.
Some time ago it was reported that
Senator Elkins had warned his son
that a marriage with the actress would
not be condoned. Mr.. Elkins, Jr.,
has since tried to overcome the objec-
ton of his parent, and in this endeav-
or he is said to have been assisted by
Miss Hopper. whose consent to a
marriage is reported to be conditioned
upon the success of the young NAB in
hi. pleadings with his father"

That part of American prosperity
represented by dealings in Wall street
has had serious setback during the
past week or two. Stocks and bonds
have been steadily declining, and vast
sums have been lost as a result of the
fall in prices. Several well-known
firms failed last Friday, and great I'M
easiness has been felt. 1t is said that
the slump causes loss of $l00,000,000
to John D. Rockefeller, and those stocks
represented by j. P. Morgan went
away down also.
These facts show what an insecure
foundation there is for most Of the
stocks and bonds, and there may be a
fearful crash at almost any time.
