A FRONTIER FARCE
Rev. D. A. Sanford Tells Some
Things About Indian Farming
in the Southwest.
Indians Lease Their Farms With
Government Farmers Acting
as Rental Agents.

THE postal scandals are insig-
nificant in comparison with the frauds
in the Indian service" said Rev. D. A.
Sanford Of Bridgeport, Okla, for nine
years Episcopal missionary to the
Cheyennes and Arapahoes.
Mr.. Sanford and James A. Peterson
came originally from neighboring
farms near Alderley.. Dodge county,
Wis. On his return to his work in the
territory Mr.. Sanford is visiting his
old comrade. Tomorrow he will
leave for Bridgeport.
Abuses in the Indian service affect
ing the tribes named are such that
Mr.. Sanford argues that they must ex-
i iGa 20 to o' get ths departm nse
aroused on the subject leads Mr.. San
ford to believe that the only way to
get relief is thru publicity.
Following repeated attempts to in
terest the Indian bureau, Inspector
James Mclaughlin was sent out, re-
turning with the report that the
charges made by Mr.. Sanford were
absurd and ridiculous. The report
contains also what Mr.. Sanford deems
libels upon himself. This probably
ends the matter unless public senti-
ment Is aroused.
Mr.. Sanford objects, among other
things, to the leasing to white men
of the lands allotted to the cheyenne
and Arapahoe Indians in the western
part of Oklahoma. He says that the
Indians ought to live on their allot-
| ments and become self-supporting, in
stead of which they are paid lease
money and don't work much, so that
not one-fourth of the work done by
| the Indians five years ago is accom-
plished by them now. -
BY fraud Mr.. Sanford means that
| the Indian farmers hired by the
| or0x ~
art of tilling the soil, act rather as
rental agents, while the government
teachers fail to accomplish the .pur-
pose for which they are sent out.
After reciting charges made by him
self and others against the Indian
agent In his locality, Major G. w. H.
Stouch, and the attack upon himself
report, Mr.. Sanford said to-day: ~.
| Il consider the present condition of
| the Indian service very disgraceful.
The government has men employed as
farmers to lead the Indians to farm
ing and to settle on lands. They are
agents, nominally for the widows and
orphans who cannot work their lands.
Practically the land of strong, able
bodied Indians is leased the same as
that of others. If a white man wishes
a piece of valuable. land he goes to a
| SO-CdlIeu IdiulSi, ll1e price Is agreed
on and the lease made out. The In
dian is then told to sign the lease
The inference is given that the gov
eminent Is trying to prevent the lease
while the practice is the opposite.
"Government reports should not be
relied upon as to the amount Of farm.
ing done by the Indians. This is how
it is commonly done: An Indian hires
a white man to pillow his land and put
in the crop. The bulk. of the work is
done by the white man. Such cases
commonly go into reports as crops
raised by Indian labor AS one OF
the white men living on a farm nea,
the Indians said to me: The whole
system is a farce demanding reform.

Iron-Ox Tablets cure headache by
assisting digestion and regulating the
bowels. ?
Remember, Iron-Ox Tablets are not
purgative, or cathartic in their effect;
they are tonic-laxative; they cure by
building up the entire system. Pur-
gatives and cathartics give only tenn
porary relief by violent and injurious
action. They do far more harm than
good.
The result does not come as rapidly
as with violent purgatives or cathartics
but it comes to stay. There is no
resulting weakness to fear; and a
course of Iron-Ox Tablets will cure
any trouble arising from indigestion Or
constipation, no matter Of how long
standing.
Anything which shocks the system
into activity is dangerous. Do not ex-
pect immediate perceptible effects
from Iron-Ox Tablets. They produce
a natural, regular building up of all
the functions. This takes a little time,
but a successful result is absolutely
certain.
Do not confound Iron-Ox Tablets
with liquid preparations which depend
upon drug disguised alcohol for i'm
mediate effect, and which create a
habit which is nothing more nor less
than alcoholism. Iron-Ox Tablets
build up the system naturally-they
cannot create q "habit."

NO FEAR OF A PANIC
View Of President Of American Bankers
....5. " Association. 49,.

II have no fears at all for the financial
future of the country" said President
Caldwell Hardy of the American Bankers
association, who stopped at Minneapolis
yesterday on his way to San Francisco
and the annual meeting of the bankers
association. 1.-THE balance Is pretty GER
tain to be maintained between those that
want to risk everything and those that
are too conservative. In fact, the finan-
cial condition of the United States can be
correctly described as better now than
ever before. The principal trouble has
been the er-promotion Of certain bust
ness interests. Should this continue, we
may experience a natural DEPRESSION, but
not panic. The steel companys stocks
are a prominent example of what may
come from overpromotion; yet that is
a natural development from uncommonly
prosperous times"

Land Fraud in Idaho.

A Washington dispatch says: The
attention OF the Interior Department
has been called to the fact that ex-
tensive fraudulent timber operations
are going on ON the North and Little
Fork of the Occur d'Alene River, in
Idaho, and that timber worth thou
sands of dollars is being cut by per-
sons who are operating without a
shadow of right. The charges are
supported by affidayits of number
of persons who profess to have per-
sonal knowledge Of the fact.
1t is charged that numerous fctic-
ious homestead entries are being
filed in the Coeur d Alene land Office
for the sole purpose of permitting
the supposed entrymen to strip the
land of it's timber. When the timber
is gone the entries are abandoned.
So bold are the timber men alleged
to be that actual settlers who have
sought to acquire timber land in this
vicinity have been bluffed out by in
dividuals in the employ of the ring.
In many instances the lumbermen
are cutting the timber from lands
that are not even covered by a filing
OF any sort, and where there has not
been even pretense at holding 8
possessory right to the land.
II is also charged that these fraud
ulent operations extend to schoo
sections. 1t is expected that the de-
partment will take early action look
ing to ascertaining the facts anc
shutting off these fraudulent opera
tons.

WHEAT IS LOWER.
Only Seventy one N ow in Corvallis
q Market Weaker Everywhere.

Wheat has taken a tumble. 1t is
but II in the Corvallis market now.
The decline from 73 came two or
three days ago. For the present at
least, the many farmers who sold at
rs are congratulating themselves.
The few who held for a higher
figure when it was rs cannot but be
disturbed in mind, because the geus
eral tone of the market is not sug.
gestive of Immediate recovery. The
price at Salem and Albany is 10;
in Portland 78, in Chicago II. San
Francisco is now the best wheat
market in the country. The price
there is IS, or eight cents better
than Chicago and seven better than
Portland.
Millers say there is no particular
cause tor the lower prices. save
that mills everywhere have secured
supplies, and are no longer bidders
in the market. Immediately after
harvest sales, there is usually a
du1lness in the market. in which
prices are wont to suffer, In the
present situation it is millers most
1y that suffer by the decline.
Farmers generally in Benton
have sold. Most of them parted
with their crops as soon as the
market went TO rs. some of them
selling even before their crops were
threshed.
