which homesteads and umos I
claims have been acquired in this
state will not prevail and entry-
men must exhibit entire good
faith in making their selections
and in completing their final
proofs. Actual residence, not
occasional ''stay overnights, !"
will be required. The scandals
being uncovered now in connec-
ton with the grand jury investi-
cations mean a shaking up in
the land Offices of this state and
will result in making frauds in
connection with the public lands
less possible.
| A former official of the land
Office was before the grand jury
recently and it is said that, al
though he merely conducted his
Office as had his predecessors,
there was considerable looseness
in the way matters were carried
out. Although land officials
may have had an inkling that
all was not in thorough accord
with the spirit of the land laws,
when the investigations were
ordered and made, the special
agents III charge of the investi-
cations are said to have proved
recreant to their trust and some
of them are also said to have
been amenable to bribes.
The Interpretation of the land
laws has been far different than
is now to obtain. The custom
in the Northwest has been to
permit too much latitude in COM
pliance with the law and the
present Investigations mean that
the easy acquisition of the pub
lie domain must stop. 1t is be-
lleved that half the land Office
officials who have served in this
state could be indicted for their
slipshod methods of taking proofs
and the readiness with which
they issued receipts. However,
they were guided by precedent,
It IS claimed, and former trustees
of the public domain in similar
positions are said to have LETT be-
hind them no strict interpretation
of the land laws by which to
guide incoming officials.
AS proof of the looseness of
the requirements of land officials
IN this state is a batch of about
40 contests, hearing of which
will begin this week in the Port
land land Office, lately moved
there from Oregon City, and
which will extend through a
large part of the winter. These
contests cover claims in all parts
OF the Oregon City land district,
which are alleged in the ahda-
wits OF contest to be fraudulent
IN that the entrymen never COM
piled with the land laws and
Eever intended to; that they were
governed IN their acts by lorme,
slipshod interpretations of the
land laws and the easy rulings
lot former officials of the land
office. 1t is said there is good
reason for contesting a large mum
Der of entries made in North
western Oregon, which is cover,
ed by the Portland office, and the
same can doubtless be said of the
public lands in the rest of the
state.

Uncle Sam Tries TO Educate Red
Man.

Man.
Report of Miss Estella Reel,
superintendent ct Indian Schools
IN the United States, who attend.
ed the sessions of the Indian
Teachers Institute at the Lewis
and Clark Fair, shows that there
are $50 schools in the United
States, with an enrolment Of
80, 900 students.
The report states that the value
of education to the Indian and
the duty of the Government to
give it to him, has been recogni-
zed, and from the first regular ap
preparation of $40, 900, this sum
has gradually been increased,
until in 1904 it reached more
than 81, 200, 900. Each year
the number of schools and teach
ers has gradually increased, and
there has been a corresponding
annual increase IN the attend
ance of pupils.
Examples to illustrate the good
results that have followed agri-
cultural instruction in many
schools are numerous. In illus
tration of the practical work ac-
complished, that of giving to in
dustrial training, the foremost
place in Indian education Miss
Reel notes that at Mescolero, N.
M, in the past year. the boys
sawed over 70, 900 feet of lum bel
and 1000 shingles, and made
upwards of I2o,oo bricks.
Bathouses have been erected al
2S of the day schools in the Pine
Ridge Reservation, S. D., for
the use of the pupils, a great deal
of the work being performed by
the boys.
The day schools generally
have continued their record OF
good work during the year, and
in methods and results, noticeable
Improvements have been made.
The civilizing and most elevat-
ing influence of these schools up
on the older Indians is a most
important part of their useful
! ness.
The Hampton Instiinte, Va,
IS one of the best equipped man
ual training schools. The re-
cord of returned students is the
most complete in the service,
showing 14o rated excellent, 336
good, I52 fair, AZ poor.
At the Rice Station Boarding
School, Arizona, large amounts
OF garden products are raised by
the 200 fuil-blood Apaches. In
New Mexico, AZ Young men
from the Indian school al
Santa Fe worked ON the San; a
Fe Raiifoad. The Mescaleio
Apaches clipped IS, 500 pounds
OF wool fron their own flock,
which brought them Il cents
per pounu. The 200 Indians on
the Oneida reservation are prac-
lt1cally self-supporting. Miss
i Reel says that the arts and crafts
of the Indian have a far greater
value than is generally known,
and IN many sections of the
country they become eficien
aids to him in earning liveli-
hood. The earnings of the Carl.
isle school, the Oldest and tht
largest, by the pupils, amounted
to about $50, 900 the past year.
j The demand for Indian work
has largely Increased the past
five years. The Flambeau Lum-
Der Company, of Wisconsin,
handled, last year, about 5000
worth Of Indian goods, as againsl
5000 or $500 worth five years
ago.
l More attention has been giver
to the teaching of cooking thar
ever before. Teachers in the
Indian service ind that if They
are to keep abreast OF the times
they must see thatsthe pupils are
instructed in the preparation 0

Of all the diseases known, with

ease is the most fatal. In fact, unless
early and correct treatment is applied,
the weary patient seldom survives.
Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pink

i've study to the subject, and in pro-
ducing her great remedy for woman's
ills-Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound-was careful to see that it
contained the correct combination of
herbs which was sure to control that
fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles.
The Vegetable Compound acts in har-
mony with the laws that govern the
entire female system, and while there
are many so called remedies for kidney
troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. Derangements OF

symptoms as pain or weight in the
