other day, "are all higher In market
value than for many years past. It IL
simply q result Of increased commercial
demand and the world has caught UP
with the supply. You will understand
that the great bonanza silver mines Of
the world have been worked out. There
was a time when the supply was i'm
-1nensely larger than the demand and
the price therefore was depressed. With
the practical exhaustion of the bonanza
mines the production was brought
down to the demand. I do not mean
that the total quantity produced Ia less,
for 1t il larger than ever before. But
relative to the demand the supply II
less and therefore the market value il
greater.
II know of no silver mines that
promise to take the place Of the for
mer bonanza properties. unless 1t be in
Peru and Ecuador. Our people have
just begun to go there and take hold
of the prospects But 50 far as the
existing conditions are concerned. the
silver market is satisfactory to all who
own mines.
Most persons probably are ignorant
Of the fact, but it ia true that most of
the silver produced today Is base metal
separated from other metals such as
lead. Not long ago this silver residue
was not worth much. but today it Is
an important part Of the return made
from ore that contains several kinds
Of metallic value"

SCHOOL 6 LANDS
.0ovsrnor 0oodiNs Has Conferences
With the President,
Warrington

6olSe, DEC. %. A WaShinHton
special to the Statesman says:
AZ result Of . conference Of Gov
ernor Gooding. the president and Gif-
ford Pinchot. the administration will
probably advocate the passage Of a bill
permitting Idaho to relinquish to the
government all school land sections
embraced in the forest reserve and Sc
lect IN lieu . compact tract of equal
area. In case the state wishes timber
lands. Governor Cooling asks that it
may take slice Of the best timber out
Of some forest reserve. but possibly the
state will take only grasing lands.
This 10 In pursuance Of an agreement
reached between Mr.. Pinchot and the
governor when the former was in
Boise during the early fall. At that
time they discussed all phases of the
1orset reserve question. the methods,
regulations and plans of the service
being explained. while the governor
brought up such aspects Of the matter
- had suggested themselves to his
mind az being likely to do injustice to
the state. -
This matter Of. the status of the
school actions included in forest re-
serves was one to which special atten.
ton was paid. These are sections 1e
ana Is, granted to the state for school
purposes. It wae pointed out by the
1overnor that It would be difficult at
pest ana probably lmpracticable for
the state to derive any benefit from
these scattered sections in cases in
which they were embraced In reserves
The timber on them. would have to be
solo when there was purchaser, but
the only purchaser would be the COM
pany that might have purchased from
the government the right to cut from
the surrounding reserve. Moreover, it
was pointed out that there were not
available lands that would bring the
minimum price Of SO an acre.
Mr. Pinchot recognized the force of
the governors argument. The point
was one he had likewise thought of,
but the presentation Of the subject
made ~ the sovernor showed the po-
sltton IN which the state would be
placed more clearly. He at once adj
United the governor was entirely cor
rect and said the department would
make arrangements to protect the state
In the matter. It was not the intention
OF the forest service. he said to work
hardship upon individuals nor to de-
tract from the value Of any grant made
to, the state for the benefit Of it's
schools or other institutions.
Out Of this talk grew the suggestion
that, the state be permitted to secure a
solid body OF timber land in lieu Of the
school sections, and Mr.. Pinchot pledg-
ed thu service to use its influence to
bring about such IN arrangement.

NEWS OF THE WEEK IN A CON-
DENSED FORM.
Indians in a Sad Plight-Sissetohs
and Wahpetons Are on the Down
Grade-Too Much Money Makes
Them Indolent and irresponsible

President Roosevelt has authorized
payment of 100000 to the Sisseton ana
Wahpeton Indians of South Dakota 10
be distributed per capita. The money
is to be taken from the principal OF their
trust fund now in the treasury ana us
tribution is to be made on account OF
failure of their crops for the last TWO
years. 1t has been represented that
there is great necessity of funds to pur-
chase seed and the condition of the Old
and HELPLESS Indians is said to be very
deplorable.
Back of this statement, which was
given out at the White House, is one OF
the most pathetic stories of gradual ae-
scent into ~debauchery n irresponsible
ity that has come to the attention OF the
Indian office for years. Ten years ago
the Sisseton and Wahpeton tribe of In
dams had 81, 500, 800 i'll the treasury
drawing interest at 5 per cent. The
tribe was self-suppOrting; they showed
progression and the future seemed eX-
ceedingly bright that they would become
good citizens of the commonwealth or
South Dakota. But influences were eX-
erted and gradually the Indian officers
were cognizant that powerful interests
were at work to secure the withdrawal
of a certain amount of the Indians trust
FUND from the treasury for direct clrcu-
lation among the tribe. y hundred
thousand dollars was withdrawn here
and 100000 there until there now re-
mains in the treasury of the United
States but half the amount to the cred
it Of the Sisseton and Wahpeton band
1879 in number-there was ten years
ago.
BY reason of per capita circulation of
the amount withdrawn from the treasury
at different times these Indians ceased
to be sel~f-supporting, and according to
an official of the Indian Office they have
grown worthless, good for nothing and
lazy. They are d~runkardS and gam
blers and the tribe that gave much prom
Use to show the beneticent results of
careful handling have drifted back to
responsibility and almost Savagery
Speaking further along this line, an
official said that it was the consensus of
thoughtful men that the downward ca
reer of the Indian tribes was due to the
pernicious practice of withdrawing funds
from the treasury and giving to every
man, woman and child a proportion of
the total amount set aside for diStribu-
ton purposes. 1t tended to make them
indolent and wasteful and in cOnse-
quence the drift from responsibility to
degradation was easy.
