field decimated.
The direct cause of the famine is
a prolonged drOuth, which has re-
suited in the almost entire loss of
the harvests Of grains, olives and
oranges, and in lessening of quail
ity and quantity of the wines.
Indirectly, the magnitude of the
disaster that has overtaken Anda-
lusia is due to the medieval agricul.
tural methods of the peasants. The
Andalusians are thriftless and I'M
enterprising and they till their soil
under hardly better conditions than
when their country was under the
dominion of the Moors. The land is
owned by wealthy Spaniards who
live either abroad or in Madrid, and
who squeeze the peasants heart

TAHLEQUAH, l. T., Oct. 9.-In'
dian Territory, home OF three
quarters of million of free, intelli-
gent Americans has an amazing
government. Probably the sultan
of Jolo could beat it. Even zemst-
vo would better it.
This scheme of government is a
tumble of rule by Indian agents,
federal judges with unheard OF jul
risdiction and Indians; of federal
and Indian law with a flavor Of the
Arkansas statutes.

SEVILLE. Spain. Oct. 9.-For
three months the district of Anda-
1usia, In the south of Spain, having
an area about as large as Illinois,
has been in the grip of one of the
worst famines the country has ever
known
Deaths are occurring at the rate
of more than 900 day.
Since the famine became intense
10000 people have died directly
from staEyetion, and $4,000 have
succumbeSe4o disease contracted or
aggravsi,'d by lack Of nourishment.
The famine area has population
of 100000. and of these 100000
are poor peasants directly affected
by the disaster. The prisons are
overlooking with peasants who have
committed petty crimes to compel
the authorities to arrest them and
supply them with food in the jails.
Hundreds of bands of peasants
roam about the country. pillaging
farms and country houses to obtain
food for themselves and their fami-
lies. Butcher shops, grocery stores
and bakeries in the towns and cities
have been repeatedly rifled by hun

Secretary Hitchcock's subordi-
mates have a company of Indian po-
lice who enforce the departments
orders but have no authority in
criminal cases.
The towns have self-government
to a large extent. the Arkansas mu-
nicipal laws having been extended
over the territory by act of con
gress. This permits the whites to
govern themselves in the cities, but
the law does not give them power
in many things necessary for the
development of a community.
Eight federal judges preside over
the only courts in the territory.
They have to pass upon everything
from the probating of wills to suits
involving millions. They preside at
the trials of criminals ranging all
the way from "bootleggers" to MUIR
derers.
Outside the cities there is no pub
lie school system. The thousands of
whites living there. are obliged to
organize private schools or send
their children to Indian schools and
pay for the privilege The Indian
schools are managed by officials OF
the five civilized tribes in co-opera-
ton with government supervisors.

ances compared to new midair
speciality which was given its first
and successful test at Sellsville
recently In the presence Of a few
friends of Nick Howard, the in

The act in brief Is the riding OF
an automobile down a platform,
constructed in the shape Of an In.

of the platform, for distance Of
10 feet, swings on a pivot and when
the auto strikes trigger almost at
the end, huge spring is released.
The front OF the platform then
shoots upward, throwing the auto
into the air distance of 81 feet.

maintain separate schools for COL

1t will be the duty of congress
next winter to provide a new sys-
tenn. The tribal governments will
be dissolved next March and their
control of the schools will end at
that time. In the absence of legis-
lation the country districts would
be entirely without schools except
such as might be established
through private enterprise. In the
cities the educational facilities are
of the best. The most imposing
buildings in many of the new towns
are those provided for school pur-
poses, and they will compare favor
ably with the school houses in state
towns of the same size.
All the money due the Indians,
singly or collectively. from the sale
of lands, coal or gas royalties,
leases or the tribal tax pass through
the hands of ID. III. Kelsey, the In
dian agent. He has 100 assistants.
