1000 APPLICANTS

Muskogee, l T., Feb. 10.-The
Indian agent sta es that the re-
moval of restrictions is getting
under way at last and that there
is a good deal of activi y in that
line now. Few people are aware
that the ave age is about six or
seven per day. This is rapidly
increasing.
All told there have b, en- 1900
applications to have the restric-
tons removed. The was a
tremendous rush at first, and
these applications, too, were
nearly all from incompetent In
dians who knew very little about
what they were doing. Then,
too, the machinery was not in
operation and things moved very
s owly indeed. So great was the
number of applicants who were
undoubtedly not qualified to
transact their own business that
the secretary of interior consid-
cred for a long time the advisa-
bility Of turning down all appi-
cations. ut one time there were
1890 apple tions sent to the
secretary. They were ell turned
down and returned. That
checked the work of grafters who
we're getting ignorant Indians to
make application 70 have the re-
strictions removed.
The applicants now are Of the
better class OF Indians. They
are school teachers, small mer-
chants and of little Indian blood,
though the restrictions have been
removed from a good many full
bloods who are we'll known to be
competent to handle their own
affairs. The agent thinks it will
be but a short time when the
average will be ten a day whose
applications will be approved and
from that time on il will be a
question of how rapidly the ap-
dlications can be handled by the
department.

Corporation Abuse.

Fake corporations in Illinois with
imaginary capital should be investi
gated. The system of issuance OF Ger.
tificates of incorporation To alleged in.
corpOrators with alleged capital is a
bad one. II is a valuable asset for
the bogus corporations which work
on the people of the state. The Hi
nois Legislature should take vigorous
steps not only to govern corporations.
but TO enact such legislation as will
remedy the lax system of incorpora-
ton.
Gov. Dencen in his initial Communi-
cation to the legislature at his inaug-
uration. called attention 10 this evil
and it is vitally important 10 Illinois
that necessary Legislation be enacted
without faltering or delay.

Practical Philanthropy.

Andrew Carnegie's check for the re-
lief of the Oberlin bank victims marks
a new departure in practical philan-
thropy- And for new forms of prac-
teal philanthropy there is a healthy
demand To the student whose slen-
der funds for the school year were
swept away. To- the widows whose
homes and incomes were taken from
them. to the orphans whose inheri-
tanccs were lost. To the workingmen
whose savings were sacrificed. this
substantial relief must come as n YER
liable god-send. emphasizing the fact
that human sympathy and generosity
have not persisted from the earth alto
gether.
In taking public notice OF the sad
condition at ObeTlin and in seeking TO
relieve II Andrew Carnegie exhibits
something considerably more than mere
generosity. In il there is heroism of
the highest order. Owing 10 the pecu-
liar use OF Carnegie's name in connec-
ton with the circumstances leading TO
the Oberlin's banks collapse. his act
for the relief OF innocent sufferers calls
for finer grade Of moral courage.
The Carnegie fund for providing
medals for heroes has new claimant
One Of its biggest and brightest med.
ais Is due To Carnegie himself.

An Ex-Governor in Print.

Ex-Governor w. J. Mcconnell
has rushed into print to attack the
Republican state administration
and his fellow townsman, Burton
l.. French. The burden OF the cx-
Governors interview is to the effect
that the state board of equalization
has not raised the assessment of
railroads sufficiently high. The
ass essment on the transcontinental
lines was $4,000 per mile last year.
This year it has been placed at
$1,000. In as much as these same
roads were assessed at only $4,000
per mile during the Mcconnell ad-
ministration, the ex-Governor's
sayings lose much of their force,
and suggest that if Governor Good
ing had appointed the Ex-Governor
to the position he sought, that of
Immigration Commissioner, a place
worthily filled by Col. Allan Mil
Ter, that Governor Gooding would
not now be an object of his wrath.
