NOT HELPED BY SUTHERLAND.
cit cannot be doubted that Senator
Shoots activity in Utah politics re-
Gently has not helped his cause in the
senate. All press dispatches from
Utah declare that George Sutherland
is to become the next United States
Senator from that state, because Of
his having yielded to the denomina
tion of Smoot and the Mormon
church. Sutherland, who was the
Utah Representative in the Fifty
seventh Congress, was formerly an
opponent of Smoot, but made up
with the later when kearns and
Smoot fell out. The Senatorship was
the reward held out.
Sutherland, while represented as
Mormon by the Mormon adherents,
is so dominated by the hierarchy as
to be Thoroughly subservient to
church influences and subject to Nor
monl dictation in political matters.
His Endorsement by Smoot just at the
time the senate inquiry is to be re-
sumed is looked upon as further evil
dence of Mormon defiance, similar to
Smoot' participation last summer in
the election of self-confessed poly
gamist to it with him in the counsel
Of apostle of the Mormon church. "

Restriction of Notaries Public in the
Departmental Service

The President has directed that the fol-
lowing draft of an order be issued by the
heads OF all the executive departments in
this city for the guidance of employees:
ut is hereby ordered that hereafter no
officer, clerk or employee in the executive
service of the government, who is also
notary public, small charge or receive any
compensation whatever for performing any
notarial act for officer, clerk OF en-
pioye of the government, in his official ca
pacity, or in any matter in which the gov
eminent is interested. or for any person.
when. in the case of such person the act
is performed burning the hours of such no.
tary'S service to their government. Dis
obedience of this order shall be ground for
immediate dismissal from the service
This order affects large number of en-
ployes in each government department,
there being a notary public in nearly every
division and bureau of the government in
this city. Many of these officers have made
considerable money out of their judicial
Office There are several instances where
government notaries have made as much IL
not more than their regular salaries from
! notarial fees received from government
business. The practice has been for these
notaries to charge fee of so cents for each
acknowledgment of signature to gov
ernment contract, and a notary in the Navy
Department has frequently attested as
many as twenty such signatures q day.
This business is particularly heavy in offices
dealing with contracts for government sup
plies like the Quartermaster generals Office,
the naval paymaster generals Office the
ordnance bureaus, the construction bureaus
and the supply divisions OF all the depart
ments. A notary in the Navy Department

ing performances given by a band of In
dams in New York in 1861 He was col
lector of Indian pictures as a boy, and
even then began to study the life and hab-
its of the red man. When he had oppor-
tunity he visited the reservations in New
York state and talked with the Indians
there.
1t was not until 1886 that he had chance
to see the western Indian in his home
In that year Mr.. Leupp made his first ex-
tended trip through the west. He went
as far the Pacific coast and spent sew
eral months in visiting the different Indian
reservations and studying the people there
on. In 1889 he made another western trip
an continued the investigations begun
three years before. His knowledge of the
Indian at that time attracted attention and
as member of the Indian Rights Asso-
cation and later as a member of the board
OF Indian commissioners he frequent
ly consulted by members of Congress re-
garding Indian appropriations. The first
time the government took advantage of
Mr.. Leupps attachments as d student of
the Indian was in 1885 when he went to
the Southern Ute reservation as a conf
Dental agent o. the Secretary of the In
terror, Mr.. Hoke Smith. during the con-
Sideration of the treaty by means of which
the lands of these Indians We're opened up
for settlement. Mr. Leupp acted in the
dual capacity of representative of Secre-
tary Smith and of the Indian Rights AS
ISOLATION. In the same year Mr.. Leupp
was appointed a member of the board of
Indian commissioners by President Cleve-
land.
In 1896 Mr.. Leupp made an extended tour
of the Indian reservations of Wisconsin,
Minnesota, the Dakotas, Iowa. Kansas
eastern Colorado and Indian territory He
visited the schools and reservations and
talked with many of the most important
chieftains. He was recognized by the In
dams as their friend, and was given their
whole confidence. In 1897 he again spent
several months in the west, visiting Arizona
and New Mexico, and making himself thor
oughly conversant with the life of the In
dams of these territories.
In the past seven years Mr.. Leupp's knowl-
edge has been frequently made use of by
the government, and last year. when charges
of grave nature were preferred against
the Indian officials in charge of the Kiowa,
Comanche and Apache Indians in Okla
homa. President Roosevelt sent Mr.. Leupp
into Oklahoma to make an investigat ton
Mr.. Leupp remained in the territory two
months, examining witnesses and irlvesti-
eating charges. His report generating the
accused officials, is one of the most ex-
haustive documents of the kind ever pre-
sented to the government. He carefully
considered each charge and gave the gst
of the testimony presented. The report has
been published a public document by
order of Congress. Last summer Mr. Leupp
spent his time visiting his old friends among
| the Indians of Indian territory and the
central west. He was selected for Indian
commissioner in November.
