Washington Special: THE grave

up said M. j. Bentley, for many years
an Indian agent In Indian Territory.
MIR Bentley, who was connected with
the Indian service more closely than
any other agent ever was, believes y a
the policy Of this nation toward its
sborigines has been a progressive crime
of generations. In this he does not dls-
agree with many other people; but Mr.
Bentley enforces his views with some
striking statements.
Mexico has about $4,000, 900 people"
he said. about 1000, 600 of them are
whites; the rest are Indians. They have
made IL one Of the most prosperous
countries, IL Is developing In wealth, in-
1elligence. culture, everything, ut a
wonderful rate. Most OF the people are
Indians. Indians are the bone and
sinew OF Mexico. The country has had
little white immigration for a century
till in very recent years. 1T is prac-
tically n great Indian republic. We
have read OF the power and the glory
or the mystic civilization of the Monte
zumas; but Mexico today is a greater
Indian nation than the MonteZumas
made of the ancient Mexico; IL is
greater han the Peru of PiZarro; and
II Is scarcely less an Indian country
than either of those was when the
spanish found them.

The Coffee

Please remember we never say ordi-
nary coffee hurts every one.
Some people use 1t regularly and
seem strong enough to Withstand Its
attacks, but there Is misery and dis
ease in store for the ia or woman
who persists in Its use when nature
protests, by heart weakness, stomach
and bowel troubles, kidney disease,
weak eyes, or general nervous prostra-
ton. The remedy Is obvious. The drug
caffeine, contained in all ordinary cof-
fee. must be discontinued absolutely or
the disease will continue In spite OF
any medicine and will grow worse.
1t Is easy to leave OFF he old-fashion

Coffee. for In II one finds a pleasing hot

Cross Breed a Failure.

The Mexican Indian is commonly q
full-blood. There are few Of them in
the United States. You can ride across
Indian Territory, 225 miles, and be
lucky il you see q full-blood Indian.
The government has encouraged white
men To marry squaw wives by giving
them the property benefits of such re-
latiOnship TO the tribes, and as a re-
suit the so-called Indians are half and
quarter bloods. The cross has been a
failure.
The tribes that were transported to
Indian Territory We're already well on
the way TO civilization. The territory
was their ruin. There were newspapers
printed there I'm the Cherokee language
almost as soon as in Illinois. and long
before there were newspapers printed
in English within the boundaries of
what is now Iowa. There were schools
and churches and legislative govern
meuts of the tribes. The Indians would
have developed and become a strong
and rich people If they had been let
alone, But they were not let alone.
