GIVEN DOLLAR BILLS
HOW CANADIAN INDIANS RE.
cElvE THEIR ALLOWANCES
Agent Distributes 100000 Among
Tribesmen Each Year but Carries
Only $30,0oo-How He
Does u.

Seattle, Wash.-Several years ago
the Canadian government took from
the tribes of Indians about Athabasca
lake and river large tract of land
and in payment for the same 1t gives
each year five dollars to each Indian
and s25 to the chiefs in one dollar
bills.
The reason for this Is that the In
dams dwelling in the district do not
know the value of money. A paper
dollar looks to him about the same as
blank piece of paper to baby.
Should the payment be made in sill.
yer, the simple minded child of the
wilderness would punch hole in 1t
and wear II about his neck and thus
great deal of money would be taken
from circulation. Should payment be
made in one dollar bill the Indian Is
liable to lose it.
Once each year a representative OF
the Canadian government makes a
trip through the country and pays the
Indians. On this trip he takes 10000
in one dollar bills and will probably
pay out more than 100000. The
natural question from civilization is,
How does he do It?
As the Indian knows nothing about
the value of money his method of
financial trade is on the value of
skins. Everything he buys is reckoned
by skins, and when one talks dollars
to him, his face has the expression of
a blank cartridge. Fortunately for the
government. the Hudson Bay COM
pany has secured the entire conf
dence of the Indians during the cen
fury of dealing with them, and the
money paid to the Indians finds its
way into the trading posts of the com.
pany.
Here Is how the government pay.
master does his phenomenal stunt OF
paying 100000 or more with only
5000 in his pocket. He goes direct
to a district inhabited by perhaps q.
900 or 5000 Indians; here he will pay
from $4,000 to $4,000 in treaty
money" Each Indian and his family
is given the Ave one dollar bills in
payment for his surrender of the land,
and each chief his $25.
After making this payment the paJ'
master takes rest for short time at
the Hudson Bay post nearest the pay
station. Within a few days the In
dams have made a line to the post
and there purchased whatever looks
good to them. They whack the money
down on to the trading post counter
order something worth perhaps Sc
cents and leave. The company agent
charges the red man with what he has
purchased ant credits him with the
balance Of the Ave dollars, so that In
the future he can trade out the re-
minder of the amount.
Within week from the date OF
paying the treaty money every dollar
Of the amount has been paid into the
trading post. The paymaster gives the
post agent a check for the amount and
starts for the next Indian settlement

Row at a Revival Meetinq.

In town in Maine where there
were frequent revival meetings at one
time a Mr.. Cole was preacher. There
was a man named Winslow who did
not know as much as some whole
families, but was always first to get
pious' at these revival meetings
There was also a man by the name OF
Voter, a fine and pious man.
During one meeting Winslow and
Voter had a quarrel. Winslow said II
Voter got up to speak he should speak
also. Voter got up, and Winslow
jumped up, and Elder Cole, to STOP
the rumpus, commenced to sing Tell
Me the Old. Old, Story" Winslow
shook his fist in Elder Coles face and
said: You tell your old, old story,
and I'll be id II | don't tell mine. "

CHOOSING OUR OWN TROUBLES
Writer Looks at chrcnie Bothers In a
New Way.

We are apt TO quarrel with our
troubles under the mistaken idea that
they have been set upon us and not
realizing that we have all along un.
consciously been appropriating them
to ourselves. Every one has a choice
OF troubles, and 1t depends largely
upon himself as to the ones he shall
select This being so. let US take
thought of tomorrow, that we may
suffer as we choose and not blindly.
There is a set of married troubles,
and one for bachelors only. Which
will you have? Yours is the choice.
A baby is a great trouble. Is II
well to have him? Is 1t wise to take
him on, or will some other trouble
equally formidable be better for us in
the long run?
Any amount OF trouble may be
caused by too much money. Shall we
run the risk or not?
A kiss has often caused no end Of
trouble. And 1t is likely to lead to
others.
Let us have patience and take time
to make our selection. The worst OF
II is that by the time we have learned
the standing of various troubles, their
nature and ways, it is too late to
change. And we cannot begin all
over again. So that in the end we
may be saddled with troubles that We
would willingly exchange for others.
IL we had only known about them
earlier.-Tom Mason in Puck.

These slides are strips of varying

The highest point of this declivity is
studded with boulders of varying size
which the climber must pull himself
over. This part of the slope is so

that slides and gives way under the
foot of the climbers. A stone dis

Tuesdays Great Victory.

| The Journals telegraph columns tell
this morning the welcome story OF
yesterdays great Republican victory
Throughout the country. The main in
in the contests in New York and Mas
sachusetts and the election Of Hughes
and Guild, with the accompanying de-
feat of Hearst and Moran, is a matter
for sincere rejoicing on the part of
good citizens everywhere. 1t is a
triumph Of honest men and of sound
principles over demagogues and hy-
steria. 1t is a splendid victory of the
forces of safety and sanity over the
hosts Of rottenness and riot. 1t is a
demonstration that the American peo-
pie are still fit to govern themselves.
Massachusetts reelected Governor
Guild in handsome fashion and the
Republicans of the old Bay State did a
days work to be very proud of. In
New York the victory of Hughes is
decisive, but Hearst was not over
whelmed by the avalanche of votes
that he deserved to have been buried
under. The menace Of his candidacy
was more acute than was generally
realized at a distance. For years he
has been spending his millions there,
making extravagant promises and
pledges that no man could keep and
sowing the seeds of class hatred,-all
to further his political ambitions. An
army of honest dupes with the masses
of the ignorant, the political tramps
and everything that is bad and dan
gerOus gathered under the Hearst ban
ner, and in the brief campaign the in
telligent and conservative forces of
honest government had much to con-
tend with. The victory under such
circumstances is notable one and
makes the whole country proud of
New York and grateful to it.
Outside of these two states there
was for the most part the usual apathy
of an "off-year" election. In a few Of
the AZ states. however, where they
voted yesterday there We're local is
/ sues which aroused much interest and
, caused more or less breaking of party
| lines. There were gains here and
losses there but the general results
are wholly satisfactory to the Roose-
welt administration and the Republican
party. The next Congress, like the
past half dozen. will be safely Repub-
| lican and the country stands by Roose-
welt and prosperity. The Democracy
is demoraliZed and debauched and in
no better condition to prevent another
great Republican victory in 1908 than
it was in 1896, 1900 or 1904.
