the dominant characteristics of the

The belief is prevalent that Indians
will not work and that the Sioux is in

The Indian will work if offered it at

Today between 400 and 500 Indians

TEXANS" FOR
TAKERS OF CENSUS

Washington, Jan. SIN a message to
the House of Representatives today
President Roosevelt urged that in prep
aration for the work Of taking the next
census 1000 or more additional en-
ployes are needed to be appointed only
after n competitive examination under
the rules; of the civil service commits
sion. He strongly denounced the pat
yrol7age system of making appoint
ments. saying the civil service COM
;nission wa fully capable of securing
"a most efficient force.
Nonconpetitive examinations used IN
selecting the force at Washington in
the last two censuses, the president
said, served only "as a cloak to hide
she nakedness of the spoils sys-
tenn Such examinations, he declared,
were useless as checks upon patronage
appointments. They prevent he
said, the most incompetent from be-
iina appointed, But they do not secure
the appointment of the most compet-
,ant ard they afford no check upon po-
Iitical appointments" The president
said it is idle to say that such exam
nations are fair,
A message from the president was
read i'm the House today urging partici-
ration by the government in the first
pan-American scientific congress to he
held in Santiago, Chile, in the first 10

BOMB EXPLODED
IN KANSAS CITY
BANK; r HURT

Kansas City, Jan. IA bomb ex-
ploded i'll the basement Of the magnifi-
cent three-story marble building of tho
First National bank, Tenth and Balti-
more streets, at noon today. The force
of the explosion vas terrific and caused
much damage. Three persons were I'M
tured, none seriously. There is no clue,

The bank was crowded with Gus.
toners at the time. These, together
with employees, numbering perhaps, $50
persons. A panic ensued and there was,
a wild scramble for the doors.
The First National bank building is
one of the most beautiful structures in
the city. Finished only last year. Id
cost close to $1,000, 900. The main
floor was occupied by the bank, which
is the largest financial institution in
Kansas City. The W. upper stories
are occupied principally by zeal es-
tate and law firms.
At first the explosion was supposed
to have resulted from leaking natural
gas. but investigation developed the
fact hat the bomb had been placed in
Il toilet room in The basement. twenty
feet from the main vault.
The building was shaker as If by an
earthquake. The force may be appre-
ciated from the fact that it was felt
in all parts of the city.

Boise. Id. Jan. 7.-George A. Petit

conspiracy for the murder Of ex-Gov-
crnor Frank ~Steunenberg, was ac-
quilted today.
The jury, which brought in q ver-
dict of mot guilty" at 1870 o'clock this
Afternoon, had been celebrating since
$50 o'clock last night.
The last day of the trial was occu-.
pied by the argument of James J. Haw-
ley for the prosecution and the In
structions of the court. The defense
carried out its announced intention not
to argue, thus preventing Senator
Borah from addressing h jury.
Hawley fairly dared the attorneys
for Pettibone to speak in his behalf.
but they sat dumb when he concluded
argument would be presented by the
defense, Judge Hilton answered:
Certainly not"
Pettibone was so sick yesterday 1t
was necessary to carry him to the
court room.
The Instructions.
The Instructions differed tossome ex-
tent from those given In the Haywood,
trial. Judge Wood held that on proof
of the existence of a conspiracy to kill
enemies of h Western Federation of
Miners; that the defendant was a menu,
Der of such conspiracy; that Steunen-'
berg was regarded as an enemy of the
Western Federation of Miners. and that
his murder was a result of the conspir-
acy, the defendants should be found
guilty.

Make ARMY LIFE
MORE DESIRABLE
Secretary Of War Taft in Report
Recognizes the Need Of
Soldiers.

Washington, Jan. S.--Secretary Taft
;s q strong advocate of increased pay
to, the army. His annual report. just
sent TO congress, completely dispels
any doubt that may exist as to the sec
,etary's position.
The report begins with u formidable
nresentment of figures showing the
rrapid decrease in the strength of the
reg,,lar army in recent years. the loss
last wear being 4,42S men, and the press
ing need for officers to replace those
now detailed on recruiting duty or
AS military instructors In educational
institutions.
The secretary earnestly favors the
abortion for the army of the naval sys-
fem. under which the president is au.
thorized to fix rates of pay within de-
fined limits as a means of obtaining
Ibetter discipline and higher efficiency.
He recommends the creation Of a gen.
eral service corps to relieve the soldiers
Of a vast amount of unmilitary work
they are now called upon to perform.
In his opinion, military service should
he so attractive and desirable it will
not be difficult 20 get hold of a class
of men needed for enlisted personnel
and make army service a life work, as
ii used to be, by offering rewards for
proficiency n greater increase in pay
for length of service.
Accompanying the report are esti-
mates for support of military es-
tablished during the next fiscal
year, the same being 81. $50. 900 greater
than last years appropriation. Ninety
per cent of the increase is for coast
defense works, of which about $21, 700, 900
is required for the United States and
S4,SO0, 900 for the insular possessions.

GREAT GAIN IN THE

Washington, Jan. S.--The annual re-
port of First Assistant Postmaster
General Frank II. Hitchcock states that
the revenues obtained through the post
office during the fiscal year of 1906
amounted to sl6s. OOO, 900. a gain of more
than SIS. 900, GOO. and the report states
that this growth was continued in 1907
when the aggregate was $1S3, 900, 900. In
order to meet this continuous growth
of his bureau, Mr.. Hitchcock makes an
appeal for larger appropriations.

BALLOONS IN AMERICA.

I Washington, Ian. THE govern

of war balloons. and Is figuring with
an American maker OF them. Recently
the Val department here ordered draw,
ings and estimates for a ship OF this,
sort, placing the order with Charles,
Strobel, of Toledo. Ohio. Strobel lastl
summer brought one OF his ships here
and 1t navigated around Washington:
for a fortnight or more. doing some re-.
lmarkable things. Army officers who
have studied the big army balloons
which the French army Is using de-
clared the Strobel vessel better, cheap
er and simpler than the rem con-
traptions.
Later Strobel went with his ship tol
Mexico City. where he raced around
to the great edification of the people.
President 1 a took an interest in tho
airship, and ordered it to be brought
for a trial in his presence. The stair
Of the army attended, and was so
