copyist Nobody speaks of him as q
second Roosevelt" The president and
Governor Hughes are often spoken of
as representing similar ideas In gov
ernment and public policy, but nobody
ever accused Mr.. Hughes Of copying
after the leader Of his party and the
head Of the nation.
Mr.. Hughes is In great demand as q
platform orator and recently said that
II was impossible for him to accept
more than a small proportion of the
invitations he receives to make ad-
dresses. On the platform he is ener-
getic and magnetic, but not oratorical
He Is one of the most polished speak
ers before the American public today,
and he emphasizes his points with ges-
lures and apt Illustration, but there Is
no attempt whatever at theatrical eff
feet or rhetorical perorations, and what
chiefly impresses the nearer is the idea
that the man to whom he is listening
Is in dead earnest. One thing that
warns an audience TO Hughes is his
optimism. He is against all rottenness
In public affairs and indefatigable In
exposing 1t, but he believes with all his
heart that the American nation, after
all Is said and done, Is sound at the
core.
To run as Mr.. Hughes is running 1t
the government of state with such
weighty affairs as New York requires
not only great mental and moral stamL
ma. but large amount Of physical en-
ergy, and one can well understand how
the governor felt when John L. Sulli.
van called on him at Albany one day.

difficulty with the Ute band was the
subject Of a conference at the White
House, and the decision was reached
to continue In this case the policy OF
the Indian bureau Of furnishing the
red men opportunity to work and in
case Of their failure to take advantage
of the opportunity to leave them to
their own resources. The belligerent
Utes put their case thus: ''On our res
ervation we heap hungry. No food.
Woman and papoose die because. We
no go back. We fight first till all
dead" But If the Utes were hungry
1t was partly because of their own i'm
providence, and the government gave
them the chance to work for their ra-
tons. In negotiating with the disaf-
fected Utes the government agents
were aided by the old Sioux chief
American Horse. who counseled the
discontinued warriors to heed the ad-
vice Of their white brothers and leave
the warpath.
The government has made up its
mind that It is no real kindness to the
red man to continue Indefinitely the
policy of supporting him in idleness;
hence the adoption Of the plan of allot-
ting land In severalty to the Indians
and preparing them for the duties of
citizenship. 1t is proceeding upon the
assumption that the Indian is a desir-
able parsonage when he gives up an
idle, roaming life, earns his bread by
the sweat of bis brow like any other
man and ceases to be a ward Of the
nation
Commissioner Leupp and those of
the administration who sympathize
with his views believe in the future of
the Indian and are convinced that the
best kindness the government can
show to the red man Is to help him to
take up the white mans burden and
cease to be nomad. As the reseFva.
tons are broken up the red men as In,
dividuals are allotted land ample for
their support, provided they make use
of the same methods for its cultiva-
ton that the white man uses. In line
with this plan is what the government
is doing for the Indian through the
reclamation service. Nearly $1,000, 900
has been expended In irrigation on the
Crow reservation In Montana, for
which the Crow Indians furnished
funds and the common labor necessary
for prosecuting the work About $780,
600 is to be expended In providing the
Pimas Of the ella river reservation in
Arizona with a proper water supply,
and 100000 has been appropriated by
congress for the irrigation of the al.
lotments made to the Ute Indians of
the former Uintah reservation, and ir.
rigation canals are being built there as
fast as possible. Among the Zunis of
New Mexico. the Shoshone and Arapa-
hoe Indians Of Wyoming and the south
ern California Indians similar work Is
In progress, and the labor Is being per
formed largely by the red men them
selves, while thousands of others may
be found employed at white mems
work for white mems wages on the
ranches and railroads of the vast south
west and It is generally admitted that
as rule, they make good workmen-
