A SQUARE DEAL TO THE INDIAN

The Jan. issue of the New Era
contains the following, which is
applicable to Indian affairs at
Cheyenne Agency:
The town of Dallas, situated
near the eastern line of Tripp
County, and even now bidding
fair to control the opening of that
county as Bonesteel did that of
Gregory County, is in many ways
the ideal of the border town.
1t is but little over half year
since the townsite was unbroken
and virgin prairie; now it is the
terminus of q railroad, a busy
market place and the home of a
five hundred population that is
representative Of much that is
best in our American citizenship.
Last month when it become
necessary for Major Kelley to
make the payment Of the Ponca
Indians at Dallas, owing to the
presence of those of the entire
district at that place, the Com
mercial Club insisted upon the
closing of all drinking and gambl-
ing places for two full days.
The same Commercial Club has
inaugurated a cooperative policy
for the purpose of furthering the
leasing Of Indian lands in Tripp
County that form a part of its
natural territory, that while de-
signed to add to the advantages of
Dallas, is none the lesss to be, in
its effecting, of much benefit to
those Indians who control allot-
ments within such territory.
If al!otments that are now un-
occupied and unproductive in
every way can be secured to enter
prising lessees for such length
of time that they will improve
them by breaking fencing, ETC., it
| will mean q great increase of
values attaching to such property
and also mean that those allot-
ments will be made ready for
Indian occupancy much more
quickly than could be done in any
other way.
Many evidences are given of q
sense of fairness, on the part OF
Dallas citizens, toward their In
dian neighbors, which because Of
it's rarity is the more com men
dable and appreciable by the In
dians' friends.
There is a large element among
our Indian population, whose
every inclination tends towards
individual and racial betterment
and who are capable of appreciat.
ing to the fullest extent any
policy of fairdealing that is ex.
tended to them: and those whose
sense of fairdealing extends ''ever
Co the Indian can in no sense be
| the losers.

sary security the defendant was re-
manded to prison pending further dispo-
sition of the case.

plant of a guest In one of the lower Penn
sylvania avenue hotels that he had been

Gated that Hill is an expert hotel thief,

seven different hotel robberies in this city

probability be several others by the time

Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
TOXIC, July 15.-The Japanese press. in
It's comment upon the personnel OF the
new cabinet, agrees that the new premier.
Gen. Taro katsura, is by no means free
from responsibility for the faults of his
predecessor. Marquis Saionji. This atti-
tude is merely continuation of the posi-
ton which 1t took last week. maintain
ing that the change in cabinets was little
more than a device to appease the popular
clamor Editorially. the Independent jour-
mails urge complete abandonment of the
policies of the past.
Tax System Reform.
Katsura has been quoted during the past
two days as saying that he would devote
his energies to the adjustment of finances
and the reformation of the tax system.
Added force is given to this statement by
the fact that no minister of finance is to
be appointed at present, and the duties of
this office are TO be administered directly
by the premier. The banking interests of
the country are much encouraged by this
position of the new cabinet, and are ap-
parently hopeful that speedy relief will
be afforded them.
The price of japanese securities has
been falling steadily since March. 1907,
and the work of the new cabinet in the
department of finance will be to devise
some method Of preventing further de-
cline.
Standpat Military Policy.
Premier Katsura's proposals for mill
tary and naval reduction and for ''recu-
peration rather than aggression" in for
eign affairs are regarded. according to the
press today. as having a much better
chance of a hearing with the people at
large, owing to the fact that Katsura is
4 member of the same clan as Prince va
magata, who is the most powerful of the
group of elder statesmen and represents
avowedly the military section of the state.
The Kokumin. which will probably be
the official organ of the new government.
asserts this morning that the cabinet is
unmilitary." 1t continues: Premier
katsura proposes neither increase nor re-
ductiOn in military and. naval establish
ments. His policy will be to maintain
the army and navy at that point of eff
cheney and size which will be stuff to
safeguard Japan in the maintenance of a
peace policy.

An immense derrick, capable of lifting
eighty tons, today began taking down the
sandstone pieces of the east front of the
Treasury, and in short time the great
sandstone pillars we'll known on the
18th street side of the building will give
way to giant pillars of granite.
Some years ago the supervising archi-
tect's office of the Treasury came to the
conclusion that the entire east front of
the Treasury, or that portion comprising
the east of the old Treasury building. was
dsintegrating. The pillars. the pilasters,
the coping. the walls, all parts are of
sandstone. Some of this had begun to
crumble, and the decision was reached
that it should all give way to granite of
similar design and patterns to the newer
portions of the money edtice of the gov
eminent.
The pillars Of the north. west and south
fronts of the building are of solid granite,
