The News ALTAR.

Democratic newspapers Of b-b-c,l-
ibre like the Clarksburg News, are
circulating a deliberate falseho u
when they make the claim that the
Republican state platform has been
amended since the meeting of the
state convention at Charleston by the
insertion OF planks in said platform
commencing the administrations of
Senators Elkins and Scott and touch
ing on the Negro question. Both OF
these planks were submitted to the
convention in the platform OF prin-
ciples as read in a strong voice by
the Hon. Jno. ]. Hetzel, of Berkeley
county, chairman of the committee on
resolutions.-Grafton Republican.

A Disease Rreetling Nuisance.

Many complaints have been made
recently against the great clouds OF
dust that are raised by one or two
street sweepers in the paved streets
in the central part of the city, the OBJ
lection being that 1t is dangerous,
germ-bearing, Demonstrating nuis-
ance. Vast hosts of tubercle bacilli
swarm in the dirt of the street, where
human sputa is constantly brown,
and these as we'll as other dust germs
are carried in great, choking, blind
ing clouds OF dust into crowds OF
men, women and children on the side
walks and in stores. This should be
remeGied.
The superintendent OF streets
should be notified by the board OF
health to abate this harmful nuis-
ance, either by proper sprinkling of
the streets or by having the streets
swept in the spot fashion at hours
when there are not so many women,
children and men on the sidewalks.
The street superintendent apparently
has no concern for the health OF the
community and it is up to the board
OF health TO make him conform to
sanitary measures.

Our Democratic newspaper says IN
substance and by inference that the
Negro plank in tho Republican plat
form will not cost the Republicans
any votes. The Telegram agrees
with 1t in that respect but goes far
Their by saying that 1t will cause the
Democrats to lose some votes. Even
Louis Bennett. Democratic nominee
for governor, knows this and that is
probably his principal reason for not
looking with favor on that plank OF
the Democratic platform.

New York. April 14-Democrats
prominent in the state and union to
the number of 400 gathered last night
at the Hotel Knloberbocker where the
l65th anniversary of the birth of
Thomas Jefferson was celebrated at
dinner by the national democratic club.

United States Senator owen of iOkla-
mona.
Senator owen, whose topic was.
Thomas Jefferson in oklahoma" said
in part:
Thomas Jefferson was trongly on

many ways ! comment upon this be-
cause il was failure on the part of The
democratic party to develop and oh
serve this on teaching of Jefferson
which resulted in the retirement of
that party from national control during
the last half century.
The same spirit Of American liberty
which determined that the slavery of
the black man should not exist in this
country will stand against the enslaye-
ment OF white men by monopolies.
There are said 10 be over six million
women driven by economic needs out
of the homes of America outside Of do
nestle service compelled to earn their

wages Of man. hundreds of thousands
of young and tender children are being

der the grinding process of modern
monopoly and the exacting demands of
corporation owners who cry for "divi-
dcndsi dividends; dividends on water
ed stock of which only a fractional part
is honest capital entitled to interest.
The time has come in the United
States when the great doctrine Of
equality should be recognized in our
state craft
1T seems 10 me Il would be unwise
TO destroy the great corporations
which have been constructed in this
country by our so-called captains Of in
dustry. We have perfect right. bow

legally morally and il II a patriotic
duty TO do so. And they should not be

But Interior Department
Lawyers Fail to Answer
Senator's Question
Special to DAILY Leader.

Alftiui W Ddiil Iedubf.
Washington. April 14.-Senator
owen. Of Oklahoma, has the attorneys
in the interior department jumping
sideways. lie has propounded to them
some very pertinent questions relating
TO the affairs OF the Indians Of the five
civilized tribes. The question that is
giving them the most trouble is. Are
the Cherokee Indians wards of the
govenment2" owen says the depart
ment is treating them as such when
there is no law for it; at least no
law chat he can find. and he thinks
he knows all the laws relating 10 that
tribe. Having assumed a guardian
ship over them. teh senator asks what
law authorizes il. He propounded the
question to Secretary Garfield first in
the presence of President Roosevelt
at a recent White House conference.
Garfield said he could not answer IL.
Roosevelt told him TO have his lawyers
answer the question by the following
day. The lawyers couldn't do Il and
asked for more time. The president
granted their request but insisted on
chem making a reply 1T an early date
So far they have madc no reply SEN
ator Owen will give them n few more
days and then he win take the matter
UP again with the president
I do not believe the president will
permit the interior department to as-
sumo q guardianship over the Indians
of the five civilized tribes If there is
no law authorizing II" said Senator
Owen. There is no law The action
OF the department is arbitrary The
department is simply a trustee TO see
that the property Of the Indians is di-
yided equitahly among them After
that work is done, under the law and
the treaties. the department has no
other jurisdiction over them. 1t has
unwarrantedly assumed guardianship
over the Indians along with its trust
eeship over their property | am striV-
ing to have the department limited
to the functions that 1t can lawfully
perform That is why / have taken
the matter up direct with the presi-
dent. ] have every reason TO believe
that the president will instruct the
department to quiz assuming control
over people unlawfuliy.
The five civilized tribes in Oklaho-
ma are no longer Indian tribes under
the law They are American citizens,
made so by act of congress. and aside
from the restrictions placed upon the
disposal of their property which they
agreed TO In their treaties with the
government. they are just as free to
handle their affairs as any other cit
izen of this country That is they are
so far as the law is concerned. But
tie department without any authority
of law continues TO rule them and
their property with an iron hand
