the bailiwick among the Indian citi-

blessed them with crystal springs and

they want to sell of their surplus
land and get their hands on the
ready cash; so Uncle Sam has mr.

Happy os.os indians In Oklahoma.

haPry OsaQe Indians In Oklahoma.
The richest community in the
world Is right here In America, and
not made up OF fiIlanciers, Wall street
men, or railroad magnates, either;
but OF Indians, who know little about
modern methods of speculation and
who are throwing their wealth to the
winds In a manner that would almost
make the son OF a mAgnate green
with envy. These Indians are the
1900 oaasss who reside In Oklahoma,
who were born rich, and who are
proving to be more lucrative than
gold mine to the white men who have
learned the art or separating the In
dian and his cash- Were II not for
tho federal government, which has ex-
ercised patsr1Al restraint over
the Osages, they would by this time
have sunk into poverty. But Uncle
Sam has seen to 1t that they should
not have all their money at their dis.
posal at once: he has financed mnt-
ters for them, and for that reason
they are the richest community on
earth
Each member OF the 0sase tribe
has In hts possession a homestead OF
100 acres and 4eo acres of surplus
land. none of which is worth a cent
less than $40 m acre Then, hesides
this, they have in the treasury OF the
United States about $s.0oo. 600 Their
real property u extremely valuable,
Nature having favored them by de-
posting there natural, gas, petroleum,
seInianthr acite coal. zinc. lead, cop.
per. oolite. cement rock. building
stone and brick clay. The natural
gas supply is no generous that most
of the time the Jets I'm the houses and
ON the streets are left burning night
and day.
There are about 800 full -bloods In
10 tribe, and they take a pride I'm
kee.i, up the customs of their an
ccatc.' They hold yirtuously to their
.ea cC der Of Hohpreh. and the
@ Ms carry their wealthy little
parUosea on boards on their backs,
sometimes scolding them I'm Indian
jargon. but never striking them or
furnishing them I'm any other way. II
Is a noticeable fact that they never
resort to the biIhnEBgate that many
white r.others rake use OF In cor.
recting their offspring. These full
bioods are nsbobs I'm every sense of
the word. II their land is titled, they
hire some one TO till It; your wealthy
Usage doesnt put his hand 10 the
patch any moro tban Rockefeller and
Carnegie do. 1t is AN extremely short
distance that Mr.. Indian can be per.
suaded To walk; ne has forsaken the
ways of HIS ancestors who bestrode
the bare back OF bucking broncho;
he rides ON the soft cushions OF a
carriage or motor car. Few indeed
are the shows that come near which
he does not attend. and he shows
the same fondness FOR fiTewater that
his pfoxsnitors revealed when first
their iips pseessa the neck OF booze

DEATH DANGER IN FOOTBALL
Must he Eliminated or Game Abandoned.
Says President Alderman.

RICHMOND. Va, Nov. lo.-E. A. Alder
man. president Of the University OF
Virginia. who acted as an honorary pail
bearer at the funeral this afternoon OF
Archer Christian, who was killed at
football in the Virginia Georgetown game
in Washington on Saturday. tonight
gave out statement in which he reaches
the conclusion that the peril OF death
must be eliminated from football or the
game abandoned.
The trouble with the game Of football
to my mind is that the risk to life is in
ordinate" says President Alderman
.Danger TO life exists in the rules of the
game deliberately planned and deliber-
stely maintained. Many OF the serious
injuries resulting from playing the game
are inevitable under these rules.
Intelligent, resolute and concerted
action should be taken 20 remove the
inordinate risks 20 life involved in this
great sport. The intercollegiate athletic
committee, whose function 1t is TO study
the game and check the dangers existing
in it, has not yet struck at the root of the
trouble.
81 believe it would be a calamity to
take out OF college life the discipline that
springs out of such a great game as foot
ball. demanding the exercise of splendid
manly qualities, but l do believe and de-
liberately declare that the peril Of death
and injury inherent in the strategy of
this game should be eliminated or the
game itself abandoned"

ulterior motive in the formation OF the
Democratic League. such as the nomina-
