eryations. about l.eoo. The osage rn- dians in. Oklahoma srv said to, be the rfchest people on the face of the earth, considering their average wealth. Other Indians are land owlners au many statss of the Union. The lands in what was formerly Indian Territory were allotted to individual Indiana and con- sequently ceassd to be reservations some time ago.
 There are Indian reservations in twenty-two States and Territories, stretching ail the way from New York and North Carolina to tho Pacific coast. and from Michigan and Wisconsin to Arizona and New Nexice. Some of these reservations have never been surveyed and their resources can only be- imagined. Arizona contains the aggregsting over 1s.ooo.ooo acres. and Montana and South Dakota each have 100000 acres. AS compared with these great areaa. either of which 10 equal to the areas of several Nav England States combined. KanSss con- tains only s22 acres of Indian reserva-, tions. Iowa 2.ss5 acres. Michigan over 1000 acres. North Carolina sS000 acres. and New York, s7.o0o acres. 4
 There are thirty-thrse Indian reser- vations in California, twerty-eight of them being inhabited by Mission In- dians. The Indians are adopting the Governments plan of working for living and last year alone they got tho Government to sell es.0oo.eoo worth of their. land. so that they could enter other occupations than that of farm ing. = |
 Tne dinscuity of dealing with the red men is Increased by the variety of their languages. customs and other characteristics. Recently q request was received at the Interior Depart mont for c translation of the Indian language. ."s Tn reply. the Department stated that there are over 800 recog- nissd different Indian languages and dialects.
 The policy of opening Indian reser- vations to settlement is calculated to develop the great West. It is the pol- toy that has been pursued successfully for several eenerations. i Everything from the Atlantic to the Pacific, except thes thirteen original colonies and Texas. was at one tims or another public land. Out. of it twenty i've States have grown. Although the pub- lie land Is being entered at the rate of 20.0o0,eo0 acres a year. thers is stiil unapproprfatsd and unreserved about soo.ooo.ooo acres in all.

The dignfied and conservative New
York Tribune enters a protest in all
seriousness against the attempt to
make the 'possum national emblem
1t has no special fault to find with the
Teddy bear craze, but probably be-
cause that craze is likely to subside
with the change in administration, but
it feels; that matters are being carried
too far when 'possum, a mean and lg-
noble beast, a robber of hen roosts, a
cow8rdly dissembler without poetry or
,humor in his makeup, attempts to
crowd the noble eagle from the place
where tradition and sentiment have 50
long maintained it. The Tribune could
stand the bear all right, but the des-
cent 20 the 'possum is too much. 1t
fears that the skunk will be the next
stage.

Julian Harris, the son of the late
Joel Chandler Harris, writing in the
magazine which his father founded,
declares that those so-called grand
daddy" clauses which various southern
states have embodied in their consti-
tutions as a means of disfranchising
the negroes, are sure to be worse for the
whites than the negroes in the long
run. He declares that the educational
restriction put upon the negro has
proved to him stimulus to acquire an
education. The illiterate whites are
safely sheltered by the 'granddaddy"
clause as far as their ballots are con-
cerned and so do not have this same
stimulus to arouse them to an ambition
to learn something about the three RS
The result will be, so Mr.. Harris
holds. that within the next generation
the black race will acquire an educa-
ton, or at least the elements OF an ed
ucation, while the ignorant and shift
less poor whites will make no steps
forward.

Co.educ ational TanuIes,

At last, after long and exceedingly
bitter agitation, the enemies of coed
ucation at Wesleyan University in
Connecticut have triumphed, and,
henceforth, young women will not be
allowed to pursue their studies at that
institution. To most minds it is a puz-
zle why girls have insisted upon at
tending 4 college where male students,
not to mention the alumni and a part
of the faculty and governing bodies.
have made it plain that they We're not
wanted. But, nevertheless, for 80 years
girls have been seeking an education
at Wesleyan and all that time the war
fare to drive them out has been Wag-
ing. The experience of Wesleyan has
been that of other colleges, especially
here in the East where cO-education
has never been the success that it
has appeared to be in the West. Even
i'm the West there are growing doubts
concerning the future of co-education,
and within q short time both Chicago
University and Leland Stanford have
taken steps to segregate the sexes and
limit the number of women students.
Similar action is proposed at the Uni
v1rsity of Wisconsin and other leading
western institutions
Recently. in speaking of co-education
q
ton declared elnphatically against the
system. Here in Maine the problem
has beer most acute at Colby where it
has met a partial solution in the ar
rangement by which two colleges, one
for men and one for women, exist side
by side under the same management
instead of the old arrangement of class
room work in common. At Bates the
increasing number Of young women
has caused the faculty to limit the
number which will be admitted in any
one year but there co-education has
had fewer obstacles than it has met at
most eastern institutions. At the Uni
versity of Maine the young women stu
dents have been relatively few, only
dozen or twenty in a class, and things
have thus far gone smoothly. At Bow
doin there is no co-educational problem,
since by it's charter the institution
exists only for the education of young
men.

To be sure. President Taft is ma
tive of Ohio and he will figure as the
fifth son of that state to be elevated
to the presidency, but New England
can at least claim him as grandson.
His father was born in Vermont and
his mother in Massachusetts and far
back for many generations on botn
sides his ancestors were of the best
ld-time New England stock. The
first of the name in this country,
Robert Taft, came from England to
IJxbridge, Mass, in 1879 and where he
settled the family reunions are held
to this day.
