Muskopoc. Okla. March 2G--The
International Congress of Indians 20
bc participated in by every tribe of
Indians In the United States, and
some from Mexico and Canada, to
be- held in Muskogec, Okla. beginning
June = and ending July 4. is to be
the last general conference of the
abOIigines OF tho American continent.
IN the words OF Charles Grass, "A full.
blood Cherokee, we want TO get TO.
gethcr for one more talk. 1t will be
our last"
The movement was started in Mus.
kogcc by the Commercial club which
has asked Moty TIGER Green McCur-
tain, Douglas H. Johnston, John Brown
and G. w. Rogers. the chiefs of the
Greeks. Choctaws. Chlckasaws, Sem
inolrs and Chcrokces of the Five CIV
ilIzcd Tribes, and Governor c. y.
Haskell, TO join in an official invita-.
tion TO every Indian chief In the Unit.
ed states, and as many of their head
mon as 1t Is possible for them to
bring TO participate in this congress.
II is proposed to bring together here
the Kiamati from Oregon, the Sioux
from the DakOtas the lroquois from
New York. the Seminoles from the
Everglades of Florida, the Kicking
KiskapOos from southwestern Texas
the Apachcs from Arizona. and gather
into one vast asscmblage chiefs from
all other tribes of the rapidly disap.
pearng race of red men.
And there will be asked to meet
them President Taft, Secretary II, A..
Ball.nger, of the interior department,
Robert q. Valentine, commissioner "
Indian affairs, James \. Wilson, sec
rotary of the department of agricul-
turc, and many other distinguished
citizens of the United States who are
Interested in the welfare of the Indian,
including Col. Roosevelt.
This IS not entirely new idea. A
similar congress was held in MusEo-
gee in 1873. At that time there were
5000 Indians here. They came to that
congress from the Dakotas, New York
and Florida. The western tribes were
then mciyilized and did not partici.
pate. The most distinguished repre-
sentative of the government present
at that congress was Carl Schl'z, at
/ that time secretary of the iucri"r,
and his commissioner of Indian al
fairs.

The Killing of Aliens.

1t Is announced that I'm all probability
the President will in h 8 annual message
to Congress refer to the outbreak of
feeling In Mexico against citizens Of this
country growing out Of the ba. barrie
lynching OF Mexican in Texas, and will
take occasion explicitly to recommend the
enactment OF a law making the murder
of an alien anywhere within the national
boundaries crime against the United
States. Such a measure has been pro-
posed before III connection with similar
int. national difficulties growing out Of
the lack OF federal jurisdiction over crimes
committed within the states, and the con-
sequent inability Of the government at
Washington to assure foreign powers OF
the proper punishment Of the criminals.
The President has on several occasions
expressed his belief that the United
States should provide itself with this
means Of insu.ing justice to all countries
with which II has amicable relations.
LogicaliX there can be no dissent from
this propdsition. The United states re-

international Exchange of Children.
From the Chicago Tribune.


A German professor, speaking in this
country. has proposed that there should
be an exchange of child en- between Ger
many and the United States. We were
now exchanging professors between the
universities. he said. and the work for a
better mutual understanding of each
other could be extended immensely by
German and American parents exchang-
ing their children during a part Of their
school years. This custom has been in
fashion between England and Germany
and between England and france for
many yearl, and it has worked out sat-
isfactorily. One can easily see how ue-
tween countries so near together as those
1t would be In some cases an advantage
for the children of one nation to become
acquainted with the language, lie and
customs of another by means of a resi-
dence away from home. This particular
ly would be the case of young men who
expected to engage in business. 1t would,
too, have a broadening effect on young
minds at q formative period. 1t would,
however, take considerable courage for
American parents to pat with the r chill
dren In Older to have them reside even
for a short period with strangers in an
alien land, and 1t is doubted IL many
would consider the sacrifice justified by
the probable advantage Of such a so.

While impenetrable silence continues to
prevail at Oyster Bay and the most con-
spicuous figure in the late campaign re-
mains mute and inarticulate, successful
and unsuccessful candidates for Office
are exchanging congratulations and
chairmen are issuing statements Of ex-
PLANTATION. 1t has become customary
for the defeated aspirant for Office to ex-
tend to his competitor assurances Of good
will and felicitation. Perhaps the hap
piest instance of this spirit Of fair play
i'll American politics is afforded by an
exchange of letters that has just occur
red between Vivian NJ. Lewis and Wood
row Wilson. the defeated and triumphant
candidates for the Office Of Governor of
New Jersey. Promptly upon the dis
closure of DIR. Wilson's majority Mr..
Lewis sent him a cordial message in ac-
acknowledgement of the result. DR.. Wilson
has replied with a letter of thanks in
which he takes occasion to pay a tribute
to his political rivals handsome conduct
through the campaign and to express his
delight in feeling that there was nothing
personal in their opposition.
This spirit is universal in American
public affairs. Washington has seen
many instances of professional or politi-
cal rivalry coupled with the warmest per-
sonal friendship. Visitors to the Capitol
are familiar with the spectacle of two
senator's hammering one another fierce,y

traditional senatorial courtesy to the

good fellowship. Yet this does not sig
Nifty that those who are partisans in
action are not sincere in their profess

took his political commission so seriously
that he carried his convictions into his
personal relations. There have been in
stances of this, and Washington has
never seen lonelier people than those who
commune only with their political kind

ceives aliens freely as immigrants, regard
less of their intention to become citizens.
1t presumably assures them protection
while residing here, and as long as they
retain allegiance to foreign power that
power is entitled to regard them as its
subjects and to expect for them the full
measure of the laws guarantees. When
one Of them commits crime and is in
due form accused and tried and punished
there is no ground for dissent or dispute.
But when as far as records run an alien
is deprived of his life or property with
out due process of law, whatever his
character or however grievously he may
have offended. the COVE nment to which
he retains allegiance is justified in pro-
testing and in considering itself aggrieved
through the immediate victim Of the
mob's violence.

The socialists complain that their propa-

ponents, in press. in pulpit and OH the

they are at a great disadvantage. Very
well With Mr.. Berger In the House this

sure, improve his opportunity. What he

will carry his explanations of social SIN to

the opposition will have something au-

Popuism made this same complaint at
the start. 1t charged that ridicule and
misreprt sentation were the main weapons
oil the opposition; that the personal ap-
pearance of the stage farmer with stray
Cling whiskers received more attention
than the policies advanced in the inter-
ests of his class. In time Jerry Simpson

Davis of West Virginia.

1t would be an event of the highest ma
tional interest If, at eighty seven and after
long rest from Office. Henry Gassaway
Davis should reappear In the Senate. Dis
patches from West Virginia mention his
name in connection with the succession to
Nathan b. Scott. Other names are men
tioned-those Of men of merit and ability
but that of Mr.. Davis is the most promi
nent Of all and in the country generally
will command much attention.
This well preserved veteran has had a
remarkable career. Beginning life in
humble circumstances, he addressed HIM
self first to business and then to politics.
and achieved notable success in both
fields. He made both money and reputa-
ton, and when he reached the Senate took
rank there with the men known as work.
ers. He was heard more frequently in
committee than In the open Senate, though
not a silent man when the debates played
around subjects that quickened his
thought.
Being Of business turn and training.
Mr.. Davis has never been in sympathy
with the extreme position taken by his
party at times on issues affecting tise
business world. He has never favored
free trade. Had he been in the Senate
when Mr.. German was reshaping the Will
son tariff bill he would probably have
stood with the Maryland senator on all
those items which proved so Objectionable
to the low tariff democrats. And Mr..
Bryan's advocacy of free silver was
something very far from the convictions
of one who had made so much money he
knew the importance Of keeping all money
sound.
1t so happens that the tariff is still an
issue. and that the next Congress will
tackle it. But in what spirit? Extreme,
or conservative? Probably the latter.
Already there are expressions from promi-
pent democratic leaders, some in ONCE and
some out, showing that conservatism all
along the line is going to be strong cry
The business world, which this year, in
many states. co-operated with the demo-
cratic party. is not to be made nervous
by extreme propositions in Congress.
If, therefore, Mr.. Davis should come back
his will be another vote in favor Of con-
servatism. In any tariff discussion the in
| terests Of West Virginia would not have a
stronger champion in the republican than
in the democratic senator. Both could,
propositions on schedules OF direct con-
Germ to their constituents.
This democratic triumph in the Pan
handle-the first In a long time-recalls
the fact that the state used to send strong
democrats to the Senate. Davis, Camden,
kenna and Faulkner ranked well in their
day with their associates, and rendered
their constituents good service.

The Corn Crop.
From the Boston Transcript.

It is not often that estimates fall below
actual results, especially when we are
trying to make out a good case for our.
selves: yet for some weeks we have been
content to say with some complacency
that our record-breaking corn crop would
be nearly three billion bushels. The final
report, putting it at more than hum
dred and twenty million bushels above
those colossal figures, will give an unex.
pected as well as an Unprecedented i'm
pulse to our national prosperity. A rec
Ord-breaking corn crop will do more than
a democratic tariff bill to reduce the high
cost of living.
