Absence of Penalty Pro-
vision Causes Criticism
In the House.

Serious opposition developed IN the
House today 10 the form OF the bin re-
ported from the House District Commit
tee providing for universal transfers
over the street car lines in the District
The universal transfer bill was the
first one called Up by Chairman Smith
when the House met for the considera-
ton OF District legislation
Mr. Gardner Of Pennsylvania asked
why the bin had no penalty for non
compliance within its provisions Rep
resentauive Wiley Of New jersey, author
Of the bin. ana who was in charge OF
il on the floor, declared that a penalty
was unnecessary, and that the provis'-
ons Of the bill could be enforced into
the terms Of general law Representa-
tive Norris OF Pennsylvania asked that
he be referred 10 the statute BY which
the street car companies could be forced
70 issue the transfers Mr.. Wiley could
not give him the reference, but said
he was making the statement based
upon an assertion made to the District
Committee BY Corporation Counsel
Thomas
Representative Gaines OF West Vir-
GINA said that under the terms OF the
bin as presented 10 the oTuse, provision
for universal transfers would be made
nun ana VOID In case the street car
companies could not reach an agreement
and failed 10 present their differences 10
the District Supreme Court
Representative Butler OF Pennsylvania
made a similar criticism Of the bin. and
declared that the section relating 10 the
transfers should be absolutely indepen-
deft Of that providing for an account
ing between the street railway com
panies so that whatever differences
might arise between the railway com
panieS. citizens OF Washington would
not be deprived OF the transfers

JOHN ). TAXES HIS
 DAILY WHISKEy BATH
NEW PRESCRIPTION SEEKING TO GIVE THE OIL KING PHYSICAL VlGOR.

CLEVELAND, Aug. 3. = John D. Rockefeller has taken to whisky; not. however. in the form the average hu- man being takes it. The worlds richest man is just as far from being a toper as he ever was. Further more. his reputation as a total ab- stainer from liquor is just as clear as it has been all during his life.
 The whisky to which Rockefeller has taken is meant to prolong life and render him nimble for his daily reception on the golf links of Forest Hill. In other words he has become addicted to the whisky bath.
 Despite his frequent allustions to his youth, Mir. Rockefeller is feeling his age. and the whisky baths have been prescribed by his physicians to preserve his strength and render him able to withstand the rigors of golf. his fayorie pastime. This was learn ed today from a member of the household.
 In line with his physician's pres cription the oil king has adopted an innovation in his living methods. In stead of sleeping until 8 or 9 o'clock in the morning. he has begun to get up every morning at 5 o'clock His hour for retiring at night has been moved ahead by several hours.

INDIAN CENSUS NOT THE
 TASK II WAS ANTICIPATED

A difficult task was apprehended in taking the Indian census; but the re- suits revealed it to be far less so than was at first foreseen, despite the placing of an extra task upon the special agents-that of obtaining tribal data These will. be probably the last to be taken. since a decade hence ther will probably remain no Indians who are not citizens instead of dependent wards of the national government. As had been calculated from observation. the returns show a decrease in number fin the decade tended in 1900. That decrease is from 273.607 to 2e6.7e0 or 2.5 per cent But in 1880 the care of the Indians cost the government s5.206.109: .n 1909 that cost had increased more than three times, to s15,724.162.
 More important if the evidence presented as to advancement in in dustry and education. The total at tendance of Indian children ia schools. both under government and missionary management, is 25.777. It Is an interesting feature of these schools that special effort is made to

teach the Indian child some specific industry by which he may hope to win self-support. Thus. in Michigan, the cultivation of the sugar beet is taught, and in California a chief sub ject Of instruction is fruit growing. picking and packing. It is well to be assured also that there is inculcated the theory of self-respect of labor and of the disgrace of idleness. A noteworthy example of such labor is that performed by Apaches upon rec. lamation projects. at which they earned s34,OO0 fin 1909 for service in a climate where it would have been difficult. if not impossible. for white men to undergo the requisite physical strain. Navajos and Pueblos have made creditable records at sheep herding. and railway construction has employed a goodly number of In dians along the route of the Southern Pacific The day seems to have passed when the only good Indian is a dead one. and when they are to be regarded, as they were by the New England Puritans, as '1mps of the evil one.'

BOOM FOR WILSON
 INTERESTS SOUTH
PRESIDENT OF PRINCETON IS FAVORED IN THAT SECTION FOR PRESIDENT

NEW YORK. Aug. 5.-The mild presidential boom which has been started in favor of President Wood row Wilson of Princeton, has stirred up a good deal of interest in the southern colony in New York Presi- dent Wilson is a southern man. He was born in Staunton. Va, married Miss Avson Of Savanna, Ga, and practieed law for a while in Atlanta He has always been a conservative democrat of the Cleveland type, and while not in any sense a politician he has always taken an active part in public affairs.
 While it is not seriously thought he stands much of a chance. it is pretty safe to say that if the nom ination was left to the southern mer of New York he would be the man nominated

 No Limitation Placed.
 Tt is probably true" continues the attorney general, that when this act was passed congress did not contem- plate that any state would designate one or more of its citizens who were then engaged in warlike rebellion against the government Of the United States as personal illustrations of either historic renown or for distin- guished civic or military service whose statues should be placed Tn this hall. Nevertheless. perhaps. in the hope of what Mir. Lincoln so firmly described as this scourge of war might soon pass away and that a reunited country might be realized. congress placed no limitation act upon the exercise of the discretion of any state in selecting these persons whom it may deem to be worthy of this national commemoration.'
 Tt is now forty-fiye years since the Civil War closed. Robert E. Lee has come to be generally regarded as typifying not only all that was best in the cause to which, at the be- hest of his native state. he gavs his services. but also the most loyal and unmurmering acceptance of the complete overthrow of that cause That the state of Virginia should des- ignate him as one illustrious for dis
 WASHINGTON. Aug 4.-"Wanted Five hundred farmers" This is the notice that Uncle Sam has hung outside the official front door in Washington.

Tn many sec tions a tract of grazing land has been included in the farm unit, bring ing the total up to f60 acres. There is no drawing or any element of chance in applying for one of these farms It is only necessary to make a homestead entry at the land office. The farms are for bona fide home seekers who are entitled to make a homestead entry. the only charges, besides a land office fee for filing, be- ing the actual cost of getting water to the land.

TUCSON DIRECTORY
 MAKES BIG SHOWING
INDICATES A PERMANENT POP uLATIoN OF FROM 10000 TO 25,ooo FOR CITY.

TUCSON. Aug. 5.-F. E. A. Kim ball has just issued a new directory of the city of Tucson. and the result is flattering to those who are inter ested in the growth and development of the city. The directory indicates a most healthy increase.
 The new directory contains only the names of persons who are engag- ed in work of some sort. yet has e972 of these. No women and children are given. unless the women chance to be known as heads of the house. In cases of doubt the men are given the benefit. No names under IT or IS years of age are given.
 As almost all of the 67S2 employed persons are men and in most in- stances each man represents a wife and an average one or two children. the directory indicates a population of well over 10000 persons on a con .seryative estimate. In most cities the population shown by city direc- tory is multiplied by three every where, the wives of employed per sons are named.
 The new directory contains the names of many persons residing out side the present corporate limits. but all are within what is properly the city of Tucson. This then bears out the claim of the chamber of com merce and other boosters that Tue son has permanent population of between 10000 and 25.oOo persons the alleged result of the federal cen sus as prematurely published some time ago notwithstanding.

The prohibition question, which was practically the sole issue in the last election in Tennessee, has apparently been lost sight of in the campaign now on in that State. It is generally admitted that in large cities little or no attempt has been made to enforce the Statewide prohibition law, and the administration forces have openly de clared that if they are victorious in The election this month steps will be taken to have the law repealed at the next session of the legislature.

CAN'T REMOVE
 LEES STATUE
 FROM HE HALL
No Law 10 Warrant Such Ac- ton, and Ethics Would Leave Monument Where Ii Is

BEVERLY, Mass. Aug. 5.-Presi dent Taft has approved without com. pent an opinion by Attorney Gen eral Wickersham to the effect that there is no provision by law by which the statue of General Robert E. Lee, fin Confederate uniform. can be re- moved from statuary hall in the Cap itOl at Washington.
 In addition to deciding the ques- tion on purely logical basis. MT. Wickersham argues the matter. from an ethical point of view, declaring that Lee has come to be regarded as typifyiug all that was best in the cause to which he gave his services and the most loyal and unmurmuring acceptance of the complete over throw of that cause. That the state of Virginia should designate him for that place in statuary hall as one il- lustrious for distinguished military service, the attorney general declared Is only natural. and would be within the reading of the law.
