words, they, for a pittance, helped

but short time previous belonged

Continuing, Mr.. Moorehead said
that the Indian administration was
giving too much attention to edu.
eating and allotting the Indians and
not enough to protecting them. The
speaker went on:
What shall be done? First, have
an inspection service worthy of the
name. How could White Earth
have reached its amazing condition
had inspectors done their duty?
Second. there should be prompt le-
gal action in all Indian matters.
Three years have passed and the
Department Of Justice has not ended
the White Earth case. The Chippe-
wa naturally concludes that the
"hlte rascals at Detroit and Ogema,
Mimi, are more powerful that the
Great Father at Washington, for the
simple reason that they obtain the
Indian lands in few months at the
most whereas the Great Father
spends three years and has not ad-
ministered justice"
The speaker also advocated that
competent ethnologists should make
up a list of the full-blood Indians OF
the United States, that the commits
sioner of indian affairs should make
protection the keynote of his admin
lstration and the the Board of In
dian Commissioners be given broad
powers by Congress.

ALASKA MINERAL LANDS
Secretary Fisher Testifies
That He Has Found No
Allowable Claim.

Secretary Fisher testified before the
Senate committee on public lands yester-
day that there was not a single claim for
mineral land in Alaska that, under the
present showing of facts, could be allow
ed by the Interior Department. He said
he found this state of facts after he had
ordered a thorough examination of what
appeared to be the most meritorious of
the claims for the coal and other lands.
TN some cases dummies had been re-
sorted to by claimants with a view to
acquiring large areas.
Mr.. Fisher favored the Smoot bill to
provide for leasing of coal lands in
Alaska and for u permanent coal supply
there for the use of the navy. He sug-
gested a number of amendments.

SHOWS TAX INCREASES
HIT MIDDLE CLASSES
Browne Tells House Committee
Present System Will Par

Expert testimony from Herbert j.
Browne, before the George tax and assess
ment investigating committee of the
noon, showed that If the land and i'm
provements in the District had been in
creased in assessment In the same pro-
portion last year the assessment roll
would be S6O,0OOOO0 greater than 1t is.
Mr. Browne said that much OF the in
creased assessment for last year fell on
the middle-class homes of the city.
Mr.. Browne referred to the tom John
son assessment" in 1893 when land was
assessed at S167 O7O.72S and improvements
at $G6, 474. 446 Mr.. Browne said that
strong real estate interests effected a re-
vision. the total assessment on land being
cut finally to $112. $40. 1888. a 81 per cent
decrease, while the Tom Johnson values
on improvements were allowed to stand.
Nearer in Point of Taxes.
The witness had prepared a table for
the record, which had been made up to
show that land and improvements are
getting nearer and nearer together in
point of taxes.
Next year" said Mr.. Browne, with
IS 100000 or SIC, 100000 added on improve
ments, the assessments on improvements
will be greater than on land values for
the first time in twenty-five years.
This will mean the paralysis of build
ing operations in Washington. Already
the assessor has choked off such activ-
tiles in this city. and further effects OF
this will be felt within six months
