House Passed Burke Bill

Washington, Feb. "a: The
House passed the Burke bill, which
provides for the classification and
appraisement of lands on the
Standing Rock and Cheyenne res
ervations in the Dakotas. The
classification and appraisal pro-
posed are to be made with a view
to the sale of the lands affected.
The lands involved are those
that were not included in classiti-
cation heretofore made because
they we're embraced in Indian al.
lotments which were subsequently
suspended or within tracts relin-
quished by Indians for the pur.
pose of changing their allotments
The land office is desirous OF
selling the lands, application hav.
ing been made for them by pros
pective settlers. As a result o1
an objection made by Representa-
tive Mann, of Illinois, the house
passed over the Gamble bill ex
tending the time of payment tt
certain homesteaders on the Chey
enne river and Standing Rocl
reservations.

Department of Justice and far less
effective, for the Attorney Gen.
eral has actually taken steps tC
obtain a remedy from the courts
in all these cases. The investiga-
tions simply duplicate the work
of the Department of Justice and
the public has been patiently foot
ing the bill, without any return
whatever.
Once again a movement is un-
derway in congress to transfer the
title and custody of Mount Yer
non to the United States govern
ment. 1t has been suggested that
there should be an investigation
of the present system of maintain
ing the mansion and grounds, but
representations of this kind have
been made before, and congress
after casual survey of the stu
alton has invariably refused to
proceed. The principal objection
to the way things are done at
Mount Vernon is owing to the
charging of fees for admission to
the grounds. While all these crit
icisms may have some merit, vet
it is a fact that 5he home of the
first president has been kept in
splendid condition through the
patriotic work of an organization
of women who voluntarily look
after the welfare of the establish
ment. Government regulation
might not, after all, improve con-
ditions.
The question of economy and
efficiency in government which
has been worked out to large
degree in a thoroughly practical
manner by President Taft's COM
mission, headed by Chairman f.
A. Cleveland, has obtained results
by which they will doubtless cut
off many millions of dollars of
useless extravagance in the public
business. There is in this the
same basis for doing things in
sensible manner, as is furnished in
tariff legislation through the work
of the Tariff Board, and on the
other hand, a disposition prevaile
among the democratic majority to
legislate in a haphazard manner,
stirring up Investigations and the
like with view toward making
some sort of a record of economy
in the House of Representatives.
Economy was the watch word
the day Speaker Clark took office,
but even the boasted economy in
the management of affairs of the
House has not been carried out.
If the Commissions recommends
tions are followed it will be pos
sible to gradually conduct some
of the affairs of the government
on business basis, instead of
submitting to the political spoils
men.
