SMUGGLING IS

Gen. Bliss complained Of the vague

imposed upon the troopers and the

ESTIMATE INDIAN
APPROPRIATE
INCREASE OVER LAST YEAR FOR
SAME PURPOSE is LESS THAN
Sl0O.Cco.

Washington, Dec. Ten million,
wo hundred and eight thousand dol
lars is what the Interior department
'hI- year asks Of congress for the ad-
r.ustra-on Of Indian affairs This
is an increase OF less than 100000
over the amount appropriated last
year The principal increases are for
school and industrial work and FOR
the immediate protection Of the In
diaLs; as, for instance $4,000 in
stead Of $4,000 for carrying on the
work Of determining the nelrship OF
Indian allottees, and $4,000, new
appropriation, for employing attor-
neys to protect Indian minors in
probate matters.
For Oklahoma Indians the amounts
asked for support and for carrying
out treaty stipulations are the same
as was appropriated in the last bill,
with the following exception: The
Kickapoos are to get $4,000, an in
crease Of $1,000; Chilocco School,
s1ll25o. an increase Of $20.750; Sac
and Fox Agency $1,000, increase Of
$40: Seneca Agencv, $500; in
crease of $1,000; Five Civilized Tribes

crease Of $4,000; probate attorneys

on.
on the other hand the estimates
ask for a reduction Of the amount
for the support of state schools in
eastern Oklahoma. When Oklahoma
lost the taxes from a large part OF
the Indian lands, congress appropri-
ated 100000 for two years in sue
cession for the aid OF the common
schools in the nations Of the five
tribes. but in the estimates sent to
congress today only $25oooo is asked
Tor this purpose.
The treasury department asks the
following appropriations for conunu-
aticn of the work on public buildings
in Oklahoma: Ardmore, 10000;
Blackwell. $4,000; Chickasha 10000;
FL Reno, $1,000.

COTTON CROP
Deterioratcs in All Parts Of the BeltS
Marked Change in Some Sections.

In the Tines-Dcmorrat Of Sept.
22 is presented a full report of the
cotton crop up to date as received
from its correspondents. The con-
census Of opinion is to the following
effect:
/. Sharp deterioration has been
the rule, and in some sections a rad
ical change has occurred.
= The boil Weevil has done great
damage in Louisiana and Mississippi
but elsewhere the loss seems to have
been less than was feared.
g. Many correspondents refer to
scarcity of pickers, the migration of
labor having been considerable
4. Farmers seem generally dis
posed to sell at current prices, at
least enough to meet all obligations,
but there will probably be strong
holding movement a little later on.
5. Recent rains have distinctly
lowered the grade; the effect on the
yield in Texas and Oklahoma is
predetermined as yet, for much will
depend on the date of killing frost.

The Recent Weather.

Several weeks ago we We're pray
ing for rain, as the drOuth over Il
good portion of the Southwest was
burning up the crops and causing
other losses and Inconvenience. Now
the general cry is that the rains
have been excessive. During the
past ten days or two weeks 1t has
rained in all parts of the South,
some days the doWnpour being
heavy and on other days but mod
crate. While the rains at first We're
welcomed, the general opinion now
is that we have had entirely too
much rain. Cotton is being damaged
in grade and corn is not maturing as
it should The, rice harvest has been
stopped and sugar cane, when
should now be maturing, is taking
on a new growth which may mean
green canes and low sugar contents
when the grinding season arrives.
Fortunately crop damage from
weather is never as extensive as at
first reported. The season is now at
hand when cooler and drier wealth
er may reasonably be expected, anc
there is already report Of freezing
in the Northwest, which is pretty
certain to bring bright and clear
weather to the Southwest and prob
ably inaugurate the season OF tine
harvest conditions which we COM
monty enjoy during the last half .
September and the greater part o
October.
Whatever may be the result Of tht
rains in Texas, where crops had al
| ready been injured by the drouth O
August, there has been no damag'
done in the district tributary to tn
| New Orleans market which a spel
Of bright and dry weather will no
make good. The yields Of our prln
cipal crops still promise to be lib
| eral, and even in the case of rice
which has suffered the most fror
| the delay to the harvest and dam
age to the quality Of the grain, tn
prospect will brighten at once Wit
| a return of dry weather.
