Looking After Indian Lands

+. M. CARRIER, an attache of
Supt. Wilson of the government
Indian affairs, with headquarters
at Roseburg is again in this
territory looking after the inter-
ests of the Piute Indians in their
land holdings in this Valley. Mr..
CARRIER has visited here several
times in his official capacity and
made necessary arrangements to
dispose of tracts of indian lands.
The sale of several of these tracts
was advertised for February IS,
but was postponed for 80 days.
II seems Rye Grass Grange had
filed a complaint as to the method
of sale and the matter had been
taken up by Congressman Laff-
erty at Washington. The Gran
gers didn't want the land sold as
advertised and wanted it restrict
ed TO small tracts for each bid
and only those who would agree
to go upon the lands and make
it their home were to be permit
ted to bid. Mr.. CARRIER went out
last Saturday and after a meet
ing with the Changers the mat
ter was explained and they have
withdrawn their objections.
While here Mr.. CARRIER is hav-
ing more hearings and establish
ing heirships to deceased allotees
and such as desire to sell will
sign up and more of the lands
will be placed on the market and
the Indians given the money.
He is also looking into the pos
sibilities of leasing some of the
lands to white men who have
been using them more or less for
some years. Mr.. CARRIER will see
that the Indians are given an
adequate rental price and pro-
tected in every way.

in. One important matter dis
posed of this morning was the
purchase of the old public school
building and grounds for the high

the school is now occupying the

could not be leased FOR next year;
as the high school has outgrown
the quarters formerly provided
for it there was an emergency
which must be met.

urged against free cattle, declaring

MISS AND MRS.

There is an effort made in certain
quarters to ignore the distinction be-
tween Miss and Mrs, as applied to
married and single women At a re-
cent women's convention at Chicago
the presiding officer, who was an un-
married woman, had her cards print
ed with Mrs preceding her name. 1t
is understood that this is simply a
symptom of a widespread movement
OF course. the idea is to destroy this
class distinction, which induces differ
ent proprieties and rights, which in
both cases should be the same. This
would make the style the same as
holds with men, who use the word
Mr.. to both the married and unmar-
ried- Now IL seems if there should be
a distinction in naming women, in or
der to tell whether they are married
or unmarried, the same distinction
should be made with regard to men.
for it might very often be handy TO
whether a man is single or not At
least a man should appear before so
ciety just what he is, married or IN
married, for all the reasons. and
more, too, that women are SO designat-
ed 1t might be a better reform for
the women to continue their classifca-
ton of Miss and Mrs, and extend to
men the obligation of a like distinc-
ton, SO that the married men cannot
play off as unmarried. which is the
source of SO much complication
