to use dynamite to remove innumerable
distractions before he could get to the
magazine in which the treasure was
stored.
Dynamite had also to be used in the
operations for salving the silver bars Of

The Empress of ireland is said to be
lying on her side in seventeen fathoms
--1o2 feet of water.
AT this depth, Mr.. Davis said. "a man
cannot remain safely for a longer time
than thirty or forty minutes. He would
have to allow himself. moreover. about
half an hour to get on the surface, the
ascent from the depth being painfully
slow business.
When a man works at these sub
marine depths he Is subject to an alb

four and one-half pounds for every ten

become saturated with nitrogen.
Care in Ascending Necessary.
For this reason he has to be most
careful in ascending to the surface. for
otherwise a sort of effervescence would
be set up in the blood vessels and cause
paralysis.
There is no difficulty in getting divers
for salvage operations. Most of our
men are ex-British navy divers. who
are without doubt the most scientifically
trained in the world.

INDIANS VIEWS As
TO CITIZENSHIP
SECRETARY LANE FINDS THAT
INDIANS DIFFER AS TO NEEDED
LEGISLATION.

Washington, April 21.-Taking OF
polls on pending questions, which is
but one form of the referendum, ap-
pears to be the order. Franklin X.
Lane, secretary of the interior depart
ment. some time ago sent letter to
representative Indians throughout the
country submitting three questions.
The first was: "Do you think it would
be a good thing for you to have your
property and be independent of the
Indian Bureau" Another was: What
reasons have you for thinking so?"
And a third was: What one thing
should the government do for the In.
dians it is not now doing"
Answering the first question, large
majority of the answers agree with
the Administrations Indian policy,
which is that all Indians should be
given their property and made inde-
pendent of the Indian Bureau as rap
idly as they show themselves compe-
tent for citizenship. The writers, how
ever, show a wide range of opinion
as to what proportion of the Indians
are ready for immediate citizenship
and as to what should be the gov
ernment's policy toward those not
ready for the change. AS illustrating
this, Kickapoo wrote: Il am not no
sensible man adding that he was not
capable of becoming a citizen. 81 am
just poor Indian" he wrote, "and a
single man besides"
An Oklahoma Kiowa wrote that the
government should encourage Indians
to retain their property, and should
be forbidden to sell it for a period
of years. He explains one reason the
Indian is anxious to sell is the fact
that the whites are insisting that the
lands be taxed and force their sale so
as to make them taxable. Another
KloWa answered that II lhe lnuldhs
had their money, they could make i'm
provements on their land and that
if the money was spent foolishly, it
would be the Indians fault A third
Kiowa took the view that I'VE are
dependent and useless because we
have never had chance to do any.
thing He comments that so long
as the Indian has money in the Unit
ed States Treasury he would not dc
much work.
An oklahoma Usage told the depart
ment that he believed the segre'
cation of young Indians in schools

was bad. Such students do not have
the opportunity of mingliug with the
white boys and girls, and as a result
they only know the language of the
whites, not their customs or habits.
Whisky peddlers and grafters seek
the friendship of the Indian boy,
the writer declared, because he has
money. The young full-blood should
be placed in district, township or city
schools, he says.
The department was told by an
Aarapaho of Oklahoma that members
ofthat tribe were like babies" and
would be helpless if turned loose. A
Creek Indian said that if Indians are
made independent, some would fail,
but such would be equally true fifty
years hence. No greater blessing
could come to the Indian, he said,
than to be compelled to think for
himself.
The following is a comment made
by a Cherokee: The cooperative
spirit which once existed among the
Indians, under tribal government, has
been destroyed, and there is a grow
ing belief that the government in
tends to support the people, and not
the people to support and maintain
the government"
