The Frigate Constellation.

A FEATURE of the Star Spangled
Banner celebration at Baltimore
was the presence in Baltimore harbor
of the historic warship Constellation.
The Constellation was built at Balti-
more, but perhaps there are few tim
bers in her now that were in her when
she was launched lit years ago.
The Constellation is a remarka BILE
ship, and Washingtonians have an In
terest, or should have an interest in
her for number of reasons. She was
tied up at the Washington navy yard
more than century ago, and she was
at that yard in 1871. She has plowed
the waters of the Potomac river, and
perhaps a good many of the older peo-
pie of the city will recall, now that
the Rambler mentions it, that the Con-
ste1lation was aground off the ar
senal point for five days in November,
1871.
It may be that the Constellation will
return to Washington and become one
of the patriotic exhibits of the capital
Rear Admiral Victor Blue, in his re-
port to the Secretary of the Navy. as
chief of the bureau of navigation for
the fiscal year 1913, wrote:

Yet that is just what this great federal
government is calling upon the restricted

saws to do Is it any wonder that they
are retrograding?
THE plan I propose is fully set forth
in bill introduced by me during the
first session of the Sixty second Congress,
and which was favoraby reported by the
House committee on Indian affairs, but
did not receive favorable action for rea-
sons which can be made obviously plain.
Briefly stated, the outline Of the plan is
this:
THE federal government should first
establish distinct line between the COM
petent and incompetent Indians in Okla
homa- There is a distinction now made
along the lines of quantum of blood, but
that as an arbitrary rule is inadequate,
for many of the full-blood Indians are
highly civilized and enlightened. and per-
haps the superior of some of the mixed
bloods. The efforts of the Indian bureau
should first be directed to the purpose of
