INDIAN IS BIG CARE
Uncle Sam Spends Much Time
and Money on Wards.
Work Of Handling 100000 Red Men,
Owning Property Worth Hundreds
Of Millions, 10 No chiId's Play.

A tremendous amount of time,
money and attention is spent by Uncle
Sam upon his Indians. The official
care of more than 100000 Indians is
something more than mere child's
play, especially when 1t is remembered
that hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of property are owned by the
red men.
During the past three years under
the administration of Secretary Lane
more than $685. 900 has been collected
as tribal royalties on coal and as
phalt lands belonging to the Choctaw
and Chickasaw tribe; for the years
1913, 1914 and 1915, restrictions ON
alienation of 1854 acres of land
were removed, of which $4,000 acres
were sold for the benefit of allottees,
the amount derived from the sale be-
ing $1,56S,000.
For the past three years there was
collected. as royalties of individual
Indians from oil produced on restrict
ed allotted lands, the total sum of S.
563, 600, the highest returns being for
the year 1914. which was $2,113,00O.
OF the original area allotted to men,
.bers of the Five Civilized Tribes,
amounting to over 100000 acres re-
strictions on alienation have been re-
moved by operation of law, by the
secretary of the interior. on over H.
100000 acres, leaving 3,31S,000 acres
retained by only 32,540 restricted In
dams of total number of 1O1,521 en-
rolled members of the Five Civilized
Tribes.
Aggressive work has been carried
on during the same three years In all
other departments of the Indian Of
fee. In that time $1,000 allotments
of land have been made, embracing
more than 2,2S4,O00 acres; the Fort
Peck reservation In Montana has been
opened to settlement and the Colville
reservation in the state of Wash
ington has been opened, making avail
able for homestead entry 100000
acres.
There has also been the withdrawal
of lands in Arizona for the Papago
Indians; the granting of new oil and
gas leases in the Usage reservation,
Oklahoma, on the expiration of the
Foster lease, procuring as bonus
value for the tribe 1920, 900, an in
crease in royalty from 1914 per
cent to 10 % per cent and 20 per
cent on oil, and an estimated in
crease in royalty on gas from 600 to
700 per cent over the amount paid
on the old form of lease, which ex-
pired March 10, 1916.
Competency commissions have been
appointed to pass on qualifications
of Indians to individually handle
their affairs and these commissions
are at work in the Southwest, their
recommendations so far having result
ed in the fee patenting of over 1872
600 acres, thereby placing within the
taxing power of the states of Idaho,
Montana, Oregon, Nebraska, North
Dakota and South Dakota. consider
ably over two and one-half millions
of dollars worth of property.

DEVISE MACHINE TO TEST
THE STRENGTH OF BOXES
Uncle Sans Forestry Engineers Seek
Means of Decreasing Damage to
Shipments in Transit.

Uncle Sam is endeavoring to estab-
fish standard of strength for boxes
in order to reduce the damage caused
by these wood containers breaking to
pieces and scattering their contents as
a result of rough handling in transit.
A machine for testing the strength
of boxes has been devised by engi-
neers Of the forest service and is in
use at the forest products laboratory
at Madison, Wis. The machine Is the
result of experiments made to deter
mine fair test for all types of boxes.
Big losses are caused by the breakage
of boxes In transit, and all parties con-
cerned are said to be anxious to de-
termine the best kind of box.
The machine consists of hexagonal
drum with 31a foot sides, which is
lined with thin steel sheets. Pieces
of scantliIg bolted to the bottom form
what are known as hazards"
In making the tests boxes filed with
cans containing water are placed in
the drum, which is then rotated. The
hazards" cause the boxes to be car
ried part way around ard then
dropped back to the lower level of
the drum. Each fall of this sort Is
a pretty fair imitation of the probable
treatment 1t would receive in ship
ment. The boxes are watched care
fully, and notes are taken on the man.
ner in which they give way and the
number Of falls required to break them
in pieces.
The tests also show the best meth.
DDS of box construction. The experts
say that one Of the most striking
things brought out was the made
quacy of the ordinary methods Of nail
ing up boxes. The number Of nails
used and the way they are put in are
important. One nail more to the side
of box will give 1t great deal more
strength than might be thought. The
mills should not be driven too deep
into the wood. In many cases, 1t is
said, proper mailing will allow reduc-
ton of the amount of lumber used
without any decrease In the. value of
the box. Boxes with cleated ends were
found to be much stronger than those
without cieats.

LANGLEY DIDN'T SPEAK

Representative Langley of Ken
lucky is Republican, and when he
first ran for congress he went to make
a speech In county that was mostly
Democratic. Langley had never been
in the county before until he entered
the race for congress and knew little
about conditions there. One Of the
things he did not know was that the
county was nnted for its almost COM
plete abseice Of colored people. The
people there for years had made
speciality of keeping out the negroes,
simply because they had prejudice
in favor of an exclusively white COM
munity. That being the case, a Dem
ocratic politician named Van zant,
Letter state chairman in Kentucky. ar
ranged with the liveryman where
Langley would have to go for rig,
to give him colored driver.
When Langley arrived innocently
on the scene, alongside Of his colored

SHOUSE LOYAL TO THE HORSE

Representative Shouse of Kansas
represents a district where there is
an automobile to every six persons, yet
he is loyal to the horse, for he used
to live in Kentucky. where he was edi-
tor of the Farmer and Breeder.
"In Kansas we have the heavy
draft horse at its BEST" said Mr..
Shouse. "He belongs to the farm and
does his work well. When we want to
go anywhere we use an automobile,
but 1 know what the thoroughbred
means to the country at large, and
particularly to communities In which
horse breeding Is an economic asset.
"In recent tour through my dis
trict I was forcibly reminded of a
movement which had its inception in
Kentucky in 1898, when a breeders
organization was formed to purchase
all undesirable or barren thorough
bred mares and resell them without
name or pedigree. When / saw the

Of pleasure seekers already here and

Gan thirty days earlier than usual and
that there is every indication that the
Merritt Jones hotel will be taxed to

however, that all visitors making ad-
vance reservations will be sure Of
obtaining splendid accommodations

When the massive photoplay pro-
duction of ramona" is shown at the
Palace theatre tonight, we shall
have the supreme test Of the capacity
of the camera, not only to record beau
tiful scenes of California and pictur-
csque character OF absorbing interest
set in a romance with few peers in
the entire realm of literature. but to
bring to life the genius of new en-
p;re, for such California was at the
reriod of the storT.
Ramona" is said to be magnifi-
cent panorama of the scenic charms
of the Golden State, because its in
cidents were photographed, so far as
was possible, on the very scenes that
Mrs. Jackson ende9red to millions OF
readers in her epic romance. Many
photoplay makers find it necessary to
disguise the fact that their views are
Californian, for dramatic reasons, but
the Clune company is proud of the
fact that every ono of its more than
ten thousand feet of film is the splen-
did lure for the world at large to-
ward the Golden State.
Ramona" is a story of California,
Of the fierce gravity Of the native
dons and the fiercer rapacity of the
onrushing white homesteaders. 1t is
a story that carries sermon, but
the author made Of it something
greater and grandcr than propaganda,
for she put into it the living truth and
vital romance so richly that it cap
turcd the imagination Of the entire
continent.
So great is the interest Of the coun-
try in all things Californian that it
is probable if the producers of "Ra-
mona" advertised it as a faithful
showing of The Land of Hearts De-
circ," thousands would want to see
it in every state.
Hitherto fiction has treated Cali
fornia only as the seat of a new civ
ilizat:on. 1t has been delineated as
the gold hunters paradise, the ad
venturer's Eden, the spectators FL
Dorado. Ramona" pictures it as the
Indians lost inheritance and the Span
;ard's desolated home.
