TIMBER FROM INDIAN
LAND TO BENEFIT TRIBE

| SALEM, Or, March 12.-Iands in
the Klamath Indian reservation will
mot De opened for settlement until the
Timber thereon is removed and sold
flor the benefit of the tribe accord
ing to letter received at the state
executive office from the departmnt
of the interior following receipt in
| Washington of a joint memorial ad-
opted at the recent special session of
the Oregon legislature asking congress
to take action to the end of populat-
ing these lands with white settlers.
THE unallotted lands of the Klam-
Iath reservation consist principally of
heavily timbered tracts" says the let
ter received by Governor Olcott.
These lands are not suitable for
farming and home making purposes.
and for that reason they are being held
as tribal asset for the benefit of the
Indians.
I'VE are aware that there has been
considerable agitation recently from
certain quarters of the question of dis
posing of these lands, but for the rea-
Isons already stated this department
IS not in favor of disposing of the
lands at this time, either to the In
dians or the general public. On the
other hand, it is believed to be in the
best interests of the Indian to hold
the lands in their present status until
the timber thereon can be sold and
removed for the benefit of the tribe.
AS evidence of our intentions in
making this policy effective we are
now selling timber on a large scale
from the klamath lands, and using
the proceeds for the benefit and the
industrial advancement of the Klam-
ath Indians

EYES TELL SEAT OF DISEASE
Application of "Iris Science" 1t Is AS
serted, Is Practically Certain
Diagnosis.

Just as we find the state of the
weather by reference to a barometer,
so can we tell whether person is in
good health by examining the eyes.
This method of diagnosing disease
from the eyes is known as the
"iriscience," and, according to DR.. An
deron of Denmark, is the only reliable
method by which the seat of disease
can be discovered.
The science was discovered by a
Hungarian, according to London An
swers. During boyhood he caught an
owl which had broken its leg. and
noticed that a black spot appeared
in a certain part of the iris. Some
years later he noticed the same black
spot in the iris of man who had sus-
tanned a broken leg. The experience
caused him to investigate and he
found that every disease could be
read from a certain portion OF the
iris.

25 years of study of the apes in their
native African jungles convinced him
that they have a sense of government,
a sense of propriety, dignity, family
life, justice, and that they talk in a
language of about 20 words. Unlike
the apes, the monkeys merely utter
sounds without talking. In the curl
