INDIAN AFFAIRS COM
MITTEE VISITS STATE

A subcommittee Of the House
Committee on Indian Affairs visit
ed New Mexico during the week to
secure first hand Information rela-
tive to the Indians. particularly the
Pucblos, TO guide them IN legislation
now pending in congress.
The party was made up Cf ten
members of the House Of Represen-
tatives as follows Hon. Homer 7
Snyder, New York, chairman Of The
House Indian Committee Hon.
John A. Elston, California; Hon B
c. Hernandez, New Mexico; Hon.
Marion T. Rhodes, Maryland; Hon
r. Clint Cole, Ohio; Hon. NJ Clyde
Kelly. Pennsylvania Hon. Charles D.
Carter, Oklahoma Hon. Carl Hay
den, Arizona; Hon. John r. Tillman,
Arkansas; Hon. William w. Hast
ings, oklahoma; and two secretar-
les
The party reached Santa Fe Sun
day morning and visited the Tescque
Pueblo, nine miles north of the CITY,
where they met representatives Of
five or six different Pueblos and
heard their desires, particularly with
reference TO the restoration of lands
which individual members of the df-
ferent tribes had sold to other peo-
pie, and some of which has been oc e.
cupied by the purchasers for periods
ranging from ten to nearly two
hundred years. The occupants OF
such lands were also present to be
heard. 1t is claimed that the indiyi-
dual Indians had no right to dispose
of the lands which were community
property which is probably true. but
il is also true that in almost every
case the lands sold were not in use
by the Indians at the time, and il
retained, most of them would not be
in use by them today, whereas the
occupants have reclaimed, improved
and made continuous use of them
and have undoubtedly established
such rights that they can not now
be disposs sessed. If the Indians have
suffered any damage, which is dou-
btful, it should be adjusted by help
ing them to better improve the lands
they actually occupy, which can be
done to great advantage.
After the return of the committee
they were entertained for lunch at
the Indian school in this city and
inspected the same. after which they
went on TO Albuquerque, where they
visited the Indian school there, the
next day, and then pursued their
journey on to Arizona and Caiifor-

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM
PROPOSALS FRAMED

Findings of the special committee

presentation to the Chicago conyen-

The committees suPge stions. split

STAR PARTS FOR WOMEN
AT C. o. p. CONVENTION

Women are to play a star part in
the coming national Republican con-
yention which opens in Chicago
June 9Th.
The fact that women are to serve
as delegates at large and voting del
/ egates to the convention forms an
, interesting contrast TO the first en-
trance OF women in party politics
thirty-two years ago.
A. writer in one OF the current
magazines calls attention TO the fol-
lowing facts which show how much
more generous the Republican party
has been TO women than has the
Democratic.
In 1888 Mrs Ellen Foster OF Iowa
founded the National Women's Re-
publican Association which was re-
cosnizci by tde National Republi-
can lommittec
Democratic women were not rec
ognized by the Democratic party
until 1912"
Three women, Mrs John Clover
south OF Frankfort Ky, Mrs. Man
ley Fosseen Of Minneapolis, MINI,
and Miss Minnie Bunnell al Duluth
have been selected by the Republi-
cans OF their states to be delegates
al large TO the RepubI can National
Convent on.
he advent OF women into party
politics in 1888 came during the cam.
paign OF Benjamin Harrison. For the
iirSt time women issued campaign
Literature. A series of pamphlets ap-
pcaling to women and men alike
were prepared. They were known "a
the Home and Flag Series"
In 1894, Republican women enter
ed heartily into an -Tammany
campaign IA greater New York. Re
publicans and liberal Democrats uni
ted on q fus on candidate Mrs. Jos-
ephine Shaw Lowell organized the
women who arranged meetings and
financed them themselves. The fus-
ion forces won.
The following year, 1905, Miss
Helen Narick Boswell was elected q
delegate from New York 10 the con
vention of the National League of
Republican Clubs i'm Chicago AT that
0 me women voted only in Idaho.
Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming.
In 1890 the year of the McKin-
lev campaign, the New York State
Republican Committee opened head.
quarters for women ON Broadway.
This was the first time New York
women took An active part in q pre-
ideu.ia. campaign
Women's headquarters were
ma antaincd by the Republican Com
mittee in Chicago and Denver dur
ing this campaign.
AT the Republican convention IN
Philadelphia in 1900, when McKin-
ley was renominatcd a large number
of women were present and special
womer'e headquarters were main

more enticing, the weather can al
ways be depended upon to be cool
and regular in the summer time in
the Capital City.

freezes during April have retarded
the alfalfa till the early hay could
not be cut before the tenth OF the

lack Of water during the winter sea-
son have been injured more severe
ly than those having supply OF mo-
