Pensions for ex-Presidents
BY DR. FRANK CRANE tCopyright. 1921. by Frank Crane)

The proposal has often been made, but never acted upon to pension exPresidents of the United States
 It would seem that there could hardly be two opnlol upon this among people of any maturity of Judgment
 who has been President naturally finds 1t df ficut to be anything else He is longer his man. We have laid our hand him. henceforth his soul Is public
 Not for his sake but for he should be set apart and kept free from the competitive struggle
 For we could not afford to have him lose. He could not be disgraced fail in business in any wise be entangled in economic embarrassment without shaming us all. He Is if father
 Plain decency demands that who has stood for before kings and spoken in the councils of earth should be considered in consecrated.
 Mr. Wilson expects to take up work lawyer, as Mr. Harrison and MT. Cleveland did, and as Abraham Lincoln expected to do. But 1t hardly becoming for such advocate to plead before the very judges he once appointed
 An ex-President ought to function as permanent to know than any else the most vital matters of the State and surely his word ought to have weight It is rather disgusting to conceive of politics utterly partisan affair, entirely matter of grudgeS and vulgar reSentmentS, small passions and greeds for precedence that unceremoniously kick out and forever ignore after March Fourth the man whom before that time we were proud to honor. It looks dirty, and it is dirty.
 MT. Calder has introduced into the Senate, and Mr. Dyer into the House, bill providing pension of $1OOOO year for life for ex-Presidents. The sum should be $25,o00 at least.
 We are the richest nation in the world We are self. respecting and fair-minded people, We not bitter blathersktes snarng Bolsheviks. In not busi house in the country would president and general manager be unceremoniouSly excluded entirely from tering the works after four eight years of service of most intimate knowledge of affairs and of full spOnSlblllty.
 Let us be as decent in public as in private.

evFREpERIc J. HAsKIN

WASHINGTON, D. c., Apru 70 There are several thousand individ- uals<in the country who are apout to have the boon of American citlzen- shin conferred upon them by congress Of the United States. and who protest vigorously against that honor. They protest on the simple ground that they cannot compete with other citi- zens of this country in the grand game known as business They know that to become citizens means for them to become paupers. Most of the people who are urging citizenship upon them, know this, too.
 These "aliens are not foreign born. On the contrary. their ancestors have been here for several million years, and came originally from Asia py way of Boring strait. These people who are trying to escape citizenship are the Pueblo Indians of New Mex ico. The measure which threatens to thrust it upon them is the Indian citi- zenship bill. introduced into the last congress and likely to be passed by this one It provides that the Indians who are now wards of the govern ment shall be made citizens and that their property, which the government has held in trust for them. shall be divided among them to use as they please. The bill makes exceptions of several tribes which are supposed not tn be qualified for citizenship. but it makes no exception of the Pueblos- despite the fact that they are consid- cred by many to be utterly unfit for citizenship and have made a special plea to be excused from it.
 Friends of the Pueblos are making a determined effort to have these In- dians spared the burdens of citizen ship They are doing this not onlv for the sake of the Indian, who will almost certainly lose his lands if he is not protected by the government but also for the sake of the country at large, which, with the breaking up of the Pueblo villages, will lose a treasure of the greatest historical and scientific Value-one which has given pleasure to thousands of Ameri- cans and will give pleasure to thou sands more. The Pueblos are valu- able as Yellowstone National park and Niagara Falls are valuable. They are nicturesdue and charming in themselves. they afford a wonderful glimpse of America as it was before Columbus came, and an opportunity kept their customs and beliefs un- changed through four centuries oi contact with Spanish and American civilization
 The Disappearin0 Indian
 Practically every other Indian tribe in America has lost its original char acter. and inevitably so. The Navajo who was a marauder and a nomad has become a peaceful sheep herder The Apache. who out-fought and out generated the soldiers of Snain ano of the United States for two centur- ies, has become a dirty, idle fellow

too, they should be left as they are. More and more money is brought into that state every year by persons who are attracted by the picturesque and historical features of the state, and of these the Pueblos are one of the most interesting. Hotels are being
 built to accommodate the growing
 throng of tourists to that colhtry. and companies are organized to show Pueblo dances and festivals are one cf the chief attractions which these companies have to offer.
 Whence. then, comes the demand
 that the Indians be given citizenship
 There seems little doubt that 1t
 comes primarily from certain power
 ful persons who have cost cove.ous
 eyes upon the Indian lands. These
 lands are tiny patches upon the great
 extent of the southwest. but they
 are rich and valuable It is now inn
 possible to buy them But when they
 have been divided into individual ai- lotments. each Indian will have the right to sell his own. He will not
 want to sell. but the white man will know how to get around that diff
 culty The Indians will be encoCr- aged to go into debt and their lands will be attached and sold. The meth
 ods of accomplishing .nis have been
 brought to a high degree of perfec- ton in taking their lands away from
 the MexIcans. These people are be- | ing rapidly converted from coatented small farmers into poor Iaborcrs. Il is easy to get them in debt. A through and the loss of a crop furnishes an | opportunity. Sickness, funerals, mar l riages, are all occasions for lending
 money. Sometimes the thing is done | fairly Sometimes tne Mexican $ induced to sign papers he cannot read | Sometimes he barters away his home when he is drunk.
 All of these methods can ,e a piled to the Indian more easily than to tnc 1 Mexican because the Indian knows | even less of business and is even more | of child Soon the Pueblo .ands will have passed into the hands of and | speculators and the Indians will have | gone forth to struggle for living as | laborers. Soon the great comuEa | houses. the dances and feasts and | ceremonies. the pottery and baskets | and jewelry of silver and turquoise | will be no more. The traveller, ihe | artist and scientist will look in yair | for that living vision of the p5s
 which E always so curiously interest | ing The last vestige of 1t will have
 been crushed The steam roller oi | civilization will have finished it, | work for the red man.

 Against this apprehension though already following the London Times which rep resents accurately both the government and the British people:
 Colonel George Harvey is well known in this country the editor of the North American Review He is American of refinement and his scholarship and literary work make him worthy successor in the office which was held by such distinguished Americans as Lowell, Choate and Page
 Colonel Harvey Is journalist of distinction and vigorous writer. He has given nearly 40 years of his life journalism and he is not yet 50 The of Maker of Presidents" might be fitly applied to him. Others in American history have essayed that task, but Colonel Harvey's claim to the distinction unique. had little share the choice of president who has just left the White House, Dem ocrat and the other who has just entered office Republican
 Last summer Chicago, when the Republican convention had reached as deadlock, it Colonel Harvey who brought about the compromise which led the nomination of MT.

Wilson's most bitter critic and his polemics against the president his League of Nations policy a powerful factor in the Republican victory.

SPARE THE PUEBLOS

with a perpetual thirst for firewater. Some of the Oklahoma tribes have become civilized that you can scarcely tell them from their white neighbors. So some Indians have degenerated, some have died out. some have bee nabsorbed by inter marriage, some have gained a foot hold in the civilization that over whelmed their tribes. Only the Pueblos have remained as they were And the reason is simple. The Pueb- los were sedentary Indians when America was discovered. They rep resented the beginnings of a native civilization here. They had already built three story communal apart ment houses, they cultivated the land by an irrigation system which the white men learned from them, they made pottery and cloth. not only with skill, but with an art which is ad- mirable.
 These Indians were not warlike and needed nothing but the permission to live in their strange houses and cul- tivate their lands. They were ca pablo of remaining a part of civiliza- ton without change This fact was appreciated by the Spanish colonial administrators who confirmed and protected the Pueblos in the posses sion of their lands. Mexico did the
 
 pendent of Spain. and when the United States took possession of New Mexico in 1S46, the treaty We made with Mex ico once more confirmed the Pueblo in his possession of the land and made it possible for him to sell it. That is why the Pueblo remains today as a curious and beautiful survival Of primitive America.
 Value of PuebIos
 More and more the Pueblo is being appreciated by artists, scientists and | by Americans in general who travel | When he holds one of his stranNf dances, hundreds, sometimes thou sands, of spectators come to watch Every year a regiment of learned sci entists goes to New Mexico to study the Pueblos and another regiment of artists goes to paint them. An l art colony has been formed at Taos An interesting development in this | connection is that some young In 1 dians have learned from the artists ] how to paint and have shown high ability. They have never learned l business and they do not take to
 modern agricultural machinery, but they learn how to pant readily and | instinctively. They are a race of i artists and dreamers. They have no | desire to become citizens and engage ! in business. They have no training l for such work and no aptitude. | That these Indians should be pre- 1 served as they are and allowed to i live their natural lives for their own | sake and for the sake of science and | art and the travelling public is a point | which scarcely seems to need labor
 ing. For the sake of New Mexico,
