Now that the American people
at large have had sufficient time to
digest and express their opinion
relative to the action of Judge
John Cavelry, of Chicago, in re-
fusing to infict the death sentence
on Loeb and Leopold, the hoy
murderers, it is interesting to note
that almost without exception the
judge is being emphatically con-
demned for his lenincy. Not en-

abnormally vicious or had a long
list of crimes charged against
them, but more 50 because of the

Indian Denied Protection
Of Our Courts.

Uunder existing law, the Secre
tary of the Interior is given exclu-
sive authority to determine the
validity of all wills made oy "Bu.
reau Indians" disposing of their
estates, and to likewise, in the
event they die without leaving a
will, to determine their heirs, and
the share of each heir il the estate
of the deceased Indian. This un-
usual power thus conferred upon
the Secretary of the Interior, is
substantially the same authority as
is today exercised by the Probate
Courts of our various States.
While the law confides the duty
of performing this work upon the
Secretary of the Interior, the work
is in fact done in the Indian Blu.
reau, under the direction of the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs.
Our Probate Courts are established
with all the usual restraints and
protection to litigants as exist in
our entire judicial system. With
the Indian, our Indian Bureau
System has its own private court, .
with its own laws of procedure. 1t
alone is the Judge, Jury and
Sheriff, and at the Courts"
pleasure the Indian is heard or not.
1t is estimated that the value of
Indian estates annually passed up
on by the Bureau is in excess OF
$5O,OOO,OOO. 1t is officially an
nounced that for the year ending
June 80, 1922, the Bureau disposed

ways is a large number of estates
dragging into interminable delay.

public are the ways and duings of
this mighty Bureaucracy, but it's

it best that the will should not be

The taking of testimony, the

dian can die with any certainty
that the disposition of his estate
will be made ia conformity with
bis will, or that his heirs will in.
herit his property.
This Bureaucracy's iniquitous
system is in substance as follows:
When an Indian dies leaving a
will, the validity of which is ques.
toned by any person claiming an
interest in his estate, or where an
Indian dies without a will-the
question of determining the validity
of the will, or as to who may be
the heirs of the deceased Indian,
is referred by the Indian Bureau
to one Of its own examiners or
superintendent. He then pro.
ceeds according to the Bureaus
own laws" to hear Testimony"
and then writes up his findings
and transmits the same with the
evidence taken to the Bureau. But
at the same time this "officer"
submits a separate confidential re
port which can be seen and ex.
amined only by the officer and
authorized agents of the Bureau.
In these confidential reports is
contained the examiners statement
as to the credibility, character, and
standing of each witness, based in
many instances Oh what some one
has told the examiner. Also in
these confidential reports, the ex
aminer extensively sets forth his
personal views as to the expediency
of carrying out the terms of the
will, or in heirship, his views as to
recognizing the claims OF persons
claiming to be heirs. These con-
fidential communications are read
by the Bureaus reviewing officers
and used by them as a guide to be
submitted for the PRO FoRMA sig,
nature of some Assistant Secretary.

POWER COMPANIES

Ask Permission From Publi,
 Service Commission
(sTATE CAPITAL BUREAU)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Feb. 29.-A petition for approval of a contract for an important interconnection of three hydroelectric power companies in southeast Alabama was filed with the public service commission today, and set for hearing April z at Montgomery. Granting of the petition will authorize new construction for an interchange of power between the Pea River Power company, which furnishes power to Troy, Brundidge, Elba, Opps, Kinston and Samson the River Falls Power company, which supplies Can't, River Falls and Andalusia with power, and the Houston Power company, which furnishes electric power to Ozark. New ton, Hartford, Geneva and Slocomb in Alabama, and Gracevil1e, Bonifay and Chipley, Fla.
 The contract which the petitioners seek to. have approved provides for es- tablishment of a system for interchange of power between the three companies wherever there may be surplus of power on one and a demand on an- other. Construction of a 33,000-volt transmission line irony Can't to Opp, and a 33,000-volt transmission line from Samson to Geneva, is sought, as well as new construction at several towns necessary to install the system fo4 interchange of power. The contract is for 10 years duration, and the three parties agree to furnish power to one another at IA cents per kilowat hour.
