many valuable suggestions inado as to eacl :
HnincHtrad t-el tlcnicntH.
The report notes an important fact , as fol
lows :
The years of the present adtmnistratloi
have been marked to a notable dogruo by th
expansion of the public domain for pnvat
settlement.
Tlio history of tno opining of the now In
dian purchase in Oklahoma under the procla
mation of the president , on September 2-
1801 , IB given , when nearly a million acre :
were taken by settlers between noon am
dark ; while 'J.718 Indians were elevated ti
citizenship by taking allotments of 1UO acrci
each.
Judging the future from the past , It Is sale
wo may expect soon to see thoao hundreds o
thousands of ucios not only supporting i
great and prosperous community , but fur
iilshlng n market for our domestic mauufac
turos and pouring surplus agricultural pro
ducts Into the central markets of our coun
* ' - try. For it is n significant fact that a ship
tnent by special train of a cargo of wheat
: from the Oklahoma lands Hvst opened bj
proclamation on April as , 1SSO , was recoivot
ij in August lust at ono of the "Armour" ole
' vators at Chicago , and the population ha ;
already reached bO.OOO.
Tno other Indian reservations also opcnot
f are described aim ft summary given of those
Holds for now colonies of our people.
Over 10,000 Indians have already become
cltizous of the United States , mid about 4OOC ,
i inriro by taking their allotments have sig
nified their desire to become citizens , Tc
these numborsbhould bo added the 7,019 In >
diuns in Oklahoma who have taken or agreed
to take allotments. A total of U7H9 ( Indian !
naturalized , and total of acres acquired foi
ij settlement of about Ii3,000,000 during the
* present administration nlono.
il The number of agricultural patents , whicb
Includes these for homesteads and pro-
i emptlons. Issued during the year was 11400 ! ! ,
i . which , allowing ICO acres to each patent ,
would embrace an aggregate of 1S-'J7COI , '
acres.
The number of agricultural patents , whicb
includes tnoso tor homesteads , Issued foi
I 1889 was 70,111 ; for Ib'JO ' , 117,247 , and for 1891 ,
114l(10 | and there wire loft of ilnal entries
for such lands nt the end of the lust llscal
yoav , Juno HO , IbOl , only 84,173.
Much prominence is given in the report tc
tlio subject of resorvolis and Irrigation ditches
h' for storing surplus water of the streams and
) l convoying it to arid lands. The secretary
deems this subject ono of gtent and pressing
< Importance , and renewing the recommenda
tions made in his previous rooort urges that
congress bo advised to enact , without delay ,
comprehensive laws determining the national
Policy upon this subject.
vi L'uliliu Timber.
' ' Referring to the net ot March 3 , IbOt
' which authorizes the cuttiuc of timber upon
1 the public lands , subject to the rules of the
t department , the secretary states that , while
this act was desirable in some of Its pro-
i visions , it would seem to require further
| amendment. Experience has shown It to bo
I very dlfllcult to preserve .tho public timber
, under laws Imposing penalties for trespassers -
' ors , and It can not bo doubted that punish
ment will bu much loss certain for violations
of department regulations. It is urgently
recommended that congress taUo action to
have reservations established as national
parks , or gran ted to the states to bo pre
served unimpaired nnd used lor the benollt
of the public only. Notice is taiton of several
parks thus already preserved , and It is stated
more are being prepared for proclamation.
The act of congress approved September
29 , 1800 , dcclau'd forfeited unoaincd railroad
lauds , and ordering their restoration to the
pnbllo domain , relieves from suspension
many cases involving lands In railroad limits
whore a portion or all of the roan was built ,
although out of timo. The bonollts resulting
will redound to the settlers who long ago pur
chased their farms from railroad companies
and nro now cultivating the soil.
Indian Affairs.
While It is not claimed that perfection has
yet been i cached In the Indian service , It is
mentioned that in the common judgment of
these familiar with and Interested lu the
welfare of the Indians ibis service has boon
greatly Improved. Tlio Indian population
is reported as 200,483 , exclusive ot natives of
Alaska. The number of Indian youth en
rolled nnd the average attendance In the
schools has increased. The Indians , as a
rule , have consented BO readily to send their
children to sciiool that It was not found nec
essary Immediately to enforce attendance as
authorized by act of March 3 , Ib'.ll. The
grout body of the dllloront tribes bavo
become qulto in favor of schools under the
c-aro of which their Intoroats have been
advanced.
The work accomplished by the different
commissions , authorized by congress , to treat
with the Indians Is reviewed by the secretary
ut length , and an account Is given of tbo
trooblos with the Sioux which culminated
in the light with that trlbo on the
.Pino Ridge reservation in December , IS'.X ) .
There were 22-G3l ilrst payments made on
pensions during the llscal year , requiring
J.lSKi3,274i : | , being loss In amount by $ ti9,59J
than the UtO.M I Urst payments of the pre
vious year reejulred. The average vnluo of
llrat payments In llscal year of 1890 was
$185,71 , whllo the average vnluo In 1S91 of
Ilrst paymniits In all claims was ? - > ; )9.ti ) ! : , and
, Urst payment of claims under the act of Juno
! 37 , 1890 , was only $71.28. The present issue
of cortltlcato * Is about 80.000 pur mouth. The
estimate for 189.1 Is JUI.PoO.OOO. .
The announcement of the population , No
vember 20 , IbW , oj 03tWi , ! U has not boon
changed mid upon that announcement the
apportionment law was passed nearly two
yuan sooner than at prior census periods.
The worn of the patent ofllco shows a slight
fulling oft as compared with the previous
fiscal year. The number | of applications was
43,010 , a-s against 43,810 In IbUO. A surplus
of | l&7,291.t.U was turned Into the treasury to
the credit , of the patent fund.
iii'o'oKionl Survey.
The secretary invites particular attention
to the report of the director of tbo geological
survey. To its investigations and to the uld
U has clvon In ascertaining and mapping the
distribution of of rooks , minerals , and ores ,
fruitless labor in prospecting Is avoided , the
cost of production diminished , and prices
proportionately reduced.
In addition to the direct work upon mineral
resources , topographic surveys have been
fxtoudcd over an area agKregatlut ; 493JO ,
square- mlles In thlrly-nino states and tori
lories covering nearly one-sixth of tl
area of the United States , fcmrvoyi wei
made during the year of 148 cites f
Irrigation reservoirs thirty-three In Oa
forma , forty-six In Colorado , twenty-eight
Montana , two In Nevada , nnd thlrty-nlno
Now Mexico. The secretary dooms th
work of thn survey In arriving at a know
odgn of the facts concerning ttio dlstrlbutli
of the available ) water supply and Its lluctu
lions of the utmost Importance.
The secretary gives an abstract of tl
earnings of the sovcr.il aided railroad cot
panics , showing also the amounts duo fro
them to thogovornmont , IJccombor ill , IS'J
II appears therefrom that the total dot
principal nnd Interest , to the United Stati

urges that some policy should bo adopted an

ICdticatton.
The work of the bureau of education du
ing tlio year was directed , In puMuanso t
the policy heretofore followed , to the collei
tlon and distribution of accurate and pert
ncnt statistical information regarding th
condition of education and the opcraticns <
educational Institutions nt homo nnd nbroac
Owing to want of snfllcicnt appropriatlo
tno publication of a laVgonumburof circulat

promising. The governor of that territory
claims that It now has a population of 1.VJ.-
070 , entitling it to admission as a state am

before of $10 , 887 , 893.137 , or 15,05 per cent.
For the territory of Alaska various recom
mendations are made , principal among then
being the revision and amendment of thi
laws relating to the territory ; the incorpora
tton ot municipalities and for the holding o :
elections : the establishment ot govornmen

National I'arlcs.
The secretary regards it as peculiar and
inexplicable that , congress Imposes upon the
lopartmont tbo custody aud management ol
ihoso reservations , but makes no appropria
tion for that purpose and oven omits to hu
ms o any penalties for violations of the rules
ind regulations required to bo formulated oy

jo desired that the protection of law bo ox-
omloil to these Important possessions.

mont ever the Boals kidnaping case has sul
sided lo n very great extent , principally bi
cnuso of tbo public announcement that Mi
Boals will not prosecute the abductors. Mi
Boals claims that his honor is Involved , hi
cause ho gave his word that ho woul
ask no quottlons If his child wa
only returned. The police say thn
promise related only to the person who re
turned the child nnd ought not to allow hit
to refrain from doing all in his poxvor to con
vlct Mr. nnd Mrs. King noxv under arrest fo
the crime. Despite Iho decline of public In
lernst in tbo case , the prisoners nro still kep
nt Independence nut of the way of a posslbl
attempt at lynching.
The man who returned the child to hi
homo and got the reward Is still boiiij
searched for by the police. No Irnco of bin
has been found , and ibo police believe ho ha

OMUIA , Nov. 127. To Iho Edilor of Tni
Buc : Several latts expressions In TUB Br.i
(
indicate a difference of opinion as to the paj
of Iho election oflicers.
While it is trud < that section 24 of chaptoi
28 , Compiled Statutes of Nebraska , provides
thai "in eltios ot tno first-class Judges and
clerks of election , & , hall each receive the sum
of ? 0 for each election hold in said city , " and
that this section- ; once xvas applicable lo
Omaha , ills certainly true lhat section 13 of
chapter 2la , enacUyl. Jn 1S87 , superseded the
other section above referred fp , so far as
cities of the molropoliiau and llrst-class arc
concerned. It provides that "judges of elec
tion anel poll clerks appointed iu pursuance
of Iho provisions of Ihib chapter snail each
bo ontlllod to receive ? ! ! per day for each
day's so rvico at any registration or election ,
which compensation shall bo paid on the cer
tificate of the city clerk ns to the period of
service , " etc.
As in elections Other than Iho city elections
the election ofliceirs me allowed only $2 a
day , and in this eae the three elections were
conducted by the same officers and at the
same time , perhaps the only difficult ques
tion is , whether the officers shall each bo
paid $3 or * 2 a day. It seems to bo a fact
thatsiomo of tbo election boards , which were
made up mostly of men of undoubted coin-
potency , consumed forty hours or moro in the
work.
For Ihis lime Ihoy are entitled to either S2
or & ! for each Ion hours , if not for each eight
hours ; and perhaps it is as rqasonablo to say
the daily rate should bo 83 as'to say it should
bo $2.
The conclusion follows that the authorities
who employed these mon cannot discharge
their obligations to them by the payment of
SO to each.
There is good reason to believe that each
of them could enforce the payment of about
txvico that amount , and xvould then have no
more than fair pay. B. F. COUIIIAX.

ever , that some sore of plan will bo mapf od
out before the winter is over. On the demo
cratic sldo the elctrioo of license will bo an
obstacle to overcome. Kvery locality seems
to have Its own idea of what "high" license
is. At Davenport , for Instance , it Is said
Ihnt the license has never been over $100 n
\-car \ , and a prominent gentleman of that city
said the other day that ho was
Joubtful If any greater amount

my compromise measure that could bo cn-

net is a picture of U'at pass with n gang ol

with whom Mr. Sully has been associated.
The play is not Intense and Its denouement
Is apparent from the start , out it is clean ,

the railroad president is taken by n stick ,
