Mr. Ilutlor said ho had visited, such schools nnd had ob served there wero children present who wero not Indiana, nnd asked what propor tion of Indlnn blood was necessary to secure udmUslou to Hiich schools. Mr. Thurston answered that no children nro received unless they nro regarded as Indians by tho tribes. Ho had, ho said, seen In n tcpeo with a woman, ovlden'; an Indian squaw, children of, her own who had rod hair. It wus Jmposslhlo, ho said, to exclude children from tho schools merely because they might have red hair or n light skin. f Mr. Butler inslstTd that many of tho children who wero njtondlng Indian schools wero whltn nnd thil '"''.'.r.utAa Indian HchooPapproprlatlon 5WWf,,!W? .and no torious.

Mr. l'ettlgrow of South Dakota expressed tho opinion that the whole Indian school system ought to bo overhauled. Ho was Inclined to believe that many of the Indian Hchnols In tho oast might bo bettor abolished nnd In this connection ho rcfrcd to the Carlisle m-hool. Mr. 1'ottlgrow mado a ilgorous attack upon tho Dawes Indlnn commUnion, asserting that thoro wns no moro corrupt1 or oxtravagnnt body In tho scrvlco ot tho United States than that com mission. Ho attacked particularly tho In erenso from $30,000 to $300,000 of tho ap propriation for the commission. Ho be lieved tho work done by tho npprnlsers of tho Indian lands could bo done for 10 per rent of whnt tho government, was paying for It. Mr. Jones of Arkansas maintained that Iho criticism by Mr. l'ettlgrow of tho Dawes commission, wns not well founded In nny respect. Tho expenditures made by tho commission for tho appraisal of lands were, he maintained, absolutely necessary In order that tho distribution ot the Indian lands might bo mado Justly nnd with careful regard to tho rights of tho tens of thou sands of persons Interested. The work, Mr. Jone3 said, was being done economically nnd thoroughly. A resolution wns adopted providing for tho rending of Washington's farewell ad dress on February 22, by a member of tho senate.

Mr. Itlxey, democrat of Virginia, n mem ber of tho muni committee, opposed tho provision in tho bill for thn Increaso of tho navy, on tho ground thnt tho recent contracts for tho navy would absorb for tho present tho capabilities of our ship yards. Mr. nixoy said that if tho building of tho navy was rushod along at an In ordinate rato for a few yoars, now Inven tions might mako many of our Bhlps obso lete. He w.iB In favor of going Blower. Mr. Wheeler, democrat of Kentucky, re plying to Mr. Itlxey, contended that tho democratic parly always had bocn In favor of a strong navy. "Is the gentleman aware." Interposed Mr. Foss, "that William J. Bryan on tho Jloor of this houso In 1S90 opposed the further construction of ships?" "William J.

(Republican laughter and cries of "We thought ho was,") Mr. Mxcy offered an nmertdment to strike out tho entire provision for tho In crenso of tho navy.

Republican senators ore carefully watching tho republican legislature of Ne braska In 11b efforts to gel together nnd elect two republican senators from that state to tho upper houso of congress.

Tho appropriation of JS.OOl) for the Onitiha Indian supply depot, which wn3 adopted by tho committee on Indian affairs, was ac cepted by tho seriate today. In this con nection It 1b Interesting to note that the civil service commission Is Jumping on the commissioner of Indian affairs for having appointed Superintendent Jordan, tho claim being that the superlntcndeucy Is In the control of tho civil service. Commissioner Jones cannot see It that way and says ho proposes to Insist upon his right to make appointments of this character under special legislation.

In other words, Scnntor Kylo lias given It out that ho is n republican, Is so recognized by the" administration nnd by his colleagues In the senate, and thnt bo far ns South Dakota appointments are con cerned his endorsement Is ns potent nnd es sential ns that of other South Dakota party men. Tho first test of this kind will probably occur when Senator-elect Gamble arrives and a recommendation la filed for tho ap pointment of a postmaster at Sioux Falls.
