WAFHINOTON. Ort. 9. Another rhsp
ter In the controversy over the charges
regarding the action of the government
In the matter of oil land leases In the
Indian TerrltWV, to which correwi.ondence
President Roosevelt, (invcrnur Haskell of
Oklahoma. Kecretery Garfield and others
hare contributed a formal statement, was
furnished toduy when Acting Secretary
of the Interior Pierce Issued a supple
mentary statement In regard to the Osage
oil land leases.: -
In this Mr. Pierre rays that as there
has been considerable discussion concern
ing the leases of these Osage lands,
coupled with .charges that the present ad
ministration failed to safeguard the in
terests of the Indians and In fact sacri
ficed their Interests, Jie thought it well
to set forth "In skeleton form the exact
truth about this matter."
The statement adds:
Test of 'Statement.
In 196. during a democratic administra
tion, the entire Os.'.ge reservation, 1.470.001)
acres of land, was li'.ised for oil purposes
to a certain F. H. Foster for ten years
from March li. JK91. the rate of royalty
being fixed at Id per cent. On March S.
jftio. a year before the K.istor. lease would
terminate, congress provided definitely by
statute 133 Htat. ltill fjr a renewal of this
lease as to fiVi.mo acres of land, with the
provlsi that tiie president of the. United
Htatrs shall determine the amount - of
royalty to be paid for oil. K'lld determina
tion sl:Hil bb evidenced by filing with . the
secretaiy of the interior, on or before De
cember 31. 116, such determination.
It should he. noted that congress left the
president and the secretary absolutely no
power or duty with regsrd to the lease ex
cept that when the I. a.irt was presented "to
determine the royalty to be. paid for oil."
Congress determined the fact that there
area of the leaso and the term for which
It was to run. At that time It was not
known that the leasee was allied to the
Standard Oil company and the department
has reason to believe that there Is now
such alliance, but has no certain knowledge
aa to this matter, which, so far as the de
partment is concerned. Is wholly immaterial
as In any event the secretary of the In
terior would treat all oil companies exactly
alike as long as they obeyed the laws.
Moreover In this especial case the depart
ment had power to do nothing except
recommend to the president the rate of
royalty.
Royalty ta Increased.
The commissioner of Indian affairs m
Vestlgated the question of what would be a
reasonable and adequate royalty for oil and
recommended to the secretary an increase
from 10 to 12 per cent. The secreiary ap
proved this rej ort and forwarded It to the
presld nt June 3, 1& The president on the
same date approve.i the re om i.en.lailon of
the secretary and thtis f.xed the roja ty of
14 pr Cf nt Instead of Hi per cent.
It Is to be noted that this waa an Increase
of 25 per cent In royaJty In force before
that time, also that at that time and until
May 1, 1908, the rate allowed for leases
In the F.ve Civilized Trlfces , was 10 per
will, uavuin urnii m I fhrch ihbi nprillK III
12V4 per rent by Secretary Oartleld in con
formity with the ptesldent's previous action
for the Osige oil; also that througntout
the o.I fields of Texas? Kansas and the
east ths rate of 10 per cent Is the usual
one, and rates above 12H er cent are tei
dom obtained even by land owners of busi
ness acumen.
BRADSTR tSK T'S It 15 VIEW OF TRADE!
Reports Are Somewhat Irregalar,
Owing to Weather Coadltlona.
NEW YORK, Oct. . Bradstreet's tomor
row will say:
Although trade reports are somewhat Ir
regular In character owing largely to vary
ing weather conditions In different sections
of the country and uncertainties caused by
Impending elections, the general undertone
Is toward sustained Improvement. Country
trade has been comparatively quiet, be
cause the farmers have been taking ad
vantage of the ideal weather to complete
their harvesting. However, the heavy mar
keting of crops haa made for an Increased
railway tonnage and improved collections
considerably, while exports of wheat are
heavy. Iron and steel are quiet, impend
ing elections being a deterrent Influence,
but production' Is Increasing in anticipation
of forthcoming good business and there
Is more doing In other Industrial lines.
There Is less Industrial Idleness, and in
some Instances business Is developing for
the first quarter of 19C9. especially In
hoes, lumber and pig Iron.
The pig Iron production for September
exceeded that of August by 4.2 per cent
and It iwas the heaviest total recorded
since November last, while it represents
an Increase of 35 per cent over January,
1WJ8. However, the decrease from Septem
ber, lisff, reaches 35 per cent. Basic pig Is
fairly active in the east, and apparently
prices are easier. Consumers' stocks are
aid to be low, and this fact tends to

Across a narrow sea from England la a
little country which, though densely popu
lated, has practically no paupers, nor do
the people emigrate. This Is thrifty Bel
glum, where there Is thrift of the Indi
vidual, thrift of the family, co-operative
thrift, national thrift, and prosperity In the
face of the keenest competition ef Its
powerful neighbors, England, Franca and
Germany.
The government, Instead of paying; old
age pensions and dispensing charity, has
machinery for the encouragement of thrift
and thereby for the prevention of depend
ence. It pays the Individual Interest on
Ms savings. It Insures his life and' it ' wtll
give him an annuity If he save to pay
for It
In the government savings bank,' deposits
may be made In every postofflce of the
kingdom and in all branches of the na
tional bank. The minimum deposit Is 1
franc. There is no maximum. Deposits
are made by special adhesive deposit
stamps, which are. In reality, receipts for
the money paid In, and which are pasted
In a bank book delivered to each depositor
free of charge and bearing an official num
ber. In this book is entered every trans
action between the depositor and the bank.
Including the calculating of interest, which
Is done annually. Depositors may corre
spond with the national savings bank free
of postal charges and, after the issue of a
book, a depositor may put money in any
postofflce of the kingdom.
The government provides In a special
way for ' those who cannot put aside so
large a sum aa a franc at ' a time. It
authorizes, smaller, deposits by postage
stamps In order to enoourage school . ohll
dren, farm laborers and the like, and rural
postmen carry with them the necessary
forma for this purpose,- and urge the pub
lic to make use of the savings bank In
this way.
- Life annuities may be contracted for at
all branches of the savings bank,' at all
branches of the national bank, at all post
offices and at the offices of all tax re
ceivers. .
The minimum payment that may be made
la 1 franc, and the smallest annuity paid
by the fund la 1 franc, while the largest
Is 1,200 francs. The annuities become paya
ble at the end of each completed year from
the age of 60 to 65.
Annuities are contracted for In two ways,
by . paying in the capital benefit to any
heir, and by providing that the capital, less
8 per cent for general expenses, shall be
paid over to the heirs after the death of
the beneficiary. Any person who depends
solely upon his own work for his sus
tenance, and who, before the-age stipulated
for the payment of the annuity, becomes
disabled. Is allowed to . draw at once an
annuity calculated upon from the amount
of the payments made up to the time of
his becoming incapacitated.
In addition to the annuity fund there U
a government insurance fund, the manage,
ment of 'which is under government guar
antee. Life or endowment policies may be
contracted for, the latter payable at the
end of ten, fifteen, twenty or twenty-five
years, or for a period ending at the ages
of 66, 60 or 68 years. Boston Globe.

from the soil by the use or a magnet, re.

stone on the south bank of the South Loup
river, at the point where the Nantasket
bridge spans the stream, and Wednesday
they drove out there to Investigate It.
They found a ledge of material which had
the appearance of stone, but It Is in fact a
very hard kind of clay, which when dried
can be crushed Into a powder as fine aa
flour. One member of the committee
thinks it might be utilised in the manufac

what la called "Spanish" clay with linseed

Nebraska Pears by the Wagonload The
small boys of Peru were treated to a sight
yesterday which strained the capacity of
their salivary glands to the fullest extent
as the pear crop was being hauled through
the city to the canning factory by the
wagonload. Manager Lowe of the factory
has been handling every wind of fruit In
season, and yesterday he began the can
ning of a fine quality of pears, delivered
by several promlnentt rrult growers in
this dlstriot. Students of ths State Normal
school who came from western Nebraska,
where they do not aee pears grow, stood
on the street corners with mouths watering
and watched the heavily laden wagons
pass slowly by te ths factory. Compara
tively few people, even In the fruit section
here, are used to seeing fine large pear
in wagonload. Peru Correspondence.

Consider now the candidate and hearken
unto his lamentation.
He ariseth in ths morning; and beholdeth
In the paper roorback which he starteth
out, break fast less, to squelch; and ere the
setting of the sun he hath run Into four
more, all even worse than the first, and
harder to disprove.
He salth In his haste all men are liars,
and on second thought he repeateth It
with a qualifying adjective.
He learneth from a perusal of the par
tisan papers that he stole a sheep, even
an ewe lamb, In his boyhood, and a horse
In his prime, while the rumor that h had
exacted tribute from the corporations when
hs was in public pay hath yet to be nailed.
Ha cryeth out with a loud voice In the
market placea, saying: "Behold me; I am
not seeking this office, but I am afraid
that If I keep still the office may collar
some Incompetent by mistake, and I am
a patriot. I have been urged by my friends
to run and In a few more days I ahall do
so unless things begin to look more favor
able. .
And he reflected bitterly: 'Behold,
when I started upon this campaign I had

now I become an object of suspicion to
my neighbors, and my family will not an

things that I have done that were not com
mendable, but he als hath learned of
seventeen criminals acts of which I was
never guilty, and verily those things I
have not done are worse even than the
things I have done."
He fain would publish the list of his
campaign contributions, but that he fears
that If the enemy should learn how little
he hath raised his defeat would be easy,
and that If It were known how much he
hath and whence It came it would be still
easier to defeat him.
Bo It cometh to pass that he beateth his
head upon the hardwood floor and cryeth
with a loud voice yet again: "Woe Is 'me
and woe are all my brethren, for we are
even aa the two men, one of whom Is afraid
and the other daasent."
And he longeth for the next few weeks
to pass quickly that the agony may be
over and he may begin to recover his self
respect and the respect of his family and

Old-Time Sweethearts Wed.
More than forty years ago Frank Faulk
ner of Kingston and Barah E. Seymour, a
young belle of Baugertles, twelve miles
north of Kingston. N. Y., met at a country
dance, fell in love with each other, and be
came engaged to be married. The bride-to-be
was a cousin of Governor Horatio
Seymour of New York statt, and Faulk
ner was a member of one of the leading
families of that time In Lister county.
Faulkner and his fiancee quarreled and
the engagement was broken. They re
fused to become reconciled and each mar
ried some one else. Faulkner and his bride
went west. Barah Seymour married a man
of the same name, although not a kins
man, and she and her husband also went
west.
Mrs. Faulkner died, and the husband of
Sarah Seymour died In another frontier
town. Neither Faulkner nor the affianced
girl of his youth knew of the other's
bereavement.
Mrs. Seymour moved to Nebraska, and a
few years ago settled at Schuyler, In that
not only hath the enemy found out all the
state. After wandering over t!ie west
Faulkner, too, moved to Nebraska, but to
another part of the state. A couple of
months ago he moved to Schuyler.
Excursions to the east proved attractive
to the two Schuyler residents, who had
not visited their native Ulster county since
they left It forty years ago. They came
east the same day. but by different routes.
One day the steamer Hendrlck Hudson
was pushing Its prow through the Hudson
river aa Its pilot steered for Kingston
Point, and a large crowd gathered on the
lower deck eager to step ashore. Foremort
among the crowd was an elderly woman
of commanding appearance, whose looks
belted her years. Beside her stood a stout,
well preserved man, upon whose gray hair
a bread sombrero fitted like a crown.
"Pardon me, but would you mind telling
me how I can reach SaugertiesT" Inquired
the woman of the gray-haired man.
"I'm not sure," he responded. "I used to
live there, but It's forty years since I
went away."
"Forty years,' repeated the woman.
There was a tremor In her voice that
caused the gray-haired man to look sharply
at her.
"Barah," he said, aa he held out his
hand, and as the woman looked Into his
eyes her own eyes filled with tears and
she only said:
"Frank."
Fifteen minutes before clrniag time they
visited the city clerk's office, and .asUed
for a marriage license.
