HOW SOME TREATIESARE MADE Mr, Wocdraffof Wyoming Gives His Ex- perience as a Commissionern GIVING THE INDIANS THE BEST OF IT. Bentiments Which Usually Control Average Appointee on a nmission—The Story of n Western Man, Woodruff, who is in hington, reaches fow in the When Hon. J.8. the city on his way to W the national capital there will be camp of the commission which put in nearly threo nonths last summer in framing a treaty with Shoshone and Arapaboe Indians. Mr. Woodruff was chaicman of the com- mission, but was not able to agree with the two other members 1 the terms of the treaty, and has a minority report to make, which will probably cause trouble, sud will, at least, throw some light upou the manner in which government commissions sometimoes sncrifice the interests of the Yeoplo for tho samke of a. chance to use up the governmont appropria tion. Mr. Woodruff simply charges that the treaty framed by the major- ity of the commission moeans the giving.of 600,000 to the Indians for about miliion acres of as poor land as ever laid outof doors; land, that he says, would be absolutely worthless for sottlers for whose benelit the treaty was sought to be made. Unqu: lified For Its Work., “T'he entire work of the commission,’ said Mr. Woodruff, *was simply an illustration cf the foolishness of appomnting for such duties mon who are totally unqualified for the work. When the matter of appointing the commis- sion first came up the people of Fremont county, Wyoming, endorsed me for a place on the commission. You see tho object of the commission was to mako o treaty with the Shoshono and Arapunoe Iudiuns, by which ubout half of their res eration, which comprises about 1,500, 000 ncres of land in Iremont count should be thrown open for settiement. I di not waut_the place, although no mau in Wyomiug has the interests of the stato moro at heart than [ have; but the people insis upon recommending’ me, and their wishes were made kuown to+ Senator Carey, who endorsed me to Sceretary Noble for the place. ‘ike secretary refused to name any man in Wyoming, saying that disinterested parties should constitute tho commission. “Phns was just what I was afraid of, so [ wrote Senator Caroy a letter. I never ‘went to school a day in my iife, so it was a very dificult job for mo to write much of a letter, but I put in an entire night on this one, and I guess I dia pretty well.” I told Senator Carey that Wyoming had too much at stake to allow such an important matter to go into the handsof men who kuew nothing about Wyoming and still less about Indians, 1 showed the foolishness und danger of such a step, and_put it in prewy strong language. Scnator Carey turned the letter over to Secretary Noble, and in a few days came my appointment as chairman of the commission, Ignorant of Indian Affairs, “The other members of tho commission were C. H. Merriilat, a young Washington newspaper man, and J.’ b Brigham of Ohio, nd no two ever lived who knew less about ndians than they. Mr. Brigham, I will say, however, didn't pretend to know anything of the, but Merrillat knew enough for the two. He was one of those follows who have roman- tio ideas about the noble red mon and wanted to treat them as trusting children and all that. Weil, I bave lived among Indians all my life, have fought them and et them under all conditions, and 1 soon found out that the Merrillat ‘end of tho commission would make a muss of the- business if possiole. At first Merillat and Brigham did not appear to take much interest in the matter, Thoy played lawn tennis and read thrilling stories of border life. while I was arranging for o council botwesn the two tribes. I went at tho work in earnest, and explained to the other members my plan for o treaty, and they concurred in it after we had talked it all over. I propossd to buy about. 800,000 acres of the reservation, tne purchaso to tnclude about a haif miilion acres of good tillable land aund the rest very fine grazing country. Th would leavo the Indians about 500,000 acros 800,000 acres move than the government e tiniated they would need. Iov this I pro- posed the goverument should pay the In- dinus $700,000 and in this payment I had a plan for the benefit of both the Iudians and the state. I proposed to have the money divided into funds, a school fund, o road fund, an irvigation fund and other dovelop- ment funds, The money was not to go to the Indians for cight years, the intercsc on the tunds to be usod in the meantime for the de- velopment of that portion of the reservation still belonging to the Indians. Satistied the Indians. “My plan was endorsed by Messrs. Mer- rillav and Brigham, and a council was called at Shoshone agency on August 2, after the commission had béen on the ground only a little more than a week. I explained to the Indians what we proposed to do. I talked to them for four hours, going into tho minutest details as to the mannor in which the money from their lands was to be used in developing the part still reserved by them. When I was through talking oid Chief Washkeo, tho brawiest Indian in Wyowing, got up and shook my hand and saii tho treaty was good and that he would sign it. I have known him for years and he had coafidence in what T had told him, “Well, it looked then as though the com- mission’s work wus accomplished, but young Merrillat kicked the fat into the five. He od me of having taken un undue ad- vantage of him and of huving incorporated a lot of things in the treaty that he did not understand. T am not much of a diplomat and I went after him and abused him like a pickpocket. 1 had simply laid before the ndians a treaty which the' members of the commission had discussed in all its bearings and had agreed upon. 1 told him in pretty vigorous Fughsh what I thought of his action in the matter, and then he lot the cat out of the bag. Wanted to Use Up the Appropriation. *“The young fellow had the gall to confess that his” chief reason for opposing my plan of treaty was that the appropriation had not been used up, and bo couldn’t think of gowng home as long s the government paid his bills, You see the commissionors were al- lowed §10 a day each and other expenses, which made it quite an object for the youug man to prolong his job. Ho said 1t was the usual thing for congressional ‘commissious 1o stuy in the fleld as long as th. appropia- tion beld out, aud he didx.’s propose to estub- lish a bad precedent by goivg home with a balance iu the funa approvriated for the work of the commission, He said, too, that he would not go back without n_treaty--that would beanother bad precedent to establish. but he didu’t waut to sign one in such a burry, and Mr. Brighau taciuy agrood with pim, “Why that youug diplomat, Mernliat, used to spend hours telling me how he would fuvest the money be was going Lo get from the government as bis share of the commis sion's work. tobuilding air castles than he did to the work of the commission. Ho had nerve enough 100 to toll mo that he knew ho had the best of men as ho was a ropresontative of tho Assoviated Pross and could fill the news papers of the country with matter endorsing tho work of the commission and bLe has since done 1t to the queen’s taste Those old Indians out there are shrewd citizons and had good adyi the white men who were opposed 1o opening the reservation. The Arapahoes very gen erully signed the proposed treaty without much beswancy, but the Shoshones soon found out that they could get any kind of o trouty they wanted by simply delaying the game, and they procoaded to do it Aftor the commission had been in the field about sixty days 1t was found that the appro priation for the experse of the work was about exhinusted and something had 1o bo done, and that promptly, Toat was where Mr. 'Morrillat shone. 'His auxiety for a treaty couvinced tho [ndians that they could diotate tho terms of the agreement and thoy dig it Giving the Indians the Best of It. “The upshot of the wholo business was protty S Among He paid much more attention | that Mervilint and Brigham were finally com- polled to sign n treaty which gives the In- dians all the best of it. They agreed to pay the Shoshones and Arapahoes $600,000 for about 1,000,000 ncres of land that is abso. lutely whrthless, can not be used for any pur- pose, while the Indians reserve about 500,000 acres of us good farming land as the wost can show. Mr. Merriliat has kept his promise about supplying the papers of the country with good reports of the commission’s worl He has pictured a land flowing with milk and honey which will be open to settlers us a ro- sult of the splendid treaty framed by the commission. “Iam going to Washington to present a minority report on that work for several reasons, Oue s that I am not going to - tion the squandeving of $500,000, even if it does belong to the government; and another is to protect sottlers who would otherwise rush to that couatry on the strength of the reports of Mr. Merrilat in case his one-sided treaty is adopted, and the sagebrush and cactus tract opened for settiement. Wyom- ing i8 one of the grandest states in the union, and only wants a fair show to become one of the greatest. 1 will use every means in my power to prevent giving the statea black-eye by ratifying such o treaty and asking set tlers to mako their homes in such an unde- sirablo part of the state.” Mr. Woodruff was a member of tho last Wyoming senate, and {s one of the big sheep raisers of the state. He is on his way cast to seil some bonus voted recently by Fre mont county, and will reach Washington about tho first of the year with his protest against the proposed treaty. g - ‘Chiey had lots of wedding presents, but tho most pracious was a box of Haller's Aus- tralian salve She said Yhoughtfully, it's so nice for the little chaps on my hands, He said, wo haven,t got any ‘little chaps” yet.

On account of the hard rain which set m about 7 o'clock lust ovening there was a very small audience at the First Presbyteri church to listen to Rev. Dr. Harsha's ser- mon on “Slumming.” I'he particalar kind of slumming the doc- wor talked about was the fad of a large num- ver of society and church people who visit the poor and lowly out of mere curiosity and not with the thought or desire to benefit them either finan- Iy or religlously. “I think,” aid tho speaker, *‘that every young woman should have a practical education in kitchen work and nursing. There is nothing more valuable 1n real charitablo work than good nursing for the sick. During the recent ill- ness of Captain Hattie Smith of the Salva- tion army I noticed with pleasure the daily attendunce at her bedside of a wealthy and mable young lady, who helped nurse the poor woman back to life, “I don’t_belicve in this fad of tnrusting one’s self intothe lowly homo of an unfortu- nate and then going back toa haudsome drawing room and releting experiences. Such work _can bardly be called cnarity. 1t sfould be called curiosity. Such uction ou the part of the rich only mcreases the batred of the debased and wrotched against the wealthy, and does no good, but rather harm. When' you go into a poor person’s home and look arourd out of mere_curiosity, even if your visit 15 dis- guised by the cloak of “charity, it only intensifies the hatred of the fallon for the aristocrats. The way to_abproach such peo- ploisin atrue gentlemanly and womanly and give them to understand that you ze their wants and recognize their rights. rue charity is often interfered withi by those who have this stumming fad and _wish 10 pose before their church and the world as very charitable people. There is nothing moro beautiful than the visit of the rich to the poor in the vight manner, when the heart of the visitor is sincere and the iutention to do zood is manifest. “In my opinion the vest way to reach tho lower class of people is to go right down and live among them. Make vourscives a standard for their guidance, give them a bea- con to sieer their ship by.” Dr. Harsha then spoke of the good the Sulvation army sisters had done by living right amongst the lowly, and saia that the lowest could be raised gradually by a con- tinued zood example, — up. want overy mother to know that eroup can be prevonted. ‘Prue croup nover appears without a warning.

Towa's Prohibition Ques'ion Again Being Ther.uzhly Disonssed DEMOCRATS CANNOT AGREE ON A BILL, They Prefer to heep the Issue in Its Present Condition to Secure the poort Republicans, of *ome Des Morses, Ta,, Dac. 13—[Special to Tne Bee | —Public interest in the pronibition question has been revived a number of times the past week by meetings of various organ- izations concerned in its settlement in On Tuesday a number of leading democra of the state held a conference at tho Saver} hotel. Among thom were Sonator Bolter ot Harrson county, Dodze of Des Molnes county, Dont of Plymouth, Schmidt of Scott, Iditor Ham of Dubuque, Colonel Clark of Cedar Rapids, Chairman Fuilen of the State Central committeo, Boss B Hunter, and last but not least Governor Boles. Tho conference lasted from noon till nearly mid- night. It was called for the purpose of ac- claing if possible upon some plan of pro- cedure ou the temperance question in the legislature, As the discussion waxed warm it was doveloped that these great leaders were not a unit upon tho question. The governor and Colonel Clark were in tavor of passing any sort of licence measure which could be forced through both houses, using Senator Schmidt's bill of 1ast session as a basis, which provides fora fee of not less than §500 per annum, with sush additional sums as the municipality may fix. Other features are that tiwo-fifths electors may petition the city councila shall submit to the voters whethe liquors shall bo sold, no other question being voted on, and such election not to be held ottener than once in two years. If License vies it will require tho petition of at least ten resident freeholders to tho dis- trict court, showing the applicant to be of respectuble character, before a license suall issue Five hundred dollars must go county treasary, and the additional, it any, into the municipality. No person shail be licensed to sell liquor urless he gives a bond of £,000, payableto the county, with at least two sureties, conditioned that he will not violate any of the provisions of tho law, and be subject to suit by any person who may be injured by reuson of the licensed person violating any of tho provisions of this act No license shall be granted for more than ono year, and the place whero tho liquor is to be sold and the license itself are not transforable. May Be Kevoked. The court can rovoke a license upon proof that the person holaing the license Las been convicted of a sccond violation of the law. Any person violating the law by selling liquors to minors, intoxicated persons, babit ual drunkards or insane or idiotic persous | shall be punighed by a fine of not to exceed £100 or imprisonmant not excecding thirty days, or by both tne and imprisoament. A minor who falsely represcnts his age shall be subject to like punishment. The district court may grant permits to drugeists to soll liauor for medicinal, mechanical and chemical purposes exclusively upon payment of all expenses and costs relat- ing 10 the issuance of such permit and upon the compliance of all the provisions contained in this act, except that no license fec or bond shall be required, and such druggists shall be subject to all tio requirements and all the ponalties contained in this ac If any law is enacted at this legislature, it will be upon this basis, oxcept that the fee may be raised to § or 31,000, Senator Schmiat was not willing to go beyoud his measure, saving that was as far as his constituents would permit bim to go. Other members of the conclave wore not willing nor auxious for any chango in tho prosent law, choosing rather to fizht future campaigns on the basis of the DAst two, by using anti-prohibition republicans as a lever by which to hoist democrats into power; so nothing was accomplished, and it wus de- cided to wait awhile aad sée what move the republicans were likely to mako, into the Prohibitionists Active, On the same day the third party prohi- louists held o meeting, aecided to e: pormanent headquariers here and i prohibitionists regardless of politics on other questions to join them 1 a_crusade against the saloon. Leaders of the State Temperance ullinco also held o meeting last week and issued an address to the | people urging the formation of prohibition clubs and a geacral movement all along the | line. So the prohivition question in lowa 15 not yet out of politics, but bids fair to be- como more prominent than ever, The repub- licans, however, have ahout come to the con- clusion that the demoerats, having both the senate and the governor, should take the in- itiative in tho matter aud bear the brant of any legislation that may ensue.
