UM ATU.I.AS Wil li BE
GRADED FOR CITIZENSHIP.
Government Has Decided to Let the
More Capable Members of the Tribe
Manage) Their - Own Affairs One
Class of Sober, Intelligent Indians
WiU Ite Practically Release 1 I'roni
Agent's Control In Business Matters,
Second Class Wll' lie Partially De
pendent on GoTemnient and Third
Cla Will Remain Absolute Wards.
Information I received from Wash
ington that the Indian department
will adopt an entirely new- method of
dealing with the Umatilla Indians.
Heretofore all the Indians on the
reservation have been under the di
rect charge and supervision of the
agent and superintendent. Practical
ly all the land business of all the
Indians has been transacted through
the agent and all the Indians havs
beeu upon the same footing, no mat
ter what the personal qualifications
of many of the better class of Indians
r.ay have been.
Now it Is understood that the Indi
ans wi'l be divided Into three classes:
one class composed of the Intelligent
and sober members of the tribe to
be practically free from the agent's
supervision. They will be allowed to
conduct their own business, make
their own leases, select their own tent
ers and will be citizens in every sense
of the word.
The second class will be composed
of the Indians who are not entirely
capable of self-support, but who will'
be assisted and guided by the agent
In all their transactions, but who will
be released from this assistance as
rapidly as they acquire good habits
and become proficient In managing
their affairs.
The third class will be composed of
the remainder of the tribe, those who
are utterly Incapable of citizenship.
This wilt comprise perhaps BOO out of
the 1100 members of the tribe, and
will be under the close supervision of
the agent In all matters.
It Is understood that this arrange
ment Is wholly In accord with the
Ideals of Major Edwards, the agent,
and meets with the approval of the
Indians generally, although the older
members of the tribe do not desire
to be released entirely, as a tribe,
from the government's care, as they

DENVER WOMEN CANNOT .
FIND MISSING BROTHER.
Led I'pon a Wearisome Quest by Let
ter From Unknown Party Knyiug
Tluit Their Brother Hnd .Keen Mur
dered In tho Thunder Mountain
Country Have Been Searching for
Four Months and Will Renew the
Search Next Spring Murder Is the
Only Theory Tluit Is Tcnuble to
Them.
Two heavy-hearted women, Mrs.
William Martin and Mrs. George Ne
vln, of Denver, passed through the
city today on tholr way from Spokane
to their homo.
Four months ago they received a
mysterious letter from a man signing
himself C. F. Edwards, of Dixie,
Wash., saying that their brother,
Thomas E. Jones, while coming out
of the Thunder Mountain mining dis
trict last spring had been attacked by
bandits and murdered on a lonely trail
after which he was thrown over a
precipice.
Startled by the tragic news con
cerning their brother, the women
rushed to Walla Walla, where they
made a vain search for the man Ed
wards, who wrote the letter from
Dixie, and failing to locate him they
went to Spokane, where they organiz
ed searching parties with which they
scoured the trails leading northward
from Thunder mountain. In hopes of
finding the shattered body of their
brother. ..-
For four months they have tramped
the mountain trails, climbed precipi
ces, slept In the cold, wrote letters to
outside cities and conducted a syste
matic search for the lost man, but
not the slightest trace has rewarded
their tiresome and discouraging
search.
Finally, this week, when they wtre
driven from the mountains by the
heavy snowfall, they turned their
faces homeward without having ob
tained the slightest clew to the miss
ing brother. They will return next
spring and search another dim trail
which Is said to' have been traveled
by a few prospectors In coming from
Thunder Mountain to the Coeur
d'Aleiics, and in the meantime will
make every effort by letter to find
Just when their brother left the camp,
how he left and with whom it possi
ble. ' They believe that the man who
wrote the mysterious letter Is the mur
derer of Jones, and wrote from Dixie
after committing the crime and that
he Is now In hiding under another
name in Walla Walla county.
The sisters had not heard from their
brother for several months before
they received, the letter announcing
his murder, but they knew that he
was prospecting In the Thunder Moun
tain district. He was always prompt
In writing to his sisters when be
changed location or started on a pros
pecting tour which would keep him
absent from his headquarters for any
length of time and there is not the
least doubt in their minds that he
was murdered as the letter stated,
and that they will yet find the body.

Editor Ferguson of the Adams Ad
vance, Made a Rapid Collection
From the "Congo Coons."
Editor Martin Ferguson, of tha Ad
ams Advance, and justice of the neace
for Adams, stopped the Walla Walla
Pendleton passenger train for a few
moments this morning while he was
collecting an overdue bill for printing
and advertising from the "Congo
Coons," a colored aggregation of
singers, dancers nd vaudeville bill
Jumpers.
Editor Ferguson was at the O. R.
& N. depot as tho train came In this
morning expecting to greet the
"Coons," but they remained In the car
and he saw that If he collected from
them he would have to board the train
and so he did.
Rushing through the cars he found
his minstrels and demanded his pay,
and being refused at first, began mak
ing preparations to have the crowd
arrested, when the bill was paid and
the editor and justice allowed to get
off the train which by this time had
proceeded far some distance toward
Pendleton. With his cash in his pock
et and his temper considerably worse
for the wear, he walked back to Ad
ams and the train with the "Congo
Coons" aboard, proceeded to Pendle

allowed toadvance
blood will at
tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down ami waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a derangement of the kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by a rocr
