FELLOW CITIZENS
Senator Crawford Jars His Col
legues by Addressing
Them Fellow Citizens.
Washington. May 16.—Senator Coe
I. Crawford of South Dakota got op in
the senate this week Wednesday to
make his maiden speech. There
weren't many correspondents in the
press galleries.
When the Crawford speech was pub
lished today it was discovered that
sevei a I times he addressed the senate,
in his hurst of fervid oratory, as "fel
low citizens."
This is distinctly a new style in
Washington, and it is causing the local
newspapers and the senators to smile.
The Washington Herald devotes its
editorial leader today to a discussion of
the question in the "fellow citisens"
appeal of Crawford.
Says the Herald: "Let others
snicker and make merry over Senator
Coe I. Crawford's initial senatorial
effort as they will, concerning that
part of it where he addressed his col
leagues as 'fellow citizens,' but we
shall not. Mr. Crawford made a most
excellent address. It reads well in
the record, and was evidently put to
gether carefully and with much
thought.
"But by no manner of means the

of friendly relation that
is very
We think it an excellent idea to re
mind the various senators occasionally
that they ate, after all is Baid and
done, merely 'fedow citizens' intrust
ed temporarily with the nation's affairs
and accountable finally to some other
'fellow citizen' in the ranks for an
honest, impartal and just administra
tion of thes3 affairs, a fact that the
senate may sometimes overlook, and
in the eyes of a great many people
does sometimes overlook.
"We have a very high opinion of
tilt senate of the United States. It Is
ON
n most august and imprest ve body.
We take it very seriously, it not
quite so seriously as it takes itself.
If we were disposed to pick flaws in
the senate, we might find numerous
imperfections, and faults, that we
would like to see corrected, but we
are not so disposed. We do think,
however, that the senate inclines now
and then to hold itself aloof fioin
contact with the plain, common,
everyday folks of the land-and tney
constitute the vast majority—and
work with eyes a little too lovingly
fixed on the olassse rather than the
masses.
"We are not ever so faintly inclined
to muckrake the senate, or to hold it
up to ridicule or harsh criticism nnt
that it now and then gets a trifle too
high and mighty for comfort, we re
spectfully submit. And then, if it did
not, the mere fact that it might, would
lie worth considering.
"And so we do not think Senator
Crawford did the senate any nnkind
ness when he addressed it as fellow
citizens,' however much he may have
staggered its dignity.
'Fellow citizens,' is a good, unctu
ous, generic, mouth filling, sonorous,
Amrican form of address,and its appli
cation to the senate of the iTnited
States now and then may serve to re
mind it of a very wholesome and preg
nant truth—that it is, with all its in
stating attributes, but an aggregation
of 'fellow citizens.'
"Only that and nothing more."
LAND RULING
Interior Department Rules in
Favor of South Dakota
Homesteader.
Washington, May 10.—The secretary
of the interior has announced a deci
sion reversing the commissioner of
pubile lands and the former policy of
the department in regard to homestead
entries that is of vital interest and
good news to thousands of South Dako
ta settlers who have been compelled to
absent themselves part of the time
from their claims. The case decided
is that of Piatt, of Mitchell, against
Clarence E.Moon ovei a Lyman county
homestead. Mitchell contested Moon's
entry, alleging failure to comply with
the law and abandonment. The evi
dence showed Moon had no other home
except his claim that be was there
at least once or twice each week and
had five acres broken. Chamberlain
land officers decided for the contestant
and the commissioner of public lands
snstained the decision, holding the
entry for cancellation.
The secretary of the interior now
reverses the commissioner and dis
misses the contest, holding the claim
ant bad demonstrated good faith, and
that the contest, having been filed
within fourteen months alter the en
try and within eight months after the
time claimant was required to begin
residence, there was sufficient compli
ance with the law to hold the entry,
but the secretary of the interior says be
does not necessarily decide by this that
the claimant has made Bnfficient com
pliance to allow final proof.

NEW PLAN
Congressman Burke Suggests
Appropriations of Indian
Lands.
Washington, May 16.—Represents
ti v e
Burke introduced a bill for
e
opi ning of a half million acres of a
in the Rosebud reservation and Sena
tor Gambia offered a bill for opening
Pine Ridge reservation. The Burke
hill
includes all the Rosebu 1 res*r
vat
ion in Meyer and WashabauKh
enmities north of the tenth parallel
and south of the Big White river, ex
cent Indian allotments.
Mr. Bnrke has included as a new
feature of his bill the provision that
townsites shall be chosen by the gov
eminent before the state makes its se
lection of lands, and that ten acres of
each townsite shall be reserved for
school, park and public purposes. He
aim' provides that 20 per cent of the
net proceeds from the sale of land
hh 11 be set apart for schoolbouses
and other public bmldings or in the
improvement of townsites. Another
new provision of the Burke bill re
quires the state to select two other
selections in the same township if the
original selections are lost by allot
incut. The Burke bill has the ap
proval of the Indians, and it is be
lieved the interior department will
favor it, as it is acceptable to Major
McLaughlin.
Mr. Burke has jost been advised by
the geological survey tnat it expects
the report from the three geologists
now looking into the mineral lands
in Standing Rock and Cheyenne River
reservation to he filed by July 1. By
the eaily withdrawal of mineral lands
from settlement it is certain these two
resei vatione will be open for registra
tion iu th« tell and Sas filings next
spring.
NEW ASTRAL LAW.
Boston House Painter Thinks It Will
Revolutionize Chronological System.
Robert J. Hodge, a house painter of
Franklin Park, Boston, has invented
an astral calculator based on what he
claims as his discovery of a new astral
law, which he believes will revolution
ize the world's chronological system
According to his theories, the season
changes are not caused by the earth s
revolution around the sun, but rather
by a yearly revolution of the sun In an
orbit apart from the earth and by a
balance motion of the earth on Its
equatorial axis.
Hodge has traveled across the Unit
ed States, taking observations to veri
fy his theory. Under this a calendar
year would consist of exactly 364 days,
with each fourth month, beginning
with March, consisting of exactly thlr
ty-one days, the other eight months of
thirty days. He has worked out a new
astral calculator to take his observa
tions.
MACHINE TO DISPERSE FOGS.
Frenchman Uses Hertzian Waves and
Four Huge Blowpipes.
M. Dibos, a French engineer, has
been conducting a series of experl
ments on the English channel which
have given rise to the hope that New
York harbor may ultimately be kept
free of fog. Attracted by the English
experiments for dissipating fog by
means of electrical discharges, M. Di
bos conceived the idea of a combina
tion of Hertzian waves.
Beneath a powerful Hertzian plant
which emits waves of 40.000 volts he
placed four huge blowpipes directed to
the four points of the compass. Simul
taneously with the discharge of the
Hertzian waves the blowpipes, each
giving a temperature of 2,000 degrees
C., were lighted. In from twenty to
thirty minutes a thick fog was dis
pelled over a zone of 200 yards. En
couraged by this success, the experi
ments will be continued.
Playground on Hotel ftiSMk
The Parks and Playgrounds Associa
tion of the City of New York has a
new playground for children on the
roof of the Waldorf-Astoria. George
C. Boldt, proprietor of the hotel, has
placed the roof, Including the sun par
lor and pine grove, at the disposal of
the association, and Howard Brad
street, secretary of the organization,
has announced that the new play
ground will be opened on March 29.
High fences will be built around the
roof, and apparatus like that In use In
other city playgrounds will be installed
in charge of instructors. Mr. Boldt
will place in commission an additional
passenger elevator for the use of the
children In the morning of each day.
Milk at One Cent a Bottle.
Pure milk In sterilized bottles to be

made the other day by Mrs. Ellen 8.
Bryant, representing the Chicago Wo

school extension committee, to the
committee on school management. The
plan was enthusiastically approved. If
the board of education acts favorably
on the recommendation of the commit
tee the first trial of the plan will be at
the Hamllne school, and if the trial
meets with success the system will be
