To the Osages, who long have been
inured to tho inconvenience of these
quarterly payments of large sums of
money for which neither they nor
their forefathers ever did one stroke
of labor or laid one brow-wrinkled
scheme, the only attraction of the
coming payment is its size. It is near-
ly double any previous payment.
Since 18S0, $202 held the record as
ihe maximum sum jlaid out to each
individual for one three-months period
The September payment of the pre-
sent year was $127 per capita; tho
June 1913 payment, $154.18, which
was counted pretty good; the March
payment was $134 for each member
of the family.
territory.
The Osages came here partially to
swap and trade; partially by force
of arms, for they wre turbulent.
But the inexorable circumstances
that, forced them here was met. by a
freak of chance. Under the barren
Osage hills—00 per cent of the Osage
country is said to be unfit for agri-
culture—was one of the most evenly
spread and richest underground re-
servoirs of oil and natural gjs in
Amerivn. Then too the Osages got
some money from the United States
in exchange for their rich lands back
north, and other strips were sold for
them to white men, and all this money
kept in the United States treasury to
accumulate and gradually grow to ap-
proximately $12,900,000.
This $12,000,000 became the trust

Tndian, big and little, fullblood and
one-sixty-fourth, gave all on the rolls
$3,800 each. And the oil royalties

He saw in the alarming spread of the
hookworm disease, especially on the
Pacific coast, a blow at economic gro-
gress and raoial development. The
order to inspectors to prevent entry
of any immigrant showing signs of
the hookworm disease is expected to
result in a decided decrease in the
number of East Indian and Hindu im-
migrants. Such immigrants, when ef-
fected with hookworm, are declared
to be far below the standard of pro-
spective citizens wanted in the United
States. Commissioner Caminetti re-

Dr. Herbert Gunn, special inspector
for the California state board of
health, ^ported to Commissioner
Caminetti on hookworm infection in
the mines in California as follows:
There is no question that the
general efficiency of men with hook-
worm disease is noticeably impared.
At one mine employing about 300 men
it was stated that a reserve of about
25 men bad to be available to replace
those who bccauge of sickness did not
report for work. Several of those
who were unable to work stated that
when they arrived at the mines they
were perfectly strong and well.
"A loss of 20 percent in efficiency
of those infected would be a conserva
tivo estimate. That would mean for
instance in a mine where 300 men am
employel at an'nverage of about $2.50
a day, and estimating the number of
those infected as low as 50 per cent
a loss of nearly $20,000 a year.” Dr.
Gunn pointed out, too, that the
disease is prevalent among agricul-
tural workers in California.
