a white heroine. It is an interesting book from cover to cover, and must have made more than one reader ashamed of his prejudice.  One ponders what will be the ultimate effect of books like this.  Perhaps-but then it is a far cry from South Africa to America.

[[paragraph]]"In 1689 the Spanish Crown granted this pueblo a 'league' of land surrounding their church, comprising 17,368 acres.  The title of this was confirmed by Act of Congress, December 22, 1858, and is still held by the Indians, except some small tracts that they have sold from time to time, and some huge tracts that they have been juggled out of through the maladministration of the United States Indian officials in New Mexico.  Of this, about eight thousand acres were stolen from the Indians in one deal.  Eighteen years ago one Smith induced the Santa Clara Indians to sign what they supposed to be a right of way for a road through the land.  When the paper turned up for record, in later years, it proved to be a deed to all of the Pueblo lands east of the Rio Grand River, comprising about eight thousand acres.  Smith transferred the land to one Hobart, who claimed to be an 'innocent purchaser.'  On account of protests, Judge William H. Pope, as attorney for the Indians filed suit to set aside the deed.  But Judge Pope transferred to the Philippines, and A.J. Abbott was appointed as attorney for the Pueblo Indians instead.

"But A.J. Abbott was the attorney for Hobart in the 8,000-acre land deal.  The appointment was made under the administration of Clinton J. Crandall, the present Indian Superintendent at Santa Fe.

"That suit for the Indians was allowed to go by default under Crandall's administration of affairs.

"For seven years the Santa Clara Indians have clamored for the reopening of the suit.  It was not until the complaints began to become public that F.S. Wilson, the present attorney for the Pueblo Indians, would consent to apply for the reopening of the case.  And when he did 'reopen' it he forgot to set up the only grounds upon which he could reasonably hope to win-the ground of 'fraud'."-From the "Story of Juan Cruz," by William E. Johnson.

[[paragraph]] The Rev. William Hayne Leavell, D.D., LL. D., a Mississippi divine, is seeking to further the cause of Christianity by urging the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment.  The Negro being an inferior being, must be kept down, and it is better for the moral sense of the community that it should be done openly rather than by subterfuge.
