by treaty made in 1890, committed or rather
changed into a sale for tho consideration of two
thousand dollars This treaty of 1880, as ato as
the meeting OF Congress last December, had not
been laid before the Senate and consequently not
ratified by that body. Why, it would be difficult to
say. Some believe that an apprehension the decc-
ton OF the attempted fraud has prevented it, others
suggest that, according to the latest views taken
by the administration, these things with the Indians
heretofore called treaties arc not treaties but somc
thing which does not require the ratification of the
Senate, being equally binding without, and within
the constitutional powers of the President of the
United States without check or control. How
