Tho Kemoynl of the Poneas.

Tho Senate POnca Committee yesterday cx-
amincd Charles r. Morgan an Iowa Indian
living with the Omaha tribe, who was inter
prefer for the Poncas in 1873, when the docu.
mcnt purpOrting to be an application of tho
Poncas for removal to tho Indian Territory
was prepared aud agreed to by them. Mr..
Morgan testified that at that time the Poncas
were troubled by raids of the Sioux, who, he
said, derided the POucas and regarded and
treated them rs enemies because they were
friendly to tho United States Government,
The Government failing to protect the
Pomcas from the Sioux was, he said, tho cause
of anxiety on the part of the Poncas to get
away from their Dakota reservation, Some
wanted to go to the Omaha reservation and
nowhere else Some, however, had heard the
Indian Territory spoken Of, and desired to
send q delegation of chiefs down thoro
to report upon tho odvlsability of
locating there before coming to final dc.
cision Regarding the application for removal
to the Indian Territory, which was agreed
to by many of their chiefs aud head men,
tho witness stated that he explained to the
Poncas that this paper was not an application
to be removed to the Indian Territory, but
was merely an application to be removed from
the Dakota reservation, and their understand
ing was that II expressed their desire to 90 to
the Omaha reserve, The chairman, Mr.. Kirk
wood, then Rskol the witness whether
he explained to the POnCas just what
this paper meant, and whether they clearly
understood the difference between the Omaha
reservation and the Indian Territory,
Tho witness replied "rhe PonGls under
stood this That thoy were asking to be ro.
moved to tho Omaha reservation and not to
the Indian Territory, That is what they uu'
derstood."
The details of theIproceedngs of tho council
at which tho paper in question was signed
were carefully inquired into but oicited only
the repeated, distinct and emphatic answer,
"lhat the Poncas understood that they were
asking to be taken to tho Omaha reservation
aud not to tho Indian Territory,

the following fattering allusion to

There is an instructive spectacle
in this country just at this time.
Half a dozen or more conspicuous
politicians aspire to the highest
place that American ambition can
attain. They lose no occasion for
bidding for popular favor; they arr
ready to use all the arts and articles
that their trade has taught them in
order to gain their object. The
people know this, and dislike it, and
the only hope Of success that any
one Of them can have is in forcing
a choice between two of their own
class. At the same moment, citi.
zen Of the republic, known for his
great achievements and admired for
unbanding simplicity and directness
Of character, is likely to be carried
back to a position for which he will
not speak word or raise q finger,
iii spite Of the politicians and all the
machinery with which they incum.
