n Cherokee Indian was killed Monday
by special Deputy Marshal James L..
Spencer while resisting arrest. Spencer
had a writ for Anderson for introduc-
ing and selling whisky into the Indian

HIM instantly. Anderson was a bad

GUS man to encounter. He had when
killed a Winchester rife, a six-shooteT
and a stock OF cartridges.

SHOOTING CITIZENS,

What can we say of the apparent
eagorness with which President Cleve-
land and Governor Stoneman hasten to
array the military forces of the Republic
and of the State, ready to shoot down
American citizens, at the bidding Of
foreign officials, in the interest of cheap
labor seeking whites and heather aliens.
DO foreign pOtentaies show themselves
50 ready, SO willing, to shoot their people
at the complaint of American citizens
wronged by them in violation of treaties
and laws: There is not ruler in Europe
who would act as these men have done.
There rs not an emperor, king or minister
of them all, who would not tell YOU, with
scorn, that one drop of their country
men - blood Is more precious to them
than all the blood of the whole American
people, And orr government hastens to
get ready to slaughter and arrest and
punish oHr countrymen at the bidding of
W
man, IN defence of aliens who are in our
country in violation of our laws! All.
but those European rulers have an inter
est IN their own people-~even though it
be Il selfish one. Our rulers represent,
not the American people, but the corpor-
atoms and money power EeartlesS, soul
less monsters, without national pride
or patriotism, who would sacrifice both
Americans and Cinnamon for more gold
and more cheap laborers. But don't let
us get excited just yet-we may have
something more to stir up our American
pride, after Il while. HayeS valley Ad-

VESTED RIGHTS DIE OuT.

The State is fully entitled to take
charge Of all the Instruments Of Labor
and Production, and to say that all social
activities shall De carried ON in Il perfect
~ different manner.
Undoubtedly the whole Fleeing class
will int"rpose their so-caIcd "yestcd
rights, That is to say. because the State
for long time tacltly allowed a certain
class to divide the common stock of So
clal advantages among themselves and
appropriate it to their own individual
benefit, therefore the State is cstopped,
thcy say. from ever recovering it,. And
not alone will they claim undisturbed
possession of what they have, but also
the right to sc it III the future as they
have Dthe past; that is they will claim
IA vested right to fleece the masses to
all eternity.
But such protest will be Just as vain
N was that Of the Pope against the loss
~ MS tlil,uIai sovereignty, No THEORY
of "vested rights" never applies when a
revolution has taken place; when the
whole structure Of society is changed.
The tail of II tadpole that is Developing
INTO Il frog may protest as much as it
plcases; Nature hceds il not And when
the frog is an accomplished fact, there is
no tail la protest.
The whole doctrine of "ycstrd RIGHTS. "
moreover has its reason in the fact that
from the dawn Of history to the present
time we have had and have lritiIeqd
classes. Henry George remarks very
pointcdIy; when we allow vested
rights we still wear the collar oI the
Saxon thrall:' The only "vestcd right
ANY man has is the right to such institu-
tons as VIII promote the Public Good.

RE MORSE,

II has been taught that men should
weep and howl for their transgressions-
but tell you nay! One hour of reform
alton is worth an age of repentance. All
you need is to clearly perceive and I'M
derstand your fault its hurtful relations
to yourself and others, and then to set
about its abolition and the restoration
of things Us they should be. A certain
amount of regret you will feel, and
should feel, but, if it is painful in its
character, it will do you more harm than
good. Pain and sorrow are necessary to
restrain the brute and the savage, but
the man III whom reason reigns, needs
neither, and can adyantageously make
his brains save his nerves. TO him the
right perception will always be sufficient
cause for the right action Lioyd IN

A newlymarried couple started from
tn" Hungarian capital recently on their
wedding tour in Il fashion which is en-
tlr"ly novel in that country. Their des-
tinatlon was Rome, and they intended
travelling the journey together ON a $50
cable" Although tricycling in the cen
ter and south of Europe is rapidly
spreading, yet the spectacle of Il lady and
gentleman travelling together in that
fashion is still very uncommon. In Sc
Cludrd districts, in fact. tricyclists are
looked upon rs natural curiosities. Ii is
recorded that in some rustic districts the
country folk were So terrified at the ap-
pcarance of the first tricy clists that they
fled prec'pitately to the nearest place Of
