An Indian Girls Letter.

Under date, Weber Falls, Oct. "a,
the New York Sun published the fol.
lowing:
To THE EDITOR OF The SUs-Sir
The Sun of Oct Is, contains an arti-
cler, copied from the Milwaukee Sen.
tinel, in which one ignorant of the
Indian Territory would be led to be-
lieve that we are a race of people in
ferior to tine whites. 1t seems as
though we are to be target as long
rs this country remains as it is.
Some one ought to come down to
see how the Indians reverence" the
whites who are flooding the country.
I think he would find it nearly as il
was in days of slavery, for the class
of whites who till the soil here are
nothing more than the Indians ser.
wants The Sentinel says:
By marrying an Indian maiden a viii te
man secures all the rights of citizenship.
That is SO. But it does not stop
at that
The head right of the girl helps the mat
rimonial contract.
/ have lived in the Indian Terri
tory most of my life, and can say
never heard of that before. II fur.
ther says:
The encouragement given to whites on
the part of manageable Indian females is
quite observable.
This is untrue. Show me the In
dian girl who will, like their pale sis
ters, answer an advertisement ofsomC
unknown man. How many time;
d. the Indians do this? Not once
that 1 ever heard of or read about
Where is the Indian girl that viii
leave her home to hunt and marry
some unknown white man? You MAJ
look the Indian Territory over an(
not find her. But conversely, quii'
often do white women come to thi!
country, and know not who they ar,
coming to see only by name and ad
dress, in hopes of marrying an In
dian. And quite frequently they ar,
served as they deserve. They thinl
they are coming to a grand place
| where they will be rulers of fashicr
and social life. They are mistaken.
The Indians as a rule respect thei
own girls much more than they d.
the whites, and not so much drudg
ery as the Sentinel would like to hea]
on us falls on the Indian girl.

A broad black line is drawn over and
under the official entry on the records
of the county prison Of the names of
five men. The sable lines indicate that
the men are under sentence of death,
and the entry instructs the warden to
hold their bodies until demanded by the
sheriff for execution.
On Wednesday night, when the bells
of the town changed at II o'clock and
filled the foggy air with their ringing,
all five of the murdcrers were awake to
receive the New Year that is bringing
them daily and hourly nearer to their
doom. DR.. Goerscn, who stands under
the penalty of death for poisoning his
wife and sister-in-law, paced the cell
that he has occupied for years, peered
through the narrow grating of the door,
and spoke neryously to passing guard.
"IIappy New Year, Doctor" called
the guard, unthinkingly.
The murderer replied, in choked
voice, 1.-THE same to you, Guard; the
same to you

asked what il meant.

as he hurried on, and Taylor shrunk
lack into the darkness Of his cell. Fur
ther on, Richard Truekc, who murdered
lis sweetheart, Auguste Zimm, jab-
Tered in German, but no attention was
paid TO him. James Sullivan, the sailor
who killed John Tomney, asked the
guard for more tobacco, and had no.
thing to say of the New Year that was
coming in.
All of the men appeared as usual to-
day, and exhibited no difference in their
behavior. Trueke, as usual, spent
some time with his spiritual adviser,
and the others dozed through the day.
with the exception of DR.. Goersen, who
seemed TO think the occasion worth cell
ebrating. He took advantage of the
privilege granted to prisoners under SEN
tcnce of death, and ordered an extra
dinner of beefsteak and onions.
