from the government service. @
I Chief BushShead 81 the Cherokee nation,
accompanied by Ex-Represen tative Phillips
q e't sskansas, called upon Score tary Lamar
and had an extensive Interview in regard
to the unwarranted Intrusion of white set
tiers upon tho Cherokee lands in the Indian
Territory. Although the Indians under
their treaties have the power. to determine
the status OF citizens OF the nation, the de-
partment is charged with the duty OF eject

duty has assumed the right OF determining
who are and who are not the intruders.

lam A. Vincent, chief justice of the supreme
court OF New Mexico, recently appointed
Stephen W. Dorsey member 6t the com.
mission to draw grand and petit iuries for
tthat territory. He was suspended from

the announcement that Judge Vincent is
the man who is suspended; but the word.

OF postmasters. BY Dec there will be
nearly 1000 vacancies in the presidential
offices caused by the expiration of COM
missions and resi-: nations, and it is tho in
tention OF the postmaster general to give
his attention to these offices before making
any considerable change elsewhere. The
postmaster general has decided that guar
antee associations cannot, go on bonds. OF

cision is that it is frequently necessary for
the sureties OF q postmaster to take charge
OF the os.sllss', and as guarantee associations
have no agents in all places. they could not
in all cases take charge OF the office when

F9aAta banquet to tho marquis OF .Lans-
doWne, at Victoria, British Columbia, the
governor general delivered long address,
one of the most noticeable features 'of
which was the reference to imperial feder-
alton. Great Britain feeling toward her
colonies had occupied three positions.
First, OF grasping selfshness, which ended
IN the loss OF the American colonies; next,
q period which was one OF indifference; and
the last is one of strong desire for a closer
union. As Tor federation, the governor
general favored a continuance OF the pres
ent relations rather than federation. The
general opinion is that he simply voices the
feelings OF the Canadian people in the mat
ter. Recently the vice regal party inspected
the dry docks at Esquimalt, visited the
navy yard and the war ships in the harbor,
and were entertained by Admiral Seymour
