a member of the house foreign COM
mittee says the indications are that con-
gress will do nothing towards indemni-
Tying the Chinese for the loss which re-.
suited from the anti-Chinese riots IN the
territories and on the Pacific slope. He
predicts as result the abrogatlon of the
Burlingame treaty, an advance IN the
price of tea aud other commodities
which We import from China, and the
complete breaking up OF the American
trade in the eastern hemisphere. In .
commercial sense the United States viii
suffer severely should it's relations with
China be severed, while China can gel
along very comfortably without inter
course with the United States.

The Press and Dakotnion bav,nl, sa,,

The Press and Dakotaian having SAID
| that "the enemies of statehood and di.
vision will strive to name the next con-
gresham, but their hopes need not be
| dcceded to il the south is in the field
early, and vigorously contends for the
principles it has advanced" the Sioux
Falls Press announces that it is IN favor
of the return OF the Hon. o. s. Clifford.
These journals seem to entertain little
hope OF the passage OF even division
measure during the present session OF
congress. Times.
AT this end of the string hope runs as
high as ever it did and we presume the
same bnoyancy prevails over ip the
pickerel pastures. The Press and the
Press and Dakotaian are examples of
thrifty political forehandedness.
While hoping and believing
that division will come, and
that admission may come, they see
no objection to q preparation for the
other contingency. Dakota will be
either state or territory on the sec
ond OF November next and political
event will ocsar on that day in case it
retains its normal condition. Because
we hope and expect change for the
be5ter is no excuse for neglecting ar
rangements for opposite possibilities.
Therefore 1t does not follow that be-
cause discussion of the delegateship is
before the meeting the participants
therein have have flung their statehood
hopes to the winds or have parted with
their belief that division may occur.

Delegate Clifford, in letter to ID,
Elwell. of Sioux Falls, says:
| have no idea of giving up the fight
for statehood under the present consti-
tuition. 1t is possible we may have to
"go around" in order to get statehood
but as matter of fact it lies wholly
with our people whether the present
statehood movement Is adopted or aban-
doned. speak adyisediy when say it
lies with the people. If congress refuses
at present to recognize us, let the people
continue the state organization by elect
ing officers under it next fall. If we
have an enabling act presented to US, or
simple division, let the state
hood organization be continued
just the same, ssand l assure our
people that the present statehood move
ment, if SO continued, will be recognized
There is no question about it. There
| are examples of this kind in the history
of our country-one case of six gears re-
peatea refusals on the part of congress
to recognize state government or.
ganizatlon similar to ours, which was
kept up by the people during all this
time. and wss finally recognized and the
territory admitted as state under it,
1t is the very time. of all other times,
for our people to take courage and not
be disheartened.
Nerve, tenaci5y, staying qualities, are
the necessary ingredients. Judge Gift
ford appears to have them, and at home
the people have generally obliterated

con. The movements thus far in behalf
of admission have been only skirmish,
South Dakota is feeling its way just

Something About sapsuckers.

From TIE Columbus tGa.) Enquirer Sun,
Several countrymen with one lawyer
and our jOVial Superior Court Clerk were
Assem- Died yesterday morning In a magis-
trate's Office. The occasion OF the gather
ing was tne trial OF a possessory warrant
case instituted by one farmer against
another 10 recover possession OF a certain
deed 10 lot Of land. The recorder OF
deeds mad been summoned as witness in
the case. While awaiting the coming Of
the tardy lawyer, who never wants but
just five minutes In which 10 turn the
world inside out, conversation drifted in-
10 the curious ways OF sapsuckeTs. Mr..
Pond was the last one to give his ex-
perience with that peculiar variety OF the
feathered tribe, and here Is the story he
told:
He said the sapsucker was the first bird
he ever killed with gun, and IL happened
after this manner: He mad an old flint and
steel single-barrel shotgun and supply
OF powder, but no shot; 80 in the place OF
lead be poured In a handful Of single
nails. The bird presented its back square
10 MIN as 1t was climbing up the trunk OF
a tree, ana be took aim and blazed away.
The bird didn't fail, but seemed rather
droopy, with wings and head hanging
loose. He tried few rocks. but the bird
wouldn't bulge; so he climbed the tree
himself and found the dead sucker nailed
hard and fast 10 the body Of the tree. All
hands agreed that his experience In sap
sucker buntipg was rather marvellous.
The circumstance " hich gave rise TO the
enpsucker conversation was the exhibit
tonic the company, by Judge Wooten, of
section from pine tree IN which was
the home u a sapsucker. The bird had
sounded around tue tree by constant tap
ping win its bill until II found the spot
where the hard outside was thnnest be-
tween the bark and the decayed heart,
and there by an extraordinary energy
and constant nammering with its sharp
Deak, had bored out round opening two
inches In diameter. When the soft de-
cayed heart was reached, spacious
dwelling place WAS eXcavated. The door
OF this BIRDS house sloped gently upward
from the outside, thereby serving the dou-
BILE purpose Of keeping out the beating
rain, as well as rendering the entrance
way less abrupt for the climbing Occu.
pant. The judge explained the cause OF
the oblique and irregular scratches
on either side Of the hole
by saying that IL was made by
the beak OF bird As IL wiped the fresh
ooZing turpentine from its beak. The
judge, who has been something OF woods
man In his lime, said ne had watched the
birds as they constructed their houses nd
had seen them engaged In whipping their
beakS.

A Talk with Major Petty.

Fr01a the CherOkss Ca AdUGncs.
An aged citizen Of Cherokee, Mai. VII
ley Petty, gives the following facts in re-
gard 70 the now celebrated Tate marble
quarries.
Mr.. Samuel Tate purchased large num-
Der Of lots from the original drawees about
the year 1894, being four years before the
Indians left. Soon after thered men were
taken off. Mr.. Tate had thirty-twO saws
in frame, working up the marble.
Judge Daniel, an Indian quadroon,
owned that section under the Ind an
claim. 1t was known that marble was
there IN great quantity, even before Mr..
Tate purchased the land, but there was no
dream Of what it is now so rapidly deVel-
oping intO-an exhaustess mine OF
wealth; nor, In fact, that it extended 30
deep and so far up and down LOngswamp
creek.
That wondrous marble deposit is now
being MADE factor in the route which
new railroads shall go. When a road is
SPOKEN OF from Gainesville or Kingston,
via Canton or Walesca, you will hear it
said:
at ought to go by the marble quar-
ries."
1t Is very interesting to hear Maj
Petty talks in reference to the early
settlement Of this beautiful region. He
IL over q years OF age, in iGll possession Of
bis faculties, 10 respected and loved by
very large circle of old friends, and is Iiv-
ing in the very room where ne and MS first
wife spent the 'cOld Saturday" In 1885.
He settled hsre In 1894. Tine N ajor nearly
sheds tears at times when he speaks of his
red-skinned friends, VINO were compelled
TO leave their heritage in this rich and
lovely region.
Old Aunt Thebe, one OF the servants
whom he brought with him from south
Carolina, is still with her sole Marster,"
aud she raises indigo every year in cor
ner OF the garden, which she uses IN col
Oring.
His cousin, Mr.. M. L. Petty, married
bis adopted daughter-his only heir-and
has made fame this year as potato
raiser. gentleman OF Wall street,IN
York, has had two barrels Of these poia-
toes shipped TO his brother 10 New Hamp-
shire. Another man, living In Omaha
Neb., wants ten barrels shipped TO him.
