QUILTED AND COINED.
A Collection ofNeway Notes From
Many Sources.

--Chetopa Statesman "Thc
wife of Mr.. Nolaiid of the nation,
now in Jail at Oswego awaiting ex.
animation for larceny of cattle,
died at the residence of John
Lamb in this city and was buried
at tho expense ofthe county.
--Neosho Miner and Mechanic
Moses Powers, an old farmer on
Sarcoxie prairie, near Jones creek
timber, has lived in Newton coun-
ty 81 years, in the immediate
neighborhood of where he now
lives, has not been to Nensho nor
voted since the late "unholy war. >"
He is an old Henry Clay Whig
and is sound as q dollar on the
tariff, and said to our informant
that a man that advocated free
trade in our new western country
was fool and didn't know what
he was talking about. Mr.. Powers
is a farmer in good circumstances
and is enjoying a ripe old age,
with his mind and head as clear
as a bell. wy David Peirce in
forms us that his well, which is
81 feet deep, was frozen over on
Sunday with ice an inch and half
thick. He says there is a sand
opening at the bottom of his we'll
and that sometimes in summer
the wind poors out Of the well
strong enough to blow off his hat.
If Mr.. Pierce will employ couple
of good miners to follow up that
sand opening he will probably
find something more profitable
than go cent wheat. He will un-
doubtedly strike into big cave or
tunnel by which he might drive to
Neosho under cover these cold
mornings and throw in a wagon
load of blue mineral or silicate of
zinc to pay his grocery bill. At
any rate we believe it will pay
him well to follow up that streak
OF wind.
1--WE have had pretty cold
weather, "said L. p. Kidd, of Lake
township, to Nevada Mail re-
porter, "and the worst part of it,
for me, was that my fish. all froze.
My pond was about three feet
deep. Ninety-two German Carp
froze. Some of them measured
% inches long aud weighed from
five to seven pounds. The pond
was stocked two years ago, and
the fish did well up to the late
freeze. The history OF these fish is
to the effect that they will bury
themselves in the mud to prevent
freezing, but this was not verified
in my pond. The pond froze
eight inches, and with it went my
fish crop"

read up little9 You are getting
a little rusty. II may be that you
are giving too much attention 70
the missionary business now. II
80, what objections have you in a
religious point of view to the blend
log Of white and red ? Are not .he
FIVE civilized tribes the most re-
ligious Indians on the continent I?
They have more churches and less
hypocracy according to population
than the state you represent, and
the hardest sinner among them
would shudder 70 vote for bill as
inhuman and unjust as yours. l
see that you told a reporter you did
not include the five civilized tribes
in your bill. If such is the case,
why do you not say so. Now, il
the whites have improved the FIVE
tribes before mentioned, what can
be your obj ctions to crossing up
the remaining tribes2 believe
that venerable patriot, Patrick
Henry, advocated that policy and
l believe it to be good one, and
that little cross Of the Indian
would be beneficial to the cold
blooded stock Of the Massachusetts
senator. II would at least infuse
into the veins of the young Dawes's
something that their father never
had-the milk of human kindness.
If l could see anything reasonable
in the bill, my feelings would be
different, but bill emanating from
a man filling the position now oc-
cupied by Senator Dawes, as chair
man Of the committee on Indian
affairs, to contain such an absurd
proposition as the above, is some-
thing that / cannot account for. /
claim that Mr.. Dawes has no right
to meddle with the Indians in their
self-governmcnt in any way what
ever. | claim that what he pro-
poses violates the constitution of
the United States and treaty stipu-
lations, in as much as the United
States in its treaties made with the
Indians gave them a right to make
and regulate their own laws. That
under those laws contracts were
made and those contracts that are
legal to-day cannot be made illegal
by a law passed tomorrow. I
claim that an Indian gil has a
right to marry who she pleases
without asking Mr.. Dawes, or for
letting her right, or losing or
nationality. l claim t / the ma
jority of white men in this country
are honest and enterprising men
and that their families would be an
honor to any country. Iclaim that
the Indians are a noble race of peo-
pie that have never been, nor can
they ever be, enslaved--they have
been robbed l will admit. You
may be honestly mistaken in re-
gard to this country. You have
been here and l have been before
your committee and 1 have heard
you ask questions that satisfied me
that you did not know anything
about the people you came to visit,
and from your present absurd bill
/ am sure you know nothing now
in regard to the wants and wishes
of the Indian. Your bAl is an in
suit to the ladies of the Indian Ter
ritory and an outrage on the whole
community. Hoping to hear more
from the ladies of the Indian Ter
ritory and also from the citizens
generally, l am,
Very respectfully yours,
OLD FARMER.
