A vfPERoUs ATTAcK.
The following is a clipping from
the Washington Capital, paper
published in the most mongrol
city on the continent. Not satis-
fed with his unmcrited attack upon
the institutions Of the country, ir
other communities as much If not
more responsible than tho Chero-
kec nation are excusablc for alike
conduct, he has not the decency Of
ono who is the opposite of the
conditions he represents to exist
here TO refrain from laying his
dirty hands on the women and
children. If he knows anything
about the people here and their
peculiar institutions he willfully
misrcpresents facts. If he knows
nothing of them, in the spirit OF
honest ignorance he ought to keep
his mouth shut.
In the Indian Territory are more
people, according to numbers, who
can trace a straight ancestry than
any place in America, because up
on this fact depends the rights Of
residence and citizenship in the
country. No one who cannot
trace a straight line of Cherokee
descent has any claim TO the COM
mon rights of the people. But see
what he says;
We have had dispatch every
day from Tahlequah, the so.called
capital of the so-called Cherokee
nation. about q contested election
for chief executive Of the supposed
nation. The reports have been
very tiresome to those who know
anything of the composition of the
so.called nation. The truth is
that the Indian ri.ory is the
hell hole Of the continent of North
America. 1t is the cul- -de.sac Of
Kansas, Texas and Now /
Mexico, to which every ruflian /
steers when il gets too hot for him /
in his last place of residence. /
With the part-breeds, composed |
Of Indians, negroes, Mexicans and /
The oh-scourings of the whites, the I
population contains scarcely a
nan, woman or child who can
,laim a straight ancestry from any
ace. 1t is quite time to oblitcratc
he farce of nationality aud bring
is people under such laws as Mr..
Sdmunds has made for Utah.
To DO as other communities
ave done under alike circum-
ances, the Cherokee people can
10. be considered more reprehcn-
.ible than they, especially when it
: claimed that the Cherokees are
iemi-savages and the people of
he United States stand at the
lead OF perfect civilization and
christian education. If the Chero-
iecs fall ont about political mat
ers and push their claims to the
'erge Of war, they ought not to be
,lamod any more than the good
people of Arkansas when they
we're trying TO cut each others
hroats, because one political par
V wanted Parson Baxter for gov
rnor and the other Brooks nor
my more than the obstreperous
'eople OF South Carolina when
Wade Hampton was kicking up a
lust in that state, nor vet any
more than the fire-eaters of Texas
n the Coke muddle. All govern
nents get into trouble sometimes ;
he best as well as the less advunc-
d in the science OF rule and sub
lission, but there is a fact to be
cmembered, that the Downing

and appropriating 1900 to GOV sr

D. w. Dushyhead and whoever

decided that members could not
speak on Mr.. Bengo's motion and
called for the vote. The vote re-
suited in refusal to accept the mi
nority's report. Senate adjourned
until o'clock. After dinner Mr..
Benge moved that they vote upon
the majority report. After some
little discussion it was voted on
and approved. Immediately
thereafter John G. Schrimsher was
sworn in a. senator from Coowoes-
coowec, and senate adjourned.

GENERAL CAPITAL NOTES.
-Mankiller Ketchcr, council
man from Tahlequah district, is
on the sick list.
%. w. Lipe, Of Fort Gibson,
is now acting as clerk for the COM
mission on citizenship.
The lower house is ready for
business. and the members are
anxiously awaiting for the senate
to get in the same fix.
Mr.. Il. NJ. Hewins and Thomas
Hutton, are here in the interest of
the syndicate who hold the lease
on the Cherokee strip.
The Nationals are wrangling
amongst themselves. They can't
decide who they want for treasur-
or, although Bushyhcad seems to
be ahead SO far.
"A telegram was received Sat.
urday by Chief Maycs from Col.
Harkius, Chickasaw delegate, urg-
ing the necessity of the Chcrokees
having a representation at that
place.
Parties were around at the
National hotel Saturday evening,
congralulating John Schrimsher.
They evidently think he's the SEN
0tor now. II rumors be true, sit
do look that way"
II is generally conceded by the
people around Tahlequah that the
reason why Schrimsher was sue
cessful in the Rogers -Schrimsher
contest case, was due to the way
in which he manipulated the ra6-
bits foot, buckeye and turapan
she'll.
In the sanate on Monday q

The ship-railway is apparently
not only not "new thing" but a
very old one. 1t has been a scien-

500 B. G. In 1889 the Venetian

moved the Venetian feet over
land from the banks of the Adige

A BILL has passed the lower
house of congress to punish rob
berry, larceny and burglary in this
territory. Its becoming law
seems reasonably certain and if so
it will surely have the effect to
prevent, TO some extent, these
crimes. The maximum punish
ment prescribed is fifteen years
imprisonment and 81 900 fine,
whereas the greatest term possi-
BILE under the present law is one
year.

A Little Experience.

The Union Pacific got neatly hung in
a moose OF its own tying. The Nebraska
State Board of Transportation under
toek to regulate the charges OF the rail-
road for freight. TO which the company
objected, applying for and receiving an
Injunction from United States judge
on the ground that the Union Pacific is
government corporation over which
the State has no control. Then the
attorney general OF Nebraska appears
on the scene in suit TO reclaim 81 900, :
900 worth of land secured by the com
pany under State condemnation pro-
eeedings. This brought the company
to its senses, and it turned around and
asked for the dissolution OF its own
injunction, stipulating at the same time
to abide by the rulings of the State
board. The Union Pacific had the same
experience in kansas three years ago.

Recently . Lady OF wealth and no

that she had daughter about 70 grad

some acquaintance with the inward

she delivered herself Of this iEjunc-

out a penny in their pockets-so be
careful not to let Julia get too far.
If Juiia-s ideas about art are de-
rived from her mother there is no
danger OF her ever being an artist
Another time a young lady came
into the studio and announced that
she wanted to take some lessons in
painting. She had seen remarkable
painting by one OF the foremost paint
ers Of the Old World, a picture in
which . monk figured most promi-
nently, and this had fired her imagi-
nation and started an ambition 70 be-
come q painter.

young disciple, q don I want TO learn

tie early in the day, disappointed and
iisgusted with paint brushes and the
