damaged in their stock by the
spread Of disease, IL IS their own
lookout--the law has been satisfi-
cl and the poor fellow who intro
duccd tho cattle has been cuircd
around by The strong arm Of the
nations Authority.
The law was intended to reach
all citizens alike, native or white
or black, or adopted, but the lattor
two have advantages, ifihey prefer
TO exercise them, over the native,
against the laws execution, by
appealing TO the government of the
United States. This though is in.
excusable, because there is aremo-
dy against any alleged injustice
OF tho law, before tho courts OF the
country and in the service OF legal
processes. Much though depends
upon the sheriff and the construc-
tion he puts on the law as he is
both its judge and executor.
The law has got us into O mud
die, because our councillors did
not feel far enough ahead to dis
cover what might be the conse.
quencos and what might have pre-
vented trouble.

THB McOLELLAN cow TROU-
BILE.

As stated BY Judge r. w. Wal
kcr, attorney for the nation before
Agent Gwen, in McClellaa's COW
case, all the facts, as TO the exact
time when the cattle were intro
duced, were not ascertained, os
Mcclellan, on the objection Of his
counsel and grounds Of self crimi-
nation, declined 10 state, and rs
refused by the freight agent at
Gibson Station to show McClel-
lan's bill Of lading to the sheriff Of
Coowcescoowoo district. IL ap-
pears from this that no positive
proof h as been transmitted TO The
commissioner of Indian affairs hat
Mcclellan has really violated any
law Of the Cherokee nation by In
Producing his cattle when he did.
II seems there we're several un-
usual questions involved in tho
examination, in which McClellan's
plea that he was a citizen Of The
United States did not enter, aud
which, according to the agents in-
depreciation makes no difference be-
tween a native or an adopted citizen,
as to the privilege Of appeal from the
operation of law of the Cherokee
nation in alleged conflict with the
constitution Of tho United States.
A native Cherokee, in the shoes OF
Mcclellan, has the same right to
apply to the authorities at Wash
ington in case of an enfcr smcnt
Of law that unoousiti onally
doprivos him Of his proplrty, ns
there is a treaty provision that
the Cherokee nation by its legisla-
turo shall pass or enforce no law
in conflict with the cons titulion OF
the United States. This Is n new
wrinkle and goes to show there is
more in our treatios aud relations
with tho United States than is
dreamed Of in our common every
day philosophy,
Mr.. Walker stated that the agent
had declared that no would send
the case up to the department
without prejudice, merely giving
a statement OF facts as brought
out by the investigation. Briefs
by the nations council and Nc
Clellan's were transmitted with |
tho case. 1t is rumored that the !
agent had said that the Cherokee |
stock Law was in conflict with three |
sections of the United States con-
stitulion. If such is the fact the
question Is as good as settled in
IcCiellan's favor.

Mental Organization Of Criminals.

Dr. Henry Mandsley, OF London, IN bus
address before the recent meeting OF the
ARCHAEOLOGICAL association In this city,
distinguished between the occasional or
accidental criminal. who presents nothing
characteristic in form, feature or cere-
bral structure, and the natural or essen
tial criminal. The latter is what he is
by no reason of defective intellect. ut
is not true that lack of intellect and Of
moral feeling go together in defective
mental organizations III some instances.
The defcc, seems 70 be mainly moral.
Those of this class are either born OF
criminal parents, or sprung from families
in which insanity, epilepsy or some nearly
allied homeopathy has existed II is only
of this class that we cen say that they
have a special criminal neurosis- third
very distinct group is that of those who
break the law while iaboring under posi-
tive disease"
The conclusion reached by the investi-
gator is. that there is 10 general criminal
constitution predisPosing TO crime, and
that no theories Of criminal anthropology
are so well grounded as to justify their
introduction into revised criminal law.
The righ. aim of scientific study is indi-
Gated As the investigation, FIRST. OF crimes
