all persons Of Indian blood, not
members Of any tribe, a portion of

How THMY YnANT-


-
HOW THEY RANT.
Contempt rather than surprise
is inspired by the remarks of the
Kansas City Times. The manner
in which it disposes of Indian
rights and recommends the disre-
gard Of the governments pledges
goes to prove that all "tho out
laws, desperadoes and thieves
have not made their homes in the
Indian Territory The grand idea
is to open the country TO white
settlement. Congress can, upon
q suggestion of expediency, des-
troy the Indian governments of the
territory, declare the Inhabitants
citizens Of the United States, but
can congress set aside a title to
the land, as good and as sacred as
that Of any private citizen of the
United States to his homestead Of
100 acres |? BY what authority of
law that guarantees 10 all people
in all countries the undisturbed
possession Of property, as legally
obtained as the lands of the In
dians Of tie Indian Territory, and
declared to be SO acquired and
owned, by the highest tribunal on
the continent, cah congress or any
other authority open the country
TO white settlement, and give them
homes upon lands owned by 9th
ers? The plea that the Indians
have more land than they can use,
and that the poor Of the states are
needing homes, is that of August
Spies, the Anarchist, who would
make common property of that
which he considered an unequal
share oflife's comfort, and if such
principle can apply to Indian
lands, it can apply to his cattle or
hen-roost. If, as alleged, the In-
dians have more land than they
need, it is no more than can be
said Of thousands of landholders
in the states, and if the Times
wants to put in practice what il
breaches, he can try what his doc
trine is worth nearer home.
You may destroy the Indian
governments Of the Indian Terri.
tory, but can you set a price on
and take the property of the peo-
ple2 If no Indian chooses to sell
his land, what have you gained {?
You "plead the cause of the
pocr and needy" and that you
may not get out Of material for the
exercise your charitable nature in
vite the paupers Of Europe 20 your
shores, and then 90 into editorial
spasms about tho Indians having
more land than they use. You
condemn the Nihilists, censure
the Communists, damn the Anar-
chists, yell about law and order in
the territory, and then howl about
the Washington idea of opening
the territory as being too timed.
Rip right in is the way. Set aside
Indian governments, seize the va
cant lands, price and pay or not
pay for them, as you like, and
crowd out the Indian is the way TO
do business.
Your invitation to the "oppress-
ed and downlrodden" Of foreign
nations TO come to free and abund-
ant America is that OF ''fools who
set dinners for the wise to eat"
In a century more the fatherly
bosom Of Uncle Sam will be so
crowded that there'll hardly be
room for epooring, and in the
spacious one Of Abraham the de-
sire viii be that many will take
