The Fatal Mistake of New York State
WhitecaPs.
Worthwhile, N. Y, Oct. .O.-A ter
rible tragedy was enacted at the home
of Samuel Darlington, half a mile iron
this place, at a late hour Saturday night.
1t appears that a young man named
Oscar Barclay has made himself noto-
rious by his relations with two women
and his visits to the Darlington home
stead. Barclay has been warned re-
peatedly by his father and three brothers
but he paid no attention to them and
they decided to teach him a lesson. Ac-
cordingly they disguised themselves as
Whitecaps. and, accompanied by about
dozen young men similarly disguised,
proceeded to Carrington's residence.
The party drove Darlington from the
house, tarred and feathered him, placed
him astride 4 rail and carried him thus
for quite distance, then he was re-
leased and left to the care of himself
The Whitecaps returned to the house
for young Barclay, but, having wit
messed their treatment of Darlington,
he determined to resist them AS
they came to tho door he ran
upstairs. and. Selling a musket which
he leveled at the leaders, ordered them

and as the Whitecaps pressed forward he
took a careful aim and fired A shrek
and groan followed and one of the
Whitecaps fell dead. the right side Of
his face and head having been blown to
atoms. The victim proved to be Fred

coroner and other persons were sent to
notify the judicial officers of the village
Young Barclay made no effort to escape
and was taken into custody Four
of the Whitecaps were arrested
and the rest will no doubt be captured
Public sympathy is in Oscars favor.

The Presidents Official Call For a Day OF
Thanksgiving.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The President
has issued the following Thanksgiving
proclamation:
A highly favored people. mindful of their de.
pendence on the bounty of Divine Providence
sh ould seek fitting occasion to testify gratitude
and ascribe praise to Him who is the author of
their many blessings. 1t behooves then to
year and bless God for His infinite mercy in
vouchsafing to our land enduring peace. to our
people freedom from pestilence and famine. to
our husbandmen abundant harvests. and to them
that deserve rccompense for their toll Now,
therefore, /, Benjamin Harrison. President OF
the United States of America. do earnestly rec
ommcnd that Thursday, the twcnty-eighth day
of this present month of November, be set apart
as day of national thanksgiving and prayer.
and that the people of country, ceasing
from the cares and labor OF the working day,
shall assemble in their respective places or
worship and give thanks to God, who has pros
pered our way and made our paths the
paths of peace; beseeching Him to bless the
day to our present and future good, making 1t
truly one of thanksgiving for each reunited
home circle as for the Nation at large.
In witness whereof. have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal OF the United States
to be affixed. Done at the City OF Washington,
this first day of November. in the year OF our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and eighty
nine, and OF the independence OF the United
States the one hundred and fourteenth.

NOTHING IN THE WAY.

An Opinion by the Assistant Attorney
General as to the Power of the Chero
KEGS to Relinquish Their Claim to the
Outlet.
of Secretary Noble an opinion has been
given by Assistant Attorney-Genera1
Shields upon the question whether the
Cherokee Nation can relinquish its
claim to the title of lands known as the
Cherokee Outlet without violating
the Constitution of the Cherokees of
thereto adopted November %.
1886. The opinion holds that
the Nation, under authority given in
the Indian Appropriation act, March Q
last, can relinquish to the United States
all its right, claim or title in the Cher
okee Outlet in accordance with the pro-
visions of said act, that such relinquish-
ment would not be violation of the
Constitution as amended of the Chero-
kee Nation, because the Constitution
does not prohibit such cession to the
United States, and the sale of the Out
let would only be change in the char
acter of the property; that if the Consti-
tuition did prohibit such action it would
not have any effect, because by ex-
pressed terms of the treaties made
with said Nation the Cherokees &C
knowledge the sovereign power of
the United States, decree themselves to
be under its protection, and in article
of the treaty of 1856, which gave the ma
ton the right to esta blish local govern
ment, it has been expressly declared
that Cherokee laws shall not be incon-
sistent with the Constitution of the
United States, and such acts of Congress
as have been or may be passed for the
regulation of trade and intercourse with
the Indians. The Cherokee Commission
will be able, under this opinion, to COM
plete the negotiations on consent of the
Cherokee Council.

sf Reciprocity with Our Neighboring

WASHINGTON, Oct. se.-In an inter
view on Mexican import taxes, Hon.
Thomas Ryan, Minister OF the United
States to Mexico, says: "A decree has
been issued to take effect the first Of
the month, removing livestock and
fresh meats from the free list and inn
posing heavy tariff. The tariff ON
fresh meats will be five cents poupd,
which is practically prohibitory. The
tar1n on livestock is scarcely less

value OF exports from the United States

balance OF trade has been several mil

can railroads. 1t is to be regretted that
no figures are availa BILE to show our
Mexican exports. The law provides
merely for collating figures of maritime
commerce and is antiquated. 1t should
be amended by Congress at an early
day. Mexico is wonderful coun-
try, wonderful in people, in
climate, in resources and posi-
bilities. The United States pays out
500, 600, 900 in cash annually for pro-
ducts which Mexico could furnish us
and would take in exchange the pro-
ducts of our manufactures and enter
prises. / believe that even a limited
measure of reciprocity would, within
five years, develop Mexican commerce
of 500, 600 annually. 1t is to be hoped
that both Nations will awake to the op-
portunities and advantages of closer re-
lations. Mexico wants machinery, ag-
ricultural implements, clothes, tools.

Democrats Enthusiastic Over Letter
From the Ex-President.
BROOKLYN, n. Y, Nov. 3.-Governor
Hill addressed an audience of 5000
people in the Academy of Music Friday
night after John p. Adams, chairman of
the local Democratic organization, had
caused the following letter to be read:
John r. adams, President:
NEW YORK, Oct. 3O.-Dear Sir: have re-
ceived your invitation rendered on behalf of
the Democratic organization of Kings County
and confess that it is difficult for me to de-
such kind party friends. / can not, however,
satisfy myself that ought by accepting your
invitation to depart from the course which I
have followed in all similar cases. know how
ably the speakers who address the meeting will
present the topics which are prominent in the
canvass and how well the claims of our candi-
dates to public confidence will be advocated.
The thought which is uppermost in my mind
leads me to suggest that this is time for the
Democrats of our State to guard against the
Indifference and lack of activity which apt
to result from the reaction of q recent Prest-
dental campaign, and which also too often eX-
ist when the grade and character OF the ofices
to be filled are not such as to inspire the great
est party enthusiasm We should constantly
bear in mind that every election involves Dem-
ocratic principles so important to our party,
and that indifference should not be permitted
to invite defeat when ft and worthy men and
true Democrats are presented as candidates
for public office.
In the pending campaign. though the cam
paign has to do with State policy and State of.
fees, it can not be denied that it is also related
in IN important way to fundamental party prin-
ciple>, and it should be pleasure it is our
duty to give active and earnest support to the
worthy and honest men and the tried and true
members of the Democratic p Arty who
candidates I hope that your mass meeting
may be the means of arousing that Demo
cratic cati ity, watchfulness and enthusiasm
which will insure Democratic success. Yours
very truly, GROVER CLEVELAND.

Religioas Resentment Follows . Lecture
1t Axtell, Kan.-The Nethodist Church
DamAged-Arrests Made-The 1Gnitaxy
Called For.
TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 1.@Startling and
sensational news was received yesterday
morning from the little town of Axtell,
in Marshall County, which was to the eff
feet that a real war had broken out
there between Protestants and Catho-
lies. and that riot was expected to
occur.
1t appears that Protestant minister
and lecturer whose name and denomina-
ton are not reported, desired to give a
lecture at Axtell on last Saturday night
ION religious TOPICS" and that, after
considerable trouble, he secured the
First Methodist Church for his purpose.
He afterwards gave it out that his lee
ture would be devoted to exposing GER
tain things connected with Catholicism,
and by this means aroused public curl
osity and resentment on the part of the
Catholics.
At the appointed time he made his APP
pearance in the edifice and began his lee
ture. Before he had proceeded far he
was interrupted by the arrival of a
crowd determined to stop him. The
Catholics had organized and went to
the church in body to see that their
religion was not insulted. They assault
ed the lecturer, it is claimed, threw him
and four of his auditors out of the win
dows, not stopping to open the windows,
and broke up the meeting. There were
several fights inside and outside the
church and considerable blood was
spilled, but nobody was dangerously
hurt.
The next day four of the ringleaders
in the riot were arrested and taken to
the county Jail at Marysville, where, it
is understood, they still are.
The town was all excitement, bust
ness was suspended and the mayor
called for the assistance of the militia.
