THE CHEROKEES.

The man who picks up the Cherokee
Indians for fools will soon drop them. They
are as far removed from idiocy as the aver
age people of this country, and while they
may be lacking in education and cunning,
they do not want common sense, and are
not short on native intelligence.
just now the United States government
is engaged in a scheme which has for its
object the robbery of the Cherol1ees of a
part of their land-that portion west of the
ninety-sixth meridian. The government
does not call it robbery, but purchase. In
a few days commissioners will visit the
Indian nation and endeavor to buy the
land. If the Indians will not sell, as they
are not disposed to do, it has been intimated
that the United States will take the soil,
pay what it pleases for it, not exceeding
81. % an acre and let the redskins whistle.
One ongressman-PETERs, Of Kansas
has gone so far as to say that the Cherokee
title is not good, and the government can
take the land without paying a cent for it,
but he would be willing TO pay the mini
mum price of $1.2j an acre, and thus avoid
ill-feeling.
Meantime the Cherokees remain firm in
their determination to hold on 20 their own.
In their paper, the Adrocate, published at
Tahlequah the editor says the Cherokee
nation owns the s country in ques-
ton. 1T holds deed in fee
simple from the United States,n
and in his opinion no title could be better.
In this the editor would be correct if the
parties were not Indians, whose rights,
even when guaranteed by a solemn treaty,
the government has never felt obliged to
respect
The pluck of the Cherollees is to be ad-
mired, but we are afraid their confidence in
the government and in the deed is mis-
placed. The intention, the determination,
is to open the Cherokee land to settlement
by the whites, and treaties and deeds will
not be permitted to stand in the way of the
scheme The editor of the Advocate says the
nation has been offered S3 per acre
for the entire tract. 1t is to be regretted
that the offer was not accepted, for govern
ment will not pay so much, though it will
get the land. The struggle is a hopeless
one, we fear, on the part of the Indians
bright as they are and lust as is their claim
When Congressman talk as Mr.. PETERS did
the other day, and when men are so land
hungry that hundred thousand of them
rush like mad to get ten thousand quarter
sections thrown open to hOmesteaders, there
is little hope that Indians can maintain
their right.

OUR WASHINGTON correspondent wires
that in few days some official changes
viii be made in Idaho, the Democratic
chief Justice, surveyor general, marshal
and district attorney being replaced by
men of the Republican faith. The present
officials have all been expecting to go, and
they have wondered at the delay. 1t is
understood that the chief justice rendered
his resignation, otherwise he would have
been left undisturbed till the expiration of
his term

parliamentarians can defy the three hun
dred and odd NON bers of the House who
may be actuated by an honest desire tt
work, to serve their consti suents and t.
earn the money which they take from the
people. Even Representative THOMAS B
REED, of Maine, & man who frequently
takes advantage of the rules to defeat the
whole House, in the March number of the
Century had paper condemning them and
urging their abolition. Following are some
extracts from his article:
To such pass has this obstructive policy
come that all sensible men advise their con
sutuentS TO Go business with the United States
with the same care that should be used with
any individual whose antecedents show him to
be adverse 10 paying except under compul.
sion.
One rule puts into the hands of every mem
Der the power OF stopping proceedings alto
The rules, therefore, have abrogated the con
Sttution.
a species of straight-jacket, which though
voluntarily imposed, is as great proof of
unsound mind as if some asylum had ordered
The system Of avoiding action on i'm
portant measures, by means of these clog
g1ng rules, has done much to demoralize the
If the majority of the House of Repre-
southwestern man selected from at least
thirty thousand vo'ers-cannot be trusted, who
can: q
Why is this system maintained? How can it
have lasted 50 long. At first sight it would seem
could not be true. 1t certainly very improb-
able to an outsider.
This evil the extent Of which is not half appre-
ciated by the people OF the nation.
The blocking OF the public business by a set of
rules which can be welded by two or three
men, has aroused and interested the country: for
the rights of all are Immediately concerned. To
gratlfy the natural curiosity OF those who desire
10 know now - men, each the flower of q flock
OF $1,000 voters, could make regulations 10 de-
prlVe themselves OF power, and could year after
year submit TO such deprivation, is one object OF
TINS article. Another object IS to help induce the
people OF the United States to insist upon the
restoration OF Republican government En- the
House of Rel r1sentatiyeS.
While Mr.. REED exposes the almost in
fanny Of the rules it is doubtful if he would
vote to change them, for no man oftener
takes advantage of them. 1t win be re-
membered that last winter he held the
House in idleness for days, until there was
talk of employing violence against him.
So Outrageous became his conduct that he
finally surrendered from fear that the
House, in its anger, would set aside its
rules to override him.
So, we DO not believe that a change for
the better can be made. The few who can
employ those rules with such cleverness
for their own purposes will not consent to
lose the power which the complicated rules
give them. For many years the public has
been demanding the simpifcation of the
rules to such a degree that legislation might
be proceeded with and time and money
saved, but the House has firmly resisted the
people, and made no changes except such
as would further cOmplicate things and in
crease the power of the few.

AN ARIZONA exchange says: THE Salt

many who are not willing to work.

AN IMPARTIAL GOVERNOR.

The governor. of South Carolina, last
week, pardoned two negroes who had been
convicted of Iynching one Of their own race
and sentenced to be hanged. The gov
ernor, who is white man, is being made the
subject of some pretty sharp criticism by
the southern press. One would think from
the structures OF some of the papers that
lynChings were rare and heinous occur
rences at the south, and that there existed
an honest desire to put a stop to them. The
governor did exactly right Probably nine
out of ten executions are those by Judge
LYNCH, and it is safe to say that ninety
nine out of every hundred Of the men who
take part in these "bees' are white, the
great majority of the victims being colored.
Notwithstanding the frequency Of the
lynchings, and though so many men engage
in them that it is matter of public
notoriety who the lynchers are, we
defy the South Carolina critics
to name one man who has
been hanged for lynching The
whites always manage to escape the gal
lows, and why should blacks be made to
swing for an offense which is not deemed
much of a crime by the "pale faces" Let
the color line be drawn on something be-
sides a popular industry. At least do not
make the distinction between the races so
marked as it would be if a negro were
hanged for a crime so insignificant as the
lyr ing of another negro.
In this connection it might bewell enough
to suggest to southern newspapers the
propriety of making war on the lyncliing
industry, and having made the practice un-
lawful and odious, no matter by whom in
dulgcd in, they can with good grace assail
governor for issuing pardon to lynchers.

BATHS.

As a mark of a races advancement is the
number and luxury of its baths, so proof
of the high standard attained by the Penn
sylvania Limited is the elegance and vari-
ETY. of the facilities offered its patrons for
bathing. On the famous train the wash
rooms for men are spacious and completely
enclosed, and there are toilet rooms for la
dies equipped with bowls of Tennessee
marble, comb racks, drawers and all the
dainty appurtenances gratifying to the
feminine taste. On the Limited one may
take sponge bath, a shower or a plunge
bath with choice of hot or cold water. 1t
is reported that car is being built for the
Limited at the Pullman shops which will
be arranged for Turkish and Russian
baths, but it is believed that the rumor is
without foundation.

There are No Hanny DAYS

for those who continue to rise unrefreshed
after nights of unrest. Nervousness, in
somnia, ndigestion-these constitute q
triple alliance that perpetually wars
against mans comfort, and robs both brain
for time with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, and it will give ground and eventually
fly the field. The basis of reform is the
rectifcation of digestion, for the brain and
nerve trouble is simply a reflex of the dis
turbance of that ali important function. a
wineglass full before each meal of the ma
tional stomachic insl res facile digestion,
and a repetition of the plea ant dose before
retiring promotes nerve and muscle invig-
Grating sleep. Associated with indigestion
we usually find biliousness and constipa-
ton. But together or Independent of each
other, these maladies are subiugated by the
bitters, which also remedies kidney trouble,
neuralgia and malaria.
