We are no prophet or son Of a

In Memoriam.
To the Chronicle:

To the Chronicles:
Death, cold cruel death, with his
icy touch is ever busy, and the home
where once all was happiness and
love is today sad and lonely, for the
Boatman, pale with his noiseless
oars, and sickle keen entered the
home of w. N. Ussery and with only
a whisper low and sweet bore to a.
fadeless cline, his boy, his noble boy
Lewis. Lewis Ussery was born in
1859, met with tragic death January
A, 1890. Little did he dream LIES
duty was SO soon to end, but alas!
even in lifew are in death, for the
ways of Providence are deep and in
scrutable and past finding out. Yet
full we'll we know Lewis met death
with the lamp of a christian life still
burning. For quite number of
years he grasped the golden key of
Faith, and with firm, I'M
faltering step he walked close with
God. Crushed and heart broken pa
rents, fond AMI loving brothers and
sisters, let each deep heaving
sigh be hushed, for Lewis has not
died in vain, but in land Of change
less love he awaits your coming.
With bowed spirits may each one
look up and learn in heart to say,
"Thy will, 0, God" for twas the
hand of God that stilled his heart
and paled his brow, and with His
arm close about him bore him to a
life iiso5 higher and nobler, yes nobler
than earth affords. IT'S sad to know
that each brother ami sister ne'er
again on earth will greet, but in
realms beyond the sky, aye, in para
disc you'll meet. Yes, in that sun
bright cline where the heart is not
pierced by pain, where the cheek is
not blanched by sickness, where The
blighting dews of death never fall
where blasted world shall brighter
underneath a fairer sphere, where {
King in kingly glory shall assume
the righteous sceptre, and there
around His throne of unchanging
unending love we shall meet, we al
shall meet. LIZZIE HUNT.

To Preserve Good Health.

Is the desire OF all, yet the desire is
often lost sight of through neglect. A
light cold or slight headache is allowed
to take root and thus often brings a long
spell of sickness, which could have been
avoided had a good remedial agent been
used at the proper time. Eiert's Ex-
tract OF Tar and Wild CHEEKY is such
and agent and cure-worker for Coughs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of Blood
Bronchitis, Asthma, Pains in the Chest
and Lungs, and Eilert's Daylight Pills

stipation, Indigestion, Dyspepsia and
distress from overeatfng. They regu-
late the stomach and liver gentle and
pleasant in action ; operate without

Dehorning Cattle.

The authorities Of Sumner county,
Tenn are making war against cattle
shippers for dehorning the poor beasts
when they go to ship them. The
practice is q cruel one aud should be
stopped.
The process is very simple. The
animal is tied to a tree or post or
thrown down and tied, and a heavy
plank placed across its neck and
heavy weights placed thereon.
The horns are then sawed off close
up to the skull. The torture is 50 in
tense that the animal refuses food for
several days, and is thrown into such
a high fever that death sometimes
results. The principal argument used
by dehorners of cattls that two or
three more animals Y crowded
into car after their ho. Is are off.

THE CHIEF ALWAYS RIGHT.
Suoh 10 Apparently Mr.. Cunning
hams Belief.

TAHLKouAH. Feb. 18th. 1890.
EDITOR CHIEFTAIN ALLOW me
to say through the columns Of
your paper that it does an honest
pan good to the heart 70 read the
recent speeches of Senators Dawes,
Teller and Ingalls, on the Chero-
kee strip question. They stand
up before the world in the United
States senate, the most august
body on the face of the earth, with
clear consciences, and with judg-
ment and ability that no one
can doubt, assert our title to this
land in fee simple and boldly de-
clare that this land is worth from
five to ten dollars per acre and
that the Cherokees should be paid
that price for it. Please note
the sarcasm of that great senator
from Massachusetts, when he says
that the Cherokee commission
came down to the Cherokee nation
with negotiations in one hand and
the sword in the other. He de-
nounces such practices. An idea
occurs to us of something in Uncle
Joels message to the national
council last session when he says
Il quote from memory if the
Cherokees should ever sell this
land it should be done with their
free and voluntary consent, un-
trammeled, without.being bulldozed
into a sale, knowing that they are
parting with peice of property that
belongs to them, and at
a price equal to its full market val
ue. Will you call this stubborn
ness as many Of his enemies say,
or will you call it care, judgment
and foresight. 1t takes a man of
great nerve and judgment to WELD
the affairs of nation.
The same cry was made when
the strip lands were leased "Ifl
you don't take one hundred and |
twenty-five thousand dollars, we
wont get anything. The cattle
men will get mad and leave"
We did not take it and to-day we /
are realizing two hundred thousand
dollars per snnum, all owing to
this .so.called subbornness of our
chief. The cry of our treasury is:
Bankruptcy would have been sew
snty-five thousand dollars per an
num greater than it is, if that ma
ional council two years ago had
succeeded in leasing the land for
'ne hundred twenty live thousand
iollars. Respectfully,
J. T. CUNNINGHAM.

preme court OF tho United States.
Civil cases over which the tri-
bal courts have nojurisdiction are
to be tried by those courts, and all
cases, civil or criminal, over which
jurisdiction is confined by this act
or any other act Of congress, which
are "crimes against justice, which
seems to mean almost anything;
controversies arising between a
member of one nation and mem
ber Of another the rights Of citi-
zenship. with the right of appeal
to the supreme court Of the United
States, and a host Of underlined
crimes and misdemeanors to be
learned from certain laws Of Ar
kansas.
No attachments are to issue
against improvements on real es-
tate while the title thereto is in any
Indian nation, except such as
have been made by persons, com
panies, or corporations operating
coal or other m ines, railroads or
other industries.
Judgments are not to be void for
the sale or conveyance of title to
improvements made on Indian
lands, except in the cases recited.
No nation is to be deprived Of
its jurisdiction over cases where
in members Of any nation, wheth-
er by treaty, blood, or adoption,
are the sole parties.
We had eighteen amendments,
great and small added to the bill,
and yet it does not suit us. There
are yet some serious objections to
it, some of which we may su cceed
in amending, but as far as the
house committee on territories they
are now beyond our reach.
Speed, OF the Fairchild commits
sion, has complimented the people
of the Cherokee nation very high
ly by calling them "lot of Cd
id whelps.' Guess some OF
them will try his Speed, should he
ever 60 down there again.

council spends about twice as
much as II ought and other eSs
penses are incurred for which no
appropriation has been made.
Larger school and general funds
must be provided, else 1t will be
necessary to resort either TO taxa
ton or TO use the proceeds Of the
lease for governmental purposes.
Rental Of two hundred thousand
dollars is paid annually into the
treasury; and according TO law this
money should be paid out per cap
ita whenever the money accumu-
lated shall amount to three humid
red thousand dollars. The last
payment was in 1885 and II is not
likely there will be payment this
year, because there is only two
hundred thousand dollars Of lease
funds in the treasury. What has
gone with the money? 1t has
been borrowed to meet the ex-
penses Of running the government.
Now something is wrong, and men
from each party are figuring away
at it, neither one being very anx-
ious to tell the plain truth, because
it must then be known that there
is not money enough coming from
the various sources to rnn the gov
ernment without using the lease
money. 1t will be known that per
capita payments must be stopped
or taxation taken up. The ques-
tion of the finances Of the Chero-
kee nation should be settled and
settled at once. How much better
it would have been, had those
Jealous Legislators set themselves
to work to settle this question in
stead Of wasting their time intro
ducing bills to pay out per capita
when there was no money in the
treasury.
