ment- He said he and his people would
rather never have patent for their
lands in severalty, but would leave it
absolutely in care of the Government

cope with the willy whites and it was
necessary that they be protected in
some way.
Chairman Jerome and Judge Wilson
explained several important points to
the satisfaction of the Indians, after
which Chief Tohee said: Il am ready
now to sign the paper"
Then the blind chief placed his sig
nature by mark to the contract, signing
three copies-one to go to the Interior
Department and one each to the Com
mission and to the tribe.

DAIRY DOTS.

The smoke of political battle has
cleared away aud we can gaze dis
passionately upon the result.
The Democrats claim 1876 major
ity in the House of Representa-
tives.
This leaves the Republicans
hopelessly in the minority.
Further than annihIlating the
presidential aspirations of certain
Party leaders and the administer
ing of a rebuke to the mugwump
element, ali is well.
The canvass for '92 as strange
as it may seem has been opened al
the close of this one.
The defeat will nerve Democrats
into the most herculanean efforts
and sOlidify Republicans in way
never dreamed of before.

The New York Mail and Express
in it's issue of the 11th inst. SAYS:


Dispatches published in two of our
democratic contemporaries in this city |
state explicitly that at the recent cleo |
ton Thomas f Miller had a clear plu |
rality of the votes cast for Representa- |
tive in the Seventh Congressional Dis |
tTict of South Carolina AS the matter |
stands now, the democrats acknowl |
edge that Miller had more votes than
their candidate, Elliot, but they claim
that the latter was elected. This they
do on two grounds:
list. the State law provided that the
| bal OTIS shall be inches long and %
wide; and MiIler's ballots were only AZ
inches long and 81 l6 inches wide.
Second, the law provides that the
ballot SHALL be without ornament,
designation. symbol or mark Of any
kind whatsoever, except the name or
names of the person or persons voted
for and the Offi;e or officas to which
such person or persons are intended 10
be chosen" On Mi)er's ballots the
legend was For Representative in the
ifty second Congress Seventh Dis
tricf, Thomas K Miller'' Elliot's tick
cts read simply, "Representative in the
Fifty second Congress. seventh District
William Elliot" The democrats claim
that the word, for, IN Miller's Ii kets
|
mus be thrown out.
The certificate of election will, of
coutsa, be given to Elliot; bnt the O-se
il sucN plain one and such strong one
that MIR. Miller ought to make a contest.
: To be sure. the next House is demOcra tic
and would re use to 81 at MIR. Miller on
account of his color il for no other rea son:
? but the contest should be made nevertae
less, 80 as 10 put the democrats on record
| No hot ha oh Of
> | election, theoretically. is to ascertain Il G
will of the majority of the voters. There
is no doubt that lOrity of voters in
p | the Seventh District OF SOuth CarOlir
cast ballots for Thomas E. Miller. The
denial to him of his seat, after a contest
y that would have the attention of the
whole country, on such barefaced tect
l. nicality. would arouse the ration to
!, sense of the necessity of a K deral Law
that would prevent the annulling of The
popular will by any such absurd Sat
O law as this one in South Carolina.
o Let MIR Miller collect his proofs, there
fore, and make his contest. If he had
81 plurality of the ballots cast, he is elected
and the Mg'I and Express II back hin
to the ehd of the fight.
That is plain talk from one o
- the stauuchest Republicans in thi
. country and speaks volumes in fav

Never we're we more surprised

When he would declare that Off

of the fact or contest as to their
legality, he goes bOwshot beyond
