The Commission Listens to the Views Of
Mayes and Bushyhead.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-The men,
bers of the Cherokee Commission met
yesterday at the Indian Bureau and
heard the statements from the repre-
Sentatiyes of the Cherokee and the
other Indian tribes in the Indian Ter
ritory. Among those who appeared be-
fore the Commission was Chief Mayes
and ex-Chief Bushyhead, of the Chero-
kee Nation. Several propositions were
submitted to the Commission and it
was stated by them If these propositions
could be made the basis Of agreement,
the Cherokees would consent to cession
of their lands
Chief Mayes' propositions to the Com
mission are substantially as follows:
First-That the Government shall
fulfill its obligation to evict from the
Cherokee Nation all persons not de-
clared by the Nation itself TO be citizens
thereof.
Second-That o joint commission
shall be appointed to determine the
question of citizenship claimed by the
several thousands of freedmen now in
the Territory.
Third--That the Government shall re.
linquish its right to settle friendly In.
dams on the Cherokee lands east of the
96th parallel
Fourth-That the Government shall
indicate willingness to pay fair cash
value for the lands known rs the Chero-
kee Outlet
Chief Mayes and ex-Chief Bushyhead,
however, disclaim any authority to
speak for their people.

COUNTY ALLIANCES.

Gathering OF Farmers ut Experimentation
Glover DenOunces Newspaper Fake.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 26.-The presi.
dents of tho County Alliances through
out the State met in Representative Hall
yesterday, sixty counties being repre-
scented. Tho sessions were secret, but
it is learned that they devoted their
time largely to tho discussion Of pOlit-
ical matters.
1t was decided not to urge the calling
OF a special session of the Legislature
for tho enactment Of stay law.
A resolution was adopted demanding
that the farmers be represented on the
Board of Railroad Commissioners and
recommending that r. y. Maxon, Of En-
poria, be appointed Commissioners
Greene's successor.
A resolution was also adopted petit
tioning Congress to admit Mexican lead
ore free Of duty.
President b. II. Clover was seen after
the adjournment of the morning session
and questioned in regard to the alleged
letter addressed by the Alliance to the
Kansas delegation in Congress. There
was nothing TO it." said he. NO such
letter ever was written or thought of.
It originated in the imagination Of an
irresponsible newspaper correspondent
who, considering the important position
he holds under the chief executive Of
the State, should have at least some re-
gard for the truth"

In the old days a very respectable
quality of sugar was made, but only
little more shan was necessary for home
use, although 100 pounds or SO some
times was exchanged for store pay.
The farmer who then controlled q sugar
orchard Of 800 or 400 trees was rec
Ognized as one of the biggest men in
town. At the present time the farmer
is not content with less than 1000
trees, and he holds them as precious
as Tne owner of an orange orchard does
his fruit trees. Every young maple is
carefully looked after. IF there is

Many an orchard to-day is so cleared
of fallen timbers and underbrush that
In the SIMMER months one can drive
oveF nearly every portion of it with
horse and buggy. The small streams
are bridged and good roads are found
on all sides. If there be cheerful
spot on earth during the summer
months it's the farmers sugar place.
Here are the finest .songsters in the
world, and the squirrel is the prince of
the field. Many farmers will not allow
a gun to be taken into sugar-bush
and ofttimes in the spring they place
in easy reach of the squirrels near the
sugar-house a few ears of corn, because
they enjoy the company Of the lively
creatures, which often are quite
domestic.
To-day the maple sugar-bush is in
every way truly homelike. Near the
center of fifty or mora acres of hard
wood timber land-mOstly maple, a few
beech and birch-you find a commodi-
Gus sugar-hOuse, one room of which is
