full to their trust in furnishing
feasts for Cannibals in the south
sea islands; but they. have never
shown any great generosity in
driving their bargains with the
Indians. We cannot get FIVE, but
may get three dollars per acre. II
that sum can be obtained and the
matters east of ninety-six settled
TO the satisfaction of all, this na-
ton will make the best bargain it
ever made. The proper thing for
this nation to do is to ask for the
other consideration together with
the fair price to be paid; and if
the United States viii give moth

better refuse utterly to sell.

IT is said the Choctaws and
chickasaEs are not only willing
but anxious to part with their
western lands for one dollar and
twenty-five cents per acre. Re-
port says that ifno commission is
provided to treat with them soon,
they viii apply to congress to sell.
Something must be wrong some
where; either the report is false,
or the Choctaws and Chickasaws
have no good title to their lands,
or else they are "hoodOoed" ter

feasts give promise of being cold
and suspicious affairs.
Speaker Reed usually walks
home from the capitol, and you
can be sure that there is always
somebody lying in wait 10 catch
him and ask for some favor,
as he strides up the avenue. His
enormous body shakes as he walks
and the gait is rapid but not firm
His head is bent forward
as that Of Q man who has
habitually poured important ad-
vice into shorter mems ears. The
smile on his face Is one of perfect
content and his eyes, looking like
small beads in that immense mass
of jeily-like flesh, take in every
thing. No one in his party 10 half
SO well pleased with his success as
a speaker as is Mr.. Reed himself.
For years he has frettsd at being
kept in the background, and now
the sarcasm and accusation Of
his political enemies are as dear to
him ss the congratulations Of his
friends.
But if the present session has
glorified Reed, it has depressed
Major Mckinley. The Ohio
mans leadership is waning.
Reed takes all the laure.s. The
recent debate on the new rules and
the prior fillibustering, offered
Mckinley an opportunity ofUhich
he failed to avail himself. As the
representative Of the majority in
the most important eommittss Of
the house, he exhibits the same
defect that Carlisle does as repre-
sentative ofthe minority. He is toe
slow. With all their experience and
good sense these men are unfortun-
ately placed for neither has the cut
and come again power that make
such men rs Reed and Randall
leaders on the floor.
The contested election cases are
especially annoying TO the demo-
Gratis. The debates on these cases
have developed the strength OF
Crisp, of Georgia, who is rapidly
going to the front rank and who is
personally popular with his demo-
cratic colleagues. He is the readi-
est man now on the house floor, OF
his party. IL the democrats had
their choice to-day Crisp would be
speaker. If the republicans had
had it TO do over again, l doubt if
Mckinley would receive a quarter
OF the votes he had last December.
Thus are regulations lost and
made in a few months.

not mean and intend something
less when they omitted these
words in the Cherokes treaty.
MAS it not as necessary to use the
words Including an equal inter.
est in the soil and national funds, u
in the Cherokee. as in the Greek
treaty, and if they were necessary
IN one instance to convey any
right of soil and funds, were they
not equally necessary in the other?
The commissioners on the part of
the United States knew that the
words, call the rights and privileg-
es of native citizens" could and
would be understood to mean only
all the civil and political rights Of
native citizens, and that in ORDER
to convey any right in the sCil,
which the first part of the article
declared the negro had not, it vas
necessary specifically to name The
additional rights to be conveyed.
| If the 9th article of the Cherokee
treaty conveys any rights of prop
erty to the negro, it is the first re-
corded instance Of the kin i where
property was conveyed sithOut
naming it, since the "sarth was
divided in the days of Peleg.
= If his friends tell
the truth about him, and both par
ties agree in this, you must first
buy him to convince his judgment,
and you must buy him to keep
his vote. He has become, through
this cOrrupting influence afoul and
disgraeeful blot upon politics and
grows fouler and filihier every re-
curing election. The black
bosses dispose of their votes at so
much a head. l know there are
worthy individual exceptions to
this classification, but the excep-
tons are growing each election
fewer. Is there any reason why
the thousand intelligent Chero-
KEGS, white men, Delawares and
Shawnees of COoweescoOwee dis
trict should allow the rotten boss
es OF Gooseneck to control that dis
trict? The greed for Office, through
the negro vote, has disgraced our
politics too long, and will ruin the
country if we do not call 1 halt.
II the National party in its plat
form next August, accords in the
main with these views and places
a candidate Of clean record upon
its ticket, it will receive my hum
bic support; but | am done with
the GoOsenecK politicians, and the
party that is willing to rob the In
dian, 10 enrich the negro, for his
vote. Respectfully,

DON'T Ask roo Nunz

There seems to be some obiec-
tion to TEE CHIEFTAIS calling the
price, five dollars per acre, de-
manded for the strip by the Table
quah mass meeting, a modest price.
A good brother thinks the term
was used IN a spirit Of ilony.
Wen. yes, so Il was 10 = certain
extent. Now no one is more anx-
ious than TIE CHIEFTAIS, for the
Chsr0kees TO secure the greatest
sum possible for the strip; nobody
doubts the loyalty Of this paper;
but it does not think five dollars
per acre can be realized, hence
does not demand that amount.
Some people seem TO think that
in dealing with the United States
we are dealing with children or
philanthrOpists, when we are
not We are dealing with a gov
ernment that Is keen, merciless
and drives q bargain as a man
drives a nail be cares nothing
for the nail and w0ul1 not take the
trouble to touch II If he did not
intend 10 be benefited by it. The
United States cares nothing for
this people and would not offer ne
g0fiafiOns but for the benefits to
be derived from the purchase. It
has always been so. The United
States government never did pay
anything ike a fair price for any
Of its lands. Look at its dealings
with the Indians one hundred
years ago. The Cherokees did
not realize more than ten cents an
acre for much Of the land 1t gave
up. Only a fraction Of their real
value was paid for Louisiana and
Alaska. The Creeks got only one
dollar and 4 quarter per acre for
Oklahoma, and the ChOctaws and
Chickasaws show a disposition to
sell for the same Insignificant sum,
and yet they do not ask for the
concessions we VIII ask. The
people OF the United States are
kind and generous in 4 way.
They annually send out nice warm
gaunels for the poor Ignorant Hot
tentots. and have been very faith

Judge Scales to Mr.. Jesse Coch-

Judge mentions one OF two cOnces-
sions to be asked that have not

His construction Of the treaty re-
lating TO the negroes rights TO soil
is new to many, but he argues his
case like a judge. His words in
regard to that Goose neck affair,
the practice Of buying and selling
votes, are so fitly spoken that ev-

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WAsIfS8roSs d u MAI 10. lc9Q-
The Montana senatorship was
treated in the senate committee on
elections and privileges, as is al
ways the practice in contests for
seats, from a purely party stand
point. In accord with this Gus
tom the majority recommends the
seating of Saunders, the Repub-
lican. The grounds for this rec
ommendation is that the republi-
can house in Montana was the le-
gal house as its members held Ger
tificates of election and the body
was recognized as the legal house
by the state senate. The report
will be made in a few days. SeEa-
tor Gray will prepare he.minority
report, which viii be an exhaus-
tive argument for the democratic
side. Senator Turpie will not
sign either report, but will likely
make one for himself, as he holds
that no formal election of senators
has been accomplished and be-
lieves the case should be returned
to Montana for action.
The senate committee on privi-
leges and elections has reported
on the request of Call that the
accuracy Of the report Of his speech
on the Saunders Florida murder
as published in the Congressional
Record, be investigated. Tie
committee declined to question the
accuracy or the stenOgrapher and
recommended that the report of
the speech stand without correc-
ton. The additional question as
TO how far 4 senator may 60 in de-
bate and be within parliamentary
bounds was recommended to be
referred TO the sena te committee
on rules for definition.
In this beautiful manner does
the senate sit In judgment on hair
pulling among its old women
Senator Chandler claimed that
Senator Call had interpolated into
the published report of his speech
remarks derogatory 20 his New
II ampshire dignity. This accusa-
ton Mr.. Call resented with all the
fervency of his southern nature.
OF course the charge was true and
everyone knew it to be true. Still
Mr.. Cal language as used on the
floor was fully as bitter and per-
sonal as was the language in the
Record. He had added nothing
ofimpOrtance. The custom of al
lowing senators and representa-
tives to revise the official reports
of their speeches should have some
limit. At present ii sometimes
means that the official report Is
mangled beyond recognition, and
a speech that was when delivered
a miserable, stumbling failure be-
comes after pruning and padding q
billIant success. When you start
to revising a speech there is no
telling where you end.
The house is deep IN figures.
The scores Of public building ap-
preparations are before it, and the
end seems far off. The mill grinds
rapidly enough. Regularly a bill
is called up in the committee Of
the whole, it is recommended that
the proposed appropriation be re-
duced about twenty-five per cent.
and then the able salons grab the
next one and put it through hOri-
reduction.

ing some difficulty recognizing
their republican state association
