THE WAY OUT IS PLAIN.

If a sale of the Strip is effected
this council, even at the low figure
Of 81 40 per acre, it will meet with
the approval of -tenths of the
people of this nation, if the con.
cessions we are asking for in con.
nection with the sale are granted.
The removal of the intruder alone
would be worth millions of dollars
to the Cherokee people. If they
are removed the only great ques-
ton then will be, how to keep
them out. There is no doubt in
the world but what the most of
them would come back just as
soon as they could get back. If
we were granted the privilege of
dealing with them ourselves we
could not keep them out. The
whole nation could not raise an
army sufficient to keep them out.
No, if we desire to get rid of the
intruder we must remove the in
ducement for him to come among
us. Just as long as we try to hold
our land in common, just so long
will he try to be one of us. This
citizenship question has grown be-
yond our control; it is absolutely
unwieldly to us and we know it,
and we are now offering to relin-
quish to the government more than
one-half our domain to help us out
Of the dilemma.
Suppose the United States
should put all the intruders be-
yond our borders to-day, could we
keep them there2 No one would
be so reckless as to claim for one
moment that we could. They
would come swarming back in
such numbers that it would para
lyze our government and wreck our
institutions to undertake to cope
with them. Then what shall we
do, submit and be robbed? No
that would not do. Shall we leave
the matter to solve itself by mac
ton on our part? No; that surely
will not do. In our humble opin.
ion there Is but one remedy left to
Us, and that is to allot the land
The Uniled States is now in the
notion to help us solve the intrud
er or citizenship question. w
had better avail ourselves of th'
opportunity. When the Stril
passes from us, as ii no doubt viii
soon, then we will have nothing
With which to pay them for thei
assistance. Council cannot afford
70 wholly ignore this great ques
ton that Is pressing itself upon us
We know that there are men il
both houses of council who see tn
matter in its true light, who knoV
that allotment must come-yea
have been advocating it for year
but it seems they are too COW
ardly to stand up for what they
know is right and which they hay
promised their constituents, be
cause, perchance, they may be il
the minority. All, how blind am
bition and party fealty can sub yer
the principles Of men ! How tb'
promise Of place and power car
dopraye and demoralize the better
Judgment Of men who, otherwise
are honest aud patriotic enough
But the question must soon soly'
itself, Whether il has many adj
yooaies or few, alisimeni viii b.

near future.

soRIBNER's MAGAZINE.
AN EXCEPTIONAL YEAR.


The year 1891 has been marked
by greater advance than any sim
liar period since the magazine was
established, Not only has the
literary and artistic excellence
been maintained and increased, but
a corresponding gain has been
made in the sale and influence Of
the magazine. At the end of 1891,
the circulation has risen to more
than 10000. 1t may justly be
promised that the further improv-
ments for the coming year will be
proportionate to these largely in
creased opportunities.

CITIES.
1t is proposed to publish a series

special study and work among the
poor of the great cities. The plan
will include an account of the con-
ditions Of those cities lin many
lands) where the results Of research
will be helpful for purposes of COM
parison as well as for their own
intrinsic interest. While, from a
scientific point of view, the arti-
cles will be contribution Of great
importance, the treatment will be
thoroughly popular, and the elab-
crate illustrations will serve To
make the presentation of the sub
ject vivid as we'll as picturesque.

Views on Anesthctics.

Dr. Horatio Wood shows by charts
md the results Of experiments that, con-
erary 10 the general belief. chloroform
kills ty paralyzing tho respiration as
we'll as the heart. and that ether kills by
paralyzing the heart before respiration
has ceased. He regards nitrous OXIDE as
the safest anesthetic-only one death
having occurred out of $4,000 admins
tratiops. Ether is probably safer than
chloroform in TIE ratio Of one to three
or one to five, and the best method of
administering it is to use the inhaler
made Of cloth stretched across the wire
frame which Is surrounded by rubber OF
leather
Plenty.of fresh air should DO mixed
with the ether. Chloroform, is probably
more fatal on account OF its greater
specific gravity. 1t lies in the lungs and
mixes slowly with the air, completely
poisoning the nerve centers before oxy
gen can gain admission to the blood. II
IS less dangerous in hot climates, where
It is more readily volatilized. Ether i,
moro volatile and therefore less danger
