 NEW YoRK-The Goulds have be- come very bullish on AtchisOn and members of that party bought heavily of that stock yesterday. Limitations are given that some important news is pending in connection with this property and that facts will develop soon after the return of GoulL. What ever this newsi is it is to be kept close secret, but 1t is presumed it is con- nected in some way with the proposed ech.me of consolidation of the Gould Huntington and Atchison systems, already reported. Even Kirkher, who has been very conservative in pur- ci,ases, does not hesitate to buy Atch- ison.

SPECIMEN OF POLITICAL AR.
GUMENT IN THE NATION.

From the Telephone.
Drdmdtis Personnae. Telephone,
Arrow, CHIEFTAIN, World.
Telephone-We would respect
fully call the attention of the World
to the undisputed fact that Mr..
Mayes is chief and that the nation
is deeply in debt.
World-Telephone, you're a
billy-goat.
Arrow-Yes, the nation is in
debt, and in our humble opinion,
need not TO have been plunged into
such distress. Careful economy on
part of our principal officials,
especially our chief would, we
think, have prevented tie mis-.
fortunes.
World-Mr. Arrow, who told
you to put in? Besides, you are q
concerted ass.
CHIEFTAIH-With all due defer.
ence to the Telephone and the Ar.
row, the CHIEFTAIN would venture
to say, that the council is also
much to blame for the present
state of things, although this fact
does not relieve the chief from Just
censure for the abuse or misuse O
his great authority as the princip2l
supervisor and manager ii oui
public affairs.
World-Old CHIEFTAIN you've
got the bighead. Horses have tn,
bighead sometimes, but you ar,
not even horse-you old jackass
You look ugly when you ar,
naked. That is our opinion, an,
if anybody does not agree with III
he is natural born fool and
liar. a wolf, sheep, a he-goa
and everything else mean an
ugly. Thus we prove that on
glorious chief is perfect and un
surpassed statesman, and an
reader who cannot see things a
the World does is a blockhead; an
taring and feathering would be to
good for him. In fact he ought I
be hung.

WE MAY NOT AGREE.

Those who have been following
the daily press have not failed to
see the various sensational ac-
counts Of the manufacture OF rain.
The experimenters claim that one
Of these days they will be able to
make rain in any desired quantity
and at any desired time. What
ever the outcome may be, people
will watch these efforts with alb
sorbing interest. If they succeed,
then indeed will the desert "blos-
som as the rose" and the millen-
ium be at hand. But how are we
TO agree as to when it shall rain2
A rain that would be beneficial to
one might be ruinous to another.
Besides, people whose interests
are the same cannot agree as To
when the rain is actually needed.
One farmer might say that he
needs no rain while another will
say he is suffering for it. The man
with dry land will need more than
the one with the naturally wet field
Really, it strikes us that maybe
after all it had better be left &c
Omnipotence to send the rain; ui
poor mortals are liable to get into
trouble about the time and the
amount needed.

THE INTRUDER QUESTION.

EDITOR PHOENIX: - Answering
the question, "How to deal with
the intruder" / respectfully
observe:
II is of great importance to the
five tribes and to United States
citizens lawfully resident to have
peace and order, to stop raids of
Indian police and military against
the intruder and to stop the violent
regulations efiecting residence of
United States citizens by the In
dian government, heretofore prac-
ticed and now apparently threat
ened in the Chickasaw nation.
AS United States Indian agent
for the five tribes l tried to do my
entire duty in respect TO the intru-
der and / know that the present
machinery of government is the
cause of the difficulty, even when
the officials are truly Jealous in the
performance of their duties.
The United States promised in
many treaties to remove the Sin
truder."
The nations need no more prom
ises but better devised govern
mental machinery for fulfilling
promises already made.
The present method of using the
army for this purpose is like using
a sledge hammer for a fly brush.
The intruder at present can only
be fined at Fort Smith at a great
cost to the government and TO wit
nesses and TO Indian nations, or
rejected. He has the right of a
hearing before ejectment before the
Indian agent and the agent has no
fund TO pay witnesses, no author
ity to compel attendance and under
present conditions would need the
divine attributes Of omnipresence
and omniscience TO deal justly
with the questions involved.
Instead Of troops of cavalry or
batteries ofartillery there is eedcd
a justice of the peace in every dis
trict or precinct with the authority
TO impose $1,000 fine and costs or
ten day days imprisonment for
first oaense; $4,000 fine and costs
or thirty days imprisonment for
the second offense; and sixty days
imprisonment for the third or
succeeding ofienses.
A law like this will work. Justi.
ces and juries would not, through
sympathy, object TO convicting the
guilty; Witnesses would not mind
attending trial and the guilty
would be speedily convicted, pun
ished and led to obey the law.
Thus would peace and harmony
prevail.
What is needed is better sys-
tenn OF practical everyday working
laws, rules and regulations ol
authority, by which TO make etiec-
tive the promises made in the
treaty.
If thisi is needed let the Indian
people ask for it, demand il anc
lobby it vigorously through con
gress as other intelligent people
act.
The Cherokee nation has Ia,
promise Of the right 10 put a dele
gate on the hoor Of congress, an
ticipating just such needs as this

FARMING.

The heavy yield of crops this
season should put more people in
the notion to cultivate the soil than
are at present engaged in that
pursuit. The ratio Of producers
in this country is too small. There
are thousands of acres dying idle
that might be producing grain and
fruit. The farmers of this country
get the greatest returns for the
least labor Of any class Of people
in the world. The land is gem
orally rich and fresh, and produces
abundant crops with less labor
than the worn out lands of the
states. We should have more
farms and better farms. The
farmers are the producers, there
fore all actual increase of wealth
must come through and by them,
The best and most permanent o.
our population are farmers. There
is no excuse for any one to be idle
or unemployed. Boys should bs
taught that tilling the soil is an
eminently respectable business
and That no class Of people OF
earth are 80 Independent as The

The Cherokee commission will
again visit Tahlequah in Novem-
Der when council meets and renew
its negotiations for the purchase
Of the Strip lands. Itisreasonably
safe to sey that their offer will not
be raised to a figure sufficient TO
bring about a trade. Such being
the case the Cherokee nation,
through its council, should lose
no time in taking the proper steps
to secure the Outlet for her citi-
zens. United action in this one
particular is very necessary to
success. The idea of a great many
congressman is to open the Outlet
for settlement and let the Chero-
KEGS take their chances in the
courts afterwards. But If the
rights Of our people are presented
in the proper manner and at the
right time, no such action will be
taken by congress. Besides, we
have great many friends in con-
gress who know the status of those
lands pefectly well and will not
allow any action in the matter not
in accord with the treaties. But
the time has passed when holding
still and waiting is the best policy
for us to pursue. The question
will be settled in some way before
the adj ournment of next congress.
