TOBACCO TALKS.
Rev. Alex Walker Gives His Views OH the
Tobacco Market

The receipts of leaf tobacco have been
larger and on the increase until this week
| the warehouses have all been over run
with tobacco and with double sales, it is
| all they can do to get through with the
sales. The town has been crowded with
wagons and at the same time we have
had heavy receipts by rail which seems
TO have caused increased animation with
the buyers and prices have been fully
sustained if not a little higher. We think
it is a very good time to see provided the
tobacco is brought to market in good
condition which is of the greatest impor-
lance to the seller. A word to the wise
is sufficient. Sell your tobacco where
you get the most money for it, If you
can get more for your tobacco at other
markets than you can at Durham, we
would say by all means sell your tobacco
where you can get the best prices if
Durham will pay you more than any
other market, you do yourself, your fam
ily and your friends an injustice not to
sell your tobacco in Durham, When we
take into consideration the immense
amount of tobacco manufactured in Dur
ham and at the same time when we re-
member that Durham is known all over
the world as the head center of the fine
tobacco belt of North Carolina and lar
ger orders from foreign countries are
~1oooI lorn hn0oJ1Cn II ic tho o1nfoi
head for all grades Of fine tobacco grown
in North Carolina and that is what they
want and what they must have. 1t is
but reasonable to conclude that Durham
is the place for North Carolinians to sell
their tobacco for the very best prices.

A Sleep Walkers Fearful Leap.

James s.. Claque, a stock raiser of
Greeley, Colo, walked into the police sta
ton at Burlington, a., recently, hatless,
c~oatless and generally bruised up, and
told a remarkable story. He said he had
left his home to visit friends in Galva,
Ills, and had taken a sleeper 1t Denver.
The last thing he remembers was retir-
ing to his coach. When he awoke he
was lying in the ditch at the side of the
track not far from Burlington, badly
bruised and half frozen. He walked to
the police station from there. His theory
was that he had jumped from the train
while asleep when it was running full
speed. An investigation by railroad
authorities proves the truth of the mans
assertion. He is now in the hospital
quite i'll from his terrible exposure

on the Twenty-sixth street beat, which
includes Puyallup avenue White is a
fearless officer, and the other night, as he
was making his beat along Puyaliup ave-
nue. in a deep shade close to the side OF a
building, he deserted the form Of what
he supposed to be a hobo taking a snooze.
Of course that would never do. SO with a
preliminary whirl of his club, a little
cough, and a perceptible frightening of
his stature he approached the hobo.

With that White grabbed the supposed
hobo by the back of the neck. There
was short, preliminary growl, the clank-
ing Of a chain, and then the fur fairly
flew. 1t was the pet black bear Of the
Union club saloon that White had awak-
ened. For about twenty-five minutes
there was a little the l~iveliest scrapping
match there or Whereabouts that has ever
been known in police circles, and when
White got out Of reach of the cub he was
minus a brand new macintosh, a five
dollar hat, the sleeves of his uniform and
his breath, and he was plus numerous

spots. And to cap the climax, the young

ALL THE Nnwsl'
The Great Political Battle of
1901 is at Hand.

The greatest political battle in
the history of the Cherokee ma
ton is now opening. Skirmish-
ing has already begun. Every
body must nave the news. The
INDIAN CnIEFTAIN means that
everybody SHALL have the news.
We do not engage merely to
furnish an ordinary campaign
sheet, solely in the interest of
some partisan political party, but
to publish all the ne,os. The move
ments and utterances of all politi-
cal parties will be reflected from
its pages from week to week. AS
strong, conservative advocate of
popular rights and reform it will
continue to be fearlessly indepen-
dent on all the leading questions Of
the day and to throw its influence in
favor Of the best men, regardless
of party affiliation.
The policy and utterances of the
three standard bearers. Benge,
Mayes and Bushyhead, and of the
candidates for other offices, espec-
tally those for the senate and
council, will be faithfully repro
duced in its columns.
Besides being by far the best
general newspaper in the Indian
territory THE CHIEFTAIN is the
best, fairest and hblest exponent
of progressive and independent
principles. Get your neighbors to
subscribed Swell the lists! While
orators are on the stump appealing
in the cause, you can do something

self in nomination for the office of

to represent the wants Of the pec-
pie Of Cooweescoowee district, to-.
gether with the interests OF the
whole Cherokee people in our
national senate.
| believe that our legislation OF
the next two years will be of grave
importance. During this time the
strong probabilities are that our
landed interests west OF 96" Will
pass from our hands and the future
destiny of the Cherokee nation
will be mapped out. Hence the
great responsibility in looking to
and guarding the interest of every
class OF our citizens which would
ever be my aim-honesty, equa
rights and justice to all, free from
all party affiliations, with an un.
biased view. believing in the prin-
ciples the Alliance enumciates, and
especially that part of the plat
form looking to the allotment oI

join heart and hand with every

CHELSEA, !. June 10, 1871.
EDITOR CHIEFTAIS: Il notice
that many persons are Of the
opinion that we havemany vexed
questions to settle prior to allot-
ment, and that it will take years to
adjust them. Some are sprlnging
the intruder question, which is
virtually settled under instructions
from Commissioner Morgan To
Agent Bennett, dated Washington,
April 25, 1891. Only those who
come under the administrations
prior to Aug. II, 1886, are to be
settled. The instructions are very
plain and positive and cannot be
misconstrued.
II we convince the government
that we desire to take our lands in
seyeralty it would lend US all nee
essary aid TO accomplish it at as
early day as possible, as it is the
desire of the United States ID have
the Indians divide their lands and
have permanent homes. thereby
relieving the Indian department OF
the great responsibility of taking
care Of its wards. In other words,
setting us free TO act for ourselves.
There are ways to settle all ques-
tions that may arise in short
time, If you will keep selfish mo.
lives and politics out.
As to the adopted element, If
the treaties are too complicated for
the parties concerned TO under
stand sufficient to agree upon. refer
the matter to a tribunal established
by consent TO determine and settle
the whole matter. This may be
done soon before the court OF
claims at Washington.

A ooowEBsooowEE TICKET

The district convention of the
Downing party held at the old
court house spring on the 10th and
10Th insts. nominated the following
ticket: For senate Capt. Wm.
Jackson and Doel Baugh; council
Joe Cobb, G.. w. CLARK ). John
Carter, VIM. Mills, John Tucker
Jerrys ButieT tTbe seventh coun-
cilot will he nominated by thsa
Delawares y District judgeA
Watt Starr; clerk-yoe Lahay;
sheriff Carter Turner; solicitor
Arch Mccoy. The contest for the
nomination for the senate was a
warm one, it being almost an even
break between John Foremen,
Webb Vann, Capt. Jackson and
Doel Baugh. Jackson and Baugh
were nominated on the sixth bal
lot. The convention was an open
one aud the utmost fairness pie-
vailed.
Judge Starts nomination was
made unanimous as also was that
of Joe Lahay for clerk. Mr. La
hay seemed to be a favOrite with
the convention as well as a popu-
lar young man throughout the
country; this together with his
being located near the center Of the
district and at the courthouse will
make him a very formidable can
didate for the clerkship. We re-
gard the ticket, with two or three
exceptions, as being a very weak
one, especially the nominations tor
the senate. Capt. Jackson being
an advocate of the COW and miner
al laws and opposed to allotment
| puts him virtually out Of the race,
while Mr.. Baugh is inexperienced
and unknown. Chairman Lee
Crutchfield and Secretary, Jess
Elliott deserve the thanks of the
party for their services during the
convention; they both performed
their duties with ability and fair
. ness.

RELIABLE information comes to
a gentlemen of this town that since
the death of Mr.. Bunch and the
subsequent election of Henry
Chambers to fill the vacancy
caused thereby, the friends of Mr..
Bunch have become dissatisfied
with the National ticket. 1t is a
well known fact that Bushyhead
and Rabbit Bunch were fast friends
and that faction Of the National
party will go over to the Liberals.
No full-blood ever enjoyed as ex-
tended a personal frien dship
throughout the nation as did Rab-
bit Bunch, especially among the
white adopted citizens and the
Delawares and Shawnees, and il
Mr. Bushyhead and Sam Smith
should get this support il will not
be any question as to their elec-
ton; only question as to how
large majority they will have.

PRESIDENT NUTTALL has written
a letter informing the Alliance that
it is not a violation of the constitu-
ton to participate in the politics
Of the country, but rather that il
is their duty to do so. This will
probably relieve the minds of those
who have taken the position that
the order could have nothing to do
with politics.
