DEPEw AND REID.


The Two Millionaires Air Their Elo-
quence in Ithaca.
ITHACA, N. Y, Oct. 31.-A crowd OF
10000 enthusiastic people tonight en-
deavored to force themselves into two
halls with capacity of 1000 each, the
all.pervading desire being to see and
hear Whitelaw Reid and Chauncey M.
Depew. The latter spoke at the Opera
house, receiving an enthusiastic well
come. In the course of his remarks he
said: f'Where is this poverty, this Ca
lamity, our Democratic friends say is
abroad in the land today? They also
say protection is robbery and unconsti-
tutional. discover as a lawyer, read
ing the decisions of the supreme court
of the United States, that in construct
ing the constitutionality of laws, the
decision is always on the side of the
need, liberty and prosperity OF the peo-
ple."
Mr. Reid received an ovation on being
introduced and said in part: "The
Democratic party ia not known by it's
work to this generation. 1t never had
president and congress together. For
the first time the political situation is
such that if you defeat the choice of the
Republican convention, you make it
certain that you will defeat the majority
of the house and senate for the first time
since the administration of Buchanan,
and the Democratic party will be able to
work it's will. The great questions of the
day are reciprocity and honest money.
The Republican party declares for
a protective tariff. What does Cleve-
land say about reciprocity? l find moth
ing. Gan you produce one word from
Cleveland's letter of acceptance explain
ing whether he ia IN favor of national
bank currency, the best currency the
country ever saw, or whether he favors
the sham and corrupt currency which
the Democratic platform declares in
favor Of"
In conclusion Reid challenged the ver-
dict of the American people upon the
character and success OF the administra-
ton of Benjamin Harrison.
"How about the force bill?" yelled a
Democrat in the extreme rear.
''To begin with" said Reid. "there is
no force bill. There was proposed bill
directing the federal authorities to reg
ulate elections at which federal officers
were to be elected. Why should not
the federal authorities supervise and
assure the accuracy and juctice OF
the election of federal officials? II
wrong, Cleveland for his act of 1886,
directing it's execution, must first be
arraigned before we, the Republican
party, can be assailed. It's opponents
are nullitiers of the fourteenth and fif.
teenth amendments to the constitu-
tion."

did not propose to do this but merely to
raise revenue for the necessary ex-
penses of the government. The Demo-
cratic party had not, however, declared
for free trade but simply for constitu.
tional taxation for the support OF the
government without compelling one man
to part with his earnings for the benefit
OF another man. The government has
right to tax the people for private pur-
poses, or it has right to tax them for
public purposes. There is no middle
ground. The Mckinley bill VIZ passed Tor
the purpose Of getting contributions for
the Republican campaign. By it the
people were divided into two classes
one receiving benefits, the other receiv-
ing burdens.
The senator ridiculed the assertion
that the Mckinley bill benefited the
American tin plate industry, and, in
conclusion, appealed to his audience to
vote the Democratic ticket from top to
bottom.

Tariff Address.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 31.-The Union
League of Philadelphia has issued an
address to the business men of the coun-
try, showing the effect of lthe Mckinley
tariff law on business and wages in
Philadelphia. The address is based
upon exact statements of increase taken
from the books of 66 mills and manu-.
factories OF Philadelphia; the names OF
the firms are given. 1t states that the
percentage of increase in the amount OF
wages paid for the first nine months OF
1899, over the corresponding period OF
1890, ranges from IL to 65 per cent ;
taking all together, the average increase
is 331s per cent.
"What is true of the mills reported" ="
says the address, sis substantially true
OF all. They include large and small at
random, and are fairly representative OF
the general industrial interests"

New YORK, Oct. 31.-Four thousand
people crowded Cooper union tonight to
listen to Senator John G. Carlisle talk
politics under the auspices of the Reform
club. The senator opened with scath-
ing arraignment of the billion-dollar
congress, which issue, if nothing more,
should cause every elector to put the
seal of condemnation upon the policy Of
the Republican party, for the avowed
purpose of that party was to secure
benefits for few at the expense of
all. [Cheers.] The Democratic party

LONDON, Oct. 3l.-The Times pub
fishes long review of American poll
tics. 1t says this country has no rea-
son to be enthusiastic over either candi-
date. Cleveland, while president, dis
tinguished himself by gratuitous in
suit to England, by demanding the re-

son has not been behindhand in the
came method of currying favor with the
omnipotent Irish vote. The appoint
ment as minister to Chile OF Patrick

Egan recently boasted of in public, is
enough to indicate the spirit Of the ad-

The French Forces Again Defeat King
Behanzin's Army.
PARIS, Oct. 3l.-A dispatch from Porto
Novo announces that the French ex-
pedition under Colonel Dodds has again
defeated King Behanzin's army. The
French, after receiving reinforcements
and provisions, at once attacked the

Kotopa and after brilliant engagement
routed the entire Dahomey army, pur-
suing the enemy to within one kilo-

Ex.CHIEF d. w. BUsHYHEAD was
in Vinita last Saturday and talked
freely and Interestingly of matters
connected with the Cherokee gov
ernment. In reference to the Strip
matter the gentleman expressed
himself as of the opinion that the
agreement would ultimately be
ratified in its entirety. He did not
think that Mr.. Jordon could be
of any assistance to any one in get
ting a place on the Strip; that it
would simply be a matter of proof
as to who were entitled to hold
land there under the clause allow
ing 20 persons to hold so acres
each. Mr.. Bushyhead, when
asked, said he believed the in
truders would have to go when the
Strip agreement was ratified, and
gave it as his opinion that to avoid
further complications the Chero-
kee people should allot their lands
us speedily as possible; that it was
absolutely necessary in order to
protect ourselves against intruders
and the monopolists among our
own people.

several interesting speeches by
good speakers, winding up by
speech from Black Dog, the pres
ent candidate for governor who is
splendid specimen Of the Amer
lean Indian. | Judge him to be
about 35 yrs, stands full six feet
two inches. Among other things
he said his heart was pleased TO
see so many of his people taking
an interest in celebrating the
fourth, and he urged them ii
great earnestness To look TO the
education of their children and
prepare them for that greh day
when all Indians would be folded
under the wing of the great Amer
lean eagle. The balance Of the
day was given to general filling
up Of the inner man; roast beef,
bread and coffee was in sufficient
quantities for all, as usual here.
General good feeling and perfect
order prevailed throughout the day.
The agent was present and took a
lively interest in everything,
mingling freely with the people,
who love and respect him and look
upon him as a benelactor, know
ing that he has their interest at
heart by what he has already ac-
complished for their good.
1t is a sad fact that the old In
dians are rapidly passing away; |
there are piles Of stone on hun

large and more thorough bible

ed for each nation to set time and
call together local conventions sim.
liar to the county conventions in
the states. The committee for the
Cherokee nation was Rev. Walter

Rev. II. IL. Goode, of Fort Glib
son.
The question as to change Of
time for the annual territorial con.
vention was discussed and left in
the hands OF the executive com
mittee TO settle, October being con
sidered better time than July
The Hon, z. 4. Walrond, OF
Muskogee, by request, gave a very
clear statement of the question
concerning the sale Of beer in the
Indian Territory, and the follow
ing resolution passed and ordered
sent to Washington:
Resolved, By the Sunday school
association Of Indian Territory in
its sixteenth annual convention
assembled at FIT. Gibson, that we,
as citizens of the United States and
of the Indian Territory claim and
expect the protection of just and
salutary laws; especially do we
urge the necessity and indispensi-
bility of the laws which were in
tended to protect the people Of
Indian Territory from the business
of selling intoxicating liquors; we
respectfully invoke the attention
of congress to the fact that the
Federal court at Paris, Texas,
against the decision of every other
judge having jurisdiction in Indian
Territory, by decision on a tech
nicality, annulling the plain intent
Of the law, has literally flooded
the Indian Territory with beer;
that one town of 800 population is
consuming car load of beer daily
at the cost of 25 cents per quart
bottle; that every town in Indian
Territory, with the exception Of
less than a dozen, have suspended
local prohibition and are licensing
the traffic, and the whole territory
outside the towns limits is unpro-
tected. We respectfully urge upon
the administration that it exercise
its powers to prevent licensing,
and upon congress to supplement
our legislation so that the evident
intent of our laws may not be de-
feated by mere technicalities.

The recent cutting of wire fences
affords one Of the most incontro-
vertable arguments in favor of al
lotment of lands in this nation yet
brought to the notice of the public.
II shows the utter absurdity of
holding lands in common and the
unavoidable conflict Of interests.
No remedy will ever be satisfac-
tory other than to give each in
dividual his or her pro rata share.
Each citizen should know where
his lines are and be confined
strictly thereto.

THERE seems to be a growing
sentiment among the people that
Chief Harris should call a special
session of council for the purpose
of regulating our jury system, for
as it now stands we are in a
measure powerless to punish
crime. Another matter that needs
attention is the wire fence. We
need law making an all wire
fence legal, especially for the prai.
rie districts where timber cannot
be had.

Mr.. JOHN JoRDoN has got him
self into very unenviable posi-
ton in his attempt to say who
shall settle upon the Strip in the
event of the ratification of the
agreement. Jordon presents the
ludicrous spectacle of one who has

chaw" and every attempt he
makes at an explanation the worse
it appears.

WHEN the intruders are removed
il will be in carrying out the pro-

But if they return we will have
no more "Stripsn to give the

further trouble the country had
better be allotted at once.

THE CHIEFTAIN again calls at
tention to the unjust system Of tax
alton in vogue IN this nation. The
invested funds belong to the whole
people and the interest therefrom
runs the government. Therefore
all pay the same amount of tax,
regardless OF their financial con-
dition.

Fourth of July Celebration.
July g. 1898
EDITOR OF THE CHIEFTAIN:-A
two weeks stay on this reserra-
tion has produced a familiarity with
the country and the condition Of
the people generally. Through the
humane efforts of their present
sases: agent, /. Miles Miles, end end .heis.
ent acting assistant chief, T. l..
Rogers, the Osages are fast being
pushed forward to civilization. A
few days ago l witnessed the clos
ing exercises of their schools and
say that the majority of the pupils
would compare favorably with the
youth Of any of their neighbor
nations, and from the appearance
of the three large school buildings
in the agency, to say nothing of
the three or four large mission
schools scattered over the reserva-
ton, one would think that this
country would soon become an ed
ucational center. The Indians are
rapidly throwing aside their an
cient customs and adopting civil
lied habits, They are settling in
the rich valleys and along the
water courses, and no. a few of
them own fine farms with neat
cottages tastefully furnished.
They, as people, are very fond
of stock-horses more so then cat
tle-of which they raise great
many. In spite of all the civiliz-
ing influences being brought to
bear upon them they still occasion
ally indulge in the old custom of
smoking horses" had the
pleasure of witnessing a ceremony |
Of that kind a few days ago; so or /
10 ponies, half as many beeves
and a large number of blankets /
and other goods were given by the
lalf-breeds to the Big Hills.
The national Usage convention
inished its labors last Friday,
after a stormy session of ten days;
he result is, Black Dog for prin-
'ipal chief or governor, the half
oreeds having made a complete
allure in trying to get in their

The fourth of July was celebrat-
ID at Pawhuska. Some four or
i've hundred people met here to
ally around the stars and stripes,
s well as to rally around the car
asses Of three or four beeves
which were being roasted. We

nd plaintiye prayer by the chap
ain for the occasion there came

tand were a dozen beautiful little
alf-breed girls who sang, "Rally
Round the Flag" greatly to their
redit and also to that of the ma
