THE CAUSES OF DELAY.

1t is now practically settled that
the Strip agreement will not be
ratified by the present congress.
The cause ofthe refusal Of congress
to act upon the matter is not to be
found in the fact that it is bad
trade FOR the Cherokees, but prob
ably the most potent reason is the
disposition Of congress to retreneh
in the matter Of Indian appropria-
tions, together with the non -polit-
ical character Of the measure. The
United States has, according to the
provisions Of the agreement, until
March A, 1898, to accept or reject
the work of the commissioners.
Nothing could be further from the
truth than the claim set up by
some Of the newspapers Of the
country that lobbyists and cattle.
men, who are interested in this
years grass, are the cause Of the
delay. There are also other things
that may cause a postponement of
action in the matter. There has
been legislation proposed and bills
already introduced in congress that
would render the ratification Of
this deal useless. A confirmation
by the higher courts Of the decision
Of Judges Green and Seay, or the
passage of the Harvey bill, would
end the whole matter and render
further legislation unnecessary so
far as the opening of the outlet is
concerned.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF
GRANNY WARD.
A Noted Woman Among the Cher
okees who Died in 1890.

We so often hear it said, "I'm
the Granny Ward stock" or, -
belong to the Granny Ward fam
ily." Below is a short biography
Of Granny Ward.
Granny Ward died about 1920
She was said to be by those best
informed, 1l5 year old, and must
have been born in 1905. She was
a full blood Cherokee and could
not speak a word of English In
a battle between the Cherokee and
whites, Granny Ward, who was
woman of great influence and
strength of character, took white
woman prisoner and kept her from
being killed. She, the. prisoner,
afterwards became the great grand.
mother of Mark Bean and Others
Of our citizens. She kept this
woman about two years and from
her learned and taught the art to
the Cherokees, Of using and max
ing butter, and many other useful
things which Granny Ward trans
mitted to her descendants who were
by far the largest connection in
the Cherokee nation. Granny
Ward had only three children by |
her first husband, and by the man
whose name she bore (Jack Ward) |
she had no children. The names
of her three children were Five.
killer, Katie and Nancy It was
from Katie Harlan, Granny Wards
daughter, that most of the descen
dants came. Katie first married |
Candy, by whom she had one son;
then she married John Walker. |
the ancestor of our Walkers, Tay-
lors and a host Of others. She
then married Ellis Harlan and by |
him had eight children. Nancy, |
the oldest, married Caleb Starr.
grandfather of Watt and Caleb
Starr. George Harlan was the
grandfather of jim and Oce Har-
Ian; zeke Harlan, grandfather of
Alb. Harlan. Sallie married Jacob
West, grandfather of Jim Marcum
Then came Ruth who married
Phillips, and Betsy who married
Peter Hilbebrand. Ellis and Aky
died before marrying. All were
married to white men. Fivekiller
had no children, was drinking
man IN which a good many Of his
relatives were very much like him.
Nanny, Granny Wards other
daughter, married Gen. Martin,
father Of Major Jim Martin and
Nancy Hildebrand. Rachel, her
other daughter was Hughes.
Gen. Martin was a white man Of
good education-quite a prominent
man among the people of his day
Granny Ward lived on the Ocowe
river in Tennessee and was well
of; she traded her white prisoner,
mentioned above, for a negro
woman. She always attended the
councils Of her people and it is
said after she became too old to
attend in person, she always sent
her walking cane to represent her.
Granny Ward always kept a nice
place in her own yard especially
for the Cherokee "green corn
dance and was said to be the
best house keeper in the whole
country. Everything was kept as
clean as soap and water could
make it.

EDITOR INDIAN CHIEFTAIN:- Last
night Sunday at the w. c T. u.
meeting held in the Methodist
church at this place, Mr. Sanders
was put down to make a speech in
Cherokee. When called upon. he
remarked after looking carefully
over the audience that everyone
in the house could understand En-
glish well and it would be useless
to talk in Cherokee. The house,
a large brick building, was filled
to oyerhowing, and nine tenths
were Indians by blood and from
all portions Of the Cherokee ma
ton.

our manhood.

country asking them to call the
Strip agreement by some other
name then the strip steal" Mr..
Bou dinot has made a gallant fight
to secure the ratification Of the
agreement BY congress, but the
pro spect at present is that he has
failed. Meanwhile, the situation
ast as 4 b lone one has sisa.ss narrowed down 10 the
con clusion by the masses that the
Cherokee people know what they
want and know that they do not
want the fifth article Of the Strip
agreement, whereby seventy in
dividuals are the recipients Of
special privileges, and the evi-
dences Of a large sized job in the
whole transaction are so palpable
that the whole country understands
the matter thoroughly.

In regard to the opening Of the
Cherokee Strip to settlement. SEN
ator Perkins has this to say: at
is very doubtful if the Cherokee
S "trip is opened 20 settlement this
session. The spirit Of so-called
eco nomy which controls the lower
h ouse of congress leads to the be-
lief that no appropriation can be
o btained to carry out the provi-
sions of the treaty" Considering
that the senator himselfis strongly
in favor Of opening that country,
as be says in the same cCmmuni-
cation, and viii do all that he can
to that end. the prospect looks
doubly unfavorable.

The Size of Beehiyes,

Opinions differ, though it is very gen.
orally agreed that before clover harvest
it is desirable to have plenty of room for
the queen to lay all she can so there may
be strong force for the main harvest,
and there are queens that need all of the
ten frames. But when the time Of main
storing begins there are many of our
best beekeepers who want the brood nest
contracted to good deal smaller space.
They say that ten frames are more than
needed for brood nest, and so large
space merely gives room for the bees
to store there the nice, white honey that
ought to go into the surplus apartment.
DR.. Miller, to whom the foregoing
theory seems reasonable, says in The
National Stockman: Il practiced con-
traction to a radical extent, reducing the
brood chamber from ten Langstroth
frames down to eight, six, five and less.
am obliged to say that could not tell
for certain whether | gained anything
by such contraction. think got just
as large crops with ten frames in the
brood chamber, but then there are so
many things to be considered, the differ
ent seasons among others, that it is hard
to be certain. Try it yourself. By
means of a division board you can con
tract down to any number of frames
you choose, and use the same supers
above. AT present | use eight frames
all the year around, but | do not know
whether it is best"

When young Wellington became aid
de-camp to Lord Westmoreland, the
lord lieutenant Of Ireland, his acquaint-
ance with the usagcs of society was rs
limited as could well be possessed by
any lad who had passed through the
ordeal of public school. Moore, the
poet, who visited Dublin shortly before
me, and who lived in much the same So
ciety as myself, alludes in his journal to
the character for frivolity which young
Wellesley had acquired while member
of the vice regal staff.
An old lady, one of his contemporaries,
told me that when any of the Dublin
bellies received an invitation to picnic
they stipulated as condition of its ac-
ceptance that "that mischievous boy,
Arthur Wellesley, should not be of the
party. National Review.
