thought that this bill will be re-
ported favorably by the COMMITTEES

1T Is oPposFb ny MANY.

The dissatisfaction in regard to
the sale of the Strip is not confined
to the cattlemen as some news
papers in the country would have
the people believe. Since the peo-
pie have had time to discuss and
investigate the matter, after sober,
second thought. it has become an
accepted fact that the fifth article
of said treaty was unfair in its dis
elimination in favor Of only seven
ty people, when all are equally in
terested in the land of the outlet.
1t is more and more apparent tc
all thinking people that every cit
izen of this nation might have
been given the right to take eighty
acres of land on the Strip. The
fact in the matter is that very few
people are satisfied with the con-
ditions of the agreement. Still,
some would favor a ratification of
the sale by congress rather than
run the risk of having the Strip
taken by force and without any
concessions on the part of the
limited States. One fact, however,
that has not escaped the notice of
even the casual observer is that
all those who are clamoring for a
ratification of the trade are invar-
iably those of the "immortal sew
enty" who are to share in the
spoils. 1t is also a well known
fact that seventy people, citizens
of the Cherokee nation, were not
living there at the time the agree
ment was reached, and the impress
sion is fast gaining ground that
it was q scheme and that moses
were counted and enough of the
leaders admitted to insure its ac.
ceptance by the national council.
If the trade is not ratified by con.
gress the people of the Cherokee
nation will know the reason, and
if the Strip is ultimately lost they
will know where to place the blame

TO ooLoNIzE THE STRIP.

The Kansas City Star has in
formation from the southern bord-
er Of Kansas that excitment is run
ming high among the proposed
settlers of the Cherokee Strip, who
have gathered on the line, and at
least one man has entered the for
bidden country and put in crop
Of corn in defiance of federal au-
thority. The paper named says:
"Others may be expected to fol-
low, and it is not improbable that
the concerted invasion set for
March 22nd may be fastened. OF
course the government will send
the military and expel the intrud-
ers, but in view OF the turbulence
and bloodshed that will result
from such a course, the better way
of settling the trouble would seem
to be for the government no longer
to delay action on the treaty with
the Cherokee Indians, and at once
adopt legislation opening the Strip
to settlement. Such action must
come sooner or later, and unless it
be taken now all the armed forces
of the government will not be able
to keep the intruders out of the
strip. 1t is a notorious fact that
| cattlemen still have pasture and
ranch privileges in the Strip, and
less favored tlen, naturally indig-
nant that they are not permitted
to enter, will continue to cause
trouble, and when the new country
shall at last be thrown open there
will be such a rush and contention
that bloodshed will be inevitable. ="

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES.

In accordance with an act of con-
gress approved July 2, 1862, en-
titled Gan act donating public
land to the several states and ter
ritories which may provide col
leges for the benefit Of agriculture
and the mechanical arts" nearly
every state and territory in the
United States has founded such
an institution of learning. Then
again, two years ago, an act was
approved making grants of public
funds for endowment of these
schools, and for the establishment
of experimental stations in con-
nection with each. This is to be
increased at the rate of one thous-
and dollars per year until 1t reach
es $685. 900 per annum. This en-
dowment will insure at least one
good agricultural school in each
state and territory of the union
and is already bringing big result to
agriculture, horticulture and kim
dred pursuits. The bulletins that
are issued regularly from most OF
these colleges indicate that they
are doing their work. These in.
stitutions stand closer to the farm.
er. who is generally considered the
pricipal producer, than any other
branch of book-learning These
experiments in fruit, grain and
vegetable growing, carried on IN
the midst of the farming sections
of the country, cannot but bear
good results. The theoretical, if
not visionary writers, for some oI
the agricultural papers OF the
country do not receive much con
sideration from the average farm
er, and there is a very prevalent
idea among farmers that the man
who farms on paper is not a sue
cess in tie field. But when these

are necessarily watched with some

EXTRACT FROM A WASHING

it may be referred as some suppose
to the court of claims. AT any
rate it will not be hurried through,
even If il is confirmed all around,
especially as it will take such q
large amount of money out of an
already exhausted treasury, anc
more especially since this is a pres

reached in the supreme court Of

VIEWED FROM A DISTANCE.
Extract From a Letter From Rev.
Ward in Pennsylvania.

The following is an extract from a
letter by Rev. II. J. Ward, who
formerly taught at the orphan asy-
lum, to his brother, given as he
has written to him, expressing in
brief his views OF the Cherokee ma.
ton and people, as viewed from ia
distance.
II you remember the tone of the
press while / was with you. you
will see that the public sentiment
has been very much modified in
that short time; while then only
few dared to speak openly of the
sale" and very guardediy ex-
press an opinion iavoring allot-
ment, the first is now a fact SO far
as our people are concerned, and
the other bids fair 10 become a
plank in one or another political
platform. | have one advantage
in watching these things at a dis
tance, and that l. to CLEAN the "out-
side" opinion from press and
platform. OF one thing | am con-
yinced, that il, that the general
reading public very clearly under
derstands the Indian problem as it
effects the five great tribes, and in
particular, the Cherokees. Few
have not an idea of the progress,
but most understand that the
Cherokees are fully able to COM
pete with their white neighbors.
Dut they watch with interest the
management Of their politics. Ia
see how soon internal corruption,
fraud, etc, will compel them to
give up the ship to Uncle Sam
This they virtually do already in
showing their inability to resist the
influx OF the "renter" or 'intrud-
ers." Our national laws on the
subject were all right, but because
they were not strictly enforced
when they should have been, the
camel has come in head, shoulders
aud body, and is now forcing the
miller out-referring to the fable
OF the miller and the camel. The
United States is all right, but the
national council and the chief ex-
ecutive has been too dilatOry, until
now they have lost the prestige
and-cannot regain it. One thing
above all others that will bring
about allotment is the monopoly
of public domain by the few and
the inequality Of taxation, foi
whatever interest or principal il
used to defiay public expenses
from the public funds is direc
poll tax on man, woman and chile
something unheard Of in any
other nation in existence to-dal
q believe). A child, therefore
pays as great tax as the larges
land holder or the greatest cattll
king. A few object lessons il
political economy given to the ma
jority of the people will at one
convince the most skeptical tha
allotment and annexation TO tn
United States are the only RENE
dies. Please tell me in your next
and | hope very soon, whether m
ideas are "orthodox," namely, th
/ sentiment of those WHO see thing
as they are, how they are dliftIn
and what course must be pursue
on the strength Of existing circum
stances.
Now, If | come TO speak Of m
personal desires, would say b
all means let the Cherokee natiO
be a people Of, TO and for then
selves, and their government,

TwEETY years ago a citizen of
the Cherokee nation would have
been entitled TO more than one
thousand acres Of land had a divi-
sion been made then, but now a
"homestead' Of 100 acres could
hardly be had if every one had his
share set apart. And in this con-
nection il may be well TO mention
the fact that land is getting very
scarce in many parts OF the world.
Land is the most valuable prap.
erty that can be owned. All ma.
tions and people are running wild
on the land question. The capi'
