Mr.. j. p Blaize, an extensive real estate
dealer in this city, narrowly escaped one OF
the severest attacks of pneumonia while in
the northern part of the State during the
recent blizzard. Mr.. Blaize had occasion to
drive several miles during the storm, and
was so thoroughly chilled that he was un-
able TO get warm, and inside of an hour
after his return he was threatened with
severe case Of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr.. Blaize sent to the nearest drugstore and
got bottle of Chamberlain Cough Rene
dv, of which he had often heard, and took
q number of large doses. He says the effect
was wonderful, and that in short time he
was breathing quite easily. He kept on
taking the medicine, and the next day was
able to come to Des Moines. Mr.. Biaize re-
cards his cure as simply wonderful, and says
he will never travel again without bottle

4 large force Of men is employed in
the work Of laying the double track of
the street railway and good progress is
being made. 1t is generally believed
that the idea of running the tracks aud
roadway under the B. 81 o.. tracks at
the upper crossing is impracticable, as
it would require a great deal Of grad
ing, especially in view of the fact that
there would have TO be sufficient room
to allow the pole trolleys to pass under.
1t is now believed that the rumored
new mill of the Wheeling Iron and Steel
Company is an assured fact. 1t is
known that the company has such
plans in contemplation, and unless

To tAs Editor OftAs Register
Gilmer rises TO second the nomination
of Hon. r. +. Kidd for District Attor-
pev for West Virginia. The treatment
that the interior counties Of this State
have received at the hands OF the Demo-
cratic party To the past would not war
rant ms i'm being the first to make the
nomination, for heretofore to present
candidate from this section would In
sure his being turned down by the con-
ventiOn,
While your correspondent from
Clsrksburs has fairly stated the case,
vet we believe that he fails to realize
the Indignation of the people at thelr
unfair treatment in the past.
In the State Convention OF 1890 an
orator said: You lock TO our selection
for your majorities, give US our man and
we will elect him" We have said this
I'm the past, yet you have failed to give
rs recognition Notwithstanding we
have increased our maJoritles-
We believe it has beeu con-
clusively proven through the
columns of the REGISTER in former
communication that the District Attor-
ney for West Virginia must come from
from the First Congressional district,
and coming from the First Congress
siOnal district, he must come from the
interior, and coming from the interior,
Hon. r. +. Kidd must be the man, be-
cause the success Of the party in the
interior counties has been due more to
his efforts than TO the efforts Of any
other man. Although urged by friends
TO withdraw himself from the active
work of a political canvass, inasmuch as
the party in convention had
twice failed TO recognize him,
his reply has always BEEN:
The principles Of Democracy are sa-
cred TO me, and though the conventions
may turn me down, they cannot Kill
my Democracy"
I'm the campaign Of '92, notwithsta nd
ing the fact that Mr.. Kidd had sec
ond time been ignored by the conven-
ton of his party, he was found IN the
front of battle leading the Democratic
hosts on TO victory. Mr.. Kidd stands
without a peer In the Democratic party
of this State.
Inspired by the words and example
of their leader Gilmer and surrounding
counties have again largely increased
their Democratic majOrities. If we fail
TO get recognition in this our third ap-
peal, certainly other sections Of this
State will not, dare not, presume that
We will bear the brunt Of battle and al
low them to reap the rewards Of victory.

REQUESTS OF THE PEOPLE,
AS Set Forth in Mass Conven-
tion, Oct. 9th.
ylsrrA.Lr Oct 9Th. lsa2

vINIrA, 1T, Oct 9Th, 1892
At a mass convention of citizens
of the Cherokee nation without re-
gard to party, held in the town of
Vinita, on the above date, the fol-
lowing resolutions were unani-
mously passed:
1st. That Council be asked to
change our present system of taxa
ton to a tax based upon the actual
assessed value of the property of
each citizen.
End. That Council be asked to
pass an act requesting the United
States to pay the proceeds of the
sale of the Strip lands, in case the
agreement is ratified, direct to
those legally entitled to receive
the same, per capita.
3rd. That we request Council
to pass an act asking a survey of
our land east of ninety six degrees
into sections, in accordance with
the Goth Article of the treaty Of
1866.
4th. That we believe the time
has arrived when the Cherokee
nation should demand delegate
on the floor of Congress, as pro-
vided for in the 7th Article OF the
treaty of 1885, instead of the ex-
pensive delegations which we now
maintain.
5th. That Council be asked to
pass a law that will prevent mon
opoly of the lands of the Cherokee
nation.
9th. That we ask Council to
repeal the present wire fence law,
and give us instead a law making
posts and wire fences lawful.
7th. And further be it resolved,
that citizens throughout the Chero-
kee nation be invited to take SINH
lar action, laying before Council
their wants.

ments of much good to the Chero-
kee people. We do not mean that
those resolutions within them
selves point out or even suggest
the remedy for all the existing
evils which the people of this
country are heir to. but rather 1t is
a popular movement of those not in
office and not of any political
party in particular. 1t should be
gladly taken up all over the coun-
try; that is, the people Of every
district at least should make known
their wants to their representa-
tives in council, A large majority
of those present at this meeting
were solid and influential citizens,
representative Of several districts
and all political parties. The res
olutions were taken up singly and
passed with practical unanimity,
but not without thorough discus
sion. There is no doubt but that
members of council will hail with
delight every movement of this
kind, for the average member is
always desirous of pleasing his
and when those con-
stituents make known their wants
it is much easier to shape legisla-
tion according to their wishes.
The ball should be kept rolling
and the citizens of every neighbor-
hood should meet and at least ex-
press their views in regard to
needed legislation. Let it not be
understood that we insist that the
resolutions passed at the Vinita
meeting are the only ones to be en-
dorsed, but that others should be
sent up in accordance with the
views of those who send them. Ii
is certainly proper and right for
lhe people to speak out on these
questions.

SOME SOUND SUGGESTIONS.
Apportionment Favored Rather
Than Allotment.

w. H. Davis, Menard, L. t.,
writes the Advocate as follows:
Allotment and apportionment
are classed in the dictionary as
synonymous words, but in dis
cussing the division of our lands
| notice they are used by many in
telligent persons of our nation,
with some latitude of signification.
According to their view, allotment
signifies the giving of each citizen
his pro rata share absolutely,
with fee simple title tothe same,
which enables him to transfer it to
any one, citizen or citizen; (;
but their idea ofapportionment, is
TO assign each citizen his proper
tional share, which he can hold
regardless of improvements, or
residence thereon, as his exclu-
sive, indefeasible property, but
which is rendered by law. inalien-
able to non-citizens. Under this
definition, and in this sense, | am
in favor of dpportionment, and op-
posed to allotment. The benefits
to be derived from apportionment
are numerous. Briefly stated,
however. it would close the doors
upon monopoly and usufruct; it
would settle the question of citi-
zenship; it would protect in their
Just rights, widows, minors, or
phans and the infirm Of every
class; it would allay those appre-
tensions that we now entertain.
that any Of our posterity would be
rendered landless, by the avaric-
iousness of their brethren; in short,
tie era of doubt and mistrust
would be succeeded by an era Of
certainty and stability. Aside
from the fact that extreme danger
always justifies extreme measures,
let us see if our National Council
has not, from time to time, set a
precedent for apportionment. Our
constitution declares that, "the
lands of the Cherokee Nation shall
remain common property" yet, by
various acts Of Council, certain
tracts, lown lots, have been separ-
ated from the Public Domain, and
conUevsd for a consideration to in
dividual citizens, giving them a
quasi title to the same, but still,
the owner possesses no power or
right to dispose Of these lots to
non-citizens. Now, | wish to sub
nit the inquiry, if this was not sp-
