IT is remarkable how prone the
Democrats are to do things for which
they have for many years abused the
Republicans. For instance, it is
stated..that the U. S. Ship, Dolphin,
has been dry-docked at the New
York navy yard, in order that she
may be put in thorough order, as she
has been placed at Mr.. Clevelands
personal disposal during the time he
spends at Buzzard's Bay cottage this
summer, We believe it to be perfect
ly right that the President of the
United States should have a govern
ment vessal placed at his disposal
whenever he travels by water. II
adds dignity to his movements in
keeping with the exalted Office he
holds and costs the governmet very
little if anything, as vessel and crew
have to be maintained anyway, bur
the Democrats have as a rule taken,
or pretended to take an opposite view
when Republican president occupi
ed the chair.

THE most important action taken
By the Board of Trustees of the State
University at Knoxville, was resolu-
ton admitting women to the Univers-
ity. A building is temporarily set
apart for their use as headquarters.
1t will contain reception rooms, par
lors, a study hall, ETC., for the accom-
mediation of ladies while they are at
the college during the day. They will
not be allowed to reside on the Uni
versity grounds, except in the fami-
lies of the Faculty, or to board or
lodge in any family in which male
students board or lodge at the same
time. They will be accommodated
in private families approved by the
Faculty. The ladies of Knoxville
have organized an association for the
purpose of raising fund of money
with which to erect permanent
woman's building at the University.
A committee of the Board was APP
pointed to confer with them and aid
them in every way. A movement
was inaugurated with great enthusl-
asm at a meeting held at the Univers-
ity and number of handsome
contributions were received.

ONE of the largest and best equip
ped tin plate mills in the world, pro-
nounced by English judges the equal
of any of the Welsh establishments, is
practically completed in New Castle,
and will be ready to start the second
week in July. The main building is
25oxIIo. In this building will be
four mills and four sets of cold rolls,
with room for two additional mills.
On one side Of the line of rolls are
four double heating furnaces, while
on the other side are three sets of
shears connected to a single shaft
driven by small engine. Four
powerful cranes are almost in line
with the rolls. Beside the rolling
mill is the washhouse, S92 feet wide
by 90 feet wide and "a feet high IN
der the roof which will have twelve
timing stacks with hve-rolling timing
machines and three annealing furn-
aces on the est. Louis" plan. A
seperate building 40 10 feet is pro-
vided for the machine shop, in which
the rolls will be turned and the gener-
al repairing done. A furnace for pile
heating is located just outside the
mill. A railroad will traverse al the
chief departments of the big plant.
The plant will be started with be-
tween 200 and 800 skilled workmen,
with the usual proportion Of unskilled
labor. New Castle (Pa.) Guardian.

BECAUSE two candidates have de
cided that it is to their interests to
have a primary is no reason that the
party should disregard its own inter
ests and follow their wishes. 1t is cur
opinion that a convention would stir
up less hard feeling and be for the
interests of the party. We want uni
ty in our ranks when we come to the
general election and it is hard to
swallow as much bitterness as was
aroused in our last primary and pre-
sent an unbroken front to the enemy.
We are in favor of a convention as
the safest for the party.

ONE Of the cheapest excuses we
have heard for Knox County having
the candidates is the plea that, that
county furnishes the money to carry
on the campaign. 1t is a fact that
Knox County Is the only place where
money is spentoin this district and it
is no more than right that the people
Of that county should furnish it, But
if the outside counties nominate a
man it will not be a Doodle campaign,
for they can elect without the help of
their money.

If State Senator Brown Of "loyal
Blount," should enter the race for
Congress there is reason to believe
that he would make it interesting for
some of the Republican aspirants.
Mr.. Brown is strong Republican
who stands well with his party, and
he has many friends. He made a
creditable record as a Senator. He
probably lives in the wrong county,
however, to entertain Congressional
aspirations. Knoxville Tribune.
Mr.. Brown would indeed make an
excellent candidate for Congress for
there never was a stronger Repubh-
can and no more honest man in pub
lie life. OF course the TINES would
like to see a Blount County man the
successful candidadate and there is no
man that would refuse such an honor,
but the TINES, no doubt, expresses
the sentiment of Mr.. Brown and of
Blount County in saying that we IA
vor any good outside county man.
We believe that Mr.. Brown could
carry this county by a good large
majority over either Of the Knox
County candidates. 1t would be a
pleasure to us and his many friends
to see the honor come his way.
Harmony in the outside counties is
what is most desired.

ed Daniel R, Murphy U. S. District
Attorney for Oregon, in spite of hun
dreds of Democratic protests from
that state, Murphy was chairman OF

WE have no particular fight to
make against Knox County further
than the fact that we wish to see the

EDITOR CHIEFTAIN:-Having read
H. c. Deans letter in last week s
issue and being an adopted citizen
/ am somewhat Interested in his
subject. l will admit that | do not
understand our status in relation
to this government, but think
the time has come when we should
all understand what position we
are in.
/ would like TO hear from some
of our adopted legal talent on this
subject. Some Of our lawmakers
say the reason we never have re-
ceived anything is because we
never have asked for anything. If
we have to bring suit to determine
our rights here / think the time is
at hand. / have some property
here and no heirs except my wife.
Should she die and our rights are
as III. G. Dean would have them, |
would like to know what would
become of il.
AS the United States has given
the Cherokee government exclu-
siye jurisdiction over all of her cit
liens, / hardly think she will
recognize us and allow us TO take
part in the land soon to be opened

lowed a home neither here nor

erable. j. N. HOLLAND,

A MERE ASSERTION.

Some of the intruders seem to
lose sight OF the very important
fact that the supreme court Of the
United States has decided that the
Cherokee nation may say who are,
and who are not, citizens of this
nation. Chleftain.
The CHIEFTAIN is mistaken in
the above, which is a mere asser-
tion. The treaties provide that all
who can prove Cherokee blood are
entitled to citizenship in this ma
ton, which has been shown time
and again in these columns. The
Cherokee authorities have at
tempted to assume this right, but
in every instance where the appli.
cant for citizenship proved Cher
okee blood the rejected claimant
has been sustained by the United
States government, which we think
the CHIEFTAIN will not dispute
Muldrow Register.
With none other than the kind
est regards for the Register, and
the misguided claimants, we must
protest against such misleading
assertions as the above. To say
that the supreme court has never
made the decision referred to is
going a little too far; the Register
knows better. 1t looks very much
as though it wanted to mislead its
readers on this point and make
them believe there is yet hope.
The CHIEFTAIN has among its read
ers a great many of the class
designated as intruders, and in JUS
tice to them, if for no other reason,
we must protest against their being
misled further. Brother, Truth is
one of the grandest words in the
English language, and will always
outstrip falsehood. Tell your peo,
pie the truth, even though it does
hurt. Tell them that the supreme
court Of the United States has de-
cided that the Cherokees may say
who are and who are not her citi
zens, and that in all the debates il
congress on the noted Strip bill
this decision was recognized anc
referred to as governing in this in
truder matter. For the edification
OF the errant Register and the
claimants we subjoin the decision;
(117 U. S. BIZ, Eastern Chero-
KEGS, etc.: "If Indians in that state
North Carolina, or in any othel
state east of the Mississippi, wish
to enjoy the benefits of the common
property of the Cherokee nation
in whatever form it may exist, they
must, as held by the court o.
claims, comply with the constitu.
tion and laws of the Cherokee ma
tion, and be admitted to citizen,
ship as there provided"

HERE is an item from the Kan
sas City Star which might be read
with profit by number of persons
in this nation as well as by many
outside of it:
j. r. Chapman, lately of Fort
Scott, now of Topeka, who left
home and friends to start a daily
fusion newspaper among strangers,
has come up rather suddenly
against the stone wall of human
ingratitude. He has been formally
snubbed by his alleged friends, and
the official printing of Kansas has
been given to his adversary. Mr..
Chapman is a good man, but be
has the old-fashioned idea that a
newspaper is an "organ, f" and that
it should be supported" as such.
No other business on earth is run
on this idea but the newspaper
business; no one would think OF
starting dry goods store in To-
peka with the hope OF getting the
patronage of the state board of
charities; yet it amounts to more
than the state printing does. A
newspaper mans business is to
print the news. II should have
no other interest than the general
welfare of its readers, irrespective
Of partisan associations.

and willing 10 assist him in his ef-
forts Of Advancement, they are
wont to make him believe that cit
liens Of the United States are pi-
rates and robbers. The point that
it is desired to lay special stress
upon in this connection is, that the
destiny Of the FIVE tribes as well as
that Of all other Indians, is so in
terwoven and dovetailed into that
of the United States as to render
them practically inseparable. 1t
is not TO the interest Of the United
States nor any considerable num-
Der of her citizens to crush the In
dian in rights he may justly be en-
titled to. The United States is the
grandest government on the face
of the whole earth, and we are part
Of it. If il should go down in the
whirlpool of revolution, we too,
would certainly sink in the vortex.
lit rises still higher In the scale
of civilization and human achieve
msnt then we too will share its
ggAofy~>fbis Being az fndfsputabIe
fact then, why should the Indian
deny himself his full share of her
general prosperity. The United
States can and does protect her
citizens in any and every part of
the known world. The five tribes
cannot protect hers, at home nor
abroad. Neither is she willing to
place them in a position to be pro-
tected by the United States by
simply accepting statehood and
citizenship to her people.

The Adopted Citizen.

An adopted citizen of this nation
has received the following COM
munication from the commissioner
Of Indian affairs under date ol
April 9th:
SIR;-I am in receipt by depart
ment reference, of your letter OF
April 10, 1898, stating that you
are an adopted citizen of the Cher
okee nation by marriage, and ask
ing TO be informed whether you
have any right to the lands and
moneys of the Cherokee nation,
and If not, whether you would be
allowed TO 60 to the Cherokee out
let and take a claim.
In reply have TO say that the
laws of the Cherokee nation make
provisions for the adoption of per-
sons, not members thereof, who
marry women of the Cherokee,
Delaware or Shawnee blood, mem.
bers Of the nation, into the nation,
with all the rights of citizens.
Your rights in the nation therefore
are determinable under the laws
thereof. If you comply with the
laws OF the nation, relating to in
termarriage, it is the opinion Of
this Office, that you are a citizen
thereof, equal with other citizens
of the nation. Very Resp'y,

PuRPosHLY MIsLED.

One Of the greatest evils the
people Of this territory have to
suffer ib misrepresentation at home
and abroad. There is a DISPOSE
tion in certain quarters to make it
appear 10 the Indian that the
United States and its citizens are
his enemies, implacable and irrec-
oncilable, and are embracing every
opportunity to plunder and dispos-
sesa him. This is illustrated very
forcibly in The proposition Of state
hood for the Indians. Instead Of
the leading men and the press
amongst the tribes showing the In
dians the advantages Of statehood
they are constantly prating about
the beni6cence Of Indian anton
omy. Instead Of inculcatine into
the Indian the true sentiment that
al me world are his friends, ready
