Governor Flower is opposed TO pro
viding State work for the unemployed
where, the allotment Of such work is
prompted by charity rather than by
consideration Of public interest, be
cause, as he says, such work Is paid
for out Of the pockets Of tax. payers,
who include both The rich and the
poor, and the burden falls most heay-
ily on the poor, who cannot shift or
evade it. The Governor shows that he
has heart as well as a head when,
not content with indicating that the
proposed remedy is the wrong one, lie
points out that the true remedy rests
with society, operating through indi-
vidual effort.

Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1893-01-12
ON CONDITIONS ONLY.

A meeting of the citizens of this
nation is called in this city next
Saturday to take action against
the perkins bill" recently intro.
dsced in the United States senate.
The call also indicates a desire to
perp etuate our "Indian auton-
omy."
If autonomy means the protec-
ton of the whole Cherokee people
in their rights, and security in
their landed interests, then let us
have autonomy. But if it means a
continuation of the land-in. com
mon fallacy, kept intact for the
benefit of few cattle barons and
Office holders, then we have had
quite enough of it. If the sacred
rights Of the people are to be ignor.
ed and the government be run
for the benefit of plunderers and
monopolists, then we don't want
autonomy and we would say to oui
mighty prototype, the United
S tates: The Indian problem is
solved so far as we are concerned;
deal with us as you would deal
with any other intelligent commu-
nifty. This croaking about "Indi-
an autonomy" is all sentiment.
We don't want to be attached to
Oklahoma, as a matter of course.
We do not need to be attached TO
anything. Give us the same rights,
nd privileges other communities
have and we ask no more. We
plead for individual rights. This
Bellamic system Of holding things
in common only exposes us the
more to the rapacity of unscrupu-
lous demagogues.

EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH.
"Seo Buntlin" Continues the In
vestigation and Discussion.

Mr.. EDIToR:-With your per-
mission | desire TO continue the
discussion of the south's attitude
in the matter of education.
We are told that from 1900 to
1860 we did nothing for the edu-
cation of the masses. This asser-
ton is not grounded on history,
The good work of educating the
masses commenced long prior TO
1900. The cause of education re-
ceived an impetus in early coloni-
al times. Many of our schools,
colleges, seminaries, and univer-
stiles were founded long before
the reign Of George the third. 1t
was during this period that the
south had the most refined, the
best educated and the most bril-
liant society in the United States.
Our congress presented the grand
est array of brilliant orators and
statesmen that the world ever
saw. In that period we could
boast of Jefferson, a Madison, a
Clay, a Calhoun, a Jackson, a
Benton, Hayne, with our Ran
dolphs and our Pinkneys, the first
Of whom wrote the Declaration Of
Independence while the last gave
to the convention Of 1887 the draft
OF the constitution of the United
States that was finally adopted,
while Clay, a Calhoun, a Ran
dolph, Hayne and a Benton elec-
trifed and swayed the senate
with an eloquence that surpassed
a Demosthenese and a Cicero,
while a Jefferson, a Madison, a
Monroe, and Jackson inaugural
ed policies that made this the
grandest nation on earth, either of
ancient or modern times. II was
southern men and southern meas
ures that made this government
what il is and extended it from
ocean to ocean and from the
frozen lakes of the north to the
palmy shores of the Gulf of Mex
leo. Then do you tell me that the
