NEIaHBoRHooD NOTES.
Interesting Items Gathered From
All Sources.


A rattlesnake seven feet long
and having ten rattles was killed a
few days since on the Illinois river.
Oil springs, in the vicinity of
Tahlequai,, are drawing a great
many of the residents of that town,
because of their healthgiving prop
critics.
The three condemned murderers
in the national Jail all killed their
victims with a knife. Tomorrow
is the day set for the execution of
Ball Christie and "Whistling" Jim
Williams.
In Goingsnake district John
Corntass9ll, a guard, fired at a
whisky man named George Free
man, the bali passing through the
hand, striking tue mar on the
head from whence it glanced off
without doing injury.
Caldwell Journal: We are in
receipt of a circular, the substance
of which is that Mr.. Swinford, the
agent sent out to locate land offices
in the Cherokee Strip, was induced
to locate them so as to contribute
to the hotels and livery stables of
King6sher and Guthrie in place of
being to the interest Of the Strip
settlers.
National Auditor Mayfield gives
notice that quantity of cancelled
national certificates have been
stolen from his office. They are
stamped on the face in red ink
Registered, S. w. Mayfield, aud
itor Cherokee nation" All per-
sons buying national certificates
are requested to examine same and
see if any erasures have been
made.
sas City Journal says that it is now
settled that there will be land Of
fees located at Woodward, and AL
va, and possibly at Enid and Kill
dare. Just why there should be
two land offices opened in that sec.
tion of the Cherokee strip where
the land is absolutely worthless for
agricultural purposes, is beyond
reasonable comprehension.
Seneca Dispatch: The Huber
Milling company are running their
big mill on full time, night and
day, and buying all the wheat that
comes. The receipts of wheat have
been good, but not up to last year
which was the largest since the
mill started. The wheat market
seems to be bracing up, and with
higher prices big receipts of wheat
may be looked for.

light Of reason and common sense
we can only arrive at one conclus-
ion and that is that this Cherokee
government is and ought to be SIM
ply a government OF the majority.
AT present the Cherokee by blood
is in the majority and will contin-
ne to be indefinitely. And if the
lands were divided equally among
the people and the expenses of
government reduced to a system Of
taxation, it would continue to be a
government of the majority. But
Notwithstanding all this, our con-
ditions are such that il is necessary
to adjust the movements of sur
governmental machinery to our en-
vironment. And here is where a
majority, when not properly guild
ed, may fail of its object. Our way
of holding land and our system of
taxation are at variance with that
of our neighbors in the states
around us. They are contrary to
the established rules of the gen.
eral government of which we are
part and parcel. 1t is generally
conceded that congress has the
power and may at any time arbi-
trarily change our whole system so
as to conform to that Of the Unit
ed States. This universally looked
for change may or may not be sew
eral years in the future; but no
matter how near or how far away
it may be, we will continue to be
in an uneasy and an unsettled con-
dition as long as we are expecting
and looking for the change. And
in view of these facts would it not
be well to guide and direct the will
of the majority in such channels as
would be conducive to the happi-
ness and wellbeing of the whole
community?

Inoreaaa of Ponulation

The increase Of our nations pop
ulation, from various causes, nat.
ural and otherwise, from 1870 to
1880, was almost 80 per cent, the
census, including all classes of cit
izens in 1870, being somewhere be-
tween 5000 and 1900. In 1880
the census, including again all
classes Of citizens, was 1875.
This shows an increase in ten years
something over 5000 or perhaps
$500. From 1880 to 1890 the in.
crease is 6,6O6, putting the last CEN
sus at 26,32l. But 1t may be ac-
cepted that the census, taken with
the view to per capita distribu.
tion of the Strip proceeds, will be
larger, in all probability, by a
thousand or fifteen hundred more.
This will place the present census
close onto 28. 900.
In 1870 no Delawares or Shaw.
nees had been incorporated into
the nation. These two tribes in
1880 numbered each, 672 and 609
respectively, or in the aggregate
1 1,i75, or about cne-fiith Of the in
crease Of population between 1876
and 1880. The four-fifths Of the
increase between these years, to be
accounted for, are attributable "a
natural causes and to the admission
of persons TO citizenship by the
council and the various commits.
sions on citizenship during the first
decade.

Utilizing Our Resources.

No country can hold its own and
remain prosperous unless the
monied men are patriotic and en-
terprising enough to invest their
capital in a way that will keep
money which comes into the coun-
try from going back whence it
came. If the money which comes
to the Cherokee nation annually
could be held here and put in cir.
lation, or even a part of it, money
would always be plentiful through
out the nation. The per capita of
each individual of the nation ought
to be greater than any other coun-
try of the same size in the world,
yet it is less. What money comes
here finds its way back, in q few
weeks, where il came from and the
few dollars which remain are lock-
ed up out of sight for safety. Why
is it that money cannot be held
here? Simply because capital has
never been invested here for that
purpose. The nations natural re-
sources are ample for just such an
investment Of capital, but no one
as yet has had heart large enough
to take the lead in such a grand
-. i-.-,-s .i--i- ---- =.
be too light. The mercantile bust
ness is overdone in this country
to.day-everybody with a little
means wants to stock himself a
store-a very proper thing, but
when all capital is invested in that
way, it is very improper and det-
rimental to. the country, more
especially if the people are made
to pay war prices for goods.
Nearly everything shipped here
from the States ought to be manu-
sactured in this nation Except
whiskey), especially furniture of
all kinds. With factories of vari-
Gus kinds put in operation and the
country's natural resources devel-
oped, many poor man now idle
for want Of work would be at work
at living wages. But as it now is.
many dollar goes from the coun.
try for stuff, even to live on, that
should by all means be raised here,
more so than the manufacture Of
things here shipped from abroad.
We should know by this time
that it is the greatest Of follies to
allow, as we have, our country's
natural resources of wealth to re-
main undeveloped. The time has
come when we, as Cherokees, must
be up and doing and fear no longer
to use what we have yet left US to
our best advantage; il we do not,
our enemies will use il to our dis
advantage Advocate.
You might truthfully add that
the reason capital is not invested
here to a greater degree is because
it does not feel itself secure. Moth
ing is so conservative as capital and
the man who has made ten thous.
and dollars has learned during
the time he has been aooumulating
that sum that it is no trifling task
and is 10th to place it where there
is any considerable element Of un-
certainty.

THE WHITE MANS RIGHTS.

In Judge Landrum's remarks or
the 4th inst. at Gus Darlington s
spring, after giving the rights in
the Cherokee nation of Delawares
Shawnees and freedmen as he un
derstood the treaty of 1866 by au.
thority Of which they were made
citizens of this nation, he said;
"As to the true legal sta us ~ the
intermarried whiteman, 4 an not
prepared to say. In order TO ar
rive at their status, it will be nee
essary to consult legel authorities
which / have not at hand. But
am of the opinion that they have
rights. But TO what extent they
have rights | am not prepared to
prove TO you as | am in case OF
other classes of citizens, Just
spoken of. There are questions to
be considered in connection with
the amendments TO our constitu.
tion, which is the first place where
in we find the white adopted citi.
zen mentioned,not being mentioned
in the treaties at all. Nowhere do
we find him vested with rights OF
citizenship only when we have
given them to him voluntarily.
The propositions | speak of not
being prepared to explain TO you
are, first; All persons born with.
in the jurisdiction and allegiance
of the United States are citizens
thereof Second: That a citi-
zen cannot renounce his allegiance
to the United States without the
permission Of the government,
Third; That they owe an allie
glance to the United States which
is Intrinsic and perpetual, and
which cannot be diyested by any
act OF their own Fourth: THAT
a citizen cannot renounce his allie
glance to the United States and
become an Indian not taxed and
remain within the jurisdiction o.
the United States "

this is getting to be a "white

real Indian has little or nothing t.
