THERE never was a time in the
history of the Cherokee nation
when SO many farms were being
offered for sale. The bulk of these
places though, it should be stated,
are farms held by people who are
lucky enough to own more than
one; it is the overplus that they
are offering. A great many people
have leased a number of farms and
are just now getting possession.
But the reasons for wanting to sell
is generally to be found in the be.
lief that allotment is not very far
in the future.

THERE are few intelligent people
in this country who do not realize
that some sort of a change in the
government of the five tribes is
imperative. And down deep in
the hearts of the masses of the
Indians there is the silent convic-
ton that the United States intends
to put an end to the autonomy of
tribal government. Congress has
decided to do this, and the Dawes
commission have not come out
here to make a failure. The con-
tempt which some people endeavor
to show the commission can't
possibly result in any good to the
cause. The government holds the
key to the situation and has deter
mined to act in conjunction with
the citizens here if they will, but
if not, then congress will wind up
their tribal governments in its own
way. 1t is not at all certain that
the people, some of them at least,
will not get worsted, but it is hard
ly possible that the United States
could go into so small business as
robbing a defenseless people.
There could be no motiye for so do
ing, therefore it is the part of wis
dom to make some sort of an agree.
ment with the Dawes commission
and get every concession possible.

PERJURER TO BE INDICTED

NEW YORK, Sept, 10.-The police invest igating committee resumed it's sittings in part two of superior court today. Central Office Detective Hanlon was the first wit ness sworn. Lawyer Golf at first endeav- ored to prove through witness that the po- lice were ia league with the pawn brok CTS of the city for mutual benefit.
 Detective Hanlon admitted that persons who recovered property from the pawn shops had to pay the brokers the amount of money for which the property had been pledged by the thieves. Hanlon also ad- mitted that he knew this was wrong, as the property could be recovered without any payment, but it was the easiest way he explained, and central office detectives benefited financially in the matter, how ever. Hanlon wore a handsome gold watch, which Gotf examined and found it contained name other than that of Ham, lon. The detective said he bought it at pawnshop. It might have been stolen property he admitted, in answer to ques- tion, but 1t had never struck him until MT. Golf mentioned the matter.
 Mir. Golf caused big laugh when he asked the witness solemnly: ''Have you ever been taken for country guy3' To which the witness answered just as seri- ously: "No. sir." Lawyer Golf then changed the subject and began qdestion- ing the witness regarding the green goods men. Hanlon denied that he represented the police department among these men, who give away thousands of dollars of good money for few hundred, and was then excused.
 After several "steerers, D ssturners, '' etc., in the green goods business had given some minor testimony regarding their trade" William Applegate, who was the intimate friend of 'Jim' McNally, the alleged green goods packer, took the stand. Bis testimony was very important, for he gave tue names of places where the green goods men carried on their nefarious trade, as we'll as the names of men who did the printing of circulars, the names of tel egraph operators who were "hxedo for delivering telegrauns 10 fictitious addresses, and other important details of the bus mess.
 c. J. Rheinschreiber was called and de- clared that he never knew McNally, and grew indignant when asked if he printed circulars for the green goods men. He was then confronted with bills, letters, etc. which proved conclusively that he had done that which he had just denied, whereupon the witness admitted the fact.
 The Lexow committee then put the threat it has made for committing perjury into effect, and directed counsel to bring in an indictment against Rheinsch seiber. He will be indicted tomorrow.
 Applegate was again recalled and testified that he paid money to police captains and policemen, and also central office men. Captain Meakin was one of the men inn plicated by his testimony. The witness had concluded when the time for adjourn ment arrived.

Hiroshima is large town on the inland sea, about 5-0 miles from Tokio. It has hitherto been used as the base of operations for tho movement of troops and supplies to Corea and other points, and the action of the emperor in taking up his residence there is taken to indicate his intention of personally super Intending active operations in the war at point as near the scene of hostililies as is practicable.

A REPUBLICAN,, AND HIs MAJORITY WILL
 BEA LARGE ONE.
 PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. 10.-The biennial election in this state for 8 governor, four representatives in congress, state legisla- ure and co enty officers was held today. The republicans, democrats and prohibi- tionists had full tickets in the field, while the populists have candidates for governor, candidates for congress in the First, Second and Third districts and contested some of the county offices.
 On governor and representatives in con- gress the only question from the opening of the campaign has been as to the size of the republican plurality. Nevertheless the republicans waged a vigorous ana aggres- sive campaign for the purpose of making the plurality as large as possible. Their campaign waG ably managed by Chairman J. H. Manley. who secured an unusually strong array of speakers, headed by the four Maine epresentatiy~SseReed,D Dingley, Miliken and Bouteiie-and swelled at the last minute by Governor Mckinley of Ohio.
 The summaries of returns tonight will be based on the gubernatorlal votes. the can didates being: Republican, Henry B. Cleaves of Portland; democratic, Charles F. Johnson of Waterville; prohib.tlonist, Ira c. Hersey of Houlton; populist, l.. c. Bateman of Searsmont.
 The republicans have expected, on the strength of state canvass, majority ex- ceeding IS GOO for Cleaves, against plural ity of l., GOO two years ago. The demo- crats have conceded Il ,000 or 12 ,000. There have heen hints that the populist voS might overtop the prohibitiouists.

A SMALL VILLAGE

ALMOST ENTIRELY MANIPULATED BY
 FLAMEs--FRANTIC CITIZENS.
 MAssILLoN, O., Sept. 10.-The little vil- lage of Dalton, nine miles north of here was almost totally destroyed by fire early this morning. The fire originated in a stable, and while the direct cause or origin is unknown it is presumed to have been prompted by tramps taking quarters there for the night. The entire loss is estimated at S2G0 .000, the heaviest being the Royal Insurance company. The postoffice and it's entire contents were included In the fire.
 The Cantor, MassiIlon and Orville fire departments were hastily snlnmoned and respon Jed, but their presence was of no avail, as sufficient water could no be pro- cured to do any good.
 The citizens are frantic with grief over the loss of their business blocks and resi- dences, and homeless women and children are seen on every corner crying bitterly.

4r. 5.sG 8L Governor Tillman and the bMilitia Go to Court Over the Right of
 Possession.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 10.-The South Caro- lima dispeDsary rot of last MRrch was dis-' cussed in the United States court here to- day before Judge Golf. The matter came up iu the form of an Injunction suit to pre- vent Governor Tillman or any state officer under him from taking possession of the arms and ccontFement of the Washington Light Infantry company of Charleston, s. c.
 It will be recalled that when Governor Tillman's dispansary raiders passed the line of offensiveness drawn by the citizens oa Darlington and other towns they were attacked, a number of the constabies killed and the rest put to flight.
 The governor then ordered several com panies of militia to proceed to the scene of the uprising and restore order and the gubernatorial authority. Among the com- panies ordered out was the Washington Light Infantry. Its members hatly re- fused to take up arms against their fellow citizens, who, they said, had sir

 The Charleston company is represented by Theodore g. Barker and J K. P. Bryan. Attorney. General Buchanan appeared for d0VefnOf IlilQla0s lu6 ldWytfS Ol buS company claim that the arms were secured by the company by special act of congress and held in undisputed possession for over sixteen years; that the arms were issued for no other purpose of the company; that therefore the seizure of them by the gov- ernor would be illegal, as it would be di- version of the arms to purpose not au- thorized by the act of congress under which they were issued.
 Attorney General Buchanan said of the state's cause: i've believe that the gov ernor has the right to discipline the militia of the state whenever he feels like it, and that the United States has no right to fn- terfere. We are not trying to deprive this company of it's arms for all time, but are do- ing 1t simply to teach them @ lesson. Even if we did want to disband the coInpany and take it's arms away from it, what right has the United States to say that we shall not? If it did we should soon have nice state of affairs. There would be state militia and one belonging to the government. The state supports It's militia and it has the right to do with it as it pleaSeS ''
