The Iroquois Wsmen.

A gentleman, recently returned from
visit to tho Indians Of the Onondaga reser-
walton In this state, said the other day: II
was surprised to find the women of the
nation held In such high estecm. Ny pre-
conceived notion Of the Indian squaw was
that she is the drudge and slave Of her
lazy, semibarharous master, and that she
Is in no way honored by the males Of hey
race. This is tho case, am told, with
most tribes Of the American red men; Int
it was never so with the nations of the
Iroquois confeieracy. In fact, the women
were held In so high regard by the fro-
quois that they were spoken Of as people
ruled by women.
"This popularity is evidenced in their
life today. 1t is true that there isn't much
work done by any of the Indians, but the
men do most of what is done, the squaw
only being called on to attend to her
household duties. The superiority Of the
squaw to tho buck is shown in the fact
that the chilf1> according to the custom
of the Iroqu -, belong to the family or
nation OF their mother. If a Seneca In
dian marries an Onondaga squaw and
they have children, the latter are Onon-
dagas, and should the father be Of the
family of the Wolf and the mother Of tho
Snipe clan tho children are Snipes. It is
as If John Smith married Mary Jones
and child of the marriage was named
John Jones. Another indication of tho
superiority of the squaw is shown in the
Indian manner of speaking Of man and
q woman. In English they habitually re-
fer to her and him as doing something,
being somewhere or saying something.
Possibly they are more grammatical. in

henderson's Boomerang.

Topeka, Kan, Sept. 3.-John w
Briedenthal, chairman of the POpu-
list State central committee, to-day
gave the following statement in re-
gard to the letter Of Ben S. Henderson
0. Winfield.
"Mr. HendersOn'S letter contains
nothing that has not been hashed and
rehashed for months, except the char
ges against Senators Kelly and House
holder. These gentlemen can answer
for themselves.
MI. Henderson, like all other ac-
cusers OF this administration, furnish
no evidence that would be accepted
in any court Of justice. He alleges
things, and expresses certain beliefs.
but offers no proof. The time is past
in Kansas when this sort of method
will avail anything. Our people de-
mand something more than mere as
sertiOnS. They have learned that but
little reliance can be placed in state.
mentS Of this character, no difference
by whom they are made. A man may
give expression to his views upon any
political question or policy in this
general manner and have same con-
sidered, but when it comes to charges
of misconduct in Office or corporation.
all intelligent, fair-minded people will
demand proof.
"Yes, Henderson is a POpulist. We
have all kinds of men in our party.
Some have peculiar ways. COwley
county produces queer politicians.
Ben Henderson is one Of them. The
letter will cause many people TO In
vestigate these charges and investiga.
tion will develop the facts. | have
no fear OF the result. We court the
fullest investigation Of all these
charges and when the people learn
the extent Of the Misrepresentation
they will not assist the organization

any belief In hereafter they should

Robbed by Loan Companies.

Do you know how Kansas mort
cages and securities were deprecated
when the POpulists won the election?
Probably you think it was the fault
OF eastern capitalists or western un-

Not atall.
The western agents Of the big loan
companies put their heads together
to make haul-and they made it.
They sent terrible stories of repudi.
alton and anarchy to the east, and
scared the capitalists Of the east into
the belief that their western secur.
titles were worthless.

grand rush to dispose Of their hold.

Rev. E. J. Brown, Of Conway? Don't
he know that he is pOking his

breaches republicanism through the
Monitor. These holy horribles can't
get the idea through their cocoanuts
that Mr.. Botkin is personally respOn-
sible for his own views-and that
they themselves are guilty Of rank
partisan politics in fighting him.
OF all the desperate liars Of the re-
publican SANDER association the
Wichita Eagle takes the delirium
tremens. 1t had a ut because the
POpulists monOpOlized the labor day
exercises" Why shouldn't they?
The only labor party is the Populist
party. The Eagle had cholera NOR
bus because the laborers got tired Of
listening 10 the platitudinous bore
Hallowell, and then says the republi-
cans listened respectfully TO Simpson.
Ofcourse they did. Simpson was teach
ing them something, while Halo
well only tried to pat them on the
back and make them believe they
already knew enough. Besides there
were very few republicans in the
audience. Labor meetings nowadays
are overwhelmingly PoIulist.

DYNAMITE GREER.
The Kind Of Men Who Take Republican Cam
paign Stories.


paign Stories.
Dynamite Greer and his yellow dog,
WintOn, are pretty pair Of puppies
to lead the howl Of kicked republican
ours in Kansas. WintOn is a common
drunkard, without the shadow Of
truth or decency, and Greer is con-
sidered little more respectable, be-
cause he is position to hire WintOn
to do his dirty work, and shirk the
responsibility. Greer's pride must be
great in that he can't bring up his
own children outside Of a reform
school. His pride must be still great
er in shielding brother who isguilty
of rape, double murder, and was i'm
prisoned for his connection with the
Kansas City SundGySun. Ed Greer's
employees all fear bin as they would
tyrant, and he uses them as tools
for any meanness he may have in
hand. Blackmail is the principal
support of his paper at Winfield.
Poor Jack HenthOrne, now dead,
was driven to ruin by Ed Greer. He
it was, who, in the hands of Ed
Greer, devised the notorious COffey-
vile dynamite articles. Jack was a
good writer, a kind-hearted, whole
SOuled newspaper man, and before he
entered the employ of Greer, was
making the town entirely too hot for
the Courier gang. But Jack, being a
somewhat erratic genius, lacked the
will power to sustain his conscience,
and so fell under the wileS and was
employed by his worst enemy to edit
the Courier, so that he might not
further expose the william. He be-
came helpless, desperate, took to
drinking, using opium, and with
senses drugged, performed the bid
ding OF Ed Greer without question.
Our readers will remember the
graveyard horror" sent out from
Fredonia two years ago. That was
written by Jack HenthOrne, under
orders of Ed Greer. Jack was sup
posed to have gone to Missouri on a
visit, and to avoid suspicion of the
COurier'S connection with the out
rage, he sent his story out to an Ar
kansas City paper first, and the
Courier copied it next day. The story
was copied throughout the country
under blood and thunder lines, and
with slperlative holy horror adj jective
editOrials-but people considered the
source Ed Greer, and so Mr.. Hudson
was elected in spite Of the horrible
charge of burying his wife in hog
lot, where SOws and pigs wallOwed in
the dust of human flesh, blood and
bones. The story was simply an in
famous campaign lie, and the Greer
gang laughed in fendish glee at the
clevernesS of the fake.
Jack was used to originate the Pill
cher scandals in the first place, and
when Ed Greer, and his yellow dog,
WlntOD, found themselves party to a
suit for damages, HenthOrne unfOr-
tunately died and left them a loop
hole Of escape. They both swore that
HenthOrne wrote the articles and
that they were out Of town, and
would never have allowed the publ
cation had they been at home, etc.
Upon this statement the county at
tOrney had the suit dismissed. They
knew Jack HenthOrne, they always
dictated his policy, and he consulted
them upon all blackmailing schemes.
They knew how to evade the law
but justice will overtake them some
day, then they will be imprisoned or
hanged as they certainly deserve.
