The nanr ef Arkan.a..

LITTLE RoCK. Nov. l4.-Govcrnor Fish back has strong views on the Indian question as 1t relates to tho Indian Ter ritory, in closo proximity to Arkansas. When the legislature of this state meets in January, he will make certain sugges- tions which arc embodied in the following statement mado by him:
 The Indian Territory to tho west of us. offering such safe refuge to crim- inals. has become such a constant monaco to the peace and safety of not only Ar kansas, but of all tho adjacent states and territories. that felt constrained not long since 10 call to the attention of the prcsI- dent of tho United States the advisahility of abolishinG tho unreasonable treaty rc- lations with n people occupying a part of our national domain. and establishing law and order over this nursery of crime and rendezvous of criminals
 since writing that letter tho condi- ton of this territory has grown worso and worse until our Ircat railroad sys- tenn has been forced to abandon all its money business within its limits. and the sheriff of one of tho adjoining counties in this state has written me for n dozen blank applications for acquisitions for criminals who seek safety in this hsrbor of crime,
 If this territory is not part of our national domain. but a foreign nation. our national government Is guilty of tn. excusable usurpation in asserting juris- dictiOn and establishing courts over 1t. If 1t is n part of our national policy. subject to national Jurisdiction, that it's existing condition. beneficial to neither Indian nor white man. but dcmoralizing z to both. should be permitted to continue for n single moment. it is unpardOnablc as we'll as disgracoful-
 ''It cannot, therefore. bc but matter of regret. if not of alarm. to all right thinking citizens of the state of Arkansas that our national government not only still permits tho existing condition of this territory to remain. but that m effort Is being made to fortify against the change so urgently demanded by national duty by establishing n larger number of sal aried officials, whose interests and zeal will combine to continue a state of things which benefits nobody but themselves and their protegcs, and which, if the territory and the state of Arkansas were both inde pendent nations would justify the latter in n declaration of war.
 Whether our state legislature should take any steps or what steps you should take toward protecting our society against this national pssthousc is a mat ter that will address itself to your honor able body. l do not sec that 1t can do anything except protest by memorial or otherwise ''
