The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-06-22

tribute to the genius and versatility
of the grand sachem who had laid
awake at night planning TO make this
carnival an event the like Of which had
never before been known in the an
nails of the Tuscarora. Governor West
he said, was the great big Indian of
this territory and he had gone to
WaShingto to pay his respects to the
great father there and for that reason
was absent from this council.
Although the TuScarora was a DEM
ocrat both sides would be heard during
this carnival, and the big men of the
party who believed that cheap clothes
made cheap men would have a fair
and impartial hearing.
Then the young orator Sycamore
FISHER S. HARRIS.
made the long talk Of the tribe. The
talk was brilliant in every sense of the
word. Harris is a genius and he showed
1t in his talk which was poetical, full
of sparkling gems of thought practical
AMI humorous blended in proper pro-
portions and literally charmed the au-
dience. He said the discipline of the
TuScarora was so stern and unre-
lenting that when a member of the
tribe was ordered by the chief to make
big talk he had either to come or be
burned at the stake. That was why
he had come to talk now and he was
thankful that on the present occasion
the grand sachem couldn't say as he
did in the council house, "Sit down or
I'll throw you OUT because he was
already out. He wasn't going to talk
statistics, he would not know a statis-
tic if he met it in the street, couldn't
distinguish between a statistic and a
drunken Tuscarora. This encampment
was time honored custom with the
tribe. They met around the council
fires to bury their animosities and lis
ten to the voices of the old men and
the wise men. The tomahawk was
buried and there was peace between
the ObeJibWays and the Dakotas. In
these days we had traditions about the
ancient Tuscarora tribe, in these tradi-
tons all the ignoble and bad traits
were buried with the bones of the an
clent tribe and only the good survived
and 1t was on these good and noble
principles the Tuscarora society of to-
day was founded. 1t was Democratic
and the Democratic party had its home
IN the heart of the people.
L ne grand Sachem has brought about
united Democratic party in Utah and
mad saved more hearts to that party
and brought an offering of adj the
members of the TuScarora society and
placed it at the fest of the Democracy
without desire for or hope of reward
beyond the privilege of fighting in the
cause OF Democracy. The Democratic
party is greater than any one man or,
any faction or any clique. Every man
who loved his home and his country.
who believes that his house is his cas-
tie, has the true spirit of Democracy.
Amid ringing cheers and the wild veil
of the tribe Utah, Utah, Tuscarpqa, +"
the young orator took his seat but was
not allowed to remain There for (he was
sliced by THE braves and carried off
on the shoulders Of the stalwarts amid
the cheers and yells of approval of the
tribe. Utah, Utah, Tuscarora!7
