DISSOLVE THE INDIAN TRIBES

The Indian Territory, with its
quasi autonomy, in the midst Of
of the United States, is an anoma-
ly without precedent or parallel.
The Indian Territory is becoming a
harborage for all the robbers and
murderers in the United States,
and the chosen field of train rob-
berries. 1t is painfully evident that
the Indian governments in that
territory is unequal to to the main
tenance of law and order and the
suppression of lawlessness and
crime. There are at least three
distinct and independent Indian
governments in the Indian Terri
tory,-that Of the Choctaws, that
of the Chickasaws and that Of the
Cherokees, and each OF them is
more jealous of it's rights than ever
South Carolina was Of states
rights in ante bellum times. A
point has been reached in the car
nival of crime in the Indian Terri
tory, which demands active and
energetic measures for the sup
preston OF such crimes on the
part OF the United States. Proba-
bly, the Indian governments are
not to blame,-they are not to be
accused of conniving at these
crimes, they are merely too weak
to suppress them.
The tribal relations and tribal
autonomy must be abolished. The
Scottish clans were really so
many tribes. They were often
hereditary foes and perpetually
a. war. The chief Of clan was
followed blindly by his clan and
he alone determined its politics.
Many Of these clans rebelled in
l7l5 against George, the first
They rebelled again l745. They
were defeated and disarmed after
each OF these rebellions, but they
were restless and defiant, and
ready to take fire at any mo-
ment, that a spark fell among
them. After the rebellion Of 174I
the British government abolished
the clans, opened roads through
their territory, erected forts anC
stationed troops in them to over
awe the clans. These measure
were productive of the most bene
fetal effects. Scotland commenced
to improve in trade and wealth
Law and order were maintained
The power Of the chiefs Of the clan
received its death blow.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

Sherman Register: "The popu-
list congressional committee will
not permit Browder to meet
Bailey on accounts Of "Bailey's
threats" so they say. When pc.
litical canvass becomes bitter and
personal it is time to call a halt,
but the masses are deprived Of
great stacks OF fun.
Cleburne Chronicle: "What is
the matter with the pops in John
son county anyhow? Two years
ago they were keeping up racket
on the streets of Cleburne equal to
coyote wolves. They seemed to
have lost all Of their former enthu-
siasm. They are going to be awful
ly licked, not only in johnson
county, but in the state, but there
is no use in the pops giving up in
despair. They are accustomed to
defeat"
Fort Worth Mail-Telegram: at
is no smirch on mans DemoCra-
cy to scratch a bad man on a
Democratic ticket, and it is all
tomfoolery to whine around that
q man is no Democrat because he
won't swallow all the corruption
that the party leaders or whippers-
in have been guilty Of. Manhood
rises superior to cross-road or
ward politics"
"Senator Hill says the Demo-
cratic party does not propose to
die this year by suicide. The sem
ator may be right, but some Of the
Democratic leaders down here in
Texas who are making Populist
speeches and abusing the Demo-
cratic administration, are giving
the party some powerful deep
stabs."
"Give the Indian Territory a
stateor territorial government and
in twelve months the outlaws who
now administer the affairs of that
God-iorsaken country will be
routed, and civilization will make
rapid strides. The territory is now
the last place of refuge for outlaws
from all the states"
Waco Telephone: "The state OF
Colorado is in great need of politi-
cal salvation and deliverance from
bondage. A nations prayers should
go forth that next Tuesday may
see the defeat and ignominious re-
tirement OF the greatest fool and
most monumental ass OF the cen.

Of that state"
Waco Morning News: "Many

Some months ago the somewhat inter-
esting geological information was re-
ceived that out in the buttes Of Dakota
prospector had unearthed some petri-
fed cattle. Subsequent investigation
and digging by party of scientists dis
covered that thousands and perhaps tens
of thousands of cattle lay buried in the
buttes all in perfect state of preserva-
tion by petrification. The district OF
this remarkable discovery covers sew
eral miles and there is every indication
that vast number of herds of fat cat
tie, heifers, calves and bulls, lie buried
beneath the surface forming, SO to speak.
a stupendous cattle quarry.
This news was interesting enough
from scientific standpoint, but while
the students of such phenomena have
been engaged in following with intense
concern the Investigations of its cause
with aview to learning how these i'm
mense herds became corralled there. and
what calamity overcame them to
bury them in the painless waste of
alkali, professor OF chemistry in the
Muskegow University has been engaged
in scarcely less noteworthy work with
the purpose of discovering a way to turn
this remarkable cattle quarry TO com
mercial value. Ard he has so far sue
ceeded that II is now announced that he
has developed n process by which the
peirified animal may be resolved into S
original fl hsh and of course made fit for
consumption. Steps are already being
taken TO organize stock company to
purchase the tract of territory enclosing
the cattle quarry which, in view of the
wonderful invention Of the Muskegow
professor, may well be regarded as a
vast cold storage house from which the
beef may he taken as wanted, and after
being unpetrifed put on the market or
sold IN it's petrified state and unpetrified
as needed FOR use.

opened up need be no more than referred
To- The professor states that the mech
anism OF his unpetrifying process is sim
p'e, inexpensive and portable. 1t may
be secured by the poorest families and
there Is room in any housewives pantry
to stow it away where it may be
ready for use at any time. The
householder may thus go to market and
order couple of pounds of petrified
oeefsteak, send it home, have it unpetri-
Ned right at the house, and served for
dinner, rich and juicy 15 minutes
after. The cattle in the quarry
being a gift of nature and there
being no cost of maintenance the petri-
fed beef, if it can be quarried economi-
cally, may be sold to the consumer at a
price which win, so long as it lasts,
drive the ordinary Chicago cold storage
beef out OF the market
The discovery of the cattle quarry and
the process of reclaiming the stony
steaks offer an obvious advantage TO
sea-faring men. Ships may now lay in
supply of the petrified product, enough
to last for voyage around the world,
II need be, aud with one of the little
machines aboard, break off choice cuts
from time to time as wanted and thus
fresh meat may be enjoyed daily. A
solution, too, of one Of the chief problems
OF arctic or tropical exploration is also
offered, while with armies, sportsmen,
and travellers generally the petrifed
cuts will soon replace the canned goods
now SO much resorted TO. In
cidentally 1t may be remarked
that that favorite dish of the epicure,
Clipped beef, will have a new and
literal meaning, for with sizable piece
of the cattle rock in the larder, the |
housewife, after little practice with |
hammer and chisel, may chip off all the
beef she wants. For the lux
urious who can afford to be |
wasteful, the pieces of cat
tie may, before being unpetrified, be
carved into various artistic forms, bits
OF statuary, Venus or Lion of |
Lucerne, bust of the hostess or other
design, and thus cooked aud served it |
will contribute vastly to the elegance
and beauty of the banquet board.
The unpetrifying machine itself. too,
will doubtless be found available in con-
nection with the ordinary boarding
house steak now in common use.

THE GOLD RESERVE AGAIN.

When THE News predicted two weeks
ago that the expectation of gold, while
not in itself a serious matter ordinarily
at this season of the year, was likely,
under the present circumstances. to form
a very embarrassing feature of the finan-
cial situation, it stood well nigh alone
in its diagnosis of the case. But today
with the gold reserve cut down to within
$4,000 OF its limit, and with further
expectations already on the docket,
the prediction is becoming verified
rapidly, and another bond issue is again
among The possibilities of the near
future TO ..restore' the gold reserve to
its limit. The Journal, which two weeks
ago saw no danger in the continued gold
exports, now says: while there is no
need of Apprehension on that score it must
be remembered that the treasury's gold
now constitutes nearly the whole of the
cash balance and that IL revenues do
not increase before long there must DO
recourse to another bond issue. The de.
STABILITY of prompt action on the tariff
bill is thus evident. The question has,
indeed, now become less one of reform
ing the tariff than one of providing Il Q
Government with needed revenue"
As The Journals great leader, Mr..
Cleveland, is on hand with his bond
remedy and as long as bonds can be sold
and the proceeds used to defray the
running expenses of Government con-
trary to law, The Journals composure is
easily to be understood, but the rest of
the country must view with apprehen-
sion the present condition of affairs.
The recourse to bond issue would be
perhaps a proper method of refilling the
pubic purse under some circumstances.

Of the nation to the extent of many mil
lioLs simply because the party in control

the raising of revenue for government

The furore that has attended the pro.
gress of the various "arinies" which
sprang into existence upon the hayAlding
OF the Coxey plan to the world has be-
clouded or'hidden from general public
view the tremendous industrial war
that is going on within the United
States owing to the strike of the btu
minous coal miners. Both in the num-
Der OF men involved and In the
far-reacbing effects likely to re-
suit. this outbreak is likely to
rank as one Of the most serious
labor troubles in the history of the
country. No single organized strike in
this country, since the great railroad
strike in 1877, has Included n arger num-
Der OF participants than went out last
week.
The trouble grew out of the indiscrim-
mate cutting of wages by operators
which began last summer during the
financial panic. Then the operators had
difficulty in obtaining money on
their paper, and the demand
for coal was almost paralyzed by
the shutting down of mills and fac
tories and rate cutting was begun. This
apparently seemed TO be the only
relief the operators sought and cut
after cut was made until the price be-
came SO pitiful that man could not
starve respectfully on it.
As result ali over the country
action has been taken by the miners,
save in the States of Virginia and Mary
land, where there are about thirty
thousand miners at work, and while
it Is possible that these latter
may defeat the aims of the
rest of the men, still it is more than
probable that the strike, by the suspen-
sion of production, will result in the end
aimed at by the strikers.
With warm weather coming the |
strikers will suffer less from lack of |
employment while the demand coming
as 1t does from manufacturing establish
ments will not be abated, thus using up |
rapidly the stock Oh hand.
Perhaps the operators are as desirous
for this condition of affairs as the strikers
and If so the movement, big as It IL, will
be limited by the stock of
coal now on hand.

THE TARIFF SITUATION.

Although the leaders of the Demo
cracy denied point blank the charge
made by Senator Aldrich that impor-
tant changes were being considered by
the Senate finance committee in the tariff
bill, it was patent to all that Senator
Aldrich spoke by the card and inquiry
was at once turned to ascertain the
direction and scope of the proposed
changes.
When he challenged the Democrats to
take vote on the bill he did so fully as
much to demonstrate this point as TO
show the dissensions existing among
them over the whole question.
The report now comes from Wash
ington that ''very material changes in
the bill have been made" and that the
industries in the states represented by
the so-called conservatives" have been
given projections that was denied them
last week; in many cases these conces-
sions have gone TO the extent IF aban-
donng the lad valorem" duties for
specific duties.
Naturally one of the first questions
that arises to the public mind is, "what
further concessions have been made to
the Sugar Trustr' 1t has become so
much part Of the Democratic program
to consult this big monopoly that when
ever change is heralded in the new
tor fl.a inf =.
change is on sugar and favorable to the
Trust. Nor has this been in any case a
mistaken inference. Every time the
hand of a tinkerer has been raised to
the proposed bill the sugar magnates
have profited thereby.
While the intimation of important
changes is confined in its particulariza-
tion to the lead and sugar schedules it is
manifestly foolish to imagine that
changes in these schedules would be |
sufficient to induce the "conservatiyesn
to vote for the bill while the income
tax is retained, and it is known that the
proposed change by limitation of the
income tax has not reconciled the op-
position TO 1t.
There Is nowhere seen any prospect of |
an early settlement, for although the
of the bill by paragraphs
was begun theoretically on "Wednesday
last not line was changed, nor single
voted on. The agreement for
