TAILEQUAH. j. r., Dec. lO.-A bill
has passed both houses of the Cherokee
council prohibiting the employment by
merchants and trades of this nation of
non-citizens clerks, bookkeepers or
business managers. It has created a
great stir among business men of all
kinds, nearly all of whom have non.
citizens as clerks, and bookkeepers,
without whom they will find it almost
impossible to run their business. This
bill, If it should be signed by the chief

that you are reminded, You can recall
that You have een . dog do it many
times, can't your This habit Is about
all that ID left TO our tame little doggies
OF the days long ago. when they were q
race of wild animals and lived In the
woods. Their beds then were matted

enough grass and properly arrange the
leaves that the dog always trod around

Decision OF Judge Thayer which 10 Of

Dss'sion OF Judge Thsyer which 10 of
Importance.
Sioux FALLS, S. D., De-. I0.-Word
has been received hers that Judge
Thayer OF the circuit court of appeals
at st. Paul has affirmed q vtry import
ant decision made by Judge A.. j. Ed.
gerton of the United States court
here. In 1883 several farmers in
Lincoln county gave four prom
Gsory notes a~ggregating $3.50 to Blair
Bros. in payment for q horse. Blair
Bros. sold the notes to the Second Ma
tional bank OF Aurora. Ills. This bank
sued on the notes but was beaten In
the United States court here. The de-
Tense was that the horse was worthless.
Whether or not evidence in support of
this defense was admissible as against
the plaintiff bank depended upon the
negotiabiiity of the notes. The
defense claimed that the use of the
words with exchange and costs of col
lection" in the notes destroyed their
negotiability to such an extent as 60
allow the defendants to set up the same
defense against the bank as they could
against the makers of the note. The
effect Of the decision is that the use of
the words with exchange and costs
Of collection in a promissory note de-
stroyed it's negotiability to such am ex-
tent as to allow the signers Of a note to
set up the same defense against an i'm
accent holder that he could against the
