INDIANS ARE MUCH ALARMED

Chippewas Fear They viii Have Moth
ing Left When the Commission Quits.
WHITE EARTH, Mimi, Nov, 21.-In-
dians at this a ency have appointed a
large delegation of chiefs to go to Wash
ington for the purpose of asking con
gress to amend the act Of 1889 which
relates to all Chippewa Indians in Min
nesota. They will lie joined by similar
delegations from Red Lake, Leech Lake
and Mile Laos. The Indians, and not
the government, pay for the carrying
toned act, and they are becoming
alarmed lest they have nothing left
from the sale of their lands. The Chip
pewa commission has been operating
almost six years and has accomplished
practically nothing towards alloting
lands and winding up the work.
Twenty-seveu Men at SO "A Day.
The pine land examining corps con-
sists of q men who draw S. a day each.
In two years and a half they have ex-
amined less than one-half of the Red
Lake reservation, and have done moth
ing on the Leech Lake and other reser-
vations. At that rate it will take five
years more to finish the work and under
the present law none of the pine land
can be sold until it is all examined and
appraised. Owing to this enormous ex-
pense, to which there seems no end, the
Indians will ask that the law be amend
ed looking to the disposal of the lands
as soon as examined in 100000 acre
tracts, and will also ask congress TO
abolish the Chippewa commission and
have an allotment agent in its stead, as
they think 4 man can easily do the
work of the whole commission. Chief
White Cloud will lead the delegation.

together sufficient without more to 60 to
the jury as evidence OF tho persons in
sanity at a later period. Query: But,
held, such evidence, without more. is not
sufficient to go TO the jury when insanity
is merely a collateral issue, as where
an attempt is made to impeach the
competency or credibility of a witness,
by proving that he is insane. Dis.
tinction between insanity as a direct
issue and as a collateral issue noted.
When an attempt is thus made to i'm
peach the credibility of a wit
ness, the court may, in
its discretion, refuse to receive
evidence Of insanity of his ancestors
and relatives and evidence of his prior
temporary delusions and alterations,
until some other evidence is first given
of his insanity at the time of the
transactions testified to or at the time
Of trial.
The Defense Has Ten Days.
Now that the supreme court has de-
cided the case, the. attorneys for the
defense have 10 days in which to apply
for a r~eargument, or they may possibly
have longer. They are allowed 10 days
in any event, and occasionally, where
the attorneys in the case state that ther
cannot prepare the papers for the appll-
cation within that time, they are
granted further time, occasionally as
much as 30 days. If the application is
denied the case will be certified back to
the district court, which then regains
its jurisdiction, and the clerk of that
court will again certify the case, with
the evidence, to the governor, who will
issue a mandate to the sheriff of the
county, ordering that the execution
take place upon a date fixed.
Attorney Shumaker called at the Of
fee Of the clerk of the supreme court
and obtained a copy of the decision. He
sad he could not tell whether an appli-
cation for a new trial would be made or
not. 1t would depend upon Mr.. Erwin.
Governor Clough was seen, but re-
piled to questions that there was moth
ing for him to say, as the case had not
reached him. When it did it would be
decided promptly and that was all there
was to il.

italy. If one of them should do as Turkey Is now
doing. But they have right TO 90 so IN the
present ease for another reason, based on inter-
national law Under the treaty OF 1876 the Porte
bound itself to give Armenia good government;
and the great Powers. by the very fact Of their
having saved the Turkish Empire from dlssolu-

cation TO see that the Porte fulfilled lis promise,
even TO the extent Of interfering In ana con-

TURKEY AND THE POWERS.

The Turkish Government. il is announced,
threatens to break off all diplomatic relations
with the great Powers If the latter insist on
sending additional guardshps to the Bosph0rus
Without further confirmation. we can scarcely
believe this TO be true If it is true. II ought 10
mean Just one thing namely, the immediate
sending Of The second guardshps, and whole
fleet of frstclass batie-ships to boot That is
what ii will mean. unless the great Powers are
content to be bullied and insulted, and them
selves to be pillored for the worlds contempt
This is the present situation: The Turkish
Government has deliberately and officially de-
creed that the Armenians shall be cXterminated
or at least so far massacred that those left alive
will not form anything like Il majority Of the
population Of any province or district That de-
cree is being executed, with ferocity for the
like Of which we must 20 back 10 the days Of
Timur LenS. The Powers know this. and have
demanded cessation OF the awful work. The
Turkish Government replies with evaslons and
"bluiing," and goes right on with the slaughter.
Thus far about 10000 Armenlans have been
killed outright, and 100000 are being system.
a,ically driven to death by starvation. And the
Porte tells the Powers to keep their hands off, or
il will he the worse for them
Now we believe that the Powers have perfect
right. on the simple ground If humanity to in
terfcre and to compel the Turkish Government
to quit is dcviliries We believe they would
have the same right to interfere and to coerce
any other Government Germany. or France. Or

wou,d also probably serve all legitimate purposes
ncrfcctly well. In ordinary times few smart
cunboats are just rs effective as biz battle-shps

can 60 into shallow harbors and up rivers, where

a Great show Of fine ships for the sake OF pres
tire IS concerned, that end would be fully AZ
tanned by an annual mobilization Of the fleet
and a short cruise in European waters.
4 third valuable recommendation made by the
Secretary is that the force Of men available lor
naval service should be increased. or the need
Of that there can be no question. PractcalF'
all available men are now in actual service
There Is need OF Il thousand or more enlsted
mon. There Is equal need Of some provision OF
law by which the Government could, In an cner-
cency. at cncc secure the services of other thou-
sands of trained men to fill the ranks on our
rcscrve squadron No doubt plenty of men
would promptly volunteer Probably many or
them would have fair degree OF familiarity
with the duties required Of them. But. says 'le
Secretary the Government would have no a'l-
thority to accept the services OF one or them
Certainly that state Of affairs should be re-
formed at once The system Of naval reserve
organizations should be sanctioned and pro-
NOTED by the Government in all States border
ing on the sea. the lakes and the great rivers,
and II should be made possible for the Govern
n,ent to accept the services of those organza-
tons without delay in case of war. We do not
supposc the Sccretary's desire TO establish an
auocratc inquisition over the Navy will en-
courage men to enter that service, or even to
ioin the naval reserve. In that respect his evil
designs may tend partially to defeat his good
ones. 1t WILL however. be easy for the Congress
to thwart the former and to promote the latter,
