SCORED DAWES.
Cherokee Delegates Appear Be-
fore House Committee.
And Reply to the Report of the
Dawes Commission.
THEY DON'T LIKE IT,
Came With Sword in One Hand
and Treaty in the Other.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA joint ses-
sion of the judiciary and territory
committees of the house was held
yesterday to hear the Indian side of
the Maddox judicial bill, comforting
jurisdiction on the federal court of
the Indian territory and divesting the
Fort Smith, Ark, and Paris, Texas,
courts of their territorial jurisdiction.
Delegate Duncan, of the Cherokees,
held the floor forty minutes
with a defense of his people
and pleading for delay. He asserted
that the Dawes commission had
greatly exaggerated the condition of
affairs in his nation and sadly mis-
represented matters, not even treat
ing the Cherol1ees with common cour-
tesy. He said they had come with
sword in one hand and a treaty in the
other; their methods were those of
dictators and bulldozers, not diplo-
mats. They had lent a willing ear to
every boomer and convicted the In
dian governments of many discredita-
BILE acts without a fair investigation
of facts or a disposition to hear the
other side with patience.
He was followed by full blood of
his tribe, who spoke through an in
the honor of the government as re-
CARDS treaty observance, pleading
that his people be allowed to per-
petuate their institutions so long as
grass grows and water runs.
The leading feature of the hearing
was the appearance of Judge Parker,
of the Fort Smith court, in the role of
champion of Indian autonomy. The
judge made ringing speech in which
he declared that the Indians within
his courts jurisdiction are making
satisfactory progress in the arts Of
peace; that they have less crime
among them than the average com
munity in any state of the union; that
they are the victims of wicked horde
of boomers and refugees from justice.
who malign them and persecute them
to the end that they may be ex-
terminated and their property con
fiscated; that they will voluntarily
ask to come into the union if given
time to prepare themselves for the
inevitable change; that there is no
exigeney which demands that the
change be immediate; that, in short,
they should be left alone Judge
Parker remarked that he had no per-
sonal interest in the proposition to-
deprive Fort Smith of this jurisdic-
ton; that the proposed change would
greatly relieve him OF his official bur-
dens; that he was merely standing
for truth and justice.
Chief Harris of the Cherokees was
present, as were many visiting In
dams. The Dawes commission was
not represented. It is likely that
another hearing will be given soon.

order Promulgated oy Archbishop Elder
in Cincinnati.

NC1NNATI, Ohio, Jan 11.-Arch-
bishop Elder has promulgated the
order against odd Fellows, Knights
of Pythias and Sons of Temperance and
accompanied the text of the order
with a statement of reasons why
good Catholics should obey. The fact
that the reasons for the order are
not understo cd, he says, is no excuse
for disobedience any more than it is
for violation of civil law when the
reason for the enac tment is not
understood. He went on, however,
to state some of the reasons in this
case. One was that to belong to these
orders made Catholics more tolerant
of Free Masonry, which had long
been declared inimical to the church.
Another was that in the case of the
Knights of Pythias pagan is selected
to be treated as a saint
