News Of Thurman's Death Causes Cen

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA. The news of
the death Of Judge Thurman caused
general sorrow in this city, where
he had many personal acquaintances.
Many of the old sepators remembered
Judge Thurman very well as he served
with them, but he belonged more par.
ticularly to the era of Conkling, Ed
munds, Logan and others who became
famous at a period when many of the
now older members of the senate were
just entering upon their careers. Those
who served with Mr.. Thurman ex.
pressed the highest regard for him and
declared that he was one of the great
men of the country. He was regarded
as one of the best lawyers that ever
served in the senate, and many Demo.
cratic senators said of him that he more

ATLANTA, Ga. Dec. 14.-The Georgia
legislature has opened q way for the
test of the constitntionality Of 10 per
cent tax on state bank notes. The Cal.
vim banking act. passed at 9 former ses-
sion. has been amended so that within
a short time some public spirited citi-
zens of this state will establish bank
and issue notes for the express purpose
of trying the state bank tax issue in the

Many able lawyers. who have given

that this tax is unconstitutional. and
some Of them will volunteer to defend
in the courts an issue of state bank
notes. This case will attract tho at.

Officials Are Not Disturbed.
WASHINGTON, D. O., July 24.-The
Indian Bureau officials are not much
disturbed by the dispatch from Portland,
Oregon, this afternoon, in which it is sta
ted that trouble similar to that with the
Bannocks is likely to occur with the
Warm Spring Reservation Indians in
middle Oregon. The rights Of these In
dians to the fishing privileges granted
them by the treaty with the United
States has recently been confirmed by the
Oregon State Courts in the fullest posi-
BILE manner. According to the treaty,
tie Warm Spring Indians are given eX-
elusive hunting and fishing privileges on
their reservation, and equal privileges
Sin common with white men" on all
lands formerly belonging to them. The
Indian Bureau construed this to mean
that when game law was passed re-
stricting white men in their hunting and
fishing it also applied against the In
dians; but the Oregon courts held that
such law controlled only the whites,
and could not abridge the solemn treaty
rights Of Indians.

manded him for sentence at this term.
His attorneys, Jones and Tillett, of Char

made an attempt to compromise the
case, and are said to have been success
full. 1t is rumored that Crowell's family

success both in the. number of students
and in the character of the work done.
The enrolment of tbs, the second ses-
sion of the Summer School, has been 140
students, which is nearly three times as
many as attended last year. 1t is in

sors in colleges and high schools, 12;
county public school teachers, 10; total,

structors, made a body of earnest seekers
for culture and truth, and the work done

fruit in every section of the State in more
intelligence, more effective teaching.
