Duluth, Mimi, July 15.-[Special] AT
a largely attended session of the Prot

cided unanimously that every one pres

TRUE AMERICANISM.
EX-Minister Smith Addresses q
Home Market Club,

Home Market Club.
The Home Market Club had its annual
banquet at Music Hall, Boston, last even
ing. H. Clay Evans of Tennessee, Charles
Emory Smith of Philadelphia, ex-minister
to Russia and editor Of the Philadelphia
Press, and Warner Miller of New York
made the principal speeches.
There were also at the presidents table
Congressman Walker, Morse, Draper, Bar
rett and Simpkns, and Cows. Cleaves of
Maine, Woodbury. of Vermont and Busiel of
New Hampshire.
Gov. Greenhalge was unable to be pres
ent, but sent a letter of regret.
American wages for American workmen
and protection to the American market was
the keynote of the remarks, and every
mention Of Thomas B. Reed or William Nc
Kinley called forth great applause.
Mr.. Smith said in the course of his re-
marks:
brotherhood of American republics, and we
accept the duties the rights and the obi
cations which go with recognized and UNI
disputed primacy. We shall not lower our
flag where II is peacefully and rightfully
placed; we shall not look with indifference
upon the outrage of any Independent na-
ton among our neighbors by any European
assailant; we shall give our sympa HES TO
oppressed people who are struggling for
freedom, and We shall have friendly con-
sideration for those who, in the evolution
of the future, shall see their best happiness
and prosperity under our aegis. We shall
hold no truculent attitude and carry no
chip on our shoulder, but we shall do all
that our national dignity and honor de-
mand, and we shall not be blind to the
greatness and grandeur of our national des-
tiny. And so, through unparalleled popu-
lar triumphs, We advance to the restora toin
of this true Amerfcanism."

Mr.. Ingalls, Prospects.

Are the prospects now in favor of Mr..
Ingalls return to the United States Senate?"
THAT is a matter that cannot be deter
mined by any one at this time. There is no
doubt that Mr.. ingalls, will be a very for
midable candidate. He has a strong follow
ing, but there are other candidates who
have opposed him in the past, and while the
names Of new candidates have not been sug-
gested, have little doubt in my mind that
there will be one or two additional men in
the natorship contest. 1 think that ex-
Representative Peters will come out as a
candidate, although he has not yet done So"
How is the drift of sentiment in Kansas
on the silver question: Mr.. kirkpatrick
was asked.
There is not so much talk about silver in
Kansas now as heretofore though there is
very strong silver sentiment, which is not
confined to the democratic party, many re-
publicans feeling favorable to it."
Speaking of the House organization, Mr.
kirkpatrick said that while the Kansas dele.
CATION is supposed to be in the combine, he
was satisfied there had been no agreement
among its members to pledge the delega ton
and he proposed to vote for Gen. Henderson
for clerk of the House.

Il have no doubt we will carry the state

present indications, I am inclined to think
there will be rombinati ton between demo-
Gratis and populists in that state. At least
some of the leaders in both these parties
appear to be working energetically to that
end. But If this combination is effected 1t
will not be possible to lead the rank and file
of the two parties to the polls on a COM
bined ticket There are too many democrats
who do not take kindly to populist doc
trines. and many populists will not indorse
democratic views. If this combination is

OKLAHOMA'S PROSPECTS
Mr.. Kirkpatriek's Views as to Her Admis-
sion as State
How the Indians of the Five Tribes
Might Become extraordinarily
Claims for the Senate.

IT am not inclined to believe that Congress
will admit Oklahoma into the Union as
state until the land occupied by the Five
Civilized tribes is Joined to 1t. and can come
into the Union as part of the state" said
Representative Kirkpatrick of Kansas
to Star reporter today. This is one of the
questions think Congress will have to take
up, and, while 1 have not satisfied myself
that it can be accomplished, yet believe it
can be from a study of the question which
has not been so thorough as to set all doubt
at rest.
Il believe there is nothing in the treaties
the United States has made with the Five
Nations to prevent legislation making 1t pos
sible for any Indian belonging to one of
these tribes to sever his tribal relations, and
to receive his portion of the funds of the
tribe, together with citizenship. OF course,
the United States would not wish to force
the Indians to abandon their tribal rela-
tons, and that would probably be in viola
ton of the treaties, but they can, 1t seems to
me, permit any Indian, who wishes to be-
come citizen, to withdraw from his tribal
relations
An Induccment Suggested.
eff law were passed making it possible
for the Indians to withdraw from the tribes
I think there would be rush among the In
dams to take advantage Of this opportunity.
Seeing that the opportunity was at hand for
other Indians to withdraw from the tribes
and to receive portion of the land and of
the funds held by the government, in sew
crafty, each Indian would fear that if he de-
layed accepting the offer the best land would
be taken up and he would be the loser.
Some of these tribes have passed laws eX
tremely severe in the penalties provided for.
In one of the nations the death penalty will
be pronounced on member of the tribe who
is convicted of advocating the division of the
lands Of. the tribe in severalty. 1t seems to
me that the United States will have to step
power of the tribes.

The Je,c and the Christian.

Joseph H. Choa,e and Edward Lauter-
bach were associated in suit short time
ago and won. As the jury left their seats,
Mr.. Lauterbach turned to Mr.. Choate, and
said
"Choate, we won this verdict because we
happened to know more law on this subject
than our adversaries"
"Yes?" queried Choate. "What do you
think we ought to charge, Lauterbach ?"
"Oh, $3.50 apiece"
"Tut, tut" broke in Choate, impatiently,
and he repeated "Tut, tut You let me
handle this bill, Lsuterbsch. I'll collect for
us both"
A short time afterward Mr.. Lauterbach
was in Mr, Cboate's Office in Wall street,
and Mr. Choate handed out a check for ST.
500 as Mr.. Lauterbach's fee in the case and
said
"Lauterbach, what do you think Of that 7"

stroked his beard for au instant, and look
