BRINGING INDIANS AROUND.

General Armstrong of the Dawes
| commission, gives some hope that the
new commission knows more than was
| expected He said that the bosses of
| the Indian tribes are not in favor of
allotment, but that the mass of the
Indians are. If this is thoroughly I'M
derstOod by the Dawes commission it
is their business 10 so report to the gov
eminent
That is as far as their power goes. 1t
rests with congress TO issue the edict
which will reclaim the Indian from the
low, dirty, diseased. ignorant thraldonl
in which Il few Indian ringsters now
hold him.
That congress will do it there is little
doubt. The necessity for that action
is imperative. and congress, even slow,
sleepy, inactive congress must see it so.
Even the Indian ringsters are get
ting to 4 frame of mind where they
must accept the inevitable. The In
dian newspapers which are mostly
controlled by the Five tribe ringsters.
are beginning to give way and ac-
knowledge that they must bow before
necessity.
In last weeks issue the Vinita Chief
tan gives up the ghost as follows:
The question of allotment Of lands has
been discussed pro and con for the last
thirty years. And there are very few
leading Cherokee citizens that have not
at some time or other favored allotment
And now at the present stage Of the game
allotment is considered one of the things
inevitable. AS the time when this coun-
try will be allotted, it is very uncertain
but this we do know, the surveyors are
at work cutting up our country into sec
tons preparatory to placing every citizen
upon his or her pro rata share of the do
main. Congress is not experimenting.
The vast sums of money it will be neces-
sary to appropriate to pay for the survey
precludes the idea of il being done for
pastime. No, there is no use talking,
this country is soon to be allotted and the
question as to whether it is right for the
government to do this or not does not
enter into the subject at all. Individually
we believe that ii would be wisdom on the
part of the CherokeeS to accept allotment
at the earliest time possible. II would
make monopoly impossible. 1t would free
the country of intruders, that Is. 1t would
place the land in the hands of the right
full owners, and thus forever settle all
questions Of citizenship. And, if none of
these questions were TO be settled, or
needed settlement, this Cherokee govern
ment is rapidly reaching a point where
allotment will be necessary for the pro-
lection of the citizens, one against the
other. No honest man will contend that
it is right for some of our people TO own
and occupy thousands of acres while
others have none. Every citizen that has
more than his share of the public domain
should. as a matter OF right, be made to
disgorge, and the only way to regulate
this matter is undoubtedly by allotment"

| fold, never spoke harshly, except of
! hypocrites. He appealed to the in
| dividual, man and woman, always,
and not to the officer of human law.
| The Eagle does not refrain from a
ti-for-tat fight with the preachers of
| Wichita who have attacked it's editor
because Of fear, not by any means.
But believing in the church and hay-
| ing always and under all circum-
stances lent our influence TO it, hay-
ing helped to sustain its work, and
| to ever praise and encourage its mis-
sion and ministers, we would not now
prove a stumbling for the weak,
nor shock the truthful and trusting
These will be with us when some of
these criticiZing preachers will have
gone their way, and will be with us
to the end.
Preachers are no more than human
very human. 1t is not the sacred
htSS DuI III tll6lT eu-
vironment which renders some of
them anything but liberal in their
views or charitable in their impulses.
Everything which fails to come I'D 10
the particular standard of such is fit
only for condemnation. But there are
broad preachers, great loving souls
who prize their Christianity above
everything, because its founder loved
humanity $3.50 loved it that He died
for it. Approaching something of
these things the editor Of the Eagle
cannot be forced, by mere personal at
tacks upon himself, to criticize the
average preacher; but, if they want to
know how we feel when they join our
enemies TO pull Wichita down, let
them imagine how they would act and
what they would say if some Of their
own congregation should strike hands
with the world, the flesh, the devil, or
anybody else, to pull down the church
for whose upbuilding they had labor
ed night and day for a quarter of
century.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
Six Hard Looking Road Agents
Bring VIM Reuter- to Account.

BRING VIM Reuter- TO Account.
In going to the Turner picnic
yesterday Mr.. VIM. Reuter- was met
on the road, near the old haunted
house near the Mission Conception
by six highwaymen, who were
quite indistinguishable as to their
identity on account of their beet
red sun burned faces. All were
mounted on bicycles, which at
word from their leader, they drew
up in line across the road and dis
mounted, making further passage
of Mr.. Reuters heavily loaded hunt
ing wagon impossible.
MI. Reuter promptly threw up his
hands and told them he hadn't a
cent, but they refused to search
him and went to the wagon, where
very soon they had compelled Mr..
Reuter- to hand out a quart of Sara
toga and six quarts of Erlanger,
which they disposed of in as much
haste as if they had been Cuban in
surgents after hot fight.
Then bowling gracefully each rob-
Der remounted his wheel and rode
off, and strange to say,in the direc-
ton Of town.
Mr.. Reuter- continued on his way
to the Turner picnic and related
his experience. He thinks he recog-
nized the men as Messrs. Ed, AL
bert and Ernst Stoves, Alderman
A. F. Beckmann, Hugo Griesen-
beck and Chas. Wagner, and thinks,
by their awful thirst and despera-
ton, they must have ridden "a
miles. Evidence that they had been
holly pursued from their last ex-
plot was plentiful.

OAKLAND, Cal, May 2O.-"Gen-

national capital last year, has left
for Washington, accompanied by
his wife and two children, in a
prairie schooner, on what he con-

believes a monster petition will be
as likely to obtain recognition from
Congress as a crowd Of hungry men
camped on the steps of the Capitol,
and the purpose OF his trip is to OBJ
tain signatures to his prayer for
national help in times of general
depression. "Gen." Kelly will de-

which he will pass and after ex-
planning the purpose Of his mission
will submit a memorial to Con-
gress.
