A SENSIBLE PROPOSITION.

That the sale Of intoxicants is
going right on unmolested in sew
eral places in this city will not be
denied. That several gambling
"rooms" are also in full blast will
be admitted. That all this is open
and barefaced violation Of the law
is also another fact that no one will
deny. We have two sets Of officers
here who have jurisdiction in this
matter and who are under oath to
enforce the law. When a man can
not see his way clearto do his
duty as an officer he ought to re-
sign and get out Of the way.
Judge Clayton of the Central dis
trict has issued an order against
the sale of hop ale and quotes the
law. Clayton's order has the ring
of courage and manhood and it is
very certain that he knows the
law, and also proposes that his or.
der be enforced. To the other
judges and commissioners in the
Indian Territory we would. say,
Ego thou and do likewise" Fol-
lowing is the order of Judge Clay
ton:
~ wish TO say that | consider
hop ale a malt liquor and that the
statute prohibits the manufacture,
sale, giving away of any vinous,
malt or iermented liquors, that
hop ale beinga malt liquor is spec.
tally named in the statute as one
Of the liquors prohibited, that the
words OF the statute, 'or any other
intoxicating drinks of any kind
whatsoever do not require that
the proof shalt be made that malt
liquor shall be intoxicating IN or.
der to take it without the statute,
but on the contrary it is a declara-
ton of the law that malt liquors
are intoxicating, and therefore
when the proof shows that the par
ticular liquor in question is a malt
liquor its manufacture and sale is
within the penalties of the law,
but inasmuch as there has been an
understanding heretofore among
the people that hop ale was not
within the provisions Of the law
and therefore allowed it to be used
IN the Indian Territory, it is con-
sidered nothing more than just
that proper notice should be given
of the changed ruling Of the court.
Therefore commissioners, consta-
bles, and marshal's force will be
directed to enforce the law strictly
from July /, 1897, as against hop
ale, or any other malt liquor, in +.
dependent ofthe fact that the proof
may show that they are not intox-
icating."

WITH all the opposition that
will be brought against Pete Hast
ings it is not at all probable that
he will be defeated for election to
the senate from Delaware. He
belongs to a very respectable ele-
ment in Delaware politics and is a
first class hustler withal. The
fact that he is a brother of Bill
Hastings will augment rather than
retard his chances after all, as Bill
will spend money rather than be
the means of defeating his brother.

The case of John Redbird, the
Indian who is charged with being
responsible for the recent outbreak
iD Wyoming. brings to mind a
phase of the Indian problem gen.
orally overlooked or misunder-
stood. John Redbird expresses
it all in quite forcible ifnot elegant
English when he says that he "can
never be much of a white man, but
that he can be hell Of an Indian. +"
John had spent a number Of years
at Harvard and came home an ed
ucated Indian, but he hadn't been
back among his native people
many days until his dress suit be-
gan to chaie him, and he longed to
have his classic feet incased again
in beaded moccasins. Accordingly
John doiied the habiliments of
the white man and again arrayed
himself like the people of his tribe,
buckled a gun on and went out
and "tanked up" on red liquor,
and was no longer white man
but, as he expressed it, "a hell OF
an Indian" John started a row
that eventually took section ofthe
United States army to stop An
Indian is an Indian and the only
way to change him is TO infuse
white blood into his yeins. A
white man is a white man and can
not be an Indian, though he try il
never so peTsistently.

COmmendatory Words for lhe COLLEGE

DR.. ). l.. Burrow OF Altus, Ar
kansas, who visited the college
here at commencement and
preached the annual sermon, has
written the following letter to
Brother Butler, pastor of the
Methodist church in this city. 1t
is so relevant and contains so much
sound advice touching the school
that we think it should be printed.
ALrUs, ARK, June 18th. isg7.
DEAR BROTHER BUTLER:-You
have asked me my opinion
of Willie Halsell College-its pres
ent and future. Well, you know
l was there only about three days
and nights. | left before the chief
part of the closing program was
rendered; but from what | did see
and hear | feel prepared to say the
present is altogether favorable.
The work done during the year is
always supposed to be evidenced
by what the school does on COM
mencement occasions. What !
witnessed indicated honest and
square work in all departments,
even the dining room.
President Chapman and his CO.
adjutors have no cause TO he
ashamed of their work and | am
sure they are not. Oae oflhe best
evidences Of success is the appre-
citation manifested by the friends
and citizens Of the school, shown
by the large audiences at the pub
lie exercises. In this particular one
could ask no more than was given
during my stay, both in the church
service and the college entertain
ments. The people are certainly
with the school; | heard not a
word Of adverse criticism. While
there | had favorable opportunities
to weigh well the presidents plans
for the future conduct of the school
all of which ] heartily approve,
If permitted to carry them out
there is no doubt of abundant sue
cess; indeed, il is about the only
way such a school can succeed,
There is in that 100 acres Of land
a large endowment if it can be de-
veloped The plan now being in
auguraled will surely do that. Al
| view it, there are but two thing;
either of which would retard II not
wholly prevent development
One Is, should Vinita become dis
loyal it would hurt it much; the
other is undue or unwise inter
ference by the conferences. IL Il
tar easier for a church TO kill
school than it is to make one. /
is a fact that good clocks are offer
ruined by needless tinkering witt
their running gear. Sometime
churches spoil good schools by to-
much tinkering With their runninl
machinery. Building up a schoo
and maintaining a school is bus
iness-a busines too that churches
per. Sc know very little of, Blu
as long as they are in the business
they think they must be doinI
something and they will, whethe
it be wise or otherwise. The NOR
al part Of schools do pretty wei
| in the hands of the church, bu
the business part is always il
danger. The moral is, "Let tn
church furnish the morals OF lh
schools, and business men th
brains" " j l.. BURRow.

The National Federation Of Musical
Clubs. which was partially organized in
New York City last june, at the meet
ing Of the Music Teachers National As
ISOLATION. with Mrs. Theodore Satro OF
New York as first president, has issued
invitations to the musical clubs OF the
country, inviting them to send delegates
to q meeting to be held in November or
December. when permanent Oresniza-
ton will be effected.
Musical clubs receive little benefit
from the ordinary declarations, whether
state or national, beyond contributing
their quota to the program: and this is
more to vary tbs monotony OF papers
and discussions with the soothing effect
Of sweet sounds. than to bring forward
the musical organizations. In the many
programs Of declarations all over the
country, seldom is q topic introduced
that might prove OF practical value to Z
musician. Art. libraries ana civics are in.
terspersed with child-study and parlia-
meutary practice, but nothing towards
the growth OF musical culture.
This new organic alton not only hopes
to stimulate and encourage the cause Of
music, but also to render more practic
able to the clubs. the securing OF artists
for recitals.
The place OF meeting for this fall, is to
be decided by the vote OF the clubs send
ing delegates, and both Chicago and
Omaha are mentioned in this connec
ton, in case enough western clubs should
favor the project.
