Chickasaws Raise License Fee.

Denison, Tex, Oct. 1.-THE
Chickasaws have passed bill rails
ing the marriage license fee.
The bill was up some time back,
passed the house, but was defeated
in the senate. Some amendments
were made and the bill was again
offered for passage, passing the
senate and house with but one vote
against it in each house.
The bill provides that the mar
riage license, where a citizen of
the United States marries Chick
asaw woman, shall be raised from
the present price of $50 to 5000.
This applies to intermarriage Ii
cense only. The licence for mar
riage among the Chickasaws will
remain the same at present. 1t is
Chickasaw law that unless the
citizens of the Chickasaw Nation
are married under the ChickaSaw
laws they are not legally married
and entitled to citizenship in the
Chickasaw Nation. 1t would be
necessary. therefore, for all white
men who marry in the Chickasaw
Nation to conform to the law of the
Nation and become legally consti-
tuted citizens.
1t is said that Gov. johnson op-
poses the bill and will veto it, but
it has not gone to the governor yet
for his veto or approval, and it is
not known whether the bill will
become a law or not. AS there
was but one vote against it in the
house, it would probably be easy
to pass it over the governors veto
unless there is something to work
a change of sentiment in the mat
ter.

Judge Thomas, DECISION.

Some of the papers of the Cen
trail district seem to doubt the
statement that Judge Thomas re-
garded certain sections of the Cur
tbs bill as unconstitutional The
case in which the declaration was
made was that of Bernard Burns,
of this city, a minor heir to large
Cherokee estate, whose admins
traitor asked the court for an order
to sell some farms in the Cherokee
Nation, on the grounds that the
Curtis bill made it penal offense
for him to hold the land after nine
months after the passage of the
Curtis bill. Judge Thomas po-
sition was that that portion of the
Curtis bill could not be enforced,
as it provided for the confseation
of property without due process of
law. There is no doubt but what
Judge Thomas position is the cor
rect one, and the only question is
whether Cherokee land owned by
the tribe in common would come
under that clause of the constitu-
ton to which the court REFEREED
Vinita Chieftain.

Porto Rico wants Reforms.

San Juan de Porto Rico, Dec. e.
The report put in circulation here that
the United States government will take
no definite action to establish a COM
prehensive scheme Of Porto Rican ad-
ministration for at least year has
provoked much adverse comment.
A meeting has been held by local
business men, Americans and Porto
Ricans, to protest vigorously against
any delay in reforms which are abso-
lutely necessary to prevent the contin-
uance of serious abuse. The same
meeting condemned the action of the
American authorities in collecting ar
rears Of Spanish taxes since 1883, and
called for the application OF Am erican
laws and the establishment of free
trade with the United States.

en- of the republic Of Hawaii should

~ Illinois, Sanford B. Dole, of Hawaii,
and Walter f. Grier, of Hawaii, as com

congress such legislation concerning the
hawaiian islands as they should deem
necessary or proper.
Recommendations of the Commission.
The commissioners having fulfilled the
mission confided to them, their report
will be laid before you at an early day.
II Is believed that their recommends
tions will have the earnest consideration
due to the magnitude Of the responsibility
resting upon you to give such shape to
the relationship of those mid Pacific lands
to our home union as will benefit both in
the highest degree, realizing the aspira-
tlons of the community that has cast its
lot with us ard elected to share our DO
ltcal heritage, while, at the same time,
iustiiying the foresight OF those who Tor
three-quarters of a century have looked
TO the assimilation of Hawaii as a natural
and inevitable consummation in harmony
with our needs and in fulfillment of our
cherished traditions.
New Maritime Policy.
The annexation of Hawaii and the
changed relations of the United States to
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines re-
sulting from the war; compel the prompt
adoption of a mart time policy by frequent
steamship communication encouraged by
the United states, under the American flag
with the newly acquired islands. Spain
furnished to its colonies, at an annual cost
of about $2OOO,000, steamship lines COM
municating with a portion of the word'e
markets as well as with trade centers of
the home government. The United States
will not undertake to do less. It Is our
duty to furnish the people of Hawaii with
facilities under national control, for their
export and import trade. It will be con-
ceded that the present situation calls for
legislation which shall be prompt, dur
able and liberal.

ARMY REORGANIZATION.
Standing Force of 100000 Men Needed
Under Present Conditions,

Under the act of congress approved
April 26, 1898, authorizing the president in
MS discretion, upon declaration of war
by congress or declaration by congress
that war exists, l directed the increase
OF the regular army to the maximum Of
$1,000, authorized in said act.
There are now in the regular army ST.
S@ officers and men. In said act it was
provided: THAT at the end of any war in
which the United States may become in
VOWED, the army shall be reduced to a
peace basis by transfer in the same
arm OF the service or absorption, by pro-
motion or honorable discharge, under
such regulations as the secretary may es-
tHhNSN Of s'No~','-.> cr.,- W. = ~nH
GERS and the honorable discharge or trans.
nothing contained in this act shall be
construed as authorizing the permanent
increase OF the command of enlisted force
OF the regular army beyond that now pro-
Vded by the law in force prior to the
passage of this act except as to the in
crease OF % majors provided for in section
! hereof"
Ihe Importance of legislation for the
permanent increase of the army is there
lore manifest, and the recommendation
ol the secretary of war for that purpose
mas my unqualified approval. There can
oe no question that at this time and prob
ABLY for some time in the future 100000
men VIII be none too many to meet the
necessities of the situation. At all events,
Wnether that number shall be required
permanently or not, the power should be
gwen TO the president to enlist that force
III his discretion 1t should be neces-
Saly ana the further discretion should
De given him to recruit within the above
unit unit from the Inhabitants of the islands
WIN WIN the government of which we are
volunteers to he Sent Home.
IL Is my purpose to muster out the en-
liIe volunteer army as soon as congress
shail provide for the increase of the regu-
iar establishment. This will be only an
act OF justice, and will be much appre-
vlated by the brave men who left their
nomes nome and employments to help the coun-
Try in its emergency.
