Quite a cold wave visited this sec
tion last week but at this writing the
weather looks very favorable for fall
work.
We notice quite lot in the
columns of THE REPUBLICAN, about
raising large pumpkins in Garrett, es-
pecially from the Deer Park cores
pondent, but we take pleasure to tell
your readers about a pumpkin which
Mr. Levi Bittinger, of Savage River,
raised. The pumpkin weighed 624
pounds, being reported by Silas Bit
finger, who visited his parents at the
above named place last Sunday
Our schools opened Monday with
the following teachers: Mr.. Harvey
Custer, of Manadier's Ridge, as teach
er of the Merrill school, and Miss
Wiley, of Bittinger, as teacher of the
Coleman school. We wish both teach
ers and scholars much success.
James Merrill, of Savage River, paid
Jesse Robson very pleasant visit
Sunday evening.
Walter Grove, who was severely
cut with a saw while saving wood
some time ago, is well again.
The sang diggers have abandoned
their occupation and left for other
quarters of the globe.
Rev. j. II. Green preached a very
interesting sermon to a large audience
here Sunday.
A new bridge across Savage river at
this place will be erected in the near
future.
Mr.. Andy Bittinger and family, who
have been on a visit at Bittinger for
some time. have returned home

Misses Sadie Browning and Ethel
Rafter have been visiting friends in
Cumberland.
Two small children of Charley Bray
fell in the mill race last week and came
near drowning. They were rescued
by Mr.. Pew.
Blaine's school openedMonday with
18 scholars enrolled and Mr.. f. b.
Wilson as teacher Bert is a good re-
ligious young man of more than aver
age intelligence who passed in all the
first grade branches in the recent ex-
animation. His many friends and pa
irons of the school feel assured of a
successful term.
Our fond anticipations were not re-
allied from the fact that the Repub-
lican meeting at this place failed to
materialize. We regret this very
much as it is evident some of the is
sues of the coming election need dis
cussing at this place. The day was
fine and the people were disappointed.

tains, the needs of the survivors Of
the great original proprietors of every
foot of American soil Each year for
fifteen years q species of manifesto
has been issued from this high place
of the earth, and, given publicity by
the press, has served to arouse not
only the public, but legislators as
well from a lethargy that was content
to regard the Indian as being fittingly
out of mind because out Of sight on
his distant reservation. And while
the members of the conference alone
could have done but little to change
public opinion, yet their united voice
has had that mysterious influence
which is so characteristic of our
American life, where a great truth
may be apparently preached for long
without re suits, and then suddenly
overwhelm and overturn all opposi-
ton because Of the subtle spread
through the mass of the national
conscience.
Summing up now the work of
fifteen years, and purposely barring
Out-because of space-all details in
teresting though they might be, what
is our present attitude towards the
300, 900 wards of the nation that still
survive?
Briefly it is That the reservation
system, as at first organized with its
barrier-like arrangement of rules
stopping railroads, telegraphs, roads,
etc, was a definite setback to
progress; that the refusal of land
rights to the individual Indian was
the most certain way to make his in
terest in the soil under his feet of the
very slightest character that the re
sulting and evidently necessary is
suance of rations (some as a matter
of treaty. only served to make the
Indian lazy and shiftless and there
fore still less desirable as an integral
part of this great eager, pushing, toll
ing nation. AS deductions from the
fore going, a few broad lines have
been laid down for us to follow: that
the Indian must own his land; that
he must have it held in trust by the
government for twenty-five years at
least, so that sharpers may not de
prive him of it; that practical farmers
must be on hand in sufficient mum
bers, particularly in arid regions, in
order to show the Indian how to live;
that only high-priced and, therefore,
high-class, non political appointees
shall be Indian agents, and only then
regarded as makeshifts until the In
dian is ready for citizenship; and that
liberal encouragement be given to
industrial schools and missionary in
tiuences in order that over the humble
house of the Indian, newly settled in
the little homestead (Which is an alb
solute departure from the habit of his
fathers) may be shed the real encour-
agement and helpfulness of our
bright, present day existence

1t was ordered that the above bills
be allowed and warrants be drawn to
cover them.
At this point the clerk read a bill
from the county for the rent of the
court house and taking care of patients
at the county hospital, but as there
had been some mistake in the figuring
of the rate on script the bill was laid
over until next meeting.
Bills and communications were call
ed, and the clerk read petition from
the Campbell Real Estate Co., by B. F.
Hammett, asking that the Southwest
ern Telegraph and Telephone Co. be
made to remove one OF their poles
which they had placed in front of the
new building on st. Louis street be-
cause the said pole is in the way OF put
ting up q veranda around the building.
The council authorized the street and
grade committee to notify the tele-
phone company that the aforesaid pole
would have to be moved.
AS per orders of the council OF two
or three meeting ago the clerk read a
communication from the Miller kno-
block Co. who are manufacturers OF
street sprinklers. The matter in ques-
tion was about sprinkler which they
had shipped to the city of Texarkana 3,
and that city had refused. The letter
stated that the sprinkler could be sold
to the city at cost of $3.50 which was
about 500 cheaper than the soriginal
cost as the freight from the shops to
Texarkana would be saved. The let
ter was ordered received and filed, for
future reference.
The clerk read a communication
from Il. T. White and other property
owners .of block AZ of the Mills addi-
ton kicking against permit which
the council had granted for the mo V
ing of frame building belonging to
Mrs. Miller. The council did not
know there was any reason for not
giving the permit when it was asked,
but now as there seemed to be some on
the same block who didn't want the
frame building there on account of
the fire risks, the council revoked the
permit and the building will not be
removed.
NEW TURN OF AFFAIRS.
Under the call of new business the
mayor stated to the council that he had
been informed by Millard Patterson
that his client had authorized him to
file writ of injunction if the city start
ed to build on that triangular piece of
ground where they intend to build.
So ne thought it best maybe to separ-
ate the city hall from the fire depart
ment, and just put the city hall there,
as he said Mr.. Patterson told him that
while the first kick from his
client sSheldon, was for an opening
left next to this property, he would be
satisfied il the city would not place
any fire department under the city
hall.
The mayor went on to state to the
council that there was a piece OF
ground on the corner of Stanton and
Overland which was ninety by one
hundred and thirteen feet which he
