Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1898-03-03

A little "weasen-faced' man with his
right arm off close up TO the shoulder,
was brought before Judge Thomas last
week and sentenced to four years inn
prisonment for the theft of twenty-five
head of cattle. 1t was the notorious
Dick Adams, outlaw, whisky peddler and
thief; the man who was the terror of the
Grand river country year ago. There
were four or five other indictments
against him, all but one of which were
nolled. Dick Adams came to this coun-
try from Missouri few years ago and
engaged i'll farming. He owned good
team and wagon; was an industrious man
and good farmer. He made a crop the
first year on Cute Benge's farm, on
Lynch's prairie, and it is said that he
would rise before day in the morning and
be ready to go to work in the field by
sunrise. Not finding farming profitable
enough he decided to try selling whisky.
He would go on horseback to the Arkan-
sas line during the day and return at
night with load of whisky which he
sold out, principally to the colored popu-
latlon along Grand river. After the Of
ficers got after him he took up his abode
with the negroes exclusively and began
to steal cattle. 1t is said he never shot
at a man in his life, and was a notorious
coward, always running away when an
attempt was made to capture him.

There was a touching scene in
the United States court room last
Saturday when the mother of Mil
burn Lovelace was called into
court to answer to a charge of per-
Jury committed in the case in
which her son was being tried for
murder. The district attorney
offered a motion to nolle the case
against her. Judge Thomas said
that he fully concurred In the
motion to nolle. The judge spoke
with much feeling; said that he
had had a mother once, and that a
mothers love had never been
gagged in this world, and that it
was broader and deeper than any
thing else in all the realm of hu-
manity and that in his court no
mother wculd be convicted of the
crime of perjury where her own
child's life was in jeopardy. Judge
Thomas eyes grew misty and his
voice husky as he spoke of the
incident. The court room became
suddenly quiet, as the judge paus
ed to wipe away the tears from his
eyes, and the gray haired woman
sat in her chair weeping softly, at
torneys around the bar looked far
away to hide or force back the
tears. All, such scenes in a court
that we are sometimes wont to
think cold and harsh and unfeel-
ing, comes like a benediction, and
we see thro' the mists and myster-
les of human existence, and under
stand how the whole world is

improvements to be Made on the
Association's PROPERTY.


The Board of Directors of the Young
Mems Christian Association have
adopted plans for remodeling their
property at the corner of Fifth and j
streets and for the building of a gym
nasium on the lot in the rear of their
large brick structure. It is proposed to
use the lower floor and basement of the
building now on the lot and construct a
two-story brick building in the rear,
the whole to be devoted entirely to the
work of the association. This will give
room for allarge gymnasium and swim
ming tank, hand-ball court and tub
and shower baths in the addition to be
built.
In the building now on the property
will be placed a reading room, parlor,
game room, class rooms, office and hail.
The whole will be fitted up in a neat
and attractive manner and made as
cosy as possible for the young men, a
place worthy Of the city and cause for
which it is to be established.
The Directors hope by the liberality
Of the citizens to make the association
in Sacramento equal to that in any
city of it's size on the continent. To
accomplishe this a Finance and Build
ing Committee has been appointed, who
will put forth every effort to reach the
desired end. They will make a thor
ough canvas among the business
houses and citizens generally for con-
tributions to enable them to carry out
their plans, which are so much needed

The New York Dock Department has
passed q resolution by which the wages
Of all its mechanics are fixed at the
union scale. John ]. Pallas, OF the
Patternmakers' Union, who is a mem
Der Of the Board of Walking Delegates,
was notified yesterday by William II.
Burke, Secretary Of the Dock Board,
that, it having been found that the
wages paid to carpenters by the Dock
Department were less than the union
wages, it had been decided to pay them
the union rate Of "A cents an hour.
New York Central Labor Union has
directed its corresponding secretary to
write to the Secretary OF the Navy and
ask him to instruct the commandants
of all the navy yards that eight hours
constitute a days labor on all govern
ment works. Delegate Michael brown,
of the cigarmakers, made complaint
against District Assembly 220, knights
of Labor, of Brooklyn, which he said
had been advertising the goods OF
firm that employed non-union LABOR
and was under boycott. Another del

Of strikers with its own members.
1--WE object against all signs, adver-

that take orders at cut prices. We OBJ
ject against all clothing stores and
tailors who agree to keep the clothes
in order free of charge for a length OF

or bought ready made from them. We
object against all cleaning establish
ments which work for the trade, and
besides do repairing for the public,
thereby engaging In competition to the

the war cries that have been adopted
by the Merchant Tailors' Association
that has recently been organized IN
New York.
What an awakening there will be
some day when the mighty hosts OF Ia
Dor realize their power! The idea
would be terrifying if it did not pres
age a peaceful revolution. How long
could the intrenched forces of corrupt
monopoly, barricaded behind purchased
presidents, and hedged in by the con-
nivance of politicians, stand against
the onslaught of such an army? Not
rabble; not band of shambling
outcasts, without cause, or without
a leader; not a mob Of violent agita-
tors, devoid of reason and intolerable
in their demands; but an organization
of earnest men, working for the gem
eral welfare, and seeking in communi-
ty Of interest the power to right their
individual wrongs. If laws Cypress
them that is their fault. If courts are
organized to rob them they have only
themselves to blame If parties plot
to enslave them, submission upon their
part puts them beyond the pale of
sympathy.-New York Evening jour
