GROWING IN FAVOR.

At the end of one week since
the promulgation of the agree
ment between the Cherokees and
the Dawes commission, and after
continuous and thorough discus
sion of same, there is evidence
that it is growing in popularity
among Cherokees, and it is reason
ably safe to say that it will be
ratified, One week from next
Tuesday and its fate will be
settled so far as the Cherokee
people are concerned. Many wh 10
were violently opposed to it at the
first are beginning to realize that
it is really better to ratify it than
defeat it, and are coming over in
favor of it and will vote according
ly. Careful thought is generally
sufficient to Insure vote for the
treaty, and from now forward till
the election the Cherokee people
will be absorbed in deep thinking.
There will be no money spent on
the election as there are no can
didates running for office. If the
weather is favorable large vote
will be polled, as in this election
are the very issues of life to the
people of the Cherokee nation.
The 3lst day of this January will
be historic day and our hope is
that it will be used to the best
advantage.

AS the discussion pro and con
on the treaty goes on there is
undoubtedly a gain of sentiment
in favor of its ratification. The
favorite argument in its favor
seems to be that the treaty pro-
vides a final settlement as to the
allotment of land. The Cherokee
people are sick and tired OF un-
certainty and want to get whatever
amount of land falls to them as
individuals, so that they may
know what is their own property.
This alone ought to be sufficient to
carry the treaty by a fair majority.

Whatever may be the outcome
of the Cherokee treaty, it shows
the unalterable and immovable
position the people have taken
against annexation TO Oklahoma.
"The government" said promi-
nent republican recently, "will ig-
more this proposition" The gov
ernment will do nothing of the
kind. By its representatives, the
Dawes commission, it has entered
into an agreement with the Chero-
KEGS, and the federal government
will have no more right to set
aside this provision than it has to
abrogate the whole treaty. The
Cherokees will insist that this
provision remains in the treaty; If
not, the entire agreement will be
nullified. When the Creeks treat,
the. same or a similar clause will
be inserted, and it will be ac-
quiesced in by the Dawes commits
sion and also by congress. South

END OF THE STORM.
The West Indian Wanderer Has
Caused Some Apprehension, but
Did very Little Damage.

After causing several days of
apprehension, discomfort and
bluster the weather department
treated Charleston yesterday to
an October day and fall tenn
perature. The change was most
welcome to everybody, and now
the wise ones say: "The cool
week in August has arrived. :"
The last vestiges of the West In
dian cyclone disappeared yester-
day, and there was only enough
wind to make things agreeable.
A clear sky was overhead, but
the sums rays seemed tempered,
and for the first time in MANY
weeks the shady side of the streets
was not at a premium.
Reports that come in from the
sea island cotton and rice fields
are to the effect that little or no
damage has been done to the
storm. From the Combahee, Sa-
vannah and Cooper River rice
plantations the reports are that
as most of the rice is yet stand
ing the high tide did not hurt it.
Usually these tropical storms find
the rice cut and stacked in the
fields, and in this condition great
damage can be done.
One of the prominent sea is.
land cotton planters said that ex.
cept for the beating off of some
bolls the cotton was not seriously
affected by the storm. These
bolls, he said, would likely have
fallen off anyway.-News and

LANGUAGE OF ADAM.
The Novel Project of q Scientist

Two Hundred Infants to BE
Raised by Deaf Mutes on
an Island Where SpO-

A well-known scientist is going
to try and find the key to the
language spoken in Paradise. He
intends to find an island some
where, at present uninhabited, and
which possesses a good, healthy
climate. This he will colonize
with 100 or 200 children under
the age of two years.
These children will be solely

can neither read nor write. No
sound of the human voice will be
allowed to reach these children.
1t is thought that the mode of
communication which the chill
dren will adopt as they grow to
maturity will give a clew to the
original languarge used by man.
They will be furnished with all
the comforts and advantages of
modern civilization, save that
they will not be allowed to hear
the human voice. That this plan
will in a single generation give
birth to new language is open
to discussion, but it will be nee
essary to confine this article sole
ly to what the scientist purposes,
and to leave the reader to spec
ulate as to the outcome.

Mr.. z. j. Moran, in an article
in the Atlanta Constitution, says:
Gas an illustration of the man
ner in which the farm ers of the
country have lost heretofore, it is
only necessary to repeat state,
ment recently made by Mr.. He's
ter, of New Orleans, that out OF
an annual cotton receipt of one
million three hundred thousand
bales in that city over thirty-seven
thousand bales were made up out
of samples which had been ruth
lessly p!ucked from the bales by
the men who handled them, which
should have gone into the parish
es of louisiana" Not the least
merit of the American Cotton
Company's Roundlap bale is that
besides its other economies it pre-
vents this Unjust tribute from be-
ing levied on the farmer.

For the Enterprise.
Bonded Warehouses a Necessity.

Mr.. EDITOR :-Notwithstanding
the floods in Texas, and drought
in South Carolina, and other cot
ton growing States, and the
decrease in cotton acreage the
cotton spectators are determined
to put down the price of cotton.
They estimate the crop at IL, ,O0O,-
600 bales, and on the publication
of this estimate (made to order
by Mr.. NELLY the price declined
60 points. The fact of decreased
acreage, floods and drought, are
ignored in this absurd estimate.
Yet the buyers fix prices in
accord with such an estimate.
The cotton planters should act in
concert, and at once, to prevent
being robbed of their honest earn
ings. The cotton spectators
know that the cotton crop is
mortgaged for supplies to make
it. And that the merchant that
furnished the supplies is COM
PEELED to have his money for sup
plies as the mortgages Cor lines)
become due to meet his own
liabilities. Hence the cotton will
be forced to sale regardless of
price. The only relief is bonded
warehouses in every market
town, where cotton can be stored.
and money drawn on warehouse
certificates. which will enable the
cotton planter to pay the mer-
chant for supplies advanced, and
hold his cotton until there is a
legitimate demand for it from
manufacturers. Then he will get
a fair price, and will no longer
be robbed by greedy spectators.
York is building a bonded ware
house, Kershaw speaks of build
ing one. Let every cotton mar
ket be supplied with one and fair
prices will be secured and the far
mer and merchant greatly re.
lieved. GRAYBEARD.

aged years: Elmer Plus, aged 5 years,
and Waiter Jones, aged years.
u Mrs. Hauser says her husband treat
ed her in an intolerable, shameful and
ainhuman manner. On Oct. "a, 1898, the
defendant declared that he would not
Slive with her and that he would not
sgpermit her to live with him. He called
her vile and indecent names and ac-
$cused her of infidelity. On Oct. "a, 1893,
on account of the defendants violence
and abusive language, being in fear of
great bodily injury, if not of her life,
she was compelled by the defendant to
leave their home, but that afterwards.
on the defendants promises to be kind

him.
I On Sept. Is. 1894, the defendant, so
tthe complaint sets forth, struck the
plaintiff with his fist, which blow
bruised ana injured the painful, caus-
ing her great bodily injury He also
charged her with adultery with various
men,
On Feb. %, 1899, the defendant locked
her in their home and violently abused
and assaulted her, which action was re-
peated on March 2. 1899.
4 BY reason of these acts the plaintiff
finds that her life is made miserable
and is rendered uncomfortable, and she is
extremely alarmed for her safety.
The plaintiff further alleges that the
defendant is the owner of the south 105
feet of lot s, in block 81. city of Ana
conda, together with the building there
on. valued at $780, and rental value
of $50 per month; and also that he has
