THE KEE-T00-WAHS.
Hold a Star Chamber Meet
ing at Fl. Gibson,

There was a meeting of the Kee-
ioo-wahs, or fullblood Cherokees,
at this place on Monday and Tues
day of last week, at which j. II g.
Dick, Daniel Gritts, Dave Musk
rat and Frank j. Boudinot presid-
ed. 1t appears that those parties
are the executive committee for the
lullblood Cherokees and held a
conference here with the Kee-too-
wah attorney, Frank j. Boudinot.
What was done or " nat conclusion
was decided upon, we are unable
TO determine, for the meeting was
a star chamber affair. But two Of
the parties could speak English-
Boudinot and Dick. From these
we learned in a general way, that
the meeting was satisfactory and
promising Of good results.
In answer TO enquiries, Mr.. Dick
said that affairs OF the fullbloods
are more promising at present
than for several years back-that
things are coming more their way
that the authorities at Washing
ton seem To be getting orto the real
situation here, and are acting ac-
oordingly. He said there has
been a disposition among some Of
the iullbloods not to enroll their
names with the Dawes commits
sion, but thought they would get
over that shortly. They want al.
lotment, but want all the lands di.
vided equally between members
Of the tribe by blood, and none
others. The executive committee
left for Tableguah Tuesday after.
noon, TO return here in a few days
for further conference, before the
big Kee.too.wah meeting to be
held at Bug Tucker Springs, Aug.
ust lltb, which is expected to be
one Of the largest and most i'm.
poriant meetings ever held there,
at which Cherokee matters will be
thoroughly discussed, and future
action Of the Kee-ioo- wAhs decided
upon. Fl. Gibson Post.

N. Leuret, the French manufacturer
of artificial pearls from fish scales says
that he will come to the United States
and erect works as soon rs he hears
of a locality where the right kind Of
scales can be had in large quantities.
1t is suggested that suitable place
might be found on the st. Lawrence
river. among the Thousand Islands.
The scales should be small and have .
silver sheen. The brighter they are
the higher price they will command.
The scales should be removed while
the fish are alive II possible. Twenty
i've thousand pounds Of these scales
ran be used year. 1t is anticipated
that twice that quantity may be used
in q few years.

The Democratic party is constituted
as the party of opposition. 1t is op-
posed to whatever the Republican par
ty has done or contemplates doing, and
it is always ready to announce itself
in favor of any plan which is indorsed
by n number of voters sufficient to
make their support worth the trouble.
1t is part of It's plan to take advant-
age of every disaffection or difference
that may exist among Republicans,
and It is always ready to conciliatc
these disaffected elements and to adopt
them into the Democracy on terms
sometimes fair to them but always ad-
vantageous to the Democrats. 90.
A striking. instance of this willing
ness of the Democracy to do almost
anything in order to get votes is given
by the action Of the Kansas City con-
vention in regard to the silver plank.

A timely warning is sounded against
any wholesale rush of fortune-seekers
to South Africa. The ending of the
war and the absorption of the Boer
..tates into the British Empire will
doubtless stimulate migration to those
regions and will also increase the op-
portunities of profitable settlement
there. But 1t will not be prudent tor
any one to go thither without some
capital. or at least sufficient resources
to maintain him for some time in inde-
pendence of anything he may or may
not do there. 1t is an expensive conn
try to live in. and the gold mines and
other sources of profit can be worked
only at considerable expense. It Is a
country in which capital will find prof
table investment, but not one in which
the penniless adventurer Is likely to
pick lip fortune.
