want any changes made in their
local affairs; they would rather re-
tain their former government if
they could. If any changes have
to he made they would prefer the
government oil the United States
TO settle their affairs for them as
they are in the minority when it
comes to a vote in election. Take
the statutes of the members of the
-so-called Cherokee tribe-there
ARE seven different classes, includ-
ing the fuEblood Cherokees. The
following are the six who are of
the different classes and who gen.
orally vote together to-wit: Della
wares, Snawnees, coloraG, the in
termarried white adopted citizens,
the people admitted to citizenship
since the late war. The seventh
class are the fullbloods, with few
mixed blood Cherokees who emil
grated here from Georgia in the
years Of 1837-1839. They say un-
der the present state of affairs it
would be useless for them to think
about asking for change. If any
changes have to be made in their
common way Of holding land let
the government make it for them.
Of course they would be compelled
to submit; they say they could not
ask for anything that they are not
in favor OF, and furthermore say if
they even wanted to make
change they could not do so on ac-
count of some kind of an agree
ment that was made with the NJ,
K. d t. railroad in the year of
1859 when it was granted the right
of-way through the Cherokee ma
tion to build the road, with the
understanding that this railroad
company was to have every other
alternate section of lead on each
side of the road for ten miles
whenever they become extinct or
made a change of their form of
government by or with their own
voluntary act; and it 10 further
more believed by them that this
land monopoly and the COW kings
are connected with someIzind Of a
well planned scheme to cold their
grass land as long as they can.
Well, now vie will come to the So
much-talked-of treaty pending
they are afraid of it; they think
there must be some we'll planned,
deep scheme in it. If ratified by
the votes of tie Cherokee people
it would develop in long, weary
some law suit in the high courts
Of the United States, which would
make q confusion for the next ten
years to come before a judgment
could be rendered. However, a
move Of this kind would not hurt |
the cattle men nor the land mo-
nopolists. bat at the same time !
would prove hardship to the
class Of Cherokees who are back
IN the hills. and the majority ef
ihem without any lands, and they
would be compelled to remain
back into the hills.

final gong sounded. Whereas the West,
the South, Wall Street and Europe, had
bought on the opening rise, representatives
of all those interests were heavy sellers
on the break. Once more jubilant bears
hammered the entire list, and called at
tention to better weather prospects and
good crop reports from Texas. y tumble
of four cents in wheat also operated as
stimulant upon the selling movement.
Conservative estimates of the day
transactions placed the amount at consid-
erably over 100000 bales, the trades made
in many instances reaching thousands of
bales in a single opera ton. The feeling
after the close of Change was weak, the
crowd anticipating a bull panic in Liver
