WANT A RESERVATION
Indians In Skagway Need a Place
 to Baild Homes.

The sborsineeS ot the realm who have eeen attracted tO the metropolis by the glitter of life as the pale face lives it. and bv the joys that lie in the white mans burden, want reservation in Skagway.
 Many are the noble reds that have come here of late and made the outskirts of the town their camping ground. Their wig vans and teepeS are scattered along the river bank, about the shores of the bay and to the coyeS near the city. Happiness dwelt in the camp of the aboriginees while thsv lived in the narrow limits of thelr crude native sbOdeS, until the pale face came and set up grea. city here in their midst, and then they came 10 look and to trade.
 Now they have seen seen, and are wise, and their eyes are as the full moon as they contemplate the luXurieS even Of log cab in. A quiet agitation has arisen among the Indians and they want some space al. lote1 to them where they may build cab inS. The wigw 'm has lost all its allure mentS.
 This desire of the natives" Sald a Sk1gway business man yesterday, ais bv no means trivial. lt Is not passing fancy. They to want a pllee to build. and it be- hooveS Sklgway to see that thev get it.
 "The nstiveS complain that they come here to dwell in the city or near by, and are given the creek bed or the beach for their habiiation, They want a quarter where they eln remain unmOleSted. and where they will be enabled to put up small houses for their dwellings.
 "ThiS desire of the Indian Is no, tO be ignored bv the Skagway business man. The Indian comes here to trade. and hay ing learned Co consume foods that the whites think necessary, and 10 wear the slme style of garments, he is new ele- ment In the economics of the merchants of the citv.

Mr. l.. b. Clark. who IS great believer
I'm the cow, also made talk. showing
what they can do with cattle in connection
with their farms. and advocated the
farmers raising more cattle.
The farmers of Troup county met just
one year ago today III mass meeting, when
cotton was down below 6 cents. and pass
ed resolutions demanding cents for IL.
The Constitution the next day, under big
head lines, published Them to the Woflu'
and all over this southland those resolu-
lions were adopted verbatim in various
counties and states. Neillism was put un-
der the han, and cotton went not only 10
S, but to and even 10 cents. In May the
farmers of Troup organized the first Cot
ton Growers Protective Association,
which is now being organized all over the
south.
About seventy-five names were today
added as members of the local associa-
ton. Troup county's organization nov
numbers about three hundred of her best
and most progressive farmers.
Mr.. George W. Truitt today brought IN
twenty-five bales of cotton. and on the
first wagon, which was gayly bedecked
with United states flags, he had a large
blackboard. which had printed upon II.
Ten Cents, or to the Warehouse we Go
Cotton is only bringing cents here, and
of course. his cotton went to the ware
house. Last year Mr.. Truitt demanded
cents when it was below 6. and finally got
3 and a fraction.
