The public road question looms
up in Benton County, and like the
ghost, made famous by Shakes
pearean drama, it will not down
until we have better roads This
is encouraging. Bad roads have
been a serious drawback to the
county, and the question of good
roads should be vigorously pushed
by all believers in the development
Of our county. The increase in the
rate Of taxation would be insignifi-
cant compared to the great benefits
that would be derived. The coun-
ty does not owe dollar, and now
is the time to inaugurate a good
roads movement. 1t is thought by
those who have studied the ques.
ton that the rate Of taxation woulC
not have to be increased from the
present rate upon an issue Of $50,
900 in bonds. BY all means, lets
gravel our roads at least the prin
cipal ones that lead to Camden.

which to shape the policy OF a hu-
man government in this upper
world Of intelligence and cultured
conscience? Gods plan is the best
by all odds. No human govern
ment is to be trusted with implicit
faith which is not willing, in imi-
tation Of the Divine, to bond the
very mudsills OF its own existence
for the punctual performance Of its
undertakings. And here We are
not unwilling to make all due al
lowance for the unfortunate frailty
of human nature. 1t is possible,
nay only too likely, that nation,
through the imperfection Of its
finite forecast, may some time en-
ter into treaty obligations which
prove to be insusceptible of per-
formance, or the discharge of
which may be attended With immi-
nent danger to its own existence.
In such cases the magnanimity of
mankind is disposed to wink at
successful repudiation, but never
to justify it. To meet emergen-
cies OF this kind, the wisdom OF
human law has devised, as a der
nier resort, most admirable ex-
pedient. While humane regard
for the misadventure Of the de-
faulting party will decline in the
first place to charge his failure to
a dishonest design, it does so only
on condition that be will return
the consideration which he has re-
ceived by virtue Of his agreement;
or that, in case such restoration be
impossible, he answers the injured
party in suitable damages. This
is the rule which has been estab
lished by immemorial usage as be-
tween man and man; and there is
no valid reason why it should not
be observed in dealings between
the nation and individuals, as well
as between nation and nation.
By means of its various treaty
agreements with the Cherokee peo.
pie, the United States has, from
time to time, obtained from them
vast scopes Of valuable territory;
for these lands it agreed to pay
them certain stipulated sums of
money, over 100000 of which
till this day remains unpaid. In
addition to this money considera-
tion, it also granted them many
valuable and gratifying franchises.
But congress now interferes and
under the plea Of public neces-
sity," repudiates all these ooliga-
tions without offering to return the
consideration received, or in any
way to make amends to these In
dians for the damage done. Pure,
white, steam-laundried justice, and
sky-clear honor, require that, in
case these Indian treaties should |
be rendered by "public neoessi-
ties" unsusceptible of observance
on part of the United States, the
Cherokees, as required by the laws
Of both God and man, should be
properly indemnifed at the hands
of the government.

VIOLATED TREATIES.
Governments Disregard of
Solemn Obligations.

Breckenridge is quoted as having
said, "Treaties have been abol.
ished time and again, whenever
public necessities have demanded
it, and history will repeat itself in
this instance. This keen n-edged
utterance on part Of Mr.. Brecken.
ridge purports to have been made
in the midst of late interview
had with him by the Wagner Rec
ord reporter in reference to Indian
Territory matters, and, among
other things, the right of congress
to abrogate and ignore the govern
ment's solemn treaties with Indian
tribes.
The idea lying at the bottom of
these words of the honorable COM
missioner-the defiant violation of
plighted faith--is nothing at all
new under the sun. The devil
made an engagement with the wo-
man that, If she would consent to
eat the interdicted fruit, he would
see that she should not die, but
become an actual goddess and live
forever in independent and unlim-
tied happiness. But no sooner
had he attained his purpose than
he complaisantly notified her that
his sooty kingdom had been sud-
denly betided by certain class of
s'public necessities" which rem
dered it inconvenient, nay counter
to the ''public interests" of his in
fernal dominions, to carry out his
agreement. Accordingly he knav-
ishly argued that there was moth
ing morally wrong in what he was
intending to do; that these same
"public necessities" had fully JUS
tilted the act, and sanctified the
perfdy Re then announced to
her his formal reputation of his
stipulated obligation, and slUnk
away leaving the woman to settle
the account alone; and we all
know the result.
Now nobody but the devil, or
som body full of him, could ever
feel disposed to treat an innocent,
confding woman, or any other
helpless, trusting contracting party,
in so conscienceless a manner.
About the same time, God alec
made an agreement with the wo-
man; and his promise, after test
Of six thousand years, has never
failed. Indeed we are assured by
divine authority that the heavens
shall rush, and be smashed into
indiscriminste ruin, and the earth
be ground to powder and sifted in
to nonentity, rather than the least
iot or title Of this solemn compact
shall fail Of fulfillment. And this,
now, is business. What a contrast
here between the spirit Of this en-
gagement and OF that Of the devill
God, from Whom we ourselves de-
rive our instructive respect for the
sacredDess Of contracts, never
pleads subterfuges, such as "pub-
lie necessities" in order to avoid
performance; be had rather see
the underplnning OF MS own uni
versal kingdom slide, than have
his word to a poor ouicast woman
prove false.
Now, with this divine example
plainly in view, commencing itself
so powerfully TO the moral sense.
