Special Dispatch to the Intelligence.
WASHINGTON, July B.-capt Harry
Taylor's annual report to the chief of err
gtneers states that active operations o..
the Pend dOreiile river weref carried on
during part OF August and all Of Septem-
Der, October. November and part OF
December. 1899. The work consisted In
removing certain rocky points. which con-
tracted the river channel to such an ex-
tent as to cause violent currents and
whirlpools. rendering navigation practi-
caly impossible. During the year 1850
cubic yards OF rock were removed. On
July l, 1889. there was an unexpended bal
ance of $4,000. and on June 50. 1900 there
had been expended during the fiscal year
the amount of IS. 49, H. leaving on July !.
1900, an available balance unexpended OF

900 for the completion Of the existing pro-
1ect.

The miners below the canyon seem 10 be
of the opinion that Il would not pay to
ship ore as II comes from the mines, and
that operations on large scale viii not

localities only prospecting Is now being
done, the owners awaiting the advent OF

BOND MONEY AND SCHOOLS.
.;..;.;..s.I.-s.3..*
Lawyer J. Mon. Johnson Gives Ills
Opinion on our Bond Issue as
Applied to School Purposes,

Applied 70 OCnoOI + uTpoSeS,
legislature, recorded in Chapt. 1874
Private Laws Of 1897, must see
that the money arising from the
bond issue is separate and dis
tinct fund from that proposed to
be raised from the special school
tax; yet we see in Sec. Sc they are
connected, so far as to direct that
no part OF the proceeds Of the
bonds shall be expended in the
cause of school grounds, buildings,
ETC., ifa majority Of the qualified
voters vote against schools" on
the school tax question. Notice
the language. Now a majority of
the qualified voters did not vote
against schools. The fact is, they
did not vote at all on this question.
The question naturally arises,
what is the legal effect Of silence
in an election, or no election at
all? We who live under consti-
tutional government have a ght
to expect that no new laws shall
be made without our aid or con-
sent, or that OF our representatives
and no matter how much a reform
measure is discussed and ayitated,
no change is actually made in the
order Of things without the voice
of the people. A failure, then, to
submit the school tax toa vote of
the people, is, in reality, the same
as if the people had voted "no
Schools, and your Board must
apply the proceeds Of the bond-
entirely to the other purposes for
which it was originally intended
in the act.
1t is evident that the idea of the
lawmakers in conlitinning part
of the proceeds ofthe bonds to the
building of school houses, on Il e
event of voting the school tax, WAS
that if the school tax were not vot-
ed. costly school buildings would
not be needed, as there would be
no available funds to maintain
schools of the kind contemplated
in the act.
10 sum the matter up in a nut
shell: The special school tax must
be voted before 1t can be coll ected
This was not done.

A COURAGEOUS JUDGE.

Now comes again the intelli-
gence from Washington that Judge
John r. Thomas is to be removed
from Office on account Of his re-
cent decision restraining the town
site board OF Muskogee from SELL
ing townlots under the Curtis act.
The talk of removal of Judge
Thomas has been INDUCED in be-
tore but he is still judge, and still
has the courage TO express himself
vigorously when called upon to do
so in an official capacity. 1t were
well to allow the higher courts the
privilege of passing upon the
judges utteranoe on the bench.
Until the supreme court Of the
United States reverses him il is
hardly within the province Of the
interior department to compass his
removal. When the cob webs
have been brushed from the eyes
Of congress and the departments it
will be seen that Thomas is right
in the main and the way to apply
the needed remedy in this country
is by intelligent legislation, and
not by such legislative monstrosi-
ties as the Curtis act Why should
the interior department not be re.
strained from selling Indian land
without the consent OF the Indians7
What would such sale amount to
in the end, save troublesome aud
long drawn out litigation. Jup-
pose Judge Thomas does say that

consliiutional2 May il not prove

In the recent instance Of deci.
sions rendered in the Indian Ter.
ritory by Judges Gill and Thomas,
who we're so unfortunate as to in
cur the displeasure Of the execu-
tive department Of the United
States government by holding and
expressing views Of law contrary
to those held in Washington, there
is an illustration Of the arrogance
Of the new imperialist spirit which
will not be lost on the American
people.
Judge ellis decision was in the
tribal tax case heard al Viniia, in
which be rules that officers of the
interior department be restrained
from collecting the tribal taxes in
the Cherokee nation. United
States Attorney General Griggs, II
is said, entertains a contrary view,
believing that the officers Of the
government, acting on an Indian
reservation, hold the same status
as military authorities carrying
out an executive order, and that
they are therefore not amenable to
a restraining oider issued by a
court. II the secretary Of the in
terror decides upon the enforce
ment Of this tax, ii is stated, be
may under Mr.. Griggs' ruling pro.
ceed to its collection even TO the
length of employing the military.
In the case OF Federal Judge
Thomas, who has enraged the Of
ficials Of the interior department
by restraining the townsite board
Of Muskogee from selling town lots
as provided by the Curtis law, the
reports tell us that the indignation
Of the interior department and the
department OF justice is so great
that a movement has been begun
to remove Judge Thomas from Of
fee. Strong pressure is being
brought to bear to this end, it il
stated, and the indications poinI
to an early termination of Judge
Thomas judicial career in the In.
dian Territory.
All this looks remarkably like
an effort on the part Of the exeou
tive department Of the government
to overawe judicial officers who
have the moral courage to express
their convictions on the law or tC
give redress against the arbitrary
exactions Of the agents of the de-
partment. AS an instance OF inn
perialism right at home it is some
what startling to thoughtful per
sons. II the imperialist spirit hal
grown to such proportions in thiI
country as to lead the administra
ton to ignore the traditional 10
dependence Of the judiciary, wha
may not be the high-handed cours,
of our government in the "ioreigI
possessions" Of the United States

There are great many good
people in vinila that don't believe
the presence Of an armed force Of
deputy marshals on The strsess Of
this city is necessary. II doesn't
always add to the personal beauty
Of man to have a forty FIVE swung
TO his anatomy either. There are
other reasons for disarmament but
these two are sufficient. Common
decency would dictate that when
of duty they be laid off. There
has not been an occasion for firing
n shot at a human being in Vinita
lately, aud most Of the escapes Of
prisoners in other years have been
from men loaded down with pis.
tolls.

The Wife Saved It.

The story is going the rounds
that when Rudyard Kipling had
written The Recessional," (" which
the editor of the London Times
declared to be the greatest poem
written in the nineteenth century,
and which the whole world has re.
ceived as one of the greatest pieces
Of work in our time, he was so de.
pressed by its shortcomings that
he threw the first rough copy into
the wastepaper basket. But Mrs.
Kipling has learned her husband
pretty we'll, and so she rescued IL.
But for Mrs. Kipling we should
have had no "Recessionall" Many
great deed that has lifted hu.
munity upward has been nourished
and saved from defeat by the

The presence in Vinita Of a
colored man who has just com.
pleted sentence for attempted
assault upon two white girls in the
very heart Of the city only few
months ago is peculiarly disgust
ing to the average citizen of this
good town. 1t may be that tech.
nically speaking, the crime has
been expiated, aud the law ss,is-
fed, but the man who gets of
without a broken neck from such a
charge should consider himself
fortunate. The men Of vinita can
and will protect their wives and
daughters from the foul touch OF
the rapesl, be he white, or black
drunk or sober.
