Mr.. LIQUIDS Opinion.

For time Mr.. Talbert was. quiet and
his place as critic was taken by Mr. Loud
of California. Regarding a bill to pension
at $50 month the widow of captain OF
Missouri militia who had not been mus
tered into Federal service, although he had
served 241 days, Mr.. Loud said: 1T does
not appear that this man, who rendered
the service, ever received pension
Neither has the country ever by general
law taken in the many thousand others
who rendered probably as meritcrious SER
vice as this man did. Yet you take up a
sympathetic case; the woman, you say, is
blind Unfortunately, there are many blind
people in the world. Unfortunately. thsre
are many people in the world who are

J. ]. VALENTINE SAYS HE WAS
THREATENED.
Told That He Would be Removed From
the Presidency of Wells, Fargo &
Company for His Opinions.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 15.-John
j. Valentine, President of Wells, Fargo
q Co., does not desire to press any far
Their the differences that might be drawn
from that strange and suggestive Incl
dent of the campaign related by him at
a political meeting in Oakland Satur-
day night. On that occasion, Mr.. VAL
entine told how he had received a letter
intimating that he would be removed
from the Presidency of Wells, Fargo &
Co., if he did not abandon his advocacy
of the Democratic ticket in the national
campaign.
mo-" said Mr. Valentine yesterday in
reply to a request that he give out the
letter for publication. 1T was a purely
personal letter, and 1 will not give it
out. 1 only wish to say, in order to
avoid some misconception arising from
the reports, that the letter was not
from any of our own people in the eX-
press company. 1t was, in fact, from
a banker 1 only referred to it at the
meeting, to illustrate the fact that there
is a disposition to coerCe people in this
campaign.
1T is a campaign" continued Mr..
Valentine, that has many strange fea-
lures, and none is more strange than
the desire of the working people to pay
the enormous cost of the war in the
Philippines. The cost of that war must
fall on them. 1t is a political truism
that taxes always fall-sift down-on
the working classes. They will never
benefit a nickel by the acquisition of the
islands, but they must pay it's cost. The
Spanish and Philippine wars will have
cost the American people $500 900 by
the end of the present fiscal year. next
June. 1t is the nature and law of tax
alton to fall heaviest on the great con-
Stunning classes. Now what do they get
for it?"

PROF. ROSS HONORED.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, October
l6.-Dr. Edward A. Ross, head of the
department of sociology at Stanford
University, is the recipient of a high
honor. He received word today from
Paris that the Institut International de
Soclologie had elected him an associate
member at it's annual congress. Con-
sidering the fact that there are only five
other members of this society in the
United States and that only two of
these are teachers of sociology, it will
be seen that DR.. Ross selection is a
marked distinction. 1t comes as a sur
prise to DR.. Ross, as it was both I'M
expected and unsolicited.

AFTER THE CENSUS, WHAT


The Cherokee nation, with the
consent and assistance OF the
United States, is getting ready for
allotment as fast as circumstances
will permit. The present work of
enrolment is for the purpose OF
ascertaining definitely who are cit
izens of the tribe, and ultimately
who are to share in the division OF
the estate. There are other grave
problems to be solved when the
roll of citizens is completed. Many
OF these questions must necessarl-
ly be left to the Cherokees them
selves for settlement. The rights
Of certain classes Of Cherokee cit
izens has never been definitely de-
fined, and will only be determined
at last by agreement or by the
courts. The Indians have not
agreed that the white adopted CIT
izen ia to share in the land yet, and
perhaps majority are opposed TO
dividing the estate with those who
are only citizens by adoption. The
Delaware case involving the rights
of the original registered Della
wares is in the courts and will
there be finally adjudicated. Un-
til the Delaware case is finally set.
tied in the courts there can DO no
allotment. The time and method
of division will have to be determ-
ined by agreement, and title will
have to be conferred by the In
dians themselves. There are some
things that congress cannot do, in
fact IT has done about all that can
be done in this matter without the
co-operation Of the Cherokees
themselves.

We do not believe that congress,
in the passage Of the Curtis law,
intended that any part of the lands
owned by the five civilized tribes,
should be laid out into towns be-
fore allotment, and citizen had
received an individual title there
to. A United States title granted
to u nation or collective body has
ever been looked upon by the
Cherokese, since the receipt OF the
same, to be as good in law as one
given to an individual citizen. So
believing, and looking upon con-
gress as body of honest intelli-
gent men, they have a right TO be.
lieve and contend that, congress
never meant, in the passage of the
Curtis law, nor in later one, ''
have any portion of the country
laid of into towns before allot
ment. Those interested in town
site speculation, may think anc
contend that compensation jusii
fes Che the act-no one who vii
look at the matter fairly will say
So. Nothing but the consent o
the owners Of The land will justify
such preceedure. The Cherokee
nation has already more town
