CHEROKEE DELEGATION.
Prospects of the Agreement
Not Hopeful.

Letters received from members
of the Cherokee delegation now in
Washington indicate the situation
is anything but hopeful with ref
erence to the ratification of the
Cherokee agreement. Indeed the
CherOkees have been told fatty
that the agreement as it passed the
national council will not even be
used a a basis for an agreement,
hut that a new one out and out
must be made on the lines Of the
Greek treaty The delegation have
alSA been informed that allotments
OF so acres to each member of the
tribe is all that will be allowed, g,
and that the value OF such allot-
men,s will then be equalized with
the land remaining.
The Dawes commission will
probably get the full amount OF
the appropriation of s640, 0,0C0 ask
ed in the beginning and have two
additional members added to their
number to expedite the work of
allotment with the Indians. There
is every indication that the work
will proceed much more rapidly
than ever before.
The Cherokee delegation will try
to reach an agreement the most
satisfactory possible, but that
theirs is a hard task is indicated
by the way they have been receiv-
ed, ~ the committees and by the
Dawes commission. A crisis con-
fronts the Cherokees, such as new
er confronted them before, and the
delegation have no easy task.

The Jumbo Eagle.

There is something peculiarly in
spring about an American Eagle. No
man-nO American surcly-can look
upon this proud kiLg Of the birds of
all the earth and not feel throb OF
admiration. The splendid poise Of
the head, the arch OF the neck. the
strong talOns, the fierce eye. all be-
speak the innate and incunquerable
nobility Of the feathered king Of
,orsst and mountain.
over IN the Jumbo store may be
seen perfect specimen, a singular
triumph of the taXidermiSt's skill. II
was shot by u hunter a few days ago
not far from town and presented to
Lud Churchill who lost no time in
sending il 10 a noted JaxidermiSt at
st. Louis, and it returned beau
tifully and artistically mounted, and
now occupies central position iu the
Jumbo Store.
The bird measured feet inches
from tip TO tip, and the form OF the
great plumed giant has been so clev-
erly preserved as to look most life
like and fresh.

Municipal Politics on Non
Partisan Lines.

From one of Rev &. NJ Snel.
don's editorials in the Topeka
Capital we clip the following:
Another thing that we can ali
do to make better city is to con-
duct our municipal politics on non-
partisan lines. 1t is a childish
thing for grown up men and wom-
en- to try to conduct the business
administration of city on par.
tisan basis. A business man WIN
ran his business on lines marked
out by partisan municipal politics
would be regarded by all sane bus
iness men as lacking the most nee
sary common sense. And yet
cities full of business men continue
to try to run the business of cities
as they never would allow their
own to be conducted. Why don't
we all get to together like sensible
men and say, THE men we need
or city offices are men who under
stand the business, who have hon
est, personal character of a hIgh
order, and fitness to do the duties
of the places to which they are
elected. " What difference does il
make whether they belong to one
party or another? What differ
eucr does it aeake1helher they
believe in gold or silver money?
Ifthey are good, honest, capable
citizens who will administer the
offices to the best interests of all
the people in the city, that is
enough. This is about all that is
necessary to say about -parti-
sanship in municipal affairs. Il tis
very simple and we shall begin to
have a better city as soon as We
act out what a majority of US al
ready believe in our hearts is the
sensible thing to do"
