est Of American newspapers. 1t
has correspondents everywhere

ly Republican in politics, but is,
above all, a newspaper, and ought
to be in every home during the
important presidential campaign
of 1900. The price by mail, daily,
including Sunday, is six dollars
per year. Daily, without Sunday,
four dollars per year. Sunday
only, two dollars per year. Week
ly, issued in semi-weekly sections,

almost equal to the average daily

also a great variety of instructive
and interesting reading matter for
every member of the family.

Book-Loving children.

A child's literary life is a secret no
adult can ever wholly penetrate, says
the Woman's Home Companion. But
when an enthusiastic temperament
takes books as intimate companions
there is reason for watching the result
with anxiety. What is read and thought
by day enters into dreams, works into
the deepest recesses OF our being, and
becomes part Of our brain itself. II
child talks seldom Of what he reads,
he thinks the more. Secretiveness
sometimes hides q turbulent mental
activity. and shy exterior can con-
ceal strange broodings. But an om-
niverous taste, which is very COM
mon, should not be left without some
subtle, unobtrusive guidance. Most
Of us who have lived much with books
are Influenced today more than we
should probably like TO acknowledge
by "reminiscences Of our childish liter
ary life.

DAWES COMMISSION.
Complete and Comprehen-
sive Report,

The sixth annual report of the
Dawes commission to the secretary
of the interior for the last fiscal
year is just received from Wash
ington. The report is the most
comprehensive one yet made and
contains pretty complete history
of the progress Of the work Of the
commission In the Indian Terrific
ry. II contains various maps. and
pictures OF prominent people, as
well as picturesque scenery in the
territory. With reference to the
enrolment Of Cherokees the re-
port has the following;
"rhe enrolment of Cherokees
has not yet been reached, so press
ing and voluminous has been the
work in the other nations. The
making Of rolls In the Cherokee
nation is likely to be attended with
even more difficulty than has thus
far been experienced in the other
nations, owing to the greater num-
Der Of spurious claimants and to
the requirements Of the law with
reference to the enrolment Of
Cherokee freedmen. The act Of
June 2S, 1898 (Appendix No. /, p.
31), provides that rolls in the
Cherokee nation shall be made as
follows:
"'Sec. 81. That in making rolls
of citizenship Of the five tribes, as
required by law, the commission
to the five civilized tribes is au-
thorized and directed to take the
roll Of Cherokee citizens of 1880
(not including ireedmen) as the
only roll intended to be confirmed
by this and preceding acts of con-
gress, and to enroll all persons
now living whose names aie found
on said roll, and all descendants
born since the date of said roll to
persons whose names are found
thereon; and all persons who have
been enrolled by the tribal author
tiles who have heretofore made
permanent settlement in the Cher
okse nation whose parents, by |
reason of their Cherokee blood,
have been lawfully admitted to
citizenship by the tribal authcri-
ties, and who were minors when
their parents were so admit
ted, and they shall investi-
gate the right OF all other per.
sons whose names are found on
any other rolls and omit all such
as may have been placed thereon
by fraud or without authority Of
law, enrolling such as may have
awful right thereto, and their de-
born since such rolls
we're made, with such intermarried
white persons as may be entitled
10 citizenship under Cherokee
avs.
"It shall make roll Of Cherokee
reedmen in strict compliance with
he decree Of the court Of claims
endered the Srd day Of February,
