much wanted prosperity is on

He stated the democrats and

gether by ne&.issues, the chief
of which is imperialism. The
colonial pslicy would cause cor
ruption and special privileges,
and these mean longer hours and
harder work for toilers.
The rep hlican policy nalifies
every principle of the declaration
of independence, and -robs the
nation of moral prestige. Its
supporters say the world would
laugh if we gave the Filipinos
their liberty. Yes kings and
aristocrats, all those who despise
humble folks would laugh, but
let the nation spurn bribes, pow:
er, wealth, and the oppressed in
every land will see our flag and
hope for their own deliverance
and breath a prayer for the safe

VIII Enforce Tribal Tax Payment

Will EnfOrce Tribal lax Payment.
South McAlester, I. t., Aug. 22.-
Jack Ellis, captain Of the United
States Indian police. left this after
noon for the Ohickasaw Nation to
enforce the payment Of the Chicka-
saw tribal tax. He will be joined by
the special officer for the Chicka-
saw nation, X. l. Resm.
The collection OF the taxes has
been postponed for some time, ow-
ing to the fact that the department
was considering Just how It would
proceed to enforce payment. Some
weeks ago a ruling was issued by the
secretary of the interior holding
absolutely that the tax must be paid.
The secretary has wired prominent
persons in several towns in the
Cnickasaw nation that the tax must
be paid and unless payment was
made when demanded by the col:
Iectors election would certainly fol-
low. The collectors will now pro-
ceed and IL any refuse to pay they
will be promptly removed from the
Territory. One man was removed
from the Choctaw nation yesterday

Chief T. M. Burlington yesterday
received a letter from L. B. Bell
al Washington which stated that
the prospect for the early ratifica-
ton of the Cherokee treaty is
hopeful. A meeting with the
Joint Indian committees was held
Friday, which was quite pacific
throughout, and it is confidently
believed the treaty will be taken
up without delay and ratified.
The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1900-05-14

If the Cherokee treaty is ratified
by congress, which now seems to be
an assured fact, it should be as it
came from the commission who
made it, or with such slight chang
es as would not affect it before the
people themselvs when they come
to vote upon it. There is already
a good deal of opposition to the
treaty a. it stands, and if Il should
be further loaded up with object
ionable features it would certainly
fail here.
