cause IrOuble ana Arrests IN the Usage
Nation.
The Pawhuska Journal SAYS: A
gang Of supposed horse thieves was
arrested last Friday by deputy mar
shall Watson, assisted by w. b. Martin
and Harry Lambdi who, it is charged,
had scheme to get all the unbrand-
ed horses on the reservation had it
been carried to it's limit. They c aim
that thirteen years ago a man by the
name of Heard, living in Pawnee
county, had a chattel mortgage on 20
head of mares branded Diamond d.
The horses were turned loose on the
range and have been there increasing
year after year. Eight years ago Mr.
Heard and son, who was one of the
gang, came over here and tried to get
possession of the stock. but the cow
boys made things rather unpleasant
for them.
The party consisted of Dan and Joe
Brown, Dan Heard and Pearl Rogers.
The latter is well known in Pawhuska.
They have been operating in various
parts of the reservation for some time,
but the authorities were unable to get
sufficient evidence against them TO
make all arrest. They were brought
before Commissioner Yates Saturday
morning and had their preliminary
hearing. The evidence tended to show
that they had in their possession n
horses that did not belong to them;
that they had tried to round up all the
unbranded horses they could find on
the range, and that they had branded
some Of the young horses. The de-
PENDANTS were bound over to The Paw
nee district court and their bonds fixed
At $500 each. This they were unable
to give and they were consequently
escorted to Pawnee by Deputy Marshal
Walton and his posse.

..REyETOIEyr ASSIMILATION"

President Mckinley is quite clever
in devising catchy phrases, and when
he invented benevolent assimilation"
he did something quite equal to Gii-
bert's best quips in the 'Mikado.' y
Benevolent assimilation" sounds
well, but it does not work well.
Soldiers writing home from Manila
fail to appreciate the presidents hu
NOR and give painful regard to dis
agreeable facts One of the soldiers,
in letter printed in the Times
Journal, of Oklahoma City, says
"It needed no one TO tell the guard
what should be done. However, the
command was given by Captain Sig
worth. Bang went the rifle Of every
guard, and in two minutes twenty
seven out of the band of twenty nine
treacherous beings were shot. The
other two escaped. The insurgent
colonel and his wife were taken out OF
their house at the suggestion of Lieu
tenant Hammond and the place was
consigned 70 the flames. By this time
Lieutenant FIazier was on the scene,
and he took initiative in the further
devastation of the insurgent village.
"The destruction of the town was
complete. and even though Tinub's is
still on the map, | assure you that no
such place in reality now exists, and
the people of the treacherous hole will
long remember the day OF it's 5lotting
cut"
How is that for picture of"benevo-
lent assimilation?" War is serious
and has no cognate relation to"benev-
olent assimilation. President McKin'
ley would do well to drop the making
ing of fine phrases and to devote his
mind considering something realy"oe
nevolent" looking toward cessation
of war.

They laughed him to scorn and do.
clared that in all the land Little ln1in
could find no squaw. But, determined
to follow the advice of the good spirit.
Little Injin now left his people. and
he journeyed to valley far in the
east. where he met an Indian Girl who
became his squaw. Then came o
papoose to Little Injln. and he grew
and he grew. until he was over six
feet tall. and had the strength OF bear
and the fieetness of the deer. All tho
other Indians In the valley became
afraid OF him. ard he was soon known
far and wide as n great hunter and .
mighty man when at war.
Then the good spirit again called on
Little Injin and said to him:
Little InJ!n. you 60 now back to
your people. Take your son. the big
Injin. and tell him to call all his
braves In the valley and 20 with you
with tbelr bows and arrows. their
beads and war paint. to aght the In

The Indians of the valley marched

and he warned him and his people.

The next day n great battle was

In the mountains west OF the blS
gorge lived the tribe OF Cappa Tom.
and the chialtain of the tribe. Singing

who were tall and 1.-THE and strong
and mighty huntsmeR: and he was
proud OF the buxom squaws and tho
fat papooses In the mountain camp.
No enemy In the region for hundred
leagues about dared give battle to
Singing Water. for the fame OF his
braves had spread even to the great
forest on the north and the marsh
lands on the south
Once upon time. so the legend
says. Singing Water found among the
children In the tepees a poor little
papoose. n shrunkcn diminutiye dwarf
child. OF whom the othe. Indian boys
made sport and forbade him their
amusement: SO Little injIn" would
sit cross-lesscd apart from his fellows.
and watch them nj play.
Chief Singing Water sent for him

Ing. little figure before him he 1runtcd

with a set. htern face and an angry
voice he dared answer Singing Water.

no fight: Little Injin no hunt: only
grind aeorns and make fires for squaw.
Little injin no more stay with you:
Little Injin so far of: you sec Little

He hobbiei away from the presence
of Singing Water. and that night he
left tho camp. and through the long
hours until the dawn of another day
he iimpcd along the path tha, led to
nowhere in particular. by the lish,
of the moon he crossed the creeks and
the small streams. and the stars point.
ed him a way over the hills and
through the valleys.
Finally Little injin reached the sum

and sore. and could not cat the bcr-

mountain slope. he could not sleep. for
his eyes would constantly fii with

falling on his mocrasins.
Then good spirit came on the
mountain top. and touched him light
iy on the shoulder. 1t was like a
woman's touch-liko his mothers, back
in the land Of Singing Water.
Little Injin. what for you cry7''
said the good spirit; and the lad hid
his face in fright and his sobs only

Little Injin dried his tears and be-
tween his sobs he said:

Little Iniin: he say mo too little: he
say me too sick: he say me too crook

"Bnt Little iriin must 30 back TO his
people" said the good spirit: you
must speak 10 them and tell the chief
and his braves that YOU are going far
away to live in big valley. where you
will find pretty suuaw. Then some
years more papoose will come. and h.
will grow big and strong. Then he
will go hack to your people. and mike
