HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
Townsend'S Decision IS Not
Without Precedent.

EultOr CnltltalHE-l ne IuliuB VI
Judge Townsend in reference to
the Chickasaw lease cases is not
altogether without precedent.
When the Shawnses were driven
out of Illinois, and their beautiful
lands there turned,over into the
hards Of the white settlers, they
were setued by the government
upon delightful piece Of territory
lying against the southwest bank
of the Missouri river near the site
upon said stream which has since
become known as Kansas City.
Many OF these Indians-all indeed
except the Black Bob band-by
means Of vehement persuasion,
were induced to take each his quo
ia share of the land in severalty;
so they did. Not long after this
BLEEDING Kansas kicked her
way into the UnioH. Emigration
began to flow into the new state,
and the Indians were no time in
finding themselves overrun by a
white poprlation Then began
the struggle for these Indian
homes. The Indian allottee was
generally approached by one OF
these push and drive new corners,
when something like the following
colloguy would take place.
Look here. my friend, how
much do you make on this nice
land Of yours, one year wita an
other?"
20. dun no; feed clcthe wife
child and myself; that all =
you have to work pretty hard,
to do even that. don't you2'
Eyes, work heap hard"
"Well now, look here; il you
will let me come onto this land OF
yours and improve ii, and culti-
vate it, and have what can make
off Of il | wiltpay you annually,
by way of rental, five times as
much as you are getting off OF 1t
by constant hard labor. So you
see you can then go and lie down
in the shade, smoke your pipe and
live easy"
"That's good, says the Indian,
.'I'll do it, come on
The white man now rolls in up
Oh the Indians premises with
briming wagons, spans Of sleek,
gigantic mules, glisteniDg plow-
shares. and a wilderness of new
made farm machinery. Soon the
long lines Of fencing are seen
worming themselves out In every
direction, until the whole mellow
tract is sectionized into lots suit
able for such varied culture as
sorts with the ambition of the new
occupant. A big red barn lifts It's
It's broad gables into the skies,
and covers a capacious space upon
the ground with its terraced apart
menis; and over this ever flap the
wings Of gigantic windmill
beckoning up The pure cold water
from The bottom Of the deep we'll,
and sending it of through a con-

OLD CUSTOMS III VOGUE.
south Carolina Legislators sim Insist
on the Pomp and Ceremony
of the Early Days.


The South Carolina legislature and
courts still maintain some Of The pic
turesque English forms and customs
unknown in the younger states and
long since discarded BY others Of the
IS Originals"
Even her, however. some Of the NV
judges are getting lax in their require
ments and do not insist on the pomp
and ceremony. The sheriff still calls
at the judges hotel, escorts him to the
courthouse, and accompanies him back
TO his lodging place when court takes
a recess, but the old judges required
that the escort wear a cooked hat
adorned with a flowing black ostrich
plume, and that he carry sword at the
carry" The small boys on the streets
were edited by this solemn procession
four times a day during court week.
The reform" judges elected in the last
few years have not encouraged this dis
play. At convention OF judges Just
held, however. rule was made requir-
ing all gentlemen Of the bar and court
officials to appear in black habits" and
making 1t the duty of the sheriff to en-
force the same. All the judges wear
flowing black gowns.
The house of representatives does not
consider itself properly constituted un-
til the great mace is suspended on the
face of the speakers desk, over the
heads OF the reporters. and the same
holds good as TO the four-foot silver
sword in the senate. Recently when
the sergeant-at-arms had omitted to
hang the mace in the house the proceed
ings were stopped by a member who
called attention to the absence of the
emblem. and a suspension was had
while the mace was being produced.
On occasions where there are joint as
semblies. and especially at Inaugural
tions. the sergeanis-at-arms. the one
bearing the mace. the other the sword,
head the procession from the senate
chamber to the house Of representa-
tives. The speaker Of the house and
president Of the senate follow immedi-
ately after those officials in rich purple
and black silk and velvet gowns.-Chi-

tiguous enclosures to nourish the
great herds OF horses, cattle, hogs
and flocks Of sheep that luxurate
upon the green herbage. In a
word, the place is made, from year
to year, to wear the cheerful ap-
pearance of prosperity and to hum
perpetually the eolean music Of
rural felicity.
Now this is a good white man.
He always pays up his five-told
rental with the utmost punctuality;
and the Indian landlord is happy
in his deal But there came a
moment in the current Of time
when this Indian aIattee wanted
to come home; he wanted possess
sion Of his premises Upon de-
mand to this effect being made,
30 yes," says the white man, 81
am ready to surrender possession
to you at any tine; yet | cannot
do SO until you first pay me Tor
these valuable improvements
which | have put upon your place;
their aggregate cost is not less
than $4,000. Pay me this sum and
| will retire at once"
Now this Indian never had as
much as $4,000 in his life, and
never even hoped to have. From
the Indians standpoint, it was a
beat out Of his farm, for he could
never pay the money.
A lawyer now appears upon the
scene like a good Samaritan, and
advises this Irdian to bring suit
for the possession Of his property,
in the u S. cour., in and for the
state of Kansas; it is done, and
after year Oh two has been spent
in adjusting the technalities of the
law. the case comes on tor trial.
The facts are given to the court;
winnowed and sifIed down TO the
pure grain, and then the judge,
brinl full of henevolence, as well
as justice, for this poor ward Of
the nation, delivered himself in
form somewhat like this: This
case, gentlemen, in the light of the
facts before the court is plain and
unmistakable. The plaintiff now
stands at this bar in an attitude
which appeals powerfully to the
conscience, as well as the justice,
Of oar enlightened Jurisprudence.
| deem TO be the sacred duty OF
this court to see that these unlet-
tered and unsophisticated wards
of the nation are protected against
the rapacity OF their more entelii-
gent and capable brethren. This
plaintiff must have judgement for
the possession Of his premises; let
execution be stayed, however, un-
Ill the defendant has received in
use and occupation the value Of
hisimprovements assessed at the
sum of SO, ,000.'
The Indian finally compromises
the matter with his redoublable
tenant'and gives him deed to the
place for mere nominal sum and
gives up the hopeless struggle.
Judge Townsend's ruling in the
Chickasaw lease cases is not with
out precedent.
In this, and many other ways
equally ingenious, the Shawnees
we're beaten out of their allotmenss
and the close Of the late war found
them as homeless as a colony OF
dislodged potato beetles, slrolling
upon the face OF the earth without
a place to wake by day or sleep bv

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1900-08-01

West Point correspondent New York
Herald: Residents of Rugertown, a
suburb az the post, are interested in
a weird concert which was given one
night this week in the parlor Of the
home Of Andrew Kuhn. a private of
the army service detachment. The
performance did not begin until just
as the old clock in the tower Of the
academic building had struck the hour
of midnight, the artist was invisible,
and ghostly sonatas. symphonies and
the like were rendered in wonderful
style. 1t seems that Kuhn. who is an
old resident Of the post, had retired
with his family for the night, when
they were aroused by very loud and
thrilling piano playing. The sound
seemed to be coming from the parlor.
Upon their entering the room they
found 1t quite deserted. The piano lid
was closed, but some invisible agency
was sounding the keys. They were
badly frightened. 1t might have been
a cat, but the piano was closed, or it
might have been rats nibbling the
strings, but the strings have been
found to be uninjured.

populist credit in considering what has
been accomplished does not understand
the forces that have been at work.
For several years we have been united.
Not because the platforms of the par
ties were identical, not because one
party stood for all the things advocat-
ed by the other but because we agree
on the things that we know to be di-
rectly in front of US.
IF cooperation was wise in 1896,
then it is more so today. Has the re-
publican party reformed since 1896,
that we should be more ready to trust
it now than then? 1t openly advo-
Gates things today that we warned the
country against then, but for which
the republicans then would not accept
the responsibility. We do not want
anybody to misunderstood the situa-
ton. No one believes that the silver
republicans, populists and democrats
stand just together on every question
for which they are contending. When
they act together now it is when the
majority Of each can agree on the
most important questions at issue,
They can postpone action on the less
important things on which they do not
agree.-W. ]. Bryan at Omaha, before
