AGREEMENT.


After reviewing the failure OF the
agreement made with the Dawes com
mission Chief Bufngton says:
The Cherokees have long ago ac-
quiesced in the policy Of the United
states relating to the Indians in this
territory 1t is a matter of detail in
which we differ. and upon that We have
right to be heard, as il involves all
to us. I earnestly desire that your
interests be protected l believe It can
be better done by an agreement than
by laws Of congress. The people should
be conclliated in this matter. The coun-
try is theirs and they should be per-
mitted to take a hand in shaping the
course and guiding the direction OF the
coming change The drastic laws OF
congress. rulings of the departments
find us unprotected and in an unsatis-
factory condition in many ways, too
evident for me to mention. What we
know. what we may feel and what we
can see cannot be denied.
For many years the United states
government has had a commission in

London. Jan. Attention has been

States that has thwarted his scheme oi
wholesale slaughter, which was to in
sDire China with terror of the German
empire, while the other powers were to
be thrust into the background as of no
account. As matter of fact, however,
there is no concert of the powers now.
Russia has virtually withdrawn from il
of her own free will, preferring to make
an independent treaty with China.
According to The Daily Telegraph a
schemes being contemplated of leaving
: out the United States and France and
with them will go Russia, both united
bv the friendliest ties to America, will
scarcely work very cordially with the
stumps of concert, namely, the triple
alliance and England. This simply
means the concert is breaking up into
camps of which divisions are becoming
more marked as time goes on. 1t re-
