Corporation Counsel Whalen volunteered
an opinion Yesterday upon tho disputed
point as to the right OF policemen and
firemen TO register and vote from station
and engine houses. Thu question has
been brought up by the contention OF Supt
McCullagh that no man can register and
vote except from his domicile, and that

LEADER IN Cabs or Express WAGONS Come
for Their ''Bit." Gathered In From
Those whose Convenience or Lib
erty Depends on = Tammany Victory.
Early yesterday morning the Squire
planted himself behind a big table in the
Office Of the Executive Committee OF Tam
many Hall at the Fourteenth street Wig
wam, and began to receive the tenants. All
OF the tenants had been told that the Squire
was going to hold tho reception and they
were all on hand to assist him
They came early In the morning in cabs
and carriages, and zach Of them looked
happy as he entered the rooms and happier
as he caught sight OF the Squire at the
table.
Before the Squire was a big pile Of bun
dies, varying In size, non smaller thar a
cheese and some Of them not as large as a
small fathouse. Each bundle bore a num-
Der. and as each Of h leaders Of the ten
antry came along he was told to take away
the bundle that bore the number Of his dis
trict.
The leaders smiled and smiled, and hustled
to their cabs. When two Of them met they
Rrinned at each other.

would be the reply. The campaign fund
that the Squire has been gathering IN from
the poolroom men and the dive keepers
and the officeholders and all Of the others
whose hope Is In the Tammany ticket was
being distributed. No one would tell what
the Squire was giving to the ariou dis
tricts. Some got more than others. Some
Of tho leaders got so much hat they will
live on pie and cake for a long time,
All came in cabs or in express wagons.
Whispering Larry Delmour watched the
distribu ton of the money. Il was given
90 the leaders behind closed doors. An
armed guard was at the door.
1t was declared that tho amount that
was given out TO the leaders last evening
was not less han s4s2 ,oOo-more than
$500 a district and that the exact amount
was known only to the Squire. The money
will be spent In the way that II will do the
most good for the Tammany ticket, accord
ing TO the ideas of the leaders. The usual
number of watchers and workers will be
hired and will be placed about the polling
places in every district, and all Of them
will be well paid for their work, which In
cludes their vote. Then there are other
ways in which money can be spent and
IL will be used in all the ways That seem
TO the leaders wise. No one is to 20 hungry.
The Squire told all hands that II they needed
any moro and could convince him that
they had legitimate use for 1t. he would
be glad to give it TO them.

An Indian Republic.

In the June Wpman's Home Com
panion Mr.. Landon knight gives the
following interesting account OF a unique
republic in North Carolina:
Every one. of course, knows of the
little republics Of Europe, but very few
realize that in the United States there
is a country that is larger. Weather
and more populous than San Marine,
Gaust and Monico combined. Those do
minions are not. nor indeed is the Unit
ed States, more thoroughly republican
than is this little country nesting among
the mountains of western North Caro-
lima.
There are legends and traditions
which may indicate that ages beyond the
ken of the historians vision. and when
the ancestors of the princes and poten-
tates of the world of to-day We're dwell
ing in caves like wild beasts and were
subsisting on shell fish and acorns. these
people were the lords of an ancient civ
ilization. But. however that may be,
It is certain that these people--the Cher
okee Indians-were, when first discovered
by the white man. the most civilized Of
any of the aborigines on the North
American continent, with the exception
of the Aztecs and Toltecs Of Mexico
Oglethorpe and his colonists found them
inhabiting a magnifcently beautiful and
fertile section of the country. embracing
what is now northern Georgia. southern
Tennessee and western North Carolina.
They received him as brother, and
bade him take as much of thec lands as
he and his people might need. Writing
of them to Wesley. he said 1T is strange
how used they are in the ways Of kind
ness and civility: but most do I marvel
at their government, which of truth is
not unlike our own in some particulars
With truth he might have gone further
ard said that in many things there were
points, of superiority in their favor over
the British government of that day. For
with them the idea of kngship and a
nobility with their attendant privileges
had never found Judgment, but their
theory of government was democratic.

MEANING OF THE NUMBERS,
Explanation Of the Brass Plates on All
the Doors Of the White House.

The employees of the white house are
unable to give any information about the
small brass plates, containing numbers,
that are noticed on all the outer and
hallway doors at the executive mansion.
The general supposition, and probably
the correct one, is that the rooms were
numbered merely for the benefit Of the
housekeepers Of presidents in tn olden
days, says the Washington Star. In
those days the housekeepers in large
mansions carried around with them huge
punches of keys numbered to fit certain
rooms with corresponding numbers. In
these modern days the front door of the
White House is not locked. and If the
stewart should look around for keys he
would probably not find half of those
formerly in use. Big policemen are about
the only doors at the executive mansion.
They guard the main doors at all hours
Of the day and night. and there Is no
need to close and lock the inner doors.
Before President Lincoln's time police
men were rare at the presidents home,
and when all the clerks and servants had
gone home at night the housekeeper went
around ad carefully locked all the doors
inside and outside except to rooms oc-
cupied by those going in and coming
to look at the numbers on the keys and
doors SO that the keys and locks would
correspond.
It is not known how many rooms were
originally in the building, as some small
rooms have been made into larger ones.
The numbers on the doors, however, run
to 81. That is the number on the room
used by Secretary Cortelyou's executive
force OF clerks Right across the hall is
No. so, occupied by Col. Montgomery
as the telegraph room, and No. ~ is Sec
rotary Cortelpou's room, and No. 4S. OPP
posite, is nnow used for the reception
of such visitors as thhe president intends
to see and talk with. No. 46 is the presi-
dents own room. also the cabinet room.
There is on this door, on little piece OF
brass, another number. On No. 90 is
. ana on No. 81 Is /. All the doors seem
to have been numbered twice. The ut
tie brass plates are SO small as hardly to
