ONE SIDE OF THE QUESTION.
Secretary OF the Interior Proceeding
Under Act OF Congress.

InOcr ACt VI NOuEtSoSs
With the dismissal of B. S.
Smiser comes the altogether novel
plan of the secretary of the lnte-
rior to interfere with the Indian
tribes in the appraisement of town
site property.
Mr.. Smiser was dismissed for
refusing to perform his duties un'
der the provisions Of the act Of
congress approved May 81. The
act gave the secretary of the in
terror the power where, in his judg'
ment, the public interests would
be best subseved to appoint in the
Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek or
Cherokee nations a separate town.
site commission for any town, in
which event as to that town such
local commission may exercise the
same authority and perform the
same duties which would otherwise
devolve upon the commission for
that nation. II also gave the secre.
tary of the interior the power to re-
move for good cause any member of
any townsite commission, tribal or
local. in any of said nations.
With the creation and subse-
quent passage of the act the tribes
protested vigorously. They con-
tended that it was violation of
the sacred treaty known as the
Atoka agreement, and under
which the original townsite com
mission was created. Smiser
was appointed Indian commits
ioner under the Atoka agreement.
The amendment of May 81 les
sened the power of the tribal gov
ernment. 1t was passed to expe-
dite the townsite work and the
tribes at once said that they would
recognize no treaty other than the
Atoka agreement which they
claimed was the very bone aud
sinew of their rights. The treaty
gave new life to the tribal govern
ment.
There was an apparent contra
diction in the Atoka agreement and
the act of May 81. The tribes
could not avail themselves until
the opportunity presented itself.
First came the order to the Indian
representative of the townsite COM
mission in the Choctaw nation from
the tribal government not to ap'
praise townsite property followed
by like order from the chief ex-
ecutive of the Chickasaw nation to
their Representatives
New complications will be added
to the already complicated townsite
muddle.
1t remains TO be seen what will
be the result in the NATTER
Capital.

Mr.. Bryan- spoke upon "Fusion,.' urg-

words:
"Fusion, as we have had it in Nebras-
ka, is cooperation between the reform
forces without the loss OF party identity
or the surrender OF party organization.
"Fusion is tho open and honest plan

and dishonest method Of cooperation.

as the allies agree upon paramount
issues.
1.-THE republican party has settled no
issues. Every year carries it further
from right principles and into more dan
gerous paths. All friends OF FREQ gov
ernment and equal rights must fight
together against the common enemy
until the country is rescued from pluto
cratic tendencies and posterity is saved

According to the st. Louis Globe
Democrat, in asking the natives for
water in the Philippines our soldiers
learned that in one province the word
was "aqua," in another "tubig" and in
third "dunum." So "wate" or "watty"
has been introduced into the Filipino
dialects. The natives have also invented
word from looking on at games Of
chuck-a- luck. They think "up-she-
comes" is the English name for all kinds
OF gambling.
1t has been decided that Wall street
"calls" on stocks are subject to tax.
The pathway Of the average speculator
is beset with thorns, and the inevitable
expenses of the hazards Of the adventur-
GUS in the exchanges and outside the ex-

too often the thorny path ends in an
abyss out Of which there is no climbing.
But words Of warning are wasted on the
men who risk their fortunes in the whirl

Coufurinp the Sharks.

In the Persian gulf the divers have a
curious way of opening the season.
They depend implicitly upon the shark
coniurers, and will not descend with
out their presence. To meet this diff
flculty the government is obliged to
hire the charmers to divert the atten-
ton of the sharks from the fleet. As
the season approaches vast numbers of
natives gather along the shore and
erect huts and tents and bazaars. At
the opportune moment-usually at
midnight, so as to reach the oyster
banks at sunrise-the fleet, to the
number of eighty or 100 boats, put out
to sea- Each of these boats carries two
divers, steersman and shark
charmer and is manned by eight or
ten rowers. Other conjurers remain
on shore, twisting their bodies and
muubling incantations to divert the
sharks.
In case man-eater Is perverse
enough to disregard the charm and at
tack a diver, an alarm is given, and
no other diver will descend on that
day. The power of the conjurer is
believed to be hereditary and the etfi-
cacy of his incantatlons to be wholly
independent of his religious faith

said.
Very WELL call all hands to quar-

officer of the deck from the navigator.
AYE, aye, sir Bugler, sound to

young officer who then had the deck.
He was but lately graduated from the

youthful freshness of his voice.
