This place is 50 near to New
Orleans .forty-thrce niles that
1t is within the shade, 50 that,
perhaps your readers have never
heard of Nicholson, Miss; and
with your permission I will give
them little information on the
subject.
Nicholson is in high and dry
pine countgy-as healthy and
pleasant location as there is in
the South. The land is level and
smooth, with a fine deep soil.
If the New Orleans business
people would have their residen-
ces here, it would be much more
pleasant and healthy for their
families, especially theirchildren.
Land and fuel can be had here
at merely nominal prices. Good
water, and an abundance of it,
can be obtained from artesian
wells. We are but a few rods of
Pearl River, which is the bound
AIRY line between Louisiana and
Mississippi at this point.
There are several stores here,
and a lot was sold to-day, upon
which another store is to be
erected. Goods can be sold here
cheaper than at New Orleans, be-
cause rent and taxes are less.
We have a large mill here, Civ
ing employment to several hun
dred men. and a large amount of
timber and lumber is shipped
from here.
Nicholson is a fine place for a
dairy, as there are trainsrunnlng
into New Orleans every morning,
returning at 10 a, m. and also in
the evening.
Mr.. Charles Egert is a machin-
list, and in fact, a jack at all
trades. He does fine blacksmith
ing, and gun and pistol repairing
and does the best and neatest
kind o. work in his line, Of every
description.
Mr.. Combs is justice of the
peace, and acts as police, Judge,
and jury, and 50 you see we have
a very orderly little village.
There is only one objectionable
and really disreputable thing
about our town, and that is
liquid hell-tire depot on the south
side of town, but fortunately, it
is on the Louisiana side of the
river, it is nevertheless a terrible
nuisance; leading many OF our
young men hellward, before they
are old enough to realize the dan
ger and detriment of their future
destiny,

DIME NOVEL INDIANS
Popular Error Corrected by Facts Il
the Indian Territory.

Pawhuska, Feb. 27.-(JournaD-one OF
the greatest troubles in dealing with
Indian affairs is the erroneous idea which
prevails among many in regard to ten
half breed or mixed Indian The wishes
of the fun blood have beeen the leading
inspirations OF the actions Of the pseudo
friend Of the Indian. In fact the east
ern idea is that there is no Indian but
full blodos.
This prevalent idea is largely due TO
the literature of the past, which made
the half-breed the william Of the plot,
while his full-blod relatives. clad only in
picturesque costumes Of paint and feath-
ers, were lauded as heroes. The full-blood
who joined forces with the white man
to assist IN the determination of his own
race WAS lauded. while the half-breed
who led his kinsmen into battle was pic
tured as the devil incarnate. This is
the indian in literature. and governmental
action has been based upon that belief
until quite recently.
1.-THE result has been that the more
educated mixed blood has had but little
influence in shaping the destiny Of his
people When he proposed a forward
step he was asked how about the In
dams? just as though he were not an
Indian himself The full blood naturally
clings to the customs of the tribe and the
everlasting pandering TO his wishes does
not help along the cause of civilization.
Every change that has been made to
progressive citizenship has been made in
spite Of the wishes eff the so-cailed
friends Of the Indians
Take the Usage reservation as an ex-
ample. More than a majority Of the tribe
are mixed blods, and the proportion is in
creasing every day. Every mixed blood
stands ready 10 do anything to throw
open the country and take upon them
selves the duty of citizenship. They have
for years stood as a unit for allotment
but nothing las been done toward that
end beca Use the indians" did not favor
IT, Now that sentiment for allotment
is getting hold Of the Tull-3lood element
we are tod that the friends Of the Indian
have heard his voice already.
THE Usage mixed blood has had a
hard row to hoe. Bowed down by the
weight Of the reservation system, he has
had to stand mutely by while the sub
stance of his tribe was wasted in riot9us
living, If he bacame a spendthrft and
a rascal, is it any wonder Discredited
abroad and hampered at home. unable
to become aught but but an Indian and
yet not considered one when it came to
voicing the sentiment Of his tribe Only
recently members of the United States
senate objected to educating the child
rem fthe mixed bloods. but as yet no
one has proposed to follow the mixed
Floods advice and do away with the
necessity Of the governmental education"
