Paris. Ky, Feb. I1.-George Carter,
a negro, who was in jail here charged
with having assaulted Mrs. W. Z.
Board about three weeks ago, was
Iynched by a mob early this morning
shortly after O'Clock. About thirty
determined men appeared at the jail
door and demanded admittance of Jail
er Kiser. He refused and the door was
burst open.
The jailer was OverpOwered in an in
slant, the keys secured and in less
than five minutes Carter was in the
hands OF the mob. He refused to make
any statement
Tt was the work Of a minute to place
a rope around his neck and he was then
half dragged to the entrance of the
court house.
The rope was then thrown over the
iron arch leading to the entrance and,
while several pulled on the rope, others
lifted his body
Carter died by stranguIa ton.
The mob then quickly dispersed.
During the whole affair there was not
a word spoken.
Scarcely any one in the town, outside
of the immediate participants, knew
that the lynChing was to take place.

SCORES
NOME JUDGE
Federal Appeals Tribunal
Renders a Decision.
RECEIVER M'KENZIE
is SENT TO JAIL
Must Serve Term of One Year
for Contempt.

San Francisco, Feb. 1.-THE United
States circuit court of appeals today
found Alexander Mckenzie, the Cape
Nome receiver, guilty of contempt of
court in two cases and sentenced him
to serve one year in the county Jail.
The court also took occasion to de-
nounce what is characterized as the
"high-handed and grossly illegal pro-
ceedings initiated after the arrival of
Judge Noyes and Mckenzie at Cape
Nome"
The court says it has no parallel in
the Jurisprudence of the country and
congratuIates the people of Nome for
not taking matters into their own
hands.
The decision was rendered by Judges
Ross, Gilbert and MORROW in the cases
of John / Tornanses VS.. L. F. Melsing
ct al. and William a. Kjellman vs..
Henry Rodgers. These are two of the
cases in which Mckenzie declined to
obey the writ of supersedeas issued by
Judge Morrow directing him, as receiv-
CT, to turn over money and gold dust
in his possession to the owners.
Much testimony has been heard in
the Nome cases, and they have been
for months. There was considerable
evidence introduced in an effort to
prove that a con piracy existed between
officials at Nome TO secure control OF
the claims.
Mckenzie claimed that he was not
guilty of contempt because all the pa
pers and orders issued by Judge Nor
court at Nome at the time he was ac-
cused of disObeying the Writs.
Case Declared Unparalleled.
The court thus refers to the acts Of
judge Moves and the manner in which
affairs were conducted at Nome:
The CIRCUMSTANCES attehoIlS the dI-
pOintmenJ of a receiver IN these cases,
however, and his conduct after, as well
as before the appointment, rs SHOWN by
the record and evidence, so far from i'm
pressing us with the sincerity Of the pre-
tension that his refusal to obey the writs
issued out OF this court was based upon
the advice of his counsel that they We're
void, satisfy us that II was Intentional
and deliberate ana in furtheTance of the
high-handed and grossly Illegal proceed
iug5 initiated almost as soon as JudSe
Moves and Nick emile had set foot on
Alaskan territory at Nome, and which
may be safely and fortunately said to
have no parallel IN the Jurisprudence of
this country
And it speaks well for the good. sober
sense of the people gathered on that re-
mote and barren shore that they depend
ed solely upon the courts tor the cOTrec-
ton of the wrongs thus peTpetrated among
and against them, which always may be
depended upon to right, sooner or later,
wrongs properly brought before them.
And it is well in these days OF the rapid
extension of our national domain, for all
persons, whether residing in remote re-
gions. or nearer home, to remember that
courts which respect themseiVs and have
due regard FOR the administration of JUS
tice and the maintenance of law and or
der will never tolerate any disobedience
of their lawful orders. writs or judgments,
wherever committed within their jurisdic-
ton

DENoUNCES ANARCHY
IN THE COUNTRY
Solicitor General Richards Speaks
Of Its Suppression at
BANQUET.


PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-The Union
LEAGUE tonight celebrated founders
Day" by a banquet, at which many Of the
guests Of honor were men Of national
nronnfnence. Among the distinguished
guests were: Secretary Of the Treasury
Gage. Secretary Of the Interior Hitchcock,
Senator W. H. Frye, Of Maine; ex-Attor-
ney-General John w. Griggs, Postmaster
General Charles Emory Smith, Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson, J.. K. Richards.
Solicitor General Of the United States, and
w. H. Hunt, Governor Of Porto Rico.
Solicftor-Gener1 Richards spoke on the
topic: "A Present PERIL" suggesting
methods for the suppression Of anarchy.
He said:
"a murderous assault upon the Presi-
dent, aiming as it does at the life OF the
Government, imperils the safety Of the
whole country and whether successful or
unsuccessful should be punished by death
The freedom Of speech for which ou1 4
fathers fought was not the right to adj
vocate the destruction by force and vtc-
lence of the government they founded
The right Of the United States to exclude
alien anarchists and to deport such as
have not yet become citizens must be
conceded. II Congress intrusts to the
President the power to exclude alien an
archists and to deport all unnaturahzed
ones, fancy it will not be difficult to put
in operation an effective plan OF rtddtng
the country of these bloody minded peo-
ple."

address on Porto Rico and the people Of
that island, and Senator Frye dwelt
strongly on the need OF Government aid

REDS BECOMING
SELF-sUsTA|N|NC
Improved Condition of
the Indian Tribes Of
Montana.

HELENA, Mont, Nov. 23.-The Indians
of the Northwest are taking from the
shoulders of President Roosevelt his self
appointed burden of trying to find a solu-
ton of the problem of making the Indian
self-sustaining citizen Of the United
States. President Roosevelt's long resi-
dence in the West has made him especial
ly interested in this problem. Washing4
ton dispatches state that he has of late
been holding long conferences with Indian
Commissioner Jones.
Commissioner Jones, like an economical
official, is looking at the financial aspect
of the situation. He believes that the
present annual appropriation of SIS, 900 900
for the care and maintenance of the vari-
Gus Indian tribes could and should be cut
down. He proposes that every male In
dian be given 100 acres Of good agricul-
tural land and told to go it alone. He
wants the President to urge Congress to
take action along these lines.
So far Jones is all fight, but the facts
do not bear out his statement that the
continuation of the present system of
caring for the Indian wards of the Gov
eminent is making them more dependent
every year. This certainly does not hold
true in regard to the Indians of Montana.
Some interesting facts along this line
have been developed of late.
For instance, Major ]. e. Edwards,
agent for the Government on the Grow
Indian reservation, one of the largest in
the State, said to The Call correspondent:
aside from a few mendicants and pau
pers the Crows are now self-sustaining.
My reports to the department at Wash
ington Will bear out my statement that
the Crows are to-day the best and most
industrious band in Montana This has
been an exceptionally good year with
The San Francisco call., 1901-11-24

them. Those who farmed raised good
crops and found a good market for them.
The principal business and big money
maker for the Indians is stock raising
Those following this line also did excep-
tfonally well this year. Their cattle
brought a good price. Many carloads have
been shipped East from the reservation.
Nearly all Of them made their profits in
buying yearlings and generally increasing
their herds. Some good horses were also
sold by the Indians to agents Of the Brit
fsh Government for use in the South
African war;
The 1000 Crows on the reservation are
taking kindly to the new order just put
In force from the department at Washing
ton, namely, that the rations be dimin-
ished by degrees and finally cut off en-
tirely, but the Crows have been practi-
cally self-sustaining for some time''
The Assiniboins and Gros Ventres on
the Belknap reservation are other i'm
portant tribes in this State. Concerning
their condition James C. Fitzpatrick, on
his way through Helena for a vacation
trip in the East, said:
There is no feeling Of unrest among the
Assiniboin and Gros Ventre Indians.
Ihey are contented and happy and, what
is better, they are becoming ambitious
and thrifty.
'Gros Ventres,' the name given this
tribe by the Canadian French many years
ago, means fat and lazy but this tribe
is fast dismeriting the name. While they
are suaye and easy going, they are by no
means lazy. 1 believe contact with the
Assiniboins has done more than anything
else to dispel the ennui which so long
characterized the tribe
1t used to be that the Indians were sat-
lsned to lounge about their huts and draw
their rations, but of late years they have
become ambitious Many of them are sue
cessful farmers. Others have large herds
OF cattle and horses.
The new order from the department
for the cutting down Of rations will prfn-
c1pally affect the 'squaw men, white men
married to Indian wives. For years the
Government has been paying their gro
Gerry bills and they have been steadily
growing rich from their stock, fed on the
Tree ranges. ] believe most of them will
move to other parts of the State now and
take up land Strange as 1t may seem,
some of the happiest families 1 have ever
seen have been among this class The
squaW men, as a rule, are kind and in
dulgent to their wives and families. I be-
heye the Indians are ably seconding the
apparent efforts of the Government to
make them self-supporting."

MAKING A FIGHT
FOR RECIPROCITY
President and Members
Of the Cabinet Favor
Legislation.
In Opposition Are a Coterie of
gh-Protection Senators
and Representatives.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU. 1406 G STREET, N.
W., WASHINGTON. Nov. 23.-President
Mckinley saw the commercial handwrit-
ing on the wall and recommended reci-
procity in his last public utterance.
President Roosevelt believes that reci-
procity Is necessary as a safeguard for
commercial prosperity Of the future, and
will recommend the principle in his forth
coming message. Secretary Hay will urge
ratification of the Kasson treaties now
before the Senate. Secretary Gage favors
reciprocity legislation. Some Of the great
manufacturers of the country. notably
those who export agricultural machinery
and implements-and their business rep
resents hundreds Of millions-have not yet
given up the fight, and will come here this
winter to get the ear Of public men
John A. Kasson, who negotiated the
treaties which bear his name, is
still firm in his position. but he
frankly admits that he see little hope
in the coming session. He is SO hopeless
that he sees signs of doing away entirely
with the fourth section of the Dingley
act.
Opposed tosall these men. who have
studied and thought out this question
enough to forecast the commercial future
OF the country, are a coterie of high-pro-
lection Senators and some pretty big men
like Dalzell in the House. They are we'll
known leaders and men of great influence
in both branches. In fact they may be
said to dominate legislation. That is why
the reciprocity men are about ready to
throw up their hands and give up hope.
One faint ray left Is the President, who
is now expected to speak in no uncertain
terms in his message.
While the outcome of the reciprocity
convention has had only a cold water
effect on the friends Of the treaties
now in Washington it has stirred others.
notably in some of the Western States,
to renewed action, and already they are
beginning to let the President know their
views. Word has reached the President
that the Western people want reciprocity.
want it badly and want it now. At tho
same time comes the suggestion that they
are not disposed to leave a settlement of
a question so broad to a few influential
statesmen, who base their opinion on the
business interests Of their own constitu-
entS,
