Wants $40. 600 for his hair.

A suit for $4,000 damages has been
begun i'm the federal court of the northern
district of Iowa by a Sac and Fox Indian
of high degree and purple blood, known
as Ma-Ka-Ta-Wah, alias Qua-Twa, some
times referred to as Black Ciond and fire.
quently dubbed by poor, iIIiterate white
trash, Muck-A- High. Occasionally he is
discourteously termed MuIligatawney.
The plaintiff in the action was con-
demned for cashing a public annuity to
serve a term in the state penitentiary,
There the raven locks in which he gIoried
were removed. For This offense to his
comeliness he demands the recompense
named in the suit and alleges he was
never subject to the laws of Iowa under
which he was confined. He names as the
defendants Warden ". n. Hunter, of the
state prison at Anamosa and III, NJ. Rebok

The Huronite has got out with it
at last. In speaking of the an
didacy of j. II. Mccoy, of Brown
county, for circuit Judge, it says.
This writer feels in no way bound
to his support by party ties, but it
is unreasonable to charge Mr.. Craw-
ford with being against Mccoy or
his friends with quietly urging Nul's
candidacy" The Huronite has taken
the same position as Crawford and
the newspapers which support him
the Howard Spirit and Canton News
when a candidate is nominated 10y
the republican party which does not
suit their individual fancy they will
not support that candidate but get
out of it by saying he was not the
nominee that 'the people" wanted
and of course they 'are the people.
Such men and such newspapers are
inestimable value to a party-of the
opposition. The deterioration ofthe
Huronite has been noticeable ever
since Deacon Shannon severed his
connection but never has it been Sc
marked as since Longstaff com
menced trying 10 boom Crawford for
the senate. The first pop was a dis
gruntled republican and ever since
the pop party has been the home OF
rest for sound and disappointed
politicians of all other parties. Good
bye. boys, You'll never be missed.

Allowed Plenty of Time.

Speaking of the late William Travers
leads me to remark that. so far as l
am personally aware, only n of the
classic suffering stories about him is
actually true. / had the honor and
happiness to reside at Newport for a
year or so once, and at the time Mr..
Travers was a summer resident there.
He certainly suffered a good deal, but
he did not go around habitually dis.
charging staccato witticisms at the
world, Is you might suppose he did
from all the stories you hear. But the
one story that I know about Is this
one:
Travers was at a garden party one
afternoon when n young lady said to
him. what time is ii, please, Mr.
Traverse"
Travors took out his watch, wabbled
his mouth awhile. blinked and finally
said, 'It'n be s-s-s-s-six o~'c-c-c-c-clock

A Cure for Cholera Infantum.

"Last May" says Mrs. Curtis Baker

Sunny Rooms,

1t is said to be true that in all hospi.
tails those rooms facing the sun have
fewer deaths, other things being equal
than those which are on the shady side
Of the house. Likewise statistics, where
they have been kept, prove that the av.
erage time for a recovery is much less
in a sunny room than in n shady one
From these facts and from the fact
that the tendency toward illness has
proved greater on the shady side OF
buildings, like prisons and asylums. II
follows that light is second only In i'm.
p~ortance to fresh air. A dark room is
nearly but not quite so bad as a close
room. In the case of sickness the sick.
room should be the sunniest one the
house affords.

Judge Oakley, of Columbus, Ohio,
sitting as master commissioner in
the ease of the late Bishop Waiter
o against the treasurer of Franklin
county, holds that residences occu-
pied priests, bishops and janitors of
churches are not exempt from tax
alton under the religious exemption
act. This is the same question that
came up in this city when Assessor
Ochsenreiter assessed the property
of the churches this year, contending
that all their property other than the
church edifiees are subject to tax
alton, and in his position Mr.. Ochsen-
reiter is sustained by Judge Oakley.
1t Is a point, however, upon which
there is much contention and should
be taken before the supreme court
and a decision secured. Church
property either should or should not
pay taxes. If the churches of Web
steer haze to pay, then the churches
OF the whole state should DE com

M'LAURIN REPLIES.

The South Carolina democratic
state executive committee has
received Senator McLaur;n's reply
to their action of July %, condemn
ing his course in the senate and
demanding his resignation.
In the course of the letter Senator
McLaurin writes
Il hold my commission from the
democratic voters of South Carolina.
/ recognize no authority but theirs;
take no orders from any sourse but
them, and shall in due course appeal
to them for judgment on my course
as a senator and my character as a
man and a democrat.
Personally l am indifferent to
your action, because nobody has
made you my master o censor, and |
regard what you have done as
merely expressing the malice and
the fears of one individual, Senator
B. r. Tillman. But for this alwa US
evil and indecent influence, ordinary
respect for the proprieties would
probably have prevented the four of
you who are my declared competi-
tors for the seat l now have the
honor to occupy, from attempting to
use the power entrusted to you by
your party to remove a rival from
your path.
Il shall ask the people to decide
between the man who has tried to
help build factories, open highwa Us
of commerce, and command for the
democratic party the confidence and
respect of the business and laboring
elements North and South, and that
of the man whose conduct and rec
ord has been such as to sink the
party to disrepute and impotence.
| shall ask them to say whether they
prefer the senator who has tried TO
retain for South Carolina the honor
and dignity won by a long line of
illustrious sons and glorious deeds,
or the senator who has postured as
butfoon and bully, and who pro-
claimed on the floor of the senate
that he represented a constituency
of bailot-bo suffers and murderers
who wanted their share of the steal
age.
Il desire to proclaim to the world
that You do not represent the intel
ligence of the democracy of the peo-
pie OF South Carolina, and to you and
Senator Tillman that he has never
been my master and shall never be;
that he shall not escane the ven
geance that must surely fall upon
him when the peolpe have been
made TO understand his motives, his
methods, his debased character and
his shameful record. To that grand
c%onsersator of free government, the
reserved patriotism and common
sense Of the people, | make appeal
against partisan intolerance and
tyranny"

Even Mr.. Bryan, who remains
officially leader of the democratic
party has dropped silver, or is will
ing to drop it. Imperialism is still
the great issue between the two
political parties he says. "The
tariff, to be sure, is an important
subject, but to my mind heart dis
ease is a more serious malady than
stomach ache" 1t is interesting to
compare with this utterance the
views of representative Livingston,
of Georgia, one of the most intelli :
gent and forceful democrats in the
South. I'm my opinion" he says,
a'the next national platform of the
democratic party will be notable for
the absence of some of the planks of
the Chicago and Kansas City plat
forms. Imperialism will not, |
think, be dwelt upon 50 strongly by
the democrats in their next national
convention. People are not very
much worried about Imperialism"
In Mr., Livingston's opinion, then,
imperialism is not even a collie.
