BIG CHIEF.
His Pedigree Is Old
as the Sun.
White Eagle Is Going
to Washington.
tie Expects to Dine With the
White Father.

Guthrie, o. T., Nov. 14.-(Spl.)--
White Eagle, the aged philosopher
chief Of the Ponca Indians, declares
that while he might entertain Booker
L. Washington at dinner should the
colored educator visit his tepee, yet he
Is very positive that in no other man
ner should an Indian whose pedigree
Ia as old as the sun, have aught to do
with man whose skin is black
White Eagle visited Guthrie today
en- route home from attending an In
dian conference. He wore bright yell
low leggings and his head was sur
rounded with circlet of feathers. In
his hand he carried n polished pipe Of
peace about three feet long. His face
was painted and he evidently enjoy
ed the attention his display of tinery
attracted from the crowd.
White Eagle thinks it proper" he
said, that the white father at Wash
ington should give to big Indian Chief
same treatment as to big Negro Chief
No Indian Chief ever ate at white
fathers table. This is not good. My
pedigree is as old as the sun, moon
and stars-older than white fathers.
Negro Chiefs pedigree only since the
great white father set him free. White
Eagle believes Indian just as good as
white man. Indian should have white
woman in his tepee. White man
should have Indian squaw. Not so
with negro, he not good enough to have
white squaw. No Ponca papoose shall
go to negro school. If he do then Pom
ca disown him.
white Eagle will go to Washington
to see white father and will tell white
father that Ponca Indians want lands
allotted He will ask White Eagle,
whose pedigree is old as sun to eat
at his table. White Eagle will eat,
that will be good.'

sentative contests. He is In evidence
everywhere.
people are no longer afraid of
breaking over party lines. There was
a time, years ago, when TO bolt a reg
ular party nomination meant political
ostraclsm to the bolter. 1t Is not so
now. Caucuses and conventions are
not infallible; they often go wrong,
or contrary to the wishes of major
ity Of the voters, and when they do
the people take the matter into their
own hands and rectify what they
judge to be a mistake. This is the
right course. 1t is the only ground
of safety. Partisanship is some
times blind. Look at New York city.
If partisanship had been adhered to
Tammany would have triumphed in the
late election. 1t was because of the
Independent action of many thousands
Of Democrats that the city has been
saved from the continued rule of a
gang of plunderers of the public. Much
of this change has come through the
new mode of voting by the Austral-
ian system, where each voter makes
up his own ticket. But much is due
to an advance in public sentiment,
which has lifted the voter to higher
appreciation of his own responsibility
and power. The end Is not yet. The
change will go on until the voter at
the polls becomes of more Importance
In deciding elections than the manip-
ulator of caucuses and conventions" +"

SONG.

Less Of sunlight In Loves day
When my deary's far away;
When | miss the love complete
or the beautiful and sweet;
With the dear kind eyes, that seem
Lights that lure me in n dream,
And the lips that say and sing
Sweet past all imagining.
Dreary night and darkened day
When my deary's far away.
Miss the music o. the birds,
And the sweetest human words
Tuneless fall, and seem to be
Mockeries of melody!
Roses sweet that touched her hand
Led as II by Loves command
Droop and wither, signing this:
"Lost-the lips we loved to kiss"
SO the roses sigh and say
When my deary's far away.
Sing, o fOwer-sweet winds that roam
Sing, o heart, the coming home!
Shine, o stars, with softer light
Love, make Beautiful the night;
Let the hearts Of roses stir
Where the morning sings Of her!
Till we meet, and on Loves breast
In a dream Of Love we rest.

INDEPENDENT VOTING.

they are well worth reading:

HIGH POSSIBILITIES IN POLITICS
(From the Ou tloolS.

NfTOlH une Ou tlOOk.)
Notwithstanding the traditional wis
dom of the men who call themselves
practical politicians who deal with
what are called practical politics, and
who are scornful of idealsts, reform
ers and independents of all kinds,
there Is nothing i'm public life which
so delights the hearts of men as the
appearance of n sincere man who says
what Is in his mind, deals straight
blows from the shoulder, and calls a
spade a spade. Our politics are smit-
ten with the plague of the common-
place, Of conventional cowardice, ex-
pressed In platltudes wearisomely re-
iterated campaign after campaign.
Whenever a fresh voice is heard, and
"A man appears who has mind of his
own and is not afraid to express It,,
who does not trim his sails to every
breeze. and, above all, who brings
moral fervor into the field, he is i'm
mediately listened to; and if he Is
brave and strong enough, he becomes
a leader. The greatest successes of re.
cent years In public life have been
won by disregard of the traditional
wisdom Of the practical politicians.

NO HALL
Large Enough For the
Reunion.
Committees Of Eighth 0. V. !.
Confronted by Problem.

Whenever reunion or convention
is proposed for Akron, the citizens are
soon forcibly reminded that there Is
no hall in the city where large meet
ings can be held. This lack of a suit
able meeting place has made great
deal of trouble for the committees hav-
ing the Eighth regiment reunion IN
charge.
The program OF the meeting of the
soldiers provides for mass meeting,
and also for banquet. Inquiry soon
revealed that there was no place where
such meetings could be held convenient
ly and up to this time no suitable place
has been found. 1t Is thought prob
able that small hall will. finally be
decided on and the men will be taken
care of In divisions, so that there will
be no crowding.
An attendance of nearly 800 soldiers
Is expected and numbers OF outsiders

have been invited to attend the meet
ings, SO that a hall large enough to
hold 1000 people would be comfortably
filed. The committees are busy pro-
vlding headquarters, arranging for n
dinner or banquet, obtaining variety
Of entertainments and arranging for
the parade.
1t was at first proposed that members
wear their service uniforms in the pa
rade, but the cold weather has caused
the plan to be abandoned. The uni
forms were issued to the men for ser
vice in the tropical country, and would
scarcely do for parade in wintry
weather.

work Is beginning to add to the re.
sources of the nation, and that there
fore. 1t would be proper to tax them
on their departure. 1t is proposed that
the young men be taxed more heavily
than old men, and that every emigrant
who returns be given back the amount
that he was taxed when he Wen,
