Asto "SectarIaulsm." !"

Editor Chieltain:-In your pa.
per Of last Saturday, under the
above heading, you call for an eI
preston from the authorities oI
Willie Halsell college, in refer.
ence TO proselyting students oI
other faiths into the belief of the
Methodist church.
As such a thing has not occurred
during the eleven years exislenct
Of the school, cannot understand
why a deliveranoe on that subject
should be thought necessary now
However, do not object to say,
ing, that proselyling is positively
prohibited in all our Methodist
schools. We try to get our stu
dents to become Christians, and
discourage in them any tendency
to stray off from the church oil
their fathers.
l have just finished my twentist
years work 10 Methodist schools
in the Indian Territory. 1 have
educated the sons and daughlerl
of prominent members Of othel
denominations, and up to thii
good hour have never been charges
with the sin Of proselyting.
Last year we had among oul
students in Willie Halsell college
the children of Baplisls, Presby
terians, Christians, and Episco
palians, and as an evidence ol
their satisfaction, all 80 far as
know, expect TO return then
children TO US next term.
Persons wishing to contribute
to our building and repair iuud,
can do 30 with the full assurance
upon our part, that children at.
tending school al the college will
be iaiViy and righteously taught.

The status Of a nation, in the
great world family, is directly pro-
portionate 10 this time of grace Ia
her ability to defend what che has
and to gobble what she can get.
"Maniiest Destinies" are simply
assumed letters OF marque to prey
on all that are weaker than your.
self. America, who has recently
discovered such a "desliny" in
Puerto Rico, and the far away isles
OF the Pacific has, at the same
time, attracted the coyeious eyes
Of all Europe to her weaker sisters
in South America. The Orient
has always been considered the
Spanish main Of the land pirates
Of Europe. Americas trespassing
on their usurped feld of territor.
ial larceny, has suggested reprisals
on the rich territory to the south
Of US, which has always rested Sc.
cure under the protection Of this
country. The Monroe doctrine
lost its claim to international re-.
cognition when imperialism was
born in Washington.
The FIRST rumble Of approaching
strife has been heard, and yet
there are many Of the godfathers
al Washington, who cry down a
threatened European encroach-
ment in South America as sbsurd.
From the war Of the revolution
until the late Spanish American
affair, less than 35 years have in.
teryened between the wars this
country has passed through Our
geographical position in the striies
with England, the only frstolass
power we have ever engaged, was
our grralest strength. We have
surrendered this, in the final loca.
tion Of our new destiny" There
ls but one recourse now-prepare
for its maintenance. There are
millions of our people who think
that fair Liberty" whose sup.
posed home was ia this glorious
union, bas departed from amongst
us-bul these same legions are
ready 10 shoulder a musket, and
with, 'my country right or wrong
my country" repel any Euro
pean encroachment on our sister
republics Of the south. Let US
throw of all re naming hypocrisy
and step boldly out in imperial
robes. The government is in the
hands Of the disoOverers-let them

Washington, June 30.-The fac.
tions among the Indians in the
Kiowa, Comanche and Apache
reservation, headed by Lone Wolf
will make no further effort to pre-.
vent the opening Of the reserva|
Iion. Judge Springer, their coun.
sci, left this afternoon for Macki-
nae, Mich, to spend a part of the
summer. Judge Springer said this
morning that in the absence of an
Injunction there was nothing TO
prevent the interior department
from proceeding with ils plans,
and that the opening undoubted.
ly would occur early in August.
"The Indians have gotten the
worst OF il right along in the courts
here, F" said the Judge, "but am
confident they will get favorable
decision in the United States su.
preme court. Ihave examined all
OF the precedents and court deci-
sions aud these are all against the
contention that the government
can take lands from Indians with.
out their consent, expressed by
treaty formally ratified. The seiz-
ure OF the Kiowa country by the
government is disgrace and an
outrage. The plans OF Lone Wolf
and his followers is 10 appeal to
the United States supreme court
at the fall session, and there is no
doubt in my mind that they will
get decision by which all Of the
persons who settle in the Kiowa
country will be trespassers. II

dent declaring the Kiowa reserya-
lion open 70 settlement will be
promulgated next week.

THE LAST CHAPTER.

The work of the Dawes commits.
sion, in the matter OF enrolment
Of Cherokee freedmen, is drawing
to close. o. the part of the
representatives, OF the Cherokee
nation it has been nne-eontinuous,
long. .dFdwn.out battle with a band
OF perjured witnesses, who stand
before the commission day after
day, with their pockets full of
bribes and their mouths full Of
lies. There is a coterie Of colored
witnesses hanging about the com.
mission tents, who swear for mon.
ey, and whose falsehoods are
taken in many instances for the
truth. The Cherokee attorneys
have gone up against the hardest
proposition the nation ever struck
and the struggle has been against
unusual odds. OF course, no one
can tell, even approximately, how
many will finally be enrolled, or
just what weight the testimony Of
these fslsifiers will have, but cer-
tain it is, there will be many
names admitted to the roll, who
ought in all fairness, to be ex-
eluded. With this enrolment
closes, perhaps, the darkest chap.
ter in the history Of a Most un-
fortunate and beleagured people.
Let the curtain fall just as soon as
possible.

LET THE TRUTH BE KNOWN.
The letter Of President T. F
Brewer in this weeks Uhieftsin
necessarily opens the discussion oi
what is the matter with Willie
Halsell college. No one attaches
blame 20 Professor Brewer for lack
Of Efficient management, but that
the drift Of the institution has
been such as TO cause lamentable
lethargy on the part OF the com
munity, there can be no doubt.
The trouble is either with the
school or with the people Of Vini.
Ia, and TO locate the ailment is
important in order that the proper
remedy may be applied. Mistakes
have doubtless been made both in
and out Of the institution, and to
locate and correct those mistakes
were far wiser than to deny them
AT the present time the people OF
Vinita, especially the business
men, are analyz;ng the causes Of
the partial failure Of the school
and anxiously seeking to put in
operation a plan that will place
the school on it's feet and make IL
the pride of this town and coun-
Try. A disposition to proselyte
has been charged but vigorously
denied by those in a position to
know. This charge is either true
or IL is false. II false, a great
wrong is being done the school,
the Methodist church and the
town. II true, it ought to be
stopped instanter. Just where the
line Of demaroation between
Christian and denominational
training is to be drawn may be a
question capable Of the widest dif.
ference Of opinion, but the point
where one ceases and the other
begins is important in the present
emergency. In the employment
OF teachers the management Of ;he
college has always been liberal
enough not to con6ne itself to
Melhodists, but Presbyterians,
Bsptists and other denominations
have been drawn upon in the Sc.
lection Of its faculties. Though,
when teachers from these other
churches have been given places
in the school it has been a mistake
TO require them to attend the
Methodist church and Sabbath
school instead OF their own. This
has been strenuously denied, but
those who know all about the his.
tory of the institution know Of sew.
eral instances where it has been
done. No harm can come from a
plain statement Of these facts, and
a full, free aud fair discussion can
be had without injury. Let the
people Of Yinita understand the
attitude Of Willie Halsell college
along these lines and they will
come nobly to its rescue, as they
do to every other worthy enter.

The matter Of cleaning up the

request that they correspond with

also with the officials Of the rail.
roads urging that some action be
taken this winter to that end.
There was also referred to that
committee the matter Of regulat-
ing or prohibiting the distribution
and circulating Of circulars and
advertising matter on the streets,
with a view OF ascertaining wheth-
or or not our merchants may not
find other means Of advertising
their business. And If any de.

nance may be prepared, for pre-.
tsentation TO the city council for it's
action.
Also the matter of regulating the
nuisance Of hotel drummers on ar.
rival Of NJ, X. & T. trains, was
referred to this committee for &C.
tion. 1t having been reported
they block the platform at that
station and interfere with passen-
