they did not do this warrants the
inference that they knew, if pro-
duced, damage their case; nor can
this inference be satisfactorily off
set by their simply saying that, at
some former time, they had the
i'll luck to lose these papers.
The form of corruption insisted
upon is this case by the attorneys
for the nation involves not only
the good name of the clerk, but
the honor of every officer em-
braoed in the composition of the
court itself. In order to rid the
nation of certain obnoxious citi-
zens, they propose to morally de-
molish one entire branch of the
civil government. A far more
sensible plan of procedure would
have been to treat the case as a
legislative question and enlist the
strong arm OF the national council.
The sovereignty of the Chero-
kee people in all matters pertain
ing to the rights of Cherokee citi.
zenship is absolute and unques-
toned. In the exercise of that
sovereignity, they have gone so
far as to prescribe in their consti-
tuition the ultimate condition upon
which a Cherokee can be made q
citizen at all: He must live per-
petually within the territorial linn
it's of the Cherokee nation. They
make a citizen of . white man on
condition that he will marry a
Cherokee woman; again they take
his citizenship from him when he
re-marries to woman who is a
non citizen. Acting through their
national council. they review and
correct all Cherokee census rolls;
whomsoever they put upon the
roll are to be accepted as citizens;
whomsoever they strike off, are
rejected as aliens. The fam GUS
'authenticated" roll of 1880, that
infallible test of Cherokee citizen
ship, was made in this way. This
sovereignty on part of the Chero-
kee people has also been acknowl-
edged by the United States, and
congress has implicitly approved
it. In the act defining the duties
of the Dawes commission, they
are instructed that, in making a
roll of Cherokee citizens, they are
not to regard the abstract rights
OF the applicant, but TO test his
fitness for enrolment by the
"laws and customs" OF the Chero-
kee nation.
In view of these facts then, why
trouble the Dawes commission2
The judgment of the Cherokee cit
izenship court is nothing in the
way Let the national council say
whom 1t does not want for citi-
zen, and the Dawes commission
will, under the instructions of con-
gress, be bound to acquiesce. The
only objection that could be raised
against so direct q method of re-
lieving the nation against the bo-
gus claims of citizenship, would be
it's extreme responsiveness.

tOrneys 10 defend the rights OF the
Cherokee people against the false
claims of citizenship, that they
should descend to mode of prao-
tice, not only damaging to the
good name OF respectable citizens,
but thoroughly disgraceful to the
nation itself.
We might stop here; but we
cannot persuade ourself to close
this communication without first
making mention of few things in
connection with these cases-we
allude TO the Dawson, and the
Shoemake cases.
When these cases were tried be-
fore the Cherokee commission, the
evidence was taken down in writ
ing directly from the lips of the
with esses and as nearly verbatim
as practicable. At the close of the
trial, this written testimony ,along
with the pleadings, was respect
fully punched, and, together with
the judgme tents recorded. carefully
deposited for safekeeping in the
executive Office, and was left there
in the custody of the principal
chief. Now, as much as nineteen
years afterwards-just few days
ago-when these same cases came
up for review before the Dawes
commission, there was not a pa
per in tn em to be found except the
bare record of the judgment, and a
olitary little piece of the plead
ings which purported tc be mo-
tion for a new trial.
The question now arises as to
who is responsible for this sweep
ing diminution of the records. Un-
doubtedly the responsibility must
rest upon the party into whose
b ands they were originally placed
by the law for safe keeping-the
principal chief. Yet we are slow
TO believe that the man who occu-
pies the place of chief custodian
of the nations honor could be gull
ty in these premises of anything
more than merely reprehensible
neglect to adequately guard the
valuable contents of his Office
against the fingers OF rummsge
and depreciation. We are much
more inclined to believe that some
poor, dwarfed branch of the legal
profession, skilled in the art of
Gro oked practice, cunningly pene-
trated the vaults of the executive
Office and, capturing these papers,
spirited them away, in pursuance
of a general plan for fixing the
guilt of corruption upon the clerk
of the Tehee commission; certainly
the vicious simplicity of an act of
that kind could furnish no ground
at all for an inference of innocence
on part of at least of good por-
tion of the standing that is en-
gagged in the management of these
matters on the side of the nation.
The singular disappearance of
these papers is not without sig
nificance and some rational inter-
probation.
The last known of this written
evidence, it was in the hands of
the national authorities now rep
resented by the attorneys who are
prosecuting the review OF these
cases. 1t was certainly either suf,
ficient, or not sufficient, TO Justify
the judgment rendered by the
Cherokee commission; if sufficient,
then clearly there could have been
no need of putting money into the
hands of the clerk for the purpose
of corrupting the court in the in
terest of the claimants; indeed it

 their souls. In I53S the MethodTsm of the world commenced with its first class in Lodon. Thirty years later the work began upon the American scontin- ent. and in l169 WaF built the first church of our communion in this cOun- try. Sc for twenty years Methodism had been in the land. before its hymns were sung, or its sermons heard in New Haven.
 On the day that Jesse Lee preached his first sermon here, there were al- ready, scattered over the Union in small and feeble bands. about forty thousand members of our church. In the early part of 1795, Rev. Daniel Ostrander, one os the giants of early Methodism. formed the first class in this city, composed of the following five persons, Samuel Pole and wife Martha. William Thatcher and wife Anna, and Ann Mix. During these years the preaching was held in the dwelling houses of the brethren. But in 1797 the little society purchased for (s90l ninety dollars the Sandemenian meeting-house on Toddy Alley, now Gregson street. In this humble edifice the society worshipped for the next ten years, but they were far from being years of quiet and comfort. Early Methodists had to fight as well as pray. Though their battles were chiefly with sin and Satan, they were obliged, at times, in self-defence, to lay a heavy hand on the sinner himself. The ''lov- CTS of good order'' were quite shocked at times at the noise and confusion of these meetings, and determined to break them up. Finding that usual in- terruptions, such as were common among the baser sorts, did not succeed they finally concluded to level the Toddy Alley meeting house to the ground. At last the dark hour came, and at eleven o'clock at night, the leader of the gang gained entrance to the house. The first blow of his broad axe on the pulpit was to be the signal for the crowd outside to tear off the siding and demolish the building. Meantime. the brethren, learning of the plan, had gathered to defend their church.. No sooner had the broad axe descended on the pulpit than we'll di- rected blow in the dark, upon the head of the leading rowdy brought him to his senses and frightened him from his purpose. The next day the courts of justice decided that the Methodists had some rights which men were bound to respect" and having fined the dis turbers, permitted them to depart. This was the first and last attempt to tear down the place of worship. It was. no uncommon thing to divide their forces,

who is now serving his third year with us. During the first year of Bro.
 Smiths pastorate extra meetings were held for many weeks, during the win ter, and large number of conversions was the result.
 During this series of meetings revi- val band was organized with H. M.
 Tower as leader and Andrew Moorhead
 assistant. The band numbered about fifty earnest men, who were an inspira7 tion to the pastor and a means in Gods
 hands of winning many souls for the Master. In August, 1901, Bro. Smiths usual vacation was extended to give him the opportunity of going abroad. After an absence of ten weeks, during
 which he visited the principal places of
 interest in Europe and the Holy Land, he returned to us strengthened in body and enriched in mind.
 Beginning with the week of prayer, 1902, extra services were held every night, at which Bro. Smith preached. At the end O. two weeks, having con- tracted severe cold, he was stricken with pneumonia and obliged to give up all work for about two months. The
 meetings, however, were continued through January, being conducted by the brethren, assisted by the pastors of
 the city, and were blessed of God in the | conversion of many souls About one
 hundred and fifty have been added to the church during this pastorate. ;.

 Methodist churches in this city and
 Hamden put together, amounting to l seventy thousand dollars. Nearly the entire amount has been paid in. Grace

 We find siXty-six members. eleven of whom were cOlored. As We look back over this period, We notice how slow as the growth of the church. We would materially suppose that more than sixty-six persons would have been found within the Methodist fold. New England soil was cold and unCou-
 genial. The warm, emotional nature of Methodism adapts itself more readily to dwellers of sunny cline. During the years that our church was strug- gIing for existence in New England, it had increased in other parts of our country from twenty thousand to two hundred thousand. But New England
 has changed. and to-day the hard theology, stern politics and rugged so- cialism have given way to more low
 ing and tender life. We now pass over a period of thirty-eight years and find Rev. J. E.
