A noted American a few days
ago in one of those friendly gath.
eringe Of Anglo-Americans in
London threw out the hint that
there should be a monument OF
George Washington in the English
capital. The suggestion was we'll
received, and has led to immedi.
ate action. The executiv We Of the
Pilgrims Club has appointed q
committee to give effect to the
suggestion. II was resolved thai
the subscriptions for the monu.
meut be confined to British SUBJ
jects. Archdeacon Sinclair took
an active part in the preliminary
work, and Ia the course OF his ad
dress he said: "Englishmen have
at last fully recognized the great
qualities of Washington. | feel
assured that nothing will be more
popular in this country than such
tribute to that great man Of Eng.
lish birth, who has done so much
Tor the worlds history, not only
Tor the young nation across the
sea, but for Great Bitain as we'll.

meeting that be was authorized tC

For the Council
w. i. TROTT.
No Cherokee Yoter should be

No Cherokee voter should be
misled by wild and extravagant
reports that may be circulated
on the eve OF election. The
facts at the present time indi-
cate beyond a doubt the ell
ection Of Cookson by a ma
jority Of from fyo-hundred to
eight-hundred. There is no
even betting on Rogers. Those
who are rash enough to gamble
on Rogers want odds two to
one and more. The Rogers
forces have spent a good deal
OF money and wind, but the
best informed among them
have already thrown up their
hands and quit the fight. Both
vinita precincts will be carried
by Cookson. The reports
from all over the Cherokee ma
ton are encouraging, and the
National party people are sim
ply iubilant.
