q AOS lS ~ AdStlAE OVCl
two weeks, the question as to
whether or not Coffee county
should have dispensaries, was
settled by the election held on
Saturday last.
The bill introduced by Senator
F. L. Sweat and passed by the
state Legislature authorizing the
establishing of a dispensary in
Douglas, Coffee county, and in
othertowns of said county of Cof-
fee, having a population OF over
400 in which the county commits
sloners might see fit to dose, pro-
vided that an election should be
called by the ordinary of Coffee
not later than 80 days from the
approval of the act, for the pur-
pose ratification. AS provided
for by the act, the ordinary called
an election to be held on the 18th
day of August.
From the passage of the act
there has been an organized and
systematic effort put forth by
those in favor of dispensaries for
the purpose of having the actrati-
fed by vote of the people, while
those opposed to legalizing the
sale of spurious liquors by es-
tablishing dispensaries were on
the alert from the very beginning,
and by united effort succeeded in
killing the thing provided for by
the act.
The result of the election came
as somewhat of a surprise to most
of the people interested in the
fight. While the people opposed
to establishing dispensaries were
confident that they would be able
to cast majority of the votes,
yet very few had any idea of such
landslide in their favor.
The total mum Der of votes cast
in all the precincts were 1908,
274 in favor of dispensaries and
819 against.
The Douglas precinct which
was expected to go wet by par
ties on both sides came up with
a majority against the act by a
vote of 173 to 154. AS Douglas
was the town specified by the
act in which the county COM
missioners were to establish and
maintain a despcnsarv it was
thought that the people might be
influenced by the idea that it
would be benefit to the town
and cast a heavy vote in favor of
lit.
Out of the eight precincts in
the county not single one cast
a majority of votes in favor of
the dispensarY. In three of the
precincts not a single vote was
cast in its favor, while in one pre-.
cinct only one was cast.
The vote by precincts was as
follows:
Willacoochee-for g, against
122.
Pearson-for O, against 1856.
| McDonald-for 0, against SO.
Douglas 154, against 173,
| Wooten-for so, against u.
Pickren-for 1, against so.

There was abundant evidence to prove
when the principal claimant went to
school, when she returned and to her resi-
dence after she was married.
Major Scott, acting Indian agent, tes-
titled that he had been compelled to allot
several Leech Lake Indians at places on
the Cass Lake and Winnibigashish res
ervations, because there were no lands for
t. EN- or the LIE &c, lake reservation. He
also testift d that Mrs. Lydick and her
two children had always been carried on
the rolls and received their annuities. His
evidence did a great deal toward estab-
lishi"g the perfect right of Mrs. Lydick

The opposition hopes to defeat the
awards by proving that after her rcturn
from school,, and hnr marriage with George
I.vdick she pr. tically relinquishcd her
right to take an allotment anywhere, and
in fact, had lost all claims. If the depart
ment should take this view of the case it
would be establishing an entirely new pre-
cedent, for it would mean that Indian
children who had been sent to schools,
and were endeavoring to better their con-
dition and habits must continue to live on
the reservation, wear blankets, long hair
and not sever their tribal relations or
improve themselves.
AS far as the testimony taken before
Inspector Nesler goes, it certainly has es-
tablished more firmly than ever Mrs Ly-
dicks perfect right to the allotments

spector Nesler Of the department Of the
interior at the sub-agency on the 18th and
18th to determine the rights of Nellie Ly-
dick and her two minor children to allot-
nnents on section 16. This case has been
before the public and the department for
four years. Last winter the secretary of
the interior awarded three eighties on
section 16 TO Mrs. Lydicll and her two
minor children. The decision was sweep
ing one. for it not only gave the claim
ants the land, but all the improvements
upon it.
The claimants were not disposed to take
advantage Of the permission to confis-
cate the improvements made and so in
formed the owners. The squatters We're
so pleased with the very generous offer
OF Mrs. Lydicl1 that they Immediately
withdrew all opposition. Apparently the
matter was closed with the decision of
the secretary of the interior and the prop-
osition of Mrs. Lydick. However, for some
reason Senator Nelson was not satisfied
with the decision and he asked that the
case be reopened This request was
granted and Inspector Nesler ordered here.
Attorney e. NJ. Stanton represented the
claimants and Attorney Rabbit, of Wash.

ing the Lydicks.
