A recent issue Of the washington

A number Of attorneys representing

Is probably the most important law
suit ever originated in that part OF
the country. The case involves the
right OF about 1000 persons to be put
on the citizenship rolls Of the Choctaw

the richest people per capita in the

hinges the ownership Of not less than

has filed in the supreme court Of the
United States motion praying for
permission to- file a petition in said
court for a writ Of prohibition and for

Chickasaw citizenship court. recently
created. The petitioner alleges that
he applied 70 the Dawes commission
for Identification and enrolment as a
member Of the Chickasaw tribe; that
said commission denied his applica-
tion. whereupon he appealed to the
United States court in the Indian Ter
ritory. There a trial was had de novo.
resulting in a decree in favor Of petit

Der OF said tribe and directing that he
be enrolled as such.
AN appeal was taken 10 the United

the decision Of the lower court valid
and final Subsequently the aforesaid
citizenship court was created and upon
it the power was attempted to DE con

held that the prior judgments OF the
United States court in favor OF the
applicants for citizenship and con.
firmed by the United States court. as
stated, were void. and attempted to set
aside and cancel said judgments. This
led up to the present status whereby

GOVERNMENT FOR PROFIT.

In discussing the appropriations Of
the late congress. Mr. Cannon. chair
man Of the finance committee and
speakerto-be Of the next house. said:
The Republican administration OF
our government. the dominion Of Re
publican policies in both branches Of
congress since 1897. has given us a
system Of taxation that has produced
national treasury richer than was
ever enjoyed BY any nation Of the earth
land rendered possible these great ex-
>ndiinres for the public welfare"
.4s Is the Republican idea Of tax.
'aI1a-- u the collection Of the least
amount necessary for the economical
conduct Of the government.
There Is now a surplus Of nearly
$500 .000. 900 in the treasury. or about
81 per capita has been taken from
the pockets of the people 10 lie In
the vaults or 10 be deposited with
banks 20 be loaned for their private

over 1880 600 900, which means that
$40 per capita are 70 be collected 10
pay the bills.
II this vas done by direct taxation
on property or In any other manner
that would bring II to the personal OBJ
servation of the individual. there would
be such discomfort as would hurl these
tax gatherers from power and outlaw
their kind forever from the seats Of
the mighty.
The whole Republican theory and
practice is that government is an in
stitution Of profit. that economy is not
a matter OF saving in expenditures but
a matter Of gaining In revenues. The
system Of taxation is so constructed
that II takes toll surrepuuously from
all the grist Of production and con.
sumption, but levies practically moth
ing upon accumulated wealth or priv
ilege or income II Is a cunningly de-
vised scheme for taxing the many for
the benefit Of the few. for creating arti-

ONLY REMEDY FOR LVNcHINe.

The supreme court Of Mississippi in
reviewing the conviction for rape re-
fused 10 consider technicalities raised
by counsel for the defense, and the
chief justice took occasion to remark
that technicalities will avail nothing
in the consideration OF such cases.
The Houston Post says that is the
way-and the only way-to stop lynch
ing Mobs as a rule are moved more
by lack OF confidence in the courts
than by disrespect for the laws OF the
land II is within the knowledge Of
every man that numerous guilty per
sons escape justice by the sharp prac.
tice OF criminal lawyers. Indeed. with
a skillful attorney and plenty Of mon
ey on the side OF the defense, the life
penalty for any crime Is the exception.
Under complex laws and. involved
practice, the safeguards designed to
give the innocent the benefit OF the
doubt may be easily stretched TO shield
the guilty. and this occurs so often
that there is reason to despair OF exact
justice by the process Of the courts.
Hence when a fend is caught fresh
from his crime the natural desire for
quick vengeance is inhamed by the
doubt that the courts will adequately
Purish. and passion has its way.
The courts have been altogether toe
