Jurisdiction of Surprising sweep
Welded by Cherokees.

Kansas City Journal-There is
good deal being said about the citizen
ship of the adopted whites OF the Cher
okee nation and the law which gave I,
them their citizenship. The law was
passed many long years ago and pro-
vided that a white man who desired
to marry a Cherokee woman should
first procure a petition signed by ten
citizens with blood, attesting that ne
was of good moral character and
would, in their opinion, make good
citizen of the Cherokee nation. This
presented to the district clerk of any
of the nine districts and a payment OF
$40 would get license to wed the
Cherokee woman. This law had two
provisions of forfeiture. One was the
resistance of Cherokee authority in
case of criminal prosecution, and the
other was the marriage to a white
woman after the former marriage to
the Cherokee woman. This was called
/ marrying OUT
The Cherokees up to the abolish
ment of their courts held jurisdiction
over the ADOPTED man ana even Gull
victed some few of murder, and ex-
ecuted them This was allowed by
Judge Parker of Fort Smith, who was
very strenuous, and even the supreme
court at Washington did not interfere.
So the citizenship was complete as to
jurisdiction. There was nothing in
the inter-malri age law that made any
restrictions ip heirship of property at
all, but in 1895, Dec. 16, the council
passed an amendment to this law
which provided that no white man
who married a Cherokee woman from
, that date should acquire any rights to
any moneys or to any lands, but should
acquire political rights only; and since
that Gate no one who married Chero-
kee woman mas claimed anything but
the right to 1--we in the country. This
is the law and present situation. The
Dawes Commission has looked upon
the adopted white as full citizen, and
so have the officers Ct the government,
but the courts have not yet passed on

A WALL STREET POWER.

Had you, at that time Richard visit
ed that gentleman, written Mr.. Bayard
a letter, you would have addressed it
to Mr., Robert Lance Bayard, and any,
one who saw you do it would have
gazed in wonder and respect to think
you were upon terms of personal cor
respondence with that binding meteor
of speculation. Mr.. Bayard sat in his
room at 80 Broad like an astrologer in
his tower cell; he considered the stars
and cast the horoscopes of companies.
That done, he took profitable advan-
tage of his precedence.
In the kingdom of stocks Mr.
Bayard's position was unique He,
like Napoleon, was without model
and without a shadow. He constructed
no corporations, showed no companies
from shore; he stood at the ticker ana
took his money off the tape Whenever
he had won dollar he had risked a
dollar
In person Mr.. Bayard was slim, ele-
CANT, thoroughbred, with blood as red
and pure as the blood of racing
horse. To see him was TO realize the
silk and steel whereof he was COM
pounded. There was a vanity about
him, too; but it was noble vanity, as
though king were vain. His brow
was full and grave, his face dignified,
his eye thoughtful, and he knew men
in the dark by feel of bark as wood
men know tree. He stepped about
with a high carriage of the head as
might one who has prides well found.
ed His health was even, his nerves
were oak, he owned military courage
that remained cool with victory,
steady with defeat. 1t was these
which rendered Mr.. Bayard the
Bourse-force men accounted him, ana
compelled consideration from folk
most powerful whenever they would
float An enterprise or foray field of
stocks. Did oil or sugar or steel come
into the street with purpose of re-
venge or profit, its first care was a
peace-treaty with Mr. Bayard. THAI
was not because oil or steel or sugar
loved, but because it feared him. The
King might not hunt in Sherwood
without permission of Robin Hood nor.
