PROTECTION FOR INDIANS.
Congressman Curtis Speaks of Provi-
sions in the Statehood Measure.


WASHINGTON, March 29.-Several
features of the new Statehood bill
were discussed before the House Com
mittee on Territories to-day by Repre-
sentative Curtis of Kansas. Curtis
urged that the constitutions of the new
States be required to contain ample
provision for the protection of the In
dams in their treaty rights with the
United States. Some features of the
bill which have not heretofore been
made public are that the State to be
known as Oklahoma shall be entitled
to five Representatives in the House of
Representatives The State of Arizona
is to have two Representatives. The
capital of Oklahoma is to be Guthrie
and that of Arizona Santa Fe.
The bill appropriates 100000 to
defray the expenses Of the Constitu-
tional Convention for Arizona and
SIS, 200 for the same purpose for Okla
homa. Four sections in each town
ship in Arizona are set apart as school
lands.
The full committees of Terri
tories will met to consider the bill
Thursday.

MAJORITY SHOULD RULE.

According to this the majority determine
and make the law and the minority must obey
or go elsewhere. In our thought there is no
place for resistance to law or for revolution to
overthrow the decisions of the ballot. We DO
not live in Panama and have no canals to
sell. This duty of obedience to the law being
conceded lit being confessedly the principle
upon which republican government is founded.
why stop to consider it in relation to munich
pal government? No will seriously con-
tend that there is an obligation to obey the
law of the State or nation and none to obey
the ordinances of a city therefore. why dis
cuss that which all admit to be true?
Although cCnfessedly true. there are, never
theless. some thoughts concerning it worthy of
special consideration. some things which make
it fitting that the duty of obedience to law in
a city should be- pressed upon our attention.
The ordinances o. city are its special laws.
Undoubtedly the laws of State are enforced
within the limits of the municipality. The
criminal law of the State is potent within
as without the city limits. To kill a man in
side the city is Just as much murder as to kill
him in the Country. And speaking generally,
the laws of the State and the nation operate
as fully within as without the limits of a
city. But in addition to those laws are the
ordinances of the city enacted dy the city
authorities and operative only within the city.
There are thus more laws requiring obedience.
Further. the ordinances are laws of special
character. and by reason thereof justify spe
cial attention

When a Simple Home Remedy Cures

When a Simple Home Remedy Cures.
Why do physicians always advise an
operation for the cure of hemorrhoids,
or piles? Are they unconsciously in
fluenced by the dicta of operating sur
geons, who stoutly assert and maintain
that all other treatments are merely
palliative, and that the knife affords
the only means of cure?
There could be no greater fallacy, as
the worst possible cases of piles are
permanently cured by the use of Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, which is in suppository
form, is applied directly to the source
of the complaint, and removes the
cause. which an operation does not.
''I have been sufferer from piles for
over forty years, and after trying
everything 1 could hear or read of.
without benefit or relief, came to the
conclusion to give Pyramid Pile Cure
a trial, and 1 can truly say it has given
me. entire satisfaction; it is a wonder
full remedy. The bleeding has entirely
ceased, the protruding has stopped,
there is no longer any itching, and I
feel no swelling of the parts; in fact I
feel like a new man.
II had to wear truss for several
years, to keep the bowel up, but 1 have
now discarded it, after using six boxes
OF Pyramid Pile Cure. I think after
forty years of suffering, the six boxes
was a small amount to make such an
agreeable change, as I was unable TO
do any work that required stopping in
the last eight years. 1 recommend
Pyramid Pile Cure to every one with
whom 1 come in contact, as 1 consider
it beyond price" Geo. w. Ivey, Con-
federate Soldiers Home, Richmond.
Va.
We vouch for the truth and accuracy
of the above testimonial, and urge all
sufferers to purchase a fifty cent pack
age of this famous remedy at the near
est drug store, and give it a trial to-
night. Accept no substitutes, and re-
member there is no remedy Just as
good
The Pyramid Drug Co, Marshall
Mich, publish a little book on the
causes and cure of'piles, and will glad
ly send it free to any address.

|URIST'S VIEWS
ON CITIZENSHIP
Civic Purity and Obedience
to Law Are First Requisite,
Says Chief Justice Brewer
EQUALITY AS A BASE
Distinguished Speaker Talks
on High Ideals in Govern
ment to Chicago Audience

CHICAGO, March 29.-"Waste no
time or strength over trivial differences
concerning modes and methods Enlist
under the single banner of civic purity,
righteousness and obedience to law.
Enlist not for one campaign only, but
for the war" This was the remedy
for the publication of vice offered by
Justice David ]. Brewer of the United
States Supreme Court in an address
here tonight under the auspices of the
Municipal Lecture Association. JUS
tice Brewers theme was obedience to
Law the First Civic Duty" and his
discourse was listened to with marked
interest by an audience that filed the
Auditorium Theater.
Justice Brewer spoke as follows:
1t is trulsm that all should obey the law.
II Is part of the Anglo Saxon's political
creed. Especially is this true wherever the
law is not made for the citizen but where the
citlzen makes the law. If number of men
unite in a partnership equal terms. I'M
doubleday the ma jority should control and the
minority submit to their judgment quit the
partnership. Ours is a government of the peo-
pie. by the people and for the people.
The underlying principle of republican in
stitutions is equality Each man is entitled to
one vote and no more One mans vote is as
good and no better than anothers. Never,
however, look upon it as property, something
for barter and sale 1t should be to every true
American like the water of life, without
1ty is the basic principle of political life,
however short we may come OF realizing II.

CAPITAL A MODEL CITY.

Again the strict enforcement of municipal
regulations means much, not merely for the
physical safety and comfort but also for the
moral health of the community. The thought

be secured in all cities only when a per-

CRIME IN CITIES.

And the first thing which l wish to suggest
is that there is violation Of law in a
city than elsewhere. There is more crime in
a city than in the country.
There many reasons for this. One is
the city is the abiding place of the criminal.
concealment are greater. Now, vice and
erty is and the multitudes are. There also
they find their friends and sympathizers In
such localities and amid such surroundings
their business flourisheS.
Another cause is the heterogeneousness of a
city's population. No one of our large cities
is filled with people of a single race. The
world has been pouring multtudes on our
shores from every race and cline and they
gravitate toward our large cities Even in
staid old Boston there more Irishmen than
Americans. Chicago is pre-eminent in this
enormous, but it is made up not from a single
race, but from many. To many of them gov
eminent is an enemy and law means tyranny.
Many find pleasures and practices they have
been accustomed to at home land which hav-
ing been accustomed to they feel among
their inalienable rights taken away altogether
restricted by municipal laws and police
regulations. Is it strange that they fret at
such laws and regulations and disregard them
when possible?
/ have thus spoken of some of the causes
of the greater violation in the city than in the
country. Let me now turn your attention to
order to fully appreciate this must con-
slider why it is that there are so many minute
police regulations in city, so many THINKS
forbidden by such regulations which the State
does not deem necessary to forbid, when done
in the country.

WHAT LIBERTY MEANS.

Contrast living his farm in the coun-
try, half mile from any neighbor, with one
living in the midst of a densely populated
city. How many more things the former can
do without injury or annoyance to others.
And the true idea of liberty is not doing
whatever ones judgment or wishes suggest,
but the right of doing those things which do
not interfere with the wellbeing and happiness
OF others The rights of others are the bound
aries of every mans liberty. The farmer $
wife may throw the ,slops from her SRSitchen
on the ground; the farmer may put his pig
pen in front of his parlOr; he may burn soft
coal and let the black smoke pour out of his
chimney; he may store gunpowder or nitro
glycerin or gasoline in his barn: he may drive
his horse automobile fast as
he pleases within the limits of his farm
he may let his hogs at WILL within his
own enclosure If he is content to have bugs
and bacteria about him; If he is willing to
risk the chances of his life or limb the law
permits it, But place the same man in a
city and he must be restrained in these re-
spects because otherwise he offends or en-
dangers others. AS you stand beneath the
awful shadow of the Iroquois disaster think
for a moment how much it would have meant
to this city if all reasonable precautions
against fire had been prescribed by ordinance
and enforced by municipal officials. Vain is it
to trust each individual to impose on himself
the needed restraints. Many are ignorant of
their necessity; many Indifferent to them
Only the strong of municipal law can
secure protection to all against the ignorance
indifference of the individual

PAID DEARLY FOR CAUTION.
Woman's Distaste for Publicity Cost
Purse and Handbag.

For years Mrs. Storey's life had
been haunted by the fear that some
day she might be called upon to serve
as a witness in court. Her grand
mother was witness once. and when
Mrs. Storey was little girl she used
to hear all about it. Grandma, 1t ap-
pears. had been so scared she couldn't
tell the judge her own name.
and" said Mrs. Storey to her hus-
band, "if there is anything more dis
graceful than to he unable to tell
your own name, I'd like to know what
it is"
In order to reduce the possibilities
OF such a calamity to minimum
Mrs. Storey would walk on with deaf
ened ears and averted head whenever
she happened to be near a fire, fight
or the scene of an accident. Only the
other day she had occasion to shut
her eyes and ears to the seething
world about her. She was waiting in
the Grand Central station for Mr.
Storey who had gone around to the
baggage room to check a trunk.
Presently she became aware that
SDIHStHluS eSCltlllS was HdppeHlHS
close beside her Hastily she shut
her eyes and stuck her fingers into
her ears, but before these protective.
measures could be accomplished she
learned that a female thief had
snatched handbag which she had
found lying on the floor. and was be-
ing pursued by an excited crowd. Not
being entirely devoid of the curiosity
of her sex. Mrs. Storey would have
liked to know more, but the old fear
of being detained as witness held
her inert until her husbands return.
Then she ventured to ask II they had
caught the thief.
Yes said Mr.. Storey. but they
couldn't do anything with her. Ev
eryone was confident the bag didn't
belong to her but as nobody appeared
to claim it the policeman had to let
her 60"
At that Mrs. Storey opened her
eyes. Il am so glad.' she said, that
it Is all over. am ready to go now.
But-oh. dear me, where are my purse
and handbag? had them here
moment ago. They must have
dropped-oh. wonder"
Yes" said Mr.. Storey. heartlessly
