POWER OF THE
COMMISSION
Trouble Ahead For The Cher
Okee People.

When shall we ever strike the land
ing? Every CherokN Is a party to
the great transaction Of allotting or
land0 and therefore has right to
talk about it. So, l desire to say
few things myself, trying to say
them as suaYely as my nature viii
admit.
The honorable chairman of the
Dawes commission, it is reported, has
said "There are 1000 contest cases
yet to be heard by the Dawes commits
sion or it's successors and that ''af-
ter the deeds are delivered there re-
mains nothing to be done in the Chero-
kee nation but the hearing Of con-
tests"
Under these statements various
Questions present themselves. VIII
1t not be unbusinesslike, and unsafe,
to deliver deeds before the settlement
Of contests? Before such settlement
how can it be known as the party who
may be entitled to the deed2 Would
1T not be more In accordance with in
telligent business usage TO find the
rightful claimant In contest before
the deed IS delivered? Otherwise 1t
might happen that the wrong party
would win the property In contest.
Mr. Bixby is quoted as saying the
delivery of the 400, 900 Cherokee deeds
will be accomplished In six
months, and that "the allotting Of
land viii be finished By July i" except
that for infants ia the other tribes, "
and that the hearing Of contest cases
"can be finished in year, Then
what? Why, just see this and cor
rect me. The allotment Of land
sSJpped, the deeds all delivered, and
contest cases still under hearing with
out the knowledge as to the party who
will prove TO be the owner Of the
property under contest. Nor IS this
all--nor the worst. Before these con-
tests are settled the allotment Of land
win nav. been discontinued, so that
the defeated party In the contest cam
not file on other land In place OF what
he had lost In the trial. Then what2
must he submit to the loss and go
without his rightful share ofour lands2

do know, namely. In nearly hun
dred years OF bumming round on this
planet, and BY means Of reading, dis
cussl0n and observation, watching the
ways Of the world, have never be-
come witness Of anything that, In
foint OF ENHANCEMENT and confusion,
equals that Of allotting the lands Of
the Cherokee nation.
Why 50 many thousand contests
anyhow Is it because people did not
know their own property, or is il be-
cause they want to rob one another

Forget About Your Stomach

If your digestion is bad the vital

Foreign Financial.

LONDON. Nov a-The. demand for
money increased in the market today; the
supplies were limited despite the fact that
considerable sums were obtained from the
Bank of England yesterday by discounting
short bills Prices on the Stock exchange
were firm and trading was moderately ac-
tive Most OF the movements were up
ward, the market being stimulated by the
cheerfulness of continental bourses on the
resumption Of work in Russia The whole
list was more buoyant than for some time
past, dealers anticipating the long delayed
revival of public business. Consols were
in good request. Home rails were quietly
firm. Americans opened steady and inn
proved in many cases to above parity on
New York support. Local operators were
cautious though bullishly inclined. Later
anticipations OF short covering in New
York hardened prices further and they
closed firm at below the best points OF
the day. Foreigners generally were firm
especially Russians, though they closed
easier. japanese were irregular. Kaffirs
improved on bear covering and Paris sup
port. Japanese imperial IS of 1904 were
quoted at l02h.
BERLIN, Nov. I.-Prices on the Bourse

CATTLE-There was a moderate run OF
cattle this morning, but II was smaller
than the run for the same day last week
and was also smaller than the run for the
same day one year ago.
There were a couple OF punches OF good
corn-fed steers on the market, but the bad
effect of the trade last week on warmed up
and short-fed cattle has sort of slowed
up the run on that kind of stun, so that
this morning there were only a couple of
loads In sight. There was a fairly good
demand for beef steers on the part of the
packers, with the result that there was
fairly active trade with the market steady
10 strong.
There was a reasonable run OF cows and
heifers on the market today and the de-
mand for good stun was active. Packers
were looking for good stock suitable for
their purposes and local buyers were out
with quite a string Of outside orders, with
the result that the trade was active and
5aiOc higher on the good choice kind Of
stock. while the common and poorer kinds
went at prices that were steady to sc
higher.
There was only a fair run OF stockers
and feeders this morning and yard traders
were out in the yards at an early
hour after the cattle and a. a result
the more desirable kind Of stock found a
ready sale at prices that were steady 20 &c
higher than yesterday, while the common
10 medium grades sold generally at prices
that were steady to a little stronger than
yesterday.

Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, Nov. A.-Proit taking on a
large scale caused sharp decline In the
market rallied somewhat the close was
weak and near the lowest price of the day
with the May option of &qhc. Corn I and
visions were PFC to 71Ac lower.
Weakness prevailed in the wheat pit
throughout the day. The feature Of trading
option General profit taking in that de-
livery caused active selling in May, re-
options. There was little in the news Of
the day to encourage the bulls. The
domestic situation continued favorable to
the bears, receipts in the northwest being
liberal and the weather all that could be
desired for the movement of the crop.
From Argentina came reports of excellent
weather for the ripening of grain. A prt-
vate dispatch said that harvesting in that
country would probably commence before
supplied the chief incentives to selling.
Toward the middle of the session an in
crease Of $4,000 bu. in the worlds visible
streets, gave added impetus to the de-
cline in prices. The market at no time
showed strong disposition to rally, SEN
timent being bearish until the end. The
close was weak with prices near the lowest
point Of the day. May opened hc to &c
and then broke to S6qs6hc. Final quota
tons were at S62saS61ac. December ranged
between S3bc and S5c and closed at SS%c
Clearances of wheat and -four were equal
TO $500 bu. Primary receipts were 1855, 0OC
bu., against 1.SS2,OOO bu. one year ago
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts Of l,9l7 cars. against 1857 cars last
week and ,227 cars year ago.
The corn market was weak early In the
day because of continued selling of May by
several heavy holders. Excellent weather
for the movement of grain was strong in
spiration TO the selling movement. Weak
ness Of wheat was also bearish influence
Later In the day shorts covered freely
causing complete recovery. The close
was steady May opened n shade to Aq&C
lower at CSC 20 43Sc, sold off to 43hc anC
closed at 4SAm43hc. Local receipts were
3Sl cars with nine cars of contract grade.
Despite the break in wheat the oats mar
ket was remarkably steady. There wal
some selling by cash houses and loca

commission houses May opened unchanged

SHEEP-The run of sheep today was
moderately large, being considerably
week and about twice as large as the re-
ceipts for the same day one year ago
Trains were in In good season this morn
ing and the most of the stun was In shape
to be shown at an early hour. From this
II might be expected that the trade on
sheep was active, but on the contrary It
was inclined to be a little slow and dull.
As was the case yesterday there was a
rather small run OF fat sheep, the most of
the stock consisting of feeders of only
fair quality.
As has been stated the receipts OF fat
stock were small and the packers were
evidently wanting a little good stun suit
able for killing purposes. Buyers were out
at the barns AT an early hour ana were
buying good desirable killers at prices that
were generally steady with yesterday, $.
There were a few loads OF lambs on the
market and they found ready sale at prices
that were steady 20 strong
There was a good supply Of feeders on
the market this morning, but the demand
for the kind of stun i'm sight was rather
slow and dull. There were quite a lot OF
old feeder wethers on the market today
and these did not find very receptive
ers In. but they appeared to be looking
for the better class OF stun, but In spite
of the poor demand prices on feeders
closed the day just about steady with
yesterday.
