territory indictments have been
found against number of prominent
men for frauds upon the Chickasaw
nation. Among those indicted are
some of the officers of the Indian ter
ritory. Treasurer Ward, Governor
johnson and Ex-Governor Mosley of
the Ghickasaw nation, the head of
the Chickasaw bank, and three law
yers have been indicted With them
is indicted Ben Colbert, who is the
presidents friend, rough rider and
United States marshal.
The fight which Secretary Hitch
cock has made against these alleged
land thieves has involved hard and
uphill work. He has been opposed by
almost all the politicians of the west.
He has been forced to deal with a
situation with has troubled many
previous secretaries of the interior,
and which has been complicated by
relations of United States senators to
the land depredators. The government
has been deprived by these criminals,
some of them high placed, of millions
of acres of public land. 1t is not an
exaggeration to say that many of the
great fortunes of the western states,
especially of the lumber and mining
states, have their foundation in stolen
tracts of land, which should have
gone to honest purchasers and thus to
the profit Of the government. There
are in some of the offices of the United
States district attorneys in the west
pigeon -holed indictments which, if
tried, might blast many name
which now stands fair in the records
of honest business. 1t may be con-
ceived how powerful has been the in
fluence brought to bear upon congress
and upon the government to save the
land thieves of the west from the
punishment which they have deserv-
ed.
All the more is it to the honor of
Secretary Hitchcock that, notwith-
standing the power of the men against
whom he directed his assault, he has
persevered until he has conquered, at
least so far as to bring the accused
before the courts of Justice. In in
viting the hostility of these land
thieves, his very position in the cabi-
net has been imperiled. Those who
are familiar with the talk of Wash
ington are aware that his detractors
have been numerous enough and
powerful enough to think that they
could displace him. His retirement
has been prophesied. 1t was once ex-
pected, because it was said that he
had not been successful in managing
the Republican politics of Missouri.
He has won a great triumph and he
is deserving of great honor.

ATHENA, SEPTEMBER s. 1905

At North Yakima the first evidences
of friction are beginning to crop out
relative to rights where large irriga-
tion projects have been completed. 1t
is but the forerunner of what in the
future is to be met with and settled i'll
districts destined to blossom as the
rose from water now flowing i'll all
the big lakes and rivers. The time
will come when irrigated agriculture
in the Middle West will absorb every
drop of water falling within the terri
tory, and at our door the channels OF
the Columbia and the Snake will be
dry beds of sand and gravel. And
when the irrigation canals and irri-
gated farms Of the Middle West will
dry up the Ohio and the Mississippi
rivers, just as irrigation i'll the West
has dried up Tular Lake i'll California,
and is rapidly drying up the great
Salt Lake in Utah, the floods of the
Mississippi and its tributaries will be
led out through a network of canals,
large and small, and stored in reser
voirs and every drop devoted to bene-
fetal use, use that will be SO valu-
able that its value for navigation will
count for nothing in comparison. It
may be a great many years before
this will happen, but it is certain to
come. In no other way can the vast
population with which this country
will TEEN within few hundred years
be provided with the food to sustain

SECRETARY HITCHCOCK.
(Boston Herald.)

Secretary Hitchcock has an enor-
mously extensive Jurisdiction Among
the subjects with which he has to
deal are those connected with the ad-
ministration of the public lands. The
country knows that the government
and the honest settlers have been de-
spoiled and robbed by land thieves for
many years. 1t knows, also, III a
general way, that the Indians, cs-
pecially those Of the Indian territory,
have suffered from the depredations
of white men who have made the
Indians and their lands their quarry.
These land thieves are now especially
tho onemies Of Secretary Hitchcock.
Their hostility is one of his claims to
honor, and is a decoration. The land
frauds in Oregon aud California are
known to be in court. We hear of
similar legal proceedings in New
Mexico. Fraudulent entries ale al
legged to have been made there aud ar
rests have followed. In the Indian

With exceptional abundance of

THE ..pKoTEorIoN" FETCH
(oregonian.

(Oregonian.
There would be no protective tariff
if somebody were not to get adyant-
age from it, at expense of others. In
the nature of things all cannot profit
from subsidies or bonuses, which all
must pay. Some will have the adj
vantage. One class or set may pass
the burden on to another; but there
must be basis or bottom somewhere.
So the burden is passed on from one
class to another, till at last it falls on
the poorer or more helpless class, who
can pass it on no further. So riches
are accumulated out of the protective
tariff, but by the few who are in posi-
tion to take advantage of it. The
few get rich at the expense of the
many.
But it is a fetch, that is worshiped /;
and there is no way of getting rid of
it, wholly. So we are compelled to
temporize with it. The worship is a
form of syncretism, that penetrates
and permeates both parties, through
and through. The observers and
thinkers of both parties see it and
understand it; but on neither side can
they clear their party of the false
worship. They will sometime, of
course, but they can't now. Local in
terest and personal interest have in
sidious ways and arguments innumer-
able. The worker is easily persuaded
by the tariff beneficiary that he, too,
is beneficiary; for it is alleged that
he would have no wages but for pro-
tective tariff--the profits of which,
however, fall into the pockets of the
monopolist.
Again, there must be revenue, and
from this need it is an easy advance to
the demand of tariff distinctly for
protection. For in most cases tariff
for revenue yields protection, or ex-
clusion, also. So it seems logical.
The aim of protection is to exclude
foreign goods, and to secure profits on
the manufacture of goods at home.
But who gets the profits? The for
tunes of the steel and copper and
sugar kings will tell you. But of
course we will still have ''protec
tion". 1t is supported by the spirit
and genius of illusion, In actual CON
ditions, in our own country, there is
some ground for it; and this is the
basis from which it is carried to ex-
tremes. The abuses cannot be cor
rected nor abated now; but one day
there will be revolt which will up
set the basis of parties. When, no
one can tell. President Roosevelt is a
forceful personality but even he finds
the worship of the fetch too power
full at his time to permit an attempt to
check or abate 1t. To reduce it even
within reasonable limits is, for the
present, apparently impossible.
When the democratic party was last
IN power it merely substituted one
protective system for another; and the
last state of that tariff was more
unjust than the first---insomuch that
President Cleveland denounced it and
refused to affix his signature. II is
impossible, therefore, to turn to the
democratic party for redress Or amend
ment. Such result can come only
through general enlightenment--thc
same as in relation to the civil craze;
which indeed was the more immoral
and irrational of these twin delusions.

The dispatches tell us that an at
tempt to solve "the negro problem is
being made by b. f. Blair, wealthy
negro farmer in Sully county, South
Dakota, where he has started move
mont to found settlement populated
and governed entirely by negroes.
The scheme is to interest negroes in
farming and agricultural pursuits and
get them away from the crowded
cities. Land can be bought near Sully
county, which will be the center of
tho colony, for ~. so an acre and up
ward. The soil is exceedingly fertile,
and il worked industriously will make
excellent farms. Mr. Blair acquired
over 1000 acres of this land from the
government years ago. Only the
respectable aud better class of negroes
will be asked to participate in the
settlement movement. All who desire
to como and are acceptable will be
welcome. The government of the
municipality will DO entirely in tho
hands of negroes. The mayor, county
aud town officials will bo negroes,

Kansas City. Kan, Nov. 1s.-The
Kansas federal court took a hand In
the Joint" crusade in this city Wednes-
day afternoon when W. H. Mackey, Jr.,
United States marshal, posted notices
on about rs "joints" controlled by the
Helm and Rochester brewing compan-
les, to the effect that the fixtures were
in the custody of the marshal under
vrits of reDlevin issued from Judge
PolIock's court. AS the fixtures of the
Imperial brewery are in the custody of
United States officers because Of bank
ruptey proceedings, the effect of the
writs viii be to prevent the seizure of
any more fixtures of these companies,
which control the most of the Joint"
furniture remaining in that city.
The move was made with the greatest
secrecy, none of the transactions being
allowed TO come to the knowledge of
the newspaper representatives at To-
peka. The action in the United States
circuit courts probably means that the
sjoint" keepers are getting ready to
give up the fight.
The replevin suits were brought at
Topeka by the overwhelmingly Col
ey Manufacturing company against the
les, respectively. These companies are
the manufacturers of the fixtures in
the possession Of the brewing COM
panies. The United States marshal was
busy all yesterday afternoon posting
