INDIAN As A LAWYER.

Snyder is 26 years old, six feet In
height, with an athletic figure and the
ease of bearing that is conferred by,
his descent through centuries of forestl
ancestry. He lives on the reservation
with the 200 other members Of his
tribe. He married Seneca girl and
they have two children.
Several members of the Seneca tribe
have risen to distinction In the call
ings OF civilization. Gen. Ely Parker, !
who served as a civil engineer on the |
staff of Gen. Grant and who copied
from Grants notes the famous terms !
of surrender which were given to Gen. |
Lee. was full blooded Seneca and al
graduate of the Albany Normal school.
Oscar Snyder, father OF the applicant
for admission to the bar, was school,
mate of James S. Whipple. state for
est, fish and game commissioner. He
was killed In a railway accident.
His son was educated at the Carlisle'
Indian school, and he is now studying
law in an Office In Salamanca. He Isl
permitted to practice in the peace
makers court. which is the Indian
court on the reservation and which
corresponds to the county court in the
judicial plan of the state. He cannot
take the regular state bar examination
without an enabling act because he Is
not a citizen.
He might abandon his tribal relation
and become citizen were 1t not for
the fact that by leaving his tribe he
would sacrifice his interest in the
tribal possessions. which are held in
common. A bill Is now pending In
congress to dissolve the tribal relation
of the Senecas and to make them all
citizens. When this bill becomes a
law the tribal property will be d.
vided among the members of the tribe
and each Seneca will have about $4,000
with which to start on his career Of
independence. Snyder therefore finds
himself placed in a dilemma. II he
waits until the property Is allotted he
will be too old to become a member
of the state bar. and II he anticipates
his citizenship by leaving his tribe he
will lose his share of the tribal lands.
Senator Fancher's bill opens way
out of this difficulty by providing that
Snyder may be examined for the bar,
notwithstanding the fact that said
Snyder is not citizen, provided that
at the time Of applying for admission
to such examinations he shall be 9TH
erwise qualified to take the same and
shall comply with the rules of the
court of appeals and of the state board
of law examiners in RESP & thereto;
and upon passing such animation
the said Snyder shall be admitted to
practice law in this state with the
same powers and subject to the same
duties as II he were citizen"
J Friendly relations exist between the
Senecas and their white neighbors
some OF whom have been adopted into
the tribe as a mark of esteem. Com.
missioner Whipple was thus adopted q
| few weeks ago at formal ceremony
which was a great event on the res.
ervation. He received the Indian
name OF Odonjea. The ceremony OF
, adoption was frequently practiced by
, the Indians as means of supplying
I the losses caused by their constant
: warfare with each other, and many
white prisoners In the early days owed
their lives to adoption.

Scotchman, formerly of Granttown,
Scotland, but now a member of the
New York brokerage firm of Leavitt
& Grant.
He was older than Mr.. Mumford and
broader in his views. They met at

thoress. He was immensely taken
with her literary work and never
wearied of praising 1t to his friends
so different from Mr.. Mumford, whom
1t bored quite thoroughly.
Mr.. Grant frankly told his friends
he believed there were plenty of clever
women who could follow their talents
and at the same time be good wives
and mothers. He held that there
could be no incompatibility between
the art of a woman and the helpful
comeraderie of the home.
Finally the time came when he felt
that he could say this same thing to
Mrs. Mumford. He did. His answer
was a whispered Yes" Just as the
young college man, Mumford, had re
ceived II ~ years before. But this
time it was more qualified one.

the mother, lust as she always has

why a woman cannot be a good wife

some time to her talents.
Mr.. Grant understands this per,
fectly and is just as interested in my

And so she took up her pen again
and wrote.

Mrs. Mumford wanted to write. Mr.
Mumford didn't want her to write
There was the problem. He wanted
his wife to entertain, to go out with
him, to give him all her spare time. to
spend her energies within her home
and not between the covers Of the
magazines.
Mrs. Mumford said MOI" She in
sisted that she could be a good wife
and good mother, and still give rein
to her literary ambitions. Neither
side would yield. There were quar-
rels. SO. after five years of married
life, in 1899, Mrs. Mumford took hei
boy and left her husband alone in his
New York home. AS for her, she went
to California and acquired a legal resi-

Gull Blooded Seneca Indian Who May
Soon Practice Law In New York;
wealthy bachelor largely interested in
oil wells.
In the formidable Indian league of
the Six Nations, which once held in
subsection the territory extending from
the Hudson TO Lake Superior and from
the st. Lawrence to the Delaware, the
Seneca nation played prominent
part. When the league was finally
broken and its members SC: ->ered af-
ter the revolutionary war the white
men took possession of its lands and
the remnant OF the seneca tribe was
finally settled upon reservation near
Salamanca, In Catiaraugus county.
The Senecas still live on this reserva-
ton as a tribe, retaining their tribal
customs and traditions. At the same
time they have adopted much from
the civilization which surrounds them,
and they mingle freely and on equal
terms with their white neighbors.
In the veins of the young Seneca
lawyer runs some of the oldest and
purest blood in America. The line of
his descent goes back to the times be-
fore Columbus crossed the Atlantic
and Is lost In the traditions of his
race. OF all the Indian tribes the Six
Nations were the proudest and their
merciless league represented the ex-
IRENE advance of Indian statecraft.
