ninety-six," necessarily confirmed the
Kern-Clifton roll, and that the Dawes
Commission, in disregarding it, dis
lobeyed the command of the statute.
If" said the court. the payment by
the Secretary of the Interior was a
compliance with the provision of the
decree for the payment of money, the
refusal of the Dawes Commission to
allow those Same persons to partici-
pate in the common property, as fur
ther provided in the decree, is not a
strict compliance, nor, for that mat
ter, compliance of any kind.'
The case is simplified by the con-
Icession of appellees that the congress
had power to alter the decree and to
adopt other means or ways for the dis
position of the property than there pro-
vided. Indeed, the decree of the court
recognizes this power and the case is
brought TO an interpretation Of the
acts Of congress subsequent to the de-
cree. AS we have already said, we
have reviewed those acts in United
States ex rel. Lowe vs.. Fisher, and,
after further consideration of them
invoked in the case at bar and sup
ported by the very able opinion of the
Court of Chains, we adhere to the
views there expressed. Congress ac-
cepted the decree as a correct inter
probation of Articl TX of the treaty as
to the rights of freedmen. It did not
accept the Kern-Clifton roll as an au-
thentic identification of the individual
freedmen It had been challeged. 1t
had been made up with haste and un-
I der circumstances which caused ques-
ton of its correctness. 1t had not re.
received judicial approval. From the
first to the last 1t was the act of ad-
Iministrative officers. Had it been re
ported to the court and its integrity es-
tablished by the Judgment of the court
! Congress might, indeed, have hesitat-
ed to ignore it. As an act Of merely
administrative officers it had no such
sanction. 1t must be borne in mind
that important rights We're involved
and no good reason could be urged
against, or serious consequences ap-
pretended from another investigation
Those who were entitled to be enroll
ed could again establish their right
Those who were not SO entitled and
who got on the rolls either by mistake
or fraud had no legal ground of com
plant However, We are not required
to consider the reasons which induced
Congress to direct that a roll be made
by the Dawes Commission. Congress
had the power. and. as we have de
cided, exercised it.

POLITICS AND
PEACE OF MIND.

A man who enters politics loses his
peace of mind, according to story told
by Senator Bob" Taylor of Tennessee
to a New York World representative;
81 once knew man from my part of
the country" said Senator Taylor, "who
had nice little farm and was entirely
satisfied with life Some well-meaning
friends, however, came along and per
suaded him to run for the Legislature.
After good bit of coaxing they sue
ceeded and he was defeated. Not con
tent, he decided that at the next election
he would again be a candidate. He was
again defeated, and so on for thirty
years.
''Finally he became convinced that
the people did not want him 10 repre-
sent them in the Legislature and he de-
cided TO commit suicide.
Not wishing TO make failure of the
Job, he bought rope, some kerosene
and revolver, Then, taking his old
boat, he rowed down the river which
ran near his farm until he came TO big,
overhanging tree. He saturated his
clothes with the oil, placed the rope
around his neck and tied it to the tree,
struck a match on his trousers and
kicked away the boat. He then placed
the revolver TO his head and fired
1.-THE revolver shot struck his head
and glanced off, cutting the rope and
letting him fall in the water, which ex-
tinguished the blaze. He waded out,
and when he found himself intact, con-
cluded that Divine Providence had
saved him.
"At the next election he ran on a
reform ticket"

"Yea, let God be true, but every
man a liar" Romans, S:4
said last week that F. and Young
Brown were wrong in allowing old
S. and Elder Y. TO turn them from
following God in His sanctuary.
That does not have in il shadow of
justification for the two stumbling
blocks tits 10 be said with renewed
and insistent emphasis that the church
men, Iaymen or ministers, who cause
any of these little ones to offend, il
were better for them that a milestone
were hanged about their necks and
that they were cast into the sea. So
said Jesus. But +. and Young Brown
were wrong, nevertheless. They
knew if they had thought about it
that God is not for such hypocrisy
and meanness. He hates ii, and He
calls men like +. and Brown to be
His fighters against ii. But II they
turn and run they do not fight. They
are not brave and hardy for righteous
ness when they drop out of the
ranks. Nor are they consistent.
They do not act that way as Ito bust
ness. A man hands them twenty
five dollars in five, dollar gold pieces.
Suppose one piece is found counter
felt; do they throw away the other
four, Not they. Suppose four are
spurious; do they reject the one good
piece? No. Suppose all are spurious;
do they abjure the use of money al
together: No; they see the clever
rascals are abusing good thing.
They reject the abuse, impriSon the
abuserS, but keep the good. Now,
suppose church member, Sunday
school officer, minister, is overtaken
by a fault, or even deliberately steals
the livery of heaven 10 serve the
devil in; is that reason for turning
ones back on the church and on
God? Certainly not. If every
church member were hypocrite, il
every man, in or out of the church,
were liar, still God is true. And it
is the absolute duly of every one TO
be true 10 Him; to vow as Harlan
Page vowed, 81 will live as if were
the only Christian in the world. "
