STATUS OF CATAWRAS
EXPLAINED IN FULL

eiSipoeS III IiiS oppiOpi idliOii VI
not which matter was carried
before Judge Ernest Moore at
Lancaster on May % by at
torneys of this city representing
each side, the judge last week
handed down a decree dismissing
the application to restrain the
present agent from paying to
the mixed breeds contesting, and
the order allows them all to par
ticipate alike. The facts in the
case are as follows: Theoe has
beeh custom among the Indians
for a number of years to allow
the children of the tribe to par
ticipate from the mothers side
only; in other words, if the
mother was an Indian and the
father a white man the children
were allowed to share; but, on
the other hand, if the father
was an Indian and the mother
white woman their children
were not allowed to share in the
appropriation.
Just before the present finan-
cial agent was ready to disburse
the appropriation an Indian,
whose wife is half white and
half Indian, appealed to him
(the present agent) stating that
he had three children who were
more than half Indian and that
they or their mother had never
Oeen allowed to share in the
appropriation, and he asked that
the Attorney General be written
to and his opinion had on the
matter, which was done. The
Attorney General advised that
ne did not see where any dis
tinction could be drawn, for if
the mixed breeds had a right to
share from All Indian mother
and white man, they certainly
had a right to share from an
Indian father and white woman.
So, with this information. the
Indian in question stated to the
present financial agent that he
was going to contest the matter
if he had to carry it into the
courts.
The financial agent then noti-
fed those, who had drawn the
appropriation previously that,
acting upon the opinion of the
Attorney General, unless steps
were taken to prevent it, he
would allow the children by an
Indian father and white mother
to participate the same as those
by the Indian mother and white
father. The contestants i'm
mediately employed w. B. Will
son, Jr,, to represent them, and
the Indians on the other side of
the question employed Herbert
M. Dunlap to represent those
who had not been allowed to
participate. They carried the
matter before Judge Moore, with
the result that he issued a de-
cree dismissing Mr.. Wilson'S
application for injunction.
Mr.. Williams, the present
financial agent, gives out these
facts so that it will be clearly
understood by any one who may
be interested, that the matter is
purely one among the Indians
themselves and that he has no
personal interest in it, and moth
ing whatever to do with bring
ing the suit, as it is fully under
stood by the Indians and the
attorneys representing each side.
He IS simply awaiting the di-
rection of the court in the mat

MATTERS Of INTEREST
FROM OVER The COUNTY
(Y orkville Enquirer.)

Communication tax payers ap-
pear to be unusually slow this
year and although the total
amount of the tax is but S12, 600,
and the time for payment ex-
pires July l, hardly more than
$500 has thus far been paid. I'm
like the regular taxes, there is
no penalty attached for non-pay-
ment of the tax at the time of
the expiration of the period eX-
cept that every person liable who
has not paid this tax by July l,
must assist in building roads in
York county for a period of five
days.
Claude Hunter, an employe of
of the Carhartt mill of Rock Hill,
had the misfortune to lose his
right arm Wednesday when the
member was cut off in some ma
chinery. 1t seems that Hunter
was oiling a ventilator fan on
the top of the dyehouse in the
mill when his oil can in some
manner was caught, bringing
his arm in contact with the rap
idly whirling blades. After the
accident he was taken to Il e
Fennel infirmary where he was
given surgical attention.
Judge John S. Wilson is to pre-
side at the court of general ses-
sions for York county, which is
to convene the second week in
July. 1t is expected that both
the criminal and civil business
of the court will be very light.
There are hardly more than half
dozen prisoners in Jail awaiting
trial and these are charge with
minor offenses. fhe most i'm
portant case which will likely
come before the court is that
against j. S. Stevenson, who is
charged with shooting John Haf-
ner in Bullock's Creek township
several weeks ago.
Tuesday, July 13, has been set
as the date for the formal dedi-
cation of the new York county
courthouse and exercises ap-
propriate for the occasion will
be held on that day. A petition
is now being circulated among
the members of the York County
Bar association asking Presiding
Judge Wilson to instruct the
clerk of court to notify first
week jurors not to appear on
Monday, but on Tuesday in
stead. AS has already been
mentioned in The Enquirer, the
principal address of the occasion
will be delivered by Chief JUS
tice Eugene B. Garys of the
State supreme court.
Robert Marion Wallace, famil-
iarly known to hundreds of York
county citizens as Uncle Bob"
died at his home in the New
Zion section, about 4:30 o'clock
Friday morning Of heart trouble.
He had beer in poor health for
several weeks. but during the
past few days had shown signs
of Improvement, ard his death
was entirely unexpected, coming
as distinct shock to his family
and to his scores of friends.

There seems 10 be a sentiment
prevailing among the editors of sew
eral Of our republican exchanges
that in order for a democratic news
paper to support Hon. Cornelius
Roach the paper must have been
one of those who GOT a few hundred
dollars pohucat sop in the form of
constitutional amendments and that
the editors who were favored by
Con" are returning The compliment
This is not true. We can mention
numbers Of democratic papers that
did not receive any Of the election
printing-among which is the East
Prairie Eagle-that are supporting
Mr.. Roach because they believe
that he is the proper man for the
gubegnatorial honors. Ia spite of
all criticism and trifiDg accusations.
Mr.. Roach has proven himself wholly
efficient as secretary and there are
many, not in the sop class, who
a." supporting him, believing that
lie will make an acceptable govern
or. Since when is it necessary 10
attach some sinister motive to an
editor when he prefers to give his
support to anyone? If all the men
who run for office depended upon
their ability and willingness to give
pie auI >" +ut services render
Ell there would not be many who
would receive the support of the
average country weekly. Cannot
even an editor have honest convic-
tons without being accused of being
bought? Seems to us that those pd-
pers whose connection with the re-
publican slush fund is well known
should not question the conscien-
tious loyalty of the democrats.-East

Rye And pefCh Save Soils

In southern Missouri, a winter
vetch or crimson clover may often
be mixed with the rye, sown to stop
soil washing, and when these are
sown in late August or early Sep
TENDER they may be used alone.
Such crops when inoculated, have
the usual nitrogen-fixine benefit Of
leeumes, but their roots are not as
efficient in soil-bindine as those OF
rye and they must be sown early
for best results. In this section.
