intention to carry it out, asserting
that the platform should mean some
thing.
Mr. Boatner asked if Mr. Bland
had not been a supporter of
President Cleveland in the last
campaign, whereupon Mr. Bland res
ponded that he had supported the
platform and had voted for the can
didate and that the party had gone
down in ignominous defeat for its
treachery and fraud.
Mr. Lacey of Iowa, followed in op
position to the bill.
Bourke Cockran followed with an
eloquent appeal for the bill.
Sooth Carolina Republican' Worried.
Columbia, S. C., Jan. 7.—The Re
publicans in this state are greatly
concerned over the approaching con
stitutional convention. They believe
that the elective franchise will be so
restricted and manipulated that a
large portion of the colored voters

urging that delegates be elected to a
state convention to be held on Feb
ruary 0, to take sucli action as the
exigency demands.

CANNOT SUB INDIAN NATIONS.
Ill* Trlbea Occupy tbs bums Plan* as
Independent Nations.
St. Louis, Ha, Jan. 4.—In the
United States circuit court of ap
peals, Judges Caldwell and Thayer
on the bench, an interesting decision
was rendered yesterday as to the lia
bility of an Indian tribe to be sued as
a nation. It was the case of Ueorgo
S. Thebes, who sued the Choctaw
tribe for 8110,340 for professional
services rendered the nation
in lobbying in Washington. Tho
defendants demurred to the complaint
on the ground that the federal court
in the Indian territory had no juris
diction of the person of the defendants
and of the subject matter of tho
action. The court sustained tho de
murrer and this court affirms the
judgment The decision, which is by
Judge Caldwell, discusses the status
of the several nations, and say- that
it soems to have been the policy of
congress to regard them as self-gov
erning communities. They are not
sovereign states, but so far as suits
brought against them, the policy is to
place them on the plane of independ
ent states. A state without its con
sent cannot be sued by an individual.
Congress might have allowed the na
tions to be sued, but it has never
done so.

lieve that the distress in their own

WAITE S LAST WORDS.
SILVER THE BATTLE CRY IN
COLORADO.
The Outlining Executive'! Meinfn i Moet
Unique Document—President Cleveland
and tlto Democratic and Republican
Parties Roasted to a Finish—Will Meet
Them Two Tears Hence at Phllllppl
Are His Parting Words to the Legisla
tors.
Oor. Waite's Message.
Denver, Col., Jan. 8. — Uovernor
Waite read his last message to the
legislature to-day. It was the long
est document ever presented to the
general assembly of this state.
The governor called attention first
to the fact that, in spite of the de
struction of the state's silver inter
ests,the credit of Colorado was higher
in New York to-day than ever before
and more miles of railroad were built
last year than in any other, lie re
ferred to increased production of gold
and said: “But even if gold should
be found in Colorado as abundantly
as in California and Australia, it
might relievo but would not atone for
the tyranny and oppression which
under both Republican and Demo
cratic presidents have deprived the
people of the free coinage of silver—a
right which was theirs before the
constitution of the United States was
adopted and which was never coded
to congress.”
The governor recommends that tho
tenth general assembly appoint a
commission to Investigate the excess
warrant frauds committed under
previous administrations and amount
ing to nearly $1,000,000, with a view
to bringing suits against tho guilty
parties and their bondsmen. He sug
gests that tho most hardened crimi
nals be compelled to run as candidates
for some state office.
a in* recommenuuuon nr mi muue to
the extra session of the ninth irenor
al assembly that the legislature
should make gold and silver dollars,
foreign and domestic, containing not
less than 412grains of silver, U-10
fine, legal tender in payment of all
debts collectable in Colorado, was re
newed. He declared the time had
come for aggressive action on th e
part of the friends of silver, and said:
“It is a matter of congratulation
that at the las* election tho issues
were so clearly defined and so immi
nent that the devil claimed his own
and the traitors who had been so long’
masquerading as silver Democrats and
Populists were compelled to throw off
their disguise and openly cling to the
bosom of the Republican party, a
party responsible before God and man
for the destruction of our silver pro
duct, the depreciation within the last
sixteen months of all real and per
sonal property in the state (except
money and money securities) to less
than one-half their former value, and
the loss of employment to thousands
upon thousands of silver miners.”
Tho governor declared that during
the last year the president had sent
troops into Colorado and Illinois in
violation of the constitution, and
recommended the assembly “to
memorialize congress to solemnly
protest against the usurpations of tho
United States courts and United
States marshals, who, with tho aid
and consent of the United Slates
judges, have converted the United
States court houses into recruiting
stations to enlist despersdoes as
deputy marshals without any regard
to their proper qualifications, but
simply for military purposes.”
In conclusion the governor said:
“A brief two years ago a Democratic
national administration assumed pow
er in all the departments of the gov
ernment. To-day that administration
lies crushed and bleeding. Its suc
cess contained all the elements of its
swift destruction, for the money
power which controlled the party
prevented any relief to the people;
and so the Republican party, con •
trolled by tho same relentless power,
can grant no relief—no substantial
prosperity—and wohld not if it could.
Hence, it too must give way to the
party of progress and reform.
“The People’s party of Colorado,
though never in control of tho gen
eral assembly and with its state of
ficers somewhat divided and discord
ant, during tho most exciting and
troublous times that have existed m
the history of the state, turn over to
the incoming administration the af
fairs of the state with a clean bill of
health, and we shall hold our domi
nant party to a like rigid account.
“I will not say ‘Hail and farewell.’
That would be too formal. We go,
but we return.. We will meet you,
gentlemen, in two years at Philippi.”
The Dawes Commission Attacked.
Washington. Jan. 5.—Every mem
ber of congress received in his mail
to-day a circular letter signed by the
representatives maintained by the
five civilized tribes, in which the la
bors and recommendations of the
Dawes commission are subjected to
severely unfavorable comment. The
charge that the tribal governments
are ineffective and corrupt is denied
and congressmen are asked to use
their influence to the end that the
tribes may be heard exhaustively.
Sullivan's Company Disbands.
Paris, 111., Jan. 5.—John L. Sulli
van’s combinntion, known as “A True
American,” practically dispandeJ here
yesterday. Sullivan made an attempt
to ^ive an entertainment at the opera
house but could not stand on the
stage without support, lie was so
abusive that seven members of the
combination resigned their positions
and the remainder departed for Mon
mouth.
A GREAT ASYLUM BURNED.
All lint One \Tlng of the Southern Ill

Ansa, 111., Jan. a.—Fire broke out

The loss aggregates $!00,0U0.
SCOTT’S TAKING OFF.
Matt Daughertr Think* Scott Wm Pal
Oat of the Wajr to Protect Somebody.
Omaha, Neb., Jan. 0.—Matt Daugh
erty of Ognlnlla wns in this city last
night Ho talked freely upon tho liar
rett Scott affair, saying:
"1 feel confident tlmt Scott has been
murdered, and thut he was buried in
one of the many deep gulches up in
that country. 1 do not believo thnt he
was taken to the Niobrara river, be
cause it was too far from the place
where ha was dragged from his car
riage. llluckblrd creek and other
streams ure nearer, and besides tho
many gulches in that vicinity afford
better places for the concealment of
tho crime. 1 believe that wheu tho
great outrage has been sifted to the
bottom and the perpetrators appre
hended that it will be found that every
■nun in that mob was a political enemy
of Scott's.
“It will be romembered that when
Judge Chapman was called to that
locality some time ago to pass on the
validity of the first bond of Scott, that
the bondsmen of Scott offered to pay
the 9.1(1,000 which was claimed as the
amount of the embezzlement, or short
age, but the offer was refused. I be
lieve that some of tho men in that mob
were former friends of Scott, who sub
sequently became his foes, purely to
protect themselves from exposure, and
that some of those men were tho iden
tical fellows who got some of the
money for which Scott is charged short
age. ”
O’Nkh.i., Neb., Jan. (1.—Mullihnn,
who is now under arrest, has by far tho
most striking appearance of any of tho
prisoners, and is evidently a man of
more than ordinary nervo. Soon after
bis arrest ho was taken to tho Scott res
idence to see whether he could be iden
tified. Here occurred a scene moro in
tensely dramatic than the most realis
tic production of tho modern stage.
Mullihan was taken into the kitchen,
where he was made up ns he was sup
posed to have appeured at the time of
tho attack, llis heavy bearskin coat
was turned up around his neck. A red
handkerchief was bound around tho
lower part of his face, leaving only his
eyes and tho lower part of his forehead
exposed. Tlion ho was taken into the
parlor and brought face to face with
tho wife of tho man of whoso murder
ho stood accused, llis deep-sot black
eyes under bushy, overhanging brows,
together with the suggestive mask’, im
parted a most savage appearance, and
the reminder of tho terrible scene of
Monday wns moro than Mrs. Scott
could stand. Sho looked at him a
moment, then gave scream Hftcr scream
of terror, and frantically appealed to
the officers to takehim away. She grew
hysterical and Bank fainting on tho
sofa, while Mullihun gave no sign of
emotion.
WILL FluhT IT TO A FINISH
Union Pacific Receivers Do Not Propose
to Lose Their Grip.
Omaha, Neb., Jan. 5.—The hearing1
on the petition of the minority stock
holders of the Oregon Railway and
Navigation company, asking to have
stricken out of the order appointing
Mr. McNeill receiver, the direction to
pay the expenditures of the former re
ceivers, principally incurred in restor
ing washouts along the Columbia river,
has been postponed until January 25,
at Portland, Ore., before Judge Hilbert.
The application of the trustee of the
consolidated mortgage of the Oregon
Short Line & Utah Northern for the
appointment of an independent re
ceiver, which was set for hearing be
fore Judge Hilbert January 15, will
likely be postponed until a dato be
tween the 23d and 29th, arrangements
to that effect now being in progress.
This postponement, it is said, indi
cates that the receivers of the Union
Pacific, as outlined several days ago,
mean to contest the application of a
separate receiver, K. IOllery Anderson
of the receivers being particularly in
terested in resisting the application. It
is now generally understood that At
torney General Richard Olney will take
a hand in fighting the divorcement of
the Oregon Short Line & Utah North
ern. Already an outline has been made
of the arrangements to be advanced
by the Union Pacific interests in opposi
tion to the application, and this outline
will be presented to the receivers next
week in New York.
Kverything now points to a legal
battle of great importance to the inter
ests involved, and the outcome of the
application of the American Loan and
Trust company will be watched with
the liveliest concern, particularly on
the part of those who will be affected
directly should the segregation be
judicially determined upon.
