TEXARKANA ARKANSAS SATURDAY EVENING DECEMBER 15 1894.
STATEHOOD FOR THE INDIANS.
An Interview with Chairman Wheel-
er of the Committee on
Territories.
Washington Dec. 14.—Discussing
the probabilities of legislation for a
change in the government of the
five civilized tribes of Indians Rep-
resentative Wheeler chairman of
the House committee on territories
said: “On December 15 1893 in
discussing the bill for the admission
of New Mexico I read from the
treaties of 1835 and 1856 the clauses
which guarantee that no propor-
tion of the Indian Territory should
ever be embraced or included with-
in or annexed to any territory or
state nor shall either or any part
of either ever be erected into a ter-
ritory without the full and free
consent of the legislative authority
of the tribe owning the territory.
“The sixth article of the treaty
of 1835 provided that the Indians
should be protected against inter-
ruption or intrusion from citizens of
the United States who may attempt
to settle in the country.
“In reply to the proposition then
made to violate these treaties I
called attention to the law which
was enacted on the 3rd of March
1893 which provided for a commis-
sion to negotiate with the five In-
dian tribes for the purpose of ex-
tinguishment of the national or
tribal title to their lands with a
view to the ultimate creation of a
state of the Union from the terri-
tory occupied by the said tribe of
Indians.
“I stated that this commission
had been appointed and was pro-
ceeding to negotiate with these In-
dian tribes and I expressed the
opinion that we ought not to take
any action by Congress until the
commission had exhausted every
effort to negotiate with these In-
dians in the spirit of the law by
which the commission was created.
The commission has been negotiat-
ing now for a full year and I regret
to say that they have not succeed-
ed in amicably agreeing on some
plan by which the lands should be
allotted in severalty and a territory
established with a government simi-
lar to those enjoyed by the people
of other territories. I still hope
tills desirable purpose maybe con-
summated for it is very clear from
the evidence we now have of the
condition of that country that un-
less some amicable agreement is
reached Congress will be compelled
to proceed to act according to its
best judgment with regard to the
five civilized tribes.
“The treaties have virtually all
been abrogated by force of circum-
stances and by the actions of the
Indians themselves. They are
bounded on all sides by states and
territories and they have them-
selves by enactment of their coun-
sels invited white men Into their
territories until they now number
four or five white men to one In
dian."
WORKING ON A SALARY.

offices on the last day of October

| The salaries are as follows: Col-

circuit and county clerks SIBOO
each; assessor $70(1; treasurer SBOO.
Out of these salaries the officials
are required to pay their deputies
and all the expenses of their office.
The sheriff and coroner receive fees
as heretofore.
Under the new order of things
the officers are compelled to collect
the full fee for every service render-
ed and to keep a strict account of
all fees thus earned and turn the
money into the county treasury. It
will therefore be impossible for
them to extend those little courte-
sies and favors to their friends
which have heretofore been custo-
mary with all officials. It is esti-
mated that the new system will put
several thousand dollars in the
county treasury. — [Batesville
Guard.
Wherever tried the salary system
has been found preferable to the
old fee system. It is more equiti-
ble to all concerned; officials know
at the beginning of their term what
they are to receive and the poor
and unknown man stands the same
show as a rich and influential one-
all share alike. Take for instance
the present fee system: The poor
man with no influence or friends
pays the full limit whenever he has
business with the court of its offic-
ers while his more wealthy neigh-
bor gets his costs shaved on account
of his influence. Under a salary
system the officers would be com-
pelled to collect every fee or pay it
out of their own pocket. With this
system in vouge in Conway county
we believe taxation could be reduc-
ed and better service rendered by
its county officials.—[Morrilton Pi-

A RIVAL OIL COMPANY.
A Big Venture in Ohio to Compete
With the Standard Oil
Trust.
Toledo 0. Dec. 13. -A big deal
was consumated here today involv-
ing $601)0000 to $8000000 which
will make Toledo the most impor-
tant. oil center in the Ohio field and
at. the same time give the Standard
Oil Co. a new and formidable com-
petitor
It is a combination of three inde-
dent companies with chances in fa
or of two more going into it.
The Sun Oil Company of Toledo
has the largest production of crude
petroleum in Ohioexcept the Stan-
dard. Its chief owners are Pew and
Emerson of Pittsburg. The next
member of the combine in impor-
tance is the Merriam & Morgan
Parafine Company of Cleveland
and third is the Crystal oil Compa-
ny of Toledo. The Iwo ot hers which
will probably enter are the Paragon
Relining Company and the Craig
Oil Co. both of Toledo. The first
named have absorbed the Crystal
Oil Co. which owns a good refinery
here and the name of the new con-
cern is the Diamond Oil Co. J. B. A
E B. Merriam Jatnes VV. Stewart
.1 (1. White ami A M. Beckwith
are the Incorporators. The Mer-
riam and Morgan Company are not
not refiners but have been big man-
ufacturer# of by product# from
pitch.
The Sun and the Crystal both
own big productions in Ohio as do
the Craig and Paragon the new
concern will manufacture all pro-
ducts from Ihe crude to candles;
they will erect new buildings for
this work ami enter the field as the
strongest competitor the Standard
has. AW. Machen of the postof-
llce department at Washington and
George F. Lorenz are owners of
the Crystal Company which is ab-
sorbed Georg# 11. Van Vleck the
rich producer and refiner of Buffalo
Is the chief owner of the Paragon
which now operates a big refinery
here.
An oil pipe line will be laid to To-
ledo from Merrill near Cygnet (>.
an once. The new concern will re-
line by the Berg process which. It
Is claimed elhulimtes the sulphur
from the Ohio oil and thus make# It
superior to the Pennsylvania pro-
duct. Deeds have been recorded
here today and the deal is closed.

NO EXTREME TARIFF VIEWS.
Important Fact Developed at a Re-
publican Meeting at
Washington.
Washington Dec. 13. —The fact
developed at the meeting today of
the Republican Congressional com-
mittee that the western men par-
ticularly those from the Transmis-
sissippi country are not enthusias-
tically in favor of extreme tariff
rates. The discussion on this point
was proved by a declaration by Del-
egate Flynn of Oklahoma who re-
marked that “the West is not stuck
on the McKinley bill although the
Republicans of this country are
sturdy supporters ot the principles
of a protective tariff. ”
The discussion from the point be-
came general and was mainly par-
ticipated in by the western Repre-
sentatives.
Mr. Bartholdt of Missouri said
that the Republicans of his state
admired Governor McKinley but if
he should not be the standard bear-
er in the next campaign it was
because in the minds of the people
he was looked upon as an apostle of
too extreme views on the tariff.
Mr. Boutelle of Maine insisted
that the Republicans of the West
shared the sentiments of their east-
ern brothers so far as a high pro-
tective tariff is concerned and that
the fact was patent to everybody
that it was upon that issue that
the Republicans had won the recent
election.
Senator Carey of Wyoming ad-
vised moderation on the part of the
Republicans on all matters of legis-
lation owing to the unsettled con-
dition of the public mind in that
section of the country regarding ev-
eiything in which New York and
New England are also interested.
Mr. Wilson of Washington said
there were other things to engage
the attention of the party in the
West besides the tariff and men-
tioned finance as one.
A resolution was adopted contin-
uing the headquarters at Washing-
ton until the 15th of March ap-
proving the committee's wook dur-
ing the campaign just ended and
recommending a continuation of
the “educational campaign.”

Debs Sentenced to Jail for Six Months
for Contempt of Court.
CnibAGO Dec. 14. Judge Woods
this morning found that E. V. Debs
and his brother officers of the Amer-
ican Railway Union were guilty of
contempt of court in ordering the
strike of last summer and Inprenist-
iug in it. The sentence however
will not be cumulative and fines will
be imposed simply for one offence.
Debs was sentenced to six months
imprisonment and the rest of the
defendants to three months in jail
with the exception of McVean who
has not been sentenced yet.
This is the case in which Judge
Woods and Grosscup Issued an in-
junction restraing Debs and his as-
sociates from interfering wit h trains
on the various roads centering in
Chicago.
The preliminary question was
whether upon filing their answers
the defendants were not entitled to
be discharged without inquiry Into
the facts. The authorities agreed
and the court held that In proceed-
ing# for contempt In equity a sworn
answer however full and equivocal
it may be is not conclusive.
Tom Moßuo For Free Coinage.
In a letter to the Little Rock
Press lion. Tho#. 0. Mcßae denies
having refused to give his views up
on the free coinage of silver and
says: “I am In favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver and
have a bill (H. B. 128 a copy of
which I send you) pending to secure
It. There has never been a time
since 1 reached manhood that I was
unwilling to declare my opinion up
on this Important question. On
every stump In the last campaign
as well as In published speclies I
have so expressed myself and I am
surprised that any such statement
should ho credited to me”

AGAINST DEMORALIZED MONEY.
Rufus J. Lackland of St. Louis Oppos-
es the Carlisle Plan.
Rufus J. Lacklaud President of
the Boatman’s Bank and Charles
Parsons of the State Bank of St.
Louis were the St. Louis represen-
tatives invited to appear before the
Banking and Currency Committee
of Congress Monday to discuss the
Carlisle banking scheme. Neither
however will probably be able to
go.
"I am opposed to the Carlisle
plan” said Mr. Lackland. “I am
opposed to the banks issuing money
just as I would be to any other cor-
poration of any character large or
small issuing money. Banks or
corporations to carry on a business
of deposit and discount and should
not be authorized to issue a dollar.
“Demoralized currency is more
of a curse than all the whisky and
tobacco in the world. It destroys
that greatest of blessings implicit
confidence in the country. The
Carlisle plan would start a number
of concerns that would be called
banks but they would really be but
shavlig shops. They would flood
the country with only a partially
protected currency. They would
subject the holders of such curren
cy to the danger of numerous coun-
terfeits.
“In all its worst formssuch a cur-
rency would hurt worst the poor
man. The rich can take care of
themselves. The poor man who re-
ceives his pay Saturdays would not
know whether (he currency he re-
ceived in |.ay or in change was gen-
uine or counterfeit. It would de-
moralize finance.”
“I am in favor of raising the gold
reserve to at least 1250000000 by
making all important duties paya-
ble in gold. That would bring in
gold in plenty. It would put an end
to bond issues ami would begin at
once to redeem what were out and
Anally save the count! y $80000000
a year in interest.
“I am in favor of the government
issuing any amount of paper based
on gold that can be taken care of
safely and stop all bank issues
That would give a gold stand-
ard.
"I am in favor of silver certifi-
cates to the amount of silver we
have and we have plenty. Making
our duties payable in gold would
supply us with gold and our silver
would take care of Itself.
“I have been actively engaged in
business since 1838 and haye seen
the time when you had to exchange
money when going from St alm to
Stale. Ido not want to see those
times again. I think any bank has
enough to do to take care of its de
posltor# without creating a larger
debt to be looked after in its notes
which arc merely promises to pay.
"Yes 1 was invited to Washing-
tonto appear be fore the committee.
lam too old a man for the trip. I
rote Mr. Cobb my ideas to be read
before the connnltee.”
