Hadn't somebody better cut
short hi? business in Washington
and hurry homo to provont tlio
nominntion of somebody for princi-
pal chief? Ho might bo left.
Some ono dcop in tho political
mysteries of tho country says thoro
will bo thrco candidates for princi-
pal cliiol nt tho next election that
cortain influences aro at work that
will necessitate tho creation of n
third party.
A nitr. recently passed both
houses of congress directing tho
erection of i government building
nt Springfield. Tho president as-
certained that tho outlay for rents
at tho point named is only $300
per annum and so vetoed tho bill.
Just at present Mr. Cleveland
could not carry Springfiold for a
re-cloction by a largo majority.
Mr. Joshua Ross secretary in-
forms us that tho eleventh Inter-
national fair at Muskogeo will be-
gin Scptombcr 28 and continue
until Friday October 1 1880. Ho
invites tho pcoplo of Coowccscoo-
wco and tho cntiro nation and of
all other nations to como assuring
them tlr.t no pains within thoir
power will bo spared to Tender tho
occasion pleasant and interesting.
DKsriTE tho precaution taken by
tho senate last council it seems
that Col. William A. Phillips has
outdono thorn. His lottcr denying
that tho Crooks had applied to him
to proparo a brief conveying a
proposition to sell thoir westorn
lands says tho Crooks know that
ho "was engaged for tho Chorokco
nation in resisting all theso
measures" tho opening up of
Oklahoma to whito settlement.
This htalemcnt clearly shows that
tho Creek delegation 6uroly had
too much senso to apply to him
for such a purposo but it don't
go to prove that ho did not prompt
that dispatch in tho Globo-
Dcmocrat. MEETINO OF THE OLAH8.
Tho two political parties tho
National and Downing will moot
in convention next Monday to
nominato candidates for principal
and assistant chioves. Bunch
seems at prcscnt.to bo tho coming
man on part of tho Nationals. Tho
second's placo lies between several
as many persons aro spoken of.
Some say ho will bo a southorn
man thereby recognizing a distinc
tion on account of tho sides taken
in tho war but otherB ignoro such
distinction and movo for Bome ono
most suitablo for tho placo and
who haB been and Is yet a member
of that party.
Tho Downings seem not bo do-
cided in thoir selection for chief.
Judgo Mayes scorns from nil indica-
tions to bo tho man but 'there's
mony a slip 'twlxt tho cup and
tho lip" that may surpriso his
numerous friends. Though a long
ways off "our special agent and
attorney" may bo manipulating
tho wires to sccuro future power
regardless of any particular party
being victorious.
Watch as well as proy.
SOMEBODY HAS TOLD A
"WHOPPER."
It is rather refreshing "in this
weak piping timo of pcaco" and
tho fruitless endeavor to keep cool
to- notico with what alacrity our
friend William A. Phillips quick-
steps to reliovo himscdf of tho
chargo of having misrepresented
tho Creek delegation as- to their
want of carnostness in opposing tho
opening up of Oklahoma to whito
sottlotncnt But moro refreshing
still is tho cool stylo of his denial
of having authorized such a thing
by saying that ho was a "littlo sur-
prised" just alittlo "at tho state-
ments mado." Ho says that "tho
statement that tho Crocks had ap-
plied to hitn to prcparo a brief
embodying a proposition for tho
salo of Oklahoma is untrue."
Somebody has Hod; ho or tho
Globo-Dcmocrat man. But it is
buyond surmlso what object tho
Globo-Dcmocrat man had in pub-
lishing anything so imfamously
fulso; whilo it is easy of conjecluro
why Phillips would perpotrato such
a tiling himsolf. His rofusal to ac-
commodato tho Crooks in a mcasuro
so unpopular among tho Chcrokccs
would when made known to them
jo to ro-cUabllsh thoir wavering
confidenco in hitn. That tho dis-
patch as published in tho Globe-
Democrat has been industriously
circulated among tho full Chorokccs
is perhaps a fact that cannot bo
refuted Ho and tho Globo-Dcmocrat
man for It.
Slnco tho appearance of tho dis-
putch and tho various remarks con-
cerning "it tho reading public
"lii-roboutB" ore anxiously await-
ing developments would liko to
wo what thoGlobo-Dcinocrat has to
y about it whothur or not it will
tn-at th iwatUw with "silent con-
tempt" or wMher it will put on
war paint tad go to hair-lifting.
MR. PASOHAt. CONTRADICTS
Mil ADAIR.
Dogberrr "WrIU rne down an Ml."
Shakeaneare.
Vimta I T. Augnal 1 1o.
Editor ok Indian Ciiikftain:
As long as Mr. Adair whilo doing
for himself what Dogberry demand-
ed of another confined his attacks
to Mr. Beck I had no desiro to
intorfcro in titeir affairs. But
when Adair makes false statements
and substitutes his nnsinino asser-
tions for truth whilo raising ques
lions of voracity with myself and
others ho invites notico and in-
quiry ns to his intelligence and
veracity. Without mentioning my
namo he puts in print a statement
meaning that Uoi. Boudinot and
myself claimod authorship for tho
samo platform that Adair untruth-
fully assails. "I and othors had
Btatod to him that I was tho writer
of tho Dclawaro platform." I copy
Boudinol's answer to enquiry if
Adair had any reason to mako his
statement. Mr. Boudinot writes:
Fort Smith Ann. Julr SI IBM.
Dear Paschal: I never told
Mr. Adair or any ono clso that I
wroto tho resolutions roferrcd to in
tho lottor of Mr. Adair herewith
enclosod or that I over had
anything to do with thorn. I
novor know anything about them
until I saw them in print.
Yours truly
E. 0. Boudinot.
Ab tho resolutions speak for
themselves and it mado no differ-
ence whether Boudinot or I wroto
them or saint or sinner it was un-
necessary for Adair to mako his
also assertions about authorship.
I Bay the meeting nt Landrum
springs presided over by J. T.
Cunningham did adopt thoir plat-
form after J. W. Adair hadargrucd
against right of meeting to pass
resolutions lie dm not tlicro anu
then donounco theso resolutions
but unless my memory is greatly at
fault after debate closed drawled
out "No patriot could rcfuso to
endorso them." This platform was
again adopted at Johnson springs
by tho Downing men who refused
to bo bossed by this would-be
"onion leader" and that was tho
winning ticket. As tho Downing
senators elected L. B. Boll presi-
dent and tho. Downing caucus
nominated Tom Bufiington for
oflico nt Tahlcquah Adair's bosh
about breaking up Downing party
when tho mooting refused to adopt
his views is nonsenso. Tho strug-
gle was not as Adair states it but it
was n demand that timo bo given
nnd notico for tho district to get a
fuller representation. This meet
ing adjourned to Johnson spring
and nominated and elected eight of
its candidates and Adair's Union
party elected two and Nationals
three. Which crowd atTahlcquah
stuck closest to tho Downing party
on test votes is a matter of record
and Mr. Adair cannot rulo out
thoso who tho Downing party
trusted after full inquiry. By tho
way is Mr. Adair's Union party
going to Btick to tho Downing
ticket or is it going whero tho
leadora who "borncd it" have got
into tho ranks of tho Nationals?
Tho Union party had no standing
at Tahlcquah last winter. Ross and
Bcngo had cono back to their first
lovo. This platform was tho first
emphatio public declaration that
tho Cherokees would sell no land
as proposed by congress or under
any circumstances for whito settle-
ment as it regarded any such sale
as tho beginning of speedy national
disaster. It denied that tlicro was
any legal claim against ono aero of
Unerokeo lands except that already
occupied by other Indians in ac-
cordance with treaty. And stated
that tho United States had aban-
doned ovory claim it over had oven
under treaty of I860 and that at
most tho Cherokco pcoplo gavo
a bond for titlo when tho United
States complied with treaty. It
recited tho fact that the delegates
and Phillips ncvor had any author-
ity to pledge tho Cherokco lands.
And.that tho claim of the secretary
of tho interior and commissioner of
Indian affairs that wo had received
an advanco payment was not
founded in law. And if tho United
States government had so permit-
ted tho drawing out of money it
could not claim payment in lands
becauso it hod legal notico of just
what tho delegates had teen
authorized to do. And it further
stated under no circumstances
would ono aero bo sold nnd do-
manded and obtained theplcdgo of
its candidates to that effect. But
it dumanded investigation and ob-
tained it at meeting of tho senato.
It gavo tho delegates tho benefit of
tho doubt whether they had been
bamboozled or had helped to do-
celvo tho council. But it repudia-
ted any adverse action of theirs
against tho interest of tho Chero-
kco nation. Further it pointed out
that thcro wero 05000000 acres
ot unearned railroad land grants
Bcattorod over tho union bo thoro
was no reason for tho Unllod States
government pushing us for a sale.
With thoso resolutions read and
discussed in his hearing how can
Wash Adair expect anybody to
boliovo hie untruthful statement
when ho asserts tho advocates of
tins platform proposed to do exactly
tho contrary from what it and
thoy stated. This platform did not
concedo wo owed tho Unitod States
government anything. But do-
manded an inquiry and gave notico
that tho Chorokocs had set-offs
that must bo counted in striking a
ba'anco with tho United Slates.
And thoy stated if any balance was
found ngaiust us it was to bo ro-
naid in monoy and not land
riioreforo when any man who
ought to comprohond English as-
sorts its advocates favored soiling
ail tho western lands and paying
tha United Statos 8331600 and
dividing tho remainder among tho
pcoplo ho is not trying to follow
tho example of Gcorgo Washing-
ton by anying ho could not toll a
lio but at ono lean ho placo a him-
self abreast of Eli Porkins and
Mulliattnn and tho boss romancor
of this continent. This platform
caiiou tor mo loricnuro oi wo
railroad land grants and declared
it preferred to hold tho lands in
common and that every aero is to
bo held for Chorokoco citizens at
all hazards. Thoreforo Wash
Adair to show his dissimilarity to
Gcorgo Washington assorts that It
is a railroad soctfonbting movement
and half tho land is to bo sold at
once. And immediately afterwards
says that tho lcaio monoy U to bo
appropriated to pay tho United
Stales and tho United States bo
left unpaid and somebody pocket
tho Icaso monoy. Can't ho seo
that ho contradicts him self? Last
summer n platform of "tho Union
party" was published as being
adopted at Landrum springs when
Adair was nominated and it ap
peared over his namo as president
if no resolutions woro adoptod
thoro. then for a year and moro ho
lias loft your readers and yonsclf
with his published endorsement oi
a fraud misstatement or whopper
as pcoplo may bo disposed to call
It What is dono over a man's
signaturo and ho docs not repudi-
ate at once publicly is taken as car-
rying all weight of his namo.
Tho man who denounces othors
and assigns ovil motives to them
might not to destroy his own char-
actor for accuracy or voracity.
This platform was not publicly re-
pudiated by Adair or his ticket in
your columns although it was
twico publishod. When nro wo to
boliovo 6tatcmont8 published over
Wash Adair's namo? Whonovcr
he chooses to chango them? This
platform "denounced" Phillips.
What was Phillips denounced for
and why is Adair opposed to Phil-
lips unless ho and his "accompli-
ces" beliovc Phillips guilty of somo
skullduggory? Evon Phillips was
entitled to an investigation. When-
ever Adair gots intelligence enough
to file proper charges against
Schrimshcr and Bell or realizes
that ho needs other help to so do
It will bo nmple timo for tho dele-
gates to answer. I eeok no contro-
versy with any man. Yet nt tho
samo timo I meet issues of all
kinds that men raiso with mo; and
when a young man rnns a-muck
and assails tho motives of all who
ho chooses to denounco bccaQso ho
is opposed to them and docs not
stato what remedies ho proposes
in placo of thoso ho assails ho
must expect that eomo ono will flat-
ly contradict him.
Adair's mooting organized with
somo ten men aftor tho meeting
presided over by Cunningham ad-
journed. I lcavo it to Adair Modo
and thoir associates to settle among
thomsolves whethor a fraudulent
platform was published. If Adair's
associates dony his statement that
no resolutions woro adopted and
point to his inaccuracies and un-
fortunate habit of Baying things
that an intelligent man "in tho in-
timacy of his own conscience"
would know wero untrue an intel-
ligent publin will givo them tho
verdict. Respectfully
Ridge Paschal.
