A Manifesto After Visit of

SITUATION DISCUSSED.
Huron and Viscount Aokl Go In Spe

Gift to President. Jupanese Ofil
cluU Highly Pleased With Result ,
of Interview With Notion's Chief.
New York, July 17. Following a
visit from Admiral Baron Yamamoto
and Viscount Aokl, the Japanese Am.
bassador, to Oystor Bay, where they
had luncheon with him, the Presi
dent issued a statement in which he
spoke of the relations between this
country and Japan as satisfactory.
"The President," to quote tho
words of the manifesto, "had a long
Interview with Admiral Baron Yamo.
oto and it was most satisfactory In
every way. It simply confirmed
what had already been made clear by
Ambasador Aolcl the thoroughly
good understanding between the two
governments and the fundamental
friendliness between tho two na
tions," Captain Kondo, chief aide to the
Admiral, presented to the President
a small Japanese cabinet of lacquer
work, which he had carried to Oy--ster
Bay. The box is of exquisite
workmanship, and is inlaid with
Jade. The token was presented as
the personal gift of the Admiral.
Trip In Special Cur.
Admiral Yamamoto left the Hol
land House, where he is staying, and
was driven to the Long Island ferry.
Captain Kondo carried the present
all the way, even declining the in
vitation of the brakoman on the car
to take charge of it until tho destirm.
tlon had been reached. When an an.
Xlous inquirer referred to tho some
what bulky package the Captain
said that it might be luncheon for all
he knew, and then smiled broadly.
Tho trio had a special car on tho
regular train to themselves. They
were attired in long coats and high
hats and there was nothing of the
official in their appearance. An au
tomobile sent by tho President was
in waiting for them at the Oyster
Bay station, although Mr. Loeb, the
President's secretary, was not there
to meet them, ns had been expected.
The distinguished guests were
shown to the automobile by the
newspaper men and soon after that
they were en route for Sagamore Hill
They were received with much cord
iality by the President. Among the
other guests at luncheon wore Rob
ert Bacon, Assistant Secretary of
State; Mrs. Bacon. Mr. and Mrs.
E. D. Morgnn and Herbert Parsons,
of New York. Mr. Parsons has been
in conference with the President for
several days as chairman of the Rep.
ubllcan County Committee with re
gard to the appointment of a post
master for this city. The luncheon
was characterized by a lack of all
formality and the Japanese visitors
chatted in an animated manner with
the Chief Executivo and his guests.
The Admiral presented the cabinet
as a token of his personal regard.
It was much admired by the Presi
dent and by the Americans of the
party.
The Admiral later said that any
feeling which Japan may have had
because of occurrences on the Paci
fic coast was directed solely against
tho people of that section, and that
there was no possible chance of there
being any misunderstanding between
the two governments on account of
it. He said that he felt that the
meeting with the President had done
much to remove any possibility of a
misunderstanding between the two
nations.

N. Y. MAKKET LETTER
(From our Special Correspondent.)
WHEAT. Weakness was a couspl.
ouous feature of the local wheat mar.
ket during the week. Offerings wero
heavy, with the demand poor as there
was little or nothing In the general
news of a stimulating nature. After,
wards the demand became more act
ive und the market closed steady.
CORN. Increased offerings, owing
to favornblo weather conditions and
better crop reports, give corn an eas.
lor undertone during the early deal
lugs, but later a firmer feeling de
veloped and tho marke t became
steady.
OATS. The market for local spot
oats was steady and prices on track
unchanged but lower for white, and
unchanged for mixed In elevator,
with only a moderately active trade.
EGGS. A sale under tho call of 60
caoos of western firsts at 17 c re
flects the firm position of the mar
ket. The ofilclal prlceB wore left un.
changed. So few lots of western will
pass ofilclal inspection that members
of tho commltteo do not feel war
ranted In quoting figures that only
represent exceptional quality.
CHEESE. Tho price committee hold
a very short session but made no
change In the official quotations. The
market Is quite firm on fancy full
cream cheese, especially small sixes
of colored.
LIVE POULTRY. The demand this
week has been of good volume and
only two cars were left unsold. There
were no changes noted In late prices.
DRESSED POULTRY. Receipts, 1,
133 packages. The demand was of
much better volume than usually ex.
lsts with the wlndup of the week's
business. Tho tone on fowlB was
strong, but prices were no higher,
the best lots seldom exceeding 14c.
Broilers have sold sreely thl3 week,
and only odd lots wre left unsold.

INDIAN LAWS AND POLITICS.
Oompuldory Educational KyMcm
Among Ohoctnws nnd C'lilcknoimn.
The Choctaws and Chickasaw bp.
long to the same family of Indlnas
and their governments In a arp;o
measure are run Jointly, nlthoiig'i
they have separate legislatures, or
councils, and sepernle chiefs. Every
member of the Chic-Chocs trills,
man, woman and child Is worth la
his own right In the neighborhood of
$ IS, 000. This doesn't consist, of
property given to him, writes a Tish
omingo correspondent of the KaiiFag
City Journal, It Is property for which
he has Just us valid a title as that
held by any while man to his farm.
It enme ,to hint by descent.
Tho only poor people In these two
nations are the white men. TIipi
are no Indian almshouses. Of
course tho Indians tnko good earn
of their sick and afflicted, but th"y
do not hnvo to provide u poor farm
to keep Indigent Indians. Their
only charges, aside from the afflicted,
who pay their way, are the indigent
whites. The Indians nro very kind
to them, they give them employment
or look after them If they are unablo
to work and are In want.
Ic was the pride of those two
tribes that they didn't have a mem
ber of school ago unable to read anil
write and figure. They would pick
out twenty-four of their bn;;htst
youniT men and women each ,;ir
and fend them to Eastern universi
ties. After finishing their educa
tion these young men and woinn
would go back to their tribes and
help uplift the reft. Thrlr ertlrw
e:pcn?es while In the hi;; colleges
of the East were borne by tho tribal
governments. There two natiens
n!o had n roniptilsory c-honl iw
that has no equal. Kvi ry able
bodied child over rdx yents of age
had to go to school. There war. no
way to evade the hnv. If a pavat
Deeded' tile child to help with tae
work the nr.tton hired a poor vh!;i
nii.n to do the work so thct the c' !M
co, ild stay in school nrd woe! ' vr
him out of the tribal treasury. Nn
State In the Union ever dov'ln;:c 1 l's
coiiipuhiory school lui". to tint Hcli
s; nte of perfection, nor ha one ever
Ft lit Its sons and daughters off to
i"J.'i sit public expev.se.
Thr Chlckasaws and Choef:;ws
u,-ed to own slaves. They were
F'Mthcrn Indiana Indlins and fur
mniiV generations lived In the slav.
belt. But they were among the llivt
to free their slaves, and aft"r dolus
that they did something that no
whit" ex-Flnve owner ever dre-iin-vl
of doing. To each slave anil Ins
wife and child these Indians gave
forty ncres of land and then put
them on their feet so that they eouM
sustain themselves. These freeil
nitti still own their land, and many
of them have been able to accumu
late enough to cducf.to their chil
dren In some of the leading negro
colleges of tho country.
Tho Chlckasaws and C ivv,
while they accord their freoilmeri
nio.'t. generous treatment, never
minglo with them in a socl.il w.iy.
They draw the color line as rM'li.'
as do the Southern whitea. Walls
into a courtroom and you will se.i
the Indians occupying seats ni on
side of tho aisle and the uegroes on
the other. Tho Indians have very
rigid laws against Intermarrying
with negroes. It is absolutely pnv
hlbited under a severe penalty of one
hundred nnd fifty lashes oa the buck.
That number of lashes is almost
equivalent to tho death penalty.
When It comes to politics the In
dians are apt. Tho campaigns ur
always hot and furious. There Is
more excitement among them over
the election of a chief than there
is among the white people over tho
election of a President of tho United
States. That Is saying coiuiderabM
when it Is taken Into consideration
that ordinarily the Indian doesn't
enthuse very easily. When Chief
Johson of the Chlckasaws was a can
didate for re-election his telephono
bill alone amounted to nearly $1,000
On the last day of the campaign rival
Indians cut the wires kading to the
chief's house, and he hnd to hire
couriers to carry Instructions oa
elijction day.
The Indians are great on tele
phones. The territory is a regulu.
network of long distance wires.
Most of the Chlckasaws and Choc
taws have phone services right In
their houses, although they may bo
twenty miles from a town. Chief
Johnson himself lives more than ten
inlles from Tishomingo, the capital
af the Chickasaw nation, yet he
koeps In constant touch with tillm!
matters by using his phone. lib)
home Is built on the cottage style
and would do credit to any of the big
cities of tjie Kust. It Is surrounded
by' big native forest trees nnd the
yard Is a regular (lower garden.
While jChlef Johnson's surrounding!'
at home are above the average of th
Chlckasaws. yet ua a rule they are
all well housed and well fod.
