Hitchcock, general maunder of Mac Arthur, Porks & Co., general con tractors on tho KiiROtic-Coos Hay railway, was In the city accompanied by C. C. Tinker, of Snn Francisco. Mr. Hitchcock says that tho company expects to run trains Into Mnrshflolil next year If the work progresses as rapidly as It Is now. llallastlng operations on tho Wil lamette Pacific will commence again this week and will probably bo con tinued until the rails reach Mnple tcni. nt tho head of tldownter, ac cording to the announcement made by railroad officials today. Oravol trains will bo operated from n gravel pit near Natron, through Springfield anil Kiigone, to the end of the pres ent ballasted line, thirty miles west ' of Eugene. It is tlio plan to mnlntaln an oper ator and dispatcher nt the end of the line, and keep him as near the front ns possible. To do this It Is probable that the Western Union Telegraph Company will re-establish their telegraph construction crow, hut with only n few men. Instead of tho large construction outfit, that was able to catch up with track-laying so iiuh'kly, about a month ago. It will not be long before Mapleton has Its first telegraphic communica tion with ICugetic. The ballasting operations Iinve been delayed until a continuous run could bo made for several weeks at a time. At present there nre ten miles of unballasted track, and while this is being ballasted the railroad company expects to extend Its rnllp across a string of six bridges toward Mapleton, and when this Is done ballasting will continue and trains will soon bo running to tldownter.

ID; Associated I'rtu la Coot Btt Times. WASHINGTON, D. C, July 30. The passing of the Hod Jinn mid his slow but stonily nbsorptlon Into the body of Amerlcnn citizenship, wns made evident by the recent order of the Indlnn Office, dlscolvlng tho Cherokee nation as n tribal entity on July 1 Inst nml placing the members of the largest of the Five Civilized Tribes on tho snmo footing ns white tesldents of Oklahoma, Tho Cberokees have figured In some of the notnblc stages of Amer ican history. Ethnologlcnlly they nre said to bo n branch of tho Iro ituls family, nlthough never allied politically with the Iroquois nation. Originally thoy occupied the Appnm ntox Dasln of Virginia, but were gradually driven south into Georgia and the Carollnas, wtih brandies in Kentucky and Tennessee. Hero they developed the wonderful confederacy which mnde treaties with tho United States, mid resisted the efforts of tho states to dispossess them, This raised one of the first Issues over tho stntes being bound by Federal trentles. When the United Stntes Supremo Court stpjtnlncd the Cher okee treaties, Andrew Jnckson, then President, mnde his famous remark: "Well, John Marshall has mnde his decision, now let him enforce It." The Cherokecs mnde rnpld pro gress In education und clvlllzntlon, abandoning tho clinse for agricul ture, and finally developing an al phabet and lungungc of their own. This wns the production of ono of heir mixed-blood members, Sciiuoyn, or George Guss, who Invented n syllabary of 78 signs forming the basis of tho Cherokee language, jlnce known as Scquoyn. About ihls time n newspaper, the Cherokee Phoenix, was stnrted nt Now Echotn. In Georgia, the enpitnl of tho na tion. The office wns n log house and the paper was printed In English tnd Cherokee. Publication was sus pended after six years by tho Geor la authorities. At tho height of the Chorokco's irosporlty, gold was discovered with n tho territory mid agitation for tho removal of tho Indians soon be tin. After n hopeless struggle last ing for yenrs, under their great iilef, John Hoss, tho Chorokees, on December 2, 18;ifi, signed n trenty by which they ngreed to sell their romnliilng territory mid movo out beyond tho .Mississippi to n country there to bo set nsldo for thorn, lu Indian Territory. Objection to the migration dovcl ipeil nmong ninny of the Cherokecs, md General Wlnfleld Scott wns fln ally sent to forcibly remove tho 17,- 000 Indians to Mtt r -,! homo In the West The,-. tu"nd terrible hardships on tin lotif, journey by foot, and it Is said nearly one-fourth of the number perl lied. Arriving In their new home, they formed a nntlotutl government, with the enpi tnl nt Tnlilcqunh. Tho tnsk of converting the Chero kecs from n tribal community into a body of individual land owners began In 1902, when they signed nu ngrccment with tho United States by which the government undertook to make complete rolls of nil tho tribesmen nnd dlvldo the Inud and money among them. The Curtis Act, passed by Congress In 189,3, provided for tho valuation nnd al lotment of the lands of tho Fivo Civilized Tribes. In 190C tho legls Intlvc nnd Judicial departments of the Cherokee nntlon pnsscd out of existence, but tho executive branch was kept up under Principal Chief W. C. Rogers. In 1907, when tho stnte of Oklahoma wns formed, all members of the trlbo becamo citi zens. The task of dissolving tho Choro kees, which might, In a genernl way, bo compared with that of winding up the nffnlrs of mi immense estate, hnd, by July 1 lust, progressed to such n degreo that it only remained ror tlio united States to execnto n few deeds to small trnc's of laud. All community property had been converted Into cash and each Chero kee ban received bis allotment. Com missioner of Indian Affairs Ctito Soils, lu the nenr future, will dis tribute tho remaining ensh on hand, $r,on,t)00, or about $li per capita, to the 41,789 members of the tribe. The Principal Chler, W. C. Rogers, ban been Invited to send lu his resignation. Agreement slmllnr to thnt with tlio Cherokecs wns mnde with tho Chlcknsnws, Choctaws. Creeks and Senilnoles, nnd the work of winding up their nffnlrs Is now In progress. At Its completion these four tribes nlso will be dissolved. The Crook mid Seminole nations will be tho next to cense to exist ns trlbnl en titles, possibly within n year. Thus n consldernble part of the remnant of A in mien u Indians Is gradually merging Into the body of Amerlcnn citizenship. PIANAGAN & BENNETT BANK OI.DKST HANK IN COOS COUNTY. KHtflhlishcd JBHI).
