The eastern CheroUccs mourn N. 1.
Sinit.li, their friend, father mid chief fur
many vears. He died last evening after
a Ion illness. He will be buried Friday
itli masonic honors at Yellow Hill.
Richard.
The dispatch, which was sent by Chief
Smith's son, Richard II. Smith, will lie
read with rcirrct Jjy many people in
Asheville and all over Western North
Carolina. Chiif Smith was the most
prominent member of the Eastern baud
of Cherokee Indians in Sw.iincount v. He
was born in Cherokee county about f0
years ao and in that count v wns reared.
He received n very fair edue ion and
was always looked upon by his iieoplc as
:i s.-ile counselor, lie was the soul ol
honor and tua''c friends anioiiLr the
whites wherever he went. He was a
man of splendid physique, straight as an
nrrow, wmle Ins hair hung in jet black
curls aoout ins Mioulilers.
Chief Smith's last visit to Asheville
was last year, when he came h:-rc with a
number of his tribe to take part in the
celebration of Huncumbc'scciitcnnial, Au-
Kiist 11)11. I lie Indians camped on
vtimocriaiui avenue, and tneir camp
attracted crowns continually. tnev
Have their native dances at night and
t housands witnessed them. One ot these
occasions 19 particularly remembered.
when Chief Smith made an address to
his people in the native toneue and then
translated his words so that they miiht
lc understood bv the whites. His address
was full of uood advice to the red men
ot the trilje.
Chief Smith had never been quite well
since lie returned from that visit to lus
home in Yellow 11 ill. He was a sufferer
from liiiLrht's disease, which at last
claimed its victim.
As lias lieen said, lluct binilli was
held in the highest esteem by his iicople
He was for ciht years their chief, which
nice he jjave up only a very few
years ago. He took a lively interest
in everything that tended to the
further civilization of the tribe, and
winie lioiuinir me place ot duel lived in
Washington some time workinir for the
welfare of the Hastei u baud, whose pro
gress he had at heart. Tins was durinjj
Cleveland s lust administration.
The dead man wasa prominent Mason
and this fraternity will bury him tomor
row afternoon at Yellow Hill, iu the city
of the deail that is peopled by his friends
and kinsmen.
Chief Smith was ouc-Iourih white. He
leaves a wife, and two sons and three
daughters. The daughters were eduea
ted at J nelson college, Henderson ville,
mid are handsome types of their race.
One of them, Miss Lottie, was particu
larly good looking and attractive.
Chief Smith was a good man and the
Indians will long mourn his death.

prescribed by the law has been reached.
That is to say, as many silver certificates
are tiow outstanding as there are stan
dard silver dollars coined and in the
treasury to redeem them. Standard sil
ver dollars was issued under the act of
1 878, commonly known as the Illand
let. Under this law 38'J,93o.37 t stand

Washington, Aug. 3. Indications
that the Iiehring Sea arbitration com
mission will conclude its deliberation
and agree on its decision before the end
of this week, if it already has not done
so, are given in official information re
ceived at the State department that Sen
ator Morgan and Justice Harlan, arbi
trators on the part ol the I nited States,
will sail from Southampton for New
York Saturday. It is stated at the State
department that Morgan and Harlan
could not leave Paris until the arbitra
tors had agreed on their verdict, and it
is presumed that the commission has set
the date for voting ou the five points at
issue, thus enabling the gentlemen
named to make definite arrangements
for sailing.

Chicago, Aug. 3. The folio wiug is the
substance of the resolution adopted by
the silver convention;
All legislation deniuneti.iug silver and
restricting the coinage thereof must he
immediately and completely rccalcd by
an net restoring the coinage of the coun
try to the conditions established by the
soundness of the nation. Wc protest
against the financial policy of the United
States being made up on the opinion or
policies of any foreign governments.
v e assert that the only remedy lor the
financial trouble is to open the mints of
the nation to gold and silver on the
equal terms, at the old ratio of 10 of sil-
vre to one ol gold.
Section 3 protests ncainst the repeal of
the Sherman net, except by an act restor
ing free bi-mciallic coiling".
1 he fifth resolution calls attention to
the fact that national hank and legal
tender money of whatever kind has not
fallen in value a particle, and suggests
for the consideration of citizens that the
refusal of opponents of bimetallism to
propose any substitute for the present
aw or to elaborate any plan for the lu-
turc, indicates cither an ignorance ol our
financial needs or an unwillingness to
take the public into their confidence.

Si:w iikk, Aug. .J. A new and unex

banks to increase their circulation from

Chicago, III., Aug. 2. The opinion is
unanimous among the lawyers that the
gates of the World's l'air will be opened
every day in the week from now until
finally closed next October. The Appe
late court will not he in session until
after the midsummer vacation which
ends iu September and the appeal prayed
for yesterday cannot therefore be passed
on until October. Ilcsidcs, the appeal is
from an order in contempt proceedings
and a decision in the case will have no
effect on the injunction order, which
must now be observed until the Appellate
