The last roll of the Miami Indians was taken at Peru last week, showing about 350 survivors of this once powerful tribe. They are scattered all along the W abash Valley, throughout the west.

The sum which they will receive is for annuities that they were deprived of forty years ago. by reason of some sixty Frenchmen having been placed upon the Miami pay rolls without right, which deprived the Miamis from their just rights. In the words of the act authorizing the distribution of the above named amount it is "to pay any money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, to the Indiana Miami Indians residing in the state of Indiana or elsewhere, which sum of money was by the United States taken from their tribal funds against their protest and in violation of the treaty of 1854 .and paid to other persons not entitled to it."'

Ex-Congressman J. B. Cheadle, of Frankfort, is credited with having left the republican party on the silver question. Mr. Cheadle is absent from that city on business connected with an insurance company however, it is pretty thoroughly understood there that he is an ultra free silver man. In a recent communication to a morning paper there he declared himself: "No honest bimetallist can afford to vote for any man for office who is not in favor of freo silver, becaute there can be only two sides to this question: those who are in favor of it and those who are opposed to it. It is a question of vital importance No mugwumps need apply. Put none but silver men on duty." Mr. Cheadle is known to be opposed to exPresident Harrison, and it was under protest that he supported him for reelection. In the communication above referred to he said: -If ex-President Harrison was a silver man, 1 should be for him. Ho would not sign a free silver bill, therefore we might just as well have Cleveland there so far as silver is concerned.

So far as Mr. Cheadle's leaving the republican party is concerned, nothing definite is known at Frankfort, as ho has made no statement to that effect. The PopulistB claim him, but tho republicans say that he will bo in line with the old party when the real battle for supremacy beginB.
