have remarked upon the defects
of the lamp which exploded just
prior to his having lighted it
Inmates of the county jaij will
probably testify to' this fact'

mat of the county jail by au-
thority of lalw having been 'con-
victed of the crime of cruelty to
animals He was in the corridor

received a large share 'of' the
gasoline He died March 1st
from the effects of the burns

Lessees of Big Pasture Have
Removed Fifty Miles of
" Three-wire Fence
Imssccs in tlie big pasturo have
confiscated over forty miles of a'
good three-wire fence to their
own use since the flrst of the
year The attention of the Inte-
rior department was called to
their violation a month ago and
they sent an inspector down into
the pasture to ascertain the ex-
tent of the theft The Indian
payment came on immediately
after the agent had departed on
his mission and he was called
bock to his duties at other points
It was impossible in tlie limited
time given for him to ascertain
who the guilty parties were
Tuesday Sub-agent W I Sil-
cott and James Simmons were
summoned by Indian Agent
Blackmon of Ahndarko to pro
ceed to tlie pasture and divide
the wire fences thereon to tlie
members of the Comanche In-
dians This wire is being given
only to Indians who are in need
of it 'At the opening of this
country to settlement a large
quantity of wire was distributed
to the Indians to be used in- fenc
ing their allotments - Many of
the Indians did not receive wire
at that time although over fif-
teen tons were distributed by
Sub-agent Silcott at the Red
Store
Fences that form one or more
sides to a quarter section leased
for agricultural purposes are not
being torn down This is under
the construction of the law as
solved out by the Indian agent

LEO J CURTIS Cashier
Tho agents went over tho greater
part of the pasture and they find
that fully 50 miles of fence is
missing Most of "the stolen
fence was located south of Deep
Red There is only a very small
portion of the range fences ly-
ing soutli of that river that were
intact These agents located a
good per cent of the missjng
fence upon the leases held for
agricultural purposes In sev-
eral instances the wir j was over
twenty-five miles from where it
was originally - located When
Mr Silcott approached these
lessees they did not deny secuf
ing the wire but entered the
plea that when they saw other
persons taking it that tliey were
of tlie opinion that as they had
tlie land leased from the govern-
ment they had os much right to
tho wire as anyone and took it
They did not consider it stealing
They thought Lecause tlie prop-
erty was to become tlie property
of the Indians upon the expira
tion of the lease that they were
violating no law in taking it Tlie
department is very anxious to
regain this wire and no action
will he brought against these
lessees if they will return the
fence- One person hail over one-
half ton 'of wire wound upon
smhiIs on liis premises
' Easter Picnic
- A large crowd of Temple peo-
ple spent Easter down on Cache
creek The day was most favor-
able for tlie occasion and the
rippling water afforded boating
and fishing for those who wished
to indulge but up to the present
time no great catch has been re-
ported Tlie grounds chosen for
the picriic is an ideal 'spot the
tanks of the creek being lined
with huge trees and the grassy
carpet dotted with fresh violets
on which to spread the lunch
and a canopy of foliage to shield
the participants from the warm
rays of sun The gentle breeze
the fresh air and out door exer-
cise was invigorating and an
agreeable contrast to the dingy
offices the tiresome counters
and the indoor avocation most of
them follow week in and week
out Them were about fifty in
the party and the presence of
colored eggs told it was Easter
Everyone reports a most enjoya-
ble time
Martin’s Announcement
In this issue of the Tribune
will be found the announcement
of G W Martin as a candidate
for the office of Register of Deeds
for Comanche county subject to
action of the Democratic primary
to be held August 4th He says:
“I am a farmer and enjoy the so-
ciety of the farmer and earn my
living as they do I was born in
the United States and am an
American citizen — claim no title
to royalty — just plain farmer
Martin and like many of our
people believe extravagance a
crime and poverty a misfortune
I believe governments should be
run on an economical basis and
in the interest of all and not the
few and as I place my name be-
fore you asking for your suf-
frage I do it acknowledging that
I have an “ax to grind” and ask
you to assist me and hold my ax
while I turn the crank Do not
make any mistakes I am not
from Yale or Princeton but a
plain every day kickory shirt
farmer and would look after
your business as I do my own
business at home’’
