THE INDIAN
COMMISSION'S PLANS.
Cherokee Enrollment Begins
Next May.
Hon. Tams Bixby returned to
the city from Washington Sunday
for -a few days having been called
home to look after important mat-
tars before the Dawes commission.
As to what was going on in Wash-
ington he stated that the commis-
sion or at least three of its mem-
bers Messrs. Dawes Bixby and
fcKennon were there to confer
with the committees of congress
and the officials regarding their
work and to look after the appro-
priations lor the coming fiscal year
which Mr. Bixby stated would be
$300000 of which $296000 was
the appropriation proper and four
thousand was a contingent lund.
He also stated that congress was
very anxious to wind up matters in
.the Indian Territory and did not
cut down the appropriation with
a -view of retrenchment but simply
thought the commission had out-
lined a little too much work for the
coming year and lelt as though
the amount appropriated would be
most advisable.
The commission seems to stand
in the best light and congress is
willing to give them all the aesist-
ance they can use in the way of ap-
propriations. Mr. Bixby 6tated
that the appropriation was as large
aB they expected. He spoke of
several matters and measures be-
fore congress and of the bill pre-
sented by Mr. StephenB of Texas
asking for the re-opening of the en-
l-ollments. In his opinion the bill
will .receive little if any recogni
tion and was probably gotten up at
the instigation of certain lawyers.
The bill he believes will receive
the most recognition is one pre-
sented by Senator Piatt of Connec-
ticut which makes provision for
the adjustment of leases and non-
eitizens' leases and also a provis
ion in reference to Chickasaw and
Choctaw intermarried caseB allow-
ing them to be settled in the court
of claims. Mr. Bixby says the In-
iian committees were very cour-
'snsinaVaslfccr.ea. deal of in-
m 7. J thiB country
the whole fifteen members of the
house committee being present.
He also says he expects to be in
Washington by the 14th at which
time they will take up the matter
of a Creek treaty irith a delegation
from this nation and that a treaty
will likely be cocsumated within
a few days and in his opinion
ratified by the first of March. Con-
gress is willing to make any fair
treaty.
Mr. Bixby also spoke of Chero
kee matters and said the Cherokee
treaty would again be taken up
with a delegation from that nation
in Washington. In regard to the
Cherokee nation Mr. Bixby stateB
that the enrollment will begin
there about the first of May if
not by the first of April and as
eoon as the commission returns
rom Washington all the workun-
ler their supervision will be push
sd rapidly. Phoenix.

POWER OF THE PRESS.
Demand for Carefully Con-
ducted Newspapers.
"There are three estates in par-
liament" said Edmund Burke
"but yonder in the reporters' gal-
lery sits the Fourth Estate more
important far than they all."
The modern newspaper is a use-
ful paper. It is honest. It w
helpful. Wherever you find a
newspaper noted for its success you
will find a newspaper noted for its
usefulness; for its incorruptibility;
for its strict adherence to what it
believes to be right. There are
practically no exceptions to this
rule.
The modern newspaper has be-
come a necessity in every family
and the people will not long sup-
port a newspaper that is not hon-
est. The vicious publications
never long prosper; the people will
not have them. The vicious pub
lications that sprangupafew years
ago are nearly all dead. The peo-
ple did not want them but there
is an increasing demand for news-
papers that are carefully and con-
scientiously conducted.
The people grumble about the
newspapers a great deal but the
facts are the newspapers are as fair
and just as their editors can make
them. Every rogue who is celled
to account by the newspapers talks
about a "venal" prees.
Some people have mistaken
grumbling at the newspapers as
dissatisfaction. The people also
grumble at the railroads yet they
are proud of the railroads aB an
evidence of progress. No railroad
company ever gets a fair trial be-
fore a jury although railroad com-
panies are managed with the great-
est fairness and liberality. When
a railroad company unadvoidably
does an injury it will carefully pay
$2 where the injury amounted to
only half as much. The popular
theory is when a jury is unjust to
a railroad that "the railroad can
6tand it." Justice is not consid-
ered. Nor is justice considered in criti-
cising newspapers. Itis impossible
to please every one yet no class of
men try harder than editors. Al-
though the newspapers are taken
everywhere their editors are al-
ways unpopular. Unpopularity
is one of the unavoidable certain-
ties of the business. Few editors
become'candidates for office; few
editors are appointed to important
offices because of their unpopular-
ity. The explanation of the un-
popularity of editors is easy to
find; the multiplicity of critics; a
restlesB striving people who de-
mand that others do better than
they do themselves.
The newspapers are a wondsr-
ful power. This power is becom-
ing more respected and respecta-
ble every day. The power the
church once exercised the press
now exercises and the press uses
its power with increasing 'conser-
vatism. In declaring that the newspapers
are not what they should be a man
is stumbling around in a powder
house with matches in his pock-
ets. The press is becoming more
unfriendly to the church every day
because of unwarranted attacks
lrom the pulpit. If a big man and
a little man live in the same
neighborhood and hate each other
the best you can do for the little
man is to advise him to refrain
from throwing rocks at the big
man's house. Chicago Tribune.
THE JAS. M. TAYLOR KILLING.
But Little Additional Light Upon the
Tragedy as Yet.
The latest reports from Deming
N. M. throw but little light on the
killing of James M. Taylor. It
seems the brothers were involved
in Eome kind of trouble and to save
his own life Joseph Taylor shot his
brother. Joseph rode to Deming
about fifteen miles and surren-
dered to the authorities. The cor-
oner's jury had nothing but bear-
Bay testimony on which to base a
verdict as Joseph Taylor was un-
able to attend on account of his
wounds which had been inflicted
with a knife The jury returned a
verdict that James M. Taylor died
from a pistol shot in the hand of
Joseph Taylor. Mrs. Taylor was
in El Paso at the time. Joe Tay
lor was released on $5000 bond.

ami was authorized to begin bus-

IMPORTANT DECISION.
Chickasaw Leaseholders Sus-
tained in Court.
The first decision in the noted
land lease cases in the Chickasaw
nation that have been causing so
much trouble in that country was
announced by Judge Townsend of
the Southern district Thursday.
Since the first of the year more
than 500 land lease suits have been
filed in the United States court in
that district. The suits grew out
of the attempt to enforce the Cur-
tis bill whicrTterminates all land
and grazing leaEes January 1. The
Chickasaw citizens were the plaint-
iffs in these suits. They wanted
to get possession ot their land in
order to take their allotments
thereon.
Judge Townsend held in the
case of Finch against Snider
wherein Finch sued for possession
of land that the section of the
Curtis act which provides that
where valuable and permanent
improvements have been made the
defendants may hold the land un-
til the improvements are paid for
is not in conflict with the eection
that provides that all leases ter-
minate January 1. The plaintiffs
relied on the termination of leases.
The case was referred to the mas-
ter to determine the value of the
improvements and repoiton them.
Thousands of leaseholders today
will be pleased at the opinion of
Judge Townsend. It gives them
the right to receive the benefits of
their improvements by holding
the land. The opinion is the first
to be announced by any court in
in the territory.
LAST WEEK'S STORM.
Trees Broken Sheds Unroofed and
General Havoc'Relgned.
The change in course of the wind
and the fall of the temperature last
week was rapid and terrible.
From uncomfortably warm to freez-
ing came in a few minutes accom-
panied by a terrific wind storm.
Trees were broken to pieces sheds
unrooted and general havoc reign-
ed. July Bell's tent which has
stood the blasts of many winters
went d6wn in the storm and July
only escaped disaster by being in
the United States boarding estab-
lishment at Muskogee. Neil York
lost the roof of a shed and the
wood house at the Cobb hotel was
partially wrecked. Dr. Clink-
scales'. maples in front of his resi-
dence suffered considerably as did
shade and ornamental trees and
shrubbery in other parts of the
city.
REFERRED TO COnMITTEES
Claremore City Council Discusses the
Smallpox Situation.
Monday evening council met to
discuss smallpox small men and
Bmall measures. Dr. Fortner'B
diagnosis of Rev. Monger's case
was reterred to the committee on
fakes. Dr. Fite's report on the
Herbert Moore case was next
taken up but was referred later
to the committee on weather and
and wind. The probable result of
crossing the $50000 germ with the
smallpox microbe was left with
the Cherokee medical board and
their report will be anxiously
awaited. The stand taken by our
own physicians was respectfully
referred to the people and the
keeping of our town was committed
to providence. Claremore Courier
Seminole Burning Cases.
But two men remain to be tried
in the Seminole burning cases.
These men are Claude Roper and
Bird Ivanhoe. The Times has it
on presumably good authority that
when these cases are ended there
will be a strong pressure brought
to bear to secure pardon for some
of the kidnappers. There are two
or three serving time who were
the leaders in the Heminole affair;
they will be left to serve out their
time aB the evidence showed them
to oe the instigators of the diabol-
ical deed.

lard left yesterday for her home

DEATH OF BILL COOK.
The Noted Outlaw Dies in
the Penitentiary.
Bill Cook died Wednesday last in
penitentiary at Albany New York.
He waB sentenced in 1S95 to forty-
five years imprisonment for high-
way robbery. Cook was a Cher-
okee and lived about Tahlequah
and in the country west toward
Grand river. A half dozen vears
8go he was considered one of the
worst despeardoes in all the west
ern country.
He died of consumption. Not
long ago his friendB in the Chero-
kee nation endeavored to obtain a
pardon for him that he might come
home to die as the prison phy-
sicians informed him that be could
not possibly live more than a short
time. Nothing came of the effort
and on Feb. 7 he passed away.
V. C. T. U. NOTES.
February 17 1900 a National Day of
Thank Offering.
The 17th of February will be ob-
served the world over by the W.C.
T U. as Thankoffering day it be-
ing the heavenly birthday of Fran
ces E. Willard.
The only great monument the
W. C. T. U. is striving to erect in
honor of her is this work of organ-
ization in the temperance cause.
For this purpose this day is set
aside.
It is wonderful to think that on
February 17th from Norway to
Australia from Spain to Japan
from England to California and
from Alaska to Florida there will
be little groups of earnest women
and men gathered together to fur-
ther the work for which Frances
E. Willard laid down her life. She
had a "do everything" policy but
that for which she so faithfully
and hopefully worked may be
summed up briefly in these words:
peace purity temperance.
HUNQ THE RENTER.
One Way of Oetting Rid of an Obsti-
nate Leaseholder.
The Kansas City Star of Thurs-
day says that F. G. Richardson a
leaseholder sixteen miles south-
east ot Sapulpa refused to turn
over his land to the Indiau from
whom be was leasing. This anger-
ed the Indian and he in company
with other disgruntled Indians
visited the home of Mr.Richardson
Tuesday night put a rope around
his neck and dragged him to a
ravine about a mile distant. He
was hauled up to a limb of a tree
and made to promhe to leave the
country within twenty four hours.
The injured man was brought to
Sapulpa yesterday for medical
treatment. His body is badly
bruised as he was very roughly
handled by the mob. Several
names ot those who were in the
mob wern known and have been
reported to the United States au
thorities at Muskogee.
"White Haired Woman."
Mr. Wm. Noble of South McAl-
ester came up this morning. No-
ble is a prominent candidate for
the South McAlester postoflice
should have it at the hands ot the
administration.
Anent the South McAlester post-
office a good story albeit a true
one is told of the present incum-
bent Mrs. Mary A. Potter a Cleve-
land appointee.
A gentleman well known as a
man of truth and veracity and
prominet in social financial and
legal circles in the territory waH at
Washington just before the holi-
days. He was calling on a repub-
can senator one of the leaders
and there was another senator
present. After awhile Secretary
Hay dropped in and then two or
three republican congressmen.
The' were talking about Indian
Territory matters cursorily when
Joe Bristow tho postmaster gen-
eral dropped in. It waB an in-
formal republican gathering pure-
ly accidental and the territory
man was the only democrat in the
bunch. After awhile the topic
drifted to the postoflice depart-
ment. Tiie territory man said
to Bristow "What are you going
to with tho South McAlester post-
oflice? We have a democrat in
office down there and there are two
republicans'dead sot'on the office."
There was a stillness that could be
heard to the center of Pennsylva
nia avenue but only for a minute
Bristow looked the republican sen
ator squarely in the eye when the
latter said: "Bristow you will
have to let that white haired wom-
an alone" and the senator was
seconded by the two republican
congressmen. Muskogee Timse.

in the spring. His farm is about
two miles out and he can easily
come in at morning to attend his
store and return home at night.
Mr. Crowell's girls are all boys
and he has witfffy chosen to give
them a little corn field culture in
their growing up thus giving them
some beneficial accomplishments
which will make them useful as
as well as ornamental. The boys

Down at Davis in the Chickasaw
country they are are having
trouble over the collection of the
tribal tax. The dry goods store of
D. Wolf at that place was closed
this week on account of refusal to
pay the 1 per cent Chickasaw tax.
A dispatch in the Kansas City
Star says he will be ejected as an
intruder and the Farmer's bank
will be closed unless it puys the
tax of $200. The Carroll & Ren-
nie hardware store was closed
Tuesday by the police for refusing
to pay the tax.
