Congressman D. F. Flynn of
Oklahoma arrived in Wichita last
evening from Anadarko where
ne naa Deen ior a week and to a
reporter for the Eagle made sev
era! atatementa which will be of
intense interest to the people of
Oklahoma. "I am sorry to ei
press it'' said Mr. Flynn "bat iu
my opinion all hope of opening
the Kiowa and Comanche conntry
to settlement next spring is gone.
As yon know. I have held oat
from the first that the allotments
woaki be completed and the conn
try opened in the spring. I had
not been on the ground. I know
now that this will not be done.
It is only through kindness of
Secretary Ilitchoock that meat
of the present allotments bare
been made at all soma 230 have
been made for he has given ns
the balk of the whole appropria
tion for allotment in the nation.
"Now cornea a new danger into
the situation. Under the law tt
may be held mandatory that all
allotments be completed by De-
cember 6 next. They now demand
that the work of alloting cease on
after that date. . This will be for
the secretary to construe. The
chief trouble of all is the matter
f surveyors' marks. ' Many are
gone. It is almost impossible to
locate them. I have secured a
piece of wood eight Inches thick
from a tree. This had grown
over and hidden the surveyor's
blaze. Think of it. Some marks
are gone entirely. The country
was surveyed twenty-seven years
ago. It took low men two years
to sarvey it then and as it there
are four townships in the Wichita
mountains which have never been
surveyed. Just what will be
done in the natter "of missing
marks I do not know. If the
allotments to be made are made
are made before Jane 1 that is
next year congress will have to
pass immediately at its next t tt-
sion appropriation for $75000 i"or
the work. In mf opinion nothing
less will suffice.
The whole outlook is grei -
discouraging. I had contended ir
plicity on an opening in the early
spring. It ' cannot be in the
spring now
It was deemed about two weeks
ago to dispense with the services
ot Special Agents llawley ' and
Reynolds and place the entire
matter of allotment under the con-
trol of Indian Inspector Nesler
who'is very energetic and am-
bitious to complete the work as
rapidly as possible.
'Colonel Randlett the agent
is. in my judgment one ' of the
best agents in the service of the
government. The Indians tave
the utmost confidence in him and
this (act alone will have a ten
dency to expedite the work of
allotment several months. . !'
The situation there la one
wbeie the agent realizes that
allotment is Inevitable and that
the sooner it is accomplished the
better it will be for the Indian
and the government."

APACHE RESERVATION.
Congressman Stephens Will
Seek to nave it
( Opened.
; El Paso Tex. Nov. 13. Con-
gressman Jonn II. Stephens of
this district left this morning for
he Mascalero Apache Indian res-
ervation above Alamagordo N.
H. He will thoroughly investi-
gate the conditions at the reserva-
tion for information in connection
with the bill he is preparing to
introduce in. the next congress
for the opening of the reservation
to settlement. '
"I am convinced that the bill
will pass" be said uand will lose
no time In preparing to pat it
through. Aal bare stated all
along the reservations in tho wist
are the best part of the conntry
and the Indians are putting it to
very little use. I will provide in
'he bill that 150 acres be set aside
ir every Indian and the rest of
e land be opened for settle-
ment - Just so long as we sup-
port the Indians and take all re-
sponsibility off their shoulders
jast so long will they remain nn
civilized and a detriment to the
cdnntry. . To throw 'them on their
own responsibility now and give
them sufficient land on which to
txke a good living will make bet-
ter citizens of them and give good
homes to many American people
now in need of new lands."

Noah was one of tho earliest
advertisers He advertised that
he wontd Bail on a certain date.
Those who did not ; betieve Jn
advertising tailed to get tickets;
and were left in the wet during
the forty days rain without am-
berellas or bathing suits. As the
most of them couldn't swim it is
thought that they took to the
trees and became monkeys.
There are three distinct classes
of Indians in the Territory the
full blood Indian mixed-blood
Indian and the Indian for revenue
only the latter kind is bound to
make tho Indian business pay
and when he don't he can leave
off being an Indian. Fort Gibson
