The Indian and Federal Author-
ities Seem Determined to
Have no Town There.
TULSA, I. T.. SEPT. 16.—(Special)-
Excitement is running high in Red
Fork over the stand taken by United
States District Attorney Soper. The
Creek chief has also taken a hand in
the fight, and it appears that some one
will have to pay very dearly for selling
lands of the Creek nation. It Is un-
lawful to sell or attempt to sell prop-
erty of Indians, and District Attorney
Soper so warned Red Fork boomers.
The interior department also gave
warning not to develop, or take away
any oil or minerals found upon or un-
derneath the lands of Indians.
The Red Fork muddle seems to be
growing more and more complicated
from week to week, and speculators in
town lots-so-called are "up against it"
pretty strong.
The government has never had Red
Fork surveyed, neither have they indi-
cated that there was to be a town es-
tablished there. So far as a town of
Red Fork is concerned, it has no legal
status, and is considered as public do-
main. Just what the outcome will be J#
a question for the I'nlted States court:*
to determine.
It appears that the Hon. J. George
Wright, Indian inspector for the In-
dian Territory, has taken a hand in the
game, and from reports current, it
looks rather dark for Red Fork.
The people In Tulsa are watching the
course of events across the river and
will not take any chances. They pro-
pose to wait for their deeds to town
lots before exposing any oil. There are
two drills ready to begin operations
whenever they can do so without vio-
lating any rulings of the secretary of
the interior. Deeds to town lots in
Tulsa will be issued early in November
and oil wells will then be safe from hin-
drance 1)3' the government.

HOLDENVILLE, SEPT. 16.—(Sp.
cial)—Your correspondent was much
surprised and delighted with what h«
saw and experienced at lloldensville. in
the Creek nation, at the Junction of thei
Choctaw, O. & G. and the Frisco Ra 1-
ways.
Holdenville Is forty-four miles west'
from South McAlester and seventy
miles east from oklahoma City, and
has a population of I',000 or more, and
its thirty large two story brick and
stone buildings, built of home material
convinces one of its substantial charac -
ter and business prosperity. It is bid-!
ding strong for the first place among
the rapidly growing cities of th" Indi m
Territory. Its site is commanding and
picturesque in the centre of a beaut
fill rolling prairie, skirted by native
forests of oak and hickory. The \ n i .
and fertility of the farm surrounding
Holdenville, in the great valley !• - u • i
the North Fork and Canadian rivers,1
are unsurpassed for richness and va-
riety of products any where west ,f the
great Mississippi.
