When they were brought, the New York

the attendant.
"About fifty miles an hour, sir." was
the reply.
"Then." quietly observed Sullivan, "if
you will boll these eggs another mile,
they'll be all right."

"The indictment of Governor Magtey

torneys for the nation Is purely technical
and arise* frotii the <act that the nation
has provided means for protecting it
interests for the past several years
'"The Atoka agreement provides that

ways been held to ^ a part of th
lar necessary expenses of the trilwl gov-
erment. For this reason appropriation!
for the fees and expenses of our attor-
neys for the past several years have not
been submitted to the president.

sent of the secretary of the Interior, and
It is apparent that in raising a question
at the end of the slxtfl year, he <!s moved
by motives other thnn a desire to pro-
tect our Interests
"Every dollar that has been expended
for this purpose has been made the sub-
ject of political discussions through every
campaign in recent years, and the people
have approved our course by overwhelm-
ingly majorities. Not only" have our at-
torneys represented the Chdckasaw na-

tions. Not only this but they have rep-
resented the government upon the re-
quest and under the direction of tho
secretary himself.
It Is apparent that the secretary Is
moved by a desire to retaliate.
