The Choctaw and Chickasaw Nations
Have Decided to Bring Suit
Against Government for Re
covery of Money
Washington, D. C. — Following
closely upon the heels of the charges
made by United States Senator (lore
Involving Representative B. 8. Mc-
Guire of Pawnee, a United States sen-
ator from Khe middle west, two ex-
senators hailing from Kansas and Ne-
braska, J. P. McMvray of McAlester
and a prominent politician of Lawton,
conies the information that Represen-
tative Creager of Muskogee was tho
man referred to by the Lawton sena-
tor also as having been offered a con-
sideration for support of the celebrat j
ed McMurray contracts with Individ- .
ual members of *he Choctaw and
Chickasaw nations.
Here are some of the things the
house committee probably will in-
vestigate while in Oklahoma:
(1) Why McMurray should have re-
ceived a fee of 1750,000 from the
Choctaw and Chickusaw nations five
or six years ago in connection with
litigation growing ' ut of the citizen-
ship cases when ae a matter of fact,
the firm of Mansfield, McMurray &
Cornish was drawing $10,000 a year
from the Choctaw and Chickasaw In-
dians as tribal attorneys together with
an unlimited expense account. The
Choctaw nation has since decided to
bring suit against the government
for the recovery of this money on
the ground that under treaty stipula-
tion? the government pledged itself
to < I and allot the Indians with-
out cost to the red man.
(2) Who should win the $750,000 ,
fee and whether or not any improper
methods were resorted to in bringing 1
about its payment. In this connection j
certain members of the Choctaw and :
the Chickasaw citizenship court are
charged with having received slices ]
out of this fund; also several public >
men.
(3) The contracts with the Choc- j
taws and Chlckasaws for the recovery
of $606,936.08 from the government
representing the value of Chickasaw
freedmen allotments, the value of ,
which the court of claims held should
be reimbursed to the Indiana
Representative McGuire on June 18
offered an amendment to the bill pro-
viding for the payment of the claim
with four per cent interest on the
judgment and attorney fees. As the
court of claims had made no provis-
ion for the payment of the attorney
fees, the house refused to adopt Mr.
McGuire's amendment. Neither did
the judgment provide for interest for
the Choctaw and ChickaBaw nations.
But it afforded an elegant opportunity
to legislate the government out of
attorney fees, under the guts# of lib-
erality toward the Indians. Mr. Mc-
Murray would have received about
$41,000 had Mr. McGuire succeeded
with his amendment.
It is charged that the firm never
concluded the cases and that this
duty devolved upon McCurtain and
Hill, who succeeded them as tribal at-
torneys. •-* % 'Is -id
(4) The McHarg contract with the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations in-
volving $12,000 annual retainer.
(5) The interests at Washington of
J. F. McMurray of McAlester, Richard
Adams, Washington, R. C. Million, Mc-
Alester, Governor D. H. Johnston of
Choctaw nation, Frank Bourland, Ard-
more, ex-Senator Chester I. Long of
Kansns, and ex-Senator J. R. Thurs-
ton of Nebraska.

OIL CASE NEAR AN END
8tated That Attorney General Has
Decided to Compromise Matter
Guthrie, Okla.—It is unofficially
stated that Attorney General West
has practically decided to offer the
Waters-Pierce Oil company certain
terms when the case is taken up
again at Enid, which if agreed to,
he will dismiss the suit. The pro-
posed conditions are substantially as
follows:
That the Waters-Pierce company
be penalized for violations of terri-
torial law in the amount to be agreed
upon; discrimination in price agains*.
consumers to be expressly prohibited,
but nothing in this provision to be
construed as preventing the com-
pany from arranging just and reason-
able sliding scale of prices based up-
on the quantity consumed; the com-
pany to be restrained from entering
into or creating any trust relations
with any competing corporation; that
a maximum price which the defend-
ant company may exact for oil or oil
products to be fixed from the time
of the settlement of this suit until
such time as the corporation commis-
sion can determine whether or not i4.
has a constitutional right to fix
prices.
VOTE ON GRANDFATHER CLAUSE
Governor Issues Proclamation Calling
Election on August 2
Oklahoma City, Okla. — Governor
Haskell has issued a proclamation call-
ing for a vote on the "grandfather
clause" on August I, the same day on
which state primaries are to be held.
This proclamation follows close on the
heels of a decision of Supreme Court
Justice Williams, Wednesday, in
which he overruled the objections filed
b*. Jim Harris to the initiative peti
tion. The ballot title has been pre
pared by Attorney General West and
certified to by Secretary of State Bill
Cross, and will be submitted to Will
Linn, secretary of the state election
board, to be placed upon the ballot.
The "grandfather clause" is a con
stltutlonal amendment initiated by a
petition of 42,440 voters, asking that
an educational test be required of all
voters.
Republicans are up in arms and de-
clare they will continue to fight the
proposition. Just the method they In
tend to use Is not known. It is claimed
by republican leaders, If they do not
succeed in defeating the proposition
before election, that they will defeat
it at the general election.
Hugo's Waterworks Are Tested
Hugo, Okla.—An official test of
Hugo's wcterworka system, recently
constructed, has been made at the
request of a representative of the
state fire rating board with the view
of reducing the insurance rate in this
city. With only fifty feet of wa'.cr
in the standplpe, a stream of water
was thrown far above the three s ory
buildings. Hugo's fire fighting equip-
ment was pronounced the bent In 'lie
state for a city of Hugo's size.
JUDGE DISMISSED CASE
Will Not Assume Jurisdiction In In-
junction Proceedings
Guthrie, Okli.—That the conditions
imposed upon Oklahoma in the enab-
ling act were for the general interest
of all the citizens of the United States
and not to subserve the individual or
private interests of any one or more
citizens of Oklahoma or any locality
thereof, was held here by Judge Ralph
E. Campbell of the United States cir-
cuit court, and he dismissed the case
filed by Guthrie, asking temporary In-
| junctions against the removal of state
records.
"The United States government In
this case may decide to acquiesce in
the removal of the capital," said Judge
Campbell. "It is conceded that plain-
tiff has no vested right in its remain-
ing at Guthrie, therefore is no pos-
sible theory in my judgment on which
this case can be maintained. It can-
not therefore be said to be a case
arising under the constitution, laws, or
treaties of the United States, and the
jurisdiction of this court fails."
The entire decision makes strong
the stand taken by B. F. Rurwell in his
great argument for Oklahoma City,
that the enabling act is binding; it
Is a contract between the United
8tates and Oklahoma, and only the
United States c*n complain should
any of Its terms be violated.
Judge Campbell does not pass upon
the validity of the enabling act fixing
the state capital at Guthrie, and at
first glance it might appear that the
case was thrown out on a technicality
and that the question of enabling act
still overshadowed the siuation. A
careful reading of his opinion shows,
however, that he has absolutely taken
from Guthrie any special or individual
rights in the state capital of Okla-
homa or any right to contect regard-
ing the same.
Guthrie, through Judge Burford, at
once served notice of appeal to the
supreme court of the United States
and the appeal was granted by Judge
Campbell. What else the Guthrie at-
torneys may have in mind is uncer-
tain. The injunctions are still pend-
ing in the state courts.
It is regarded as more than pos-
sible that all opposition to the re-
moval of the capital tr Oklahoma City
will now rapidly dissolve.
