THE BABY r.HROLLMDNT
K (C Alborty has been making
inquiries in reganl to allotment
of the new babies enrolled, and
the best information he can get
is that the names of those en-
rolled will be sent to Washington
in batches of 1,000 for approval
of the Secretary of the Interior,
and no allotments can be made
until the approved rolls are re
turned.
The belief is that allotments
cannot begin earlier than Sep-
tember 1st.
It is estimated that the enroll-
ment for tin* Cherokee Nation
will reach ahout 3,700.
Rxclusi ve of the land sogregat
ed for the intermarried whites,
there is not enough land to give
all these allotments, and should
the white men finally get on the
rolls there will neither be enough
land nor sufficient funds to pay
the equivalent in money.
Therefore should the supreme
court finally decide in favor of
the intermarried whites, there
will be a condition that will re
quire a good deal of theorizing
to get around.
The law provides that those
who fail togetland shall receive
twice the appraised value of an
allotment rn money—about *040.
The enrollment closes August
26th.
There was anguish in Musko-
gee last week wl.en Mud Led bet
ter emptied a lot of whiskey on
the ground.
It is re| orled from I'ennbyl
vania I hat the anarchists are be
becoming active. This does not
mean, however, that they have
gone to work.
If it takes as much water as it
does printer's ink to float that
Kansas City l rge line, the Mis-
souri river will be unequal to
the requirements.
One authority says the word
"Oklahoma ' signifies "the land
of the fair dod," and another
says it means simply "lied pen
pie,"
Apparently the Uussian rev
olutionisls are proceeding on
the theory that if bomb throwing
brought the shadow of oonalitu-
tional government, more bomb-
throwing will bring tho sub-

It is now in order to organize
a dehorned alcohol trust The
bill permitting its manufacture
Tree has become a law.
As an evidence that Mr. Kryan
is a changed man, it is related
that he refused something which
was offered him in Turkey.
Prosecutor Stantield, of Vini-
ta. is having domestic trouble,
and some of the newspapers are
making it the subject of jeering
comment \Ve know nothing
about the matter, but it is a safe
guess lhat it is a very painful af
fair for Mr. Stanlield.
A story is current in Wash
ingtonthat the congressmen who
went back on statehood were
bought by appropriations for
public buildings in their dis
tricts. Plenty of stories are al-
ways current in Washington.and
it is well to wait and see before
giving credence to this one.
The humming sound you
hear from all |>arls of the Terri
tory is not caused by natural gas
escaping from new drilled wells,
its only the buz/.ing of political
bees toying witj' the embryo
statesmen awaiting the chance
to sacrifice themselves on their
country's allar at so mucli per
sacrifice.—Muskogee Phoenix.
By the way, the editorial meet
ing at Shawnee forgot to "reso-
loot" on the subject of a defen-
sive alliance against the | oliti-
cians. and as a consequence the
individual editors are left entire
ly unprotected against the
ravages of tho office seeker. Wo
move that the office seekers be
referred to the executive com
mitte, It's the business of the
executive committee to "exe-
cute." isnt it?
A California professor has ex
plained that the San FVancisco
earthquake was caused by a
crack along a mountain range,
whil a Kansas City man con-
tends that tho crack was
caused by the earthq uake.
It is strange that these learned
gentlemen will consume time
discussing this question while
that older scientific problem of
whether the dog wags the tail or
the tail wags the dog remains
unsettled.
Daily papers struggling for
existence in the Indian Territory
have to resort to various shifts
to keep up ap|>earances. For
instance, a daily in this vicinity
printed on May L'Hth, word for
word a dispatch sent from Clare-
more and printed in thoduthrie
Capital of May 22nd, but it was
given a Vinita date lino and dat
ed May 2Hth. In the same |>a-
per is a "dispatch" from Clare-
more dated May L'Hth, saying
that a consus was being taken
of the town, and lhat is true.
Hut the consus was completed
moro than two weeks ago, and
the fact recorded in the local {ta-
pers. There's nothing like get
ting the newshotfrom the grape
vioe.
Denatured alcohol will have an
ad vantage over some whiskey.
If a toper takes a notion to try
it as a beverage it will kill on the
spot instead of at forty rods.
Skiatook has reached the "cow
war" stage of city existence. All
towns go through it. When a
town is first started, cows roam
the streets at will. When the
town grows to sufficient sizo to
make the loose cow a nuisance
tho war starts, and wages with
moro or less tierceuess until the
cow is banished.
There is heap |>olitics in tho
Osage Nation, an election being
on for tho principal chief and as
sistant and members of thecoun
cil. Tho I'rogressive party has
nominated liacon Rind for chief
and Claremoru for assistant,
while the Conservatives have
nominated Ke Kah Wah Shin Ta-
Kah for chief. We dont know
anything ahout issues, but we're
for tho Progressive tickot on
tho theory that there's some-
thing in names. The name of
the party sounds good, the sec
ond name on the ticket spells the
best town in the Territory, and
Bacon Kind ought to be pretty
smooth himself.
It is a curious fact not often
referred to that the human race
has not reached a |ioint far
enough removed from the pri-
mal savage to naturally shrink
from giving pain. It is true that
most grown jterson ■ will not in
flict physical torture on a crea-
ture already maimed merely to
see it writhe, but that this is
due to education and has not yet
become a'natural instinct is prov-
en by the fact lhat children do
not revolt nt it Aud very few
grown |HJople are found who re-
frain from parallel cruelty in the
higher realm of mentality. A
man who would not think of
striking another with a club, will
take delight in the inHiction of a
keener hurt by cruel words.
!Not only this among equals,
which is not so bad. but the av
erago person of sound mind will
bait and badger tho weak mind
ed and demented, which is more
cruel than for a strong man to
maltreat a cripple. Some day,
perhaps.the human raco will be
come fuily civilized, and no |>er
son will wantonly inflict |>aiti of
any kiud u|Mtn another.

How to Break Up a Cold.
It may lie a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can lie com-
pletely broken up In one or two days'
time. The llrst, symptoms of a cold
are a dry, loud cough, a profuse, wa-
tery discharge from the nose, and a
thin, white coating on the tongue.
When Chamberlain's cough remedy is
taken every hour on the llrst appear-
ance of these symptoms, It counter-
acts t he effect, of t ho eold and re-
stores the system to a healthy eondl
t Ion within a day or two. For saleiby

Collinsville.
From the Times
The mammoth gas well brought in by
the Henry Oil and Gas Co. on the Allen
farm, three miles southeast of Collins-
ville, is defying all etTorts to be con-
trolled. At first tlioy tried lo cap the
well in the ordinary way by anchoring
from either side, but the pressure was
too grea'. and it tore the anchors up
and raised the casing Thay then put
in longer nnchors, which suei"eeded in
holding the casing down, but the gas
either bursteil the casing or found its
way through the shale at the bottom of
tho well and esenpes around the out-
side of the tubing at the top of the
ground with such force thai the roar of
it can be heard for nearly ten miles....
The Collinsville put die school board
met in regular session last night anil
ap|>ointed the teachers for the next
school year. Prof llieks was chosen
principal. Miss Mitchell was chwn liy
the town lioard and not the Indian
lionrd and will have charge of the sixth
and seventh grades and will assist with
some of the high school work. Miss
Rogers will have charge of the third
grade. MUs llines, a well rcconxiiiond
od teacher from bartlesville will have
charge of the |irimary department. Miss
Forrester, of Illinois is to lie recom
mended by the Collinsville hoard for
one of the government teachers. The
hoard feels that it has selected some
fine teachers and look forward to a
gixid school year. The salary of the
grade teachers was raised five dollars a
month. T. A. bee was chosen to fill
the place made vacant by Mr. Karmer,
who was elected on the city conoil....
Depuly Marshal George Williams found
a trunk full of Imkizc in a barn here last
Friday and destroyinl it. No one seemed
to know who the owner was and nu ar
rest was made.
