Torn out to the school meeting
in the K. of P. Hall thiseveniug ut
« o'clock.
Evervonc should he interested in
the erection of a school buildini
and there are none hut who shoul
contribute their share.
The greatest hitch that our
authorities seeui to have on treat
ing with the Dawes Commission it
the intruder question.
The "Tahlequah Telephone'
which waif recently burned oul
comes to us this week brighter than
erer. We wish it success.
The Dawes Commission ore ven
sanguine of treating with tlx
Choctaw* and Chickasaw* befur<
Congress meets in December.
Who will be the candidate* foi
Chief is now agitating the minilf
of the politician*. and that i« ti
large per cent of the Cheroket
people.
Many of our citizen* are not s<
positive now that thel'nited State*
will not allot this country if they
do not treat with the Daw A
Commission, since talking witl;
them.
Can you give an honest an>
reasonable excuse why you should
not give something toward* i
school building? If so, let's hem
from you this evening in the K. ol
I*. Hall at 2 o'clock.
The appropriation to completi
the work of the Intruder Commiss-
ion is expected to pass Congress it>
a few days and work will be resum-
ed in a short time. The Commiss-
ion will commence operations at
Claremore.
The proposed amendment to U
8. Constitution to elect U. S. Sen-
ator* by a direct vote lias passe,
the Houaf of Kepresentatives b\
the necessary two-third* majority
with thirteen votes to *pare. Hut
it will be a long time liefore it
passes the Henate. They know
good thing too well when they se<
it.
The senate committee on appro-
priations-has elttually agreed tc
allow the houaeamendmeiit* to th<
general appropriation bill, allowing
the absentee Shawnee Indians t«
allot their land*, aud the settlers in
the Cheroke Outlet prove tip their
claims within fourteen months, tn
remain in the*bill. These amend-
ments were at first stricken out.
but the Committee has reconsidered
Congressman Morgan of Mis-
souri: "There is no escape for
the fire civilized tribes from assimi-
lating with the people of thi
United States. If the assimilation
comes by their consent and by a
plan which they themselves assist
formulating it were better for
the*; but with or without their
consent it will take place, and at
no distant dav. My advice to the
Choctaws and Cliickiuaws is to get
ready for it, and deprive its cul-
mination of as much of its harsh-
ness aa possible.''
Clifford W. If olden ii finding
that an Oklahoma divorce is not
such a soft thing after all. Last
fall he secured a divorce from his
wife iu the probate court and at
once married Melliaaa Leper. Wife
N'o 1 earned the matter to the
district court where the divorce
has just been annulled. Holden is
thus left with two wives on his
hands, and the first one has just
had him arrested for bigamy and
the second brought suit for a
divorce. "Purcell Topic.''
Utah became the forty-fifth
state in the American Union
Monday week. Her population is
2 50,1 WO and the proportion of
foreign born citiaens is less than
in thirteen other stated. Upward
of 15,000,000 acre* of land is
granted in the bill by the Federal
government for state educational
-slid lienevolent institutions. Utah
is better qualified for statehood
than any state admitted since the
republican party came into and
went out of power. The new state
is democratic by a good majority.
Monday forty-six miners left
Coalgate for the north, hunting a
job; Tuesday forty-seven left on a
similar mission, and by the time
rhc week closes a good many more
will be added to the list. The
Indian Agent's prospective visit

The peculiar conditions under
which we are placed in the matter
of erecting a school house in keep-
ing with the site and growth of
our city, should not deter us from
pushing the matter forward. The
only true, just and equitable plan of
erecting a public school buildin,
is denied us. namely by taxation
Ail should bear equally alike,
according to hi* means,the burdens
of erecting such a building. It's
erection should not be left to the
few, when il is for the 1<enefit of
•11. As we cannot raise the neces-
sary fund* by taxation, L"teach one
coiiie forward aud subscribe
cording to his means.
Because you cannot give $50 or
$100 is uo reason why you should
■lot give a smaller amount No
man can give an honest reason
why he should not give something.
Many of our citizens are disposed
to give liberally, which speak* well
for their public spirit, but there is
no just reason why they should
sive all. Turn out to the meeting
this evening at 2 o'clock prepared
to give according to your means.
Don't wait for a iwumittee to call
oitrou, your duty to your town
and the coming generation should
not allow jrou to place this not
overly pleasant task on anyone.

Hon. Green McCurtain about
whom so much has been said as t<

position: I am not entirely oppos-
ed to allotment, and yet am not
in favor of its being done altogether
by the United States. 1 am in

so that the ludiaif* interest shouh
be well protected. I sav furthei
that the people do not understand

is mentioned they at once run t<

cannot violate its solemn promise

An importaut piece of Indian
legislation, permitting the Indian:
who hold land* allotted to them
in severalty to lease their lands,
passed the House Saturday. It
was proposed by Heprcseuative
Pickler. of South Dakota, as an
intendment to the bill, to ratify
(he treaty with the Yuma Indian;
>f California, and few members
ippreciated it's importance.
Under existing laws Indians
jn reservations may lease their
lands, but uo authority for leases
given to Indians holding
{round in severally by allotment*.
Many Indians In Dakota. Mr.
Prick ler says, hold lands which are
useless to tliem because they have
not the farming implements neces-
sary for cultivation, and the satnt
•ondition is imposed upon Indians
in other sections of the west.
While the complaints fnm
Dakota Indians led Mr. I'rickler to
ntroduce the measure, it applies
to the whole country. The length
of leases which may be made is
limited to five years, and they must
be ratified by the Secretary of the
Interior.

To Settle an Old Controversy.
Washington, D. C. Julv 25. -
When Kepresenative McRae of
Arkansas yesterday, following the
example of Chariman Culberson
of the Judiciary Committee, took
advantage of the absence of a
number of members from the floor
>f the House to pass several im-
portant bills from the Committee
on Public Lands, he passed one
bill of special interest to Arkansas.
That is a !>iii providing for the
appoi.itment of a eotumi*>:jon con-
sisting of the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Secretary of In-
terior. or three men to be appoint-
ed by them, to settle the old con-
troversy over the Smithsonian and
Indian trust bonds issued by the
State of Arkansas.
This controversy has been going
on for 40 year*. There is due thi
government on the bonds prlncipa
amounting to $725,OtVO, which with
interest and various penalty charg-
es makes a total of $2,500,000.
The State claims that the govern-
ment in other ways owes it equal
■is much and that the claim of the
Government is more than over
weighted by the counter claims of
the State. This commission is to
investigate Jyoth sides of the
question and make rpport to
Congress providing some plaa of
