The Most Dacflepods Spo^e
The most pernicious legacy
that a father can leavs to his
son is large wealth unaccom-
panied by training in the lin
of usefulness. It is grand, as
has been said, to have the
strength ef a giant. So it is
grand to be the possessor of
large wealth, but ignoble to
use it in a life of idleness and
dissipation. The average
young man of tfee present day
is tlie most dangerous spoke in
the social wheel. With no
useful occupation to exercise
his mind, the bast side of life
lures him from the path of rec
titude. By regular stages he
passes from the level of a
drone and a profligate to that
of a dissolute and perverted
creature, a discredit to his
family, an incumbrance in the
busy world and ultimately a
nuisance t© himself.—Los An-
geles Herald.

fof Statehood this
Wintar.
Tams Baxby, who has been
in Washington on business
with the interier department
relative to matters incident to
the winding up of the affairs
of the five civilized tribes com-
mission, returnd Tuesday to
the territory. Before leaving
the capital city he expreised
himself as being satisfied with
the success of his visit and the
condition of affairs in the Indi-
an Territory. He had
idea how long it would take to
eomplete the work, but said he
was satisfied that when once
finished it would be to the
satisfaction of everybody.
Speaking ea the subject o f
statehood and his course i n
the event of admission of Indi-
an 1 erritery as one state at the
next congress. Onee admitted
there will be a great scramble
for offices. 1 would not be
surprised to see fifteen aspi-
rants for senatorial honors
from Indian Territory. A s far
as I am concerned in this mat-
ter, 1 have not yet decided
what I will do. I am not a
citizen of Indian Territory, nor
do I pretend to be one. I am
a pocr man, I think this de-
scribes my position clearly as
far as tke senatorship fight i s
concerned.
Wifco Gets the Land ?
To whom does the land of
a deceased Indian minor de-
scend? And how, if at all,
can it be alienated ? This is
a question that is receiving
considerable attention at the
hands of the Muskogee court
and members of the bar. It
is a very much mooted and
also an important question.
I here are three separate and
distinct periods affected by
this question : Indians who
died prior to May 25, 1901 :
those who died between May
25, 1901, and August 8, 1902;
and those who have died since
the latter date. Different
laws seem to have been in
force during each of these
periods, and upon the right
solution of this question will
turn the inheritance of thous-
ands of dollars worth of land.
Some attorneys contend that
it is not an estate of inherit-
ance, but merely a right tc an
additional allotment of land,
while it is the opinion of some
that the title passes when the
deed was delivered and that it
is a mere gift from the govern-
ment.
