ON APRIL 22ND.

1t has come at last. The President
on the 9th issued his proclamation
declaring Oklahoma open to settle
ment, at and after twelve o'clock, noon,
April 22nd. The document is rather
long, reciting the provisions of the
acts under which title is gained to the
lands of the Creek and Seminole Ind
ians and indicating the manner in
which settlement is to be made. The
boundaries o. the Territory are defined
and correspond substantially with the
published maps. The proclamation
closes with warning that the provis-
ion of the law forbiddlng entry prior to
the time specified, and imposing a
penalty of forfeiture Of all privileges
for SO doing, will be strictly enforced.
Town sites are limited TO half section
in extent; and their entry is to be un-
der sections 1887 and 1889 of the revis-
ed statutes, which provide that the
land shall be entered for the benefit of
the occupants thereof. 1t effectually
blocks such attempts as are contem-
plated by dozens of companies, to
''gobble" the desirable sites and
make everybody else pay for the priv.
lege of coming in. AS we understand
it, lots will be sold under the direction
of the Secretary of the Interior, prob
ably at the rate of ten dollars each.
The commissioner of the general
land Office issued an order yesterday
establishing two land offices; that for

stage station called Kingfisher, some
twenty miles directly north of Fort
Reno. The Office for the eastern di-
vision to be at Guthrie, thirty miles
north of Oklahoma City.

POINTS FOB HoMEsTEADERs.

The following notes in regard to the
provisions of the law governing the
settlement of the Oklahoma lands,
may be of some value to those inter-
ested in the matter.
Under the homestead law, every
person who is the head of family, or
who has arrived at the age of twenty
one years, being citizen of the United
States, may enter one quarter section
of land, which shall be as nearly as
practica BILE in square form. The ap.
plicant must make affidavit before the
register of the land Office, first that he
is the head of family, or Is twenty
one years old, or has performed SER
vice in the army or navy of the United
States. That his application is made
for his own exclusive use and benefit,
for actual residence and cultivation,
aud that no other person is directly or
indirectly interested in the entry. An
entry fee of five dollars for so acr IS
and ten dollors for larger amount is
charged.
At the expiration of five years and
upon proof of actual residence and Gull
tivation, patents are issued for the
land.
In case of abandonment for the per-
iod of six months the land reverts to
the government.
Any soldier or sailor who served not
less than ninety days, is allowed to de-
duct from fine five years the time of
his service; and in addition il above d
six months after filing to enter the
land and make actual settlement.
Unmarried widows of soldiers and
sailors as above; ale allowed the same
advantages as would have been given
their husbands. The provisions of
section 2S0l of the homestead law are
not applicable to these lands. They
are to the effect that any person by
paying the minimum price, SIPS per
acre, may have patent before the ex-
piration of the five years; also that a
soldier must reside at least one year
on the land, no matter what his term
of service may have been.
Persons desiring to locate a town,
must first file plat with the register
aud receiver of the land Office and
must within thirty days forward q
verified copy TO the general land Office.
The entire proceedings including the
sale of lots is under the exclusive con-
troll of the Secretary of the Interior.

Notice.

1 wish to say to my patrons and the
public that have associated DR.. A. G.
Lucas with me in the lola Infirmary.
DR.. Lucas is ocular graduate in
medicine and comes to US highly rec
ommendod by the profession and the
press. where he has done business for
many years. We trust the public will
not be influenced by blind prejudice,
but will investigate for themselves the
merits of our Infirmary before going,
or advising others to go to other places
where the expense will be much more
and the treatment no better. A mean
and unjust insinuation is vile. sland-
er, and if you should hear such. please
investigate before repeating it yourself.
The many cases successfully treated
at the Infirmary in the past five years
ought to satisfy. the most incredulous,
