DEPOSITORS SAFE.
Peoples Home Savings
Bank Solvent.
BUSINESS TO BE RESUMED
Affairs Found in a Satisfactory Con.
dition on Examination by the
Bank Commits sionerS.

Depositors of the Peoples Home Savings
Bank will be glad to learn that the insti-
tuition has been found solvent. After
paying off all its indebtedness the bank
will have something like $4,000 TO its
credit.
That was the declaration made by Bank
Commissioners Dunsmoor and GerberdDg
Yesterday when they finished their report
on the banks condition at its suspension,
July T.
In examining the books of the Peoples
Home Bank they made discovery which
affected the Pacific Bank. The latter bank
acted as treasurer of tie savings institution,
and quite frequently the balances in favor
of the PEOPLES Home Bank were as high as
100000. Such was the condition of affairs
shortly before he final crash came. The
directors of the savings bank demanded
securities for this money and got them
Accom- panyng these securities is guar
antee from the Pacific Bank to make good
the balance between the sum realized Tor
the securities and the amount owing the
Peoples Home Savings Bank.
After Scrutinlzlng the securities turned
over TO the savings bank the Commits
sloners decided to reduce the estimated
value and in doing so necessarily increased
the Pacific Bank guarantee $4,000. This
change, it is claimed. will not very ma
terially impair the Pacific Banks pros
poets OF paying all demands in full.
"W hen the investigation into the condi-
ton of the Pacific Bank was made" said
Commissioner Gerberding yesterday, 1.-THE
existence of these guarantees was not
known, as they are of quite recent date.
Should they command their face value.
however, the Pacific will lose nothing on
them"

A CONVENTION CALLED.
An Interesting. Important Docu-
ment.
MUsKoGEE, 1. T., July 10, ,'93.
To THE PEOPLE OF THE INDIAN
TERRITORY:


MusKoGEE, 1. T., July 10, '93.
To THE PEOPLE OF THE INDIAN
TERRITORY:
During the past five years much
has been written for and against a
change Of affairs in this territory
Thoughtful, observing minds
among the people express a pres.
ent foresight Of the beginning OF
the end, and il is evident that the
time IS not far distant when some
considerable change will occur.
During the past two months il
has been repeatedly suggested that
call for a mass convention OF
these people should be issued from
this agency, and upon this propo.
sition my mail has grown to con
siderable proportions. IL is not,
however, any part Of the defined
duties Of this agency 10 call the
people together for this or any
other purpose, hence these lines
are issued upon my individual re-
sponsibility.
IL is not my intention TO hereby
call a convention, but simply to
present 10 you a few briei state
ments concerning affairs in this
territory, which in my judgment
are sufficient reasons for bringing
these people together for an inter-
change Of thought upon the most

and the government; in many in
stances nation must be liberal,
but never wasteful." "
Tenth plank: "The sale of the
lead of the Cherokee nation west
OF 90, known as the Outlet, being
one of great Importance, the Down.
ing party will favor its sale to the
United States at fair valuation
and pledges itself to obtain the
greatest amount possible therefor,
and the party will also favor the
per capita distribution of the en-.
tire proceeds of said sale among
the whole Cherokee people, and
in every event the party will OPP
pose the payment Of any sum or
sums of money of said proceeds Of
the Outlet to any attorney or other
persons as compensation for SER
vices claimed to have been rem
dered in consummating such sale. "
And to-day you men who helped
to elect Joel B. Mayes nave never
complied with the platform, and
now have it under your feet tramp
ling it out of existence. You are
carrying a flag of truce and upon
this flag is "Sense, Bell & Davis, ;"
pleading to the people that we
must elect men of some sense.
This is a good recommendation of
the Downing party, that it has no
men of any sense. Time will
change things. Two years ago the
Downings had all the smart men,
and some as smart as ever came
from the state of Arkansaw-Bill II
Davis and w. w. Hasting-but
the Downing party must set them
aside and take Hoolie Bell because
he has some sense. d

Powhatan and Pooahontas.

WASHINGTON, d. e., July 16.
The fact developed in the past
few days that Terrell Bradley, of
the Pamunkey tribe of Indians in
Virginia, whose visit to the Indian
Bureau was detailed in these dis
patches last week, has another OBJ
ject than seeng the Worlds fair in
going west, though he did not tell
Gen. Armstrong anything about it.
From Chicago he proposes to make
his way to the Indian Territory.
When he arrives there he will call
on the five civilized tribes and pro-
pose to them a somewhat novel
scheme. The plan is to induce a
limited number Of young and
strong full-blood Indians of good
character to settle on the Pamun-
key reservation in Virginia and
marry Pamunkey maidens. The
tribe has been reduced to 140 souls,
and is in danger of becoming ex-
tinct. For centuries the members
have intermarried without any ma.
erial additions from without, ow-
Jug to the rapid disappearance of
tLe Indians in the East, and their
iso htion among the whites. The
wise men OF the tribe foresee the
rapid extinction Of the last of the
tribe OF Powhatan unless a radical
course Of freplenishment is resorted
90. They have deliberated on the
problem, and Bradley is sent west
on the momentous mission of in.
ducing immigration Of young un-
married men from the sturdy races
in the Territory. They will receive
a homestead Oil the reservation,
and be given every inducement to
cast their lot with the tribesmen
of Pow hatan and Pocahontas.

Who Are Downings2
NINITA. |. T. July I.

NISITA, |. T., July 7 1913.
EDITOR CHIEFTAIN:-Please al
low me space in the columns of
your paper to show the Downing
party one grand mistake they have
made, and that is by nominating
men who are not true blue to the
Downing party.
Two years ago to-day Joel b.
Mayes was running for principal
chief Of the Cherokee nation on the
Downing ticket, while Hoolie
Bell and the rest of the Downing
party, so.called Bell faction, were
strong supporters of d. w. Bushy-
head and George Benge, and Bell
worked every means that he knew
how to defeat Mayes in his elec-
ton. And to day | am astonished
at Bill Dawes for the grounds he
has taken now to elect Bell. Two
years ago Hoolie Bell and his fac
ton worked every means to defeat
Joel b. Mayes, Bill Davis, Tom
Burlington, Claude Washbourne
and every other man that ran on
the Downing ticket with Joel B.
Mayes. To-day Bill Davis and
what few men that will follow him
are strong supporters of Hoolie
Bell and his rotten faction.
Two years ago Hoolie Bell and
his party pleaded to the people
that whenever you elected Mayes
he (Mayes) and the cattlemen
would stock our country with Texas
cattle; and to-day the same cattle
men who fought Bell, Benge and
Bushyhead are now working for
Bell and pleading TO the people
that we must elect men to our
Council who have got some sense,
and Bell has the sense Of Delaware
district.
am further astOnished at the
Downing party. thought that
two years ago we elected men who
had some sense--say Burlington
Davis end Washbourne. But il
two years as members OF the ma
tional council caused you to lose
your presence of mind / am willing
to say that you all ought TO be
placed in the insane asylum until
you regain your senses.
The Downing party Of Delaware
district elected Bill Davis, Claude
Washbourne and Tom Burlington
to the senate and council of the
Cherokee nation and we elected
you all by large majorities, and to
work for the interests of the Cher.
okee people and to better Their
condition as a nation OF people that
you were the choice OF in Delaware
district at the time of your elec
tion. And to day you have Joined
your forces with Hoolie Bell to
condemn the whole Downing party
and it's platform. | will cite you
gentlemen 10 the Downing plat
form, that you we're elected upon,
the sixth plank of which reads in
these words:
"Public funds; the party fayors

public affairs, to the end that pub
lie funds may not be squandered
but used as necessity may demand

THE mightiest oracle of human
ingenuity is the ballot box. 1t is
the final arbiter between contend
ing political hosts, and upon its
purity depends the stability of gov
ernment. This being so, no citi-
zen can afford to be careless or in
different with his vote. 1t is a
proposition that cannot be denied
that if every man who is entitled
to vote in the Cherokee nation
would vote his honest sentiments,
we would have a splendid govern
ment.

EDITOR CHIETTAIN:-I see an ar

ticket for council. / am a Down
ing man, but | won't vote for any
man who is running for any office
that favors allotment, and while l

than five or ten years to get ready

SAM SMITH, who was elected

certain equity and legal rights ex-
ist, and individuals ought to be re-
ceived aud acknowledged as full
citizens, but il is also true that very
many of the cases have no shadow
of proof nor right. The Indian ma
tions are powerless to act in these
matters under present laws and
regulations, and the Interior de-
partment has always failed and re.
fused to determine these vexatious
questions, so that we have in the
matter of these claimants, "confu.
sion worse confounded." Interior
department supervision, whether
under Democratic or Republican
control, is arbitrary, unreasonable
and unjust.
The scheme of isolation for the
Indians of the five tribes, as was
concocted in the early part of this
century. has long been a delusion.
The progress of the Indians and
the commercial interests are such
that non.intercourse with the
whites is an utter impossibility.
II is useless TO say now that this
ought not to be, for it is not posi-.
BILE, even if advisable, to bring
back the conditions of those for
mer years.
BY the aid of the white man and
his money and energy a few of the
Indian people have been able to
enrich themselves, and have ac-
quired large herds of cattle, are
cultivating thousands of acres Of
land, and enjoying handsome in
comes from timber and mining in
terests. But the g;eat majority of
the people have neitLer the push
nor the opportunity = thus ad-
vance their individual properties.
This is not in any degree dis
credit to any individual that he
has taken advantage Of the oppor-
tunities afforded him by the pecu-
liar systems of the country and is
using large portions of the common
soil to his own benefit. Present
laws and customs favor the aggres-
sive citizen with his immense mon
led interests, but they also con-
tribute to keep his more timorous
friend and neighbor down to an
acre or so for a "Tom Fuller" aud
the privilege Of bearing a large
portion of the national burden.
The average Indian has few
wants and these are simple and
easily satisfied. The idea of any
surrender oftribal authority or ira
ditional custom is to the Indian
grievous and abhoEent, yet it is
evident that from one or another
cause his interests in lands, moneys
and his tribal power have been
gradually absorbed. and are daily
growing less. 1t seems proper
therefore to inquire into the causes
which are operating to bring about
this result and to prepare to meet
that inevitable which all must see
is coming.
As stated before, this circular is
issued upon my individual respon-
sibility and is in no sense a call
for a convention other than the
suggestion OF one deeply interested
in the future, who for the reasons
stated, advises the people to meet
and counsel together upon this
matter of greatest moment.
suggest therefore that n mass
convention be held at Muskogee
beginning the first Tuesday in Oc-
tober next, and in the meantime
that all neighborhoods have local
conventions and send some able,
fearless and loyal citizer to the
mass convention to consider what
is for the best interest of the whole
people. Very respectfully,
LEO. +. BENNETT.

a pRopHnr on nAAr.

The two old political parties in
the upper districts are in a great
strait. They joined forces at Chel-
sea Tuesday in desperate though
vain endeavor to overthrow a
peaceable and conservative meet
ing Of independent citizens, end to
blast ,he resolutions that reflected
on the old parties. A recent grad
uate of "Keeley" was enlisted to
lead the attack and went down
from vinita with all the pomp and
circumstance of superintendent
of a cockpit or a dog-fight. Great
preparation had been made, tobac-
co juice and profanity had been
spewed over the sidewalks and ho-
tel corridors for days and days.
Finally the day came, the red
blanket was flung out to be kissed
by the gentle zephyrs, the breech
clout laughed a great horse laugh,
and the widest Indian that ever
scalped a quivering paleface would
have been put to shame. Chelsea
was reached, the reformer began to
reform, the "manuscript" began
to uncurl itself, the earth trem-
bled, the lion roared (the long-ear.
ed one) men we're denounced for
having independent views at all.
The whole English language seem.
ed to have been ransacked to find
epithets and adjectives vile enough
to describe a man who would ven
ture outside either of the old par
ty lines. But the fire, and the wind
and the profanity passed by. The
meeting went on and the resolu-
tions stood. And this morning the
sun shines forth from the same
blue sky, the long line Of "heavy"
clouds has melted away, the song
bird breaks the eternal stiffness of
the heavens with his notes Of glad.
ness, and the small boy stalks
forth at eventide to thump for the
Tooth time the unripe watermelon
in his neighbours patch. Such is
life, and glory, and honor and pol
itics in this"wild and woolly west. 4"
