ABOUT THE B0OTus.

A number OF the newspapers os tue
territory, especially those hostile to
the administration, have taken pains
to crticisc the system of registering at
the booths, being particularly unjust
TO Governor Swincford. the inspector
general in charge No public event
was ever piveu more careful consider
alton than was the recent opening OF
the Cherokee strip. He came here a
Western man, experienced in the ways
of the West. learned of the frauds
committed i'm the previous openings of
this country 10 settlement, and turned
his attention to devising some means
py which frauds might be prevented
and the honest settler protected in his
rights.
The establishm Of registration
booths was the result Of these plans,
but in his recommendations to the de-
partnent Goverrr Swineford advised
that booths should be established not
less than ten days previous to the
opening, sufficient in number and with
a large enough force to care for 10, 600
applicants for certificates within the
ten days
In some way, probably through out
side reports, the department became
impressed with the belief that Gov
ernor swineford's estimate was en-
tirely too high ana made preparations
for much smaller number For this
reason the officers in charge of the
booths were unable to handle the ap-
plicants the first two days. but as soon
as the inspector could reach the booth
locations he caused sufficient mum

all who desired to register were ac-
commodated in time for the opening

DOWN WITH THE so0NER8.

Since the opening it has become APP
parent that in spite of strenuous ef-
forts OF the department the strip held
the usual quota OF "sooners" The
craze for land is so great that whoro il

any authority sufficient TO put stop
TO the depredations of the sooner
element, The extraordinary a@d un-
usual precautions taken by tho gov
ornment TO prevent unlawful settling
in the strip have made no ex- x-cption a.
the rule and have partly failed OF their
purpose.
But there is this difference Every

entered in violation OF hi, express

department in detecting those who
have taken an unfair advantage
Now let the department back mp its
intention Of preventing illegal hold

enough funds should bc placed at
