suggesting that the Republican cam

The county commissioners OF Paw.
nee, formerly Q county, yesterday
made formal application in the dis
trict court for the issue of bonds, re-
funding the outstanding county war
rants. Certain parties objected to the
funding of warrants issued during the
first nine months of the countys or
ganization. After hearing both sides
of the case Judge Bierer rendered a
most emphatic de cision holding ali
warrants issued according to the laws
of Oklahoma territory md which were
not in excess of four per cent OF the
assessed valuation of the county, valid
and binding against the county.
The application OF the commission
ers was granted and bonds issued TO
the extent of IS. 500.
Tnis is the first decision rendered by
court in the original Cherokee strip
wherein this much discussed question
has been formally decided, aud ali
holders of these county and other
municipal warrants Will he greatly re
lieved 10 know that the courts of the
territory are not disposed to render
any assistance to those intensely tech
nical individuals who have been strlv-
ing to discredit these securities.
Judge Bierer prefaced his decision
with some lengthy pertinent and
timely remarks relative to the incon-
sisteneies and absolutely impossible
constructions which had been placed
by some upon the act of congress- OF
1856, restricting the contraction OF in
debtedness by municipalities in terri
tories as applied 10 counties in the
Cherokee strip, defining the intention
OF congress in opening the strip to set
tlement.
