The idea of irrigation for Okla
homa is becoming quite popular.
There are a few portion of the
territory thatnaturally are almost
untillable owing to the lack OF
moisture at the proper time for
crops. The theory of irrigation
furnishes an easy solution for the
problem of cultivating the soil in
these arid regions as we'll as as
sisting in the raising of crops in
the regions where the rainfall is
not equal to the needs. The old
idea that irrigation does not
speak well for country is going
out of date for on the contrary it
speaks much for the enterprise of
the people. oklahoma Star.

he made an error in his interpre-
tation of the law, he was frank
to confess it and change his rul-
ing.
The work he has had to do has
been great, the responsibility
enormous. Faithfully, however,
has he done his work. The path
he has blazed will make it easier
for his successor.
We regret he leaves our divis-
ion, but console ourselves with
the fact that he does not leave
the territory.
In the no distant future, when
changes come in this country, as
come they must, the record of
Judge Stuart for mental ability,
integrity and manliness will be
remembered by the people when
they seek for some one to guide
and assist them.

home and new position, the

deserves.

Under the law the judges of
the territory courts are required
to reside in their respective dis
tricts. OF course it is very nat
urallv expected that Judge Kill
gore will select AFdmore as his
home, but as an evidence of
desire that he should do so and to
make it doubly sure that he will,
our people must lose no time in
taking appropriate action making
their desire to have him as an
Ardmore resident known in as
forcible a manner as possible.
The first thing in order should be
to prepare for giving him a warm
reception when he comes and
thus demonstrate to him that he
is welcomed both as Judge of our
court and as a citizen of the
Chickasaw Nation. The people
of ArdmOre know how to do these
things and we believe on this oc-
casion they will not be lacking in
bountiful display of hospitality.

OUR RETIRING JUDGE.

Most of our readers are famil-
lar with the fact that under the
new court bill our present judge,
Hon. Chas. B. Stuart is trans
ferred to the Central Judicial Di-
vision; although he will in one
sense continue as our judge, be-
ing now Chief Justice of the
court of appeals for the Indian
Territory, yet as presiding judge
of our division, his work is prac-
ticalIy ended. A brief resume
of his work might not at this
time be inappropriate.
During the time Judge Stuart
has been presiding judge, many
changes have occurred. The
country has been rapidly filling
with settlers, new industries
started, manufacturing enter
prises have multiplied, mines
opened and increased wealth ad-
ded to the territory.
All of these matters have been
important factors in adding to
litigation, new conditions have
arisen not contemplated when the
court was established, and for
which no provision was made.
1t therefore devolved upon the
presiding judge, in order that
justice might be done, and that
wrong and injustice should not
trample truth under their feet,
to depart in some instances from
the technical rules of law and
blaze a new path. Had it not
have been so, in many instances
our we'll known principle of
equality of all men under the law
would have been but empty
words.
We remember one instance in
Particular when in prosecuting
parties for maintaining a nui-
sance, the point was raised that
no provision was made in our
court bill for such prosecutions.
Judge Stuart promptly ruled
"The contention of attorneys
may be correct, and l may err in
my rulings, but l prefer to err
on the side of the protection of
our homes, rather than the re-
verse.
Judge Stuart s aim as presid-
ing judge has seemed to be to
protect the people of this country
in their homes from crime and
lawlessness and to aid litigants
in obtaining justice. Many law
yers have complained that he
would frequently take cases into
his own hands, and away from
the attorneys, but it was never
done excepting when apparently
wrong was triumphing over right. |
We know of no instance
OF any case coming before him
where injustice, aided by
wealth and power has ever
triumphed over truth and right. !
The sharp insight which Judge
stuart seems to have IN human
nature and the work of his keen
analytical mind would soon cut
through the sophistries of wrong
and truth would shine forth. II

GUARANTY LOAN SOLD,
american Exchange National
Bank Getg If


Bank Gets 1t.
The pride and boast of. Minneapolis.
the famous Guaranty Loan building,
has been sold. Yesterday representa-
tives of the American Exchange Bank
of New York and the Minnesota Trust
company appeared before Judge Rus
sell and submitted a proposition for
the purchase of the building for S75, 600
cash, subject to first mortgage of
$60O,OG0, the purchasers to relinquish a
claim Of 100000 which they now hold,
thus making the purchase price 81, O75.-
! co.,
The proposition was submitted by
w. E. Hale, attorney for the Mime
| apolis Trust company, and Judge NJ.
b. Koon representing the bank.
BY the terms of the sale creditors
are given forty-five days in which to
subscribe such portions of the SIS, 900
as they may desire to assume, and
sixty days in which to settle for the
| same. A settlement is to be made at
the expiration of two years, when if
the creditors desire, they may become
owners of the building by paying the
100000 claim and whatever portion of
the $4,000 is not subscribed by them at
that time.
The Minneapolis Trust company, as
receiver, made the following statement
to the court:
That at the time of the appointment
OF the petitioner as receiver there were
among the assets of the said company
13,44o shares of stock issued by the
Guaranty company. The whole amount
OF stock issued by the said company
was 14,0O0 shares of the par value of
500 each. About May 8, 1893, W. S.
Streeter, vice president of the COM
pany, borrowed of the Industrial Trust
Company of Providence, for the benefit
OF the Guaranty company, 100000 for
sixty days with interest at per cent,
and pretending to represent the COM
pany of which he was vice president,
delivered to the Industrial company
for the payment OF the sum borrowed
, Is, 40 shares of stock. About Nav IL
! the Industrial Trust company paid
! $10,766 to Louis F. Menage, president.
! OF the Loan company, for the purpose
of paying taxes upon the building.
Then followed a detailed statement
! of the sale Of promissory notes by the
| Guaranty company to the Industrial
| company, amounting to S49,905.17. No
| part of any of the sums mentioned
above has yet been paid. And further,
| there was no agreement that the stock
! OF the Guaranty company was pledged
/ for more than the money borrowed.
The manner in which the American
Exchange National bank became in
volved - in effect that on May 10,
1893, and thereafter the Guaranty Loan
company had large amount of COM
mercial paper coming due at that insti-
tution-iS then recited.
At that time Louis F. Menage, in an
attempt to tide the concern over it's
difficulties, wired the bank that if it
would pay and protect the paper he
would pledge the company's stock as
collateral security for the money thus
| expended. The bank complied with
the arrangement to the tune of $780,
OO7.S7
x The proposition met with no opposi-
ton from the creditors yesterday, and
Judge Russell allowed its acceptance
on the part of the receiver for the cred
| itors.

The hold-up epidemic got in it's
work last night on another grocery
store. Last night while Erick Erick-

nue., was preparing to close the store
for the night, five men rushed into
the store, and four covered him with
their revolvers, while the fifth went
through Erickson's person and rifled
him Of his gold watch and $40 in
cash, just taken from the cash
drawer. AS soon as the men had
left, Erickson notified the East side
police station, but no trace could be
found of the men.
The way the men went at their
work seemed to indicate that they
were novices in the business, as they
had made no attempt to disguise
their faces, all being smooth shaver.
Erickson was so frightened that he
was unable to give any description
of the men
