POOR LO!!
works the Sympathy Racket and
Rabbit Foot Raszle-DazslS
en- Congress.

At a recent sitting of the house
committee on territories to consider
the pending statehood bills for Okla
homa, which takes in about four
fifthS Of the ChickaSaw Nation, Mr..
James Humphrey, of Purcell. made
something of stir when he-annOunc-
ed that Judge Young, of the Chero-
kee country. who appeared before the
committee with an interpreter, could
speak good English. Mr.. Humphrey
stated that he had met the judge in
the Grand Lodge of MasOns in the
Indian Territory, and had heard him
make speeches in the lodge meetings:
that he was COED talker and fluent
speaker there, and out of the lodge
he had also heard him speak quite
often. He could not understand how
it was that when he came to Wash
ingtOn on Indian matters that he
was compelled TO resort to an inter
prefer. The only excuse for it accord
ing to Mr.. Humphrey, was fOund in
the fact that it had been concluded
by Chief Harris, of the Cherokee Ma
tiOu, that it would be well TO give
some sort of a performance OF that
kind for poor Lo' effect on the
committee.
This statement on the part Of Mr.
Humphrey created some astOnish-
ment among the members of the com
mittee who had not suspected that
the man who talked to them in the
Cherokee language could have posi-
bly, talked better in pure English
Some of the members could not be
l.eve that it was possible that the
leading Indians would resort to that
sort Of plan, and it was suggested
Judge Young be sent for again, anC
asked il he could speak in English
About this time others present stated
they had talked with Judge Young ir
the hotel lobby, and he conversed il
English very we'll. They insisted
that there could be no mistake abOu
1t, when again a member Of the com
mittee suggested that they woul'
like to have him come back and maxi
his statement in language that haC
not passed through an interpreter.
ARGUMENT FOR STATEHOOD.
Mr.. Humphrey, after impresSin
upon the committee the fact that tn
Indian delegation had been trying Z
