The action of Council in rejecting
the report of the Water Works Trus-
tees on account Of them handing in
| bills for $100a year when they should re-
ceive but $50, seems to have stirred
that body up considerably. They say
they will make fight against Council
if ii attempts to reduce the salary. 1t
seems they were getting 800 a year
until 1892. when the Council of that
year, through an ordinance, reduced it
to $50. The Trustees, however, have
been getting 500, as they claim there
was a flaw in the ordinance which would
make it void.

OKLAIIO0Ia.

Delegate Flynn. Of Oklahoma. fully
believes in the territorial West, a sec
ton Of which he represents i'm Congress.
In his opinion the "sruggle-for-l.tar"
who is not oyernice about the means Of
success could not do better than so TO
the Indian territory and take one Of it,
dusky maidens for a wife. According
10 Mr.. Flynn. Indian Territory contains
about $4,000 Indians and 100000 whites,
the white population being now cons.d-
erably greater than was the whole popu-
laton in the census Of 1890. Three
fourths Of the Territory is under the
sway of about a hundred men who call
themselves Indians, but who have very
little Indian blood I'm their veins. These
pa.r.a7chs are the most violent CT the
opponents Of any political or social
change. They are in favor neither Of
the annexation Of the Territory 20 Ok
lahoma nor Of the partition of the lands
among the Indians i'm several.ty. I'm
der their influence the Council Of the
ChOctaw Nation recently passed de-
cree denouncing as guilty Of high trea-
son and worthy of death any one who
should advocate such partition Of their
lands
AS an example of the social conditions
i'm the Territory. a New York adventurer
married a Choc,aw. settled down and is
now the happy parent of five children.
Should the Choctaw lands be divided IN
sevaral,y he and his family would re-
ceive about $500 acres quite landed
estate IN this region Of country. But
as long as the lands shall be held IN com
mon he Will have the enjoyment and
control Of about so square miles Of coal
territory. He is. besides, treasurer Of
the Sem.n0les. who receive an annuity
of $4,000 from the Government Ia
stead of paying the Seminoles i'm cash.
he gives them an order en- his store for
goods. His is the only store within the
l.mits Of the tribe. and me permits no
competition to disturb his monopoly.
There are. according to Delegate
FLYNN. men in the territory who are
nearly white: but they call themselves
Indians. and lord it over domains Of a
hundred square miles i'm extent which
they lease 20 white grazsrs Of c3tla.
One Of these men has not less than 200
tenants. Landlords and tenants are
alike hostile 10 any change; for almost
any change would .njuri'u7,y affect their
interests. But this condition Of things
cannot last much longer. The white DO
pulation IS steadily increasing. I'm spite
Of restrictions. and the p3u.archal sys-
tenn 20 which The Indians are subjected
must give way TO superior numbers ana

tion Of the Indian Territory, Oklahoma
