APPLIES ONLY WHERE THERE ARE
40 CONTESTS

THE LEADERS brief reference Sun
day to the measure which has passed
the council and which provides for the
vacating of townsites in cases where
the lands covered thereby are held by
homestead entrymen, caused the even
ing paper to fall into and follow The
LEADER's error. The bill referred TO
and printed in the Capital last evening
IS not the one which passed the coun-
Gil Senator ESnch's measure will not
have the effect many imagiDed-es-
pecially those of East Guthrie. The
measure now pending in the house is
intended for the relief o. those per-
sons who have made homestead entry
upon lands in the territory, and whose
quarter sections, by the ill-advised
zeal Of our ambitious towns, has been
converted from farming lands into
parts of city, whose boom died
a borning.
The bill was introduced by Council
man Lyuch, and was inspired by the
palpable injustice it perpetrated under
his own eye.
In Mr.. LYnch's town, Ponca City,
some quarter sections were plated
into streets and blocks and inconti-
nently converted into part Of the
city, when they not only lacked
lights, sewers and waterworks, but
even that very essential constituent
Of town-inhabitants The only in
habitant being the unimportAut entry
man, who was not allowed to ploN up
and plant the streets in crops and who
could not very well cultivate the
blocks in patches
An important provision in the bill
prevents it from applying to home
stead entries where a contest is pend.
ing at the time when the bill becomes
an act OF the general assembly.
This will amply protect those citi-
zens that have in good faith settled
upon additions made to the various
cities in the territory and have i'm.
proved them under the belief that
they would have some protection OF
law, even II they should fail to sustain
their contest for the title TO the land.

pANeERoUs FoR OKLAHoMA

There is now in the conference com.
mittee Of the house an amendment to
the sundry civil appropriation bill,
which is Of the deepest import to the
people OF oklahoma and one which
calls for speedy action on the part OF
the terrtorY's representatives. The
amendment in question calls for a
change in the boundary line Of okla
homa and attaches 10000 squares miles
Of our territory TO the Indian Terri
tory. An associated press report says
"Mr sherman (Rep, n. ~, chair
man of the committee on Indian affairs
moved that the house non-concur In
the senate amendments to the indian
appropriation bill and agree TO con.
ference.
"Mr Flynn, delegate from Okla.
homa, made the point that the senate
amendment must be considered in com
mittee Of the whole His point was
directed against she amendment which
changed the territorial boundary line
of oklahoma and attached 10000
square miles, now part of that terri
tory, to the Indian territory.
"Mr sherman circumvented the
point Of order by moving a suspenion
of the rules. The motion was car.
ried and the bill was sent to the con-
ference"
According TO measurement the pas
sage OF this amendment would chop off
from Eastern oklahoma the Usage
country, Lincoln, Pottawotamie, Noble
and tier of townships Of Logan
county.
The dire effect OF such legislation
can be readily seen.
There is hardly a doubt that the
Dawes commission is behind this
scheme, It's passage meaning thousands
OF dollars in CRAFTS to the members OF
the commission.
The Legislature very properly took
speedy action in the premises yester-
day, aud its joint resolution was sup
plemented with many strong telegram.
II may be that Mr., Flynn has the
scheme coppered, but still it would be
well for the citizens Of the territory
TO Immediately FIRE in kilograms to
the conference committee and senate,
protesting vigorously against the
amendment

tion OF the youth Of our territory
should receive the hearty commenda-
tion and support of every pCtriotic
citizen in the community, particularly
where such substantial aid and assist
ance is secured without adding to the
burden Of direct taxation for that pur-
pose. II will doubtless be a welcome

now being paid. Many instancet
might be cited and details given dem
the fact that no legislature
has yet been successful II making an
actual saving to the people in the price
OF school books, and where there has
been an apparent saving It has been at
a great cost in the quality Of the books
offered under the contract, and the alb.
solute confiscation OF the immense
Investment in the book already
in the hands OF the people.
The price Of school books must
be regulated by the cost Of pro
curing manuscripts, editing and pub
fishing, and by competition. The city
OF New York is perhaps the largest
market for school books in the conn
try. Publishers are accustomed TO
offer their books their at the very low.
est prices at which they can be sold
anywhere in the country. The
prices fixed by such market
at New York and other leading edu-
cational centers must necessarily fix
the prices at which the books may
be offered in other communities. No
house can afford, for instance, to offer
It's books to Oklahoma at the prices
which they are not willing to supply
them to other communities. 1t is
therefore safe to say that should any
measure be enacted by the Oklahoma
legislature requiring that school books
shall be sold at lower prices than the
prevailing rates, the leading standard
books OF the market will not be offered
under that law, and the enforcement
OF such law will mean the confsca.
tion o. all the books now in the hands
OF the people, and the substitution OF
an untried, and probably inferior
series for them. After passing II Law
extending the time Of paying taxes,
the assembly cannot with consistency
virtually vote a new tax on the people

FACTS THAT SHOULD NOT BE OVER.
LOOKED.

arCNNNNA's
The Legislature should not forget the
fact that while the lessees OF school
lands are one party concerned in the
laws governing the leasing OF these
lands, there is another class much
larger and more numerous, who are
more vitality and intimately concerned
namely, .the $4,000 boys and girls who
are largely dependent upon the reve-
nue. from this source for their edu.
cation.
The two bills-house bill No. l4s,
and the council substitute bill--seems
too much directed to the protection Of
these lessees az the expense Of the
school children, and great fears are
entertained that II either Of these bill
pass in their present form, lessees and
friends will have It in their power to
seriously cripple, IL not jeopArdize,
this great fund which ought TO be
treated as sacred
Except In old Oklahoma there are
sixteen or more Of these lessees besides
their friends in each township, who,
under the provisions Of these bills,
can virtually control the leasing price
OF these lands, while in the former
there are eight lessees in each town
ship besides others interested in tn,
leases aud their friends.
Protect the lessees In everything
that Is right and just, but at the same
time protect the 50, 600 school children
Of Oklahoma.
