Late Happenings of More Than
Ordinary Interest


In response to numerous requests for
permission to bring cattle into the
territory for feeding purposes, Cover
nor Barnes makes public the following
letter in which he states the conditions
upon which cattle may be shipped in:
guthrie, o. T., Aug. "a, 1895.
"Messrs. Hoffman, Charles IL Conk-
lin, Sac and Fox Agency, o T.:
Gen tlemen-Replying to your favor
of recent date in which you urge that
quarantine rules be amended so as to
permit cattle for feeding to be brought
within that part of the territory Of
Oklahoma north and west of the quar-
antine line defined in rule one, and
south and east of the United 5 aues
quaran tine line in Oklahoma, have to
say that under rules seven and eight
of the quarantine regulations OF the
territory of Oklahoma for the year
1898, cattle may, after October /, be
brought into the counties of Cleveland,
Pottawatomie, Oklahoma, Logan, Lin
coin, Payne, Pawnee and Noble for
feeding purposes II the same, on in
spection, are found TO be free from
infection. / enclose herewith a copy
OF the quarantine proclamation and
the rules and refer you especially to
rules seven and eighG.
Rule eight defines the condition
Under which inspection may be had.
1 called a meeting of the quarau tine
board for the purpose of investigating
and discussing this question and wh lie
it may seem to be a hardship TO The
pc oople of your part of the territory who
desire to bring cattle in for feeding
purposes without the required inspec-
tion, yet the experience of the last sew
eral years has been that it is even
dangerous to native cattle to let cattle
from the Indian Territory into OKLA
homa even in the months of December
and January.
Secretary Edwards says: 1--WE have
had great deal of fever throughout
the territory this summer with great
fatality among the herds in eastern
Oklahoma, the origin of all which is
traceable to southern cattle brought
in last winter carrying with them IN
fection which survived the mild
weather.
The interests of the feeders in the
eastern part of our territory and tLose
of the farmer having native stock are
somewhat antagonistic and the terri
torial law as it now stands fixes the
time in which cattle may be brought
in without inspection as contempota-
neous with the regulations of the gen
eral government, which regulation
opens The quarantine from Novem Der
IS, ls9s, to January Is, 1899, and the
board is powerless to modify the reg
ulations to meet the differences which
exist.
1--WE will arrange to have inspection
