Hm Holt q Meeting to Declare 1gainst
PaWhee County.
PAwHusKA, Ok, April 2G.-A mass
meeting of all the taxpayers in the
Usage Indian reservation has been
called to meet here Saturday, April 30,
to protest against what is declared to
be unjust taxation by the board of
commissioners OF Pawnee county, to
which this reservation is attached for
judicial purposes. The meeting will
undoubtedly be a large one, and an
effort will be made to have the reser-
vation attached TO Indian Territory
instead OF Pawnee county.
There has been friction over taxes
ever since this reservation was at
taehed to Oklahoma. A majority Of
the taxpayers here are farmers Each
member Of family that follows any
industry outside OF working for a
licensed trader pays into the treasury
OF the Usage nation 81 a month for the
privilege of working This amounts
to sl2 year for each person, and
where there are five or six persons in
family the contribution is heavy.

them, and object strongly TO the as

oklahoma has been sustained by the
supreme court in making this tax, the
decision being that it was a competent
subject for legislative action. TO pro-
eeed regularly any protest against the
system should be made to the legisla.
ture. The territory claims that the
material and educational interests OF
the Usage reservation are promoted by
the attachment of the latter for judi

a continued isolation OF the citizens oi

THOSE FENCES AGAIN.


Wcsiern Oklahoma Continues to Protest
.tDaiHI Land Office order.
BEAVER. Ok, April 97.-Cattlemen
in this part OF Oklahoma are opposed
TO the removal OF fences by the depart
mept of the interior, which is to be
done, according to newspaper dis.
patches, under the direction OF Forrest
Mckinley, special land agent at Guth-
rie. The Beaver Herald discusses the
proposed removal as follows:
"If the question OF geeping up the
fences or cutting them down were left
to tho decision OF the people who are
directly interested there is little doubt
that the fences would be left as they
are That the fences are invaluable
IA guarding against diseased cattle
from outside territory no one who has
given the matter consideration would
think OF denying. In Beaver county
the fencing Of public lands for grazing
purposes has been a practice for some
time and has evidently become more
popular each year. The little cattle
men and the big cattlemen alike recog-
nize the advantage gained In this way.
There is reason to believe the taking
down OF the pasture Fences would
cause a general loss TO stockmen. The
herds would be subject to much more
SIX from outside sources. They could
not ba as free from disease as they
now are. Whatever may be the opin-
ion OF people living outside OF Beaver
county, as TO the advisability OF taking
down the fences here, IL is certain that
n the matter were to be settled by the
people of the county they would by
general cons mt prefer TO see the
! fences remain as they are.

Welcome. Hawaii.

After years of weary waiting the
people of Hawaii have been admit
ted to shelter beneath the folds of
the American flag, the proud en-
blem of freedom. 1t will be re-
membered that during the closing
days of President Harrison's admin
istration in 1898 treaty for annex
alton was negotiated but the Senate
failed to take action thereon at that
time. Harrison's successor, upon
assuming the reins Of government,
promptly pigeon-holed the treaty
and applied him to the task of re-
suscitating the defunct monarchy
buried upon the island. The people
of the United States sent up such an
indignant and emphatic protest
against Cleveland's course in this
matter that he was constrained to
abandon it, and the Republic Of
Hawaii was formally organized.
Upon McKinley's accession 70 the
Presidency the annexation was again
revived, and negotiations for an
other annexation treaty were brought
to a successful issue in June follow
ing. Later, this treaty was ratified
by the Hawaiian Senate but the
necessary two-thirds vote favor
ing ratification could not be OBJ
tanned in the United States Senate,
and the question was submitted to
both houses of Congress, by whom
the measure has at last been adopted.
