The lynching problem has been
solved. An Eastern editor proposes
that in all regions where mobs and
lynchings are prevalent sheriffs and
deputies should be armed with kodaks.
When the mob attacks the Jail the
deadly instrument is turned upon it.
No would-be lyncher, it Is urged could
hold his ground. The only trouble in
connection with this proposed method
IL the fact that lynchers usually oper-
ate in the night. However, it might
prove effective to scatter officers among
the mob to make fash lights brilliant
enough to reveal the identity Of the
mobbers. The idea Is brilliant one.

A REPUBLICAN exchange says
there are but 160 trust concerns in
the United States. His eyes are
terribly blurred and blinded to the
truth. There were $50 of these
trusts organized in the state Of
New Jersey in the two months of
the present year alone. The same
paper says there are 1873 trusts in
free trade England-23 more than
there are in this country The
truth of the matter is there is not
a single trust company in the
whole of England organized and
conducting its business On the
American system, which fixes and
regulates the prices of the articles
it controls.

THE ARDMOREITE learns, on
good authority, that the railroad
people have applied to Ardmore
the same basis of traffic rates that
apply to and from all Texas COM
mon points.
Our merchants and members of
the commercial club should now
get to work and do some effective
work on the roads before the tide
of trade begins to flow to other
points. Denison will always be an
aspirant for a lot of trade which,
with good roads, would certainly
come to Ardmore. True, Denison
has an inducement in her saloons,
but that class of trade, Ardmore
will willingly give her. But we
want the trade of the honest yeo-
man, aud were the roads equal,
we know he will prefer trading
with his home people at a homa
market.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
VISIBLE REDUCTION IN CHEROKEE
MINERAL LAND LEASES,
The Dawes Commission Have Mode No
Reply to Secretary of Interiors De-
mand-choctsw Stanley lBsIsts on
More Attention to Tribal Rolls.
Special to the Ardmoreite.


Washington, d. c.. July TO-
Secretary Hitchcock is now giving
the most careful consideration to
the approval of mineral leases in
the Cherokee nation. The appli
cations of the Cherokee Oil com
pany, the Cudahy Oil company and
the Benjamin D. Bennington COM
pany- have been reduced so that
they now aggregate only 1S1 900
acres of land in the nation. This
is a reduction of nearly 800, 900
acres from their first applications.
Richard C. Adams, the representa-
tive of the Delawares here, is con-
tinuing his fight against the ap-
proyal of these leases. He has So
licited and received the assistance
of the Indian Rights Association,
which organization is taking an
active interest in the affair, and the
greatest pressure is being brought
to bear on the secretary by both
parties for and against the approval
of the leases. Within the last week
protests have been sent to the sec
retary against the approval of the
contracts by Hon. r. F. Pettigrew,
chairman of the committee on In
dian affairs of the senate; Hon.
James s. Sherman, chairman of
the committee on Indian affairs of
the house of representatives; Con-
gresham Charles S. Curtis of Kan
sas, member of the the committee
on Indian affairs of the house;
Rev. L. j. Morgan, eX-commis-
sioner of Indian affairs, and
many others. Arrayed on the other
side are powerful interests in Kan
sas City, Chicago, St. Louis and
New York, which are insisting that
the leases should be approved with
out delay. They are sustained in
their contentious by the decision
of Attorney General Vandevanter,
of the Interior Department. The
secretary is between the devil and
the deep sea, so to speak. He has
the matter under consideration and
he will probably not render de I
cision for several weeks. The In
dian Rights Association has caused
the publication of several lengthy
articles in eastern papers, showing
reasons why the leases should not
be proved, calling on the Secretary
of the Interior to carry out the
provisions of the Curtis law which
requires the segregation of 49,
900 acres of land in the Cherokee
nation to be set aside for the Della
awares before any oil, gas, coal or
other mineral leases approved.
