Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1900-04-12

In the light OF the returns from
the towns OF the Indian Territory
where elections were held Tues
day Of this week, there is a strong
indication that the Indian Terri
tory is safely democratic. 1t is
reasonably certain that the towns
contain greater proportion of re-
publicans incorporation to popula.
ton than the country districts.
The reasons for this are obvious.
In the FIRST place every town is the
home of a greater or a fewer num-
ber of government officials who
are nothing if not loyal to the
party, and their numbers to which
may be added their influence 60 in
a large measure to strengthening
the party machinery. But notwith-
standing all this the returns from
thu towns Of the territory indicate
great democratic strength. This
being true it is therefore very safe
to surmise that republican con-
gress will not want to make a state
here for some time to come either
with or without Oklahoma, as in
either event it would be demo.
cratic.

1t has been rumored that Judge
Gill made an order recently to the
effect that the several commission

THE Ammons case against the
South Penn is one OF interest to every
oil man in the country. The princi-
pie on which the action is based is
that company drilling must protect
enc man against wells drilled on an
other mans land which drain the
first. The South Penn claimed that
IL could locate the wells to the best
advantage of themselves regardless of
the owners of the land. The Supreme
court has held that damages can be
obtained when an owner has been
I5given the worst of 1t by the company

sorry to see him depart from Morgan
town.
WITH constant work on the streets
it seems to be impossible to keep
them clean under present conditions.
The question is a difficult one A
sweeper is very much desired but
whether we can we'll afford the ex-
pense it will bring must be carefully
considered. 1t would seem however
that a great part of the benefit of
paved streets is lost by not keeping
them clean, the question being how
that can be done at cost we can
afford to pay.
OWING to the bad weather farmers
have done comparatively little pillow
ing and other spring work. 1t began
to look on Sunday as though spring
was here and much activity would
be displaned on the farm, but the
cold rain on Monday dispelled that
hope There is little doubt that
spring must come soon and work
will have to be prosecuted vigorous
ly. A little out door work was done
during the very few good days of
the past month but hardly enough
to count.
SOME time during the year on
which we have entered since April
first we will have free delivery in Nor
gantown. The business Of the Office
is now large enough TO justify this
and the system will be inaugurated as
soon as the department an be induc-
ed to move. There is some chance
that it may not be granted as the
matter is entirely in the hands OF the
department but it Is thought that
the obstacle will not prove to be
very great one.
THERE is a greater demand for coal
lands at the present time than ever
before. Thousands of acres OF West
Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania
lands have been optioned and sold
during the past year at prices which
would have been considered fabulous
a few years ago. Not only this, but
the demand for undeyeloped lands
still continues; scarcely week passes
without the announcement Of the
sale Of new fields. Capitalists from
the north, south, east and west have
been attracted TO the almost bound
less mineral wealth OF this section of
the country, and have not been slow
to invest. Such period Of prosperi-
ty as is being enjoyed by the coal pro-
ducing and hitherto undeveloped coal
regions of this country was never be-
fore known, and prospects are very
bright for continuance. The Euro
pean demand is credited as the cause
Of considerable OF the present activity.
