TO HASTEN THE SURVEY
Provision For Towns To Do
The Work.

Judge Stuart Monday presented
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, with
the amendment drawn ups by the
non.citizens Of the Indian Terri
tory, and which they desire to have
added to the Indian appropriation
bill. The amendment provides
that every town in the Indian Ter
ritory be allowed to make its own
map and that when this map has
been approved by the interior de-
partment, the appraisement OF the
town lots shall be made by town
site board appointed by the inter-
ior department.
Before presenting the amend
ment TO Senator Jones Judge Stuart
submitted it to Indian Commission
er Jones, who approved it. Sem
ator Jones will offer the amend
ment when the Irdisn bill is taken
up in the senate.
1.-THE object of the amendment, >
said Judge Stuart, sis to hasten
the work Of surveying the towns in
the Indian Territory. When every
town is allowed to make its own
survey, at iis own expense, there
will be q rivalry to get the work
completed first, and the resultwill
be that in less than q year all the
towns in the territory viii be sur
veyed and, We hope, appraised al

the secretary of the interior to be
used for public school purposes.
This is one of the most important
steps in connection with the de-
yelopment of that country.
"Another change that we need,
and which is absolutely essential
to the rapid development of that
country, is the establishment OF a
government Office where the re-
cords Of all cases and the papers
appertaining thereto may be kept,
so that they may be >examined by
the people there. AS it is, we are
compelled to send to Washington
to the interior department for all
information relsting to every case
that comes up. This takes weeks
and in many cases months of delay
and it can be easily avoided by the
establishment of local office,
which would not only minimize
expenses, but greatly facilitate the
Transaction of business. In addi-
ton to this we need delegate in
congress. AT present we are at the
beck and call of the representatives
from the states. Their time is
largely given up to looking after
the interests Of their constituents
and we need man in congress
who can devote his whole time to
the consideration of these ques-
tions." I"

They certainly are. We are
badly in need of more U. s. COM
missicners and the enactment of
legislation by congress increasing
their jurisdiction. The U. s.
courts in. the territory are deluged
with business and there should be
some legislation which will divert
the lesser cases to the U. S. COM
missioners. This could be done
with perfect propriety and would
result in numerous benefits to the

BENNETT INTERVIEWED.
Thinks Much Good Has Been
Accomplished.

------~--
Washington, March 19 - The
departments and congressman and
congressional committeeman are
receiving information at first hand
from the delegates OF the South
McAIester convention. | asked
Leo Bennett, who is one Of the
delegates appointed by the con-
vention, what progress the delega-
ton was making in its efforts to
secure remedial legislation for
the territory. He replied:
II believe that before we get
through we will have convinced
the members of the committees on
Indian affairs of the house and
senate that congress should inn
mediately enact some legislation
which will assist the people of the
territory in bringing order out OF
the chaotic conditions now exist
ing"
"Hew can this be done2"
by strengthening the adminIs-
tratiye agencies in the territory.
and by putting Goals Of fire on the
backs Of the present officials so
that they will be made to attend
strictly to the affairs there. The
work Of the Dawes commission Is
+. deplorably delayed and under ex-
listing conditions it would mot be
completed mithin the life time of
che average citizen Of the territory.
The town sitting is being delayed
TO such an extent that it will be
years before the work is complet-
ed. In the town OF Muskogee, for
instance, judging from the present
manner in which the work is be-
ing conducted, it will take ten
years to complete the work of APP
praisement and assessment. There
is no business firm in the world
which would tolerate for an in
slant the dilatory tstics pursued.
If any private or corporate con-
cern in the west should send
board Of surveyors in any of these
towns and they did not complete
their work within GO or 80 days
they would be summarially re-
moved. There is no reason why
the work ofthe government should
not be carried on ia similar man.
ner. The people in the Choctaw
and the Chickasaw nations so far
as the town sitting is concerned,
unfortunately are under the pro-
visions Of their treaty, only one
townsiis board being provided for
each OF those nations. Three
towns are growing up where only
one is being plated and appraised
by the present boards in those two
nations. Unless some action is
taken it means that the townsite
boards will continue there forever,
as towns will grow up iasler than
they can survey and appraise
them.
