"The best Of literary editors are

high-class periodical bunkoed as badly
as one of the leading American March

Il had. supposed" he continued,
"that every well read person was fa-
miliar with the pathetic little story
of the poor old French count who had
fallen on evil days, and. finding HIM
self a guest at a banquet, slipped some
dainties into his pocket to carry home
to his sick child. Before the party
leave the table a valuable diamond
which had been parsed around for in

INJUNCTION GRAN TED
BY Judge Gill In the W. c.
Rogers Case.

The whole question as TO the le-
gality Of the collection Of tribal
royalties and taxes by the interior
department, and the method Of
procedure is now in fair way to
be definitely tested. Judge Gill
today granted a temporary injunc-
tion restraining J George Wright
or his deputy inspectors from
interfering in any way with the
mercantile business Of w. c. Rog-
ers at Talala whose store week
ago was closed and locked by In
spector Frank G. Churchill and
the Indian policemen in his en-
ploy. The case is set for hearing
at this place July z next, and the
issue viii be for the government
to show cause why the Injunction
should not be made or in other
words the ease viii be tried upon
its merits.
w. G. Rogers has large gener-
al merchandise store at Talala and
refused to pay the tribal tax de-
manded by the interior depart
ment. He was then threatened
with removal from the Indian ter
ritory if he did not pay, and still
refusing, his store was closed and
locked and guard placed over it
last week. When the injunction
was granted today by Judge Gill,
w. Il. Kornegay, Rogers attorney
then telephoned ]. George Wright
the facts and received reply that
he would wire the Indian police at
once to open the store. A number
Of the leading attorneys in the ter
ritory being retained in the case,

the attorneys are W. H. Kornegay,
Davenport and Thompson, Smith
and MelIette and Luman F. Park
