To Expedite Work.

Washington, March 18.-Kepre-
sentative Stephens has introduced
resolution which is preliminary
to more definite measure design
ed to close up the townsite affairs
Of the Indian Territory in as short
time as possible. 1t is apparent
that the force now employed for
the purpose is wholly inadequate
for the task, and unless a different
system is adopted the work, which
should be completed within a year
or two, will be dragged along in
definitely, much to the disadyant-
age of many of the thriving towns
of the Territory. The plan sug-
gested by the Stephens resolution
is to have a separate townsite
commission for each town, and it
is claimed that many commissions
employed for a short time will cost
no more than one general commits
sion for long period of years.
Following the resolution is bill
which seeks to correct all the un-
satisfactory conditions which are
set forth in the resolutions. 1t
provides that each place where a
court of record is now held in the
Territory shall be recording dis
trict with jurisdiction to record all
conveyances necessary to rapid
closing up of the work of transfer
ring townsites. The deputy clerk
at each place is made the ex-officio
recorder and fees are allowed for
the service performed. The three
districts already in existence are
not abolished, but their jurisdic-
ton is limited to the jurisdiction
of their respective courts. The
resolution and bill are favorably
regarded by the committee on In
dian affairs.

WHEN Senator Mason secured
the floor of the senate to speak on
his resolution IN behalf of the
Beers the senate went into secret
session and the chairman of the
committee, Senator Davis, left the
room, lest he should hear some
unpleasant truths. Theoretically
the things said in secret session do
not reach the ears of the people.
Some leak out, but always in in
complete and garbled form. 1t
was the purpose of the senate to
see that Mason's voice did not
reach the people. and the people
are beginning to wonder whether
their voices can ever reach the
senate, as now constituted.

People all over the country are
anxiously watching the Territory
aud hoping for settled conditions
to prevail soon. If congress
should enact salutary laws for the
good of the people here the Terri
tory would develop more rapidly
than she has ever done. People
from all the surrounding states
would flock here for the purpose of
buying homes in the rich agrlcul-
tural valleys or for the pulpose of
digging wealth from the mineral
pregnant mountains.

of these things needed it does look
like enough public spirit and
enterprise could be worked up to
get some one of them started on a
basis sufficiently firm to insure
success. Let's get to work and do

EYEN while the people are clam
oring for the right to elect senators
by popular ballot the politicians in
the senate of the nation are making
ready to deny emphatically that
the people, even through represen-
tatives. are worthy Of any such
privilege. The theory of certain
supporters of Mr.. Quay Is not that
his appointment is regular. but that
he is the victim of plot and de-
serves a seat in the senate. As
they sec it, senator's have a right
to make senators. 1t is said that
in case Mr.. Quay is seated, Gov.
Tunnel of Delaware will appoint
ex-Attorney General John Biggs to
fill the vacancy in that state. Gov.
Tunnel has stated all along that
he would not fill the vacancy unless
Quay is seated. In view of the
probability that the latter will be
seated, Mr.. Biggs' friends have
become very active during the past
week, and have been deluging the
governor with petitions in his
behalf. The friends of the Hon.
Willard Salisbury also are active,
but it seems to be settled that Gov.
Tunnel will appoint Biggs, who is
described as an old-style democrat.
Thus we see just what dangerous
and daring precedent may bring
forth even in advance.-News.
