The settling up of the Kiowa, Com-
anche and Arrapahoe reservations
In the indian Territory mean much
for two. at least, OF the ave civiliaed
tribes. as well as for the white peo-
pie who win be given opportunity to
settle there and take up homes. The
land was originally the property OF
the Choctaws and Chickasaws. and
was by them leased to the United
States government for the purpose
of locating the other tribes thereon.
This property was included in the
lands given the Ohickasaws and
Choctaws In the treaty of 1882, and
aimee the time it was leased by the
United States government for the
occupancy OF the Comanches Klo-
was and Arrapahoes, it has been
known as s.the leased district"
Some question as TO the land be-
longing TO Chickasaws and Choctaws
arose and the two nations employed
Capt. J. 8. Stanley of Atoka. to bring
suit i'm the court of claims for title.
This he did, and succeeded in get
ting q large per capita payment in
1895. This capita was for money
| due on lease contract, and also car
| ried with it terms of sale to the
United States government. 1t put
s1O3 in the hands of every man,
woman and child IN the Choctaw
and Chickasaw nations. Under the
terms by which the Choctaws and
Chickasaws hold their landi the
Chickasaws having the smaller pop
ulation, and in the treaty, all reven-
ues derived from lands held by the
two nations in common, when de-
rived, goes two thirds to the CLoc-
tawS and one-third to the Chicks'
saws. There will be a final settle
ment with the two nations for the
Kiowa, Comanche and Arrapahoe
reservations. The amonnt of money
that will be paid the Chicksaws ano
Choctaws ON this final settlement
will amount to $4,000, 900 in rounc
J numbers. This money will all be
: paid out per capita. and will be pu
into the hands of every Chickasav
and Choctaw man, woman and chile
01e6.ee. This will be the largest pei
capita payment that has eyer beer
made to the two tribes, and it II
thought the payment will come In
short time as congress has passed al
act taking advantage of the purchase
OF the land. land declaring it opel
for settlement. One million dollar
will be paid out in the ChickasaV
nation, aud two million will be pai'
out to the Choctaws. This will max
good times for at least six or eigh
months, for the Chickasaws AM
Ohcctaws, and following other pc
capita payments tnat will be made
this payment means much to Texa
as this state borders on the Chicka
saw and Choctaw country, and fror
Texas is largely drawn the commer
cial supplies of the two nations. Th
Choctaws and Chickasaws hold abou
; two-thirds of the Indian Territory
all of it on the southern boundary
, Their holdings extend from the est
meridian west to the Arkansas lin
ON the east, and from the Sout
Canadian river on the north to tn
Texas line at Red river on the south
This makes these two nations mos
2 valuable contiguous territory, an
every condition is beneficial to thos
sections included in the Uhocta'
and Chickasaw nations, is beneficif
to Texas.-Oapital.

The Work at Potlatch,

The Shelton men who are employed
by the new Railroad and logging con
Germ at Potlatch were all over to spend
the holiday with their families, aud re-
port the work progressing as fast as
money will push it. Albert Johnson
is superintendent OF the work, Tilly
Browne is the surveyor, and James
Neil has charge of the construction
gangs. Already about Az miles Of
road have been graded and $50 tons OF
new heavy steel rails, weighing sc
pounds to the yard, have been received
from the mills, and work of track-lay.

Climax cog-wheel engines are expect
ed every day. They weigh about for
ty tons each, and with new locomo-

equipment of the road. Logging cars
will not be used, but the track will be
constructed with view of hauling the
| logs between the rails, plan now in
vogue in m any logging camps.
In spite of the steep grades. Mr. Neil
says that the road will be as fine a
piece of track as he ever worked on.
Some fifteen thousand ties are already
on the ground, and as soon as the en-
gines arrive track-laying will proceed
very fast. 1t is the intention OF the
company to operate three large logging
camps on the road, one will be put in
as soon as the line is completed as far
as graded, and track will then be
extended about three miles further.
when the other camps will be started
as soon as places are made for them.
A pile driver is now at work putting
in the trestles, and the grading crew
contains thirty men at this time max
ing ready for track-laying. Without
much of flourish the company is put
ting perhaps the second largest log
ging industry in the State, building
small town, grading streets and
grounds, and adding water system.
The Company hotel is built, with
store, office and living houses. A. II.
Anderson's house is building, and the
crew of carpenters will soon begin the
construction. of a dozen cottages for
employees. Aside from the concession
to L. K. Munson, who will soon build

pany will not allow business conducted

A High Mark.

The New York Almanac for 1901, is.
sued by Chas H Fletcher of New York
City, has set'a high mark for similar
publications during the new century
and shows remarkable enterprise on
the part of the publisher when we con.
slider that it is intended solely for free
distribution, The numerous publica-
tons of this character are usually got
ton up with the single idea of cheap
ness, while the thong hit of expense has
certainly been set aside in the case of
the New York Almanac.
The artistic colorings of the cover,
the accuracy of its caleudcrs and its
fund of information all go to make it
well worthy of perusal and preserva-
ton. 1t has innuiuerable hluts for
months as to the care of children. A
unique page is the "Baby's Record
page, which is in blank, to be filled in
with baby's name, date of birth, cut
first tooth, etc. The whole is a very
|creditable piece of work and may be
procured at any drug store or direct
on request, free.
