To Aid the Dawes Commission.

Washington July 27-Secretary
Hitchcock has decided to aid the
Dawes commission in it's work a..
mong the five civilized tribes by
giving governmental recognition
and advantages first to those tribes
which agree to treaties with the
commission.
Acting on this plan the Interior
department will not permit the
laying out and survey OF townsites
in the Cherokee nation until the
Cherokees have treated with the
Dawes commission and the treaty.
has been finally ratified by con-
gress. Instructions to this effect
have been sent to j. George
Wright, U. q. Indian inspector for
the Indian Territory.
II has also been decided to allot
ths lands Of the Wichita reserva-
tion as soon as tho alloting agents
now at work In the Kiowa, Com.
anche and Apache reservations
have concluded their work.
This will mean that the surplus
land IN the two great reservations
win be thrown open to settlement
at the same time. In the Wichita
reservation II Is estimated that
there will be at least $50, 600 acres
OF good agricultural lands for se..
tlere when the reservation il

THE HOLY SPIRIT.
The Bible Conception of the
Holy Spirit.

"And will pray the Father,
and he shall give you another
comforter, that He may abide with
you forever" This is Christ's
promise to his diciples. In verse
26 of John's gospel and 14th chap.
ter, we are told that this comforter
is the holy spirit. In the 10th
chapter his work is specified; vs..
STA. While Paul was in Ephesus
he found certain diciples; certain
ly none Of the original twelve,
therefore the promise of the Holy
Spirit embraced all who believe in
Christ, and is applicable today.
To them he said, Have you re-
ceived the Holy Spirit since you
believed" who answered, 1--WE
have not so much as heard wheth-
er the Holy Spirit is" that is, has
come. Paul upon one occasion
said; 81 thank God that bap-
tised none Of you but Crispus and
Gaius: / Cor. la; read also
verses l5.17. He considered the
preaching of the Gospel, the cross
and crucifction the important
truths to be emphasized. He also
laid great stress upon the receiv-
ing Of the Holy Ghost.
What we need is to get the bible
conception Of the Holy Spirit.
He is God. Peter in rebukine
Annanias says; "Why hath Satan
filled thine heart to lie to the Holy
Cost. Thou hast not lied unto
men, but unto the Holy Ghost"
The Holy Ghost conviets Of sir
and be reveals Jesus Christ. "HC
shall Rlorify me, for he shall re-
ceive Of mine, and shall shew i
unto you"
How is the Holy Spirit received
BY faith. See Gal. 80. Faith il

Peter preached to the people o
Galatia that Christ had borne
tn cir sins in His oan body on th'
cross. They received his tesli

The life Of the believer is the

speaks of the baptism OF the be-

mystical body Of Christ, and made
free from the flesh, free from the
law, our old Adamic standing lost,
because Christ died to deliver us.
Therefore we are buried with
Christ by the baptism OF the Holy
Spirit unto death; that like as
Christ was raised up from the
dead, (resurrection) by the glory
Of the Father, even so we should
also walk in newness Of life, for il
we have been planted together in

be also in the likeness Of his res
