The KlOwa and Comauche Country to Open.

The KlOwa and COmanche Country to Open
The people near the borders Of the
KiOwa and Comanche country believe
that the day Of waiting is passing
rapidly and that tie country will be
thrown open without further delay.
The editor OF the Duncan Banner says
he has it from reliable source that
the attorney for the Kiowa and Com.
anche Indians at Washington wired
the Indian agent at ALadarko a few
days ago that there was but little
doubt but what the present congress
would ratify the treaty and declare
the country open for settlement at an
early date.
The editor quoted above believes
that the opening of the reservation to
white settlement will take place dur
ing the next eighteen months beyond
all question. He prints letter from
Congressman Stephens OF Texas, to
DR.. J. F. Robertson of Duncan, in
which he says;
"Your letter to hand. Yes, l have
by hard work secured the passage OF
my bill through the house 10 open the
Comanche and Kiowa reservation for
settlement and at present the chance
for this bill passing the senate is very
lattering, indeed. 10 fact know Of
no one TO fight it unless II is Mr. Platt
but from what | can hear great
many Republicans favor the bill"
A bill collector who makes frequent
trips into the Kiowa and COmaDche
country throws some light on the
methods employed by interested par
ties to keep the country from opening
to settlers. He was making bis
way from Chickasha across the cour-
try to Anadarko to lcOk up some re-
calcitrant debtors. II was along In
December and the bill collector could
not avoid noticing the fine corn crop
that was everywhere being harvested.
Nearing Anadarko be stopped where
a farmer was cribbIng corn. Never
had he seen dner looking corn, scarce
ly an ear shcrt Of foot In length and
many that would measure more, and
as nice and plump-lOOking as the fat
ears that were devoured by the lean
ones 10 the time OF Joseph, Pharoah's
famous prime minister. On the way
10 the agency he fell 10 with a ranch
man bound for AnTdarko aud their
conversation turned upon the country

There is q farmer living near
Ardmore who richly deserves the
undivided attention Of the courts
long enough to place him safely
behind prison bars. His name is
unknown and probably never will
be to the parties most interested,
There is a lady living in Ard
more who has splendid orchard
and it has produced abundantly
this year. She canned and pre-
served all the fruit she had any
use for. and gave to her neighbors
without limit. Still there was an
abundance of fruit remaining in
the orchard.
One day last week farmer of
nice appearance, driving good
team and giving general evidence
of a prosperous condition stopped
at the lady's house and asked what
she intended doing with her sur
plus fruit. She told him sht
didn't know; that she had supplied
her neighbors with all they wished
and had fully supplied her owl
needs.
Thereupon the farmer proposed
to haul it away and sell it OF
shares, stating that there was ;
good market for nice peaches. Th
lady consented and the farme
loaded his wagon from her orchar'
: aud drove away. He has not Deel
seen or heard from since by tn
lady who trusted to his honesty.
Such men deserve punishment
to the fullest extent Of the law
and it is to be hoped that hi
identity will be discovered.
