Commends The Chieftain.

Editor Chieftain:-I am glad to
know that there is one paper in
the territory with backbone
enough to tell the whole truth in
regard to the notorious wbiskey
and gambling business that has
been carried on in Wagner for
the last three years.
The business men and cool
headed citizens of this town are
opposed to a union with Okla
homa. The great (Y) single state
hood league, organized here a few
days ago, was the work of a few
would.be politicians and want.to-
be leaders, of both political
parties. We are very anxious for
a change in the administration of
affairs in the territory, and that
change can be made by giving us
a territorial form Of government of
ocr own, and not by tying us onto
Oklahoma, whose principal pro-
ducts are drouth. billiards, and
taxation.
The Chcctaw council appropriate
ed 500 for the blind school at Fl.
Gibson. Now let the Cherokee
council and the Greek council come
up with a good healthy appropria.
ton and this worthy institution
will be put on its feet to stand.

The S126,0 600 steal of a few years
ago was doubtless the biggest of
all the raids that has been made
upon the Cherokee treasury unless
it be the Strip payment steal. No
one knows just the amount flched
from the Cherokee nation by the
corrupt roll upon which that pay.
ment was made. In the light Of
the present census being made by
the Dawes Commission there is not
much doubt but at least one thous-
and fraudulent names were paid
Strip money. But the $l26 900 was
not so much a theft as a hold-up,
while the Strip transaction had all
the ear-marks of straight stealing.
The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1900-11-03

The national council That will
convene at Tahlequah next Mon
day will be notable itBOt notori-
Gus, but IS safe to say Mat the days
of big steals are over. But none
Of the thieves are wearing striped
clothes, and all are ready to try it
again the first opportunity.

One Of the arguments made in
favor of single statehood with Ok
lahoma is that it would abolish
carpet-bag rule and give both ter
ritories self-government. The
difference between Oklahoma car
petbagism and the kind we already
have is a distinction without a
difference. The Indian Territory
would prefer to be dominated by
the Federal government than Ok.
lahoma. A territorial form Of
government for the five tribes is
about what we will get, and Okla
homa can either remain a terri.
tory or be admitted as a state.

OF his reported death have agents IN ST.

PISTOL AND SHEARS THE WEAPON.
That Figured Ia a Fight between w.
&. Groves aud 4. =. Peters.


quite sensation was created on Bull
street and Oglethorpc avenue yesterday
afternoon by the threat OF W C. Groves
to shoe, A. J. Peters. upon whom be drew
his pistol. and the subsequent hghy be-
tween them.
Tho difficulty took place in the store OF
Haslam q Co. where Peters Is employed.
Groves is the proprietor OF the bar OF the
Planters Hotel when seen al the bar
racks. where he had been set. but from
which he was released on bond. he said
that tho whole trouble had been brought
about by a disagreement between his
wife and Mrs. Peters. The men were
thus drawn into the difficulty and a. the
time the quarrel between them started.
Groves had gone TO Peters place Of bus
mess TO ask him about an alleged insult
Ing speech that he had made 10 Mrs.
Groves the nigh, before.
According 20 the story told by Groves
when Dee made known 10 Peters the object
81 his visit, Peters came from behind
the counter where be was standing. aud
walked with him to tho Bull street door.
In a short time the discussion got 20
warm that Groves called Peters "A --
-- liar. which Peters promptly resented
6y a blow 10 Groves face. He then went
ln the store. followed by Groves who
SAYS that thinking him armed. he drew
bis pistol. but threw 10 out on the Side
walk when he was assured thar his oppo-
uent was uuarmed. ana went for him wish
bis hsis. he says that In the fight that
followed they were both near the counter.
where there was lying a pair OF heavy
cutting shears. and that with these Peters
attempted 20 stab him but that he threw
him down before bee was able 10 do so.
A. this time several on-lookers inter-
fercd and, separating the men. induced
Groves 10 leave the place. Meantime Mr..
Fritchard. clerk in the store. had tcle-
phoued 90 the barracks fer "a policeman.
ana patrolman Frank J. Smith arrived
and arrested Groves a snort distance from
the scene OF the encounter.
Peters tells a story that differs IN many
particulars from that 81 Groves. lie I'D
mlfs that NJ struck Groves first. but says
that u was only otter Groves had applied
to him an eplthot that no man could fan
20 resent Also be admits the fight that
followed In the store, but denies that 90

with the shears or even 10 get hold ~

that after be and Groves mad struggled
FOR awhile he was thrown ana while
lying on the floor Groves threw the shears

threw q heavy cloth weight at him. but
this fortunately also missed is aim
