Bill introduced to Divide It
Into Counties.

Representative Stephens, of Tex
as, has introduced a bill by re-
quest, to divide the Chickasaw
nation Of the Indian Territory in
to counties. to establish county
seats therein, and to provide for
land Office and q recorder in each
ccanty and designating the duties
Of county clerks as recorders. The
bill provides thEi the first county
shall be named Jones, and is in
the northwestern corner Of the
Chickasaw nation; that the second
shall be named Sherman, and is
Immediately south, taking in the
Duncan country. The third
county shall be Stephens county,
including the northwestern bound
ary Of the nation. The fourth
county takes in the country Of
which Marietta is the center. and
Marietta is named as the county
seat. The ftth is named after
Congressman Little, and Ardmore
is designated as the county seat.
The sixth county is named after
Senator Platt, and Pauls Valley is
the county seat. This county
goes north Of the Canadian river
on each side of the Santa Pc rail-
way. The seventh county IS
named Kyle, and the eighth.
Rawhns. These counties take in
the entire eastern portion OF the
Chickasaw nation from the Red
river to the Canadian. NJ county
seats are provided for except Ard
more, Pauls Valley and Marietta,
which towns are all on the Santa
Fee road. The other county seats
are yet to be named.
The bill in general terms pro-
vides for county boundary lines,
for county clerks Or recorders, and
has no connection whatever with
any territorial bill heretofore in
trodused or any bill affecting any
ether nation. II has been we'll
and carefully drawn and on next
Thursday a subcommittee will be
appointed by the committee on
Indian affairs TO hear arguments
on the bill, and it Is probable a
committee report on the bill will
be had this session. The bill will
be satisfactory TO Marietta, Ard
more and Pauls Valley, and prob
ably TO Chickasha, Duncan and
Ryan, but will ia all probability
meet with some opposition from
Davis, Wynnewood, PARCEL and
other towns. The bill will be earn
estly advocated, and the indi-
cations are for favorable report.
