AT LAYTON
ARE BAFFLED
Would Work Up Scheme on
Governors Land Selection.
JENKINS Is BACKED
BY Washington Authorities
Whom He Consulted.

Guthrie. o. T., Oct. 24-The attention
of the school land department has been
called to the fact that attorneys in Law
ton. thinking that they have discovered
that a part of the indemnity school land
E was selected by Governor Jenkins and
territorial officials for the territory in
the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache In
dian country withou authority. are pur-
porting for fees of g25 and $50 TO give this
information upon which application is
be made to the land Office for these lands
named by the attorneys as a basis with
which the territory's rights can be con-
tested.
Secretary J. J. Houston was asked this
morning about the matter and stated that
there was nothing in the claim whatever.
According to The statements Of Mr..
Houston who was with Governor Jen-
kins at Washington, there is nothing by
which the attorneys could make a con-
test. This proposition was fully discuss
ed with the department at Washington.
The question was raised then and at
torneys in the departments stated that
it was a straight legal proposition. 1t
was decided that the lands selected were
only taken where it was found that the
territory had lost lands by allotment or
reservation and that no question could
arise in the future that these lands were
finally lost TO the territory.
1t was in order to determine on just
such points as these, for the immediate
selection Of the indemnity lands that
caused Governor Jenkins to make a trip
to Washington. The argument was made
being brought UP by Governor Jenkins
in order that the territory should lose
nothing to which it was evident that it
was entitled. It is now apparent that if
these lands had not been selected at the
time and in the manner in which they
were and if the territory's interest had
not been fully discussed, as well as care
fully looked after, Oklahoma, without
question would have lost over one hun
dred thousand acres of land which will
eventually so into the school and other
funds.
Attorney General Strang was with Gov
ernor Jenkins and as a result of his trip
is conversant to d degree with all of the
facts in connection with the claim of the
territory which was allowed. After dis
cussi0n in the interior department. the
result of the investigation was submit /
ted to Secretary Hitchcock and met with I
his approval
It is very evident that the territory's |
claim is on a sound basis and persons in !
stitudng contests along this line can ex- !
pect very little consideration from the /
interior department and as result Of re-
ceiving such advice from new country at
torneys viii lose all money required by
them for fees. The school land depart
ment viii pay little attention to these
contests and if the matter is taken up
with the interior department there can
only be one manner in which they will be
settled.

EXPLAINS RETROGRADE MOVE

In this connection Admiral Schley ex-
plained his retrograde movement so-caIIed
to the westward, saying that he had not
considered the economical aspect of this
step, as economical features could never
be taken into consideration in military
movements. He had, he said, made care
ful inquiry as to the coal supply OF the
various ships and had turned over in his
mind the question Of their endurance in
battle.
Il was he said. thinking over in my
mind that a squadron. in its coaling en-
durance or at least in its speeding endur-
ance, was equal only to its weakest mem
bers, just as the speed of a feet depends
upon its slowest vessel; that it would be
necessary to equalize as nearly as we
could their standards Of stem in order TO
be Of effective use as unit. and that de-
termined the westward movement.
Now, the telegram sent TO the honor

only to the battleships as interpreted.

N, chanisfn of his body as he under
stands the machinery Of the mill, lie
would know that when a man is weak
ana run down, when his activities are
slowed down if not altogether stopped,
there is something wrong with the power
plant of the body.
The power plant Of the body includes
the stomach and its associated organs Of
digestion and nutrition. All physical
strength is derived from food digested
aud converted into nutrition. Nutrition
is the power which runs the body
When nutrition fails the body fails. The
chemical changes by which food is con-
verted into nutrition take place in the
stomach and digestive and nutritive
tracts. When the stomach IS diseased.
the nutrition is reduced and the body's
power is reduced in proportion.
