The Indian territory Court OF
Appeals in its opinion in the Mus
kogee townsite injunction case
reaches the marvellous conclusion
that 1.-THE lands of the Greek nation
are not held in common because
the title is vested in the nation as
a tribe" Now if these learned
judges would have gone on and
explained the meaning of this dec.
laration a food of light would
have been thrown on a trouble
some question. There are two
ways of holding land. 1t must be
vested either in severalty or in
common. The patent was con-
veyed TO the tribe as tribe and
certainly not as individuals.
There is hairsplitiing distinction
between public ownership and
common ownership, but distinc-
iion without a difference. The
opinion Is a remarkable one
thoughout. Ii is readable from
the fact that the case in point cost
Judge John r. Thomas his head.

WILSON'S BIG WHEAT CROP
VIII Harvest More Than Eight
Thousand Bushels

Twenty years ago D. A Wilson was
working for John Mccormick for SIS a
month. He now ewns 64o acresof Sedg-
wick county farm land and harvested $50
acres Of wheat this year and he expects
to thresh $50 bushels He does not owe
a dollar on his land and this is a good in
dication OF the value Of land in the Ar
kansas valley.
Deacon" Wilson IS cheerful even un-
der adverse circumstances. It required
three binders to harvest the wheat and
he says he was compelled to run one Of
the machines himself, when three of his
ribs were broken about two weeks before
harvest and he had a carbuncle on his
neck and felor on the second finger
of his left hand. 7 seem to be out Of luck
this year and that finger sticks out and
jabbed some part OF the machine every
time I moved. he said last night He
considers the whole affair a good joke on
himself
Mr.. Wilson will thresh all OF his wheat
out Of the shock and store it in bins on
his farm. He says the expense Is about
ten per cent less than TO stack the wheat.
He says Hiram Irboden told him sew
ersl years ago that dry wheat put in a
bin would never became musty from
sweating and he has found that TO be
true. II It is wet from rain, it viii be-
come musty. but not from the sweat
This is a very important fact, which
perhaps few farmers understand

BE president Of just that many separate
institutions
Speaking Of this chain Of banks puts
me in mind Of an incident that happened
in Dakota during the crisis OF 1893 a
large financial rnogu OF prepossessing
appearance started a National bank and
he was going to show the ordinary bank
ers something about banking He started
one bank and drew the money out Of il 70
start another and then drew out OF that
TO start third and kept this Up until he
had six banks. His idea was that each
bank would be supported by all the rest
and would be strengthened thereby. Well,
the crisis came and with It the heartless
bank examiner. He found all the banks
calling on all the rest for funds and he
closed the whole outfit One day this
financial mogul walked into the ofdce OF
the comptroller Of the currency at Wash
ington, and said: How do you do. Air.
Eckles. You have closed my banks out in
Dakota and 7 want TO talk 70 you about
opening them
Yes, the comptroller told him he had
closed them and he intended to keep
him out OF the banking business while
he remained comptroller OF the currency.
The fellow had his cheek saved from the
wreck and he told the comptroller that
he was tired and wanted out Of the bank
ing business anyhow. and Mr.. Eckles
told him he would assist him in getting
out, and bid the western hinancier good

CRUELTY BEATEN Up
Elderly Man Is SIugged With
a Gas Pipe
BY TWO UNKNOWN MEN
Police Unable to Run Down
His AssaiIants.
Y TWO UNKNOWN MEN

An elderly man named H. Warren was
assaulted and cruelty beaten up by a
couple of tough customers last night
about seven o'ciock in front Of the "Oak
Street barn on North Main street
It seems from thetestimony OF parties
who saw the affair that Warren was
driving north in his wagon and that in
front Of the "oak Street" barn he met
a couple Of men driving q team hitched
to a road wagon. Warren attempted to
drive past the men, between their rig and
the curbing on the west side of the street,
and in some way the whels of the two
vehicles became locked The two men
began 10 curse Warren and called him
few vie names. and he answered back.
and one of the men stated that he would
fix him, and pulled a piece of gas pipe
out from under the buggy and leaned
over and struck Warren several vicious
blows over the head with it. By this
time the fellow that was driving had got
his rig clear Of Warrens wagon and the
two men whipped Up their horses and
turned and started north on Main street
Oficer A NJ SutoE was coming down on
the car ana some one told him that there
was big fight On and he strted TO the
sceie. He met Officer Sam Jones at the
corner Of Central and Main and the two
policemen boarded a car for the scene
Of the fracas. They got there too late
TO catch the men who assaulted the old
man. AS they had long lead and had
turned over 20 Lawrence, at Ninth street,
the officers did not follow them.
Mr.. Warren was in pretty bal shape.
He was knocked down and out of his
wagon and was nearly senseiess, and had
a bad cut over his LETT eye and both
eyes were blackened ana bruised IN a
fearful manner. He did not know the
name of his assaiiart or who the other
man in the buggy was. Mr.. Warren was
taken TO DR.. Caves ofices where his
were dressed, and he went to his
home in the north part Of the city.
Sutton and Jones telephoned TO Police |
man Washburn at the stoelcysrds TO stop
the men. They had already passed his |
beat going north on Lawrence avenue, |
but he secured a horse and buggy and !
chased them for several miles out IN /
the country but they had the speediest |
horses and he had to give Up the chase.

Last evening the Wichita Country club
held a meeting at which there were %
members present. The principal topic
under discussion was the matter of in
creasing its membership. There was con-
siderable discussion pro and con. and a
number Of votes were taken. Under the

ship without limit was carried by ma

and was consequently lost. A motion
was then made TO increase the member
ship to 10 and it carried.

Suggestions Made by a Visitor tc
Wichita.

The following interesting suggestion. IN
regard to the use OF gravel, comes from
a visitor in the city, Mr.. J. ". Anderson
Of 1702 Waco avenue:
To the Editor Of the Eagle
Dear Sir:-Not being a resident OF your
city but being here on a temporary visit
I have been taking IN the situation. It
seems the city has got over the boom
period and things are settling down to
normal state. think see a good place
for investment Of capital that will pay
. per cent on its investment and proba-
bly, more, with an unlimited demand for
the product which could be manufsctur-
ed the year round and would give en-
ployment TO a large number of people and
would be a lasting benefit to all builders.
In taking 4 look over the new mill that
is being built here. I see they are cover
ing the outside with granite roofing. 1t
is certainly q very desirable material, and
has been tried and tested beyond any
doubt. I was looking at the gravel on
Little River today and on inspection 7
fnd you have the finest gravel in the
world, much better than that used on the
mill 1t is made by hydraulic pressure
and q plant could be erected at a small
outlay. I noticed at Independence and
Cherryvale everything IS run by natural
Eas. At both places they are putting up
paper mills 10 use the surplus straw for
making paper. BY using that material
and the gravel you have here in abund-
ance, the roofing could be made cheaper
than at st. Louis or Kansas City or any
other place I merely make this sus-
gestion- 1t is possible you have parties
in your city willing and ready TO invAst
capital but are at a loss 70 know what
10 invest in. and this VIII 90 70 think
about Give It due consideration. Re
specfully, r ". ANDERSON.

Mr.. Pullen says he has as fine wheat as
his neighbors and some of them are
claiming mighty big yields. He says that
he has wheat in the shock that viii go
thirty-1ve bushels to the acre and that
he expects his entire yield to average
twenty-five bushels or better. Mr.. Pull
