The national party of Coowee-
scoowee district, believes that

question tc be considered in the
election Of men to transact our Of.
fetal business; that men who are
utter failures socially, morally,
mentally, and financially, should
never be chosen as guardians and
administrator OF a common ee-
tate amounting to millions OF
dollars, with thousands Of heirs;
that every man, woman and child
who is bona fide citizen, has a
common interest in and to the
land, and moneys OF this country,
and for their protection and ben
eft, We favor a legal and equit'
able division Of every acre of land
and every dollar 10 money, be-
longing to them.
That every citizen might be
privileged to use his own as he de-
sires, we favor the allotment oi
thanksgiving to each and every
allottee, the best title that can be
procured-that OF fee simple to
HE or her pro rata share.
That this end might be ac-
complished, we favor the goth

That the nominees Of the ma

El Reno, Ok, July 24.-The
thousands of homeseekers who
will be disappointed in not draw
ing a lucky number calling for l6O
acres OF land IN the new country
can console themselves with the
fact that as good, and, in many
instance g, better lands will be

about 10000 acres in indemnity

farms can be added $500 Iudian

OIL PIRATES FIND
Friend in Secretary Hitchcock
Who Has Notified the Tribal
Authorities That He Advo-
Gates Giving Lease For 1900
Acres of Valuable Oil Lands
to the Company.

Washington, d. c., July 21.-'
Secretary Hitchcock has instruct
ed the commissioner of Indian af.
fairs to notify the representatives
oi the Cherokee nation and r. c.
Adams aud Walter S. Logan, at
torneys for the Delaware Indians,
that upon applicf .,ion and proof
submitted he is inclined to grant
the Cherokee OIL and Gas com
paDy csriain lra ses for oil lands H.
the Cherokee T alton and to reject
I other applioai ions submitted by
the company. The attorneys for
the Cherokee and Delaware In
dians will be- given thirty days in
which to file briefs in opposition
to the grar ting of the leases.
The original application of the
Cherokee Oil and Gas company
was for 100000 acres Of land. Lat.
er 1t was reduced to 10000, and
still later to less than 100000
acres. The leases which the Sec
retary is inclined to approve cover
a lnHle less than 1900 acres 10.
Gale d in the Delaware con utry.
The fight against the rafting Of
/ the sc leases has been a bitter one,
To Indians having contested the
granting G OF any leases at all times
and have thus far succeeded. Re-
Gently there have been indications
that the officials of the Cherokee
nation will acquiesce in the APP
proval o. certain leases, providing
they were confined to Delaware
lands. This has caused the at.
torneys for the Delawares, Walter
S. Logan and r. G. Adams, to
redouble their efforts TO prevent
the consummation Of this deal,
which would tall on the Della
wares and not on the Ch herokees.
