that the report that he is interested in
the project to build railroad up Fall

any one has any idea of putting road

that connection with that enterprise.

4 DISGRACE TO OKLAHOMA.
(Chandler Trlbune.l

The reports of the wholesale rob
berry end murder which have character
izel the opening OF the new country,
especially about Lawton and Anadar-
ko, are enough to cause he oldest
Oklahoman to shudder. In all the OPP
enlngs put Together which have talk
en- place in Oklahoma no such scenes
Of lawlessness have been enacted.
More people have been killed, more
have been robbed and more cutthroat
sure hing gambling going on IN the
ten days since that lite spot Of
ground was opened than took place in
oklahoma proper in two years and
yet thai was opened practically with
GU. law. AT least there was no law
to prevent gambling, forgery, arson
and a number Of other crimes and yet
IN two years of history there were
a less number Of crimes committed
than there has been in the new coun-
try. The same may be said OF the
opening Of the Iowa, Sac and Fox, and
Pottowat ONE reservations, the Chey-
enc and Araphoe reservations and in
deed Of the entire strip.
Why Is this? What IS the reason
The sure thing games have fourished
and lawlessness run rife in the Kio.
wa and Comanche country? We be-
lieve that the entire fault lies with
the OFFICERS. From experience OF hay-
ing charge Of matters at the open

gated here to await The opening OF

Now If Governor Barnes action

ent action creating vacancies would

kins could interfere. 1t will Of course
be claimed that the appointment Of

the effect to vacate the old committee.
But i1 does. nos seem that Gov. Jen-
kins, or any other governor, bad any
authority under the act TO appoint a
committee, at all, after ninety days,
unless 4. might be, by implication, to

and hair in the drawing. The crimin-
al who lay in a prisons cell was equal

family, was willing to ill the soil and
make the new country blossom as
the rose"
We will take for example the Asa
C. Sharpe case. Sharpe was tried be-
fore a jury of his peers and found
guilty OF bribery while agent Of the
Ponca indians. He was sentenced TO
four years in the penitentiary and
S1,5OO fine. He appealed the case
and was admitted to bail. He regis
tered at Ei Reno. He drew number
fifteen n the Lawton district. He ap-
peared to file and secured claim
within three miles of Lawton with
ninety acres of cultivated land, ~
house and wire fence. Today he is
a criminal ulder sentence and also
a pretended farmer in ihe new coun-
try. while the "old man" and his wife,
children, chickens and dog are wend-
ing their way back from whence they
started, disfranchised from settling
upon a piece Of government land which
the constitution and the law is pre-
sumed to entitle them to. This is the
lottery and the law which a republican
administration inaugurated and eG
forced without the consent of the
congress Of the United States. This

no lawlessness should be committed.
They knew that the guard house and
military guard awaited them and
they acted like decent people and no
one was held up by highwaymen or
fieeced by the sure hing men,
There was a disposition shown by
two or three deputy marshels who
we're here to turn their backs and hold
their hands behind them, but they
soon found that they couldn't play
that soft of a game and became as
decent as The sure thing men were.
It didn't take an uprising OF the
people to suppress the lawlessness
as it did at Lawton, where there were
jus, as many officers and stronger
force Of U. S. regulars from the very
start than were at the Chandler open
ing.
Then why has the territory been so
disgraced and her hitherto untarnish-
ed name been hlaekened with the op-
en- laYlessness over thereP
Can it be that the governor has been
careless in the selection of officers =?
Can he have selecl ed such men as
would turn their backs on lawless-
ness providing the grafters pay the
proper tribute. Knowing many of
those whose business 1t was to see
that the laws were enforced as we do,
we fully believe that the latter is the
cause Of it all, and think that If the
governor desired to investigate the
matter fully enough he would find
cause for a removal of a whole lot OF
his appoinlees down there as well as
cause for making a demand on u. S.
Marshal Thompson that a great part
Of his army of deputies he summarily
removed and punished for conspiracy.
We may be mistaken-all these
officers may have striven to enforce
the laws and were prevented from do
ing by the U. S. army instead Of be-
ing aided by the soldiers in the sup
preston Of crime. But as we said
above, our experience has taught us
that with force of U. S. marshals
who viii be honest in their fealty and
q few U. S. regulars at the back of an
honestly inclined and stir backboned
executive or judicial officer and fair
sized army of sure thing men and
thugs can be converted for a time
into very quiet and law abiding citi-
zens. They generally know the men
with whom they have to deal and Il
money will reach them they ply their
trade with impunity and If not they
nine times out Of ten behave them
selves.
