STATE TAX COMMISSION.
New Way to Assess Property 70
Taxation.

Topeka, June 22.-The state tax
revision commission is at work on the
bill revising the tax system of the
state.
The only part of the bill which has
yet been agreed upon is the provision
in regard to the manner of assessing
property. There will be a change
from the system formerly used. The
work of assessing the property will be
under the supervision of county as
SCISSORS who will be elected for term
af four years and be ineligible for re-
election. The county assessors will
appoint deputy assessors for the town
ships, cities of the second class and
wards of cities of the first class in the
county. The deputy assessors will be
removable from Office at the pleasure
of the county assessor and no deputy
assessor will be permitted to assess
property in the township or ward in
which he resides.
There will be a state tax commits
sion consisting of two members and
this commission will have charge of
the entire assessment and taxation OF
property in the state. 1t is expected
that this commission will also be ex-
pected to equalize taxes and do a
great deal of work done by the state
board of equalization.

MANNER OF DRAWING FIXED.
Homes Secured by Drawing in
Place of the Horse Race.
NO DELAY OF THE OPENING.

Washington, June 24.-What has
heretofore been mere matter of spec
ulation relative to the method to be
adopted in opening the Indian lands
in Oklahoma to settlement is now the
fixed decision of the department The
old horse race will be done away with,
and in its place will be tried suitable
method of letting the public select the
lands by drawing. Assistant Com
missioner of the General Land Office
Richards recommends a plan which
provides for double slip of paper on
which an applicants name, address
and other needed information is writ
ten. He is given one slip and the
duplicate is folded and sealed in an
envelope and deposited in a box,
which, when every entry has been
sealed, is sent to Washington. Each
envelope is numbered consecutively, as
received, and each applicant, regard
less of the number who apply. is given
one of the numbered slips of paper.
All the envelopes in the box are then
shaken up and drawing takes place.
The first number out entities the hold
er of the number corresponding with
the number in the envelope to the first
selection of land. the second next, and
so on till as many numbers have been
drawn as there are quarter sections of
land. probably 10, 500. All in excess
of that number draw nothing.
Whatever the plan adopted, it has
been decided that it will be clearly
set forth in the presidents proclama-
ton, together with all other details
touching the subject. 1t is, therefore,
expected that the proclamation will be
an unusually long one.
1t can be stated with all possible
emphasis that the secretary of the
interior is determined to pay no fur
Their attention to the recalcitrant In
dams, but to go on with the opening
without the least DELAY.

Ambrose McKay.s Case.

Rockbridge, Mo-. June 24th:-The
neighborhood and particularly the
members of Rockbridge Lodge, No.
4S5, A. F. & A. NJ, are feeling very
much pleased over the recovery of Mr..
Ambrose Mckay, a prominent citizen
and an honored member of the Mason
ic Fraternity.
Mr.. Mckay had been suffering for
years with Diabetes and rheumatism,
which recently threatened to end his
days. His limbs were so filed with
pain that he could not sleep. He was
very bad.
Just then. someone suggested new
remedy-Dodds Kidney Pills-which
has been much advertised recently, as
a cure for Bright's Disease, Diabetes
Dropsy. Rheumatism and Kidney
Trouble.
After Mr.. Mckay had used a few
doses he commenced to improve. His
pain all left him, and he is almost as
well as ever. He says Dodd's Kidney
Pills are worth much more than they
cost. They are certainly getting a great
reputation in Missouri, and many very
startling cures are being reported.

Washington, June 24.-The interior

Judge Gullette and Mr.. Gilbert, of
Duncan, l. T., are here trying to in
duce the department officials to con-
sent to change in the location of the
big pasture in the Kiowa reservation
located opposite Duncan, which, it is
claimed. shuts Duncan off from all
contact with the newly opened coun-
try. They were escorted to He de-
partment by Delegate Flynn. The
prospects of an alteration in the loca-
ton are practically nil. The Oklahoma
delegation is hopeful of converting a
part of the Wichita mountains into a
national park. If the location can be
made without violation of law, it is
thought that the efforts in that direc-
ton will be successful. The matter is
now under investigation.

PROTEST never SIGNED.
Has the Appearance Of an Whole
sale Forgery.
WHO PUT UP EXPENSE MONEY!

Washington, June 24.-It is now
well understood in Washington how
the signatures were secured to the
memorial which Delos Lone Wolf
brought here. Delos, who was farm
er on the reservation at $50 a month,
left for Washington without permits
sion of the agent, TO accompany his
uncle, Lone Wolf, on his expedition in
search of a method of holding up the
opening. He was promptly reported
to headquarters and discharged.
The Indians found themselves with
out the least authority on their arrival
here and Delos was sent back to the
reservation to secure authority to hire
a lawyer, or at least to bring suit. He
called on Agent Randlett to summon a
council. Randlett complied, but less
than 100 Indians responded. Some
fifty or sixty was the number who
appeared; but among them the chiefs
were conspicuous by their absence
The agent informed the Indians that
they were at liberty to go ahead with
the protest, but they must sign the
memorial in his presence, to enable
him to certify to the department under
his instructions that the signatures
were genuine. Not an Indian signed,
and the council adjourned for that
day, to meet again the next. The In
dams did not return, however, and the
agent was ignorant of what had taken
place until it was announced that 456.
the necessary three-fourths had signed
the memorial There is nothing on
record to show that the names are not
forgerics and the delegation here has
no standing in law. What is pulling
the department officials is the question
who supplied the large delegation with
money to travel to Washington and the
fee wherewith to hire attorneys.
