STATUS OF CLAIMS
Mace Clear by District Attorney
p. l.. Soper, who Explains
What Property Rights may be
Obtained, aud the Limita
iions Placed upon Aliens.

The legal tangle, that surrounds
the title to any property, near the
scene Of the late. oil strike at Red
Fork, has caused speculators, TO
delay investing. with the result
that the boom prices that were at
first offered for the titleless land,
have dropped to low water mark.
The seeming confusion of opin-
ions as 10 the exact laws govern
ing the title question in the Greek
nation. has led The Chieftain 10
obtain the opinion of District At
tofney Pliny l.. Soper, on the
mootsd point.
Mr.. Soper very kindly consent
ed to unravel the tangle for the
benefit Of .Chieftain readers, and
in an interview. gave the follow
ing synopsis Of the property rights
that can be obtained.
"At the present time" said Mr..
Soper, "a one years lease of 100
acres OF land is all that can be OBJ
tanned from any Greek citizen by
an alien. When, however, any
citizen Of the Greek nation shall
have had his title certificate 20 his
allotment. Issued by the Dawes
commission. be can anytime be-
fore the expiration OF five years
sell 100 acres subject to the ap-
proval of the secretary of the in
terror. The remaining 40 acres is
inalienable. AT the expiration Of
FIVE years. be IL free to disrose OF
100 acres. without any restrictions
Whatever.
"This does not include however,
the tract OF 160 acres. which has
been set aside by the Dawes COM
mission for a iownsite for Red
Fork, which at present, is not an
incorporated town.
No citizen can sell OF dispose Of
any part of this land except i'm
provements thereon, that were
placed thereon prior to its reserv-
alton as townsits.
This land stands as public.do-
mains Of the Greek nation, and
the intercourse act fixes the pen
atty for the disposal Of any part Of
it at $1,000"
This should show to any pros
pective purchaser that a cloudy
title is very easily obtained in the
new oil fields, and that clear titles
are ns scarce a. recent reports
show the product to be.

Two negro whIsky introducers,
Joe Nelson and Ed Fulsom, by
name, were probably fatally
wounded in battle with Deputy
Marshal Pies Thompson, at. Is
land Ford, on Grand river, early
yesterday morning. The men
were returning from Southwest
City with load of contraband
stuff when halted by the officer,
who was searching for them.
They Immediately reached for
their guns, but before Nelson, who
was armed with a shotgun, could
raise the piece. the deputy bad
shattered his arm with shot from
his Winchester.
The companion of the man, had
opened up at short range, with a
revolver, but went down, as ball
from the officers rife, plowed
through the upper portion of hrs
body. Another shot from the rifle
struck Nelson, in the abdomen.
ccursing straight through his body.
and inflicting a mortal wound.
Both men, bad leaped, from the
wagon, which they we're driving,
after the first shot was fired, and
Nelson, nearly disemboweled,
by the deadly soft-nosed bullet,
plunged into the river in a desper-
ate attempt 10 escape. His COM
panion. Fulsom, crawled into
neighborng thicket, to escape the
deadly fire OF the officer, and for a
while. the deputy feared that his
quarry had escaped him.
A trail of blood, soon disclosed
the hiding place of Fulsom, who
was rapidly bleeding to death
from a CHASTITY woundi in the chest.
1t is supposed that the lung was
punctured by the deadly missile,
and the man is not expected to
live.
Crossing the river, the officer
discovered the blotches of blood
that led to the point, where Mel
son had succumbed to the loss Of
blood, from the fearful wound in
his abdomen, and lay apparently
dead.
The men were removed to the
homes Of some negroes, in the
neighborhood. where it was dis
covered that Nelson was still
alive. His death is expected at
any moment.
The wounds sustained by Full
sum, are also expected TO result
fatally.
An examination of the wagon,
the men were driving. disclosed
an eight gallon demijohn of
whisky.
Before leaving for Southwest
City where the liquor was pur-
chased, Nelson bad boasted to
some negroes that he would ar
rive back with il if he had to kill
someone to accomplish it.

Gave a Few Thumps for Luck.

But Mir Foraker Is not one to give in easily He drowned again, bit his lip and dashed his fist ferociously against the door, Then he listened and thought he heard faraway chuclle on the other side His scrowl grew deeper and he rat tied the doorknob impotently, conscious that a group of newspaper men. sworn to secrecy about the correct fraternity knock. were regarding him gravely and that the secretary's men were chuckline on the other side.
 Then Mir. Foreaker stepped away and thought for a moment. His anger over came him, and he decided to return and give few hammers on the doors just to express his opinion of it. Accordingly he raised his fist and gave-it would never do to tell how many knocks he gave, or in what way he gave them, but he knock ed in an unusual way. This was simply because he was angry.
 As the last knock rang out an answer ing knuckle sounded on the inside. MT. Foreaker. deeming this mere sarcasm, hit the door again. To his intense astonish- pent it flew open and lowing attend ant stood before him, inviting him to the secretary's presence. He had accidently hit on the right knock. AS for the at tendant who had supposed it to be a War Department clerk, he was dunn. founded
 Walk right in, Senator" he gasped And as the Senator vanished in the sec retary's room he caught the words:
 How did he ever learn that knock?''
 MT Foraker came out of the secretaEy's room beaming all over. after a most sat. isfactory interview. He has done some thing that few other visitors have ao- complained Only one thing bothers hin now-he wishes he could remember that knock.

San Luis Obispo. Cal, May TO- The route of the Presidents train was north ward from Los Angeles valley. where 1t ran for hours along the edge of cliffs overhanging the Pacific ocean.

 At Santa Barbara President Mckinley made the principal address of the day. After expressing his gratitude for the reception accorded him and commenting on tho cosmopolitan character of the as- sembly, the President said:
 My Fellow Citizens: What a splendid civilization comes out of the old states and from the old nationalities that are represented here today, the best civiliza- tion in the world; a civilization based upon liberty. upon equality, upon self government and civilization that leads wherever this civilization goes. 1t carries the ark of freedom
 "Our liberty, our freedom, our sense of justice, are not extinguished in any cline, globe or land, and here facing the Pacific am reminded that this ark of liberty has moved out into this great ocean,"
 Referring to the Spanish war he con- tinued:
 AS the result of that war we are in the Philippines, and we don't mean to come away (great applause and cheer ing), and we mean to give to these dis tant people what we gave to California more than fifty years ago, the blessings of security and liberty"
 An unusual incident occurred during the Presidents stay at Santa Barbara. The residence of the chief of the fire bri- gade caught fire.

THE YOUNGER scHwAR GOT BACK
He Has Grit and Push Second Only to
 the Great Ma1nate's.

From the Saturday Evening Post
 When Charles NJ. Schwab president of the Carnegie Steel Company, at the age ot 23, was placed in charge of tho Homestead p1ant-then the largest steel plant in the world--he found one of the departments in charge of his younger brother, who also had worked up from the bottom. AS soon as things had settled down and he had grasped all the details of the business, MT. Schwab sent for his brother and said:
 "It so happens that have come into Il controlling position. You have not. Hereafter, no matter what are your merits. your chance of advancement and promotion will be very poor. If you are put ahead, no matter how mer- itorious such promotion may be, every body will say: It is because of your brothers position. The very best thing you can do is to get out and start all over again somewhere else"
 The younger Schwab required only a moment to make up his mind.
 All right" he said, T will go, but the time will come when you folk will be mighty glad to have me back"
 The brothers, who are great chums, shook hands warmly, and the younger started out with nothing except the prestige of having been five years with the Carnegie Company, and of having worked his way unaided to the head of one of the big departments. This rec ord was sufficiently strong to procure him at once an opening in one of the rival concerns-the Midyale Steel Com pany. Inside of two years he had worked his way up to be general man. ager, and he made himself felt as the most active competitor of the Carnegie Company.
 So strong did he become in this po- sition that the condition he had prophesied came to pass. The Carne- gie Company, through H. c. Prick, who was then president, made him an of fer of a partnership to come back. After some deliberation he accepted the offer, and he is now the general manager of one of the main Carnegie 1 plants.

Mormonism and old Age.

From the Denver News.
 The ripe old age to which the presi- dents of the Mormon Church have lived is d noticeable fact Brigham Young died at the age of 76 years. His sue cessor, President Woodruff, lived to be 91 years old. President Snow, who succeeded Woodruff, has just celebrat- ed his S7th birthday. Apostle Cannon who has just died, was "A years old. The Mormons have now been f1fty-five years in Utah, and many of the pioneers who made the exodus across the plains in 1S46-47 among them not a few of the church leaders, still sur viye, at ages ranging from 10 to 90 years. In stating the fact, the News win leave others to account for 1t. This longevity of the Mormon pioneers Is certainly remarkable, and perhaps some pious Mormons will ascribe 1t to the practice of polygamy. This can well be doubted. The real explanation possibly is that these men were Of a sturdy physical nature, which was strengthened and developed by their early life on the plains and in their intermountain territory. Their out door life and exercise, their freedom from many of the vices of civilization the pure air and faithful climate or the Salt Lake Valley, the somewhat placid agricultural and pastoral life led in the early days, may all be considered as influences which have had an effect on Mormon existence. Be the causes wha, they may. the fact is an interesting pne and might become an object ol interesting inquiry among those whe solve the relations of climate, altitude religion and social and marltai eh vironments in the duration or human life.
