prohibit all attempts at Improvement
by the lessee. 1t would seem that the
crop raised on the land would not re-
pGy the tenant for the increased rent
and for the money paid for com
mitting waste. It would appear that
Committing waste" would be OF much
benefit to tho land as the rent would
be raiso0 in proportion to the increas-
ed value of the land and the lessee
would pay for the increase in value
after increasing that value at his own
expense.
"The crying need of the organiza-
tlon is votes, said Mr. Notson With
these we can accomplish cur ends
We want the vote Of every lessee and
of all the people irrespective of poll
tics. If we can get these votes we
can control the legislature and secure
justice for ourselves and children.
AT present the school fund receives
about 2 per cent of the value Of the
land. Under our plan the receipts
would be per cent. Our plan is to
sell the land on 20 years time, with
interest at 6 per cent, land TO revert
to the territory in default of payment
The sale of the lands will be better
for county and territory, as It will DO
away with the loss on taxes to the
county on untaxable school land, be-
ing exempt from taxation, our broth
er homesteader has to keep up the
roads for US under the operation of the
present road law.
The sale OF the land to us on twenty
years time at per cent would be
more secure than a real estate mort
gage as the land would remain the
property Of the territory until all pay
ments are made. He concluded his
remarks amid loud applause.
AS an idea Of the extent of this or
ganization a few statistics win not
come amiss. There are $40 indemnity
schol quarters in this county. and of
the szO,S75 paid by the lessees but 49,
1875 goes to the school fund The diT-
ference, sl7,25O, is lost on salaries.
1t was decided to call territorial
convention to be held in Oklahoma
City on June 2S Preliminary meet
ings in each township viii be held TO
select delegates TO this convention.
Rales we're adopted governing the
selection of these delegates in the
township meetings whereby one dele

IN The GYPSUM Flelps.
Oklahoma Geological Survey is Work.
ing in the Western Counties.

Special 70 Daily Leader.
Ferguson, Okla, June 25.-Ths Ok.
lahoma geological survey now in the
field. are exploring the western coun
ties
The gypsum deposits of Oklahoma
are known to be immense Some one
has estimated that thousand SQUARE
miles in the territory are covered with
this material. There is enough in the
main line of gypsum hills alone to
ease the world for thousand years
still larger deposits are reported from
Greer and Roger Mills counties. No
systematic effort has ever ueen made
to secure definite information as TO
the extent and value of these deposits.
This summer, however. the Oklahoma
geological survey has taken the matter
up. The party left Norman Monday,
June g. to be gone until the time Of
the opening of the University in Sep
tember This time will be devoted
almost exclusively to the study Of Ok
lahoma's gypsum.
Last week the party struck the gyp-
sum hills at their southern limit a
fe wmiles north of Darlington and
walked northwest through Canadian,
Kingtisher and Blaine counties. along
the base of the hills. Geological sec
tions were made a number of places.
demonstrating the fact that the vari-
Gus lodges of gypsum thicken north
erly. Near Altoha the true principal
ledges aggregate thirteen feet in thick
ness, while in the Salt and Bitter
cree kcanyons west OF Ferguson these
same lodges approximately are forty
feet in thickness. Further north in
Woods county they are eve nthicker.
The lodges consist for the most part
OF pure white. solid, massive lodges,
which stand exposed along the tops
of the canyon walls and form escap-
mentS along the nils.
The party tbs year consist of Prof
c. N. Gould. the geologist at the uni
versity and Mr. T. S. Sherwin. an ad-
vanced student, who is specializing in
geological chemistry and who is OH
the field for the purpose of securing
at first hand specimens OF gypsum,
salt. clay, water. ETC.. for chemical
analysis. Later in the season it is ex-
pected that the party will be joined by
other members.
From Ferguson where the party is
now walking, the route will be north
west along the base Of the gypsum
hills beyond the Gloss mountains in
Woods county and possibly even to
Woodward county. From there the sec
ond line of gypsum hills will be traced.
This line OF hills lies in Dewey, Gus
ter. Washlta and Kiowa counties, and
while not so prominent as those just
mentioned farther east, it still con
tains lodges sixty feet and more thick.
Considerable time will be spent in the
southwestern counties. Roger Mills
and Greer. Large deposits of both
salt and gypsum are known to exist
there and an effort will be made TO
