WOUNDS FATAL.
Man Wounded On Katy Ex-
CurslOn Sunday Is Re-
ported Dead.

A report from Mineral Tuesday
morning states that one Of the men
who was wounded on the Katy ex.
oursion Sunday and who was taken
of at that place had succumbed 10
his wounde. The unfortunate man
was not a resident Of Mineral but
vas taken of there for medical
treatment. 1t is said that his
home is in the territory.
The railroad company has been
severely condemned for not taking
proper precautions to control the
crowd which they knew would 90
on the excursion and which in the
light Of past events they knew
would be an unruly one.
The rel orts sent out 10 regard
TO the excursion have injured the
territory materially. One which
has appeared in the metropolitan
press states that four men were
killed and many others wounded,
The accounts are in line with the
lurid STUFF which is sent from some
territory correspondents and il
very damaging to this section.
An effort will be made TO bring
sufficient pressure on the railroad
companies to either discontinue
the Sunday excursions entirely OF
to compel them 10 offer adequate
protection TO the passengers iron

now chose between the least Of two
evils, and accept the less. There
is no question but that the agree

It's Act, and there is no question
but that we are forced to take one

remembering that our all is at
stake-that the homes, hopes and
happiness Of our people depend
on our acceptance Of this the last
proffered agreement by congress.
The Standard is not here TO tell
you that il is perfect; that il is en-
tirely just; for that would be mis-.

this instrument would save to cur

WEAK OBJECTIONS

In an article published in this
weeks Leader and signed "Chero.
kee," and which we re publish
here, there is line of about the
thinnest fallacy ever put into print
in ihe Cherokee Nation The OBJ
jeotions to tho allotment bill in
this article are classified, and the
fret one is the base statement that
the proposed measure does not
deal in a spirit of fairness. There
is no effort to support this remark
able deliverance aud, Of course, it
falls heavily to the ground. The
second is also "fearfully and
wrongfully made" This objsc-
ton is that "the allottee is com.
PEELED to take the land at its true
value" How should it be taken7
Ought it not be taken at lis true
value2 Will any one contend for
q fictitious value
The most preposterous and un.
warranted statement is thStit gives
even other section to the rail.
roads. II does nothing Of the kind.
The CHIEFTAIN will pay 500 in
cash to any one who can show that
the proposed measure makes any
such statement, or anything that
can be tortured into such meaning.
That statement is absolutely and
totally untrue, aud no man has a
right to thus attempt to mislead
the voters Of this country.
The ninth objection is that the
writer don't want to be fined OF
imprisoned for excessive land hold.
ings. No one blames him for not
wanting to go TO Jail.
The tenth says it disposes oi
our public funds in too reckless a
manner. 1t don't dispose of them
at all, except to pay our public
debt already provided for and
agreed to by the Cherokee council.
The eleventh is purely q ground.
less and senseless insinualion that
the bill was drawn up in Vinita,
and finishes this wonderful screed
with bewsiling the fact that Cher.
okee women are not.voters, fact
chargable to the lawmakers alone,
as the treaty prohibits no qualified
voter from voting.
The article lacks the one great
essential-truth-from beginning
to end, and is a weak, puerile and
aSsinine attempt at a defense o. q
position that cannot be defend ded
intelligently. 1t ought to be printed
and sent out, along with the bill,
that comparison may be made.
Anyone who will read the bill (and
most people have read iD, will see
the utter shallowness Of its state
ments.

Objections to the PROPOSED Treaty


First. Because il does not deal
in a spirit Of fairness.
Second. 1t appraises the land
exclusive of improvement, and
compels the alloltee to take II at
its true value.
Third. This is not the case with
town lots. They may be taken,
where the occupancy has been OBJ
tanned by tribal law, for one. fourth
their appraised value, when i'm
proved, and when not improved
for one.half their appraised value;
and when the occupancy has not
been secured from the nation by
tribal law, for one.half the ap.
praised value when improved, to
citizens, only, aad full value to all
others. This is not right. These
lots should be appraised and paid
for, as other allotsble lands, at
their true value, and the owner
be compelled to take them in the
way Of an allotmeni;or they should
be sold to the highest bidder and
the money equally divided among
the citizens Of the Nation. Those
who have lots outside Of tho sur
vey have to take them as an allot-
ment at full value, or give them up
TO some one else and be compelled
to pay an enormous expense to
move their improvements 10 lands
allotted TO them elsewhere.
Fourth. II ssgregates too much
land from allotment.
Fifth. Ilgives too much to rail. 4.
roads. The same amount that
they get in the various states Of
the American union should be suf-
dcient for them here, and they
should be compelled to pay for the
land thus acquired.
Sixth. II gives the alternate
sections Of land throughout the
cherokee Nation to these railroads,
and our citizens located thereon
with their homes and improve.

there is not time for this; but il
does urge the Cherokee people to
ratify it with all its objections and
vagueness in preference to taking
the Curtis Act, which only gives
us a surface right to our lands,
leaving the bowels to the prey Of
oil syndicates and schemers. The
agreement gives us our land from

Seventh. There is too much
land reserved for schools, ,churcnes,
and other purposes. Our property
would be taxed just the sane to
keep up free schools for whites
and Cherokees alike, virtually
amounting to the payment of two
taxes b. the Cherokees.
Eighth. The one hundred and
ten acres in value is not satisfac-
tory, as it does not fix any valua-
tion in the treaty.
Ninth. We do not want tn be
fined nor imprisoned on the &C.
count Of not knowing the valua.
tion Of our lands, as we might un-
Willingly hold possession Of too
much land on this account.
Tenth. 1t disposes of our pub

holds our council together too un-.
necessarily long.
Eleventh. What was our portly

The disgrsceful scenes on the
Katy excursion yesterday should
put an end to Sunday excursions
FROM the territory. The railroad
officials have shown that they can
offer no protection to orderly pas
sengers by surrendering their
trains to gang Of c)wardly hood
lums. A few determined men
with authority would put a quielus
on such things in a very few min.
utes, but the railroad company has
not demonstrated that it ever in
tended to offer any serious opposi.
tion TO the drunken mob which
they knew would crowd the cars.
These excursions are a disgrace TO

The rolls have been closed; we

There is no getting around allot

you a home with title. e.--Stillwell
