PROPER VIEW.
Prominent Choctaw Tells Why he
Favors the Moon Bill.

DIR. Harkins, a prominent Choc.
taw OF Coalgate, gives the follsw.
ing very good reasons why he
favors the Moon bill:
''As far as | can observe there
is practically unanimity of sen.
timent favoring the Moon bill. We
contend lat local self-governnent
will be the stepping stone to pros
perity and through the provisions
for representatiC n in congress, en-
able US to discontinue to fight our
battles in the third house, or lobby,
and carry our grievances to the
attention OF the government on the
floor of the house. We will thus
rid ourselves Of being a prey for
designing corporations who retard
our interests in order to advance
theirs.
81 am heartily in favor OF tear
ing loose as far as possible from
departmental rule. With sddi.
tional courts, county government,
suffrage, schools, roads and bridges
Indian territory will work out its
own destiny. A continuation of
present conditions means to re-
tard the development of our great
resources. With self.government,
immigration will follow, bringin g
prosperity to all alike.
II am for the Moon bill
as are great many people
who have taken various views Of
Legislation prior to the inIroduc-
tion OF the Territory Of Jefferson
measure"

missed no opportunity to watch how
it worked. One afternoon, some
time later, grocery cart drew up be-
fore the house, and to the surprise of
the boys mother, began to unload a
large number of bundles. The driver
OF the cart had scarcely finished.

as she could reach the door, started TO

been a mistake on the part of the de-

Mexico has a clever bird called the
melanarpes, which has discovered a
new use for the telegraph pole. AT
the foot of the post this bird makes a
large hole, in which it makes an OBJ
servatory, from which bored holes
permit it to observe the horizon in
every direction; still higher this sa-
gacious bird makes its storehouse
and thus the pole serves as its home,
fortress, and warehouse.
