Vinits, 1. T., Aug. 5.-Those
who are In favor Of the annexa-

vinita, l T., Leader. They have
law for their plans. The organic
act of Oklahoma which was en-
acted into law by congress, May
dian Territory not embraced with
In these boundaries shall hereafter
become a part of the territory of
Oklahoma whenever the Indsan
nation or tribe owning such lands
shall signify to the president OF
the United States il legal manner
its assent that such lands shall SO
become a part Of said Territory ci
thereupon make proclamation to
that effect.
This is the paint. 1t applies with
2, 1890, expressly provides;
When the interest Of the Cher
Okee nation in the land known
as the Cherokee nation soutlet
shall have been extinguished and
the president shall make prociama
tion thereof, said outlet shall
thereupon and without further
legislation, become part of the
Territory Of oklahoma.
And other lands within the In
dian Territory. The ChIckasaw
single statehood promoters, how
ever, seem to have overlooked
this law. The better course for
them to pursue in order to obtain
statehood at the earliest date
would be for them to have the
legislature of the Chickasaw ma
tion pass a bill asking for annex
alton to Oklahoma.-State Cap

No FRISCO DEAL

Terms of The Reported
Sale.
is NOT ACCEPTED
And it May Not Materialive AT
ter All The Talk And
Predictions

New York. Aug. 6.-From men
interested IN Rock Island reorgan
ization it is learned that the delay
in accepting the terms offered to
Moore Bros and the Rock Island
for taking overof the Frisco line is
due entirely to misunderstanding
as to whether the market or par
value of railroad stock should be
considered the basis OF the deal.
1t Is learned that this is a serious
question, as considered by Frisco
stockholders, and posi- bly, may
lead 10 the withdrawal of all op-
tions already given and the sever
ing OF any deal which may have
been considered. 1t appears that
when offer was first made, the
point was pot clearly defined as
to WHETHER the market price or
the par value of the stock should
form the basis Of the transaction.
Much to the surprise Of the Rock
Island owners the Frisco stockhol-
ders insisted on the most advant
ageous bargain and this caused a
complete disturbance 10 the reIat-
ions which it was supposed had
been already formed. 40 prediction
as to the outcome can now be haz-
arded. 1t may be two weeks before
the interests involved are fully
decided.

THE LORE OF RARE COINS
Some Frealxish Mintnge by United
States Government

Some FreaIxish Mintage by United
states Government.
From the Washington Post.
The coinage of an American "a gold
piece has probably excited more mail
inquiry from Mr.. A. e. Preston, d.
rector of the mint. than any or all the
other coinage of the United States. The
minting of the coin was authorized by
the Coinage Committee of the House of
Representatives in 1878. as also what
is termed the goloid dollar and gold
metric dollar. The goloid dollar, SO
called, is composed of one part gold
and twenty-four parts silver, making a
total of twenty-five parts, nine-tenths
fine and weighing 258.
The gold metric dollar (of 1879 is
also composed of one part gold, but has
1871 parts silver and 10 parts copper,
making a total of 10 parts, and is in
weight 14.2 grammes, while the stand
ard metric dollar of 1879 contains S95. 8
parts silver, Az parts gold, 100 copper
making total Of 1000 and the weight
of the coin 25 grammes.
The Stella or 81 gold coin, which be-
longs to this authorized series, con-
tains six grammes of pure gold, maxi
ing total of seven grammes. There
were but 450 of each of these coins
struck, and they were distributed
among the members of Congress and
a few officials. the price for the series
being 1918 coin of the realm. IT is
easily inferred that none of the coins
are in circulation. nor will the United
States pay their face value for them.
as stated by Director Preston. The
presentation of these coins by their
several holders in different parts of the
country accounts for the numerous
mail inquiries addressed to the director
of the mint as to their genuineness and
also by numismatists, who desire to
purchase specimens for their collec-
tons
In fact. 1t is from this latter class
that the greater part of the Inquiries
come AS but few people outside the
students or devotees of numlsnatics
know aught of the coinage in question.
IL Is presumed that some of the origf-
nal holders of the pieces parted with
them to friends as presents, and these
presents or souvenirs being exhibited
by the grateful recipients. has given
rise 10 the supDosition that the mint
issued them in large quantities as a cir
cuIating medium.
There Is "A popular Illusion as 10 the
value OF old and rare coins. OF which
numismatists In the business for profit
naturally take advantage. Few know
that copper coins OF certain dates Will
sell for 100 times more 10 the collector
Of coins than gold piece OF the same
date. or that an American cent with
the date 1885 viii bring a better price
