OF the commissions field force be-

The explanation offered by III.
G. Hack bush, chief OF the engin-
eeiipg department when sum-
moned before the commission to
explain how the records were OBJ

not satisfactory and he was sum-
marily dismissed from the service.
One of the most interesting features
of the spreading scandal that
threatens TO involve those of

able effort of the Muskcgee press
to throw its transparent cloak

defensive efforts in their verv i'm

of dependant press which pre-.

MOON BILL OPPOSED
BY Committee on Indian Affairs
While the Measure Introduced
by Curtis Will be Fought
by the Committee on
Territories.

The committee on territories
and the committee on Indian af-
fairs of the house have locked
horns upon the proposition Of
creating territorial form of gov
ernment for Indian terr Itory. The
difference arises over the degree
of territorial form OF government
which should be established. The
committee on territories will re
port favorably the bill introduced
by Representative Moon, creating
full fedged territorial govern
ment. The sub committee, which
has charge of the bin will report it
back to the full committee within
the next week with a favorable
recommendation. The bill, as il
will be reported from the commit
tee on territories will provide for
the appointment of a governor by
the president who will have full
executive authority, the appoint
ment OF a secretary Of state. a
treasurer, auditor and superin-
tendent OF public instruction, and
creating legislature, to consist
of two houses, styled respectively,
the senate and house of represent
atives, to be elected yy qualified
voters in the territory.
Provisions for general elections
is made and for the qualification
of electors. Rules and regulations
governing the Legislative assembly
are also defined by the bill, to-
gether with the boundary of sena-
torial and legislative districts. A
full judiciary is created, and the
territory is given representation in
the national congress by a dele
gate to be elected by a majority of
the qualihed voters.
The members of the COMMITTEES
on Indian affairs are opposed to
the bill favored by the committee
on territories for many reasons.
The most important objections
that they have is that ii will open
the way to the creation OF two
states out OF Oklahoma and Indian
Territories.
The leading members of the
committee on Indian affairs be-
lieve they have remedy which
will cure existing evils complained
of in the territory in bill intro
Juced by Congressman Curtis. pro-
viding for a limited territorial
form of government. That bill
authorizes the appointment OF
governor by the president, by and
with the advice and consent Of the
senate, secretary of state, and
gives the territory representation
in the national congress through
delegate TO be duly elected BY the
people. The governor under the
Curtis bill, will be "superintend-
ent Of Indian affairs" in the terri
cory and also ex-0ficio chairman

There are Beers in South Africa, and
there is boor III Congress. His name
is Wheeler and he mis- represents the
first district of Kentucky. We say
misrepresents, because Kentucky pro-
duets have generally been supposed to
include gentlemen as well as beautiful
women, race horses and Whiskey. 1t is
the misfortune OF the Democracy that
Wheeler belongs to that party. and it is
only Just to say that Lis harangue in
the House last Friday, i'll which he
assailed the President, the Presidents
daughter the Secretary of State, and
referred insultinglv to our coming
guest, Prince Henry of Germany, is
condemned by Democrats as well as by
Republicans. A more unjudicious, un-
called for, ungentlemanly speech has
not been heard in Congress for years.
And Wheeler is native of Kentucky!
He must be changing, or Kentucky
blood has become impoverished and her
sons DEGENERATE.
