On the Question of State
hood Held by Senate
Subcommittee at
Guthrie.
SESSIONS
We're Held Yesterday When the
Advocates OF Single and Sepa-
rate Statehood Were Heard
Committee Leaves For
Washington.

A final hearing of the claims q
Oklahoma for admission to state
hood was held by the Senate snb'
committee at Guthrie yesterday.
The committee concluded its ses.
sion early in the afternoon and
left for Washington at'3:30 p. M.
The several delegations were ad-
mitted to the room occupied by
the committee separately, and the
hearings were conducted behind
closed doors.
A delegation consisting OF Judge
Henry Jennings, Postmaster
Breeser, DR.. ]. Quicker, A. L.
Kates and George Eaton, of Clare
more, presented the claims OF the
Indian Territory for political rec.
oenition, and invited the commit.
Tee to attend the single statehood
convention at Claremore Deem.
Der 3.
The addresses of the delegation
were listened to attentively, but
the early departure of the commit
tee for Washington prevented an
acceptance of the invitation to at
tend the convention.
Others who appeared before the
committee were; Sidney Clarke,
chairman ofthe non-partIsan state
hood convention; MayorJ. e. Ball,
of Guthrie; f. H. Greer and Elk
Gov. Barnes.
T. N. Robnett, United States
commissioner. and d. A. Wells, o
Ardmore, representing the Choc
taw and Chickasaw nations, peti
toned the annexation of those ma
tions to Oklahoma, and suggested
that the proceeds from the sale o
the mineral lands could be con
verted into a school fund which
would place them on an equitable
basis with Oklahoma.
The committee was noncommit
tai on all the proposed measures
but appeared deeply interested il
the several propositions offered il
exchange for Acknowledgement.

ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER PRINTED NORTHERN DISTRICT
OSAGE ALLO1 MENT.
Interior Department Seems Disposed
TO Grant Request of Indians.

The Usage Indians desire the al
lotment OF their lands and the
adoption absolutely of the ways of
civilization. They ask that they
be given 100 acres each, and their
leading men have sent to the In
dian Office within the past few days
a number of letters and petitions
praying that this action be taken.
The officers of the government
are disposed to grant their request,
but want proper safeguards thrown
about the operation because the
tribe is the richest in the country.
Most of its members are able to
care tor themselves, but some are
not. These the department will
protect, if the necessary authority
for dividing the lands can be se-
cured.
The tribesmen now number
about 1900, and eventually, when
their holdings are all divided,
each will receive no less than 1000
acres. The division now proposed
however, is in lots OF 100 acres
each, awaiting the 6nal disposition
of their tribal affairs and the divi-
sion Of their funds. The Usage
fund in the treasury draws 5 per
cent interest, which the govern
ment is obliged to pay under an
old treaty made with the tribe.
The 100 mem mbers are squalown-
ers Of this fund, which now
amounts to between 88, 900, 900 and
SO, 100000.

The hosannahs Of Bethlehem we're
echoed yesterday In Omaha The refrain Of
the angels was caught up by those nearest
like them, the children. and by choirs Of
the devout. Peace there was. and good will.
For It was that holy day in which the
great and the obscure, the fortunate and the
unfortunate. the aged and the youthful, felt
a common interest. II was that one holl-
day which Christian people everywhere rec
ognlEe and generally observe. II was Christ
mas.
Not, perhaps, an ideal Christmas, because
the thermometer registered nearly zero and
little snow was left upon the ground, but a
Christmas which had at least the virtue Of
q sunny sky and a clear, crisp air. A
Christ1-Ns which made the family iyesidc
the most enticing of places and kept CID
and young together under the sarne roof,
no matter how humble or how ornate that
roof might be.
At the churches there was one grand
ehours OF praise and rejoicing, sung in many
keys and many measures, but always with
the note OF reverent jubilation dominant
and with such arrangement that this note
might well from every soul. Congrega-
tions content to listen through the year de-
mand to lead on Christmas day.
At the jalls supposedly the churches op-
posite, there was no choir and there was
no preacher, but there were prayers, there
were psalms and there were sermons, the
latter preached by kindly people who
reached the erring heart by the alimentary
canal and taught the gospel Of charity,
forgiveness and good cheer
At the doors OF those OF scanty purse
Knocked latter-day Samaritsns, who called
not to reprove, but to encourage and to
sooth The Salvation Army alone cared
for $50 families with its burdened baskets.
Plenty for the ~OOr.
Others OF the Samaritan tribe labored
at fixed centers OF congregating From 10
in the morning until 10 at night plenty
burdened long tables at the Newsboys'
home and all we're free to share. At the
Tenth Street City mission there was min
istration to those who must be taught by
charity how different is good from evil and
how open the hand OF the truly godly.
At the county farm a number OF those
who remember the needs that others for
get gave a concert and entertainment sup
Elementary to the dinner given by the SUI
perintendent.
And in a hundred OF other places that
the public knows not of and never will
know of were other acts Of kindness, small
and great. but all because it was Christ
mas, the day OF peace and good will. En-
ployers gave armies OF employees remem-
brances, feathered and unfeathered, and
the employees in turn gave their employers
tokens OF a kindly feeling The warm bird
Is ever incidental to the warmed hand and
the warmed heart
In order that others might spice their
meals with laughter the stage folk did
double duty, but as recompense received
gifts by the wagon load, and at the Boyd
were banqueted by their managers after
the night performance.
