LEASE INSPECTOR
Provided For in Bill Passed by
the Creek Council.

One Of the most important acts
Of the Greek council, which has
Just concluded its annual session
was the passage OF a bill providing
for the appointment by the chief
Of an inspector Of leases.
1t is made the duty OF the in
spector to pass upon all leases
made by citizens Of the Creek ma
ton, and no lease VIII be legal un-
iii il has been submitted to him,
approved and recorded. This act
also affects all leases now In opera
tion. il made from Creek citizens.
The importance Of the measure
lies in the fact that three-fourths
Of the land of the Greek nation Is
already under lease and will be
until 1906. Some attorneys say
the, act il unconstitutional, and u
must be approved by the resi-
dent. If it becomes effective, lease
holders will be at the mercy OF ths
lease inspector.

SINGLE STATEHOOD PROSPERITY TO INDIAN TERRIT{
HOW THEY STAND.
Quay and Hanna VIII Be the Leaders
OF Opposing Forces In statehood
Fight.

Friends OF the statehood bill are
now asserting that despite the fact
that the president failed 10 say
anything about the question 10 blr
message, be favors the admission
OF the new territories at this ses
sion. Senator Hanna has come
forward as manager for the oppo-
nents of statehood. Mr.. Quay and
Mr.. Hanna thoroughly dislike
each other and the contest pro
misses to be all the more spirited
on that account.
It is claimed that Quay has en-
listed several eastern senators un-
der the statehood flag, who hereto
fore have not definitely announced
their positions.
The opinion is gaining ground
that no s,ateh ood Legislation will
be enacted by the present con-
gress.

Majority Of AI|ottees Are Ask
ing for Readiustment On
Their AlIotments.
LAND APPRAISERS
Were Either incompetent or Very
Careless Field Force Sent
Out From Muskogee To
Make Adjustments Of
Appraisements.

Owing to the protests OF ma
iority of the allottees in the Cher
okee nation as to the grades at
which their allotments are ap-
praised, the Dawes Commission
yesterday dispatched field force
to the different districts for the
purpose Of making adjustments OF
the appraisements
The members Of the field party
are: John Thomas, Jim Gibson,
Joe Gibson, Nose Lyons, w. II
Angel, Capt. Hackbush, II. q.
Kessler, w. s. Hawkins, N. X.
Baker, J. Q. Wilkerson, Homer
Needles, Thos. Farrer, and -
Stewart.
The work Of the original APP
praisers showed every evidence
Of either absolute incompetency or
gross careleseness Without re-
gard to the character OF the soil,
thsY graded the land in hap
hazard manner, their only object
apparently TO complete the duties
Assigned them with as little labor
las possible. AS CONSEQUENCE the
commission has been sooded with
protests from allottees, whose
land was appraised at much
higher grade than the character OF
the soil justified. In some in
stances the other extreme was
reached and land OF high grade
was appraised and pl aced In the
lower grades.
1t is estimated that two thirds
of the allottees have filed protests
with the commission.

POLICE HAD OTHER
CLAIMS ON HAUSER
Wan Here for JUMPING q
Board Bill More Mis-.
deeds Reported.

Policeman Arnold Zimmerman re-
turned Saturday noon from Warren,
o., where he took Edwin Hauser, who,
it is alleged, impersonated a secret
service official and under this guise
confiscated money which he said was
counterfeit.
Policeman Zimmerman also had an
ether warrant against the man for
jumping a board bill and If Hauser
had not been held by the United
States commissioner at Warren he
would have been arrested on this war
rant and brought back to Canton to
answer to that charge.
Policeman Zimmerman in speaking
of the case said that Hauser, when
brought before the commissioner,
seemed to be well acquainted with the
law and the prosecuting attorney was
unable to obtain any information from
him as to his actions. Since the
mans arrest several other people have
reported to the police that he confis-
Gated money, claiming that it was
counterfeit.

WORLDS GREATEST
SW|NDLERS CAUGHT
IN MADRID TODAY
The Humber Of France
Have at Last Been
Taken.
ARREST Causes SENSATION IN PARIS

News Democrat Leased Wire Service.)
Paris, Dec. 20.-An official an
nouncement was made today that the
Humberts, concerned in tie most gi-
gantic swindle of recent years. were
arrested this morning in Madrid.
M. Humbert, the head of the swim
ding family, was prominent in finan-
cial circles. He was a government
Office holder and the son OF a senator
OF France. With his family he lived
in luxurious style in Paris.
Some years ago the family caused it
to be announced that a rich Anne rican,
Crawford by name, and 1ormer ad-
mirer of Madame HImber;, had died
and left to the madame many mil
lions of dollars On the strength Of
this and by bogus litigation the Hum
berts borrowed and spent $4,000, 900
before tho fraud was discovered.
The arrest has caused a great sensa-
tion throughout the city. All the pa
pers issued extra additions. The pub
lie expects the trial OF the famous
swindlers to prove the biggest judicial
proceedings since the Drcyfus trial
and as equally rs prolific in scandals.

LAST DAY OF SCRANTON SESSION.

(News-D Democrat Leased Wire Servica.)
Scranton, Dec. 20.--The anthracite
strike commission met at o'clock
this morning for what will probably
be its last session in this city.
John H. Otto. teamster in the en-
ploye of the Delaware and Hudson
company, living at Archibald, was the
first witness. He told of being boy
cotted by the various merchants in the
town. The witress said committee
|of the. union went to the merchants
and told them that he was on the
unfair list and not to sell to him.
Otto said printed unfair lists were
distributed to every merchant.
Thomas Kennedy, aged 15 years,
said he worked in drug store in
Carbondale. His father was an engi-
|nec. in the employ of the Delaware
and Hudson company and did not quit
work when tho strike started. The
manager of the drug store. he said,
was requested by committee Of the
union to discharge him, and rather
than have the store boycotted the
druggist told the boy to quit.
David e. Lewis, foreman, working
for the Delaware and Hudson COM
pany, testified to general conditions in
Olyphant and said the authorities of
the borough made no attempt to keep
the peace Most of them were mine
workers or relatives Of such.
A Polander named Max Lazar, who
did not quit when the strike was in
augurated, told of how a man threw
a quart bottle of giant powder, to
which lighted fuse was attached, in
TO the parlor OF his home. He extin-
pushed the fuse. The powder was
shown to the commission.

JURY DISAGREED
No Verdict In Suit Of Mother
Of Boy Killed In the
Akron Riot.

Akron, O., Dec. 2O.-The first one Of
the damage cases brought against the
city for loss of either life or property
sustained during the riot OF two years
and half ago, was ended yesterday
in the disagreement of the jury The
case was brought by the mother Of
Glen Wade, the eleven-year-old boy
who was killed by a stray shot, She
sued for $4,000. and the : case was
fought very hard.
The only other case brought for loss
of life was that by John Davidson,
whose baby was killed while being
held in it's mothers arms. There
have been as yet no cases brought for
loss of property, but people who suf-
fered In that way have been threat
cning to institute suits II not recon-
pensed voluntarily. With the excep-
tion of Prisonkeeper Washer, who
was given $1,000, the county commits
sioners have refused to settle with
any who sustained loss of property.

RACE FOR SEATS
IN j. S. SENATE
Most Highly Coveted Prizes
WIthip the Gifts Of the
People Pro-
sent System

The two seats in the senate for each
state have come to be the most highly
coveted prizes of success in Ameri-
can public life. The constitution d.
rects that senators shall be chosen by
the state legislatures. The candidacy
of ambitious and powerful men for
seats in the senate does not, as rule,
await the assembling of the state law
making bodies. Since the legislatures
have to choose the senators, the would
be senators make it their business
to choose the legislatures. The
whole public life Of not a few years
has been demoralized by the struggle
for seats in the senate at Washing
ton. This clause in the constitution,
which specifies that the senators shall
be chosen by the legislatures of the
states, has abundantly proven itself
an unwise and improper restriction.
The states should have been left to
choose their senators as they like,
Some state for long time, in that
case, might have preferred .the pres
ent plan Of election by the two
branches of the legislature; but most
of the states. and in our opinion all OF
them,-as the result of an unrestrict-
ed opportunity to test different meth
ods,-would have come at last to the
plan of direct popular election of SEN
ators. Every year brings fresh con-
firmation Of the desirability of such a
change, and upon few subjects are the
people of the United States so near
ly agreed. On question Of this kind
the one set of men wholly incapable
of expressing a wise or valuable judg.
ment are the senators themselves,
who are the beneficiaries of the ex-
listing system. The members !. OF the
other house. on the other hand. have
no reason for expressing biased
judgment; and when they vote,-as
they have done. with entire. or practi-
cal unanimity.--in favor OF an amend
ment to the constitution allowing the
states to elect their senators by popu.
lar vote. nothing could be in more
shockingly bad taste than the deter
mination of senator's themselves Ia
prevent the question from coming be-
fore the states for an expression oi
final judgment. It is not necessary
Of course, to change the existing sys-
tenn in those states which prefer tc

given to every state to elect It's sena'
