DECLARES
HICKAM Is
ALL RIGHT
Hunter Williams Says He
Knows Same to be True.
WAS CLERK OF COMMITTEE
He Declared in Person Doodle
Evidence to Mcclure.

Guthrie, o. T., April Al. Hunter VIII
liams. editor of the Glencoe Mirror. ard
a man of character, has the following
intelligence On the Doodle matter and
Senator Hickam:
The editor of the Mirror believes that
the people of this district have no just
cause to be alarmed about any crooked
ness in Senator Hickam. 1t Is true he
is between two fires just now. One
strong force is waging war against him
and endeayoring in every way to put a
wrong construction on his acts. The
writer has good reason to believe that
Mr.. Hickam was never served with a
legal subpoena, therefore Sheriff Hessar's
alleged attachment for him could have
no legal bearing. While a clerk in the
legislature the writer delivered in per-
son to County Attorney MCGUIRE all the
written evidence taken by the Doodle
committee. 1t was valuable package
that would have commanded thousands
of dollars could the lobbyists have even
glanced at its contents. but it was de-
livered intact to the county attorney and
his receipt taken therefor. Mr.. MCGUIRE
then asked US if we could get Senator
Hickam's consent TO acknowledge service
without the issuance of a subpoena We
did so and the matter was arranged be.
tween Hickam ard the county attorney.
and there the matter rested. There was
no need of all this scare about Hickam's
alleged scamper from the seat of JUS
tice. and we will warrant that the peo-
pie will find him square.

INDIAN LEASE is CURSE.
He Has Sold His Stock and Taken to
Drink.

Guthrie, o. T., April "A special dis
patch from Washington says: The in
terror department has received very bad
reports about the Pottawatomie, Shaw.
nee and Kickapoo Indians in Oklahoma
According to these reports the Indians
are rapidly going from bad to worse.
Since the interior department began ie7s-
ing their lands they have plenty Of money
and they are spending it in getting drunk
and disorderly and making trouble on the
reservation. The department has learned
of the things from Charles H. Dickson,
superintendent of Indian schools. In u
report TO the department, Superintend
ent Dickson says:
according to the allotment rolls there
are 1855 citizens Potawattomies, 631 alb
sentee Shawnees and 2S5 Mexican Kicka-
poos, a total of 2, 751. Their condition has
been one of retrogression for several
years. 1t is not more than ten or twelve
years ago that they were industrious. cor
tented and happy. They had their own
hoines and horses. chickens and pigs,
and the drinking of lntoxicants was
almost unknown with them. Since the
curse of leasing their lands was inaugu-
rated, they have been dispcsing of their
personal property and gradually falling
into habits of idleness and vice. From
habits of industry and thrift these IN
dams. or the most of them, have be-
come idlers and Migrants on the face of
the earth And their best friends are
those who favor compelling them TO work
Work is their only salvation.
THE leasing OF their lands has now
proved a curse for majority Of them
and it would be a thousand times better
foI them if it were stopped and they
were presented with the proposition, Of
work or starve"
Mr.. Dickson says that the agent on thu
reservation. Frank A. Thackery. has been
active in Furnishing white men who have
been selling the Indians whisky and that
he sent several of them to prison. One of
these offenders was followed by the agent
to a dance. He was notorious as bad
man. and was heavily armed, but he
agent arrested him. He is now serving
term of Imprisonment.
Officials at the interior department say
the Indians have more land than they
need for farming purposes, and that as
the surplus is leased at good rental, they
arc receiving good income from it.

all to come to his home properly robed
and ready for their last journey.
At the Bowman N. E. parsonage he
persisted in wanting to see the ladies of
the Symphony club, who were here the
night before. He claimed that he was
a detective and knew each member of the
club and her history. He gained en-
trance into the house and was found in
second floor room reading a book.
The unfortunate is Walter Cowan,
laborer residing on First street. in the
north part of the city. The police went
to the home and found sickIy wife and
five small children who are all practic-
ally destitute. The brave little woman
had hidden the razor and sharp knives,
fearing that her husband would become
violent.
Cowan has suffered from a severe spell
of fever, which deranged his mind. The
ohcers fear that he will become violent
and kill his family. He viii not be per-
mitted to be at large after today.

out of the store Saturday evening causing
the robbers to fee and the people on the
street to rush to the scene to learn the
cause of the tragedy, says the Hennessey
Clipper.
Shortly after o'clock Saturday even
ing while Mrs. Humphrey sat in the store
reading newspaper, two strangers enter
ed at the back door. Mr.. Humphrey had
just stepped out and the clerks had left.
AS the strangers approached, Mrs Hum
phrey without noticing their masks asked
IL there was something they wanted. They
told her they wanted her money. Look
ing up she saw two masked men with re-
volvers. "All right" she responded, and
rising turned quickly and ran to the front
door, which had been left partly open.
She did not heed their demands for her
to stop and managed TO escape with her
dress bae4y torn. AS soon as she got out
side the robbers fed.
There is no clue to the identity of the
robbers.
