been returned by the secretary, and
that was rejected.
1t is stated on reliable authority that
at. least $50 deeds have been turned
into the office of the Indian agent.
The consideration will average 81, 900
to each deed, which means $3.50, 900
that has already been tied up for
months, some of it since carly in lam
nary, and which will apparently be in
the same shape for many months
longer
The reason given for all the numer-
Gus delays is the protection of the
Indian. There are undoubtedly some
of the Indians who are IMMERSED in
business methods, and who need much
assistance as is provided for them. But
there are very many who are as capa-
BILE business men as are TO be found
among their white neigh bors in the
territory, and they are anxious to have
things started off, but the paternal
care of the government will not allow
them any more freedom than is given
to their untutored fellow-tr ibesmen.

Musfogee, 1. T.. July 11.-Indian
Territory is, or should be. primarily a
farming country, and the only way in
which permanent prosperity for it can
be assured is by the development of
the rich farming lands which it con-
tains. There are thousands of people
ready and waiting to undertake this
task They have already been waiting
for months. and, in fact, Tor years,
and now comes the announcement
from Washington that no more deeds
and leases will be received, which
means the indefinite suspension of the
work by which the alienation of lands
especially in the Creek nation, was to
be made possible.
AS soon as the forms of deeds were
received, the deeds began to come in in
considerable numbers, accompanied, of
course, by the required certified checks.
As carly as January they began to
come, but the prospective purchasers
are still waiting. So far as any one
here is able to discover not a deed has
yet been approved by the secretary of
the interior. Only one deed has ever

Sealed Bids For AIlotments.

Washington. July 10. - Hereafter
when an Indian of the Creek nation
desires to dispose of that portion of the
allotment which the government per-
mits him to sell, he will notify the
representative of the department. who
will advertise the land for sale. Sealed
bids only will be received With the
bids there must be certified check for
20 per cent of the bid and if the bid
ders refuse to take the land after his
bid is accepted he forfcits the check.
Also. accompanying the bids will be Il
sealed valuatian of the land made by
a government expert and if the highest
bid is not as high as the valuation then
all the bids will be rejected.
While the obligations rest upon the
buyer to take the land if his bid is ac-
cepted, the Indian has the right to re-
fuse to sell if the highest bid is not as
much as he thinks the land is worth.

NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE.
Pope Leo Eats And Sleeps And Retains
Strength OF Intellect.

Rome, July 13.-Thc usual gathering
of watchers, mostly journalists, wit
messed from tine piazza of st. Peters
the opening of the windows of the
papal departments on Saturday morn
ing. From what leaked out from the
sick room it appeared that no signifi-
cant change had taken place in the
condition of the patient. DR.. Lapponi
succeeded in having Pope Leo take a
sufficient quantity OF nourishment
during the night.
Another operation, performed Fri
day, brought further relief to Pope
Leo and by it the possibility of his life
being prolonged was increased, but it
could hardly be said that the operation
improved his chances of recovery.
AS an immediate result of the opera
ton the pope spent quiet and almost
painless day, with, for his age, "A nor
NAL temperature, and he only more
strilsingly exhibited his strength of
constitution and intellect.
Shortly before midnight the condi
ton of the pontiff was reported to
have undergone no change, and it was
added that he had just dropped peace
fully into sleep.
The pope slept until nearly O'Clock
when he awolle, seemingly more re-
freshcd, and asked for food.
