PORTER TALKS ON LAW
Governing Tribal Tax
Says Was Never Intended
for All Towns.

Special to Daily Leader.
Muskoaee, t. T., June G-"The tribal
a& law which is causing so much
trouble was never intended TO be en-
forced against the incorporated towns
said Gen. Pleasant Porter Governor Of
the creek nation, today.
''rhe object of the law when passed
by the House Of Warriors about twenty
hve years ago was to protect the legi-
innate merchant against the peddlers
and the inoians from me swindlers, who
infested the Territory in those days
The Curtis act Of 1898 nullihed the Creek
law, which was re-enacted by the ma
tion in ..ovember. 1900, and approved by
President Mckinley November 22. 1900 "
Gen. Porter saiu the merchants. when
permitted TO buy lands and build re-
fused 10 pay the tax, and no effort was
made by the Greek governor to enforce
payment because he deemed il unwise
to collect this tax when the merchants
paid taxes TO improve the town after
IL was incorporated we have never
asked for the enforcement Of law" said
Gen. Porter, because we regarded il
as unjust under existing conditions but
since Secretary Hitchcock has taken the
matter up and the courts have decided
In our favor, there is no gainsaying the
fact mat the tax is legal"

PROTESTS DEFEAT LICENSE
T. B. Manriquez Asserts Country De-
mands Liquor Store" in Residence
District. but Is Refused Permit

"The country demands it," was the
novel and rather startling reason given
by T. B. Manriquez to the board Of
police commissioners yesterday in eX-
PLANTATION of why he should be
granted a license to conduct whole
sale liquor business at 1911 Mateo
street The demands of the country
and 7. B. Manriquez were ignored
however, and the request was refused
as the protests We're too numerous and
vigorous.
The part of the city where Manriquez
proposed to establish his wholesale
liquor store is in a densely populated
residence district and about twenty
five reputable citizens were present at
yesterdays meeting of the commission
to protest against granting the license.
During the arguments the statement
was made that last spring when an
other person wanted to establish a
wholesale liquor house in the neigh
borhood Manriquez had been one Of
the most vigorous protestants.
Yes, but ! did not then understand
that the country demanded it as it
does now," answered ManriqueZ. TT is
my intention to supply the neighbor-
hood with wines and beer in wholesale
quantities."
When the application was denied
there was general rejoicing among the
large number of persons who were
present to protest.

BOARD TO PROBE BID SCANDAL
Contractor McCray Summoned by
Investigating Committee to
Answer Clerks Charge

At the next session of the board of
public works to be held Friday after
noon an investigating committee will
probably be appointed to look into the
charges made against Contractor S
McCray by City Clerk Lelande.
McCray has been ordered to appear
before the board and submit to an in
vestigation of the charges. City At
torney Mathews has Informed the
members of the board that this is the
proper method to pursue and some ac-
ton of this nature is necessary in
order to clear up the record. City
Clerk Lelande declares that McCray, or
someone interested in his success, al
tered his bid after it had been passed
on by the council The contractor en-
phatically denies having had any con-
nection with the alteration.
The investigation into the charges
against McCray is necessary in order
that the work on Second street, the bid
for which McCray is accused of alter
ing, may go on according to the ad-
vertised program. McCray was the
lowest of the three bidders and if it is
proved that his bid is illegal the con-
tract must be awarded to the next
lowest bidder.

LIQUOR MEN ARE IN MUDDLE
Trouble over Granting Of License for
Wholesale Liquor House on
Central Avenue

Pernicious activity in opposing the
application of ]. H. Bestmann for
wholesale liquor license is charged by
Police Commissioner L. C. Gates
against A. Niemeyer, who conducts
Wholesale liquor business near Elev-
enth street and Central avenue, and he
has been ordered to come before the
commission next week and show cause
why his license should not be revoked.
J. H Bestmann has been trying for
two weeks to secure a license to con-
duct a wholesale liquor business at
the corner of Twelfth street and Cen
tral avenue, and each week there have
been numerous protests against it. At
Yesterdays meeting a petition was
presented by Bestmann containing the
signatures of $50 persons who are
favorable to his project. Three pro-
tests, containing a total of 100 names,
were presented opposing the project.
An executive meeting of the board
was held just before the open meeting
at which it is believed the question of
this petition was considered and the
conclusion arrived at that A. Niemeyer
was entirely responsible for blocking
the project. The building in which
Bestmann intends to open his liquor
business is owned by the mother of
City Clerk Lelande and Mr.. Lelande
was present at the executive meeting
of the commission.

POLICE BOARD HAS MORE
CAPTAINS THAN POSITIONS
S. P. HENsLEY REPORTS FOR
DUTY-IS UNASSIGNED
Board Solves Problem by Asking Him
to Find other Work Until Council
Can Act on His Case-EmoIuments
Rather Than Honor

Too many police captains was the
embarrassing situation that confronted
the pension fund commissioners at its
meeting yesterday morning. With Cap
tain Auble, now acting chief of police
filling the position of captain of police,
there was no room for Captain Hens
lev. whom the commission had ordered
off the retired list to report for duty
The problem was practically solved ~
the commission asking Capt. S. P.
Hensley to look for another job until
the CITY council could formulate an or
dinance to cover his case. When the
commission is ready to arrive at def
mite conclusion it will give him a thlr-
ty days notice.
Captain Hensley was an efficient Oh
ficer during his incumbency, but
through disability was ordered to be
retired on a pension. With nothing to
do but draw this pension Captain Hens
lev recovered his health and few
weeks ago was ordered by the police
commission to report for duty. When
he reported he was assigned to pa
trolmans beat with a patrolman's rank
and salary. This seemed unfair 10 the
captain who had been retired through
no fault of his own, and he registered
a vigorous protest In addition to be-
ing reduced in rank and salary he is
unable to perform a patrolman's duty
owing to the fact that the bridge of his
foot is broken and he cannot walk or
stand long in one place.
He offered these objections at a meet
ing of the police commission held last
week and as a solution to the prob
lem the commission directed the city
council to pass an ordinance restoring
retired police officers to their former
positions at the expiration of their re-
tirement. The council turned the prop
osition over to the legislative COM
mittee for action and in the meantime
Captain Hensley will be carried on
the pension list, and will temain there
until thirty days after official action
has been taken on his case.
'In the meantime Captain Hensley
can seek employment elsewhere and II
he secures a place that pays him $3.50
q month or something like that he can
resign from the force" said Commits
sioner Gates, apparently in all serious
ness.
e ee, are there any places like that
lying around loose?" wondered Captain
Hensley, audibly.
In a talk to the commission the cap
tain stated that he was not so anxious
for the honors and title of his old Of
flee as he was for the emoluments, and
it is probable that his case will be set
tied by creation of a new office in the
police department of which he will be
the head with duties that will not re-
quire much walking.

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Remedy Which Has Revolutionized
the Treatment of Stomach
Troubles.

The remedy is not heralded as won
derful discovery nor yet secret patent
medicine, neither is 1t claimed to cure
anything except dyspepsia, indigestion
and stomach troubles with which nine
out of ten suffer.
The remedy is in the form Of pleas
ant tasting tablets or lozenges, con-
tanning vegetable and fruit essences
pure aseptic pepsin government tesD
golden seal and diastase. The tablets
are sold by druggists under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Many
interesting experiments to test the d.
gestive power of Stuart's Tablets show
that one grain of the active principle
contained in them is sufficient to
meat, eggs and other wholesome food.
Stuarts Tablets do not act upon the
bowels like after-dinner pills and
cheap cathartics, which simply irritate
and inhame the intestines without hav-
ing any effect whatever in digesting
food or curing indigestion.
If the stomach can be rested and as
sisted in the work of digestion 1t will
very soon recover it's normal vigor, as
no organ Is so much abused and over
worked as the stomach.
This Is the secret, if there is any Sc
cret, of the remarkable success of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, a remedy
practically unknown a few years ago
and now the most widely known of
any treatment for stomach weakness
This success has been secured en-
tirely upon it's merits as a digestive
pure and simple, because there can be
no stomach trouble If the food is
promptly digested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act en-
tirely on the food eaten, digesting it
completely, so that it can be assiml-
ated into blood, nerve and tissue. They
cure dyspepsia, water brash, sour
stomach, gas and bloating after meals,
because they furnish the digestive
power which weak stomachs lack and
unless that lack is supplied it Is USE
less to attempt to cure by the use of
"tonics," pills and cathartics which
have absolutely no digestive power.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores and the reg
ular use of one or two of them after
meals will demonstrate their merit bet
ter than any other argument.

GLASS HAS ANOTHER PETITION
Former Chief of Police Hands in Third
Document Requesting His
Appointment

If petitions from prominent business
men have any effect in determining
the action of the board of police COM
missioners in appointing a chief of
police, former Chief J. M. Glass has
every other applicant for the place
pushed into corner.
At yesterdays meeting of the COM
mission the third petition favoring
Glass candidacy was received. This
petition bears the names of forty-four
prominent business men.
Glass has presented a petition at
every meeting of the commission for
the last three weeks and all of these
documents have been referred to the
committee of the whole for definite ac-
tion. 1t is expected that Commissioner
Johnson will return in two weeks and
the problem will then probably be
SOLVED.
