HOW THEY DIFFER.
Made No Reference To Preference
Rights. Indemnity Fund Is
Doubled.

Guthrie, o. T.-The speculation as
to the conditions under which Oklaho-
ma will get statehood this winter, II
either of the bills now before the house
should be passed, makes it Of interest
to compare the prominent features of
bus bill passed by the last congress,
but ultimately defeated on account of
the Gallagher amendment. Of course
both the Hamilton bills united the for
tunes Arizona and New Mexico with
Oklahoma and Indian territory, but in
the Oklahoma part there are radical
differences between the various bills.
In the matter of capital location the
first Hamilton bill placed the capital
at Guthrie until 1910, the present Ham,
ilton bill until 1915, giving the legisla-
ture power to psovide for its location
thereafter; the Mcclure bill until 1910.
with provision that its location there
after shall be decided by majority
vote Of the people.
A clause for the restriction of the
sale Of intoxicating liquors in the Ind
ian country for ten years appeared in
the first Hamilton bill This clause
was not, however, a part of the original
bill, but was inserted as an amendment
as was the Gallagher amendment, pro-
viding for prohibition for twenty-one
years. The Mcclure HI provides for
the cession to the federal government
of the power to control the sale Of liq-
uor to Indians. The new Hamilton
bill makes no mention of the liquor
question.

Clayton Summoned To Capitol.

south McAlester, /. T.-Judge vii.
liam III. III. Clayton last night received
telegram from Attorney General
Moody, summoning him to Washington
at once. The telegram stated that the
president wished to talk with Judge
Clayton or territorial matters as soon
as possible. In view of the fact that
the fight for the district attorneyship
is growing warmer and warmer and
the candidates, j. H. Wilkins and
James Gresham, of this city and B. T.
Latham of Antlers, are at Washington
and it has been thought that Clayton
has been called on by the president for
the purpose of getting more light upon
the situation, and it is the general opin.
ion that the fight will be settled in
few days after Clayton's arrival

SEGREGATED LAND.
Ways and Means of Getting Favor
able Legislation are
COnnidered.

South McAlester l. T.-Representa-
tives from number of the towns and
cities in the segregated coal land belt
met in the committee room of the
Bushby pursuant to call issued by Ma
jor Chapman and afterward joined in
by several mayors Of nearby cities.
The object of the meeting was to
consider ways and means of procuring
legislation which would make it pos
sible to sell the segregated coal lands
to bona fide settlers in small tracts so
that the country Immediately surround
ing the towns might be occupied by
farmers instead of lying idle because it
is suspected to conceal coal beneath
the surface.
Boone Williams, president of the
Lehigh Commercial club was elected
chairman and and u. S. Russell was
chosen secretary.
The subject was discussed at some
length, developing considerable diver
sity of opinion on some of the points
involved. There are nearly half mil
lion acres of land in the segregation,
l99,9OO Of which is under lease to coal
operators, the balance lying idle, except
what is occupied by squatters. These
latter, Of whom there are large num-
Der have been given notice to vacate
January lst.

To Preserve Indian Music.

Washington The necessity for
preserving Indian music, the establish
ment of an Indian reform school and
the erection of sanitarium for tuber-
cular Indians are new features of the
annual report of the commissioner of
Indian affairs, Francis E. Leupp. The
commissioner says that in pursuance of
the general idea of saving instead Of
crushing what is generally character
istcc in the Indian, steps have been
taken by him for the preservation thru
the schools Of what is best in Indian
music.

$50, Door the stupendous sum for a
vase Of $3.50, zoo.
But, after all, it was only one more
e1emplifcation Of what has become all
but a commonplace of the modern art
auction room, that a rare work of art
is worth all that it will bring. and in
these days Of great fortunes and many
liberal competitors that is a great deal.
This vase is praised on all sides for
its fine shape. 1t is 16%4 inches tall It's
color has come in for some criticism
The color is principally gros -bIeu, but
the critics object that the color IS
heavy, opaque-lacking in the rich,
clear transparency Of the finest Sevres
specimens, which for the most part came
from that factory before 1853, the date
Of this example. The vase is enriched
with gilt ornamentation and has spaces
reserved in white.
Three of the panels are decorated
with bouquets of flowers and fruits. The
cnIef panel, painted by Dod1n, pictures
a lady disporting herself as a shepherd
ess, and a boy playing the bagpipes, in
a landscape.
The likeness OF the vase to one in
royal possession, and a suspicion as
to a phase Of the Partridge vases earlier
history, may perhaps have had some
degree of influence upon the price paid
in Christie's auction room. The Part
ridge vase is similar to one owned by
King Edward which is in Buckingham
palace, and it has been said that this
vase of Mr.. Partridge's was once in
that palaee-the inference being that
It was at some time stolen, like many
of the art treasures which to-day en-
rich the halls of many collectors.

Dodln panel in nearly full view.
According to the estimate Of crit
les VINO follow the market prices of
these rare porceIains, this vase would
have brought 10 or Is years ago about
one-quarter of the price paid for it at
this last auction in Christie's. IN
deed, there were bidders who seemed
to expect to secure it at some such
comparatively small sum at this auc-
ton.
They had to expand their ideas of its
auction room value, however. and did
SO by offers Of so and 100 gufneas for
more than $3.50 and $500 respectively
