The X. of P. Building and Hall

Last night shortly after II o'clock
fire was discovered burning in the up-'

pretty good Roadway when discovered
and it looked as though the building
would be burned down, but the heroic

lodge, K. of P, had been in session ID
the hall upstairs earlier in the even
ing, but had adjourned, and while it d
not known how the fire originated, d
is thought likely that some one threw
a cigar down, which later set fire q
the building. The upstairs Of the
building was occupied by the two x
of P. lodges, Rotherwood and Ivanhoe1
and number of other lodges met q
the halls, which we're among the hand
soonest furnished in the state. Tho
downstairs was occupied, the wee
room by Temple, the grocer, and tb(3
east room by warren's Racket Store
The damage upstairs was total, to
furniture, fixtures, costumes, etc.,
lodges being entirely destroyed. Ther
was about $500 90 insurance on the 4
stairs fixtures.
The damage to the building =
about fifty per cent with $4,000 90
surance.
The fire did not get downstairs,
water damage is very heavy on q
stocks underneath. Mr.. Temple ca(
ried between $4,000 90 and SIS 900 90 ii
surance, while Mr.. Warren had $1,000 d

Trying to Get Somebody to Vote for the
Constitution.

Muskogee, l. IT,, Sept. I2.
Now that the separate state gather
ing has adjourned there is little
talk here of its proceedings. Some
interest is taken locally in the elec
ton, for the reason that a large
vote will be construed as a general
desire III Indian Territory to To-
cate the capital at Fort Gibson,
and it is considered as being a
coup -de-main over the other aspir-
ants in the territory.
One of the many extraordinary
features of the election provisions
is that a vote on the county lines
or county seat will not be counted
unless the vote is also cast for the
constitution. This unheard-of and
arbitrary provision is in line with
the other proceedings and efforts
of those who controlled the con-
vention, which altogether displayed
a most extraordinary assumption
of blindness and chatteI servility
on the part of the people Of Indian
Territory.
Most of the accounts of the row
which occurred in the convention
were apparently incorrect in as
suming that Rutherford, one of
the participants, had gun. Mr..
Rutherford, it is stated upon the

The decline in the cotton market
today carried prices down about
eight or ten points with October

the market down to the lowest
record, reached in some time and

inclined to take in shorts and play
for some rally than force the issue

Wall street which helped sustain

Liquidation has progressed to
considerable extent in the option

to force prices down to the ten cent
basis and keep them there as it was
for the bulls to put the market

For the present we are likely to
see a more two-sided, irregular

CHOCTAWS ARE IN LINE
Fer Removal Of Restrictions Governor
McCurtain is Favorable to II.

Since Coy d. Johnston Of the
Chick asaw Nation has strongly
recommended to his legislature
that they memorialize congress for
the removal of restrictions ON sur
plus lands, it is now believed that
the Choctaw legislature, which
will meet next month, will follow
suit.
1t is declared BY one who knows
Gov. McCurtains personal posi-
ton, that he favors removal of re-
strictions because he believes
statehood is almost upon us and
that the Indian will be the prey Of
the tax collector unless he throws
some Of his surplus over 10 the
non-citizens. The homestead OF
the Indians is not to be taxed but
the surplus lands will be levied on
and there IS some danger for the
outcome. If the Indian it NOT f.
nancially able to meet his assess
ment, and many are not, the tax
collector will get III his work and
there viii be delinquent sales ga
lore. This is strong argument,
and a new one. Since the Indians
are fighting for removal of re-
Istrictions the ligh is beginning to
dawn on development of this terri
tory. South McAIester Capital.
