INDIAN MISSION CONFERENCE
Resolutions Adopted for Prohibition
Statehood for the Territories

LAWTON: Among the most sig.
niiicant resolutions adopted by the In.
dian mission annual conference was
one contained in the report OF the
Sabbath observance committee. A
particular section of the resolution
condemned practices of secret socie.
ties throughout the country for form
ing great parades, unveiling monu-
ments and decorating graves on Sun
day. The resolution was adopted by
a unanimous vote.
The resolutions or the temperance
committee contained memorial to
congress praying that section of the
treaty now in vogue among the five
civilized tribes of Indian Territory re-
specting the manufacture and sale or
intoxicating liquors in that domain be
not abrogated in final consideration
and vote on the forthcoming statehood
bill. The resolutions endorsed the
work OF the Anti-Saloon League in
Oklahoma and the Federation for Pro-
hibition Statehood in Indian Territory.
Aside from few minor paragraphs
the resolutions adopted last year were
readopted this year, being included In
the general report of the committee.
The report of the committee on educa-
tion exhibited an outline of marked
progress in educational affairs OF the
church, while the joint board OF
finance made a showing OF good con-
dition OF the church finances.

GERONIMO WANTS MORE
As Anxious for Book Royalty as Any
Successful Author

LAWTON: Chief Geronimo. the old
warrior of the Apaches, the history
CT whose life was to be compiled by
s. M. Barrett, superintendent OF the
Lawton schools, and formerly OF Rich
Hill, Mo-, assisted by Superintendent
Greenwood OF the Kansas City public
schools, has refused to give out any
more information regarding himself or
his tribe. Superintendent Barrett had
a contract with Geronimo to furnish
data for the history, and for this he
was to receive half the profits OF the
enterprise. The chief now asks more.
Permission has already been secured
from the war department to go ahead
with the book. This action OF Geroni-
mos at this time will probably delay
the publication OF the history. y
