Over Nine Million Acres OF Land
Is Now Tied Up BY the
Clash Between These
Officers.

Muskogee, |. T, April "a
Gov. McCurtain Of the Choctaw
nation has carried out his threats
that he would deliver the patents
OF the government to allotments
in the Choctaw nation dir, ct to
the allottees without the approval
of the secretary of interior if the
secretary attempted to exercise
jurisdiction over the lands and
leases of the Choctaws.
This is a result of long con-
troversy between the chiefs OF
the Choctaw and Chickasaw ma
tons against the secretary OF the
interior. The chiefs claim that
they alone have the power to
give patents 10 the allottees of the
nation and that the secretary of
the interior, under the treaties
and agreements with the Indians,
has no authority whatever in the
matter. When it was announced
by Secretary Hitchcock that all
patents in the Cnoctaw nation
would have to bear his approval
before they were delivered, the
chiefs replied that before they
would submit they would make
and issue patents in their own
name, under the powers given, in
the original agreement and pat
ent given the Choctaw nation by
the government. No one thought
the chiefs made this threat se-
riously, but the action of Gov.
McCurtian leaves no doubt as to
his intention.
From the beginning the Indians
in these two nations have opposed
the secretary in the assumption
Of authority over them. When
he took the sale of coal lands out
of the hands of the tribal author
tiles and ordered sealed bids on
districts delivered to him in Wash
ington, the Indians protested.

WAS INCIDENT OF THE STRIKE
Unions Are Now Fighting the
Contractor Make the Charge
Against the Dealers
Rate War.


Muskogee, 1. T., April a.
Carpenters and builders have
started fight on what they al
lege is a lumber trust or combine
of the lumber dealers Of tho city,
which they claim, has been in
existence for over a year and
which has forced the price of
lumber up FIVE or six dollars per
thousand.
In the turmoil that has been
started on account of the lockout
declared by the contractors of the
city against the unions and the
proposed formation of a citizens
alliance, there are coming to light
a good many things that have
been kept under cover under the
guise of Organization, and be-
fore the industrial questions that
are now stirring the city are set
tied it is likely that there is going
to be readjustment in many
lines. This charge against the
lumber combine is an outgrowth
of the labor difficulties. There are
all sorts of talk about bringing
legal proceedings against the
lumbermen, but no action had
been taken when the grand jury
adjourned tonight. 1t is UNDER
stood that this charge against the
lumbermen came from the unions
which are fighting the contract
ors. There are nine lumber
yards here and eight of them are
in the combine, and it is alleged
that this combine has forced ev-
cry independent company that
has tried to do business to either
get into the combine or else start
a rate war on them that drove
them out Of business.

WITHOUT HITCHCOWS APPROVAL

Muskogee, /. T., April 22.-
Chief McCurtain is delivering
patents to allotmehts to Indians
at Kinta without the approval OF
the Secretary of the Interior OF
Dawes commission. lie will de-
liver more next week. The COM
mission has delivered 5000 deeds
and has $4,000 more held up in
the Office here. They won't send
any more. The commission says
that the questions will have to be
settled by Hitchcock and the
chiefs. They believe that the ac-
ton of the chief will cause trouble
and invoke radical orders from
the department The commits
sion thinks the chief is delivering
deeds to certain persons and
holding up others. This will
probably cause mandamus pro-
ceedings. They say that deeds
thus far distributed are not good.
Yesterdays action will result in a
long fight between the chiefs and
Hitchcock over the latter requir-
ing his approval of the deeds.
Mr., Bixby declares that there
are now $4,000 Choctaw and
Chickasaw deeds at Muskogee
pending delivery to the Indians.
He could not say what step the
Interior department would take in
the matter as it was a matter be-
tween the chiefs and Hitchcock,
Mr.. Bixby believe the Indians
chiefs intend to deliver deeds tc
only those whom they think are
entitled to citizenship and in that
case he expects to see mandamus
proceedings brought by those not
recognized by the chiefs. He
says the actions of the chiefs in
dicate that they are trying to set
tie questions of citizenship them
selves.

CHIEFS CLAIM TO HAVE
AUTHORITY TO SIGN DEEDS

There was stipulated provision
in the treaty as t. how these
lands should be sold, but the sec
retary Of the interior insisted on
the sealed bid plan. 1t has been
a signal failure and none of the
lands have been sold. This made
the Indians madder than ever.
Last November tho Dawes COM
mission sent $500 patents to
alIotments to the chiefs OF the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations
for their signature. The patents
should have been returned, sent
to Washington for approval of the
secretary and then returned to
the commission for record and
again sent to the chiefs for de-
livery. When the chiefs found
that the sec etary was going to
pass upon the patents they re-
fused to return them. The
secretary ordeIed the commission
to send no more patents to the
chiefs until they returned the
ones they already had. The
Dawes commission now has
nearly 10000 patents piled up in
the Office ready to send to the
chiefs for signature as soon as
the secretary will let them go.
In the meantime the Indians are
clamoring for these deeds to their
allotments.
1t is the general impression
that the secretary of the interior
will meet the radical measures of
the Choctaw governor with
qually radical measures. He
will probably call upon the chiefs
to deliver up the deeds to him.
This they will refuse to do, and
then trouble is expected. It is
understood that the Indian chiefs
are acting on the advice OF their
attorneys.
1t is understood that attorneys
in the Choctaw nation are advis-
ing the Indians to get their un-
approved patents from the chiefs
and then send them to the Dawes
commission here to be placed on
record. If they do so the COM
mission will refuse to record
them.
The Importance of this matter
will be realized at once when it is
understood that there are 10000
Indians waiting for their deeds
and that each deed represents an
allotments of 800 acres. 1t means
that this clash of authority may
tie up indefinitely 9,e00, 900 acres
of the best land in the two ma
tions. 4It4

PRESIDENT AND STATE
HOOD.

The statehood question is set
tied. There is no doubt as to
what will happen when congress
meets again in regular session.
Oklahoma and Indian Territory
will be admitted as one state. A
majority of the members Of the
house and senate have expressed
themselves as personally favor
ing this action, and President
Roosevelt committed himself to it
in the short speech he made at
Muskogee while enroute to his
hunting grounds, The words OF
the president were as follows:
81 must say how impressed /
have been travelling through the
territory this morning. Your
territory, remember, in conjunc-
ton with Oklahoma, will soon be
one of the greatest states in the
Union. l look forward to meet
ing your senators and congress-
men not long hence. And now
gentlemen, l earnestly hope that
as you enter statehood, you will
realize the immense responsibility
that rests upon you. Statehood
is a first .class state if you use it
right. 1t will be mighty poor
thing if you do not"
There is no ambiguity in these
sentences. They clearly show
that President Roosevelt has
made up his mind, and perhaps
will recommend in his annual
message, that statehood along
the lines indicated should be
granted at once to Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, 1t may be a
fortunate thing that Mr.. Roose-
welt happened to visit the terrific
ries at this time. His observa-
tons of the development of the
country and his meeting and
mingling with the people Impress
ed him with a sense of the injus-
tice that is being done by holding
them as wards and victims of the
department of the Interior. There
is now q project on foot to per-
suade Speaker Cannon to make a
visit to the territories. This plan
is good one and should be en-
larged so as to include other in
fluential members of congress
who have been opposing state
hood. Their opposition has been
founded largely upon ignorance
of territorial conditions. A visit
would convince them of the err
rors of their ways, and next win
ter the vote for statehood for In
dian Territory and Oklahoma
would be practically unanimous.
