THE RIGHTS OF OIL COMPANIES

closure was exempted from drilling
or operating upon, and that the
lease under which he was operating
did not allow him to interfere in any
manner with the agricultural inter
1stS of any citizen. Mr.. Moore found
oil in the first well he drilled on pub
lie domains. After drilling two or
three dry holes in different direct
ions he found the oil extended over
in the agricultural enclosure where
, his lease gave him no right. TO drill.
Unable to secure the permission of
Mr.. Lombard to enter upon said en-
closed land he began his chicanery
and rotten methods to secure posses
sion of tins land. He finally sue
ceeded in having the United States
Indian Agent Capt. Frank Frantz to
order A. Lombard to open his gates
and allow the oil companies to enter
upon his agriculture enclosure. In
fact did send the constable down and
place the oil companies in possession
IF said land. Mr.. Lombard, seeing
he was unable to get protection from
the I. 5. Indian Office, went to
Washington about March 10 and laid
the facts in the ease before the Com
missioner Of Indian affairs. The
commissioner, after hearing his
statement and seeing the manner In
which he was being intruded on by
these oil companies, wired instruct
ions to the L. S. Indian Agent at
PawhuSka to stop further drilling
and operation by these companies on
his land until the Secretary of the
Interior had made a ruling IN the
case and defining the rights Of the
oil companies on lands exempted by
the lease in the Usage Nation. The
case had been hotly contested on
both sides and the decision of the
Secretary Of the Interior will place
a check ON the oil companies tress-
passing and destroying the agricult
ural interest of homestead allot-
ments of the Usage citizens as has
been done heretofore in several in
stances. This decision was sur
prise to the oil companies and is the
reason for the publication and howl

THE SELLS-FLOTO SHOWS.
Will Soon Be Here.

Now comes the cheerful circus
press agent with his first aid to the
children. The Sells-Floto shows inau-
gurate their annual travelling season
this year with the most costly, gor-
geous and elaborate display ever seen
under the enormous canvas.
The Sells-Floto Shows have grown
to such magnitude as to necessitate
enlargement in every department. And
this famous amusement institution is
proud of its home, and while on tour
is ever standing reflection Of Den
ver's industry and genius.
The menagerie alone is nearly dou-
BILE its former capacity, and during
the winter the old world has been
secured thoroughly for wild animals
and strange beasts of every country,
and now this attractive and highly ed
ucational department is complete in
every particular. The cages, vans,
chariots and tableaux cars are all new
and especially attractive in wondrous
architecture, conceded by all show
men to be unequalled by any other
firm, corporation, company or syndi-
cate.
1t has taken many years and sew
eral fortunes to place this department
on such lavish magnitude, to tickle
the fancy and satisfy the mind of the
generous public. When witnessing
the grand street display from which
no revenue is derived-only the graf
ifcation to please both young and old
children remember that what
follows in the big canvas is
more mel'itorious. In the main tent
many new features will surprise and
delight the beholder, daring acrobatic
acts will fill out a long and worthy
program, more than enough to satisfy
and please the most exacting critic
and astonish everyone else. Two per
formances are given daily, rain or
shine.
