SENATOR WARNER S BILL,
Attracts Much Attention Throughout
The Territory.

Muskogee, |. T., May lO-Much in
terest is manifested in the bill intro
duced in congress by Senator Warner
of Kansas City, copy of which was
received here today The measure pro-
yides that the restrictions shall be re-
moved upon all classes of Indian citl-
zens except full bloods and minors,
and except homesteads Of those upon
the approved rolls. The restrictions
are not to be removed upon oil, gas,
asphalt, coal or other mineral lands.
The restrictions are not TO be removed
upon citizen who has not received
his deed or is under 2l years old, nor
shall the provisions Of the bill inter
fere with any arrangement made pre-
viously by the secretary Of the inter-
ior relative to mineral lands or leases,
with an allottee Of any of the five
tribes. Any contract made for the
sale Of land before the passage of the
act removing the restrictions shall be
void.
If this bill should pass, it would al
low the mixed bloods of all nations to
sell their lands, excepting homesteads,
unrestricted, whereas citizens of this
class at present have to secure the
consent of the secretary OF the inter
ior to ALLEVIATE their allotments. This
bill would throw a large amount OF
land on the market which is now tied
up by the Curtis bill and at the sam,
time would protect the fullbloods who
it is assumed are the only citizens
except minors who require the guar
dianship Of the government. Stron9
forces are operating in Indian Terri
tory and Washington in hopes of Sc
curing the passage of this bill.

The subject discussed first and
most at the Commercial Club last
night was the one of roads and
bridges, aud into the discussion a
gcod many entered and many good
suggestions were made.
NJ. b. Baird told of what other
towns nearby were doing III the mat
ter. and the showing was not at all
creditable to Tulsa. The conditions
demand relief, and if Tulsa does not
do more than has already been done
other towns will get the trade and
Tulsa may whistle for it.
II was reported that about S6OO
of the $1,000 that the committees
started into raise has been collected
and additional efforts will be put
forth to collect the balance.
Mr.. Baird was opposed to building
any more wooden bridges, they cost
too much, and he thought the thing
to do was to incorporate and sci
stock, build steel bridges and wher
statehood comes sell them.

Another Fitzgerald citizen,

without the assistance of Wilcox.
Well possibly so, for accidents
happen oulknow in the best of

both Messrs. Henderson and
Paulk tell me that they are ex-
pecting me to pass our new
county bill and they go further
and say that should l fail with

not hope to follow me and gain

EDITOR ENTERPRISE:

Having carefully studied the
situation relative to the needs Of
more school room for our con.
stantly increasing population,
which is to be met with pro-
posed bond issue of $50, 900 for q
high school building, I would
submit the following for your
consideration.
Would it not be more feasible
to issue bonds for the erection
of two school buildings, one for
each of the wards not yet pro.
vided with them, exact dupi-
Gates of those we have IN the
first and third wards. These
can now be erected at a cost Of
not over $4,000 each and will fill
all requirements for years to
come. This would reduce the
bond issue from $4,000 to &c..
900. If we now erect a high
school building in some central
location, it will not be long be.
fore the second and fourth wards
will be clamoring for school
buildings, and they are certainly
entitled to them, to judge from
the way they are filing up. The
time has come when the sites re.
served for school buildings
should be utilized for that pur-
pose. If $4,000 are now ex.
pended for the unnecessary lux.
ury of high school building, it
/ is doubtful whether the tax
payers will very soon vote an-
other issue of bonds for school
buildings in these wards where
they are needed.
If it be objected that for two
new schools two complete sets
of teachers are needed, while for
high school only one set is re"
quired, thus increasing the cost
of running two additional schools,
we should bear in mind that
with the increasing population
the assessable values in these
wards are augmented, which will
not only provide for all such re-
quirements, but also reduce the
burden of taxation for each indi-
vidual. That is to say: as real
estate increases in value, the
tax rate can and should be re.
duced in proportion and still
raise the necessary funds for all
legitimate and necessary ex-
penses to run" the city.
Se1f.evident as this proposition
is, still it seems not to be largely
understood by the average tax.
payer. For instance, the valu-
alton of real estate is increased,
we will say, Is per cent. this
| year, the tax rate should be re.
duced from 1 per cent to ~
per cent, or less. If the tax
is not reduced, our RECEIPTS
would be out of all proportion to
our expenditures, and that would
lead to all manner of "extrava-
gances, as you please to express
lit, being averse to calling it by
the right name. (There is q
+ happy mediFh" between ex-
travagance and parsimonyD

REMARKS.

Some time during the year
1906. history failing to give the
month, a party of sturdy North
Carolinians, attracted to Georgia
by reports of its beauty, rested
on one of the hills overlooking
the spot where Macon now
stands. From this hill, looking
westward, the scene was so en-
chanting that in spite of the
fact that along the banks of the
Ocmulgee River below, winding
it's way in the distance, was en-
camped the hostile red men,
they resolved to make this the
end of their journey, and this
spot their home.
At once they felled trees with
crude tools hewed them into
shape, and with the rocks gath
cred from all about, they proceed
ed to erect forts or block-houses
for their protection, naming
their home FORT HAWKINS.
For twenty years the colony
thrived in and about this fort.
There were occasional fights
with the Indians, who finally
drifted away. Then the nem.
bers of the colony built their
homes nearer the river, and as
the fear of the return of the red
men vanished, they crossed the
river, and from all this the town
of Macon grew.
When a name was needed for
the little town, these North Caro-
1inians selected that of the young
and brilliant Senator, from their
own State-Nathaniel Macon.
AS the settlement at Fort
Hawkins in 1906 marked the be-
ginning of the town of Macon, it
seems appropriate to celebrate
in some BETTING manner the
one hundreth anniversary of
that event.
AS one means of celebrating
the occasion, it is proposed to
make Centennial Fair of the an.
nua1 fair held this year in Macon
and to this end the Macon Fair
Association desires the cooper
alton of every man, woman and
child, wherever they may be,
who feels any pride in our
I beautiful city.
The Fair Association will be
aided in this feature of the COM
ing Fair by the Nathaniel Macon
Chapter, Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution.
All over this broad land are
scattered Macon-born people.
Is not this, the one hundreth
birthday of their beautiful city,
a most fitting occasion for them
to visit the old home, meet old
friends and kin-people, and enjoy
a glorious homecoming?
