CLAYTON NOT
A CANDIDATE
Will Not Seek Office Of Federal
Judge In Event Of Statehood,

Judge Clayton was over at Ft.
Smith, Ark, few days ago,
and, according to newspaper
there, gave it out that he would
not, in all probability, be a can
didate for Federal Judge of the
Central District of the Indian
Territory in the event of state
hood, giving as his reason that
his age would barr him from fill
ing the office, and, further, that
he did not care for the place
anyway.
Judge Clayton is perhaps look
ing for a better place, and if he
can get it with Republican aid,
he should have it. He would fit
snugly in the chair of a u. s..
Senator from this district. He is
strong man on the Republican
side-perhaps the strongest man
the party could put up.
So far no man has declared
himself as being seeker for, the
judgeship of this district, but it
is being talked that Thos. C.
Humphry, the "square d 9 a |
judge" would perhaps aspire for
the place, he being mentioned as
a most logical man to fill the
office.

TO PROBE LEASES
S. A. Mills and Surveyors Will Inves-
tigate Alleged Land Graft.

Ar dmore, l. T., Feb. 26.-It
was learned here that s. A. Mills
who has been investigating agri-
cultural leases for the govern
ment in the Choctaw nation, and
who is now at Atoka, working
under the direction of Indian
Agent Dana H. Kelsey, will ar
rive in Ardmore today and begin
an investigation in the Chicka-
saw nation.
Under the act of March 8, 1905,
the Secretary of the Interior is
authorized to investigate leases
in the Choctaw and Chickasaw
nations.
1t is generally known here that
land men have been taking five
year leases on land of the full
blood Indian, and setting up inn
.provements to a large amount,
when in reality, the land was
never improved. The govern
ment has found cases where an
Indian leased his land for five
years and the lessor sg. eed to
place improvements on the land
to the amount of 81, 900, Inves-
tigation showed that not over $40
worth of improvements had been
made. Where it is known that
this is done, the lease can be set
aside by the secretary.
1t is believed that this investi-
cation will result in leases on
thousands of acres of land being
invalidated.
