REGARDING
ANNEXATION

There have been no new develop
ments during the day In regard to
the annexation Of the Marrs addition
and adjoining property on the east
side. The petition for annexation
will be filed in the court in short
time now, and the tnal decision there
fore will rest with that body.
One Of the residents OF the districts
which it is to annex said to The
Chieftain One OF the strong pleas
made by the people Of the Indian
Territory, Vinita included almost un-
animously, to the national congress in
favor Of statehood legislation was that
in permitting present conditions to
continue the government was commit
ting crime against thousands Of
children Of school age, which was true.
''But Doc Frasyer and others Of
this city are attempting to compound
the same felony by depriving at least
SO school children on the east side Of
Bull creek Of school privileges in the
city of Vinita. But where ignorance
is bliss, tis folly to be wise. Doc
was raised that way, is that way, and
can't help it, and should be pitied
more than blamed.

FOR POCAHONTAS
Statue to Be Erected in Her
Honor by CherOkees at
Jamestown

A dispatch from Guthrie to the
Kansas City Star says:
L. d. Davis Of Erick, Okla, regent
of the Pochontas Memorial associa-
tion of Oklahoma, has appealed to
citizens Of the Cherokee nation, to
which tribe, according to Mr.. Davis,
Pocahontas belonged, for contribu-
lions to the Pocahontas monument to
be erected at Jamestown and unveil-
ed during the exposition in 1907. The
monument will cost $4,000 and will
be of bronze. There are a number Of
white persons in Oklahoma who trace
their ancestry back to Pocahontas
and Rolfe, her English husband. The
sum of 81 entities person to life
membership in the association.
Mr.. Davis was interested in the
erection of the monument to Pocahon-
tas long before it was suggested as
feature of the Jamestown exposition.
He had contracted with an eastern
sculptor for a marble figure to cost
81, 900, to be placed near the tower Of
the old church where Pocahontas was
baptised and later was married. The
officers Of the church refused to grant
a site because they believed more
costly monument should be raised.
Mr.. Davis has given $3.50 for the
present memorial. He is a Virginian,
coming to the western frontier many
years ago. He will accept contribu-
tions from citizens Of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory for the monument at
jamestown, and asks that otherwise
they be sent to G. G. Glover, presi-
dent of the Riggs National bank,
Washington, treasurer of the memori-
al association.

PRETTY WEDDING
Miss Villa TrOtt Last Nigh
Became the Wife of Ralph
D. Fulton

Last night at 8 o'clock at the home
Of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Oce Trott, Mr. Ralph d. Fulton Of
Sedalia, Mo, and Miss Villa Trott
were united In marriage. The cere-
mony was performed by Rev. w. f.
Dunkle OF the Methodist church, be-
fore large number Of the friends OF
the bride and groom.
The bride was ATTENDED by Miss
Winifred Fulton, sister Of the groom,
as maid OF honor, and Mr.. Homer
Trott, the brides brother, acted as
best man for the groom. Miss Verna
Edmiston and Mr.. Wilton Ratclif
also attended the marriage party.
The house had been beautifully
decorated for the occasion, especially
the parlor where the ceremony was
performed, which was profusely dec
grated with asparagus and cut flowers.
Rev. Mr. Dunkle and the bride and
groom stood under bower Of aspara-
gus, under which, instead Of the ira
ditional wedding bell, hung an old
shoe.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in white satin, with long brides
veil. She carried a bouquet Of brides
roses. The ring ceremony OF the
Episcopal church was read by Rev.
Mr.. Dunkle, while the orchestra
played softly.
The wedding was followed by a
reception, during which refreshments
we're served. The many beautiful
and costly presents received by the
bride were on display. Towards mid
night the bride and groom and most
of the younger wedding guests ad-
journed to the Katy depot. Before
the train for the north departed with
the young couple some fifty pounds Of
rice had been strewn rather promis-
cuously Oh the station platform, the
bride and groom, innocent bystanders
and the Pullman, and about two
bushels Of old shoes we're used in the
effort to give Mr.. and Mr.. Fulton a
fitting farewell.

short wedding trip, be at home in

IMPORTANT POINT
involved in Application of Jim
Neal for a New Trial
For Murder

Judge L. F. Parker, Jr.. still has
under advisement the motion Of w.
H. Kornegay and J. B. Turner, coun-
sci for Jim Neal, for new trial for
the boy, who was convicted at the
June term Of court of the murder Of
Mrs. Cynthia Johnson near Ketchum
three years ago. 1t will probably not
be until the first of the week that
the Judge will announce the decision,
as he has We ry many authorities to
consult on the various points raised.
The counsel for Neal base their de-
mand for new trial on four principal
allegations: that the testimony was
insutficient to convict for murder;
that new evidence has been produced
tending to show the quarrelsome
disposition of Mrs. johnson; that the
trial was not legal, inasmuch as the
defense was not served with list Of
the witnesses and jurors; and that
Neal was once before in jeopardy and
hence cannot be tried again.
Concerning the serving of the de-
fense with list of witnesses and
Jurors an interesting point is involved.
The federal statutes require that
this must be done, but later, after
this statute has been enacted, con-
gress extended the criminal code Of
Arkansas over the Indian Territory
courts, and the Arkansas statutes do
not require the service, though they
do not forbid it. Meals counsel con-
tends that, lnasmuch as the provision
requiring service is not distinctly re-
pealed, it is still in force. The
government attorney, Mr.. Rider,
however, contends that an entire
newlsystem was put in effect when
the Arkansas statutes we're adopted,
and that Arkansas usages are to pre-
vail in all cases.
If Mr.. Kornegay and Mr.. Turner
make good their contention, all crimi-
nails heretofore convicted will be en-
titled to a new trial, since the Indian
Territory courts have none Of them
sent lists Of witnesses and jurors to
the defense. 1t is therefore an i'm
portant point that Judge Parker
must decide.
