Is Canvassing The Re-
turns of the Recent
Election.

The districting and canyassing
board of the Indian Territory is in
session today in Muskogee canvassing
the returns from last Tuesdays cleo
tion. The canvass will probably oc-
cupy two or three days.
The board was in session all. day
Saturday, and late that afternoon, as
a result Of mature deliberation, passed
the following resolution; "That the
board Is without jurisdiction at this
time to consider contests of election
and is bound to canvass the returns
and issue a certificate of election to
the persons receiving the highest
number of vote as shown by the re-
turns"
This means that, in the opinion OF
the canvassing board, the convention
must decide all contests. The above
resolution was adopted as result of
the contest of Cornelius J. Jones, col
ored, of Muskogee, against the cleo
tion of c. N. Haskell, independent.
Jones contested his opponents cleo
tion on the ground that many negroes
had been denied the opportunity to
vote thru a ruling OF the judges Of
election. He appeared before the
canvassing board and asked thaC a
certain number Of votes cast for Mr..
Haskell be set aside. and that num-
ber which his followers were not all
lowed to cast be added to his, Jones'
total
Mr.. Haskell also appeared before the
board, and stated that he believed
that the Jurisdiction Of the board was
limited to canvass the votes as they
we're rendered. The board finally
adopted his view.
A. S. Weeks, who filed a contest
against w. A. Ledbetter Of district
lO3, Ardmore, did not appear to press
| his contest.

THE FIRST TO DEFY
REAL BIRTHPLACE OF AMERICAN
FREEDOM.
In Little Town of Charlotte, North
Carolina, in May, 1775, Convention
Assembled to Declare for In
dependence.

Nesting in the Piedmont region OF
North Carolina stands the little town
of Charlotte. To-day it looks sleepy,
and peaceful and quiet, but in colon
ial times it was perhaps the liveliest
place in the old north state. Indeed,
at least one of his most gracious mai
esty's officers referred to it as the
hornets nest" of America. This cpl
thet, born of baffied wrath, was not
fnisapplied, says Harper's Weekly. Al
most from its first settlement by the
sturdy Scotch who emigrated thither
early in the eighteenth century, from
their native land or from a temporary
abiding-place in the north Of Ireland,
Mecklenberg county. Of which Char
lotte is the center, was famed as the
habitat of irreconcilables. The early
annals of North Carolina bear abun-
dant testimony to the temper and
spirit of the men of Mecklenburg, and
as the years passed and the British
yoke became more and more unbear-
able. nowhere was disloyalty more
openly voiced than among the glades
and hills of this charming region. If
it be true of the rest Of the country
that the prevailing sentiment in the
period Immediately preceding the rev
clutiou was for an amicable settle
ment Of the difficulties with Great
Britain, it would seem certain that
in Mecxlenburg at least, there was
a well-defned opinion in favor Of re-
pudiating allegiance, cutting loose en-
tirely from the motherland, and enter
ing upon career of Independent ma
tionality. This opinion. if the claims
Of the Mecklenburgians and their de-
scendants are to be accepted, cul-
minated in May. 1775. in the adoption,
by regularly elected delegates to a
county convention. Of a bold and war

ike declaration of independence, set
ting forth the wrongs under which
the colonies We're laboring, and in no
uncertain terms asserting that we do
hereby declare ourselves a free and
independent people; that we are, and
of right ought to be, sovereign and
self-governing people under the power
of God and the general congress; to
the maintenance of which independ-
ence we solemnly pledge to each other
our mutual cooperation, our lives, our
fortunes, and our most sacred honor"
AS the story goes, the convention
was the outcome of several earlier
meetings of the leading spirits OF
the county, held for the purpose OF
ascertaining the attitude of the inhabi-
tants with respect to the claim OF par
lament to tax the colonies and other
wise regulate their internal affairs.
So soon as it was learned that open
opposition to the home authorities
would receive popular support, Thorn
as Polk, the colonel commandant Of
the county, issued an order to each
militia captain directing him to call
a company meeting for the election
of two delegates to a county conven-
ton. This was done, and on May l9,
l775. the convention assembled in the
courthouse at Charlotte.

READ LECTURES
HERE MONDAY

Opie Reads lecture next Monday
night on "First One Thing and Then
Another" will be the second number
in the lyceum course, and season
ticket holders may exchange their
coupons for reserved seats on and
after this Wednesday at Bradley's
book store.
Widespread interest is being mani
tested in this lecture; as inquiries for
tickets have come from Pryor Creek
and other surrounding towns, and
those not holding season tickets and
desiring to attend the lecture should
purchase the special tickets which are
now on sale, as only so first floor seats
can be sold.
There are five reasons given by the
management of the course for Mr.
Reads great popularity as lecturer:
az He is, with one possible excep-
tion, the author of more widely read
books than any other living Ameri-
can author.
(2) He is one of the most sought
and best paid contributors to current
periodicals, his name being familiar to
most of the lecture-going public of
every town and city.
(3) He was one of the best-drawing
attractions on any of the largest cour-
ses this past season.
(4) He not only gets the crowd, he
pleases them.
(5) He does not tell old jokes, or
rehash other mems ideas.

big question is that of taxation and
the fourth is that of schools. In each
state the custom has been 10 set aside
two sections of public land in each
township for the benefit of schools.
Indian Territory has no school lands,
SO Congress has set aside million
dollars for the use of the schools in
the territory"
Vinita is the first place at which
the committee will stop. Consequent
ly, it is of special importance that the
committee be given at this place a
right conception of the territory's
feeling in regard to the great ques-
tions on which legislation is asked
Representative of the various Com
mercial clubs of the territory will
meet the committee here and discuss
with them the subjects of interest to
the people of the Indian Territory.
AS one of the members Of the COM
mttee has expressed it, the present is
not mere junketing trip, but three
weeks of hard work, and there will
therefore be as little as possible in the
way of receptions and entertainments
at the various towns visited.
In Vinita, however, there will be an
informal reception to the senators
and the visiting members Of the var
ious commercial clubs held at the
Commercial club rooms tomorrow
evening from 5 to o'clock. Every
body in Vinita is cordially invited by
the local reception committee to at.
tend the reception. Ladies are es-
pecially requested to attend.
From Vinita the senators will visit
the following towns in the order
named:

Select for this a fowl rather than a
chicken, as the long cooking will make
it tender. SINCE, clean, and cut it up
as for a fricasse, put in a kettle with
one-half of a small onion, stuck with
a Glove, and one stalk Of celery, cover
with boiling water and simmer until
the meat falls from the bones, adding

NEW YORK, April 2.-The eve
of the second melting of the commit

workers and their employers finds
the situation as far as the hard coal
fields is concerned, unchanged from
that disclosed in the communications
that have passed between the con-
tending forces, and which have been
made public. Neither miner nor op-
orator would tonight venture a pre-
diction as to the outcome. Both
sides are hopeful, however, and be-
lieve that some way out of the diff
Guilty will be found.
President Mitchell arrived here to-
night. The conciliatory spirit shown
at the first meeting of the two COM
mittees is not expected to obtain at

the miners in enforcing the suspen-

the matter on the table, after the
