Again, the people Of Indian Terri

to take up the cause Of the railroads

is apparently his surrender to the in
terests of the railroads, especially the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas.
What Business Men Think.
Interviews with business men and
.attorneys who live in the section of
the territory most affected by this suit
show yoiy general belief ON two
points First that the Missouri. Kan
sas g. Texas railroad was given q
tremendous advantage when the state
of Kansas agreed to stand sponsor for
this suit and thereby bring it at once
before the supreme court Everyone
In Indian Territory knows that when
the initial suit in this case was brought
in the Western district at Muskogee
the court had prepared a decision ad-
verse 20 the railroad They also know
that this suit was withdrawn by the
company before the court passed upon
It. but not until Governor Hoch had
agreed to. bring the suit in the name
of Kansas. Had the Kansas governor
not done this there would, in all prob
ability, have been an adverse decision
in the district court here. followed by
similar opinions in the territory court

the Eighth district in ST. Louis or
Minneapolis with this record on de-
cisions the case would then have been
ready TO 20 before the supreme court
Of the United states just as It would
If any private citizen had been plain
tin Governor Hoch, by stepping in,
relieved the railroad from making this
fight and made the railroad a favored
plaintiff
The second conviction of the public
here is that the Missouri. Kansas &
Texas railroad stands not the ehadow
OF a chance OF ever winning this suit.
A Hardship on Allottees.
Governor Hoch gives the impression
that this Is a suit asainst the govern
