particularly directed toward securing
division of our assets and the re.

a milestone around the neck Of every
self-respecting Indian" The message
is in full as follows:
TO the Senate and House of Repre-.
sentatives:
Gentlemen:-
| herewith transmit for your CON
sideration b communication from
the interior department relative to
the act of the general council of the
Choctaw nation at it's regular ses-
sion in October, 1906. being an act
to appropriate funds for the regular
and necessary expenses of the Choc.
taw government for the fiscal year
ending Sept. Both, 1901 This act
was disapproved by the president for
the reason that it contained items
that were Objectionable, towit;
The appropriation for salary of
the coal commissioner and for the
Offices of the tribal courts. The
communication accompanying also
c-ntains the suggestion, that upon
L e elimination of these obiectiona.
80 items the same will receive due
consideration" In view of this sit
uation, | deemed it my duty to con
vsne your body for the purpose Of
ch action as you think best.
Our tribal government, with its
.crunty and district offices, was con
tllued by an act of congress indefi-
nteiy from the 4th of March, 1906
The continuance was not solicited
or welcomed by the Indian. Our
sole desire was to secure a speedy
settlement of our affairs We felt
then that as long as our tribal prop
city was held in common, it fur
nished an inviting field for legisla-
tion inimical to the common interest

p.ltecting our welfare, lend willing
all to those who profit by the nm
settled conditions that prevail here.
The disposition of our coal and
phalt land is of great moment to

new state to acquire this valuable
property | am in hearty sympathy
with the plan. | have felt it my
duty to take the initiative in this
matter to the end that we may Sc

this property. The announced poll

private parties from purchasing the
same and the government itself

After having special agents in
the field for months working up
the case, the Department of JUS
tice has decided to act against
several of the most powerful of
the eastern coal-carrying roads.
The prosecutions will follow the
expose of methods by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission last
summer. 1t will be recollected
that it was shown these roads,
running through the soft coal re-
giOn had formed a sort of trust
and pooled their coal freight.
They owned and operated a num-
Der of mines and reserved their
coal cars exclusively for the use
of their own mines. The indie
pendent miners could net get
cars, could not get switches, sid
ings or rail connections for their
mines and were entirely at the
mercy of the railroad combina-
tion. This combination had been
in force for ten years. The De-
partment of Justice thinks it has
a clear case against all of the
roads, and the fines, if imposed,
will amount to over 81 900, 600. 1t
is the most important action ever
contemplated by the government
against the railroads. There is
another and similar suit cOntem-
plated against the anthracite
roads, and if the two are pushed
to a successful conclusion, they
will do much to break up unfair
discrimination of the railroads a
gainst independent producers not
only of coal, but of other COM
moditieS.

Did it hail any at your place
Friday night?" was the question
often asked on the streets Sat-

doing much damage to wheat,
fruit, tobacco plants and garden
truck. In the vicinity of Lands
window lights were broken and
tobacco canvass not of the best
were riddled. Hail stones fell

and larger. If you should pass
through this vicinity year hence
you may possibly see the marks
left on fences and buildings. 1t

Violent protests are being made
by a number of highly protected
interests against the arrange
ment that the United States is
entering into with Germany for
the continuance of trade relations
pending the formulation of def
mite commercial treaty that can
be signed by the two govern
ments. The arrangement con-
sists in allowing the manufact-
urers in Germany to swear to the
valuation of certain classes of
goods that are made solely for
export and whose price cannot
be fixed by comparison with the
home market. 1t is a small con-
cession and not one that in the
opinion of the Secretary of State
or the Secretary of the Treasury
both of whom are parties to the
agreement, will result in any un-
dervaluation of German goods.
But, of course, the howl of "ex-
ecutive usurpation" is being
raised by a number of already
over-protected interests. It is
not usurpation at all, but a timely
expedient to meet a pressing e.
mergency. 1t is designed, to help
American relations, not only with
Germany, but with other foreign
countries, and all classes of citi-
zens ought to be glad that the
arrangement has been made in
stead OF attempting to decry it.

Our fellow-citizen, DanielMoul,
spent three days last week at

and thus it is. However, we
know that he was not engaged

In strolling through our ceme-
terry we observe the tastes of
different people in caring for the
graves of their relatives. We
find some who yet persist in ridg-
ing up the graves according to
an ancient mode, which, at this
enlightened day, could be rele-
gated to the rear with a good
deal of propriety. Maintaining
this mode of improving the silent
city compares we'll with main
tanning the candle dip and lard
lamp in preference to the I'M
proved gas and electric lights.
It seems to me that every person
ought to know that every ceme-
terry improved with a nicely sod
ded level surface slightly terrac-
ed is the most beautiful appear
ance and shape that can be given
to any grave, and facilitates the
work of keeping clean. Let us
discard antiquity, and fall in line

thought of the present. Before
