SHOULD Be FOR STATEHOOD
No more Money for Commissioners in
Sight Now

Muskogee, July 23-How would you
like to government officer holding
down a job for six months without
pay and only prospect Of pay at the
end of that time?
That's what the twenty-six United
States Commissioners in Indian Ter
ritory are doing at this time. They
have just been notified by the attor-
ney general that the last congress fail
ed to make an appropriation for their
pay and that they will have to wait
until congress meets again and makes
an appropriation. The commissioners
draw $500 per year.
In addition to this there is bailiff
and a clerk for each commissioners
court and they do not know where
they are going to get their pay either.
The last appropriation was consunl-
ed at the end of the fiscal year, July
l, and it will probably be six months
before another appropriation is avail
able. In the meantime the officers
will have to live on their own resourc-
es or quit their jobs.
