CHIEFS SIGNING DEEDS
Governors Mecurtain and Johnston of
the choetsw and chekasaw Ma
tons Respectively Have Great
task Signing Deeds.

Muskogee, l. T., March l0.--What
would you think II you had to sign
deeds TO 100000 acres OF land in
farms Of 800 acres each, and how long
do you think it would take?
This is the task that has been done
by Governor ID c. McCurtain and Gov.
ernor ID. }. Johnston, chiefs of the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations res
pectively. The chief Of the Indian ma.
tion is its executive officer in the
matter of grantor Of deeds as well
as other matters. lie must sign the
papers that divests the nation of IT,
tie to land and places Il in the individ-
ual Indian. Each deed has to be sign.
ed by both governors of the nations
because the two nations own the land
Jointly, and there are two deeds to
each allotment, one for surplus land
and another for the homestead, so in
fact each governor has TO sign two
deeds to each allotment.
Governor Johnston writes his sig
nature more rapidly than does Kov-
ernor McCurtain, but he cannot stick
to It like McCurtsin. Governor Nc
Curtain comes to Muskogee to sign
the deeds. lie reaches the office of
the commissioner before the janit1ts
do He is let in and commences writ.
ing his name on the deeds sometimes
as early as 8 o'clock in the morning.
He will keep it up steadily until 10
o'clock at night. He has a clerk who
pulls the deeds out from under his
hand and blots them just as fast as
a signature is made. Thus from NOR.
ming until late at night he writes and
writes, and every signature means a
splendid home in the Choctaw or
Chickasaw nation. Governor Johnston,
of a more nervous temperament signs
deeds for three or four hours at a
time and then rests for while. Gov.
ernor Johnston can sign as many as
$50 deeds in an hour, but Governor
McCurtain signs only about $50.
All of the patents have to bear the
signature of Commissioner Bixby
when they are sent to the department
OF the interior. These signatures are
affixed by clerk in the office, Hal
Belford. The signatures have to be
in a form specifying by a clerk, OF
course, which necessitates writing
two signatures instead of one in ev'
cry deed Mr.. Belford in signing these
deeds makes $500 double signatures,
his own and Mr.. Bixyb's, in a day, or
a total OF $500.
Few people have any idea of the
enormous amount of clerical work
necessary in making Indian allot
ments. The signing of deeds is but
the final stroke of work that has oc
cupied many years and small army
of clerks and officials.

BRAY KNOCKS PERSIMMON

Prof. J. E. Bray, of Reno, has been
appointed District School Superintend-
ent for the district COMPRISING Washoe,
Storey, Lyon and Esmeralda, counties,
under the law passed at the last session
of the Legislature. This is the law over
which there was considerable discussion
as to whether or not lady teacher could
hold the position. 1t was finally decided
that women were not eligible, and the
position was given to Mr.. Bray. The
salary is 81 900 per annum, we believe.
Had it been decided that women could
hold the Office, Mrs Jennie Logan, OF
Reno, would probably have received the
appointment, and it would have been a
just and fitting recognition of her SER
vices as an educator in the State.

GAMBLERS TO
PAY FOR STREETS

A Goldfield dispatch says that under
the new law the License Collector OF
Goldfeld estimates that the amount that
will be available for the improvement
of streets in that city will be about S1lO,-
600 during the remainder of the present
year. The revenue for this purpose is
derived almost entirely from the gam
bling licenses, which amount to 81, 500
per month and are increasing monthly.
This license refers to the license that
is turned over by the county to the in
corporated cities from monies collected
under the county license law. 1t has
been estimated that this law will give
the city of Yerington about 81 400 per
month, which in itself would give the
city pretty comfortable sum to start
business on. This would be nearly ST.
600 per year with the number of games
that are now running, but the number
will probably be increased before the
year is out These figures are exclusive
of the proportion of the license that
comes to the city from the county on the
saloon license Yerington ought to get
along very we'll for the next year or SO
on this amount of money.

WILL CONNECT TWO STATES

1t is not only possible, but entirely
probable, that Utah and Nevada soon
will have telephone connection. Within
few months the intervening mountains
will be crossed by spans of telephone
wires and it will be possible to talk from
Salt Lake City to almost any point in
Nevada connected. and telephone com
munication between almost all points
will be established.
The movement, which is expected to
result in the establishing of telephone
communication between the two now un-
connected States, is now in the hands of
the Utah, Nevada and Idaho Telephone
Company, with Hugh L. Thomas, form

GUARDING GOLD WITH GUNS

According to the Greenwater Miner,
which, by the way, has just come out in
a new dress, after disastrous fire in
that camp, it is thought that the cele-
brated Breyfogle mine has at last been
re-discovered in the Greenwater district.
A rich find was recently made about IL
miles south of Greenwater, and the ore
is so rich that it is being guarded by the
owners of the find with shotguns.

nearly all points of the State. The Ne
vada systems then are to tap the Rocky
Mountain Bell Telephone Company's
wires in three places, the southern part
of Utah, the western part, and in south

The new Nevada companies, it is un-
derstood, are to become sub-licensees of
the Rocky Mountain Bell, thus enabling
them to obtain the Bell equipment. An
exchange rental will be established on
each line that the rentals may be divided
between the companies.
