The rush was SO great at one time that
True and Bent both were kept busy helping

The officer had returned from his long ride

that the boys explanation of how they came

been stolen was true in every particular. Their

the Early History Of Oklahoma

of His Prowess.

Muskogee, Okla, May 6.-Turner
Caddo, in the Choctaw Nation, and
a man who made his winchester the
law and scattered graves of horse
thieves all along the valleys of the
Blue and Boggy rivers in what he
believed to be righteous war of ex-
termination, went to his final rest an
honored man in his community.
For many years dating back into
the early seventies the name of
Turnbull was interviewer with the
history of the Choctaw Nation, a
terror to outlaws and thieves which
claimed the country as their own.
There were three of the Turnbull
brothers, Turner, Simon and Daniel
two of whom were killed by outlaws
They have always lived near Caddo
and the bones of many outlaws and
cattle thieves are lying in shallow
graves between the Blue and Boggy
rivers, unmarked and unknown, sent
to the grave by these brothers and
their sworn confederates, who in the
days of the Indian courts largely
took the law in their own hands
They hated thieves above all crimin-
ais and made short work of then

TO AMEND THE SHERMAN LAW
Senate Judiciary Committee Resumes
Taking Of Testimony.

Washington, May 6.-The hearing
before the senate judiciary commit
tee of bills to amend the Sherman
antitrust law, was resumed yester-
day, Daniel Davenport of Bridge
port, Conn, being heard. He declar-
ed that IL the present law was
amended so as to apply to combina-
tions which are in 'unreasonable"
restraint of trade, the amendment
would impair the whole purpose of
the law, as there would be no STAN
dard to determine whether the res
traint was unreasonable. He said
that such legislation would make the
corporations immune from prosecu-
ton and exempt them from practi-
cally every limitation provided by
the Sherman law.

Three of them, all Choctaw Indians,
we're killed on the spot. The other,
mere boy, was tied to tree and
whipped to insensibility. He bears
the marks of this terrible whipping
to this day. He became minister
and is now pastor of a church near
Ardmore.
Frank Long was member of the
Turnbull Rangers His wife was a
Choctaw and frequently he took her
with him on long trips through the
Choctaw Nation, she acting as in
terpreter while he traded with the
Indians. Two negroes robbed Long $
house and one day they came back
to Longs and there the Turnbull' S
found them. They took the two ne
groes out and hung them. A lew
days later a party of negroes organ
lied and went to Longs place. He
saw them coming and slipped away,
notified the Turnbull's and they re-
turned surprising the negroes. A
running fight ensued in which Sam
Boyd was killed at Buffalo Hill and
the rest chased to Double Springs
and the entire bunch killed. For this
they were indicted by Judge Park
er's court at Fort Smith and for
thirteen years Turner Turnbull was
on the scout. He was finally captur-
ed and acquitted of the charge
While he and Frank Long were un-
der arrest they escaped with shack
| les on at Atoka. Frank Long was
never recaptured but was later kill
ed by Tandy Folsom, a deputy mar
shal.
| In the early eighties the Turn
| bulls and three other men started
| after a gang of thieves that had stol-
en- several horses in what was then
Atoka county. A fight came on and
! two of the outlaws were killed, but
in that fight Daniel Turnbull was
shot through the lungs. AS he lay or
| the ground he swore that no horse
| thief should have the honor of kill
ing him, and drawing his six-shootei
he put a bullet through his brain
killing himself instantly and before
his brothers could prevent it. The
man who shot him was bounded da,
and night by the Turnbull crowd ant
was finally riddled with bullets. The
chase of this band was never giver
up until it was completely wiped out
The last member was caught ant
shot at Wilburton by the executione'
of the Choctaw Indian court.

LiGhI on SOpChOppy.

Although it has been in existence
several weeks, the SOpchOppy Argus
has lust come under the Tribune's OBJ
seryation. There should be a great fu-
tnFe ahead for anything bearing the
name of SOpchoppy. The Argus has
EtnTted out with q high and mighty pur-
pose, as is evidenced by the following ::
''There has been party in town this
week who expressed his intention 70
open an emporium for the sale OF fancy
goods, such as beer, whiskey, and other
Intoxicating drinks. We want this par

we have no law in our county making it

ment that is more effieacious than any
law we can enact, and that sentiment
must be regarded As long as the Ar
gus l. in business ard this editor in
control, we will fight such efforts with
al the powers that we have. We have
enough evils among US now without in
PRODUCING distilled damnation."
There Is nothing unmistakable about
this language. The Argus is in arms

connection. This is, if we mistake not,
it's FIRST paper. Let us hope it will con-
6inue week. after week bringing Us
more tidings Of SOpchOppy. We find
ourselves already pining for SopchOppy.
We would like to know more Of it-ot

would write an article fully telling you
