AARslNoER OF A Better DAY

No important news to this part Of the state has
cone from washington since The passage Of the statehood
bin than the report received yesterday that the BIN for
removal Of restrictions had been reported with prospects
favorable for its passage
The fact that the president and secretary Garfield have
agreed to the terms Of the bin materially improves the
chances for its passage Our two senators and hye rep
resenatiyes are lending their best energies pushing
the bill through at this session and the general opinion
Is that they win succeed.
Possibly few people. even in Oklahoma, realize how
much this legislation means to the half Of the
state and whaa possibilities il opens up Thousands
Of ambitious farmers fl the old states are ready to sell
their lands and to seek homes here The trouble in this
section Of the state heretofore has not been in getting
people interested n the country but in hndng land for
them when they come With the greater part Of the
IGnd hsdged about with restrictions which make
the transfer Of it difficult and cumbersome when
impossible there has been little to offer TO the prospective
settler consequently thousands Of Of the most fer
tile land have remained uncultivated with the removal
Of restrictions the way win be opened to the homeseekr
and we shall acquire thousands Of good citizens who
viii become producers adding the wealth Of The state
and contributing to the prosperity of every community.
The proposed bin removes the restrictions from all
lands held BY inermarried citizens and from an except
the homeseads Of the fublood Indians It is estimated
that its passage viii make between five millions and Six
millions Of acres alienable

Nelson had been watching Kee for sew

searched him and found about one-fourth
pound of yen shee. The Indian con-
fessed that he had bought the dope from
the Chinaman, and Nelson at once ar
rested the latter.
