Franklin, an attorney at Ardmore, is
here trying to get the secretary Of the
interior to establish a precedent on a
question that viii frequently occur in
the land sales Of fullblood Indians
through district agents in the Five
Civilized Tribes.
Mr.. Franklin represents two clients
who made sealed bids on tracts OF
land near Weurika. Their bids were
the highest made and were $500 above
the appraised value made by the gov
ernment But when they were opened
an unsuccessful bidder announced to
District Agent Dyehe that If he would
re-advertise the land he would agree
to raise the highest bid on esch tract
$500 Dyche refused to make a deed
to the highest sealed bidder. and re-
ferred the matter to the department.
If the department refuses to order
deeds made to the bidders who had
the highest sealed bids, then the sys-
tenn of selling these lands under sealed
bids has been completely upset. On
the other hand. II 1t Is done, the In
dians have received $500 each less

An Explanation.

Owing to the inquiries from a num-
Der of readers of the Troy News re-
garding the articles in the last issue
under the head of "A Comparison, :"
we will state that this matter was fur
nished by c. w. Tompson, a liquor
dealer of this place, and was given in
defense of his side of the saloon issue.
In the rush of getting out the paper
the News failed to tell from what source
the matter came. The News, like all
other papers, is semi-public property,
and for this reason the columns of the
paper are at all times open to all for
the fair discussion of questions OF
public interest. We are making this
statement because our failure to com
ment last week was misleading in that
our readers had right to, as many
did, think that the News editor was the
author of the articles. AS long as the
matter is being discussed the columns
of the News will be open to both sides
OF this, as well as other issues. Ger
tainly there can be no objection to
this by either side Of any question, for
it is fair, and the News desires to be
fair.
