Tne West Virginia Baptist Sun

very active missionary campaign dur
ing the summer by sending it's labor
ers into the various parts of the
state as we'll as aiding missionaries
on foreign fields. =.
The Executive Board in its first
meeting after its adjournment
i of the Macdonald sitting of the
convention appointed supefintend-
ent OF missions with headquarters a.
Mt. Carbon to have the general over.

missionary and colporter., HE was
also authorized to employ ynissionar-

State Convention the services Of Rev.
Geo II. Carter were secured to rep
resent our work in the Eastern Pan
handle. This is a new field for our

and nine Sunday Schools were organ
lied into a Baptist Sunday School
Union that will in the near future
become an arm of the West Virginia
Baptist Sunday School Convention
We were desirous Of employing a mis-
kSionary for the Flat Top section
and the matter was taken up with the
| boards Of the associations and unions
but before We could find out and de.
eide upon the proper worker the con
altion OF our treasury would not JUS
tify the entering into = contract,
Your missionary spent some time 10
the district and was cordially received

! Fiat Top association Is composed Of
able ministers and is the most en-
thusjastic body in the state. The
Bluestone Sunday School Union. with
! heV. j.. Dabney, az president, is doing
much towards building up the Sun
! day Schools in its district. '"/
All the Baptist ANIMALS of the
state have been visited and the of.
ncer3 in charge gave space on their
program for our missionary and col
porter work to be presented and al
lowed collection to be taken to assist
US in our field work.

SUITS KNOCKED OUT.
Demurrers In Eastern Oklahoma Title
Cases Started by United States Are
Sustained.

Judge Ralph Campbell of Okla
homa, has sustained the demurrers in
the suits brought by the United States
to set aside various deeds and leases
made by citizen allottees in the Ave
civilized tribes in eastern Oklahoma,
and thus settled a legal controversy
that had been the cause of considera-
BILE concern in that part OF the state.
The court reviewed the relation OF
the United States to the five tribes
since they became a nation, and
found that no vestige of title to the
lands allotted them now remains in
the United States. The demurrer in
volved the question of the citizenship
OF these Indians and the court de-
clared them to be citizens of the Uni
ted States with all the rights, priv
ileges and immunities of citizenship.
II is held that the United States can
not maintain these suits on the prin-
ciple that il sustains to the individual
