EASTERN CHEROKEE ROLL
NEARLY COMPLETED AFTER Al
MOST TWO YEARS WoRK-PER
CAPITA PAYMENT ABOUT $780,

Washington, May 2l.-Again Mr..
Guion Miller who has charge of the
long expected roll of the Eastern
Chcrokees, has set a date when the
roll is to be completed. lie has
promised that the roll shall be turn
ed over TO the court of claims OF
the United States for final approval
not later than the first of June He
has been nearly two years in max
ing this roll, Notwithstanding The
fact that he has a large force OF
clerks on the job, and has had ever
since he started the work.
Unless legal complications arise.
and Mr. Miller does not disappout
the waiting Cherokccs again. this
payment should be made cihtcr i'm
June or July. II $ supposed that q
special agent will be appointed to
d'sburse the money and it will prob
ably be paid out at Tahlcquah and
Muskogec, though this will be deter
mined after the paying agent is sc-
lccted
No one knows just how many
Eastern Chcrokces the rolls viii
show entitled to participate in this
payment but an estimate by those
who are in close touch with the mat.
ter is that there will be about 500
per capita TO distribute.
II is feared that when the RON
is finally approved by the court tha'
there will be inunctions asked by
some who have been left OFF the
rolls and others asked to hold up
the payment by persons who are
on and who do not believe that
some others who are on are enti
tied 10 participate in the payment
This is one cause of the delay in
completing the roll as II was Dc.
sired TO make II as accurate as
was possible to do

that life can exist on Mars. In the

THE EIGHT.HOUR LAW
WRITTEN OPINION OF ATTORNEY
GENERAL WEST TO STATE LA,
BoR COMMISSIONER

Guthrie, May 20.-Somo Of the state
papers have made an error in the re-
port regarding the opinion from A.
torucy General West declaring the
eight hour law was imperative. The
report was that this is the eight hour
law of 1908 when it should have been
the law of 1907 which was partially
repealed by the law or l9us.
In his written opinion TO the state
labor commissioner general Yves,
says:
In regard to the second paragraph
whether the passage of senate bill
302 tl90S) repeals the other law so
that prosecutions may not be main
tanned under il, the common law rule
undoubtedly is that in the absence of
law in a substantial particular will
work so as to abate all pending pro-
seCutions. however, there is saving
clause in our constitution, section "a.
article g. which provides that the re-
peal of the statutes shall not affect
any penalty incurred or proceedings
began by virtue of such repealed s,a,.
ute"
1t can readily be seen that not only
Is the eight hour law OF 1905 very
much in force but that all penalties
incurred under the law of 1907 before
its repeal are in force.
