FISH WITH FORKS
Farmers North of River Have Fish
by The Wagon Load

Ore OF the most successful! fishing part
les in the history Of the state spent most
of Sunday fishing in the canal which
carries the waters of Lake Meredith to
the Arkansas river, The party which
consisted of farmers in the vicinity of
Ordway and Lake Meredith hauled five
wagon loads OF fish away from the canal
Sunday afternoon.
When the gates to the canal were
opened the water from the lake came
down the canal in rush for the Arkan-
sas river. and thousands of fish were
swept along by the water. They were
scooped from the water with pitch forks
by the farmers. and loaded into wagons.
Later the fish were divided and por-
ton Of the catch carried to Ordway and
Sugar City. Carp. catfish and bullheads
composed most Of the catch. A cook
stove was set up near the canal and the
fishermen enjoyed fish dinner while
resting from their work.

Guthrie. Okla, July 26.-Assisstaut
Attorney General Charles L. Moore

he represented the state In the Indian
land tax suits instituted By the federal
government IN the United States cir
cult court. There we're Al Of these
suits, one for each county in former
Indian Territory. enioiaing the county
officials from collecting taxes on Indian
alIotments.
At the hearing at Muskogee last
week an agreement was reached be-
tween the attorneys for the govern
mcnt and the state and an order made
By the court. declaring that all lands
on which restrictions have been re-
moved, whether by act of congress or
By application Of the individual allottee
to the interior departmel;. alsd embrac-
ing probably s5 per cent Of the lands
involved, shall be placed in the tax
rolls Of the various counties for the
present year
The four classes Of lands on which
an agreement could not be reached and
on which the matter must be threshed
out in court, are the new born lands,
allotted to children born since the regu-
lar allotment; the dead lands" where
the original allottee Is now deceased
and the land 10 the hands Of his heirs,
and the lands OF minor fullbloods and
minor freedmen The states conten-
ton In regard 10 the dead lands Is
that all OF them are taxable except
where the allottee was tuIlblood and
where all Of the heirs are also full
bloods. The government will not agree
to that view OF the matter, however.
The state filed separate demurrers in
regard to the Cherokee, Creek and
Observation-Disclosures lands. No Semi
mole lands are involved. The state was
given thirty days to file briefs in sup.
port Of the demurrers and the govern
ment thirty days to reply. Judge
