Bryan daily eagle and pilot. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1909-1918, 1910-04-12

While the cotton acreage has
been reduced in some localities it has
been increased in others. Much new
territory has ben added to the cotton
area in the western counties of Texas
and Oklahoma. In the coast country,
owing to the low price of rice, the
greater part of the land heretofore de-
voted to that cereal is this year plant
ed in cotton. For instance, the Beau
mont Enterprise says:
There will be 1000 acres of cotton
planted this year within reach of Beau
mont as a market, where none was
grown before, and at least three gins
are projected. Thus is general agri-
culture in the Beaumont country devel-
oping."
Those who figured on reduction
of acreage in the general crop will
surely be disappointed.

be added, no intimation that he would

an attempt was made to nominate
him for third term in 1880.

KANSAS CONGRESSMAN WOULD

PROMULGATEs LIVELY FEUD
Introduces Bill to Convert School Into
Natural Agricultural School
For Indians.

Washington, Jan. 24.--The Chilocco
Indian school in Oklahoma has de-
veloped a fued between Representa-
tive Campbell of Kansas and Repre-
sentative Mcclure of Oklahoma. It
broke out in the committee on Indian
affairs when Mr.. Campbell objected to
a provision in the Indian appropriation
bill which turned the Chilocco school
over to the state of Oklahoma to be
used as an insane asylum
Mr.. Campbell has followed up his
objections by introducing a bill which
is intended to convert the institution
into a natural agricultural school for
Indians. One provision of Mr.. Camp
bells bill provides for the sale Of four
sections Of the land belonging to the
school to purchase agricultural equip
ments for the institution.
In tho first place" said Mr.. Camp
bell, z object to the proposed dona-
tion by the federal government to the
state of Oklahoma OF an institution
that is easily worth sbO0l0OO. Aside
from excellent buildings the govern
ment owns S,640 acres of land which
can be sold at $40 per acre. Before
the government turns over such a val
liable plant to Oklahoma some pro-
visions should be made for valuation
of the property and the state should
turn into the treasury something like
a reasonable consideration for the
school.
Then there are at present 467
pupils, with eighty-seyen teachers that
should not be turned out INTO the
world without some educational oppor-
tunities, simply to furnish Oklahoma
a free insane asylum It appears to
me that we should convert the school
into technical institution to give the
Indians some practical instructions
The proposition of turning the In
dian school over to the state Is one
which Mr.. Mcclure has been giving
considerable attention during this ses-
sion. He calls attention to the policy
of the federal government in other
states where Indian schools have been
abandoned and thinks that if Okla
homa should agree to take care of the
insane Indians the plant should be
given to the state. There is no ap-
preparation in the Indian bill for the
maintenance of the Chilocco school,
and unless one is inserted either on
the house floor or in the senate it will
be closed on July 1.

GOVERNORS THIRD MESSAGE
To EXTRAORDINARY SESSION
Senator Russell Wants Ten Day Limit in Which
to File Appeal From Decision of Secretary
of State on Referendum Petitions Brings
up Capital Location-Asks Protection for
Railway Employees from Loan Sharks.

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 25.--The house
and senate barely did more yesterday
morning than meet and adjourn, and
go into caucus of the democratic ma
jorities. The house adjourned until
1870 in the afternoon, and the senate
until o'clock. The senate commmit-
tee on rules asked for further time in
which to report. Senate bills seven
to eleven passed to second reading.
Senator Russell introduced a bill
making ten days the limit in which
to file appeal from the decision of the
secretary of state in initiative and
referendum hearings; Senator Frank
lin, bill providing for payment of
state witnesses in criminal cases.
On motion of C. G. Jones, of the
house, the speaker appointed Jones,
Ewell and Haimes special commit
tee on miles and mileage.
The governors third message, pre-
sented to the legislature yesterday
followed a brief session with no
business transacted of weight, opens
up fifteen more subjects, two of them
of the highest importance. He asks
consideration of a law to locate the
state capital, or to create a state cap
ital district; and recommends that
proper action be taken to see that
Oklahoma has full congressional rep
.resentation. The first proposition
opens up the state capital location
fight anew, and the second means the
re-districting of Oklahoma the addi-
tion of two congressman and the prob
ably elimination of all certainly re-
publican districts.
The governor also recommends a
law for the protection of Oklahoma
railroad employees, from the loan and
claim sharks, who, by bringing suit in
remote counties from where the de-
fendant is at work, secures a garnish-
ment of wages by default, since the
employee, placed between alternatives
of accepting garnishment or paying
out a larger sum for railroad fare
usually does not defend his case.
Other subjects opened up are pay
ment of witness fees; change of venue
in probate matters; weight and meas
ures; time of appealing from decision
of secretary of state in initiative and
referendum matters; for a vice chief
justice of the supreme court; terms
of district court, method of fixing
same; salaries for extra district and
special criminal court of appeal
judges.

morning, and the doors of the business

The Auditorium was chosen as head
quarters and there the citizens gather
ed. w. B. Coley was selected to act
as chairman of the meeting and DR..
Winner secretary and number Of as
sistants were chosen to receive the
signed notes. The meeting promptly
converted itself into mass of activity,
and the speech making that character
ICES many such meetings was dis
pensed with. 1t was the intention to
have the fire bell rung ten times every
time thousand dollars was subscrib-
ed, but as the notes were scattered
among SO many assistants, it was inn
possible to ascertain when the thou
sand mark was reached, so this idea
was abandoned.
The stores remained closed until
after noon, when they opened again.
However the work of raising the
bonus did not stop when the stores
opened for there yet remained several
thousand dollars to be raised to com
plete the amount Of the bonus.
When the noon hour came about
$1,000 had been subscribed in notes
ranging from SIS to $500, mostly of
the smaller denomination. Few of
the larger property owners had made
their notes at that time, and when it
is made the total amount will be great
ly increased. Many notes are being
signed this afternoon, and by night
it is thought the subscription will be
respectable sum.
