COMMITTEE HEARS
OF LAND GRABBERS
CONGRESSIONAL COM MITTEE
LEARN SOME MORE THINGS IN
THEIR INVESTIGATIONS.

PaWhuska, Okla, Aug. 25.--An at
tempt in which it was alleged land
grabbers sought to gain possession
Of the one-mlilion-dollar Indian school
at 'Chilocco, in northern Oklahoma,
near the Kansas state line. today
was laid before the congressional
committee which is investigating In
dian land contracts.
The school comprises numerous
stone buildings and 5000 acres of
land, and is open to all Indian chill
dren except those of what are known
as the Five Civilized Tribes in this
state. The land is valued by the Off
cials at 100000 and the buildings at
100000.
Representations had been made at
Washington, it was stated, that the
buildings were dilapidated. the farm
lands of little value, and that Indians
refused to send their children to the
school.
The committee. headed by Repre-
sentative Charles H. Burke, charm IN
of the house committee on Indian
affairs, made a thorough inspection
Of the place. The equipment was said
to be in excellent condition and
the farm lands among the best pr b
ductive in the state For the goyo,n-
ment 10 close up the institution and
sell out the lands would be to rob
the Indians of one OF their chief
sources of education, said an Off
cial. The land grabbers, It is a.
legged, have had agents working at
Washington in an effort to get the
government to sell the property for
practically nothing.
The committee arrived here late
tonight. after a seventy-mile auto
mobile ride from Arkansas City,
Kans., through the country owned
largely by Usage Indians. Investi-
cation Of contracts made with these
Indians will be begun here tomor-
row.

Drop Of 20 Deurees.

The maximum temperature yester-
day was 81 which was a drop of about
20 degrees and The minimum temper
ature last night was SO which was a
lowering of the minimum of the night
before about eleven degrees. The
wind blew chilly from the north and
the drop seemed more than it really
was. The air was cool this morning
and the fellow who formed the habit
of going in his shirt sleeves sought a
coat to wear down town. The cold
snap will probably not last longer than
today but it is believed that the very
hot weather for the year has taken
its departure.
The norther brought a touch of early
October weather in August and the
change from the torrid heat of the
early part of the week was a most
welcome change The Oklahoma Wis
itors in Colorado and Canada will be
arriving home now. The weather will
be pleasant from now until the winter
days come in.

Next Monday evening there will be
things stirring in Lewistown's polit-

Charles S. Hartman will address a
Lewistown audience for the first time
in several years. Mr.. Hartman is
now engaged in one of those vigorous,
characteristic campaigns so we'll re-
membered by old-timers in this state,
and thus far he has been greeted by
the most enthusiastic audiences ever
gathering to listen to a political
Charley Hartman has been absent
from active participation on the firing
line for the past few years, he is still
one of the best known men in Mon
tana and has reputation as public
speaker second to none. His bitterest
political enemies give him credit for
being fair, square, courageous and
vigorous fighter, whose honesty of
purpose is unquestioned, and a man
who does not hesitate to speak out in
meeting, irrespective of which polit-
ical party might be hit by his criti-
cisms.
Upon the last occasion of Mr.. Hart
mans visit to Lewistown as a political
speaker, he came as republican. He
now comes as a democrat and candi-
date of the latter part for congress.
Although little earlier than the pres
ent insurgent leaders, Mr.. Hartman
arrived at the parting of the ways
with the republican party because of
its complete control by the stand
patters and its domination by the
monied interests of Wall Street His
insurgency extended little further
than that of Cummins and Dolliver.
1t goes without saying that Culver's
hall will be packed to its capacity
next Monday night.
Afternoon at Kendall.
Mr.. Hartman will arrive here on
the Monday morning train. and i'm
mediately after lunch will be taken to
Kendall in an automobile. where he
will deliver an address to the people
of that place at 4 o'clock Monday
