Farmers Able to Buy.
The farmers are the subject Of
severe criticism for their extravaganza
in buying automobiles. Yet. the very
fact that they are doing so is the un-
derlying reason for their being able
to buy them. More plainly speaking,
the farmers are getting their automo-
biles and in fact are getting them
without cost This statement, upon
first thought, may appear absurd; but
let us reverse the process OF reason
ing and see if il is not true.
The farmers by expanding millions
of dollars for the comforts and enjoy
ments of life--eyen for the Injuries
I If you will--are creating enormous OPP
portunities for the employment OF
labor. The employment of that labor

resulting Increase in the value of what

each OSAGE INDIAN
IS WORTH $4,000
But The Redskins Have Been The
Victims of Many Skin Games And
\ Shady Professional Transactions in
The Recent Past.
(Bg Associated PreSo.)

Pawhuska, Okla, Aug. 26.-When
the select committee appointed by
the House of Representatives to inves-
tigate alleged Indian land frauds met
yesterday it was discovered that the
Usage Indians had been made the
principals in many financial transac-
tions.
Some of the transactions are to be
called to the attention of Congress.
For 495 acres of land, Stewart Cho-
teau, part-breed Usage, received in
actual cash 1912, he testified before
the committee.
"On March 20 last said Choteau,
who is 23 years old, 81 received GER
tificate of competency allowing me
to manage my own affairs as regards
my part of the tribal lands. Five
days later s. Sands got me to sign a
deed to 100 acres, for which he was
to give me 4. $1,000. He kept
the $1,000 to pay him for
some furniture and buggy l bought
from him. Ten days later he called
me up and said he wanted to buy 1886
acres more.
IN the meantime l had borrowed a
small sum of money from him, so he
gave me 1872 for the 335 acres and
kept the rest. That $372 was all the
cash | ever got for the 495 acres. l
never asked how much the property
was worth, but left that all to Sands.
He knew all about it, so left it to
him."
Mrs. Rivard, a part-breed Usage,
and mother of Choteau, testified that
she had protested to Washington
against the issuance of certificate
of competency to her son, but the GER
tifcate was issued and the land sold
without her knowledge. She said:
The case was taken as typical of
many others in which the Indians dis
posed of their allotments apparently

of the contending candidates, Hon.
Adam Byrd, the present congressman

BYRDs FRIENDS DOUBTFUL.

Immediately following the con-

headquarters a telephone conver-

quarters. Here it was claimed
that Byrd now leads by seventy
five or eighty votes, but that only
small parts of Smith and Leake
counties had been heard from. 1t
was reluctantly admitted that
prior to the election these coun-
ties had been conceded to With
erspoon, but that Byrd seemed to
be running stronger there than
was anticipated. The Byrd head

the nature of his mission. With re-
