Ex- Congressman Davenport Would Be Glad to
Show Copy to All Interested Supplemental
Report of Special Commissioner Printed
3O,827 Names Now Upon Emigrant
Rolls---No Doubt Payment Will
Soon Be Made.

Ex-Congressman James S. Daven-
port has received copy of the ap-
proved roll of Eastern Cherokees, and
the same may be seen by anyone in
terested, at the Office of Mr.. Daven-
port in this city.
The supplemental report of Guion
Miller, special commissioner to make
the roll of Eastern Cherokees, has
been printed and the entire roll was
approved by the court on March IS,
1910. There are now upon the roll
30,S27 names. On January /, 1910,
there was $4,106,O00 Of this fund.
Since that time, interest has accumu-
lated up to March 18th, the date Of
the final approval Of the roll, of about
$11 900 or five per cent of Sill, ,2S4.70
The interest added to the principal will
aggregate in round numbers $4,117,-
900. From this same little current ex-
penses will have to be deducted
and the expenses of making the pay
ment, so that in round numbers there
will be S4,100,000 to be distributed
among those whose names are upon
the approved roll. In other words, it
will amount to about $133 each,
have not the slightest doubt but that
the payment will begin sometime in
the month of May. The roll has been
appropriated and certified copy Of
the roll has been transmitted by the
court of the treasury department. 1t
will now only be necessary to have
the expense account of Guion Miller
up to March Is, 1910, the date of the
final approval of the roll approved,
and the interest calculated upon the
money due the Eastern Cherokees up
to that date, when the treasury de-
partment will deduct the amount al
lowed as expenses for making this
payment and the rest will then be
pro rated so that it can be definitely
determined the pro rata share that
will be due each person enrolled. AS
soon as this can be done-and it will
be within week I am sure--the
treasury department will begin writing
cheeks in the names of the persons
enrolled. of these there will be 30,S27
and it is estimated that it will re-
quire between thirty and sixty days.
The court has already entered a final

RULES COMMITTEE
SLATE SELECTED
No Insurgents Are to Be Given Birth
on the New Rules Committee
Of the House.

Washington, D. c., Mar. %
Through the maze of speculation re
garding the probable personnel of the
enlarged rules committee of the house
there was developed Tuesday slate
for the republican membership in that
body. Several conferences were held
and as result it is understood the
members of the committee may be
selected on geographical basis. The
tentative slate is divided into groups
out of which the leaders expect one
each to be chosen. The groups fol
low;
Dalzell Of Pennsylvania, Smith OF
Iowa, Mccall of Massachusetts, J.
Sloat Fassett of New York, Boutell Of
Illinois or Longworth of Ohio, Young
of Michigan or Stevens of Minnesota
Smith of California or Hawley of Ore
gon or Howell of Utah.
from this slate the six republican
members of the committee of ten may
be selected at the republican caucus
tomorrow night. This list of probable
selections does not include single
insurgent republican.
Republican leaders take the position
that only by rock-ribbed, unfiinch.

transact any effective business. They
contend that the insurgents made a
mistake in fixing the membership of
the committee at ten instead of some
odd number and that it plainly made
impossible the inclusion of any in
surgent republicans.
1t was said by the regular repub-
licans that to, permit the inclusion of
an insurgent as one of the six would
give him as great power as the
speaker has enjoyed in that he would
doubtless consult his insurgent col
leagues on every move, and that the
regulars would have to agree with
him or else leave the committee sub
ject to a tie vote of five to five in case
the insurgent chose to vote with the
four democrats who are to be select
ed in caucus Thursday night. Most of
the insurgents disavow any desire
for specific representation from their
hranoh of tha nartv
Representative Hittigen of Iowa, the
insurgent who has drafted resolu-
ton proposing on committee on COM
mittees, said that he had finally de-
cided to introduce that measure at
the first favorable opportunity.

NJ NEAL TALKS TO
V|N|TA REPUBLICANS
First Cannon In Race For Republican
Nomination For Governor Fired
Here Tuesday Night.

ooh, Consistency thou art a
jewel" was most glaringly exemplifi
ed at the republican pow WOW at the
Auditorium last night, at which Joe
McNeal, the ex-banker of Guthrie was
principal exhibit. Joe came to town
yesterday afternoon to mix medicine
with the local adherents of the G. o.
P. and the meeting at the Auditorium
was called for the purpose of per
mitting the wordy gubernatorial can
didate to tell ''how I will run the gov
ernment of this state when l get to
be governor"
McNeal is really good talker and
had there not been few people pres
ent, who really went to hear if he
would say anything and not just make
noise, his speech might have set well
but the inconsistency of his argu-
ment caused waning of faith among
many of his hearers.
One of the most conspicuous ex-
amples of inconsistency was the ex-
bankers spiel about the terrible laws
of Oklahoma. He said that the laws
were such that capital was afraid to
come within the confines of this
state, and what was here could not
yield fair income, and then a few
minutes later told of his immense sue
cess as banker during the last year
that he was in the business at Guth-
rie. In order to show that he is a
business man with capacity to man
age a great state he pointed out these
thousands that he had made under The
terrible laws inflicted upon this COM
monwealth by a conscienceless demo-
cracy."
After it was all over the few faith
fuls present gathered around to as
sure him of their support, and then
went home and probably forgot about
him, except that he looks like an Irish
man, but can talk, too much.

INQUIRE IN BAD
WITH HOME FOLKS
First District May Resent Action of
Bird Seed During the Cannon
Outbreak in House.

Enid, Okla, March 23.-Events at
Washington the past week are believ-
ed to have very serious If not fatal
effect on the candidacy of Bird s. Nc
Guire for denomination. Copies of
McGuire's original platform have been
dug up, the platform on which he was
elected the last time, and it is found
that one Of the promises which he
circulated broadcast over the district
through his campaign committee was
as follows:
Il shall work and vote for revis-
ion of the rules of the house, for the
election of the committee on rules by
the members OF the house and against
its appointment by the speaker, and
for the elimination of the speaker
from said committee"
On every ballot taken last week
Congressman Mcclure voted with the
Cannon men and against the program
for the revision of the rules as pledg-
ed in his platform. That his vote and
his pledges to his constituents are
completely at variance no one dis
putes His friends, however, claim
that the plank of his platform commit
ting him to a revision of the rules and
a change in the rules committee was
written by Judge CARRIER and did not
express the real sentiments of Con-
gresham Mcclure. It is not denied
however, that Mcclure made his cam
paign on this platform. The two men
are now opposing each other for the
Judge CARRIER standing
where he did two years ago, having
himself in December be-
fore the crisis in congress came, as
for the reforms against which Nc
CURE voted last week.

decree directing the distribution OF
this money. The checks under the de
cree of the court are to be delivered
to adults in person, and to the par.
ents or natural guardians of minors
where no legal guardian has been ap.
pointed, and to the heirs of deceased
persons. No additional order of any
court is necessary. The money has
been appropriated by congress and
there is really nothing to do before
the payment can begin except, as
h. reinabove indicated: The approval
Of the expense account of Mr.. Miller
the pro ratio of the amount due each,
and the writing of the checks by the
treasury department for delivery by
Mr.. Miller. Mr.. Guion Miller has
been appointed by the court to de-
liver these checks and as soon as he
can find out when the checks will be
ready to be delivered to him by the
treasury department he will give pub
lie notice through the press when he
will visit Oklahoma to deliver them.
Everyone appreciates how very anx-
ious the citizens of Oklahoma are to
have this payment made, and every
one here is cooperating to expedite
1t as much as possible.

ROUTE FOR OSAGE
WESTERN IS GOOD
Expert Engineers Complete Tour o.
Inspecton-Meeting of Citizens
Saturday Morning.

Vice-President Clarence Walters, of
the Usage Western railroad and Fred
Hume, representing eastern capital or
rather the consulting engineer for
eastern capitalists returned late yes
terday afternoon from a trip over the
route of the proposed new railroad,
and Mr.. Hume spent today here in
vestigating local conditions. They will
go to Galena this evening.
Mr.. Walters met with a number of
the citizens at the Commercial club
rooms this morning and again discuss
ed the plans of building the new road.
At this conference it was decided to
cali meeting of the citizens at the
Commercial club at $3.50 Saturday
morning for the purpose of closing up
the bonus contract with Mr. Walters.
The vice president said he would re-
turn to this city, in order to attend
this meeting.
In regard to his estimate of the fin
ancial outlook of the road Mr.. Hume
had no definite statement to make,
but from his account of the trip, it is
evident that he is much impressed
with the possibilities of such line.
