SMALL ATTENDANCE
At CLUB MEETING
Committee Appointed to Assist in Sale
of Preferred Stock in Common
Sense Harrow Company.

There was not as large an attendance
at the meeting of the Commercial Club
last night as had been hoped for, but
the usual few faithful townpuilders
were there.
Owing to the small attendance there
was nothing definitely done at last
nights meeting, except to appoint a
committee to assist in the sale of stock
in the Common Sense Harrow COM
pany of this city. This action was
taken in response to the request of
lChas. A. Davidson and others, who
have purchased the state rights for
the manufacture and sale of this har-
row, and who propose to build a fac
tory here if sufficient amount of stock
can be sold. 1t is the plan of the COM
pany to sell preferred stock. That is
stock on which ten per cent is guar
|anteed to the purchasers. The club
offered it's cooperation in the sale of
the stock by appointing the committee
to assist in the sale
The matter of the stove factory men
toned in Thursdays Chieftain was re-
ferred to the manufacturing commit
tee, with instructions to ask the stove
company to give bond to guarantee
that if the club went to the expense
of erecting buildings that they would
be used by the company.
The advertising committee was iu-
structed to give as much publicity as
possible to the exhibit train of the
A. e M. college to be here next Fri
day.

HASKELL REFUSES TO STATE
WHETHER HE IS CANDIDATE

Oklahoma City, Jan. 20. - Former
Governor G. N. Haskell last night
would not affirm or deny that he will
be candidate for the United States
senate in 1912 against Senator Robert
l.. Owen. In his first public express
sion on that question the former gov
ernor said last night: THE senatorial
race is two years off and am not con-
corning myself about it now In a
week or two / propose to go to the
gulf coast for that fish l have been
promising myself. My unexpected re-
turn to Oklahoma City was on a mat
ter of personal business"
Judge C. M. Stuart of McAlester,
who has been mentioned as possible
candidate for the United States SEN
ate, said last night: Il will not be
candidate for that office, but will con-
tinue the practice of law" He will
form partnership at Oklahoma City
with A. C. Cruce, a brother of the
governor.
What is accepted as a rebuke to
United States Sen " Owen was a
speech made in the house yesterday
by Colonel Leslie P. Ross of Lawton,
in the primary race for gov
ernor against Cruce, in which he paid
high tribute to Governor Harmon and
expressed the belief that he will be
the democratic nominee for the presi-
dency. The senate adopted the
house resolution to invite Governors
Harmon, Wilson and Baldwin to ad-
dress the legislature.

K|CKAPOO DEEDS
DECLARED VOID
Judge CotteraI in Decision Thursday
Rules Against Purchasers OF Lands
of indians Near Shawnee.

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 20" Simply be-
cause an Indian of the United States
becomes nonresident, it is no reason
that the federal government should
abandon its obligation and protection
of his land rights in this country" de-
clared Judge John H. Cotteral of the
United States circuit court here in
holding yesterday that the deeds given
by Kickapoo Indians in Mexico to their
valuable land allotments near Shaw
nee, Oklahoma, are null and void be-
cause they were not approved by the
of the interior
The defendants expended 100000
in securing such deeds, a total of SO
cases being covered by Cotterals de-
cisions, the defendants including Cash
Cade, of Shawnee, republican national
committeeman; w. L. Chapman, for
mer secretary of the democratic state
Charles J. Benson and Will
lard Johnson, Shawnee bankers; A. L.
Brown, L. G. Grimes and others. Each
case represents an Indian allotment.
Cotteral's option is of the greatest
since it holds that the con-
gressional act of June q, 1906, which
removes the restrictions on Indian
lands does not however repeal the
treaty with the Kickapoo's and other
.ribes in 1891, and the act of 1893, con-
irming the treaty provisions which
placed the allotments in trust with the
'ederal government for twenty-five
years.

Loss Of TITLE USE TO
FIGHT EXTRACTION

Guthrie. Okla, Jan. 21.-Because
they lost their Kickapoo lands through
the decision Thursday of Federal Judge
ICotteral that their deeds should have
been approved by the secretary of the
interior, Attorney Joe Adams of Shaw
nee argued Friday before the federal
court that w. L. Chapman, DR.. r. c.
Conine, L, c. Grimes, and A. L. Brown,
all of Shawnee, should not be forced
to return to Coahuila, Mex, for trial
on indictments charging them with
using alleged fraudulent methods in
securing deeds to the Kiekapoo lands
near Shawnee. The defendants are
fighting extradition.
For the government, United States
Attorney Embry, in his argument was
very severe on the defendants. max
ing the point that they had chosen
Coahuila as the place for their opera
tions inseeuring the deeds and now
they should not object therefore to re-
turning there for trial. An early de-
cision by United States Commissioner
Tibbetts is expected. The defendants
will appeal to the United States SUI
preme court if necessary.

HITCHCOCHS ECONOMY
PLAN MEETS CRITICISM

Washington, jan 20. Postmaster
General Hitchcocks economy of ad-
ministration in the postofTice depart
ment came in for sharp criticism at
the hands of several members of the
house of representatives yesterday dur
ing the consideration of the postotfice
appropriation bill.
Borland of Missouri was among
those who declared that the economy
plans were seriously affecting the ef-
ficiency of the postal service, especial
ly on the rural free delivery and star
routes.
They said that while the department
did not hesitate to create a deficiency.
in one branch of the service, it was
declining to spend $1,70O,00O of the ap-
allowed by congress for
an increase in the rural routes. Mr..
Small asserted that when congress
provided for additional service, its will
should not be thwarted by executive
action.

FILES REPLY TO BRIEF Of
ATTORNEYS FOR GUTHRIE:

Oklahoma City, Jan. 21-Attorney
General West and attorneys represent.
ing Oklahoma City in the capital re-
moval litigation, Friday filed a reply
to the Guthrie brief with the supreme
court. Tho reply makes only casual
reference to the alleged binding effect
of the Oklahoma enabling act and calls
the courts attention to its former hold
ing that the act, as well as the con-
vention's irrevocable ordinance accent
ing the same, were not binding.
AS to the allegation that the con-
Vention's ordinance was either a part
of the constitution or legislative act
of higher than constitutional status.
the reply refers to the courts opinion
in the former case, wherein the cleo
ton of June II was held to be not
legal, and the Oklahoma City attorneys
assume that the court held in that
opinion that the conventions ordin-
ance was nothing more than a statute
which the legislature was capable of
repeating.
Upon this theory Governor Haskell
convoked the legislature in special ses-
sion in Oklahoma City and a removal
act was passed. The brief also argues
that the legislature had a right to con-
yene at point other than the recog-
nized seat of government.
