YES; IT IS PRETTY TOUCH

can such a thing be IL our county
officials do their sworn duty Here
is $4,000 owing TO the county for
three years Why was not the law
complied with when the taxes be-
came delinquent the first year, This
county has been administered by Re-
publicans for three years. Did the
Capital buffalo the officials? What
other citizen or firm could dodge
taxes that long? Could Tom jenkins?
Gould the Arkansas Lumber company?
Could General Twamley? Could Capt
Taylor? Gould Nose Weinberger
No. YOU bet your life. no! Yet the
Capital has drawn $4,000 year from
the county treasury and fails to pay
its share Of taxes to the county for
three years. Great guns No won
der all the funds are exhausted. The
Capital has sure been a Jonah TO
Guthrie and Logan county. Had It
not stopped over and attacked the
Democratic state administration 50
viciously the capital would still be in
Guthrie. Temperate criticism Is all
right, but wholesale bludgeon at
taeks daily hurt Guthrie Let the

CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS
REFUSES A REVERSAL
Defendants Charged With iC-
quITIng Public Lands Through
Dummy" HOmaSteadeTS

Affirmations Of sentences in two
very important land cases tried in
Federal court here have been am
nounced by the United States circuit
court OF appeals The actions against
y. M. Hallock, the promoter OF a
Lig ranch scheme in Beekham com
ty, and j. NJ Simpson, cattleman
of Woodward, Beaver and other
northwestern counties, We're fought
through successfully by the district
attorneys Office here and it seems
from unofficial statemsnts tnat the
government has won at every point
ana that the two distinguished oil
tenders viii have to serve terms in
prison and pay fines.
Ha lock was indicted for suborna-
ton 1t was shown that he secured
agreements from a large number OF
Kansas school teachers to deed to
him and associates homestead lands
IN Beckham and Beaver counties.
They were boarded at the ranch
house and their expenses were paid.
They proved UP on claims, which
were decided to the Hallock combna-
tion. The government scored in
showing that the teachers had not at
the time Of entry any bona dde in
tentions Of settling the lands The
teachers were not indicted they not
being the beaefciaries Of the trans
actions.
Originally the indictments impli-
Gated a big fsh--much bigger chan
Hallock--one Carroll W. Gates, a
California millionaire. The attorney
general OF the United States finally
ordered the Gates case dropped II
being understood that prosecution
stopped with the agreement hat
Gates should turn back all lands ac-
quired in the deals in question. IT
was commonly asserted that Gates
was the real man in the deal, Hal
lock being more an agent than an
original exploiter
The Simpson case was for unlaw-
full enclosures Of lands in the north
western counties In other words,
his pastures became entirely 100
big TO suit the governments IDEAS
regarding public lands He was con
yicted of illegally taking grazing
lands
One Of the most important features
of the cases is that one OF the rul-
ings of Judge Marshal i'm the cases
against Ex-Governor Haskell and 9th
ers i'm the Muskogee town lot matter
appears to have bee noverruled by
eourt of appeals The official fe-
ports, however, will reveal whether
or NOT this is he case. 1t is assum-
ed here, however that they were in
effect oyerrued
The indictments against Hallock
and Simpson were returned by a Ter
ritorial grand jury OF sixteen mem
bers each. Evidently the court sns-
tanned the validity of the indictments
in affirming the sentences. If so
the Haskell cases come under the
same ri e. One of the claims of the
defense in those instances was that
the indictments We're returned by d
territorial grand jury of sixteen mem
bers and that suvh indictments could
not lie under statehood Judge Mar
shall practically sustained this 20
