MILLIONS IN CLAIMS
AGAINST CHOCTAWS
NOTICES OF LIENS FILED BY J. &.
ARNOLD INVOLVE APPROxl-
MATELY MILLION DOLLARS.

Awaiting the outcome of suit now
pending in the United States court OF
claims, according to information re
ceived from Washington last night
notice OF lien has been filed against
the land allotted to the 1859 Choc
taw Indians, who left Mississippi
seven years ago and settled in the
Choctaw and Cherokee nations. Each
proposed lien is for 81 1,500. involving
approximately s1,OOOOOO.
This action involves thousands of
acres of fertile land scattered through
ten or more counties in southern Ok
lahoma. 1t is based on a special act
OF congress, approved May 29, 1908,
which provided that all of the lands
allotted to the so-called Mississippi
Choctaws were subject to the claims
Of Charles F. Winton, now deceased,
and others who were authorized by
congress to sue for transporting the
Mississippi immigrants to the then In
dian territory.
The notices of liens, which are said
to have been recorded in all of the
counties in which land owned by Mis-
sissippi Choctaws are situated, We're
filed by James T.. Arnold as one OF
the defendants in the suit authorized
by congress two years ago.
The suit for services as agent and
attorney for the Mississippi Indians,
alleged 81 500 due from each of them,
in addition to numerous expense
items, including board and clothing,
transportation from Mississippi etc,
was set for trial before the court of
claims at Washington on March 2S,
but was continued, Pending a hear
ing, Arnold served notice on all who
have purchased land from the Choc-
taws affected or who contemplate pur-
chase that he will proceed to collect
such amount as may be awarded by
the court of claims.-Oklahoma

A is FOR SULLIVAN.
All Lodges in This State Will Have
Representatives at Supreme Lodge.

,Jackson.-Mississippi will send a big
delegation to the annual meeting OF the
supreme lodge of Elks at Atlantic City
during the second week in July to
work for the election Of Col. John L.
Sullivan, of New Orleans, to the office
of supreme exalted ruler.
Each of the twenty-three lodges in
this state will be represented, and the
famous Cotton Pickers lodge at Green
vile has arranged to u a special train
from that place to Atlantic City, carry
ing a majority of the delegates from the
local lodges in Mississippi.
At the recent annual meeting of the
Mississippi Association of Elks in Green
vile a resolution offered by Mayor A.
G. Crowder, of this city, was unani-
mously adopted pledging support to COL
Sullivan, and on the following day the
DISTINGUISHED New Orleans candidate was
a guest of the convention. Mayor Crow
der. by the way, is a member of the
committee on credentials of the supreme
lodge, and will attend the Atlantic City
meeting to work for Col. Sullivan. The
general belief among Mississippi mem
bers of the fraternity is that he will be
elected on the first ballot.

COTTON SEED CROP.
Results Obtained in Several
Southern States in 1910.
Proven ConcIusIveIy That the Yields
Of Cotton and Corn May Be
Doubled by Carrying Out DEM
onstratlon Methods.

The late DR.. S. A. Knapp, then spe-
cial agent in charge Of the farmers
cooperative demonstration work, COM
piled the following results obtained by
the thousands of demonstrators In
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana and Mississippi in the year
of 1910:
The demonstrators in Alabama made
an average Of 1220.2 pounds OF seed
cotton and 41.5 bushels Of corn per
acre. The state average for 1910 IN
cotton in Alabama was 474 pounds
and in corn IS bushels. The demon
strators in Arkansas made an aver
age Of 914.3 pounds Of seed cotton and
1863 bushels of corn per acre. The
state average in cotton in Arkansas
was 525 pounds and in corn "a bushels.
The demonstrators in Florida made
an average of 572 pounds of seed cot
ton and % bushels Of corn per acre.
The state average In cotton in Flori-
da was 339 pounds and in corn 10
bushels. The demonstrators in Georgia
made an average Of 1894 pounds OF
seed cotton and 1874 bushels Of corn
per acre. The state average in Geor-
gia was 522 pounds of cotton and l4'6
bushels Of corn. The demonstrators
in Louisiana made an average Of
1872 pounds of seed cotton and S5.z
bushels of corn. The state average in
Louisiana was 800 pounds of seed cot
ton and 23.6 bushels Of corn per acre
The demonstration farmers In Missis-
sippi In 1910 made an average OF
l943.7 pounds of seed cotton and AT
bushels Of corr per acre. The state
average was 519 pounds Of seed cotton
and 2O.5 bushels Of corn per acre.
The above results prove conclusive
ly that the Yields Of cotton and corn
may be doubled by carrying out the
demonstration methods.

BAPTIST GIRLS COLLEGE.

Plan Formed to Locate One in the
Capital City.
Jackson.-A Jackson philanthropist,
whose identity has not been divulged,
has offered to donate to the Mississippi
Baptist convention a beautiful wooded
tract, about sixty acres in extent, To-
Gated in the suburbs of the city, provid-
ing it is used as the site for a female
college.
1t is more than likely that the do
nation will be accepted when the con-
vention holds its annual session at
Gulfport in December. The offer meets
with the approval of the leaders OF the
denomination who have had in mind Tor
some time the establishment of a Bap-
fist college for girls in this city.
There are now two Baptist colleges
for young ladies in the state, Hillman
College at Clinton and Blue Mountain
College at Blue Mountain, but neither are
owned or controlled by the Baptist state
convention, both being under the direc-
ton of individuals, and both have been
filled to overlooking at each session IN
recent years, making it necessary Tor
Baptist girls to go to other states to
get education.

Sackson.-Gov. Noel issued the follow
ing proclamation upon a subject in
which he is deeply interested;
The State of Mississippi,
Executive Department.
One of the evidences of the attain
ment Of a high civilization BY eon-
munities is the building and maintain
ing of frst-class roads. Rome, whose
administration Of law and government
stands out most prominently of all
ancient nations, realized that good roads
were a necessary adjunct to its admin
istration. Aside from the use Of their
great highways for military purposes
their perfect roadways tended to bring
into closer touch the most distant parts
Of the empire and served as. arteries
through which flowed the great COM
merce Of the mother city. The roads
built by the Romans in Great Britain
and France are still in evidence and
show that they were built for the future
and not the then present.
Our state is awakening to the I'm
portance of this great problem. The
whole country Is aroused to the neces-
Sity Of affording a safe, convenient and
permanent means of communication be-
tween the urban and suburban popula-
ton. Good roads cheaper the cost of
hauling and transportation; bring com
munities closer together. 1t is esti-
mated that the saving in wear and tear
Of vehicles and the transportation OF
larger roads more than pays for their
initial cost and maintenance.
In order to arouse interest In this
great problem, 1t has been deemed Gd'
visabIe that q statewide road confer
ence be called to meet in Jackson or
October 25th and 96th, 1911.
Wishing to emphasize the Importance
Of this gathering and to give my hearth
est endorsement to 1t I hereby issue
my proclamation designating October q
and 26, 1911, as the date for a state
wide road conference. / earnestly urge
that a large delegation from every sec
ton Of the state attend and suggest
that they be designated as follows;
Ten delegates to be appointed by eaci
supervisor; ten by the mayor of eacl
village, twenty-five by the mayor o
towns; ten to be appointed by tn
aldermen in cities, from their ward, an'
twenty-five by the mayor from the cit!
at large; the president of each local o
the Farmers Union is urged to nam
five men from his local and the count!
president twenty-five from the county a
large. Every industrial, business, agri
cultural, horticultural or live stock OF
ganization is asked to name at leas
one man for every ten members. 1t
also urged that all state, county an
municipal officers attend.
Parties appointing delegates, or de
string to attend will please correspon
with Hon. H. E. Blakeslee, Jackson
Miss. It is also desired that appoint
ments when made will be given to tn
local newspapers. -.

WANT TO SOAK CANDIDATES.
fAOse Running for State Offices Object
to Being Stung.

Jacsson.-Some of the candidates fm
state Offices are in receipt of adyices
to the effect that various counties are
preparing to levy an assessment on them
and other candidates to pay the per
diem of election officers in the pri-
maries. Moreover, that a heavier as
sessment is being put on the state can
didates than the county and beat off
GERS, and it is a burden which they do
not feel like standing.
As a matter of fact it is against the
law and somebody is likely to get in
trouble over it. The law is very plain,
being section 3713 of the code Of 1905,
and is as follows:
Each political party shall defray all
expenses incident to it's primary cleo
tions, such expenses to be nc charge on
state or county; but no political party
shall pay out of any funds received
wholly or in part from it's candidates,
anything for the personal services or
time of its precinct officers o. execu.
tive committees.
"The cost of printing ballots and
transmitting ballot boxes and booths
shall be fairly apportioned by the county
executive committee, among the candi
dates to be voted for in such primaries
county district candidates bearing theil
pro rata. The above expenses are the
only expenses chargeable against can
didates or executive committees. Nc
candidate for state or district offices
shall be assessed more than are candi
dates for county Offices"
