ADVANCED
viii Receive Early Hear
Ing in the Supreme
Court Of Land

Oklahoma city. Oct. 25.--word was
received Tuesday at the office Of At
torney General Charles West that the
supreme court Of the United states
had advanced the four Indian tax
cases from Oklahoma on its docket
and that the probabilities are that
they will be heard in the near future.
just how much money is involved in
these cases Is not known definitely,
but the total amount will run into
the hundreds Of thousands, if not mil
lions OF dollars.
When congress removed the restric-
tions on the lands owned by the Five
Civilized Tribes. it is claimed by the
state that the. land became subject to
taxation. These five tribes the
Cherokees. Choctaws. Creeks, Chick
saws and Seminoles. fought the pay
ment OF any taxes and have appealed
from one court to another and obtain
ed Injunetions against the collection
of the taxes for twenty-one years.
There are four of these cases, all
Of which have found their way to the
supreme court OF the land. One Of
these cases alone represents the con-
tentions Of ii 900 Indians. each Of
whom has 800 acres Of land. In
other words, twenty-one years taxes
on s,52O.OO0 acres Of the richest land
in Oklahoma is tied up in the one
case. And there are three more, each
Of which embraces almost as many
defendants.
The superior courts Of Pittsburg
and Logan counties have decided that
the taxes must be paid; SO has the
district court OF Tulsa county; the
supreme court Of Oklahoma decided
the same way: and Judge Ralph E.
Campbell Of the eastern district OF
Oklahoma made a similar finding in
the federal court at Muskogee. The
Indians have lost consistently. but
they have never vet been compelled
to pay the taxes. which are piling mp
every way. And it is claimed by As
sistant Attorney General Moore that
the supreme court has handed down
another decision sustaining the con-
tention Of the state that the taxes
should be paid.

The comrades do not seem to appre-
ciate the advantages of having a local
paper. Very few secretaries have sent in
anything for publication. not even an an
nouncement of the time and place of
their meetings. Our list is by no means
complete, and as the editor must work at
his trade every day or stop eating, which
would be inconvenient to say the least,
1t is not possible for him to visit every
branch to get the desired information.

Theodore Roosevelt will pass into his
tory as the colossal blunderer of the
twentieth century. AS he emerged from
the African jungle he was the popular
idol He was exploited in the magazines
as "the coming man." the impending
Roosevelt" the man of destiny" etc Ii
he had kept silence nothing could have
prevented his election to the presidency
in 1912; but that is not the Roosevelt
way; he must talk, and talk he did.
In Egypt he made his first break, an
tagonizing the progressive element in
that country. Then in Rome he succeed.
ed in getting the Pope and the Method
lists to pulling each others hair. He then
made his famous tour of the other cap.
itals of Europe. hobnobbing with kings
and emperors and invariably saying the
wrong thing at the wrong time. Finally
he came home, his head completely
turned by the adulation poured on, him
by the crowned heads of Europe and
swelled up like toad with the idea of
his tremendous Importance.
He found his party at home torn asun-
der in factional fight and for time he
watched, undecided which side would be
the most popular; his western trip decid-
ed him and he threw himself into the in
surgent ranks with hurrah. Returning
East, the conservative ideas of the money
York campaign he undertook to play a
double game with disastrous results
This drove him into retirement and for
several months there was profound ST.
lence in the vicinity of Oyster Bay.
After a time he emerged from his Sc
clusion and made another western trip.
In Arizona he condemned the recall of
judges, but when he reached California
he favored 1t because he saw that 1t was
popular in the coast state. Unfortunately
both speeches were published. At Berke-
ley he threw himself with characteristic
ferocity into the local campaign in ia
vor of the Republican candidate for
mayor. with the result that ]. Stitt Will
son, Socialist candidate, was elected by
a large majority.
In the outlook he assailed the labor
unions for trying to secure fair trial
for the kidnapped Mcnamara brothers and
his last bad break is his article in oppo-
sition to international arbitration to pre-
vent war.
Roosevelt went up like rocket. he
came down like stick.

Comrade Geo N. Falconer gave a
splendid address at upper Howe hall Sun
day night on the red flag He treated the
subject from the historic viewpoint.
showing that red had been the color of
the working class from the earliest times,
that the red flag was the flag under
which our Revolutionary fathers fought
at Bunker Hill, and that red predomi-
mates in every national flag except the
flags of Russia and China. He showed.
that it had always been the symbol OF re-
volt against tyranny, that it symbolized
the universal brotherhood OF man and
was hated by the bull, the goat and the
