TOO LATE BABIES HAVE
CHANCE SAYS HASTINGS

Muskogee, Okla, Nov. THE Unit
ed States circuit court of appeals has
affirmed the decision of the lower court
in the famous Gritts- Muskrat case
which has been before the courts since
early in 1906, according to telegram
received yesterday by w w. Hastings
of Tahlequah, attorney for the Chero-
kee nation, from Assistant Attorney
General Chas. W. Cobb.
The decision holds that congress has
full power to legislate as in the act of
April 26, 1906, better known as the
too late baby case" The action which
was recently ruled upon by the court
of appeals, was brought in the interest
of children who were born after the
closing of the rolls by act of congress

INDIAN LANDS OFFERED FOR
SALE BY COUNTY OFFICERS

Oklahoma City, Nov Tn spite of
the fact that Chief Justice John b.
Turner of the state supreme court had
granted a supersedeas in the Indian
tax cases, directing the county treas
urers and other officers of the twenty
two counties in which the land is To-
Gated not to proceed further in at
tempting to collect the 1910 taxes until
a decision has been reached by the SUI
preme court of the United States, the
lands were offered for sale in four
counties, and on Monday, Attorneys J.
IF. McMurray of Muskogee and w A.
Ledbetter of this city, maed a formal
application to the state supreme court
Monday asking them to forbid any fur
ther proceedings.
This the court refused to do as The
United States supreme court has al
ready assumed jurisdiction and advanc-
ed the cases for early hearing, but As
sistant Attorney General c. L. Moore
was called on in the absence of Attor-
ney General Charles West, who is in
Enid, and it was decided that the fair
thing to do would be to telegraph the
county treasurers of Grady, Garvin,
Marshall and Murray counties, the four
in question advising them to refrain
from further action at this time, and
this was done.
There are four of these Indian tax
cases, and as the lands involved are
those belonging to the Cherokees, Choc.
taws, Creeks, Chickasaws and Semi
noles, it can readily be seen that the
amount involved will run into hundreds

WOULD LOCATE FEED MILL
FACTORY At JOPLIN, MO.

The following article appeared in the
Joplin Globe this morning:
J. C. Woodcock of Vinita, Okla, has
written to the Joplin Commercial Club,
declaring that he desires to remove the
Woodcock Manufacturing company
from the Oklahoma town, and that he
would be glad to locate the factory here
provided the local club will lend him
its assistance in making the change
Mr.. Woodcock mentioned three rea-
sons for his desire to withdraw from
Oklahoma Freight rates in and out
of Vinita are given by the writer as
his first cause for disliking the present
location. Takes also are ruinous, :"
continues the dissatisfied manufacturer
land then BESIDES" he adds, this To-
cality does not agree with some of my
family"
Secretary Frank Yale of the CONNER
cial Club has replied to the letter of in
quiry, urging the Vinita resident to at
tend a session of the local club at an
early date, when his plan may be laid
before the members and some action
taken toward effecting the addition of
a manufacturing industry to Joplin's
business directory.
The Woodcock Manufacturing COM
pany makes several varieties of feed
and hay grinding machinery.

of thousands of dollars, if not millions.
No taxes have ever been paid on these
lands, and it is the contention of the
state that they were due for the last
three years at least, as the restrictions
were removed from the lands in 1908.
1t is possible that an effort will be
made by citizens of Garvin county to
collect the taxes by mandamus, as the
Indian lands constitute a large per
cent of the countys wealth. and with.
out the taxes on them, the county gov.
ernment will have trouble in paying
running expenses.
"The effort to force the collection of
these taxes now comes mostly from the
tax ferrets,' said Judge Ledbetter
Monday evening. There has never
been any clash between the attorney
generals Office and the attorneys for
the Indians, as we are all disposed to
wait until the question is finally de-
cided, without making any unnecessary
expense for anybody If any of the
county officers undertake to sell these
lands for taxes now, we will have them
cited for contempt before the United
States supreme courS at Washington
ID. c."
These tax cases have been in the
courts ever since the restrictions were
removed. The Indians have lost in the
inferior courts of the state and in the
state supreme court, and it is the opin
ion of the attorney generals Office that
the state is sure to win in the United
States supreme court. In the mean
time the taxes are tied up.

PUBLIC DRINKING FOUNTAIN
GIFT FROM JUDGE PARKER

A sanitary bubbling fountain of the
latest design is being installed today
at the Auditorium corner of Wilson
street and Illinois avenue. The foun-
tain is a gift to the city of Judge L. F.
Parker. The material Of which the
fountain is constructed resembles por-
celian but is of far more durable new
metal, said to be indestructable. 1t has
been approved by all of the leading as
sociations and is in great demand. It
took three months for Judge Parker's
order to be filled by the factory. The
fountain is low enough for children to
drink from it. 1t is fitted with a faucet
so as not to reb the bucket brigade
that carries water from the well for
daily use. There is also key so that
the water may be cut off to keep from
freezing in cold weather

LUMBER INDUSTRY LINKED
WITH IRRIGATION PROJECT

Spokane, Wash, Nov 1-Closely
linked with the rapid and substantial.
development of irrigation projects in
the west and the southwest is the sue
cess of numbering in the Pacific north
west The industry owes and always
will owe more to reclamation of land
by scientific methods than to any other
single contributing factor in the pro-
gress and expansion Of its natural mar
ket territory.
This view was expressed by George
M. Cornwall editor and publisher of
The Timberman at Portland, Ore, in
the course of an interview during his
stay in Spokane. Continuing, he said:
"A study of the country east and
west of the Continental Divide and
south of the international boundary,
embracing the great states of North
Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho,
Montana, Oregon, Washington, Cali
fornia, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico,
Oklahoma and Texas, makes one rea-
llize the enormous extent of the terri
tory in which, at least in part, irriga-
tion is and always must remain the
dominant factor in its ultimate de-
velopment and growth
'eTo the lumbermen operating in
Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon
and California, who produced more
than S,OOO0OO,OOO feet of lumber in
1910, the difficulty of finding market
for their lower products of lumber has
always been problem, which has miti-
gated against the highest development
of the industry This condition can
only be overcome by enlarging the
home market. Conservative lumber
ing is dependent entirely upon freight
rates. The cost of transportation must
ever bear a relative significance to the
value of the article to be marketed, or
the traffic will not more freely Hence,
the western lumber interests, If they
hope to be successful, must lend every
assistance to building up and creating
a home market for their common
grades of lumber, which approaches so
lper cent of the tree.
Despite the enormity of the terri
tory covered by Colorado, Wyoming
North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah
Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon
California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mex
leo and other states, the natural zone
in which western lumber should fine
its chief distribution, nature has de
creed that the thirsty and productive
soil must first be watered before set
tlement and its consequent demand fol
lumber is possible, except on very
limited scale Thus, the intimate re
lationship between irrigation md the
lumber industry of the west IS easily
discernible.
But what particular interest docs
the cause or irrigation bear to thC
great producers of lumber lying soutF
of the Ohio river, and why should they

other lumbermen to throw their
strength in behalf of the cause of irri-
cation. 1t was self protection. Il
meant a larger market for southern
yellow pine. not only by possibly
checking the aggressions Of their west
ern neighbors. but in Texas. Colorado,
Wyoming, New Mexico and Nebraska,
where they were already doing bust
ness, and where national irrigation
projects were being developed
To-day, but for the results which
have accrued from the development of
the west and southwest from irrigation,
the market for western lumber would
have been much less tha nit is. With
out irrigation there would scarcely be
a foot of lumber sold in many valleys
of Washington and Idaho except for an
occasional ranchman's shanty. Cali
fornia alone imported from the states
of Oregon and Washington by cargo
10000, 900 feet of lumber in 1910.
The bulk of this lumber was consumed
within the state, or a portion reshipped
to Nevada, Arizona ard New Mexico.
1t is safe to say that without irriga-
tion in the states mentioned probably
less than 10 per cent of this lumber
would have been consumed This vast
amount Of lumber represents only a
portion of the lumber consumed in the
Estates mentioned
"In tensified farming, made possible
by irrigation, is the mainstay of the
western lumbermen. When the coun.
try is settled in small farms and or.
chards the consumption of lumber per
capita is large obviously The reverse
is true where wheat raising or stock
farming predominates.
Irrigation makes possible the high
est utilization of the tree, by providing
home market within zones where
transportation charges are not pro
hibitive. 1t creates a steady and in
creasing demand for lumber hence the
Ilumberman SHOULD give literally to
their substance to promote in every
way possible broad and comprehen
sive national and state policy in deal
ing with either public or private irri
CATION. Irrigation is the hand-maider
of numbering. The irrigationist ant
lumberman must work together.
/ THE National Lumber Manufactur
ers' Association should take a fore
most place at every session of the Ma
tional Irrigation Congress, especial!
the convention in Chicago, Decembe
5 to 8, and lend its influence, whicl
ramifies to every state in the union, il
behalf of the cause of irrigation, t.
which the lumber industry of tht

very existence"
