SUNDAY AND THE MAILS.

It is not piety that controls Uncle
Sam in ordering that after September
no mail shall be delivered on Sun
day to the general public. The deliy-
cry of special delivery mail 90 cents
piece) will continue as formerly, and
the railway mail clerks will work on
Sunday. In the postoflice will be
clerks to handle mail in transit. 1t
appears tnat there is to be Sunday en-
ergy for the benefit of those at dis
tance. but not for the benefit of the
home folks.
If It is not piety that led to the in
sertion OF the prohibition of the plac-
ing of mail in lock boxes on Sunday
and the making of arrangements by
which hotel keepers could get mail for
their patrons, then what was it? The
only possible explanation is that a
summer in Washington was too much
for the congressional brain and that
it added.
The business and travelling public
will protest against this foolish re-
striction. 1t would not have imposed
it If the public had realized what was
proposed. The clerks employed in
Sunday distribution (only a few are
necessary now receive extra compen-
sation and have not asked for a
change. 1t would be much more log
ical to stop the Sunday movement of
mail trains than to forbid the delivery
of mail to it's owner when it has arriv-

years before any portion of Oklahoma

The three decades the Chieftain has
covered marked a wonderful transition
in the history of what was once the

struggling Indian village of not over
500 population and this country was
an unsettled domain of stretches of
prairie and timber lands unfenced and
