FAMOUS INDIAN
SCOUT IS DEAD
MAN WHO ARGUED GERONIMO IN
TO SURRENDER sUccUMBs TO
ILLNESS.

Lawton, Okla, June 24.-George
Wratten, for twenty-eight years a
government scout, Indian Interpreter
and friend and Associate of the
Apache Indians, particularly famous
for the part he played in effecting the
capture of Geronimo. is dead, having
succumbed to protracted attack OF
spinal trouble brought on by expos
ure in caring for the Apache cattle
on the Fort Sill reservation. He will
be buried Tuesday afternoon on the
reservation, the funeral to be in
charge of Lawton Masons.
Wratten was a clerk in an Indian
traders store at San Carlos, Ariz.,
when he first knew Geronimo and
his band of Indians. That was in
1884. Two years later he was taken
on the Miles expedition against &C.
rorimo as scout and Interpreter, and
went ahead with Capt. Henry w.
Lawton to confer with the Apache
chieftain, arguing him into surrender
One of the terms of surrender was
that Wratten should be retained TO

LETTER TO THE CITIZENS LOVE, MURRAY AND CARTER
coun1,Es-s1ArEs coNTEN TioNs Of THREE cHA'HMEN AT
a MEETING RECENTLY

To the Citizens OF Love, Murray and
Carter Counties:
Having received several inquiries
in regard to the meeting of the three
county chairmen, w. II. Broadbent OF
Murray county, w. N. Krpbatrick
of Love county, and myself OF Carter
county, would state the actions OF
this meeting were only binding on
Mr.. Pennington and Mr.. Graham.
Carter, Love and Murray counties
constitute a double senatorial district
and in shaping the district it was un-
derstood that owing to the size and
population of Carter county, it should
have one of the senators all the time
and the other should alternate be
tween Love and Murray.
At the first election Mr.. Little OF
Murray county and Mr.. Graham OF
Love county were elected to the SEN
ate from this district Carter county
did not have a man in the race.
Mr. Little drew the short term and
Mr.. Graham the long term.
Soon after Mr.. Little's election and
before his term expired, he moved to
Carter county. At the expiration of
Mr.. Littles term, Harry X. Allen was
elected from this county and almost
Immediately after his election moved
to Oklahoma City. At the expiration
of Mr.. Graham's term in office, Mr..
Kendrlck of Murray county was elect
ed.
Murray didn't make any claims for
the next senator when Mr.. Little
moved to this county, and Murray by
her actions conceded it to Carter
county.
We Garter county, didn't claim the
next senator because Allen had moved
to Oklahoma City, but we thought it
right to give it to Murray county. and

it might have been. owing to the

have been in that section this
year, and the lack of snow also
made hunting difficult. They got

An effort will he made this
winter to have the legislature
make provisions for the building
of a residence for the governor
of Montana. Such a bill should
be passed, as the salary paid the
governor Of this state is not
sufficient to recompense him for
the outlay he must expend each
year. AS has been stated, it
may seem to some that a salary
of SIS, should be ample and
that it should be enough for
him to be able to save money,
but such is not the case. There
is much entertaining which he
must do, not altogether as an
individual citizen but as governor
of a great commonwealth and it
should not fall entirely on him to
bear the burden. 1t is stated
that Governor Norris will leave
the office a poorer man than
when he entered and has given
four years of the best part of his
life along with his cash. Of
course it might be possible for a
man to make both ends meet and
save a little from the salary, but
what would be said of him did
he economize in his every day
life to that extent. Then too,
were the governor paid a salary
or furnished a residence during
his term of office and some of the
bill for entertaining purely state
guests paid by the state, it would
remove any occasion for talk of
graft or the accumulation of
money from other than legiti-
mate scource. He would then
not be tempted to become a party
to any scheme to secure the
money necessary for his exis-
tence. There would not be such
a hue and cry about one being
Amalgamated or otherwise. Pro-
vide the sesidence for the COVER
nor by all means.

thereby to control that line to the
coast, thus effecting such con-
tinuity of the Union Pacific and
Central Pacific from the Mis-
souri, river to San Francisco as
was contemplated by the acts of
congress under which they were
constructed, it should be seen
that nothing herein shall be con-
sidered as preventing the gov
eminent or any party in interest,
if so desiring, from presenting
to the court a plan for accom-
plishing this result or preventing
the court from adopting any
plan so presented.
ANY plan or plans shall be
presented to the court within
three months of the receipt of
the mandate of this court, fail
ing which, or upon the rejection
by the court of plans submitted
within such time, the court shall
proceed by receivership and sale,
if necessary, to dispose of such
stock in such wise as to dissolve
such unlawful combination.
Tine government has appealed
from the decree. which is a gen
eral one, dismissing the bill. So
far as concerns the attempt to
acquire the Northern Pacific
stock and the stock of the Atch-
ison, Topeka & Sante Fe Railway
company, afterward abandoned
and certain interest in the San
Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake
Railroad company and other fea-
lures of the case dealt with and
disposed OF by the decree and
opinion of the court below, it is
sufficient, without going into
these matters in detail, to say as
to them, we find noreason to dis
turb the action Of the court be-
low, but for the reasons stated,
the decree shall be reversed and
one entered in conformity to the
views herein expressed, so far as
concerns the acquisition of the
Southern Pacific stock"
The court instructed "the Gil
cult court to retain it's jurisdic-
ton to see that the decree above
outlined is made effectual.
