passed by the Democratic House and
Republican Senate, yet the Demo-
cratic members of the legislature are
bound in honor to introduce bills
TO carry into effect each and every
reform to which the party stands

Democratic members are now pre-
pairing themselves to do this very
thing and demonstrate to the peo-

Viding for the sale of the segregated

lands to prospect for coal or as
phalt, also the right of underground
ingres and egress without compensa-
tion to the surface owner Such
lessees are further given the right
TO acquire such portion of the sur
face which may be reasonably neceS-
sary for prospecting or for conduct
ing mining operations.

ing TO approximately $4,000 acres,
is to be appraised by three persons,
whom the president names, making
four classiSiCations of the land az

sideration is to be given to all i'm
provements belonging to the Choctaw
and Chickasaw nations. The ap-
praisements are to be completed
within six months from passage Of
the act, and during deliberations Of

ing upon the surface value of the
property

ing that no payment shall be deferr-
ed longer than two years from the

praised value. The state of Oklaho
