Paul moved to table the resolution and
the association gave unanimous CON
sent to Gabe e. Parker of Academy
to address the assemblage. Mr. PR
ker is a young man of one sixteenth
Indian blood. He has charge OF Arin-
strong academy where a large mum
Der of the full blood Indian children
are in school. He made the most
eloquent speech the delegates had the
privilege of listening to. 1t was elo-
quent because it expressed al ear-
nest desire for the welfare OF the In
dian children. Mr.. Parker said he
had often been offered better paying
positions than the one he held bat he
had refused to leave his school work
He gave as his reasons for Devotion
to his own people the fact that at
time when his father was not aL'c TO
put him in school the Choctaw peo'
pie took him up, sen him through
the schools of the tribe and then sent
him to college. He said he had no
other way of proving his apprecia-
ton except to devote his life to the
interests of the Choctaw people and
he knew no better method than to
teach the youth of the tribe. He
said if the fullbloods were deprived
of their school they would not attend
the state schools, that they spoke
only broken English which embarrass-
ed them, they felt that the state
schools neglected them on account OF
their Indian blood and he pleaded elo-
ouently for the naintainence of the
n ibal schools. The motion was oct
but Mr.. Parker said he believed that
the discussion of the schools would
result in much good to them as the
Indians themselves are largely hot
acquainted with what their schools
are really doing.

DELEGATES SENT
To WASHINGTON
INDIANS WILL BE ACTIVE
THROUGHOUT SESSION Of
CONGRESS-.

At the late session OF the treaty
Rights association of the Chlckasaw
and Choctaw nations held Saturday
night the association agreed to push
with much energy their claims be-
fore congress at this session. 1t was
agreed to call for men who VIII
spend December, January and FeDru-
ary in Washington. One set OF
delegates will work through Deem
ber, another set in January and SO on

During the resent meath Hhe Two
Indian tribes will be represented IN
Washington by E. b. johnson OF

and DR.. j. H. Miller of Antlers.
In the deLate over the question
whether the coal royaltie hould be
spent for the education of the Chick
asaw and Choctaw children .rnere
was difference of opinion and a
lively debate was the result. Mart n
Cheadle, a brilliant Chickasaw lawyer
from Tishomingo opposed the rec
ommendation. His argument was
that the money derived from the coal
should be paid to the Indians ana
they be allowed to educate their
children they pleased. Col, DICK
Mclish favored the resoluticn. lie
said the funds were being spent
that way now ulld.r the terms oi Tie
Atoka agreement and that the funos
should be spent that way uutd sucn
time as the lands were sold. j.
Hamp Willis said the government
was misappropriating funds that II
was spending for the education o'
he Indian children and if the asso
citation indorsed the plan it wou.o
prohibit the nations from asking the
return of the money. q. W. Younl
of Benwyn made a strong speech IL
which he agreed with Mr.. Wills.
The position taken by Mr.. Young
was that the schools that were gooc
enough for the white children of OK
lahoma were good enough for the In
dian children and he said the govern
ment heretofore had been accustomed
tc sending teachers h'ie who caret
i'ttle for tho Indians but worked oni,
for their salaries and he was vio
lently opposed to the methods thai
had been followed in the past.
