BLOW TO SHIPPERS.

Fort Smith, Ark, June 1.-The news
of the United States supreme courts
adverse ruling on liquor shipments
into Oklahoma came as a bombshell
to local liquor dealers, who for years
have been supplying the border coun-
ties of the state with practically their
entire liquor supply.
Fort Smith liquor interests aver
they raised $1,000 to prosecute the
case and according to the informa-
ton they received from their attor-
neys, the case decided Monday would
be decided in favor of the dealers.
That the decision will cause a num-
Der of saloons to withdraw from bust
ness here is admitted. Since the fed
eral court of appeals in decision re-
strained local marshals from Selling
liquor destined for points in the In
dian country where the Indian title
had vanished, unless the officer was
armed with a seizure writ, the
marshal's office here has been idle,
but with Mondays decision, an early
resumption of liquor seizures is an

this district that will be affected by
this ruling.
Heretofore bootleggers have evaded
the federal laws in the matter of TAX
ing whisky into Indian territory by
first shipping the whisky to some
point within Oklahoma and outside Of
the Indian territory and then taking
it into the Indian territory. Inas-
much as the transaction was not in
terstate the bootleggers asserted that
federal officers had no jurisdiction
over them.
The general policy of the govern
ment to interfere in any matter which
affects the Indian was reasserted in
the decision handed down Monday.
This right is given the government by
reason of the fact that the Indian is .
government ward.

AN IMPORTANT RULING.

Oklahoma City, Okla, June 2.-This
ruling is regarded by Judge w. B.
Herod, assistant United States attor-
ney for the western district of Okla
homa and the man who handles the
major portion of the liquor cases in
this district, as one of vast importance
in the enforcement of prohibitory
laws in Indian territory. The ruling,
the judge asserted, is exactly con-
trary to former decisions in such mat
tiers and will set precedent that will
be used as guide in subsequent cases.

SUPREME COURT DECLARES
EASTERN KLAHO MA
INDIAN TERRITORY.

Washington, D. c., June 2.-Last
Monday, the United States supreme
court again upheld the present status
of the eastern part of Oklahoma as
81 dian country" and affirmed
federal jurisdiction therein as to the
Introduction of Intoxicating liquors.
About year ago, Bob Wright was
indicted in the United States district
court of the eastern district of Okla
homa for introducing liquor into the
Indian country.
The district court sustained de-
murrer holding that the district was
not Indian country and that the fed
eral laws prohibiting the introduction
into the Indian country did not apply.
The government appealed the case,
resulting in the decision of the lower
court being reversed as stated above.
