PAWHUSKA, Okla, Jan. 22-(Spe-
cialD-The Osages today turned down
the scheme to lease their lands to the
Uncle Sam Oil company and by a
practically unanimous vote sustained
the position Of Secretary Fisher Of
the Interior Department and Presi-
dent Taft.
There had been some talk of oppo-
sition to Fred Lookout for principal
chief but when the Uncle Sam advo-
Gates found that a vast majority Of
the ful-bloods were for the ticket
thea laid down and did not even make
a prctense Of a fight.
Came Quietly; Left Quietly.
The election was as quiet and
peaceful as a Quaker prayer meeting
The full-bloods, wrapped in tneiI
blankets, with their turbans on, SOL
emnly handed the judges their bal
lots. and as solemnly walked out
again, some of them not even maxi
ing a sound. And 1t was remarkable
that nine out of ten of the votes cast
were put in the box by the full-bloods,
some of them coming long distances
for the purpose Of demonstrating
their confidence in the policy Of the
government
The result marks the end Of the
Uncle Sam Oil company to handle
members of the council. Every one
of the members elected today IL n
progressive and is committed to th
policy of leasing the lands Of the
tribe in small tracts to individual pro-
ducers or corporations after adver-
tisement has been made. The whole
thing hereafter will be a competitive
bidding proposition. This makes more
work for the agency but 1t makes
more money for the Indlan and that
is what the agency desires above
everything else.
An Annihilation.
And today's vote marks the down
fall. the annlhlation almost of one

with the Usage tribe It has been
necessary to "see four or five men
whose names were well known and
whose influence with the tribe par

bers of the council, indeed It was not
necessary that they should be, but
they had the confidence Of the tribe
and could market that asset In any
market they desired. Rest assured
that asset was marketed as the affi-
davits in possession of the govern
ment amply demonstrate. This CO.
terie bargained away the tribal rights
as though they were personal chat

the principal chief because It was

ell Of the Five that those who wanted
favors went with their propositions.

VIII Open New Field.

The new council will be sworn in
just as soon as the certifiCation of
the election can reach the secretary
of the interior and receive his ap-
proval. After that the bids which
have been accepted by the depart
ment will be submitted to the coun-
ell and there is scarcely a doubt but
that they will receive approval, These
bids were submitted on November
11th Of last year but because of the
sinister influences which controlled
the actions of the old council, have
been held up. The election today
means a new ear in the Osagei It
means new era in the Usage; It
has ever before received for his oil
and gas, it means hundreds of bid
ders instead of letting the entire acre
age to one person. But the biggest
thing of all is the passing of the ma
chine, the substitution Of the tribal
council in matters affecting the
Osages for a bunch who had to be
seen" before you could approach the

1t Is n singular thing that the

they were destroying the men who
had ruled over them for a genera
