son that a light was made by senat-
or John Sharp williams, Of Mississ-
ippi. to hold it np until he could try
to get the Mississippi Choctaws on
the roll. II win be the purpose Of
Mr.. Durant and Mr.. McCurtain to
show Congress that the Mississippi
Choctaws who did not elect TO re-
move TO Oklahoma. do not have any
legal rights In the matter and should
be ignored. They will also urge the
great necessity for liberal payment
out of the tribal funds az this time
because Of the straItened financial
circumstances at this time.
A $500 per capita payment to the
choctaws would mean the putting
Of seven million. eight hundred thou
sand dollars into circulation, in the
Choctaw nation aud a 5000 per cap
lta payment to the Chickasaws would
mean putting into circulation one

certainly go long way toward I'm

Mr.. Durant' principal work at
this time will be to convince the com
mittee on Indian Affairs of the ftIa-
tice of HIS cause. but incidentally. OF
course, he will put in all his spare
time explaining the matter to every
member OF Congress that he can
reach and in getting them straighton-
ed out on Indian Affairs generally.
AS Mr.. Durant knows the affairs Of
the Indian Territory from A to
and has few equals as an advocate. II
is safe conclusion that his work
in Washington will bear fruit.

Public Health Department


About year ago smallpox made
its annual appearance into the state
and the Commissioner OF Health for
Oklahoma received several letters
from over the United States which
served for the purpose OF reminding
us how much easier the great pro-
gress that we have made during the
past fifty years renders the spread
of contagious diseases. The first lot
ter came from the Commissioner OF
Health Of the State of Pennsylvania
advising the State Commissioner for
Oklahoma that Mr.. So-and-so. had
arrived at his home at --- Penn,
and that few days after his arrival
he developed smallpox and that he
was exposed during visit to the
oil fields at Tulsa. Oklahoma.
A few days after this letter was
received Dy the State Commissioner
Of Health from the Secretary of State
Of California, advising him that re-
Gently Mr.. So-and-so, resident Of
Oklahoma, had come to Pasadena.
California, for the purpose of spend
ing the winter. and that two days
after his arrival he came down with
smallpox. He also stated that this
man had bee nexposed to smallpox
just before he left his home in Wood
ward. Oklahoma.
Now. fifty years ago it would have
been impossible for two men to con-
tract contagious disease in the cen
ter of the United States and develop
the disease few days later, one on
the Pacific coast andthe other on
the Atlantic coast; but, by reason
of the railroads and steamboat lines,
travel and commerce have brought
man together so that humanity has
largely become one and a man ex-
posed to smallpox in Oklahoma is
frequently two or three thousand
miles away when the disease devel-
ops. We are no longer living isoiar-
ed Ives, but are gathered together
in communities and our interests
are mutual. The interests OF one
