at the Methodist church by Mr.. Wor-

problem OF the liquor traffic was set
forth in a clear convincing manner.
Mr.. Worhendyke is forceful speaker
and knows what he is talking about.
He places the responsibility for the ex-
istence Of the saloon upon the voters Of
the country and shows that it is inn
possible for them to shift the burden
elsewhere. He showed also that local
applications will not heal the disease
but that it will require constitutional
remedy.

DEMAND REMOVAL
CHIEF MOTY TIGER
FIFTY CREEK INDIANS PASS RE
SOLUTION TO THAT END AND
ASK FOR LAND PATENTS.

Okmulgee, Okla, March 29.-Charg-
ing incompetenCy, neglect of duty,
and that he needed not the wishes Of
the members of the tribe, fifty mem
bers of the Creek tribe of Indians in
session here, passed resolution de-
manding the removal of their chief,
Moty Tiger, and forwarded a copy Of
the same to President Wilson. The
Indians were in session three days.
The gathering consisted chiefly Of
full bloods All parts of the Creek
country were represented. The reso-
lutions were signed by II. VI. Harjo,
J. II. Land, Sarty Deason, John Harjo
and Charles Crashman Snrty Cooee,
a full-bloOd, presided at the meetings.
Faith in President Wilson and his
administration is declared and the
hope expressed that the big white
chief at Washington will heed their
prayer. The charges preferred against
the chief, recite that he is inefficient
incapable and remiss in duty" The
Indians declare that he has been
chief for five years and although vest
ed with power to convene a session OF
the tribal council, has refused and
neglected to do so Tiger has given
as his excuses, the resolutions say,
that there is no funds to pay for a
special session, but the Indians did
not demand Ihy but a chance to get
together and discuss their affairs.
The second charge is that Tiger has
refused to advise with the people OF
his tribe as to their wants and needsi
that by reason of his inability to speak
good English, Tiger has entailed ex-
pense by carrying with him an inter

THE DEPARTMENT
IS ENDORSED
VOTERS URGED TO ELECT lEGIS'
LATURE WHO WILL PROVIDE
FOR SYSTEMATIC ROAD WORK.

At a recent luncheon at Tulsa, Cy
Avery chairman of the board of coun-
" commissioners of Tulsa county,
and who has a state reputation as
an advocate of good roads, fndorsed
the plans of the state highway de-
partment and urged the people to
elect members of the Legislature who
would give this department such legis-
lation as it needs and to provide for
a fixed salary for the commissioner.
The Tulsa Evening Suns report Of
the meeting follows:
There is a trans-county highway
being constructed in Okfuskee coun-
ty where Tulsa city and Tulsa coun-
ty material is being used almost eX-
clusively. The state highway en-
gineer, a Tulsa man, and material,
both concrete and iron, manufactured
in local factories is being used in
constructing the road, according to
state highway commissioner Sidney
Suggs in his speech at the MONDAY
luncheon, yesterday, which was at
tended by only a fairly good crowd of
Tulsa business men.
In an exclusive better roads speech,
Col. Suggs clearly showed the nee
essity of good roads in Oklahoma.
His argument that at times took the
form of a pleading impressed itself
on the business men present. He de-
clared that perfect national high
ways. connecting 6,5O0,00O farms in
this country, would solve the labor
question and advance the opportuni-
ties of life to those of the rural dis
tricts.
"He touched briefly on the $1.OO ou-
tomobile tax law, in effect in Okla
homa, urging that those liable to such
taxation, meet their obligations
promptly, explaining that the respon-
sibility for enforcement of the law
has been imposed upon him.
81 have been in Kansas, Arkansas,
Texas and Missouri recently and have
always been wide awake to the good
roads convention to be held in Tulsa

declared in referring to the two good
roads meetings here. Tulsa has al
ways made good her patriotism and
ability along such lines He predicted
that one of the largest crowds ever
gathered in Tulsa would be in attend
ance at the meetings.

as much ease and elegance as If de-
livered in our plain, every day Eng
lish. There were also individual read
ing by some of the young lady pupils
that were in their simplicity of de-
liverance to me very surprising, as
my knowledge of Latin had been con
fined to a few patriotic expressions
usually seen in everyday print, and
there were also songs sung in Latin,
and reading by the class, all OF which,
as stated, were a source of much sur
prise and great qualification to me,
to learn that the schools of this town
were in position to inCulcate such
high methods OF learning to our pu-

said:
THE fact of an agreement between
