OPENED HIS EYES
TO GUARDIANS BOND
How Innocent Bondsmen
Are Made to-
Suffer.

OKEMAH, Okla, Feb. 21.-"lf I

1t shall not be long after l get back

McKeon, OF the seventh judicial dis
trict. here today.
Judge McKeon has been sitting here
under assignment OF the Oklahoma SUI
preme court and has been trying
numerous cases against sureties on
guardian bonds. brought by Creek In-
dians who have reached their MAJOR
titles and are suing to recover moneys
and properties lost through the mach-
nations OF dishonest guardians.
Judgments totalIing many thousands
Of dollars have been rendered against
the bondsmen Of these guardians az
the term of court just closed here.
A number of these bOndsmen are
honest men and the victims Of the al
most universal custom which has pre-
vailed on the east side since long be-
fore statehood. The banking profes-
sion suffered most among those af-
fectel by the suits. In the early day
when a guardian was appointed for an
Indian minor, whether the guardian
was a white man or an indian, he had
his favorite banker with whom he de-
posted his guardian funds. There
was. OF course, much competition
among the banks and bankers in the
bid for this line Of deposits. and the
result Of it was that the banker who
succeeded in getting the deposit usu-
ally signed the guardians bond given
