The Choctuw people are justly In
dlgnant over the failure uf congress tu
make the payment Of S5,0OOOOO which
was filibustrred to death In the clos
ing hours u the last session. The pay
ment was defeated by powerful com
binatton Of Democratic senators and
representative from southern states,
who demanded that the oklahoma
Choctaws share their property wealth
with hundreds OF Mississippi Choctaw
claimants.
A most potent reason FOR the Du
rant convention, II news from the
ChOctaw country may be- relied upon.
Is the determination Of number N
ChOctaw Democrats to MT the scalp
of Chief Victor NJ Locke, who hup
pens to be- Republican The offir"

ular time, who are demanding that
their chief shall belong to the party
In power, just as non-lndnn poIItI
clans are saying that to the victor be-
longs the spolls, even In Santo DO
mlngO.
THE effort to mseat Chlcf Lock,
will be spectacular Locke not onl!
