The per capita payment of $500 to
the Choctaws and 5000 to the Chick
asaws is. now a certainty, and re-
quires only the time necessary to
complete the clerical work incident
to the disbursement until the Indi-
ans will receive their checks. To
this part of Oklahoma the payment
is boon, for it comes to the Indian
at time when he needs it worst;
between seasons as 1t were. To
Congressman Charlie Carter is due
in large part the credit for securing
the payment, and the large majority
that the bill received in the House is
proof of his work in mat connection.

President. AS Charlie puts it, he de-
sires to recommend the best available
man for the position.

ATTRACTS BUSINESS MEN.

Mr.. Hughes has not tried to scare
anybody, but has merely portrayed the
errors OF the present administration
and set forth certain principles on
which the affairs of the country should
be managed in the future.
There is a political logic in. his por-
travail, the elimination of which in the
mind Of the voter is expressed by the
frequent remark:
Gle is the kind of man we want to
steer us through
This has been said by many bust

Hughes are poise a strong, sane mind,
sincerity and willingness to sacrifice
life, physical or political, to the good
of the country. Nor is there any
question as to the quality of nerve to
meet the emergencies of the four years
beginning March 4, 1917.

FARMERS SIZE UP HUGHES
AS "PRETTY GOOD FELLOW

Fargo, N. D.-Charles e. Haghes
campaigned for the first time among
the sturdy farmers of the eastern part
of North Dakota and left behind him
the reputation of being pretty good
fellow"
He was forced to undergo critical
scrutiny before the verdict was given.
Mr.. Hughes preached the doctrines
of government efficiency, Americanism,
tariff as protection to the farmers and
preparedness, and in each instance won
applause, despite the fact that the
farmers are not the strongest advo-
Gates Of the last named issue.
They cheered for preparedness the
loudest when Mr. Hughes told them
that it meant not militarism, but abil-
ity to uphold national honor.
AS they cheered for Mr.. Hughes one
broad shouldered old farmer said, cts
because there's something about him
that makes you believe he's telling the
truth.

Washinqton's Wet Army.

We are now accustomed to seeing
the demon rum kicked out of whole
empires. Armies, by imperial edict,
become dry as desert camels.
Washington's army, on the contrary,
might drink all the liquor it could pay
for, and even officers became intoxicat-
ed on duty and received but slight pun
ishment. To David Lewis, one of our
most painstaking students OF history,
I am indebted for the record of an in
teresting court martial due to bottle
of rum.
Lieutenant Bunburg was in COM
mand of the Statehouse guard-1t is
officially referred to as the Statehouse
-one day in May, 1777. Not only was
he intoxicated himself, but he carried
liquor to his own troops and neglected
his duty for hours.
His punishment was suspension OF
command and pay for one fortnight!

court and James Sharswood judge ad-
