THE FEDERAL LOAN ACT

Legislator Light sends US the fol-
lowing synopsis of the Federal Loan
Act, compiled by him from informa-
ton sent him by Senator Fletcher.
The law in few words is as fol-
lows:
Ten or more citizens in any COM
munity can form loan bank. Must
comply with regulations governing
loan banks.
No bank can be formed with less
than $4,000 loans wanted nor less
than ten men and no one can borrow
more than $4,000 nor less than 500.
No money can be loaned except on
farm real estate first mortgage, and
must be applied to purchase of lands,
or improvement of lands for live
stock, ETC., and for no other purpose.
Money to the value of so per cent OF
the appraised value of the property
can be borrowed and no more. Inter
est at the rate of 6 per cent on from
five to forty years loans.
Of course the system cannot be put
into operation until the farm loaT
board is established and promulgates
the rules and regulations and estab,

EFFICIENCY AND
NOT IRRITATION

Way back yonder I'm the dark ages,
the measure of merit Of a policeman
was seeing how many men he could
arrest and drag off to the lookup 1t
is pretty well established, however,
that there was more crime in proper
tor then than now.
A more enlightened day has come,
and in the best-governed cities it is
the best policeman who has the least
trouble on his beat and has to make
the fewest arrests. The cop does not
swagger along and look for trouble;
he is the guide Of the stranger and
the protector and friend of the citizen.
He does not watch with hawk-eyes for
chance to make an arrest, but if he
sees some one, perhaps thru ignor-
ance, slightly infringe rule, he cor
reefs the offender and warns him
against repetition Of the offense. 1t
is just as much his business to keep
people out of trouble as it is to punish
them for causing trouble. Such has
been the rule for many years in Lon
don, the best governed city, perhaps,
In the world, and of late the example
has been largely copied in many
American cities. This practice has
obtained in Ocala for some time, and
the Star has often had occasion to adj
mire the patience Of the members Of
the city police, who have made it a
rule to correct rather than to arrest
all who seemed to offend through
ignorance. 1t has seemed to the Star
that this was just exactly what they
ought to do.
In the past few weeks, however, a
new star has shone in police circles
n person who was on the lookout for
the unwary citizen, to yank him be-
fore the recorder and replenish the
city treasury because the wheels OF
his auto did not track, or for some
thing else Of the same Importance
And now we are told that there is q
possibility that this star will become
a permanent light in the armament
rebuking with it's lustre those dim
visioned cops who are so busy looking
for real criminals that they sometimes
fail to notice that peaceable citizens
car is on the wrong side of the street
for a minute.
A few years ago we had a police.
man who believed every man guilty
until he proved himself innocent, anG
acted accordingly. The said cop woune
up in jail, and missed being lynchec
by not very wide margin. And it's
the Stars opinion that if the author
tiles ever put try to keep on the
force any man who keeps the citizens
irritated by policy of pin pricks
he will finish by being ridden out OF
town on a rail.
The Star has been here over twenty
one years, and has seen many police
men come and many go. In it's opin-
ion, Marshal Carter, Policemen
Grubbs and Wells, are about as good
men as we have ever had, and much
better than many we have had. ii
we need an extra man, there are
others Of their type. If the authori-
ties put on man who has already got
the town down on him, they will make
a grave mistake and one that viii be
prolific of trouble in future.

Republican "Patriotism."

Great grief Is expressed in Repub-
ncan circles over the treachery of the
Democratic house in including in the
new revenue bill protective duties on
dyestuffs. This is tariff principle to
which the Republicans are sworn. and
they would rather see the rising dye
industry sacrificed and. be able to
make political capital of the Demo
Gratis failure to save it from destruc-
ton after the war. Any pretext is
good enough for partisan fault-inding.
The Democrats are to be damned If
they do something and damned IL they
do not.

Aggressive Campaign Promised.


Contrary to reports, the Democratic
organization will make an aggressive
campaign in number of Republican
States. Plans are under way for a
vigorous campaign in Maine, under the
direction of Homer S. Cummings, ma
tional committeeman for Connecticut,
who is vice chairman of the commit
tee. Vance Mccormick, the new chair
man of the national committee, de-
clRred that any reports that the Demo-
Gratis were going to avoid Republican
States were unauthorized. He said
emphatically that the Democrats were
going to carry the fight into all states
that might be classed as in any way
doubtful, and the Democratic chieftain
looks upon Maine-once regarded as a
rock-ribbed Republican state-as ex-
ceeding doubtful territory for the
Republicans.

The two buildings were completed
and were ready for the accommodation
of students soon after the beginning
of the year of 1850. and in May
of that year the schools were opened
The date, the 7th day of the month,
was long observed as holiday by
the students of the two high schools
The boys and girls with their instruc'
tors were wont to assemble at pic
turesque and shaded spot on the
banks of the Illinois, where appro-
pirate exercises were held, including
addresses by the leading men of the
nation. And there were times when
distinguished visitors from the states
were present and spoke to the large
assemblages, there were always citi-
zens on hand from all over the ma
ton.
The two high schools were in oper-
alton during the greater part of the
fifties, but were closed as the civil
war drew near but after that devas-
tating conflict was ended and the fl
nances of the nation grew to better
conditions they were reopened. The
first classes were graduated in 1854,
and after the reopening there We're
several classes that finished the
course of study during the years pre-
ceding the early eighties. From the
beginning of the eighties for a num-
Der Of years, each year witnessed the
graduating of classes of young women
and men. the number usually being
large and the graduates being men,

districts into which the nation was di-
vided.

now the main building of the north

after the fire a number Of men went
out from Tahlequah and after using
several charges of dynamite broke

were considerably damaged by mols-

been placed in the box with the rec
ords was missing. BY some this piece
of money is supposed to have evapor-
ated, as those who had witnessed the
ceremonies when the corner stone was
laid were willing to state on oath that
they saw the money placed in the

forthcoming.
New England Staff.
At the opening of the schools. the
first instructors were chosen from the
New England states. At the male
seminary the Revs. Thomas b. Van
Horn and o. w. Woodford of Connec-
ticut, were in charge, while at the fe-
male school a Miss Avery and Miss
Raymond of Norwalk. had charge.
At later date number of Cherokee
teachers were employed, some or

and others who had been educated in
state institutions.

TAHLEQUAH, Okla. April 22. -
The Cherokees recall with pardonable
pride the fact that theirs was the
first native American nation to es-
tablsh high schools. The Cherokee
national male and female seminaries
were established by an act OF the
national council in the year of 1876,
the funds necessary to pay for the
erection Of the schools being appro-
priated from the Cherokee treasury.
Shortly after the act of the council
became law, preparations were
made for the erection of the buildings
1t was decided to locate the male
seminary about one and one-half
miles southwest Of Tahlequah, while
the female seminary was located at
Park Hill, four miles south from the
capital. Competent workmen were Sc
cured and in the first month Of the
summer following the foundations
were laid and the ceremonies Of lay
