Should Not
Pr0craStinate

A delegation of Blackwell citizens,
in the northwest corner of st. Fran
,ois county, were before the County
Court Monday to again urge imme-
liate action in regard to the building
If a bridge across Big River at North
Blackwell ford, where four lives were
recently snuffed out, owing to sudden
rise in the waters of that treacherous
stream. The citizens of that part OF
the county, particularly, feel that ac-
zion in regard to bridging that stream,
at the point suggested, has already
been too long delayed. And, indeed,
there is no gainsaying that fact, IN
view of the recent frightful tragedy.
There is but one thing in the way OF
immediate action on the part of the
st. Francois County Court to delay
the immediate letting of the contract
for such bridge, and that is a de-
ficiency of funds on hand for such
purposes. But as soon as satisfactory
arrangements can be made in regard
to financing the proposition, the
County Judges will be more that will
ing to go ahead with this necessary
work. The Times understands that
jefferson county, which has agreed tc
bear half the expense of such a bridge
will soon have money available fol
that purpose as a result of bond sale
which has just been closed. So il
seems altogether probable that the
azardous ford on Big River will soor
be spanned by substantial bridge
which it is estimated will cost abou
| $4,000.

Jorge Huerta. the 17-year-old son
of the late General Victoriano Huerta
of Mexico, is said to have slipped
away to Havana. His trip to the Gu
ban capitol is said to be veiled by
mysterious circumstances. 1t is
known, however, that there are many
Huerta followers in Cuba. Young
Huerta is credited with a cordial dis.
like for Americans and everything
American. Several Americans are on
record who claim to have seen him
drag the American flag through the
streets of Mexico City to the Foreign
Club, where, accompanied by his sol
diers, he entered the building and
broke statue of George Washington,
exclaiming: Death to Gringoes."

OKLAHOMA FOR OWEN.

If United States Senator Robert l..
owen lived in a strategcal state, he
would have the Endorsement of the de-
mocracy of the nation for president to
succeed Woodrow Wilson at the end
of his second term, but by his having
cast his lot in Oklahoma 1t may be
that he will be denied that honor. Still
we acnnot tell BY the time another
four years have passed the political
leaders of the country may go after
the man more than after political ad-
vantage and after all that is more rea-
sonable and more sensible and there
is more justice combined with it and
as politics progress we may get out of
the idea that a president must come
from, some state that has location in
its favor. We believe Senator Owen
is big enough to change that policy
which has always been practiced by
the political leaders of the party.
In as much as the people generally
and almost without regard to political
afiiliation are for Woodrow Wilson
for a second term, Oklahoma offers
the nation Robert l.. Owen as vice
president, S,,.o,.. - .--
In every nook and corner of the
safe, Owen is popular. We do not
think of him as belonging to Musko-
gee, but we think of him as belonging
to Oklahoma and to the nation.
We hope to see the democrats of
Carter county in convention next Sat
urday give him the unqualified in
dorsement of the democracy of the
county for vicepresident. The same
action will be taken in many other
counties of the state and even in the
precincts he has been indorsed. At a
precinct meeting of democrats in Ok
lahoma City the following resolution
was adopted:
Resolved, that we, the representa-
tiyes of the democracy of precinct /,

SENATE AGREES
To THE INDIAN
PAYMENTS
PROVIDES FOR TRIBAL PAY
MENTS TO cHlCKASAW AND
CHoCTAW INDIANS IN SUM OF
$7,5oo,oo0.

Washington, March 27.-The senate
Monday agreed to the item in the In
dian appropriation bill providing fol
tribal payments to the Choctaw and
Chickasaw Indians of Oklahoma. The
bill passed the house February 5, and
the senate action Monday means that
the payments are assured They will
include $500 for the Choctaws and 5000
for the Chickasaws.
Other progress was made on the ap-
preparation bill and it probably will be
passed Tuesday, clearing the way to
immediate consideration of the SEN
ate substitute for the army increase
measure. In view of the general sup
port that is now being given to ma
tional defense projects, the prospects
are good for passage of the bill, prob
ably amended considerably, within a
few weeks.
Senator Williams of Mississippi in
an extended argument, gave notice he
would fight all per capita payments to
the Choctaws and Chickasaws in the
future until some provision was made
for the Choctaws in Mississippi.
Senator Vardaman of Mississippi
also spoke on the same subject, but
Senators LaFollette and Gronna, who
conducted the filibuster against the
Indian appropriation bill at the last
session on account of the payment,
made no protest.
Senators Owen and Gore replied to
Senator Williams, after which the
was adopted by an over
whelming vote. This payment means
the distribution of $7,5OO,OOG to the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations, prob
ably during the coming spring and
summer. The Oklahoma delegation
has made hard fight to win.

THE INDIAN PAYMENT

, Congressman Carter and Murray in
the house, and Senators Owen and
Gore in the senate, are to be congratu
lated upon the termination of the per
capita payment bill. That bill lost in
part last year, and it was no easy
matter this year to get it through
both houses. Men like John Sharp
Williams of Mississippi were opposed
to the act until such time as congress
had again passed upon the status of
the Indians still in Mississippi.
After the hard fight of year ago,
when Charley Carter forced the bill
through the house, and then sat all
night in the senate chamber to render
what service he could in the upper
house, he stated that the opposition
was broken to pieces so thoroughly
that the next bill would be enacted
into law and it is evident now that
he thoroughly understood the ques-
ton.
But when congress convened this
year there were many new members
who had never heard of the question,
and they had to be enlightened on the
question and Mr. Carter has been
working on the measure since last
December Every citizen of the state
is interested in the bill, and they will |
with one accord endorse the tireless |
efforts of Mr.. Carter and would be glad |
to vote him a holiday now and let him
come home to attend the state con-
vention and send him as a delegate to |
st. Louis. He deserves all that we can
do for him.
The bill will give to the Chickasaws
and Choctaws something more than
seven million dollars. The average
Chickasaw family of five members will
receive in cash $1,000 and the average
Choctaw family of five members will
receive $500.
In telegram TO The Ardmoreite,
hI. I dIltI says. lt IDlll was duOpl-
ed by the senate without any import
ant amendments. which is final. and
means realization of payment in near
future"
John Sharp Williams announces that
he will fight every payment from now
on, but the prospects are that Mr.. Will
liams has been so completely whipped
that he cannot stop any more of the
annual payments, provided the Okla
loma delegation remains unbroken and
continues to capture the new men as
hey are elected to congress from other
states. Oklahoma must realize that II
has bitter fight before it every year
until the Indians receive final settle
ment.
