Wealth of Many Indians
Piles Up Muskogee Riches

MUSKOGEE, Okla, Sept 22.-(Sp..
cial When Muskogee, a city of ap-
proximately 1000 people, subscribed
nearly 100000 worth 6f Liberty Loan
bonds on the first call, the entire
United StateS was electrified. The As
sociated Press at first refused to be
lieve the figures, declaring that such a
subscription was almost impossible.
But Muskogee did subscribe ii. The
citys quota was about half a million
dollars and the merchants, the business
man and the laborer over scribed it al
once. And then the city's wards, the
Indians, bought 100000 more of the
bonds.
The wealth of the Indian Is never
recokoned when one speaks of the
wealth Of Muskogee. And yet proper
ly the Indians money is Muskogces
money, for it is here that the money is
handled and through Muskogee inst
tutions that much OF it is spent
it is Indian money that makes the
county court at Muskogee the second
largest probate court in the world. *

ably blushed at the thought The old

champion for bout on April II. and
from latest reports the promoters are
going through with the match.
Any sensible follower Of fisticuffs
will agree that the match is a deplor-
able one. It ought to be cancelled. It
should never have been made. The fact
that Welsh accepted it is a discredit to
him; and the promoter who has to 90
to the old soldiers home for a boxer to
pit against a champion is the poorest
matchmaker imaginable.
Just because Nelson stopped an Cd
ponent recently is no reason why he
should be matched with the king OF the
lightweights to pose as a chopping
block And that is just what Welsh
Will make Of Nelson any time they get
into the ring together. The match is
nothing more nor less than a discredit
to boxing.
