Good Example Co-Opcrative Buyin,
(ClomSOn Bulletin)

That cooperative buying is profit
able is shown by recent experiences
of County Agent George II. Briggs,
OF Oconee, who held a meeting one
afternoon Of Westminster farmers
interested in buying acid phosphate.
There was good attendance at the
meeting because the farmers we're
particularly interested in getting
better prices than had been offered
by dealers, and 61 tons Of acid phos-
phate were listed by these farmers.
The local price prevailing before the
meeting was $500 per ton for cash
or $4,000 to $25.00 on time. A price
of SIG per ton had been secured from
the outside, and when this was made
known, a local dealer offered a price
of $15.75 and got the order. This
little meeting was worth approxi-
mately $4,000 to these farmers.

Quilted OF the charge of attack on O
young white woman Of Baltimore

negro, beating him with their fists;
water glasses and ink wells were
thrown across the room, and the up-
roar did not subside until one of the
judges rescued the negro and carried
him into an ante-room.
The negro had previously been
convicted and sentenced to hang, but
new trial was ordered and he was
acquitted. Z.
Immediately after the court had
finished announcing the reasons for
acquittal, man leaped at the negro,
and he was followed by others, who
rushed the negro as he started his
flight from the room. A spectator
jumped on the trial table and struck
him in the face several times. A sis

tecting the negro, who finally was
rescued by the police. The negro was
again placed in Jail, where he was

FOURTEEN MILLIONS OF ACRES
or Priceless Lands Are sin Dispute in
Texas and Oklahoma.

Washington, April 13.-Claim to
14,0OO,000 acres Of land in Texas
and Oklahoma, including the cities
Of Tulsa and Oklahoma City and
practically the entire Burk-Burnett
oil field, has been fled in the Su-
preme Court in behalf Of the Chero-
kee Indian nation, supported by
government patent issued by Presi-
dent Van Buren and certified as au-
thentic by the Interior Department.
The claim was in the form of
petition for permission to intervene
in the Red River oil lands case, an
original suit between Texas and Ok
lahoma involving jurisdiction over
the valuable oil lands situated along
the tss,ni,non boundary.
The motion was filed by John N.
Taylor q nephew of Gen. Zachary
Taylor, as attorney for the Cherokee
nation. He said that the patent was
discovered accidentally among the
papers of a deceased chief Of the
tribe.
Bearing date of Dec. 81, 1889, the
patent gave to the Cherokee nation
forever" tract of about 500 miles
In length through the Panhandle
section, comprising in all 14,374,135
acres.
Only the possibility that the stat
ute Of limitation will nullify the
claim prevents the Cherokee nation
from having "water-tight" case;
counsel said. 1t will be contended, it
was added, that this statute does not
apply, since the Supreme Court has
held that 1t cannot be pressed
against the government itself, and
that the Indian tribe, as wards of
the government, are possessed Of the
same rights.
without Authority.
The filing Of a claim in the United
States Supreme Court at Washing
ton by Attorney General John NJ.
Taylor on behalf Of the Cherokee
Indian nation was done without the
authority Of the tribe, according to
Levi Gritts, Of Muskogee. Gritts's
appointment as chief of the tribe is
now pending at Washington.
The Points in Dispute.
Doubt that the Cherokee Indian
nation can lay claim to this large
area of land in Oklahoma and Texas,
as was done in petition filed in the |
United States Supreme Court re-
Gently, because it has no official or
legal status as nation, was ex-
pressed by s. p. Freezing, Attorney
General Of Oklahoma. He said, how
ever that it might be possible for in
diyidual descendants of members of
the nation to support the petition.
The land in question, which in
wolves the city Of Tulsa and Okla
homa City and practically the entire
Burk-Burnett oil field, has been pat
ented by the government since the
Van Buren, patent, according to Mr..
Freezing. He declined, however, to
interpret the law to show whether
the Cherokee patent does or does not
outrank the later issue.
