OWEN IS WORRIED
over H|SFATFEE
Court Of Claims Has Allowed
Him $175,000, But Col
lecting it is Another
Matter Now.

WASHINGTON -- How much OF the
$4,000 recently fixed by the United
States court of claims as Senator Rob
ert L. owens fee as counsel for the
Mississippi Choctaw Indians can be
collected is a question which cannot
be answered by any one now
Senator owen sued the Mississippi
Choctaws in the court Of claims and
his claim was rejected He appealed
to the United States supreme court
and year ago or more that court re-
versed the court of claims and seat
the case back for new finding. the
court of claims several weeks ago
rendered its decision that Senator
Owens fee should be sl75,OOO so far as
restricted Indians are concerned
Commissioner Must Approve.
The commissioner of Indian Affairs
will have 10 approve the finding before
the fee can be paid from Indian funds.
In the meantime the suit being many
years old. many Indians have had
much of their property has been sold.
How TO collect the fee from the un-
restricted Indians. many of whom have
no property. and what part is TO be
paid by the restricted Indians from tri.
bal funds, will have to be worked out
Believes Burke VIII Pay.
There is no doubt that Senator owen
viii be able to realize considerable
sum, but doubt is expressed here as
to his being able to collect the entire
of his fee.
Commissioner of Indian Affairs
Burke is out of the city and Assist
ant Commissioner Merritt declines TO
discuss the matter
still there seems little doubt that
such part of the fee as the restricted
Indians may be found liable for will
be paid by Commissioner Burke out
OF their funds.

Fawcett Talks to u. S. Senate
About 1t

A witness to appear in Washington
this week before the senate finance
committee, in the hearings on wool
tariff rates, is C. j. Fawcett, direc-
tor of wool marketing of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau federation and
wool growers of West Liberty, Iowa
He spoke in favor of the 35-cent
rate on the clean content of wool
and the abolition of the proposed adj
valorem limitation.
Mr.. Fawcett said that wool produc-
ton in the United States had de-
creased 100000 pounds per year for
the last ten years while in that pc
riod the population had increased in
excess of 100000. He added that
in the near future the United States
will be dependent upon foreign pro-
ducers for 400,000,000 pounds annu-
ally.
The witness told the committee it

number Of sheep handled in Iowa
and the corn belt" country to the
extent of $50 per cent without dis
placing any other industries. He
said there was enough roughage in
the corn fields and elsewhere on the
farms to take care of them.
He pointed to the increase in the
number of sheep in the United States
as the result of the "more sheep"
campaign. This increase was
achieved in two years and he added
that if this campaign were backed
by proper protection in way of du-
ties further increase could be made.
He declared that in the war period
the people paid more than protec-
ton would have cost them for
number of years in the form of wool
prices that, owing to insufficient pro-
duction, jumped to three times nor
NAL figures.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa-That "class

authorities, is the opinion of the Linn

submitted a lengthy report to the
court.

Police and federal officers are ac-

they have eyes only for the producer
and consumer of hootch." Such dis
elimination, in the belief of the grand
jury, encourages anarchy.

DRY GOODS FIRM
TO new LOCATION
Common Bros. 4 Knight Have Rented
Building Occupied by John c.
HexOm 4 Son
CHANGE NOT TO BE
MADE FOR SOME TINE
HexOm & Son Have Not Decided Yet
On Their New Location, Have
Several Places in View.

A deal was consumated last week
Thursday whereby Connor Bros. &
Knight rented the building occupied
by John c. Hexom and & Son, the
latter firm having decided to make
change of locations, their lease ex-
piring next October. The rental of
the store was advanced, and Hexom
& Son didn't feel inclined to accept
the new advance and decided to give
the building up. They had the first
opportunity to remain in the building
which they have occupied for the
past 10 years.
HeXom G. Son have not decided yet
on a new location, but have several
in view.
Both firms have leases on their
respective buildings for some time
yet, but just as soon as HeXom &
Son procure their new location the
change will be made and Common
Bros. & Knight will occupy the
building. The store building now
occupied by Hexom and Son is own
ed by Mrs. Winnie Adams, and the
building occupied by Conner Bros. &
Knight is owned by Otto Solberg.
Mr.. Hexom started in business here
35 years ago, and has been in his
present location 10 years. That the
firm will secure new quarters and
continue their excellent business rel
atoms in the community will be good
news to their many friends.
The, report was current on the
streets that Connor Bros. e. Knight
had also rented the Arthur Lennon
building, occupied by H. j. Hutchin-
son and intended cutting an arch
from the Hexom building, but this
rumor had no truth in it.

protests against the movement to
have the school children of the city
raise funds for the relief of poor,
underfed children of France, on the
grounds that many New York school
children are also underfed.
There is lot in this. In every
city in this land, we care not which
one you name, there are too many
poor, ill-clothed and underfed child
rem. In cities like Nov York, Chi
cago, Philadelphia, Boston--in fact,
in all of the 10 to Is larger cities
there are many thousands of such
children, pathetic examples of mems

Loyalty

A man took over a small and neat
little business from his father and
worked and worked through eighteen
years until he had built it into a
$15O,OO0 a year corporation.
He assumed the responsibilities of
marriage and the raising of three
children.
You'll say this man has lived a
useful and successful ,life-that he
might, perhaps, be justified in re-
firing from business and enjoying
himself.
Recently the man attended a Ma
sonic meeting. He talked with a
group of his business associates and
lodge fellows. One of his friends
said, "It's certainly been great
year, boys. Ten thousand dollars or
that last deal. How are things COM
ing with you?" he went on, turning
to our friends.
