Vote for the treaty and drive

"Treaty and Title" will be the
battle cry of the victors tomorrow.
The one who votes against the

A voto for the treaty it a declar

With the ratlGcation of the

A vote against the treaty Id a

Ex-Chief C. J. Harris, nftor
studying tho tronty is working
hrtrd for its ratification.
The opposition to tbo treaty has
been driven to the last ditch. Mis
representation and a corruption
fund are now tbeir only hopes.
Tho candidacy of Ott Smith (or
the council Is being very favorably
commented on, and it looks as
though ho would be relumed a
winner.
No Cherokee approves of the
looting of tho Nation by the oil
pirates. Yet a vote against the
treaty is an endorsement of that
robbery.
Fortunately, no oue ever takes
Too-oua-stoo seriously, lie is aB
rmulous of pen as he is onorvat

only aa an iuspirer of that tired

Tho oppressive uncertainty
which has retarded the develop,
tnent of the Cherokee nation will
disappear when title can be ob
tallied to allotments. The treaty

lor gang nas discovered in Mul
drow and Darrough a ve'rltable pair
of heavenly twins. It is difficult
to discover over which of the pair,
as to their social and political fu
turo, he enthuses most.
The campaign being waged by
the oil men against tbo ratification
of tho treaty is indicative of the
straits to which the opposition is
driven. Their only argument is a
corruption fund which is being
freely used among the full-bloods
An outrage on the rights of
women was consumated In the
Commissioner's court yesterday
when one was fined for using a
broomstick on a man. Such an
invasion of an inalienable right
should receive the severest con
damnation. Tho misrepresentations dissem
inated by some of the opponents
of the treaty have proven to be
veritable boomerangs. As these
various lies have been exposed
thoBe who were at first deceived
have become aggressive champions
of the treaty.
Jit Smith is making a 'vigor
ous campaign for the council in
Delaware district, and the voters
of that district will make a mistake
If ho is not elected. 'The great.
?st good to the greatest number,"
Is the platform upon which ho is
making his race.
Oil Smith, candidate for a seat
In the council in Delaware, is un.
qualifledly for the pending allot
ment bill, and is working as bard
for its ratification as for hU own
eleotion.- This-, alone, should rec
ommend him to the honest voterB
of his district.
About the only crime or mallei,
oua intention that Too qua slee
has not charged against the gov
eminent is that they intended to
condemn the Cberokeea to listen
to his everlasting prattle. But
then Bucb barbarism is too horri
ble for contemplation.
The opponents of the treaty
have failed to'conslder the intelli
gence of the Cherokee citizen in
their fight against that meaturo.
No Cherokee who understands its
provisions la going to vote agalntt
it, unless influenced by prejudice
or some purely selfish motive.
There is an unaccountable leth
argy among a large element con
corning tho treaty. There eeems
to be a feeling abroad that tho
measure is certain to be ratified,
Tor ding ! Viniia f r lid
and that no campaigning is neces
sary. This in a very dangerous
condition to slip into. During tho
few remaining days a vigorous cam
paign ot education should bo
waged.
The statement that tho oil com
panics favor tho treaty would draw
a wise smile from the coltio physi
ognomy ol "Mike" Cudahy.
Tho Indian Territory has done
much in making the Frisco aystem
the valuable property that it is to
day, and It is safe to - predict that
the grfcat schemes of extension and
development in this section
planned by President Yoakum will
be consumated, oven though the
road may be absorbed by tho Rock
Island.
No rational reasou has yet been
advanced why tho treaty should
not bo rallbod. Appeals havo been
made to prejudice; wilful misre
presentations have been dissem
inated aud a corruption fund is
being Irooly used. A mischievous
(riunity which oannot avail against
tho Intelligence and character of
the Oberokce people.
Ott Smith, of Falrland, who is a
candidate for the national council
over in Delaware district is well
qualified for the position to which
ho aspires, and no better man
could be selected. He comes from
one of Hie old, tubstantial families
of that district and will, if elected,
work for the peoplo as a whole
The true friends of the Chreo
kees are desirous of seeing a set
tlement of the tribal estate so that
each ono can reoeive his equitable
share before it dwindles away.
Tho most strenuous opponents of
the treaty are those who have con.
ticually robbed the nation and do
not want to lose so rich u craft.
The marshal'b office at South
McAlester has received notice
that the pay of jurors has be on in
creased from 82 to 88 per-diem.
TbiB will not make jury duty any
moro agreeable to the average citi
zen but will result in an even
more disgraceful soramble among
the professional jurymen to dii-
graco the court by their presence.
The liar Is only eOec'ivo among
the ignorant, which explains the
fact that some of the opponents of
the treaty areconfiuing their eflorts
to a very contracted circle. There
are those who are honest in their
opposition, but they are In a de
cided minority. From the mis

1KUAIY OR THE CURTIS LAW?
Under tho above caption V. L.
Trott has issued a printed argu
ment against the ratification of the
pending treaty which in a way is
unique. It Ij an Illogical master
piece; a fllm'j tissue of puerile
repetitions of exploded misrepre
sentations. A completo analysis
of its weird assertions would oc
cupy time which they In no way
deserve. One of the most grotes
que features is the assertion (bat
tne treaty is favorable to the oil
companies. No one knows better
than Mr. Trott that the oil leases
were granted under the provisions
of the Curtis Act and that the rat
ification of the treaty will invali
date those unholy instruments and
drive the oil pirates out of busi
neBS. The most bitter enemies oi
the treaty are the oil men and tho
only consistent campaign that is
being made against its ratification
Is being conduo'.ed by their agents
with their money. A fact known
to all and of which a man as con
versant with Cherokee aflairs as
Mr. Trott must certainly be oog.
nizant. It is this "oent-ficent"
Curtis Act which has thrown the
treasure vaults.of the nation wide
open to these professional looters
which Mr. Tiott wildly appeals to
the Cherokees to accept in lieu of
a meaiure which makes each citi
zen steward of bis own. Probably
tbo moBt flagrant misrepresenta
tion in this most marvelous col
lection is found in tho repetition
of the assertion that the treaty
grants each alternate section of
land to the railroads. Mr. Trott
could have employed his time to
better advantage when he wrote
that paragraph by coming to this
office and receiving a check for 8100
by adducing proof of his assertion.
Mr, Trott well knows that there is
a standing offer from this office to
pay tho sum of 8100 to anyone
who can bhow where the treaty
contains any such illegal provi
sion. The entire document is
woven out of just fuch palpable
misrepresentations. No one doubts
the sincerity ol Mr. Trott's oppo
sltlon to tbo treaty. Hut it is an
opposition born, cradled and nur
tured in prejudice. A prejudice
which seeking gratification would
condemn the Cherokees to a delay
in the settlement of their affairs
until their uatate has dwindled
away under the blighting touch of
the corruptionietfl who have grown
wealthy at their expense,

Nation.
LEASES- APPROVED
By Secrotory of Interior Embrac
ing Twelvo Sections of Oil
Lands Will Bo Invaltdat-
ed By Ratification of
Pending Measure.
The last desperate attempt of
the oil pirates to get tbo approval
of the Secrotary of tho Interior of
their leases of oil and mineral
lands in the Cherokeo nation has
bren partially successful. Tho ap
proval of the department has been
given to leases embracing about
twelve sections of land near Chel
sea and a smaller area in the Bar
tlesvillo gas fields.
Whilo tho action ot tho depart
ment is characterized as illegal and
in direct contravention to tho Cur
tis Act. whioh imposes cortain reg
ulations and royalties govorning
lenses Hint have nover bivn com
piled with, thus invalidating the
lease, the courts have never
brought relief to the Cherokees.
The Curtis Act is n most elastic
measure, and can ho stretched to
cover any arbitrary action.
For four years the Cherokees
havo fought the oil oompanlus in
the courts and beforo tho depart
ment and have suffered a series of
discouraging defeats.
It is the conseneuB of opinion
among those who ;vo watched
and studied these rt Its that fur
ther litigation will only bring ad
ditional expense.
Tho pending treaty in giving
title loallolmente invalidates these
leaees. The oil pirates are power
less against its provisions and
their hold on that valuable asset
of the nation will be finally
broken. -
As a consequence ono of the
great questions which will be pre
sented to the Cherokee citizen on
August 7llt is whether to voto a
against the looting of tbeir estate
cr to voto a right to these robbers
to continue their looting.

silence on his assertion that tho

tion of land to the railroads, nor
has he ofifr.red any proof of that
assertion although the Chieftain
has offered him 8100 for tho same.
Mr. Trott has also aba odoned his
amusing assertion that the treaty
was favorable to tho oil pirates. It
is not to bo wondered at that he
was unnamed to see his n tine used
in connection witliBUoh a palpably
silly statement. The Chleitain
stated yesterday that Mr. Trott's
opposition was born of prejudice.
Thero is evidently no limit to it

statement. Tho Cherokeo people
will surely not listen to u man
whose prejudice is so deeply root.
