At the present time when the townsite surveyors are every day driving down posts and establish ing corners and lines in our city, it may be well to read up on the law rotating to thoir removal Un thoughtedly some may remove them without thinking for n mo ment of the.vust trouble which they may bo incurriug to the sur veyors. The clause which has just been handed us is as follows: "That hereafter it shall be un lawful for any person to destroy, deface, change or remove to an other place, any section corner, quarter section corner, or meander post, on any government line of survey, or to cut down nny wituess tret, or any tree blajflfd to mark the line of u government survey, or to defaee, chuuge or remove any monument or bench-mark of auy government survey.

As fast a this work is done Mr Rawles puts it on the map. Mr. Joyce inspects all this work in person before it is put on the map, thereby assuring perfect accuracy in everything. Mr. Joyce says that it will be at least another month before the survey is is finished. It is a complicated ob, he said, owing to the irregu larities in our streets and blocks "What about platting the new railroad, the Choctaw, Oklahoma & Gulf, "on your tnnpt" we nsked. "We are looking for orders every day to do that very thing," he said. "The mayor and council of your city petitioned the depart ment to have that done, but the right of way of the road through the uity has not been definitely determined, and until that is done they will not instruct me to plat it. In the meantime, 1 am going! right ahead platting the town just as though no Choctaw road ex isted." It is to be hoped tbut the Choc taw people will settle deOniteh their entire right of way, terminal facilities and everything, and let the department know cf it, so that our map will show the new road.
