Assistant Secretary of tho Inte
rior Ryan, who ia quietly touring
tho territory while waiting to cast
bls.bnllot in the pending election
in Kansas, was corraled by report
ers at South MoAlester Monday
and gave an interesting interview,
indicating the department policy
in Indian aflaira. When asked as
tu what the territory could expect
from the short session of congress
Mr. Ryan said:
"I am not well versed in the
congressional situation, but I do
know that Indian Territory is more
worry to the government than all
the aides in the union. We will
welcome a change."
"What are your impressions ol
Indian Territory?"
"I fully understand the compll
cations and restrictions which this
country has had to contend with,
and I consider the remarkable de
velopment which has been made as
wonderful. There is certainly a
bright future in store for this land.
Now that Indian questions are be
ing settled I think immigration
will be very rapid, especially as
soon aB tbe Indians can sell a por
tion of their lands."
When the difficulty of getting
final title to land which citios may
be forced to annex because of nat
ural growth was mentioned Judge
Ryan said:
"It is truo that occasionally land
lying adjacent to an expanding
city may be part of the inalienable
allotment of a citizen and that
might be a bar to progress. Rut
Congress can easily remedy mat.
tera by making land near cities
alienable, if the growth of tho cit
ies demand it. The department
has extended the city limits of
somo townB which complained that
their boundaries were too narrow,
but there are many places where
relief must come through congress
in the manner suggested."

A Washington dispatch says:
The result of the balloting in the
three territories, Oklahoma, Art
zot,a and New Mexico, is awaited
with much interest by politicians
in Washington because of the ef
fect the outcome will have upon
the statehood project. Delegate
Dennis Flynn when in Washing
ton a few days ago declared that
democratic victories in the territo
ries at this election would serious
ly handicap the advocates of etalo
hood in their program to get the
statehood bill through the Senate
in December. The bill was "held
up" in tho Senate because most of
the .republican leadera there are
convinced that the admission of
these territories will strengthen
the democratic parly, sooner or
later. Senator Beveridge, chair
man of the committeo on territo
ries, frankly expresses his opposl
tion on this ground to their admis
sion.
In a discussion of this phase of
the question last spring the presi
dent declared that he was not un
easy about his ability to carry all
three ot the proposed new states.
Mr. Roosevelt realizes that he is
popular among tbe men who con
trol them. While Mr. Beveridge
and other republican senators op
posed to their admission on the
ground stated do not doubt Tresi-
dent RooBBvelt'a ability to .carry
the new electorate votes that would
be created, they are convinced tLat
tbe chances would be against any
future republican cand'date for
president. However, should the
three territories go republican next
week that would not wholly re
move the fears that control many
oi the senatorial republican lead
ers. It is by no means certain that
the omnibus statehood bill will get
through the Senate at the next ses
sion. It is not impossible, how
ever, that Oklahoma may be
singled out for admission.
