PREFACE PREFACE The information contained in this publication is compiled from official sources where official records and documents could be obtained. In other respects the most reliable unofficial data has been used. Be- ing a publication by the state, it is intended that it should be impart- ial and unprejudiced. In formation concerning political parties and their organization has been obtained from the authorized party offic- ials. Effort has been made to avoid giving prepondating importance to one party over another and where such information is meager or incomplete, it is because no better could be obtained at the time of publication. In giving this volume to the public it has been the aim to make it a book which will be desired as an addition to the libraries of the state because of its real worth. Special attention has been given to obtaining and preserving facts and historical matters which were about to become lost to the future generations of the state of Oklahoma. Owing to the lack of an historical perspective on events in Oklahoma since it became a state, the selection of the material used has of course been confined to the contemporary, and consequently could be chosen with but doubtful regret to historical value. The purpose of the book is to give Oklahomans real facts concerning their commonwealth and to, at the same time bear a message to the residents of other states who may desire to know something of Oklahoma's make-up, political, social, economic and historical.

The long fight made by the "colonies" for entrance to the forbidden land showed the charcater of the men and women who were to become the basic ele- ment of the state's citizenship. As the desire for unoccupied lands grew, a large army of prospective settlers clamored for the unused lands of Indian Territory. These settlers joined forces with the rail- roads and together they waged war on the cattle kings of Oklahoma's pastoral regime. On April 15, 1879, T. C. Sears, an attorney for the M. K. & T., railroad announced that there were fourteen million acres of public land located here which were subject to homestead entry. This seems to have been the original discovery of the "unassigned lands" and immediately aroused much interest. Three "colonies" were or- ganized. Charles C. Carpenter, a leader of one of the colonies and a man who, three years before, had rushed the Black Hills region, cros- sed the border with his band May 7, 1879, but was promptly ejected by general Wesley Merritt in command of troops of the Fifth Cavalry. David L. Payne then came to the front as an organizer -and leader of the boomers. Again and again presidential proclamations warned the boomers out of the forbidden territory, but as often did Captain Payne and his persistent followers return only to be ejected. Much agitation of the question of settlement resulted. The sudden death of Captain Payne at Wellington, Kas., November 27, 1884, put something of a damper on boomer enthusiasm, although the next year Captain Wil- liam L. Couch, Payne's lieutenant, led another expedition into what is now Payne County. He was forced to withdraw and made a second attempt in November of the same year with no better success. It was in 1885 that the Santa Fe railroad was built into the Ter- ritory from Arkansas City, and the boomers were convinced that Ok- lahoma, would soon be opened to settlement by legal proclamation. and invasion was given up. In the interim from 1885 to 1889, the boomers turned their at- tention to "No Man's-Land". When Texas joined the United States in 1845, all its territory north of thirty-six degrees and thirty minutes had to be surrendered because, according to the Missouri compromise there would be no more slave territory north of that line. By the organization of Kansas in 1856 its southern boundary was made thirty- seven degrees. This left a strip of land thirty minutes in width from the 100th meridian, north of Texas and south of Kansas, long known as "No Man's Land." The Indians laid no claim to this region and the cattlemen had already taken possession of those limitless prairies, now constituting the Pan Handle of Oklahoma or Beaver, Texas and Cimarron counties. By the spring of 1887, it was estimated that six xviii OKLAHOMA RED BOOK thousand people had entered this unorganized territory. The region had not been surveyed, there was no land office, and titles could not be obtained. The settlers, however, organized a claim board and set up a government of their own. A convention was held in March, 1887, and the "'Territory of Cimarron" was organized and a delegate elected to Congress. A territory legislature was elected in the fall of 1887 and it was in session most of the following winter. A full set of territorial officers and a new delegate to Congress were chosen in November 1888. Here the tnatter ended. The Territory of Cimar- ron was forgotten the next year when Oklahoma was opeiied by the provisions of a "rider" on the Indian Appropriation Bill and in 1890 it vi'as made an Oklahoma county. President Benjamin F. Harrison issued the proclamation opening Oklahoma to settlement April 22, 1889, thus ending the long fight be- tween the farmer and the herdman. THE OPENING OF OKLAHOMA Never was there such a race in the history of the world. Since ^^^9 when ttie Fort Smith soldiers ejected the settlers on the Kiamitia this had been a forbidden region. "For three quarters of a century the tide of migration had'surged against this wall. Finally when it gave way, the eager settlers hurled themselves upcn the coveted land, as did the ancient Israelites upon the fields of Canaan. The racers had to cross the Cherokee strip, sixty miles in width, in their rush from the Kansas border before they arrived at the land open to settlement. The three days preceding the opening were allowed for this. Now, women and children on horseback and on foot, with buggies, wagons, oxcarts, horses and ponies, all gathered on the line as the hour of noon approached. The noise and .confusion ceased as the moment for the start drew near. With set faces these racers for homes closely watched the officer who, with v/atch in hand, awaited the appointed moment. Suddenly from the carbines of the cavalrymen there came a puff of smoke. The crashing report of the guns was drowned in the mighty shout of the waiting thousands as they crossed the line. On they went in breath- less haste. The solid front shown at the moment of the start was soon broken, and the forces of the invading boomers seemed rather the wild route of a 'defeated foe than the advance of an invading one." The majority of the settlers came into the territory from the north, but considerable numbers came from the Chickasaw country on the south and the Pottawatomie reservation, which joined the open district on the east. The "rider" which opened Oklahoma to settlement was the hurried expedient of an almost defeated contingent. No provision was made for a territorial government, and no local laws were in force, but stipu- lations were made that town sites could be laid out. In a day, places which were but railroad sidings with a water tank, a section house, and a name, have become bustling cities, with a population of several thousand. Provision was made that any person who should enter the new country previous to the moment set for the opening would forfeit his right to hold land, thus becoming a "sooner". Many quarrels over claims and town lots arose. Often there was recourse to arms to settle these disputes. In Oklahoma City rival land companies con- tended for possession of lots, and a bitter feud raged for months. INTRODUCTORY xix City governments were at once organized, and wliile tliese had no real authority, according to the strict letter of the law, yet they were obeyed ana proved as useful and efficient a means of maintain- ing order as were the wholly self-constituted governments of the New England Puritans. The Organic Act, legally establishing Oklahoma Territory and pro- viding a toim of government became a law on May 2, 189T). Power was given the president to appoint the governor and the secretary, and the judges of the supreme court. The governor was given the power to appoint all other executive officials. The legislature consisted of a council of thir{een members and a house of representatives of twenty- six. The supreme court judges acted also as district judges, and as the territory grew in size and population, the number of these judges was increased from three to five and then to seven. George W. Steele of Indiana became the first territorial governor, May 22, 1890. Guthrie was designated as the temporarj^; capital and remained so until June 11, 1911, when it was moved to, Oklahoma City by referendum vote of the citizens. The election was held invalid by the State Supreme Court on a defect in the bill, but Governor Haskell called a special session of the legislature, which body located the capital at Oklahoma City, December 29th by more than a two-thirds majority vote. After being in office a year and a half Governor Steele resigned and on October 18, 1891, Judge A. J. Seay, a supreme court judge of the territory was named to succeed him. "President Cleveland appointed Vv. C. Renfrow to succeed Seay May 7, 1893. Renfrow serv- ed th'^ f'']l four years and was succeeded by Cassius M. Barnes of Guthrie May 24,, 1897. Governor Barnes also served a full term of four years and William M. Jenkins, also of Guthrie, was named as his suc- cessor April 15, 1901. Governor Jenkins served but a little over seven months when he was summarily removed by President Roose- velt. Thompson P. Ferguson of Watonga was appointed to fill the vacancy on November 30, 1901. He held office for more than the full term of four years, remaining in office until January 5, 1906, when he was sucf>eeded bv Frank Frantz, a captain in Roosevelt's regiment of Rough Riders, during the Spanish-American War. He served as chief executive of the territory until November 16, 1907, when the territory was admitted with the Indian Territory as Oklahoma, the Firty-iSxth State. Treaties were made with the Iowa, the Sac and Fox, and the Pot- tawatomie and Shawnees by which those reservations were opened to settlement Sept. 22, 1891. The Cheyenne and Arapaho country was opened to settlement by like manner April 19, 1892. Finally the cattle kings of the Cherokee Outlet were routed and this strip of surplus land of the Cherokee, was ceded back to the government by the In- dians and then opened for settlement, Sept. 16, 1893. This was a re- petition of the former runs. "Sooner" and the pistol played an even more prominent part at this opening than at previous runs." In May, 189.5, the Kickapoo county, a small district lying between the reserva- tions of the Iowa and Pottawatomies was opened to settlement. This was the last of the Indian lands to be opened with a "run." At the Kiowa-Comanche-Caddo opening August 6, 1901, the farms were dis- tributed by means of a lottery. Greer county, a disputed portion of land claimed by Texas, was awarded to the jui'isdiction of Oklahoma by a decision of the Supreme Court in 1895. David A. Harvey was the first delegate to represent Oklahoma at Washington. He was elected in November, 1890, under the terms of the Organic Act, but was allowed no vote. Dennis T. Flynn was chos- en in 1892 to succeed Harvey. He was re-elected in 18t94. but was de- feated in 1896 by James Y. Callahan. In 1898 Flynn was again elected and remained in office until 1903 when he was succeeded by Bird S. XX OKLAHOMA RED BOOK McGuire, who held the office until the coming of statehood. Almost immediately after the settlers had rushed into Oklahoma, agitation for statehood began, for the new territory soon had more people than many states. Numerous statehood conventions were held in Oklahoma Territory and at these the question immediately pre- sented itself as to whether there should be one or two states carved out of the Twin Territories. The advocates of single statehood felt that the mines and vast oil interests of the eastern part of what is now the state and the agricultural industries of the western half would naturally supplement each other. The advocates of double statehood pointed out that the small and sparsely settled New England states had two senators apiece, and that since each half of Oklahoma already had a larger population than many of these states, simple justice demanded that the Southwest should have this added repres- entation. The so-called "Sequoyah Constitutional Convention" was the only determined effort made by Indian Territory to secure statehood, in- dependently of Oklahoma Territory. Delegates from the Five Nations met at Muskogee in July, 1905. A constitution for this portion of Ok- lahoma was framed, and the prospective state was named "Sequoyah," in honor of the inventor of the Cherokee alphabet. William H. Mur- ray, who came from the Chickasaw nation and Charles N. Haskell, who later became the first governor, were actively identified as dele- gates in the convention. The constitution written by this convention was given little recognition by Congress, but its work gave the white men of the Civilized Tribes an opportunity to get together, so that when the convention met at Guthrie during the following year to frame a constitution for the united territories, a group of delegates who had worked together in the Sequoyah Convention easily forged to leadership. Finally the Omnibus Bill was signed by President Roosevelt June 14, 1906. The bill was so called because it united Oklahoma and In- dian Territories as one state and Arizona and New Mexico as an- other. The Enabling Act provided for a constitutional convention of one hundred and twelve members, fifty-five from Oklahoma, fifty-five from Indian Territory and two from the Osage Nation. The election of delegates was held and they met at Guthrie, November 20, 1906. Wm. H. Murray of Tishomingo was elected president. He had served as vice-president of the Sequoyah convention and was subsequently elected speaker of the first legislature. C. N. Haskell was the demo- cratic floor leader. The constitution framed was adopted by a majority of 107,274 and the entire democratic state ticket was elected at the election, Sept., 17, 1907. The two territories were admitted as the state of Oklahoma, November 17, 1907. Chas. N. Haskell was elected governor and Thomas P. Gore and Robt. L. Owen were chosen the first U. S. Sen- ators from the new state. Bird S. McGuire. Elmer L. Fulton, James S. Davenport, Charles D. Carter and Scott Ferris were elected as the first Congressmen OKLAHOMA'S CITIZENSHIP. The Oklahoman is a proud individual. He is rich, not wealthy, less aristocratic. Rich in earned pride in so many things of which to be proud, not vain. Praiseful without boasting. However humble the lot cast in Oklahoma, that lot has changed and ^very Oklahoman stands with head erect, though not in the air. The past life of en- forced drudge, of toil and hardships, that surrounding void of oppor- tunity entailed; the venture made for a chance of life in a strange, untried field, each a stranger to each, necessitating self introductions. INTRODUCTORY xxi each to each forced to a sudden fraternization, which born of neces- sity, became an innate quality, deep and deeper burned in with the brand of observance until there has been developed an unconquerable trait of nature. Hence, the proverbial characteristic of the Oklahoman for sociabil- ity, commonality and generous impulse, the gate ajar for a stranger as well, with no sword of jealousy over the arch; welcome over every door, the latch string out. From the previous drudge to swift gather- ings of all that modern pleasure desires, the Oklahoman rests in ease and comfort, not in that luxury which breeds indolence and fosters pomp. From peonage to peerage, why not proud? For "it was not the wealth and affluence that gathered here with coffers of gold." But the crack of a gun on that forever memorable day when Oklahoman's green gates were thrown open, sounded the crack of doom to poverty and distress to those who waited on the margin of "The Land of the Fair God." The day of jubilee under proclaimed script from the in- finite, bidding the bondman go free; and sunset of the first day cast fading rays on a surging, seething tide of venture, rushing, jostling, struggling. The like was never seen before, never will be seen again in its extent, in its orderly tumult. And what system, what patience in that mad cavalcade of adventure; what noble citizenship stamped peace and fraternity and, good fellowship upon that clamorous, tumult- ous mass in the heterogeneous scramble for vantage! Beneath each foot of the sea of green that day, each throb that thrilled the untamed swards of Oklahoma, lay limitless the germ of rich harvests, of fruits, in florescent splendor, exhaustless the latent resources, and immeasurable by calculation the possibilities. These came, homeless, to seek a home; moneyless, to coin from the respons- ive soil. They "had tasted from the bitter cups of drudgery and dis- tress, but came as the children of favors delayed. They came with their manhood, their womanhood, with their patience, their good citi- zenship, with hope. They had calculated on hardships, for the time, and deprivations; these they met with heroic will and conquered. They smote the hillsides and gushing streams issued forth; they em- braced the virgin fields, and golden sheaves were conceived. Poverty and self-denials vanished as did the mists above the drenched wastes. Herds increased, great bins groaned wtih their care of grains, and the keys to golden stores were turned. Even as Midas prayed for vint- age god that all he touched might turn to gold, so Ceres heard the plea of Oklahoman husbandry, and the primitive is now a reminiscence engraved on aureate plaques. So came the merchant, the baker, the craftsman. Churches, edu- cational institutions sprang up as if from spontaneity at the nod of Allah. Industries spread like fires before the wild winds of the burn- ing'plain. Venture predicated upon the latent resources of Oklahoma, so that yesterday a seat of improvised tents and habitations less pro- vised — today, collossal marts and palatial homes. That community which can assure itself that its citizenship is on a plane with the best known to civilization has the greatest asset obtainable. The circumstances under which the state of Oklahoma was open- ed as a territory to white settlement was such as to assemble, in a single day, a quarter of a million hardy, aggressive, intellectual, dar- ing people from practically every state in the union. Among these were few indeed to whom might not be applied the title "an uncrown- ed king." Only brave hearted, strong minded folk permit themselves to th drawn into a vortex such as was that seething mass formed on the opening day of Oklahoma. Cowards and degenerates could not endure such a strain. Few who came here at that time ever gave the question of returning to their former abodes a second thought. They xxii OKLAHOMA RED BOOK knew the natural advantages of the section they had chosen for a future home, and they bravely faced every hardship to make the ef- fort of their lives to make good individually. How well they suc- ceeded in this is manifested in the wonderful strides made in every county in the now popular young commonwealth in the sisterhood of states. The world has never produced an assemblage of braver, stronger, cleaner specimens of manhood and womanhood than those liberty lov- ing, patriotic, determined men and women who walked from the decks of the May Flower at Plymouth Rock, three hundred years ago and those brilliant Cavaliers who landed at Jamestown in 1607. They form- ed a foundation for a citizenship, which has spread westward steadily and conquered both foe and nature. The same strong arms that wielded the ax in the forests of the New England states in the years that followed the arrival of these patriots, to clear the fields for plant- ing a citizenry, which has reproduced and multiplied descendants whose valor has never dimmed, whose love of country, freedom of speech, pride of home and loyalty to our institutions, have grown stronger as the nation has become popular and its people independent. Thousands of the descendants of these hardy pioneers were to be found astride striped legged ponies dashing across the sun kissed prairies of Oklahoma on that memorable day, April 22, 1889. A large majority of them may be found, multiplied and advanced in keeping with the time, among the business men throughout the state. There is a larger per centage of people residing within the boundaries of Oklahoma today, in proportion to population, eligible to membership in that society known as the Daughters of the American Revolution than in any other state. Situated in the central southwest, well removed from any sea- shore, Oklahoma feels less the influx into the country of undesir- able immigrants from foreign shores than almost any other state. The fact that the assimulation of these immigrants aften require two or more generations, renders their admission in larger numbers imdesir- able, hence the fact that Oklahomans are largely American born citi- zens, keen in their conception of the higher ideals of our form of gov- ernment and its institutions, places the state upon a plane above many of its sister states. The low-class foreigners in his ignorance of our institutions bothers little here, hence the few who stray into our midst are lonesome and not impressed by the reception accorded them when they enter into competition with our typical class of active Americans. A territory situated as Oklahoma naturally appeals to the best people and those most informed of the advantages of a home in a temperate clime, from all over the nation. For this reason there has been developed in twenty years a citizenship of the most pronounced cosmopolitan type. There were just enough descendants from the Cavalier aristocracy of the Old South to blend with the Puritan that formed the Westerner, and then came the typical Yankee of the East, making concessions, e'ach to the other; which character calculated to develop a race unlike anything in the world, and retain a pride of race and respect for that hope for a higher civilization any true American must prize. In order that the full story of Oklahoma's empire builders be told, it would require the hand of the historian, the foresight of the statesman, and the knowledge of the ethnologist of racial and social conditions and racial and social characteristics of the various races and tribes of men which have become component parts of its citizenry. To clearly depict the life of a people and the growth of a state, which in little more than one score years has been changed from a prairie waste with a lonesome ranch house here and there in some sleepy' valley, to the INTRODUCTORY xxiii forefront of the sisterhood of states, and whose banner is seen proudly waving, unsullied and unstained, in the thickest of the industrial and political battle as the battle flag of the great humanitarian forces, would require the hand of no mean artist. Oklahoma's constitution, like her people, is a product of the entire union. That document has been pronounced as one of the greatest declaration of rights of the common people which has ever been laid down. It ranks with the Magna Charta. It contains the best of the ages. Oklahoma's great leaders and its constitution framers were able to glean the best from the fruits of the years and then wrote that into the fundamental document of our laws. Oklahoma's men and women have come fi'om practically every state in the union. It is the scene of the final stand of the Indian against the Anglo-Saxon's form of civilization. It is the fusing point o| the ideas and energy of the Southron, the Northerner and the Easterner. It is the one great bright spot in the southwestern corner of the nation's political firmament. From here will come a new type man of the age. The southwest has been the objective point of some of the best educated, best trained, best equipped men of the nation who have forsaken the more crowded avenues of success in the older states and have come hither to achieve their fame and fortune. As a result a new type-man of the first quarter of the Twentieth Century must come from the recently unsettled southwest. OKLAHOMA STATE SEAL The conception of the Oklahoma state seal is peculiarly happy in that it combines in a perfect symbol the Great Seal of the Territory of Oklahoma with those of the Five Civilized Tribes, the Great Seal of the Territory of Oklahoma being in the center of a five-pointed star, in each projection of which is one of the national emblems of the red men's former gov- ernments. The device of the seal was the work of Dr. A. Grant Evans, formerly president of the Oklahoma State University, J. J.

The school lands of Oklahoma are a heritage to the coming gen- erations, the magnitude of which is difficult to comprehend from the present viewpoint of history. Under the act of Congress, approved March 4, 1889, opening Ok- lahoma to settlement, sections 16 and 36 in each township were re- served for the use and benefit of the common schools, and the reser- vation was confirmed by the organic act of the territory. It had been customary in all territories in which school land was reserved to allow the land to lie idle until such time as the Territory was admitted to statehood, when some provision would be made for the disposal of the lands. Territorial Governor George W. Steele conceived the plan of hav- ing the lands leased for a term of years. 'He went to Washington and as tbe result of his visit, authority was given the Governor of the Ter- ritory by an act of congress approved March 3, 1891 to lease such lands under such rules and regulations as might be prescribed by the Secre- tary of the Interior. Soon after the school land department was organized with one clerk, appointed by the Secretary of the Interior, and the leasing of land was begun. By the act of Congress approved May 4, 1894, a board for leasing school lands was created, composed of the Governor. Secretary of the territory, and superintendent of public instruction who were author- ized to lease such lands under the rules and regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior until laws for the administration of the trust should be passed by the territorial legislature. The Third Legislature failed to pass such legislation. The Fifth Legislature passed a bill which was vetoed by Governor Renfrew and May 3, 1899, the board, as created bv the act of Congress adopted a new set of rules and regulations of its own accord, governing the leasing of land. It was provided in the ordinance for the government of the Northwest Territory in 1787, that Section 16 in every township be set aside for the maintenance and support of a public school system. Thomas Jefferson was the real author of the public school system prevalent throughout the various states of the Union. In 1848, Section 36 was added to Section 16 for the support and maintenance of a com- mon school system in all the public lands of the United States out of which states might be created. STATE DEPARTMENTS 45 Oklahoma was opened to settlement by the act of Congress under this law, April 22, 1889. When the Cherokee Strip was opened, Presi- dent Cleveland under the direction of Congress, added section 13 for the support of state educational institutions and Section 33 for the erection of public buildings for the state, which created an endow- ment of 1,415,862 acres of land for the common or district schools, and 1,712,633 for public buildings and for five higher educational institu- tions. The national government in the Enabling Act in 1907, gave $5,- 000,000 in lieu of Sections 16 and 36, which could not be had in the Indian Territory section of the state. The Governor, Secretary of State, State Auditor, Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the President of the Board of Agriculture, under the provisions of Sections 32, 33 and 34, of Article VI of the State Constitution, constitute the Commissioners of the Land Office, who shall have charge of the sale, rental, disposal and managing of the school lands and other public lands of the State, and of the funds and proceeds derived therefrom. An account is kept by the officers and commissioners of the State of all moneys and choses in action disbursed or otherwise dis- posed of severally by them, from all sources and for every service performed; and a report thereof shall be made semi-annually and as^ often as may be required by law, to the Governor under oath.

BY KIRBY FITZPATRICK (Chief Examiner of Titles for State Scliool Land Department). Delivered before the American Association of Title Men, at Little Rock, Ark., November 18, 1911. The discussion of the original source of Oklahoma titles properly falls into two divisions: First: The source from which the original individual owner ac- quired the fee; Second: The condition under which the invidvidual ownei- can convey a fee simple; Inasmuch as the entire area of Oklahoma except the three extreme western counties was originally included in the Indian Territory, the discussion necessarily involves a consideration of Indian laws and treaties from the foundation of the republic, and even before. Among the European nations which established colonies in Amer- ica, the doctrine became firmly established that a grant from the Crown carried to a colony only the exclusive right to purchase from the Indians, at such time as they saw fit to sell, their right of occupancy, which right of occupancy remained fixed in the Indian tribes. The supreme court of the United States has held time and time again that the United States in acquiring sovereignty once held by European nations succeeded only to such rights as the said nations themselves claimed; in other words, the Indian tribes owned a life estate in the territory which they occupied, while the United States held merely a vested remainder. Our government, in dealing with the Indian right of occupancy has proceeded on the theory that each sub-division of the human race has, according to the law of nature, a right to a reasonable portion of the earth's surface, and that the Indian had no right to roam, unmolested, through this imperial domain, while other parts of the human .family were huddled together in countries over-crowded to such an extent as to make existence extremely precarious and well night intolerable. The government, therefore, exercised the right of racial eminent c'omain, and while each cession of territory has been accompanied by the formality of a treaty, such treaty was invariably procured by fraud or under duress and for a consideration the insufficiency of which is well nigh appalling, and should be revolting to the national con- science. Thus, this princely and warlike race, the most virile type of aborigines the world has known, was, by conquest, duress and fraud, reduced to a state of abject hoplessness and forced to assume a form of civilization for which they were not prepared; herded on reserva- tions or allotted on meager quarter sections, which scanty pittance is the patrimony left from the vast domain, all of which, under the construction of our supreme court, should have descended as a heritage to the Indians, in the absence of an alienation for a valuable consideration. 52 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK When we contemplate a spectacle such as the purchase of Man- hattan Island for twenty-four dollars (which was paid with three dollars worth of beads) can we wonder that these children of the forest stood appalled when they saw the land that they thought was to be merely a joint hunting ground being actually reduced to possession, dismantled of its timber, and hedged about with forts? Is it strange that their sense of justice was outraged, and their thirst of vengeance aroused, that they fell back step by step, contesting every foot of ground, leaving the bones of their warriors scattered from the Atlantic to the plains, and quenching with their own life blood every camp fire that the invader built? When tiring of the unequal struggle, crowded out by an encroach- ing civilization, the Choctaws, Chickasaws, Cherokees, Creeks and Seminoles (now known as the Five Civilized Tribes) relinquished their right of occupancy to all of the country east of the Mississippi, being granted in exchange the fee to the greater part of the area of what is now Oklahoma; they were promised undisputed enjoyment of this hunting ground so long as the grass grew, and so long as the rivers ran on to the sea; but soon the tide of material civilization overran their borders until the intermarried whites and mixed bloods were able to control an election by which a treaty was adopted, against the wishes of ninety per cent of the full-blood Indians, re- linquishing the tribal right and agreeing to a partition of their lands to the individual members of the tribe; and thus the last flower of the most ideal tribal relations the world has ever known has been ruthlessly blotted from the earth. The government, from time to time, purchased from the Five Civilized Tribes that part of their lands lying in what was Oklahoma Territory, and settled thereon remnants of many scattered tribes, allowing them to hold only under the ordinary right of occupancy, with the exception of what is now the Osage Nation, which land was purchased by the government from the Cherokees and sold out- right to the Great and Little Osages and the Kaws. When the Territory of Oklahoma was organized, all of the Indian Territory, except what was then occupied by the Five Civilized Tribes, was cut off and, together with the public lands lying west of the one hundredth meridian, known as "No Man's Land," was formed into Oklahoma Territory. The government, from time to time, purchased from the scat- tered tribes in Oklahoma Territory their right of occupancy, in exchange giving to each member an individual allotment and issuing what is known as a "trust patent," which provides that the govern- ment shall hold the land for twenty-five years in trust for the allottee or his heirs. The lands, purchased from the above mentioned scattered tribes, together with the public-lands strip above referred to, was from time to time, opened to homestead settlement under the general homestead laws of the United States; the settlers, after proof of settlement and final payment, being issued a fee simple patent. Out of the public land aforesaid, the government, from time to time, has set aside an amount aggregating three million, one hundred and twenty-six thousand, four hundred and ninety-five and seventy- five one-hundredths acres (worth at this time at least fifty million dollars) ; the title to which land is held by the state of Oklahoma in trust for the benefit of the schools and public buildings of the state. This land is controlled by the commissioners of the land office, and will be treated under the general head of "School Lands." STATE DEPARTMENTS 53 When it became necessary to establish towns in Indian Territory, the government, acting as the trustee for the respective tribes, set aside townsites, plotted and sold the lots, issuing to the purchasers thereof a fee simple patent. There was left over, after allotting to the Indians of the Osage nation, and the Five Civilized Tribes, certain lands which are at this time being sold by the government, as trustee, the purchaser receiving from the chiefs of the respective tribes a fee simple patent. Thus we have in Oklahoma seven distinct classes of land: A — Homestead entries; B — Town lots in Indian Territory and Osage Nation; C — Land purchased from Indian tribes; D — School lands; E — Land held by individual Indians of the Osage Nation; F — Land held under trust patent by members of scattered tribes; G — Land held by individual members of the Five Civilized Tribes. This brings us to the second division of the subject namely: "The Condition Under Which the Original Individual Owner May Convey a Fee Simple Title." The general laws of conveyancing, administration and guardian- ship proceedings, tax titles, sale under execution, probation of will, etc., as modified by our statutes, of course, govern in Oklahoma. I will, therefore, only discuss conditions perculiar to the respective classes of land; and while it is impossible to give an exhaustive treatise on titles in a limited space, however, the following will be found to cover the principal laws governing the transfer of Oklahoma Indian land, acting under which an unquestionable title may be ac- quired. Classes "A," "B," and "C" are alienable at will after issuance of patent. Class "D" (school lands) is from time to time being sold under statutory authority by the commissioners of the land office at public auction, the purchaser, upon payment of five per cent of the purchase price is issued a certificate of purchase (which is transferrable), the remainder of the purchase being paid in forty equal annual install- ments, drawing interest at five per cent with the option of the pur- chaser of paying up after five years, and upon full payment the purchaser received a fee simple patent from the commissioners of the land office. About ten thousand quarter sections of agricultural school land is held under lease, the lessees having, under the constitution, a preference right to take the land at the highest bid; while if the lessee elects to allow the bidder to take the land, the purchaser must pay the lessee, in cash, the appraised value of improvements on the land, as appraised by the commissioners of the land office. Class "E" lands in the Osage Nation are held by the Osages and Kaws subject to certain restrictions. The act of congress of June 27, 1906, provides that the adult members of the Osage tribe may sell their surplus land, provided the Secretary of the Interior, upon due investigation, will certify that the particular Indian is competent to attend to his own affairs. The act of Congress of March 3, 1909, authorized the Secretary of the Interior, as trustee for the Indians, to sell any surplus land in the Osage Nation (both the Kaws and the Osages) provided, how- ever, that the mineral rights to lands, belonging to the Osages, should remain the property of the tribe, for a period of twenty-five years. 54 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK Class "F": Trust patents to the members of the various scat- tered tribes in what was Oklahoma Territory were issued under the general allotment act of 1887, which act has the following language: " * * * The United States does, and will, hold the land thus allotted for the period of twenty-five years in trust for the sole use and benefits of the Indian to whom such allottment shall have been made, or in case of his decease, of his heirs according to the law of the state or territory where such land is located." This section was amended by the act of May 27, 1902 (32 Stat. 275), which amendment governs in the sale of such estates in Oklahoma. (See rules and regulations, approved by the interior department, October 12, 1910, Section 10.) Said act of May 27, 1902, section 7, has the following language: "That the adult heirs of any deceased Indian to whom trust or other patent containing restrictions upon alienation has been or shall be issued for lands allotted to him, may sell and convey the lands inherited from such decendant, but in cases of minor heirs, their interest shall be sold only by guardian duly appointed by the proper court upon the order of such court, made upon petition filed by the guardian, but such conveyance shall be subject to the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, and when so approved shall convey full title to the purchaser, the same as if final patent without re- strictions upon alienation had been issued to the allottee." The Department of the Interior holds that under the last quoted section the trust estates of Indians (deceased) are not subject to the jurisdiction of state courts (probate or other) and that all that is necessary in order that heirs may convey under said section is to establish heirship by affidavit, thus securing the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, which the Interior Department holds con- veys an indefeasible title. On the other hand, I hold that the approval of the deed of the heirs by the Interior Department merely acts as relinquishment, on the part of the government, of all restrictions against the conveyance of said land, but that such approval does not preclude unknown heirs, who were not a party to the said approval, from setting up a claim to title in the land question and that the effect of said deed is merely an absolute conveyance of all the rights which the parties grantor hold in the said land. I hold that said section seven provides a procedure not for the determination of heirship, but merely a procedure by which the government relinquishes the restrictions on such land. The question as to who the adult heirs of the deceased Indian are must be determined "according to the law of the state or territory where such land is located," as is provided in the general allotment act above quoted. The language of the said section, "when so approved shall convey full title to the purchaser the same as if final patent without restrictions upon the alienation had been issued to the allottee," it seems to me, can have one effect only, namely, to place the heirs of the said allottee in the same status as the heirs of the estate of a white man, "The same a8 if final patent without restrictions upon alienation had been issued to the allottee." Had such fee simple patent been issued to the allottee during his life, there is no power in the federal government other than armed force that could rob an unknown heir, who is a citizen of Oklahoma of his right to a participation in his patrimony, without due process of law. Class "G": Titles to the lands held by the Five Civilized Tribes are exceedingly complex, inasmuch as each tribe had its local laws and has been governed by separate treaties and acts of Congress STATE DEPARTMENTS 65 (with the exception of Choctaws and Chickasaws, who are governed by the same laws) So that, in passing on these titles more than two hundred and fifty conditions may arise wliich do not appear in the ordinary title. Nevertheless, these titles are just as fixed and certain as any titles, provided one stays within the clear meaning of the acts of Congress. There is a class of title that all admit is alienable, and another class that all admit is inalienable; then there is the twilight zone of uncertainty in which lurks speculators known as "grafters," wno, either through ignorance of, or total disregard for the acts of Coi»- gress, have purchased thousands of acres of land, the alienability of which has always been questioned by the more conservative title experts of the state, and because of this very uncertainty, these lands have been acquired at a nominal purchase price. A bona fide purchaser, seeking legitimate investment at a fair consideration can acquire an absolute title to thousands of acres of Indian land, which has never been questioned by the courts, provided he will seek the counsel of any reputable title expert. In the Marchie Tiger case, the supreme court of Oklahoma held that the provisions of the act of April 26, 1906, requiring the Secretary of the Interior to approve the deed of full blood heirs, was retroactive and could not be held to apply to a class of land the restrictions on which had expired under the operation of a prior act. This decision, inasmuch as it involved the interpretation of a federal statute, was in no sense conclusive, but stood subject to review by the supreme court of the United States. While I have the utmost respect for the supreme court of my state, I could not hold with them in this interpretation and there- fore, for the last three years have refused to recommend loans of this character; the position is vindicated by the fact that on May 11, 1911, the Marchie Tiger case was reversed by the Supreme Court of the United States; and the records of the commissioners of the land office will show that I have disapproved more than one hun- dred thousand dollars worth of loans on which the state would now hold worthless mortgages had I seen fit to follow the ruling of the Supreme Court of Oklahoma in the Marchie Tiger case. While it is estimated that the celebrated Marchie Tiger case made void the title under which more than one-quarter million acres of land was held in Oklahoma, I submit that every acre of this land was purchased with the full knowledge that the title was uncertain and the reason this land was purchased rather than land that had unquestionable title was that the clouded title forced down the market value. In the case of Hancock, et al., vs. the Mutual Trust Company, the Supreme Court of Oklahoma held that prior to the act of Congress approved May 26, 1906, and under the act of July 18, 1902, the heirs of a deceased Cherokee Indian might alienate the lands inherited from such a decendant. A similar question came before the Secretary of the Interior on January 29, 1907, in the case of the heirs of Robinson Watson, and upon an opinion from the Attorney General of the United States, the Secretary of the Interior made a ruling on alfours with the above holding of the Supreme Court of Oklahoma. On October 17, 1908, the identical tract of land, title to which was held to be good, in the above case of the Watson heirs, was submitted to the state for a loan, and I disapproved the title in the following language: " • * * I do not agree with the reasoning of the honor- able Attorney General of the United States. I think that the deduc- tion is unsound and farfetched in the extreme. * • ♦ My 66 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK opinion is that while this class of title is such that a speculator might afford to invest his own money thereon, it is not such as would justify a trustee in loaning a fund which is to be held sacred for the benefit of the unborn generations of the school children of the state. This law is retroactive in its nature, therefore, there is some question as to its constitutionality, but until the courts pass on this question the only safe position is to follow the act of Congress, of April 26, 1906." While this point has not yet been decided by the Supreme Court of the United States, yet a ruling contrary to the above ruling of the Attorney General was made June 7, 1911, by the Honorable At- torney General of the United States, in re the heirs of Lucy Cole; holding squarely that such lands were inalienable. Of the four million dollars loaned by the commissioners of the land office since statehood, three-quarters of a million is on Indian land to which the title is unassailable. The Attorney General of the United States, October 17, 1909, construing section nine of the act of Congress of May 27, 1908, held that its provisions were not retroactive, and that all conveyances by full-blood heirs of the deceased allottees who died prior to May 27, 1908, in order to pass a valid title to the estate of said deceased allottees must be approved by the Secretary of the Interior. On May 27, 1911, the Supreme Court of Oklahoma in the case of MacHarry vs. Batman (not et published) held directly to the contrary, and the United States court for the eastern district of Oklahoma has also held with the Supreme Court of Oklahoma in a case parallel with the one above referred to. It is my opinion that the Attorney General in the above opinion has correctly interpreted the law and that this interpretation will oe followed by the Supreme Court of the United Stateg in due time. However, as the state and federal authorities are clearly at variance on this point, which has been adjudicated by both state and federal courts, the only safe method in approving titles of this class, prior to a final adjudication, is to require the approval of the Secretary ot the Interior, and also of the probate court. Where the original allottee has parted with his title and the purchase is from a party other than the allottee, the question of the v^alidity of the title depends upon the date of the deed from the original allottee. With the exception of the Creek Nation, there was practically no land in the Five Civilized Tribes alienable prior to the act of April 21, 1904, which law is still effective and was supplemented by the act of April 26, 1906. Next in point is the purchase direct from the Indian, in which case the act of Congress, approved May 27, 1908, which became operative after sixty days, namely, July 26, 1908, governs absolutely irrespective of previous enactments on the subject, with the exception of certain conditions as to the estates of deceased Indians. The acts of Congress above referred to form the main basis of alienation of Indian lands and effect all of the Five Civilized Tribei alike. Next came a few specific acts relating to individual tribes. In the Choctaw and Chickasaw agreement, approved by Congress July 1, 1902 (33 Stat. L. 641), Section sixteen is as follows: "All lands allotted to members of said tribes, except such land as Is set aside to each for homestead as herein provided shall be alien- able after issuance of patent as follows : One-fourth In acreage ih one year, one-fourth in acreage In three years, and the balance In five years; in each case from the date of patent. Provided, that such land STATE DEPARTMENTS 57 shall not be alienable by the allottee or his heirs at any time before the expiration of the Choctaw and Chickasaw tribal governments for less than its appraised value." This law remained in effect until the act of May 26, 1908, with regard to all Indians except full-bloods, having been repealed as to full-bloods by the act of April 26, 1906. The law was never effective as to Choctaw and Chickasaw freedmen, because such freedmen had no surplus allottment, the land being homestead. In the Creek agreement on March 9, 1900 (31 Stat. L. 861) Section 7, we find the following language: "Lands allotted to citizens hereunder shall not in any manner whatsoever or at any time, be encumbered, taken or sold to secure or satisfy any debt or obligation contracted or created prior to the date of the deed to the allottee therefor, and such lands shall not be alien- able by the allottee or his heirs at any time before the expiration of five years from the ratification of this agreement, except with the ap- proval of the secretary of the interior." The supplemental Creek treaty of June 30, (30 Stat. L. 500), Sec- tion 16, reaffirms the above proposition of law in practically the same language, its only effect being the extension of the time to five years from the date of said supplemental agreement instead of five years from the date of the original agreement, therefore, from March 1, 1901, until August 8, 1907, the surplus allottment of the Creek Indians could be sold with the approval of the Secretary of the Interior. After August 8, 1907, the surplus land of said Creeks, except full- bloods, could be sold free ffom any restrictions and without the ap- proval of the Secretary of the Interior, said condition existing until the act of July 26, 1908, which act repealed the provision of the treaty above quoted. There were certain conditions under which the Creek citizen could make a valid will to his land prior to April 26, 1904, but titles arising under these conditions are so rare that it is not deemed sufficiently important to be of great interest. Cherokee Agreement, approved April 21, 1902 (32 Stat. L. 716) Section 15, is as follows: "All the lands allotted to members of said tribe, except such lands as set aside for homestead as herein provided, shall be alienable in five years after the issuance of patent." This provision was repealed as to full-bloods by the act of April 26, 1906, and repealed as to all other Indians by act of July 27, 1908. There are very few deeds made under this provision of law, however, as there are very few patents whose date extended back five years before the acts repealing said law. Aside from this provision there was no provision either in the Cherokee or Seminole Nations for the alienation of lands prior to the act of congress of April 21, 1904, above quoted. The following general principles applying to each of the Five Civilized Tribes is conclusive proof as to age of allottee, while the tribal roll is conclusive proof as to the per cent of blood. Land of an allottee is not liable for any claim or lien contracted prior to the removal of restrictions, and is only taxable after the re- moval of restrictions. Oklahoma statutes removing the disability of a minor to make con- tracts does not affect Indian minors in the transfer of Indian lands. 58 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK Chapter 49, Mansfield's digest of the statutes of Arkansas (govern- ing as to descent and distribution) was made to apply to the re- spective tribes after the following dates: Choctaw and Chickasaw, September 25, 1902. Creek, July 1, 1902. Seminole, October 7, 1902. Cherokee, August 7, 1902. All patents must be approved by the Secretary of the Interior. It has been held, in the case of Shulthis vs. McDougal, 95 C. C. A., page 615, that the Indians of these tribes held their lands as tenants in com- mon; that their right to participation came as an estate of inheritance from their tribal ancestors who, as above set out, received a deed to this land from the United States government at the time they oc- cupied same. There is, therefore, no reason in equity why the Secretary of the Interior should approve these deeds and the provision that he should so do was wholly gratuitous on the part of congress and partakes of the nature of "malicious mischief." In closing, I cannot forbear the remark that, with the exception of the outrage that was perpetrated on the Indians of the Five Civi- lized Tribes, in forcing them to share their lands with the negro slaves as a penalty for having espoused the cause of the once glor- ious and ever immortal Southern Confederacy — with this exception, the greatest curse that has fallen to the Indians since they were rob- bed of the main bulk of their estate east of the Mississippi, is the annoying, long distance, restrictive supervision of the federal govern- ment over the little that is left to them. The courts have held that the United States stands in loco par- entis to the Indians. It is a significant fact, whatever right of guard- ianship the government has, existed at a time when the Indian was a naked and untutored savage, and so greatly needed the guidance of the paternal hand of the "Great White Father." But that hand was then lifted to smite him, and, now that the restraining hand is no longer needed, the Indian is surfeited by unsolicited solicitude and in the language of Shakespeare 'he dies of much cherishing.' The Indians of Oklahoma are amply able to taKe care of them- selves, and if the restrictions were lifted from all their lands, the in- flux of home builders would double the price of land in the east side of the state. There are thousands of acres of Indian land clearly alienable, but the lack of confidence in titles that exists in the minds of non-resi- dent investors, through their failure to discriminate between good and bad Indian titles, keeps the market price down, and allows the "graft- ers" to secure the land at a nominal price. Bars make a prison though they be bars of gold; and the bonds that bind a man whose soul cries out for liberty become shackles of servitude, whether they be the hand of a marshal or the annoying supervision of a misguided federal government. The spirit of liberty was not born in the breasts of the Revolu- tionary patriots — it was indigenous to the soil; and the wild out-cry for 'Liberty or Death' was equally well expressed by the twang of every bow-string that answered the crack of the invader's rifle; and the same spirit burns today in the breast of every proud Indian citi- zen of Oklahoma and will smoulder there until the restrictions are re- moved.

Barnes was territorial governor, the legisla- ture established a game and fish department and provided for its maintenance from funds derived from fines assessed against those guilty of violating the game laws. This failed to provide adequate funds for the successful enforcement of the game law and the conduct of the ofiice. The 1909 legislature passed a game law, known as the Keys bill, providing for the issuing of hunting licenses for resident, non- resident and alien hunters. The money derived from the sale of these licenses was to be placed in the game protection fund for the support of the department. This law, with a few minor amendments passed since, is now in force. Since statehood three men have held the position of game and fish warden: J. S. Askew of Chickasha, appointed by Governor C. N. Haskell, who served until January 21, 1911; Lon M. Frame of Ardmore, who occupied the position for about sixty days and resigned to become chairman of the state board of public affairs; and John B, Doolin of Alva. The work done by the department in the past two years is shown by the following report: Resident hunting licenses issued from June 9, 1909, to June 1, 1911, 125,000 at $1.00 each, $125,000; non-resident hunting licenses issued June 9, 1909, to June 1, 1911, 415 at $15.00 each, $6,225.00; alien hunting licenses issued June 9, 1909, to June 11, 1911, 4 at $25.00 each, $100.00; number of arrests and convictions for violating state game laws, 450, amount collected from fines assessed, $2,320.00; total amount of money collected and deposited with the State Treasurer from June 9, 1909, to June 1, 1911, $133,645.00; amount of money ex- pended for conduct of state game and fish warden's department, including money expended for propagating purposes from June 9, 1909, to June 1, 1911, $30,908.00; number of live pheasants distributed throughout the state from June 1, 1910, to June 1, 1911, 2,500; num- ber of pheasant eggs distributed throughout the state from June 1, 1910, to June 1, 1911, 60,000; number of live pheasants now in the state, 40,000; number of fish distributed throughout the state, black bass and croppie, 30,000. Warden John B. Doolin has reorganized and systematized the state game and fish warden's department since his incumbency. He has districted the state into twelve districts, containing from six to ten counties in each district. Each district deputy warden recom- mends the appointment of a sufficient number of assistant game and fish wardens to properly police the state and enforce the law in the territory assigned them.

The National Guard of Oklahoma consists of one regiment of infantry, one detachment of engineers, signal corps, and sanitary troops, which are attached to the first infantry. The total numerical strength of the organization is 1,012 commissioned and enlisted men, 60 officers and 952 enlisted men. The Governor of the state is commander-in-chief of the militia, and as such has supreme command of the military forces of the state while in the service of the state, or until they are ordered and accepted into service of the United Stats. The adjutant general is in control of the military department of the state and is subordinate only to the governor in matters pertaining to the department. The militia of the state is divided into two classes, the active and reserve militia. The active militia consists of the organized and uni- formed military forces of the state, which is known as the Oklahoma National Guard. The reserve militia consists of all those liable to service in the militia, or all able bodied men between the ages of 18 and 45 years who are or who have declared their intention of be- coming citizens and not serving in a National Guard of a State. Under provisions of the state law, there is an annual muster and' camp of instruction of the Oklahoma National Guard at Chandler, Okla., where the state rifle range is located, or such other place as may be ordered by the Governor or Adjutant General.

Educational Institutions EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS 167 UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA (Norman, Okla.) The State University was founded by an act of the legislature of the Territory of Oklahoma, entitled "An Act to Locate and Establish the University of Oklahoma." The act provided that when Ten Thou- sand Dollars and forty acres of land should be given to the Territory of Oklahoma by the City of Norman, the school should be located at that place. These requirements were met and the university was established in 1892. The university is a part of the public educational system of the state and the governing board of the institution is the State Board of Education, consisting of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and six members, appointed by the governor. In the spring of 1893, work was begun on the first building. The institution was organized in the following summer, and in September opened its doors. Colleges and schools have developed in the follow- ing order: The College of Arts and Sciences, 1893, four-year plan; the School of Pharmacy, two-year plan, 1893, four-year plan, 1908; graduate work, 1899, the graduate school being organized separately in 1909; the School of Medicine, first two years' work, 1900, third and fourth years, 1910; the School of Fine Arts, 1903; the School of Applied Science and the School of Mines, 1904, reorganized as the College of Engineering, 1909; the summer session, 1908; the School of Law, 1909; and the School of Teaching, 1909.

F. D. STATE MEDICAL SCHOOL. Norman and Oklahoma City, Okla. The State Medical School was originally made a part of the State University at Norman. The last two years of the course was given at Oklahoma City, the division line being drawn in a general manner after the idea that the clinical work be given at the latter place, in order that patients might be obtained for demonstration. Arrange- ment was made that these years of the course of study should be fol- lowed at Epworth University, with the preliminary two at Norman. This arrangement continued until the fall of 1911, when provision was made for the last two years of study to be followed at Rolater's Hos- EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS 171 pital on p:ast Fourth Street, Oklahoma City. A full corps of instruc- tors and lecturers have been employed and the buildings of the hos- pital enlarged, in order that the work may be provided for properly. Faculty of State Medical School.

The Oklahoma University Preparatory School was founded and located at Tonkawa by the following enactment of the Territorial Legislature of 1901: "There is hereby created and established a University Prepara- tory School for the Territory of Oklahoma, which shall be located within one mile from the corporate. limits of the town of Tonkawa, in Kay County, in the Territory of Oklahoma, to be known as the Univer- sity Preparatory School." Complying with the conditions of the Act creating the school, the town of Tonkawa donated tw^enty acres of land adjoining the town to the east. Upon this site the first Board of Regents constructed a sub- stantial four-story building, 54x96 feet, of limestone and pressed brick, which cost $23,000.00 The Legislature of 1905 gave the school an appropriation of $60,- 000.00 for additional buildings. The heating plant and south hall were begun in September, 1906, and were finished about one year later. The Enabling Act gave to the school 150,000 acres of lands in western Oklahoma. A special Act of Congress, approved June, 1911, donated the school section thirty-three, adjacent to the town of Tonkawa, for building pur- poses. The Legislature ratified this donation and loaned the school enough money to pay for the improvements on the land. In the fall of 1909 this land, with the exception of forty acres which was retained for additional campus, was sold at public auction, the loan returned to the State, and plans perfected for the erection of two new buildings from the proceeds. These buildings, a boys' gymnasium, costing $18,- 00 and a class room building, costing $44,000, have been completed. The gymnasium has been in use during the last year and the class room building will be ready for occupancy this fall. Support. Legislative appropriation.

Under the terms of this Act, thirty thousand dollars was appropriated for a main building and thirty-two thousand dollars for the years 1909-1910, and 1910-1911 for maintenance, conditioned upon the presentation of a site by the City of Claremore of not less than thirty-five acres of land. Immediately upon the acceptance of the site by the Board of Regents, the city of Claremore offered its spacious and commodious High School building for the use of teachers and students until the State building was completed. The extraordinary session of the Legis- lature of 1910 appropriated an additional sum of thirty-eight thousand dollars for building and equipment. Twenty thousand dollars of this sum has been used in enlarging the building and the remainder di- vided into two portions — eleven thousand five hundred dollars for the heating plant and six thousand five hundred for equipment. 174 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK Inventory and Property Record.

The State Agricultural and Mechanical College is a State and Federal institution of higher learning, offering industrial, scientific and liberal education to white persons fourteen years of age or over. It also conducts extensive investigations and carries forward research work to establish new scientific truths of value to the people of Oklahoma. The college was organized in 1891 and located at Stillwater, Payn© County, and after twenty years of sturdy effort, now consists of sixty- one professors and instructors, 1,848 students attending last year, eleven large brick and stone buildings, with equipment valued at $175,000, and 1,000 acres of land. Tuition is free in all courses and departments. The college is supported by the federal, government and by the state of Oklahoma as a part of the free school system. It owes its origin to a bill of- fered by Unite! States Senator Morrill, of Vermont, in 1862, which provided funds to' one such institution of learning in each state of the union, and set aside certain public lands from which endowments have come to each of these state and federal colleges. Therefore, these institutions are known as "The Land Grant Colleg?s." The Na- tional Grange gave the "Morrill Bill'' ccdial support and was largely instrumental in securing its final passage. This Act of Congress, approved July 2, 1862, gave to each state which accepted its provisions, 30,000 acres of government land for each representative in Congress, the proceeds to be applied to the en- dowment and maintenance of colleges. "Where the leading object shall be, without excluding the other scientific and classic studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and mechanic arts * * * in order to promote the liberal and practical educa- tion of the industrial classes in the various pursuits and professions of life." Again, in 1887, Congress provided for an agricultural experiment station in connection with each of the land grant colleges. The first legislature of the Territory of Oklahoma adopted a res- olution assenting to and accepting the provisions of Congress and established the Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College, De- cember 25, 1890. Congress, also, provided 250.000 acres of land as a permanent endowment for the college in the Enabling Act, granting statehood to Oklahoma. 176 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK The Oklahoma constitution provides that the State Board of Ag- riculture shall be the Board of Regents of the A. & M. College. The college carries on many lines of work not commonly known as school work, though truly educational in all respects. The manage- ment assists in the educational work in behalf of grown people who may lack spare time to attend college, by sending oat point ted and practical literature, by supplying well informed lecturers to popular gatherings and to meetings of farmers' and teachers' institutes or other conventions, under conditions favorable to profitable presenta- tion and discussion of the subjects. The acts of Congress and the state legislature make certain forms of this college extension work obligatory. Land and Buildings. The campus, farm, and experiment grounds embrace a tract of 1,000 acres. The present buildings were erected by the state at a cost of over $341,000, and they are euipped with the latest and best appliances and apparatus, representing an outlay by the state and federal governments of approximately $175,000. All buildings are steam heated, electric lighted, and have sewer connections. The do- mestic Science Hall and girls' dormitory cost $62,000. This new build- ing is the most complete, modern and convenient structure on the college grounds. Twenty-five thousand dollars has been devoted to the erection of a dormitory hall, to be used as a home for young men. The college has a library of 14,120 volumes, besides some 30,000 unbound publications. All of the desirable current publications are received. Two specially fitted rooms of large dimensions are de- voted to library use. Appropriations. H. B. No. 355, for completion of buildings $34,676.49 S. B.

Oklahoma. The Central Normal School was located at Edmond by the Ter- ritorial Legislature of 1890, providing for the instruction of both men and women in the art of teaching, and in all branches of learning which pertain to a good common school education, also to give instruc- tion in the theory and practice of teaching. For the purpose of lo- cating the school, forty acres was furnished, lying within one mile of the city of Edmond. Ten. acres of the land were reserved as a site for the buildings, the remainder being platted into lots and blocks for sale, from which funds were received to aid the support of the in- stitution, according to the provisions of the act passed. The property of the State at the institution now consists of thir- teen acres of land, two three-story buildings and a heating plant, with furniture and equipment. The Territory of Oklahoma appropriated approximately $55,000.00 for buildings, the County of Oklahoma gave $5,000 in bonds, and the city of Edmond gave $2,000 in bonds. Twenty- seven of the original forty acres were platted and sold, the money derived from the sales being used in the construction of the North building. Estimated Value of Property. Thirteen acres of land $50,000.00 South building 37,500.00 North building. 30,000.00 Heating plant 10,000.00 Furniture and equipment 23,000.00 Total $151,000.00 The first Normal building, constructed of brick, was completed in 1893; the wings, built of stone, were erected in 1894 and 1895. In order to raise the money for this building, the Board of Regents sold the platted lots and the legislature appropriated $15,000. The North building thus constructed, contains sixteen class rooms, a large room for the manual training department, antl a large gymnasium. To relieve the crowded condition and to increase the facilities for instruction, the legislature in 1903 made an appropriation of $40,000 for the erection of an additional building. The structure is of pressed brick and stone. It has an assembly room with a seating capacity of 800 persons, two laboratories, reception hall, president's office, reading room, and thirteen recitation rooms. The institution is equipped with four laboratories— chemical, phy- sical, agricultural and biological. A manual training school with a kindergarten department has been established.

On the last day of the regular session of the Second Legislature a bill was passed, creating the sixth State Normal School and locating it at Ada, the county seat of Pontatoc County. The bill carried an appropriation of $100,000 for the erection of a building. The general appropriation bill had already been passed and no provision was made for maintenance and equipment. The citizens of Ada were enxious to have the school start on an equal footing with other new normals, and they proposed to the Board of Regents to advance the money necessary for the conduct of the school until the legislature should meet and make an appropriation. The board then elected a president and faculty, and the first session of the school opened September 20, 1909, in the Ada High School building, which had just been completed. The first year's work was fraught with the usual difficulties incident to perfecting the organization and woi'king with inadequate equipment. But in spite of these difficulties, 5lt) pupils were enrolled representing twenty-one counties of Oklahoma and eight different states. At the close of the opening term, six pupils completed the course of study and were granted diplomas. The contract for the new building was let in October, 1909, and was completed in July, 1910. The campus comprises twenty acres, donated by the citizens of Ada. The building is a magnificent struc- ture of pressed brick and reinforced concrete construction, including thirty-nine recitation rooms, offices and other apartments, with a large library, and an assembly hall with a seating capacity of 2.000 persons. The special session of the legislature, which was convened in 1910, made an appropriation for maintenance and equipment. The bill carried $15,000 for equipment and furniture. This amount 'has been expended in equipping the departments of domestic science, manual training, physics, chemistry, biology and agriculture. The object of the school, as instituted by law, is to prepare teach- ers for service in the schools of the state. The Third Legislature appropriated .$60,000 for the conduct of the school for the next two years. This is derived in part from the gen- eral fund and in part from revenue derived from rentals. The State Board of Education announced the following faculty for the school year beginning July 1, 1911: Faculty and Employes. Name. Position. Salary. Chas. W. Briles President .$2,700 Madison L.

The Northeastern State Normal was established at Tahlequah by an act of the State Legislature in March, 1909. The bill establishing the school carried an appropriation of $45,000 for the purchase of the Cherokee National Female Seminary building and forty acres of land belonging thereto. There was also appropriated at the same time the sum of $70,000 for maintenance the first two years. The Board of Regents met at Guthrie April 7, 1909, and elected the first faculty. The building is a three-story brick and stone structure, steam heated, and supplied with pure spring water. The building is the larg- est single school structure in the State and was erected in 1889, by the Cherokee Nation, at a cost of $100,000. Tahlequah is located thirty-five miles east of Muskogee and the same distance from the eastern line of the State. It is seventy-five miles south of the Kansas line, is the county seat of Cherokee County, and the capital of the old Cherokee Nation. Its location makes it an ideal college town. The natural scenery is unexcelled and the eleva- tion insures excellent drainage and a pleasant and healthful climate. Number of Students, Classified as to Rank.

The Northwestern State Normal School was established by an act of the Territorial Legislature in 1897, and was located at Alva. When the school was established at Alva the town was very small, but it has grown repidly, until it has a population of over 6,000. An act of the first legislature of the State of Oklahoma has con- firmed the Northwestern Normal School as one of the permanent state educational institutions. The school has been enlarged by the ad dition of many important departments of instruction, and is prepared to offer its students enlarged opportunities for education such as will enable its graduates to measure up to the modern requirements of intensive, as well as extensive scholarship. The central heating plant, erected at a cost of $20,000, is designed to furnish heat to the buildings now in use or to such as may here- after be constructed. The boilers and engines are of ample capacity, and the design of the buildings includes room for the electric plant soon to be installed. The school plant at present consists of three buildings situated upon a beautiful tract of forty acres on the south side of town. The first normal building was erected in 1898, at a cost of more than $100,000 and is easily the handsomest school edifice in the south- west. This building is occupied by the departments of English, mathematics, history, geography, oratory, music, fine arts, domestic science and art, agriculture and commercial department, and the administrative offices of the president and registrar. An auditorium with a seating capacity of 800 is the most conspicuous feature of the interior of the building. The science hall is a commodious building devoted to the depart- ments of biology, physical science, manual training, pedagogy and training school, and the library. It is fitted with ample equipment in laboratories for chemistry, physics, zoology, and botany, with the museum of natural history, and with shops of manual training. Officers and Faculty. Name.

Weatherford, the home of the Southwestern Normal School, is well located geographically for the students of western and south- western Oklahoma. The school has two buildings adequate for pres- ent needs. In 1903 the administration hall was built at the cost of $37,500. It has two full stories besides a basement and chapel, with a steating capacity of 500. With the exception of the president's suite of offices, this building is used as a recitation hall. East of the administration building is science hall, completed in 1910, at a cost of $100,000. The training school and the auditorium, seating 1,750 persons, are in this hall. Five thousand volumes are at the service of the student body in the library.

A quarter mile oval running track, a baseball diamond, a football gridiron, tennis courts, basketball space, are among the conveniences which help the open air work of the student. Experienced coaches direct and supervise the athletic work. As the school is liberal in education aside from that actually sought in books, all organizations which tend to develop the spiritual life are supported. A Young Men's Christian Association was organ- ized seven years ago, the Young Women's Christian Association one year later. Faculty. Name. Address Position. Salary. U. J.

The origin of the institution, which has come to be known as the Oklahoma School for the Blind, is to be associated with the name of Miss Lura A. Rowland, now Mrs. Lura A. Lowrey. Mrs. Lowrey, a graduate of the Arkansas School for the Blind, undertook in 1897, the establishment of a school for the blind in the Indian Territory. The school was organized, having a board of directors, and was known as the International School for the Blind. Mrs. Lowrey traveled extensively in the Territory, and by various means, secured funds with which to equip a building for formal open- ing. The school was formally opened at Fort Gibson, in what was known as the Barracks building, with an enrollment of ten pupils, January 3. 1898. For approximately ten years the school was con- ducted under the direct supervision of Mrs. Lowery. There were in all, eleven terms, comprising each from six weeks to nine months duration. The school, being a private institution, was supported by private and puolic subscription. The Cherokee and Choctaw Nations appropriated for several years from thhree to six hundred dollars per annum for the maintenance of the school. Mrs. Lowery made repeat- ed etiorts to secure an appropriation from Congress — all of which were unsuccessful. Mrs. Lowery, having resigned, was succeeded by C. E. Harmon, July 1, 1907. He moved the school, December 14, from Fort Gibson to Wagoner, at which place it remained until July, 1908, when it was re- located at Fort Gibsun. The First Legislature of the State of Oklahoma appropriated $5,000, the act being approved May 29, 1908, for the maintenance of "The Lura A. Lowery School for the Blind," and provided in the same act, that the school should be under the control of the State Board of Education. In July, 1908, George W. Bruce was elected, by the board, president of the school. Under the new management, the school was opened October 15, 1908, in two residence buildings, with an enroll- ment of thirty-three pupils. Bruce served as president of the school until June 30, 1911. During his three years' presidency, the maximum enrollment was forty-two. The State Board of Education, on May 25, 1911, elected as superintendent of the Oklahoma School for the Blind, which name was given to the institution, Oscar W. Stewart, who be- gan his duties July 1, 1911. The Legislature of 1909 and 1911 each appropriated money for the maintenance of the school for the blind, but declined to perma- nently locate it. The school is being conducted in buildings formerly occupied by officers when a United States fort was maintained at Fort Gibson. Superintendent Stewart is a graduate of the Texas School for the Blind, and has been for several years unofficially active in behalf of EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS 199 the welfare of this school. Upon taking charge, he immediately ar- ranged for other buildings and now there is capacity for sixty pupils. The State Board of Education prescribed the course of study in the literary department to be that of the common and high schools of the State, and plans are under way whereby the school will be technically articulated with the. State University. Thorough courses in music, piano tuning and repairing, weaving, sewing and typewrit- ing, are given in this school. The eligibility of pupils has been stated as follow^s: "All persons over six and under twenty-one years of age, who are of such mental and physical ability as to enable them to do systematic study, whose vision is so impaired as to make it impossible for them to attend the schools for the sighted, are proper persons to be received in the school for the blind."

This institution was established at Langston by an act of the Territorial Legislature in 1897, for the purpose of giving the negroes of Oklahoma, normal collegiate, industrial and agricultural training. Forty acres of land for building and agricultural purposes were do- nated by the people of Langston and its immediate vicinity. The same legislature which established the school, appropriated the sum of $5,000 for its benefit, but this amount proved inadequate for the erection of a suitable building, the employment of teachers and the purchase of necessary aquipment. At this time, the land lease money was so divided among the territorial institutions as to make it pos- sible for the school to continue its work without serious embarass- ment until an appropriation could be made for its support by the next legislature. The legislature which met in 1899, made an appropriation of $10,- 000 for building purposes, provided a tax levy on one-tenth of a mill, set apart one-fifth of the land lease money and one-tenth of the amount which was given the Territory annually by the Federal Government, in compliance with the Morrill Act, and made an appropriation of $15,000 from the accrued Morrill fund for the maintenance and equip- ment of the university. Owing to the fact that this last appropriation was not approved by the Secretary of the Interior because he was of the opinion that it was made in violation of law, the regents, at the suggestion of Governor Barnes, adopted a resolution asking the delegate in Congress to introduce a bill providing for the ratification of that part of the act of the ligislature which contained the appropriation. The bill passed. Two new buildings were then erected — a dormitory for young women and a mechanic arts building, and the amount of acreage was increased to one hundred and sixty acres. The First Legislature of the State of Oklahoma appropriated a fraction over $40,000 for the maintenance of the university for the year 1908-1909, which amount, added to the income from the rental of section thirteen and from the Morrill fund, raised the total annual income to $48,000. To relieve the crowded condition, due to the destruction by fire of the main building in November, 1907, and to the increased attend- ance, the same legislature, also, appropriated $100,000 for the erec- tion of a new main building and for additional improvements. The enrollment totals 673 students. The Second Legislature appropriated $85,000 for maintenance and improvements, and the Third. $82,400. EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS 201 Buildings.

Charitable Institutions CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS 215 OKLAHOMA HOSPITAL FOR THE INSANE Supply, Oklahoma. The territorial legislature in 1905 accepted an offer made by Congress to grant to the territory the use of Fort Supply Military Reservation and the buildings thereon for the purpose of an insane asylum. The site of the institution is one of considerable interest from an historical viewpoint. It is located in Woodward County. Many of the expeditions of the United States regular army against the marauding bands of the socalled wild plains Indians used Fort Supply as their base of supply. General Custer, the noted Indian fighter, who later met death at the battle of the Little Big Horn, at one time was stationed for a short period on the reservation. The house used by him as his home is now the residence of Dr. E. G. New- ell, superintendent of the institution. The management and control of the hospital is vested in the Board of Trustees, composed of the governor, who shall be ex-officio chairman, and two other persons of different political affiliations, ap- pointed by the governor.

The Oklahoma hospital for insane at Norman, Oklahoma, is lo- cated on a tract of land just east and immediately adjoining the City of Norman. The grounds are high and dry and command an excel- lent view of the -surrounding country. The main building is of brick and stone, three stories and a basement. The front of the ground floor is used for offices, recep- tion rooms, prescription department, and laboratory; the basement for store room. The upper stories are used as wards for the care of the patients. m Besides the main building there are three two-story and seven one-story buildings, which are" also used for wards. All of these are well lighted and ventilated. On the grounds there are two buildings for the officers and many others for commissary, work shops, stor- age roooms, etc., covering about thirty acres of ground. The rest of the vacant land is used for garden, parade grounds, etc. During 1910 a large two-story building was added, which accom- modates about eighty patients. This building is used exclusively for the reception of new patients. Appropriations. H. B. No. 557 — Support and maintenance $300,000.00 S. B. No. 209— Deficiency 23,000.00 (Note) — This hospital is a private institution but appropriations are made by the legislature for the care of state patients who are con- fined there, it thus becoming a semi-state institution, ^he Territory cf Oklahoma made a contract with the company operating the institu- tion in May, 1901, for keeping the insane patients of the state until the state institution for the insane located at Fort Supply should be constructed. The original contract was for a term of four years but the legislature of 1903 extended the time of the contract until the state institution should be completed and a railroad built to Fort Supply. A gradual transfer of the patients is being made. 220 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK OKLAHOMA INSTITUTION FOR FEEBLE MINDED Enid, Oklahoma. By an act of the 1909 legislature, section 33, township 23 north of range 6, west of the Indian Meridian of Garfield county was desig- nated as the site for the Oklahoma Institution for Feeble Minded. The commissioner of the land office was authorized to empower the tract of land to the state, and the City of Enid agreed to settle the claims of the school land leasees who were in possession of the tract. The institution is under the general charge and control of a Board of Managers, consisting of five persons, of which the governor is the ex-officio chairman. The four remaining members of the board are appointed by the governor by and with the advice and consent of the senate, and the tenure of office is two years. The purpose of the institution is to care for the feeble minded be- tween the ages of sixteen and forty-five years. It is divided into two departments, a training school and an asylum department.

Penal and Corrective Institutions Sig. 17 PENAL INSTITUTIONS 227 STATE PENITENTIARY McAlester, Oklahoma. In January, 1909, before the penitentiary buildings were completed six hundred and forty-three men were brought to McAlester from the Kansas State penitentiary, and were 1 eld in a temporary wooden cell house, without cells or protection of any kind of walls except a guard line of armed men. The prisoners were fed and housed at a great hazard. Time and again mutiny started and it required men of strong courage to stay among them and keep down attempts of concerted breaks. It is now looked upon as a miracle that the desperate crimi- nals were held by only a few men without a single escape. It was only by appealing to the better senses of the men and keeping them in good humor that a wholesale delivery was prevented. As soon as arrangements could be made, a temporary wire fence was thrown around the buildings and charged with electricity. This fence was fourteen feet high, of barbed wire four inches apart. Pris- oners experimented with It until they found that to touch it meant death and after that time it became a secure wall. Temporary cells and plumbing followed and attention was then turned to building the new penitentiary. As soon as plans could be completed and approved, the work of construction was begun in June, 1909. The prison walls enclose a fraction less than ten acres of ground. It is of concrete piers and slab3 eighteen feet above the grade line on the inside of the grounds, and twenty-four feet on the outside, and goes eight feet below the surface. The State Board of Public Affairs advertised for bids in October, lyiU, for the administration building and the west cell wing. The admiii- istration building has a frontage of eighty feet, a depth of sixty-eight feet, and is two stories high with a basement. It is, also, built of concrete and ceiled throughout with tool proof grating. The cell wing is 240 by 58 feet, four stories high and mostly of steel. The outside window gratings are twenty-eight feet high and of tool proof steel. The windows are operated by a patent window opening device. Between the guards and prisoners' corridors, tool proof grating is used. There are four tiers of cells on each side, each tier containing forty cells or three hundred and twenty in all. The cells are of Bessemer steel three-eighths of an inch in thickness with tool proof grating doors operated by a Pauly automatic device. The cell floor carries four inches of concrete and finish above the steel plate. Each cell is equipped with two bunks, toilet, lavatory and is lighted by electricity. The contract for these two buildings was awarded for a contract price of $267,000.00. In March, 1911, the prisoners which were held at the old Federal jail in McAlester were moved to the new penitentiary. The east cell wing is now under way of construction. The state is doing this work independent of contract. This cell wing is to be an exact duplicate of the west cell wing except the dungeons and work cells are to be in the basement. 228 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK The central rotunda is to be octagonal, sixty-eight feet in depth. All corridors lead to the central rotunda where all entrances will be operated by an automatic locking device from a central tower. From this central station all doors to the cell houses, administration build- ing, dining hall, chapel and school rooms as well as those leading to the grounds will be handled by this locking device. And all the prisoners passing in and out will be registered. A temporary dining hall has been erected which seats the 1,063 prisoners now at the penitentiary. The laundry is in the rear of the temporary dining hall. A model prison hospital has also been planned and a power and storage plant where ice and electricity for the light and power service of the institution will be manufactured. It is now in course of construction. A woman's building, under separate wall, is also in course of construction. Six work shops also will be built inside of the north wall, each large enough to accommodate about one hundred men at work. A force of nearly one hundred convicts were put to worK on the construction of roads around and through the farm and nearly fourteen miles of first class wagon road has been built. Pittsburg county furnished two bridges, and the roads are the best and most permanent in the state. Tte farm is to be the chief support of the institution. Under the Constitution, convict labor is limited practically to farm and road work. In order to make the institution self sustaining, many departments have been planned for the farm. It is gradually being stocked with poultry and livestock. Several hundred head of fine hogs are raised each year, and all the meat for the institution in course of time will be produced upon this farm. In order to properly drain and shape up the farm, it was found necessary to straighten creeks, and drains, and in places to construct entirely new ones. About two miles of this work was done, some of it very heavy, creeks being walled to a depth of ten or twelve feet, and old channels refilled. In order to insure a permanent supply of water, an artificial lake has been constructed by building a dam between two hills. This lake will drain a water shed of 600 acres, and when filled will cover about ten acres to a maximum depth of eighteen feet. It is proposed to establish a water system which will serve to irrigate a portion of the penitentiary farm, as well as furnish water for domestic purposes. The first year the farm was put in cultivation proved very suc- cessful, although the season was a bad one, and a large amount of vegetables and forage was raised. A large force of prisoners are still engaged in improving the farm, and also in excavating and grad- ing around the penitentiary property. There have been five wagon bridges constructed along the road surrounding the farm, and several more are contemplated. This work was done entirely with prison labor. From the beginning of the penitentiary, a prison shoe shop has been operated, wherein all the shoes used by inmates of the institution are manufactured. A tailor shop is also in operation in which is manufactured all of the underwear, shirts, overalls, caps, and a large portion of the prison clothing. It is proposed to enlarge this department in order that all of the clothing used by the inmates may be made by them. A large amount of sugar cane was raised during the past year, and a cane mill was installed. This mill enabled the officers to make sufficient molasses to supply the needs of the prison. PENAL INSTITUTIONS 229 Eighl hundred and fifty thousand dollars has been appropriated for penitentiary building purposes, of which about $650,000 has been expended in the erection of said buildings and improvements up to the present time, and $20,000 which was appropriated for the pur- chase of. land, has also been expended. It is estimated that the balance in the above mentioned appropria- tion will complete the rotunda, east cell wing, power plant, mess hall, hospital, woman's building' and stables, all of which are now in course of construction. Owing to the fact that all of the common labor used in the con- struction of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary was done by convicts, the estimated value of the buildings are far in excess of their actual cost. An estimated value of the land, buildings which have been erected and are now in course of erection, and improvements, follow^: Administration building $ 250,000.00 West cell wing 200,000.00 Rotunda and east cell wing (to date) 150,000.00 Wall 125,000.00 Woman's building (to date) 5,000.00 Estimated value of grading and excavating 50,000.00 Residences and temporary buildings 30,000.00 Machinery, wagons, mules, etc 50,000.00 Cells, locks and building material on hand 50,000.00 Sewers 38,000.00 Value of roads and bridges around and through the peni- tentiary property 20,000.00 Heating plant 10,000.00 Saw mill and planing mill 5,000.00 *1,566.4 acres of land at $40.00 per acre 62,656.00 * 20 acres of land at $75.00 per acre 1,500.00 * 100 acres of land at $75.00 per acre 7,500.00 Steam cooking outfit 4000,00 Total $1,058,656.00 ♦Donated by City.

An act creating and locating the Oklahoma State Reformatory was passed by the Second State Legislature in 1908, and an appropria- tion of $50,000 made for buildings and equipment. Temporary build- ings were erected and the first installment of prisoners were received by transfer from the McAlester penitentiary in April, 1910. The Third Legislature made an appropriation of $325,000 for per- manent buildings which are now under construction. First term prisoners, sixteen to twenty-five years of age inclusive, and not to exceed five-year sentences, are eligible to admission to this institution either by direct commitment of the courts or by order of the Board of Prison Control. The institution is now governed by the same laws that apply to the State Penitentiary, but as soon as suitable buildings and facilities are provided the legislature will be asked to enact special measures that will enable the institution to be conducted as a modern reform- atory. The number of inmates (June 30, 1911) was 361. There are about 150 more at the State Penitentiary eligible for admission who cannot be transferred on account of insufficient quarters. Sam M. Flournoy of Elk City, Okla., was appointed warden at the creation of the institution. He was succeeded in September, 1910, by Clyde A. Reed of Mountain View, the present warden.

Historical HISTORICAL 241 OKLAHOMA HISTORICAL SOCIETY The Oklahoma Historical Society was organized at a meeting of the Territorial Press Association in Kingfisher, May 27, 1893, and was inaugurated as an adjunct to that body under the title, "Historical Society of the Oklahoma Press Association." W. P. iCampbell, at that time connected with the register of deeds office at Kingfisher, undertook the prosecution of the work. J. B. Camp- bell, a brother, now a member of the State legislature, was register. He offered room in the register's office for storage. Effort was made to collect and preserve copies of every publication in the commonwealth, including the Indian Territory so that a file could always be found for future generations and incidentally to collect and preserve all other matters of a historic, relic or curious interest. During the legislature of 1895, a similar, society was organized by the faculty and students of the University at Norman. Custodian Campbell co-operated with the new organization, an appropriation was secured, and the collection was taken to Norman where it remained until completion of the Carnegie building at Oklahoma City, which institution sought and obtained through a special act removal of headquarters to the present location in the Carnegie building. It was made the trustee of the State in caring for valuable docu- ments by the Territorial Legislature of 1895, which provided in the session laws of that year that it should be the duty of the- society to collect books, maps and other papers and materials illustrative of the history of Oklahoma in particular and the west generally; to procure from the early settlers narratives of events relative to the early settlement of Oklahoma and to the early explorations. Indian occupancy and overland travel in the State and the west; and to collect documents of a varied nature such as to facilitate the investigation of historical, scientific, social, educational and literary subjects. The newspaper feature has always been zealously maintained, bo that there are now about six thousand bound volumes of these and kindred publications, and practically every publication, small and great, daily, weekly, monthly, etc., may be found on file as issued. Other features, however, have not been neglected, there being about twenty-five thousand titles covering every range of historic interest, the entire collection aggregating something like fourteen tons in weight. On removal of the collection to Norman, Mr. Campbell was re- tired, and W. T. Little became custodian, retaining the place until it was brought to Oklahoma City, January 1, 1901. Sidney Clarke was given charge and was succeeded at the end of the year by Mrs. Marion Rock. June 1, 1904, Mr. Campbell was induced to again take charge of the work, and has remained with it since that date. Miss Edith Rose Kneen has been assistant for the last four years. The society is controlled by a board chosen at annual meetings of the members and is maintained by membership fees and State appro- priations. Slg. 18 242 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK Official Directory.

Under the first call for volunteers two troops of cavalry were authorized, one in each territory. Under the second call Oklahoma was to raise a battalion of four companies which became a part of the First Regiment of Territorial Volunteers the other two battalions being raised in Arizona and New Mexico A number of young men in both Indian Territory and Oklahoma enhsted m the volunteer service from adjoining states The First Regiment of United State Volunteer Cavalry, since become famous as Roosevelt's Rough Riders' had in its consist several Oklahoma volunteers. A part of the regiment saw active service in Cuba, at Las Guasimas, El Caney and San Juan Hill. The Oklahoma troop was commanded by Captain Robert B. Huston of Guthrie. An attorney by profession, he took great interest in military affairs and held the rank of lieutenant colonel in the first mihtia regiment organized in Oklahoma. In the battle of San Juan Hill, he was m command of his battalion after Major Brodie was wounded. After the close of the war with Spain, he was re-com- missioned in the United States Volunteers for service in the Philio- pines where he died in 1900. Captain Allyn K. Capron, who organized and commanded the Indian Territory troop was born in 1870. His father was an officer in the regular army and he chose to follow the same profession. He enlisted in the regular army as a private and won his commission by promotion from the ranks, and was first lieutenant in the First Regular Cavalry, stationed at Fort Reno, at the outbreak of the war He was killed in the battle of San Juan Hill. Captains Huston and Capron were both regarded as fine officers and held the respect of their men. Oklahoma was a young commonwealth when the bugle sounded the call to war, but the pulses of many Oklahoma school boys were quickened by its notes. Among those who heard and answered the call was Roy Cashion of Hennessey, who had been graduated from the public schools of that town only the year before. Though but eighteen years old, he volunteered under the first call, and was enrolled and mustered into the service as a private in' the First Regiment of United States Volunteer Cavalry. With that command he went from the rendezvous at San Antonio, Texas, to Tampa Florida, and thence to the southern coast of Cuba with the army under General Shaffer. Beneath the tropical July sun on the charge up San Juan Hill, young Cashion was stricken with a Mauser bullet from the rifle of a Spanish sharp shooter— the first Oklahoma school boy to give his life for his country on a foreign soil. Buried by his comrades where he fell, the markings of his grave were lost for a time, and his father made a second trip to Cuba before it was found and identified. After the removal and re-interment of his body in the sun-kissed soil of his prairie homeland, the people 244 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK of the community raised a subscription, which was afterwards sup- plemented by a legislative appropriation for the purpose of erecting a monument to his memory. The First Regiment of United States Volunteer Cavalry on the first call received a contingent of eighty men from Oklahoma. The officers commissioned for this troop and the men mustered in were as follows: Robert B. Huston, captainn. Schuyler A. McGinnis, first lieu- tenant. Jacob Scliweizer, second lieuten- ant. Orlando G. Palmer, first sergeant. Gerald A. Webb, sergeant. Ira A. Hill, sergeant. George A. Sands, sergeant. Joseph A. Randolph, sergeant. Charles B. Hunter, sergeant. Calvin Hill, corporal.

HISTORICAL 34S OKLAHOMA INDIANS IN MILITARY SERVICE DURING THE CIVIL WAR In all there were some twenty organizations effected among the Indian tribes of the Indian Territory for service with the Con- federate army. It is probable that the total number of Indians engaged in the war on the Confederate side was between 6,000 and 7,000.

Both officers and men of these organizations were members of the various tribes among which they were respectively recruited, wit'i the exception, however, of Col. Douglas H. Cooper, of the F irst Choctaw and Chickasaw Mounted Rifle Regiment. He was a white man, who had been the United States Indian Agent for the Choctaw and Chickasaw tribes at the outbreak of the war, and was eventually promoted to the rank of Brigadier General. The Indians who were in the service of the Union Army during the war were organized into three regiments, known as the First, Second, and Third Regiments of the Indian Home Guards. They were recruited principally in the Cherokee, Creek and Seminole Nations, though other tribes were represented, and there were a few Indians who enlisted with Kansas regiments. The First Regiment, Indian Home Guards, consisted mainly of members of the Creek Nation, and its aggregate strength was sixty- four officers and 1784 enlisted men. 246 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK The Second Regiment was composed principally of Cherokee and Osage Indians, its total force being sixty-six officers and 1835 enlisted men. The Third Regiment was recruited mostly among the Cherokee and Creek, and its complete enrollment was fifty-two officers and 1437 enlisted men. Possibly two-thirds of the officers of these regiments were white men. There is no record of the tribal military organizations which supported the cause of the Union. The total number of the tribes then residing in the Indian Territory who served in the Union Army probably did not exceed 6,000. The three regiments of the Home Guards, which composed a brigade in the Union Army, participated in twenty-eight battles, besides many lesser skirmishes, and it is probable that the Indians in the Confederate Army took part in a greater number of battles, as some of them were organized and placed in the field much earlier in the war. The total number of Indians who gave their lives in the struggle, including those killed in battle and those who died from wounds and disease, was over 1,000.

Resources Sig. 19 RESOURCES 259 OKLAHOMA AMONG THE SOUTHERN STATES (By Chas. N. Gould, former State Geologist.) You don't have to misrepresent Oklahoma; if you tell half the truth people won't believe you. No equal area that the sun shines upon, during recorded history, has made such rapid material progress as has the state of Oklahoma, during the last decade. Her history reads like a romance. Those of us who have been actively engaged in aiding this development as well as those from other states who have watched tl. e progress of Oklahoma, often stand aghast before the wonderful latent possibilities of the state. Relative Rank. It is not easy to attempt to condense into a single paragraph a statement of the wonderful resources of Oklahoma and their develop- ment. Some idea of conditions may be gained by reference to the government census reports recently issued, where it is shown that during the past ten years, among the sixteen states represented at the Southern Commercial Congress, Oklahoma ranks as follows: First in percentage of increase of population of the state, 110%. First in percentage of increase of population of two chief cities, Oklahoma City having 549'/r, and Muskogee 494%. First in percentage of increase of value of farm crops, 242%. First in percentage of increase of wheat raised, 56%. First in percentage of increase of cotton raised, 176%. First in percentage of increase of railroad mileage, 154%. First in percentage of increase in lumber cut, 9017c. First in percentage of increase in corn raised, 921%. First in percentage of increase in bank deposits, 1033%. First among the southern states in the amount of petroleum pro- duced during the past four years. First in the amount of natural gas in sight. First in the total amount of available fuel. First in the total amount of asphalt. First in the total amount of glass sand. First in the total amount of gypsum. First in the amount of salt. First in the total amount of mineral products. First in the total amount of wl eat raised. And first in the number of acres of fertile soil lying idle. If you exclude Texas, our neighbor state on the South, with an area nearly four times our own, and Missouri, with an area nearly as large, and with nearly 100 years of development, Oklahoma ranks, First in corn. First in oats. First in cattle. 260 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK Excluding Texas, Missouri and Georgia, the Empire state bf the South, Oklahoma, is, First in hogs. First in miles of railroad. And excluding Texas, Missouri and West Virginia, she is. First in assessed valuation. History. Twenty-one years ago the greater part of Oklahoma was bare prairie or unbroken forest. In the eastern part of the state, which was owned and occupied by Indians of the Five Civilized Tribes, there were few small villages, little more than trading posts, built up largely of wooden shacks. Western Oklahoma was then totally unset- tled. In April, 1889, the first land in the Territory of Oklahoma was thrown open to settlement. Cities sprang up as if by magic. An area half as large as that of the State of Maryland was settled in a day. From time to time, various Indian reservations were thrown open to the public and cities sprang up over night. During the past ten years tie land of the Five Civilized Tribes in eastern Oklahoma has iieen allotted and much of it made available for purchase. Farms have been improved, mines and quarries have been opened, factories erected, railroads built and cities have grown, until, today, Oklahoma stands at the forefront of the sisterhood of states. Topography. Oklahoma is larger than any state east of the Mississippi river; the total area being 70,740 square miles. Generally speaking, the state is a level plain, sloping from an elevation of about 5,500 feet above sea level in the northwest corner to less than 400 feet in the southeast corner. Western Oklahoma is a flat or rolling prairie. In southern and eastern Oklahoma, this plain is interrupted by a number of ranges of high hills, dignified by the term mountains. These are known as the Wichita, Arbuckle, Quachita, and Ozark mountains. The eastern half of the state contains forests of pine, oak and hickory. Western Oklahoma contains little timber except along the streams. Rainfall and Soil. Three-fourths of the state has an abundant rainfall, varying from 40 inches in the southeastern corner to 25 inches near the western line. The extreme northwestern part of the state, old "No Man's Land," lies in the semi-arid region of the Plains, the rainfall varying from 10 to 25 inches per annum. Oklahoma is well watered by streams. Ten large rivers cross the state. All the drainage is into the Mississippi through the Arkansas or Red rivers. The chief tributaries to the Arkansas are the Grand, Verdigris, Poteau, South Canadian. North Canadian, Cimarron and Salt Fork. The chief tributaries of the Red are the Kiamichi, Blue, Boggy and Washita. The general course of these streams is from northwest to southeast across the state. In each stream valley there is a broad belt of exceedingly fertile bottom land, averaging from one to three miles in width. The upland soil throughout tl e greater part of the state is very feitile. In western Oklahoma much of the soil is red, which color is due to the large percentage of iron which it contains. Eastern Oklahoma contains several large areas of limestone soil. RESOURCES 261 Agricultural Resources. The happy combination of abundant rainfall, warm climate and fertile soil, all conspire to render Oklahoma one of the most productive of the agricultural states. Practica'ly everyt'. ing that is cultivated between the Canadian line and the Gulf of Mexico, and between the Atlantic and the Rocky mountains can be raised in Oklahoma. The four staples are corn, wheat, cotton and oats. In 1910, Oklahoma led the southern states in the production of wiieat, more than 2.5,000,000 bushels being harvested. She ranks second in the production of oats, with 23,000.000 bushels; fourth in the production of corn with 92,000,000 bushels; and fifth in the production of cotton with yBii.uuu oaies. lu addition to these crops, Oklahoma ranks first in the production of bropmcorn and among the first in the production of alfalfa. Many of her farmers have become wealthy shipping potatoes to northern mar- kets, two crops a year being produced. Truck and vegetables are grown in all localities. The wild hay crop every year adds hundreds of thousands of dollars to the total wealth of the state. Practically all kinds of fruits grow well. The apples of eastern Oklahoma rival those raised in the famous Ozark country of northern Arkansas and southern Missouri, this section of the state being a part of "the land of the big red apples." Elberta peaches, the finest raised in the Mississippi valley, grow big as pint cups, and are often a drug on the market at fifty cents a bushel. Cherries, plums, pears, grapes and fruits of all kinds grow in the greatest profusion. Pecans, walnuts and other nuts are abundant. It must not be imagined for an instant, however, that Oklahoma has yet come into her own in the matter of agricultural development. The State Board of Agriculture is authority for the statement that at the present time, taking into consideration all known data, only about 24% of the tillable land in the state is yet in cultivation. That is to say, three-fourths of our acreage, which includes much of the finest agricultural land in the United States, is still lying idle. Live Stock. In former years, Oklahoma was the stockman's paradise. Before the opening of the country to settlement, great herds of long-horned, Texas cattle roamed at will over the broad" prairies. The nutritious grasses, indigenous to our soil, and the abundant water supply, made Oklahoma the best cattle country in the world. These conditions have passed. Instead of the half-wild, long-horned cattle, we have well-kept herds of Herefords and Jerseys; instead of the tough and wirey cow pony, the draft horse and the racer; and instead of the wild hog, the Poland China and Berkshire. In 1910, Oklahoma ranked third among the southern states in the number of cattle and fourth in the number of hogs produced. Mineral Wealth, No state in the Union possesses a greater variety or larger amount of undeveloped mineral wealth than does Oklahoma. During the past three years she has led the United States in the production of petro- leum, and last year produced 54,000,000 barrels of crude oil. The amount of natural gas in sight, including that being utilized, that going to waste and that shut in, will approximate 2,000,000,000 cubic feet per day. At a conservative estimate, not to exceed 20% of the productive oil and gas fields have been developed. The United States Geological Survey is authority for the statement that the amount of coal in Oklahoma is 79,000,000,000 tons. These facts being true, it is 262 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK obvious that so far as we have available data, Oklahoma possesses a greater amount of fuel than any other state in the Union. Wl en it is remembered that approximately 90'r of all the power used in manu- facturing and other industrial purposes is derived from one of these three fuels, it will be easily understood what the future development of Oklahoma may be. But not in fuels alone is Oklahoma rich. The asphalt deposits in the southern part of the state are the most extensive in the Union. Complete data are not available, but at a conservative estimate, t' ere is enough asphalt in this region to pave all the streets of all the cities in the United States for the next hundred years, and even then one would scarcely know from where the material was taken. The lead and zinc deposits in northeastern Oklahoma are among the most prolific in this country. Within the last tw^o years a million dollars have been spent in mines and mills on a single square mile near Miami, and more than tiat amount has been taken from the ground at this place in the form of lead and zinc ore. The area in which we may expect to find lead and zinc in paying quantities includes several thousand square miles. Oklahoma possesses more gypsum than any other state. It is estimated that there are 123,000,000,000 tons of this material in sight in the western counties, which is enough to keep 100 mills, each manu- facturing 100 tons a day, busy for 34.000 years. Oklahoma 1 as enough salt water going to waste to make 100 carloads of salt a day. Her glass sand deposits are among the most extensive of those of any state. There is in southern Oklahoma a ledge of glass sand averaging fifty feet thick, and sixty miles long,' which, on analysis, is found to be often 99.987r pure silica. The granite deposits of Oklahoma are among the finest in the country. Twenty or more varieties of shade and texture are found. The Wicl'ita mountains, 1,000 feet high and sixty miles long, in south- western Oklal oma, are composed entirely of granite. An area of more than 100 square miles in the Arbuckle mountains is covered by gr^inite. Oolitic limestone, superior to the famous Bedford stone, occurs in very large quantities. Six separate areas in Oklahoma contain inex- haustible deposits of limestone, the greater part of which is suitable for the manufacture of Portland cement, for burning into lime, for concrete rock, and for building stone. Sandstone suitable for building is widely distributed. Clays and shales, suitable for the manufacture of brick, tile, sewer pipe and a large variety of clay products, are found in all parts of the state. Oklahoma contains considerable deposits of high grade manga- nese iron ore; some of the finest tripoli in the country: great beds of volcanic ash; extensive deposits of novaculite; and a large variety of other minerals of minor importance. Water Power. The water power resources of Oklahoma are extensive, but at the present time practically undeveloped. A number of swift-flowing streams, carrying constant volumes of water, cross the state. Power plants are now in operation at only four places, namely at Anadarko, Chickasha and Pauls Valley, on the Washita, and at Tishomingo on the Pennington. Such rivers as Poteau, Kiamitia, Blue, Boggy, Grand, Verdigris, Illinois, North Canadian and Little River, and creeks such as Rock, Honey, and Mill, contain an ample supply of water to run scores, not to say hundreds of power plants, capable of generating many thousands of horse power. RESOURCES 263 Two rather ambitious projects are now being considered. One, located in south-central Oklahoma, contemplates the construction of 10 or 12 plants, at various points, along the Washita river, between Lindsay and Berwyn. Ti:e combined power from these plants is to be carried to Oklahoma City, Shawnee, Ardmore and other towns in the central part of the state. A second project of nearly as great mag- nitade in the eastern part of the state contemplates the erection of a dam across Grand river near Muskogee. It is estimated that the power generated at this point, would be sufficient to supply light and power to a city of 200,000 people. Other projects have been surveyed at Keokuk Falls and Weleetka on the North Canadian, at Carnegie, Fort Cobb, Cloud Chief, Lindsay, Pauls Valley and Dougherty, on the Washita; near Belton and Milburn on tl:e Blue; at Tahlequah and Cookson on the Illinois. Suffice it to say that if the immense deposits of coal, oil and gas now lying dor- mant in our hills are ever exhausted, there is enough water power yet unutilized to supply all the plants, factories and mines that Oklahoma will ever need. Transportation. Oklahoma has G,106 miles of railroad. Only Texas, Missouri, and Gebrgia among the southern states, exceed her in mileage. :\Iost coun- ties have two or more competing lines of railroad. Five trunk lines cross the state, namely the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe; the Missouri, Kansas and Texas; the St. Louis and San Francisco; tie Kansas City, Mexico and Orient and the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific. The Santa Fe has direct connection with Chicago, Kansas City, Denver, Galveston and California. The Mis- souri, Kansas and Texas connects with St. Louis, Kansas City and Gal- veston. Four lines of the St. Louis and San Francisco cross Oklahoma, giving direct connection with the Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago and Texas points. The Rock Island crosses Oklahoma from both the north and east, connecting Chicago, Kansas City, Memphis and El Paso. The Kansas City, Mexico and Orient reaches Kansas City on the north, and is building toward the Pacific coast. Besides these trunk lines, there are a number of lines of minor importance, including the Missouri Pacific; Missouri, Oklahoma and Gulf; Fort Smith and Western; Midland Valley; Oklahoma Central, and several shorter lines. Need of Factories. Oklahoma's greatest need today is more factories. With un- limited natural resources, both agricultural and mineral, with a larger amount of fuel than any other state, and inexhaustible water power, Oklahoma is, at the present time, manufacturing very few of the comforts and necessities of life used by her people. Nine- tenths of the manufactured articles used in Oklahoma are imported from other states. Our people are today paying the market price plus the freight for the greater part of the articles which they use. At the same time the farmers of Oklahoma are able to sell their five staple crops: Corn, wheat, cotton, cattle and hogs, only in outside markets, and for these things they receive the market price less tho freight. To quote a few specific examples: Oklahoma has enough salt water going to waste to make 100 carloads of salt a day, yet all the salt used in the state comes from Kansas, Michigan and Louisiana. 264 OKLAHOMA RED BOOK There is enough limestone in Oklahoma to burn all the lime that the world will ever use, yet practically all our lime comes from Texas, Arkansas and Missouri. With as good shale as any state possesses, practically all the brick, terra cotta and other clay products used are imported from Kansas and Missouri. Oklahoma has as good granite as can be found in the world, yet in our cemeteries are mounments, and in our large buildings, pillars and cap stones, made of granite from Scotland, Vermont, and Massachusetts, but practically none from Oklahoma. With the largest deposits of gypsum in the United States, a considerable amount of our gypsum plaster comes from Kansas and Texas. With Portland cement rock enough to supply cement for all the world, and fuel in abundance for its manu- facture, we have but three cement plants, and much of the material we use comes from Kansas or Texas. With enough native asphalt in our hills to pave all the streets of all our cities, the greater part of our street paving is being done with the burned-out residue from the oil refineries. There is in Oklahoma but one cotton mill, but three glass factories, and six small oil refineries. We manufacture no shoes and but little clothing. Within the last year, two packing plants have been established in Oklahoma City. There are a few canning factories in various parts of the state, and most of the towns of any size have creameries. It is safe to say, however, that at the present time, not 10 per cent of the materials used for building, food or clothing by the people of Oklahoma, are manufactured in the state. There is no state in the Union where opportunities are better, where greater returns may be made on investment, or where the poeple are more willing and anxious to give support to legitimate manufacturing in- dustries. We appreciate the fact that the lack of these industries is a part of pioneer conditions. We accepted these conditions when we came to the new country, but because we were willing to accept them, is no reason, in itself, why we should always be willing to live under them. As soon as plants and factories are established, and mines and quarries opened, and the workmen necessary to carry on these industries are here, our farmers will be able to raise a still larger variety of crops and will receive a higher price for the products of the farm. Education. No southern state has a greater number of state schools than has Oklahoma. The head of the educational system is the State University at Norman. The Agricultural and Mechanical College is at Stillwater, and in addition there are six district agricultural schools. Six state normal schools are located respectively at Ed- mond, Alva, Weatherford, Tahlequah, Durant and Ada. There are university preparatory schools at Tonkawa and 'Claremore, and a college for girls at Chickasha. Agricultural and domestic science are taught in all the common schools of the state. Most counties now have consolidated rural schools. The work done in the high schools is up to the standard. The requirements for admis- sion to the freshman class at the State University of Oklahoma, are with a single exception, higher than for any other southern university. Graduates from the University of Oklahoma take rank along with those from any institution in America. Citizenship. In opening a conversation with a stranger in Oklahoma is it not necessary to talk about the weather. The proper thing is to ask: RESOURCES 265 "Where are you from?" We're all from somewhere. The oldest native has been voting little more than a year. Oklahoma is a meeting place for the clans. The northern farmer and the southern planter live side by side. The southerner harvests a wheat crop each year and the northern man is learning to grow cotton. The descendant of the Puritan and Cavalier vote at the same precinct. The grandchildren of Sam Houston and the offspring of Daniel Boone ride to town in the same automobile. Different traditions, different ideas, different viewpoints, mingle and commingle, yet out of the turmoil and tumult of ideas and opinions there is arising a newer, greater and grander civilization. Oklahoma is preeminently tlie young man's country. A man will make more advancement, attain a greater eminence in his profession or achieve greater success in business in five years in Oklahoma than in 20 years in one of the older states. We are not hampered by tradition nor have we any great respect for authority, as such. Precedent interferes with us not at all. We ask of a man one thing, and only one, namely, that he produce results. We have no heroes; neither Clays nor Calhouns, Lincolns nor Lees. We are little interested in either heroes or ancestors, but we are interested, intensely interested, in the half million boys and girls growing up in our midst. We have no past, and queerly enough we care little for one. Oklahoma is a country with a future and we would rather live in a country with a future than one with a past. In the older states a man, applying for a position, must be recommended, indorsed, vouched for, certified to, and analyzed, and not only he, himself, but his father and mother, brother and sister, his rich uncle, his maiden aunt, and all. his numerous relatives, even unto the third and fourth generation. One of the best recommenda- tions a young man can have in the east is that he belongs to one of the best families. In Oklahoma conditions are entirely different. We assume that a man is a gentleman and a scholar, that his grandfather did not steal sheep, and that his maiden aunt did not elope with the coach- man. We are not in the least interested in the family history. We ask a man two questions: First, "Can you do this work?" and, second, "Can you do it now?" If so, well and good. If not, get out of the way and let a man at it who can. This is the spirit that is today making Oklahoma great. This Is the spirit that is at work among our people, developing farms, constructing railroads, building factories and erecting skyscrapers. What we need is more men, more money. We are working as best we can, and the work is not always easy but we are not discouraged. We say to the world, "Get out of the way and watch us grow, or, better still, come in with us and help us grow." Statistics.

The state election board has charge of all primary and general state elections. The board is composed of three members, appointed by the governor. The secretary receives a salary of two thousand one hundred dollars per annum and the remaining tw^o members a salary of six dollars per day during the time they are in actual service of the state or going to or from the place of meeting, and hotel and traveling expenses, provided that pay shall not be allowed for more than fifty days in any one year or 200 days during a term. Returns from the counties of the state on all state elections are made to the state election board, where a record of all votes cast even to precinct divisions is kept. Certificates of election are given by the state board after the returns have been canvassed. The county boards are composed of one person selected by the state board, who shall be secretary, and two persons, selected one each by the two political parties, receiving the highest number of votes at the last previous general election.

One state cannot undo the act of another. By the Constitution every citizen is guaranteed a speedy trial by jury. A power which is vested in Congress alone cannot be exercised by a state. One state must respect the legal decisions and laws of another. Congress cannot pass a law to punish for a crime already com- mitted. A person who commits a felony in one state cannot find refuge in another. Bills for revenue can originate only in the House of Representa- tives, but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments. Treaties with foreign powers are made by the President and rati- fied by the Senate. The Territories each have a delegate in Congress, who is allowed the privilege of debate, but not the right to vote. The Vice-President, who ex-officio presides over the Senate, has no vote in that body except in a case of a tie ballot. If the President holds a bill longer than ten days, while Congress is in session, it becomes a law without his signature. An act of Congress cannot become a law over the President's veto except on a two-thirds vote of both houses. The House of Representatives may impeach the President for any crime, but the Senate has the sole power to try all impeachments. Amendments to the Constitution of the United States requires a two-thirds vote of each House of Congress and must be ratified by at least three-fourths of the States. The President of the United States must be 35 years of age; a Senator, 30; a Congressman, 2.5; the President must have been a resident of the United States fourteen years. A naturalized citizen is not eligible to the office of President of the United States. A male child born in a foreign land of American parents does not lose its American citizenship thereby.
