LM.-Out of the active brniu nnd mlvonturous spirit of Crtpt. 1) vo 1'ayiio , known in border Hfo and drnina as tlio Scout of the Ciinaron , grow the project known aa the Oklahoma colony , scheme. And that scheme is the settlement of tin ) lands belonging to the government of the United Slates. n vast body of line nrnblo land in the Indian Territory , on the north fork of the Canadian rivur. The pro ject of planting u white colony in the very heart of the Indian Nation was at lirat regarded with inditl'urenco and afterwards with nbaolute ridicule ; but , to those who personally know Capt. Pnyno , and know him as he is , tins project is not the dream of u fanatic. To thorn I'ivyno is fostering no wild , fdibusterini ; scheme , nor lawlessly do- fyini * the novernniont of the United Stales. Capt. Payne is a man of abil ity nnd legislative experience. Atone ono time he represented tin's conntyin the legislature. 111 ! 13 A MAN OK KDULMTION and business capacity , and has an ac quaintance bounded only by State lines. Ho is thoroughly conversant with Indian customs , manners , and warfare , skilled in woodcraft , and the peer of any marksman on the border with the ritlo. His courage never was questioned. Ho is a yiant in stature and a marvel in strength. Such , then , is a pon-picturo of Capt. D.xvo Payne "Oklahoma" Payne a ° j ho is now called who for years has nursed his pet project of opening these lands for settlement , amlgivento the enterprise all of his time , attention , and nkill. Dtiring'tho JwarthoClnctawB , Creeks , Scmiuolcs , and Chicasaw Indian tribes went into the rebellion to destroy the Union. In the months of April and .Inly , 18i(5 ( ( , the Govern ment of the United States treat ed witli these indian tribes. In the treaties then made the govern ment intimated that it desired lands for the freedmen and the wild tribes on the plains. Thereupon THH nOVUK.VMT.VT I'Um'HAhKI for that purpose what are now known as the Oklahoma hinds in the Indian Territory , and paid therefor from 15 to 00 cents per aero , and thereby ex tinguished the Indian title. There are now no freedmen , all being alike citizens of the United States. Since the treaties by the yjvornment and said tribes the congress of the United States , acting upon the piotcst of the states of Arkansas , Missouri , Kansas and Texas , in connection with the civ ilised and half civilized tribes resid ing in the Indi.in Territory , has con stantly legislated against the intro duction and settlement of said wild In dians on the Oklahoma lands. These lands are not within any re servation by proclamation , law , or treaty , and are therefore government lauds , subject to pre-emption and homestead under the act of congress of September , 1811 , and the homestead - stead laws of 1802. In the month of March , 187 ! ) , the Oklahoma Colony and Oklahoma town company wcro formed in this city , with Capt. Payne as president of both companies. IN .IUXK , 1880 , Payne , with several companions , at tempted a Eottlement on the Oklaho ma lands , having , in the meantime , surveyed and laid out the city of Okla homa , but was prevented by United States troops , and Payne with his five companions were taken prisoners to Fort Smith , Arkansas , and there confined by the United States authorities for the period of thirty days , and afterwards , with out any trial or punishment , all re leased. In the fall of the same year Cunt. Payne made a hecond effort to settle on the ceded lands ; but was again ejected by the Federal troops , and confined at 1'ort Smith for twenty-six days. At this time Payne was indicted by the United States District Court of the Western Dis trict of Arkansas , The indictment was found muter Sec. 2LI8 , of the general laws of the United States , which is us follows : "If any poraun who has been removed from the Indian country shall thereafter at any time return or be found within the Indian country , ho shall bo liable to a penalty of § 1,000. " Upon the presentment of this indictment Pa ) ne by his coun sel demurred on the ground that the.se landi wcro Government lands , and no part of the Indian country. The court , however , overruled the demtir- nr , but 1'aynu never was brought to tiial , nor was nnythini ; further done in the matter , Dining all this time J'AVNIS WAN AT and actively engaged in hilt colony nchoiiio. In the late fall of 1880 I'aynu , with novoral hundred families compos ing his colony , assembled near Caldwell - well , upon the southern border of Kansas , mid attempted tocross the in tervening fifty-mile strip of Indian country in the Indi.in Territory be tween Kansas and the ceded lands , but wa = i restrained by Federal troops. After ii delay of several weeks the col- oiiinlH dispersed to their homus , and Paynu returned to Wichita , lint in thu face of all obstacles Payne persevered , and left this city about Nov. 1 , and , contrary to all expecta tions , lias now planted his colony on the to\v it-site of Oklahoma City , meeting no opposition from any source. Without doubt the law of the land is with Capt. Payne at least HO say eminent lawyers of St. Louis and Now York City who have been con sulted and li.'tvu carefully examined thin question in all of its bearings , OKLAHOMA is an Indian name , and means beauti ful land. And if this new country in all Ilia colonisth picture it , it muni bo a beautiful land indued , it is unoccu pied by any human being HIVO roving hauls of Indian hunters and Payne and his companions. It is a country diversified with dale and hillside , well watered , with an abundance of tim ber , and abounds with game , -Min- orcl Hpccimens brought here by Payne duiiny the present Hummer display coal , lead , copper , nnd oven silver. Millions of acres of the tine agricultural , grazing , ami mineral lands in the Oklahoma ceded lands will coon bo brought into mar " ket. The St. Louis "San Francisco Railway Company , ono of thy most vigorous and pttsliini' corporations .f the west , are extending their io.id from Vanita , 1. T. , to Albuquerque , N. M. , crossing the Indian Tertitory from east to west , and passing thun.gh tlio ceded lands of Oklahoma. It is , therefoie only a ijuostion of time when Oklahoma will bo opened to settlement , and il requires no pro phetic i'j'0 to sco the Territory of Oklahoma take her place in the sisterhood of states and territory of the union , O. IL II.STU\ ! : . QOV , PERKINS ON A .BUST. Hewn Frlahy Billy Gout Got Full of Boor nnd Smnnltoil ThtiiRs Gouornlly- DrrrUk OoiM In Sim Krunclreo 1'ost. A tall , thin man , with a red nose , gray side whiskers , and a melancholy expression drifted into the oflice of The Post last week , and asked , in u subdued voice , if there was an unem ployed reporter on the stall' just then. ' 'Because , " said the stranger , "a very pecnlhr thine happened up our way I live at Hayes Valley this morning , and which perhaps jou might work up into a sort of item , somehow. " "What sort of a thing ? " said the managing editor , winking to the light ing editor to get his club ready in case the sad man pulled out a poem or any other dangerous eontrivanco. "Well , in the first place , " said the stranger , ( distractedly , "do you hap pen to know the ollcct of boor on ani mals ? " "Can't say 1 do. " "It's exactly the reverse of what it is on mo. Instead of soothing 'em it excites their nervous organization to the highest pitch. Actually makes "em insane. " "Does , eh ? " "Yes , sir ; and this morning , as it was rather sultry , I sent my youngest boy for a gallon of beer. He stopped on the way and put the can down to piny marbles. MeGinty's old blaok billy-goat came along and drank up the beer every drop of it. " "Groat Ciesar ! " said the court re- poiter , smacking his lips , regretfully. "Ho drank every drop of it , and nearly choked to death on the can. Jlo stood blinking around for auhilo ; then ho started for a street ear , with all colors set. Ho hit the horse square amidships , and it foundered at nice. " "Wrecked , 1 supposo/1' / said the editor. "Precisely. The goat then glanced oil' , killed tlio driver and telescoped the car. 1 was sitting at the window all this tme , and my attention was attracted by Gov. Pet kins going down the street boll bent for election. " "Gov. Perkins ? " "That's the goal's name you see. McGinty is a strong republican. There were four men gcttim ; a piano cut of a wagon across the street when the governor went through Vm like a nilo-drivor behind tinw. The Steinway - way was sent to the manu factory and the men to the hospital. Terrible , wasn't it. " "Is this goat story in ono act ? " asked the militia special , getting out his Springfield. " "In ono scone and nine tableaux , " said the stranger solemnly. "On the next block the governor came across a Dutch picnic , headed by a briiia band. The Teutons were tooling Listen to the Mocking Bird , ' and the way that goat stood on his hind legs and waltzed around the pavement to the music was just too funny for any thing. I may Bay that it was actually amusing. It slipped up on a banana pool once , and fell against a cigar sign. " "Nevermind the scenery , " said the editor , motioning the devil to call in six of of the healthiest compositors. "Well , pretty soon the band changed elF into 'Como Where My Love Lies Dreaming. ' " "Did the goat come ? " "Yon just bet ho did. Ho didn't fancy the new tune somehow , and the lirat thing the dium major know Per ky wo call the goat Perky for .short Perky took him in the stomach , broke him clean in two , wont through the rest of the band , including the big drum , and so on clear down to the end of the picnic , which was four squares long. I think there were ninety-two killed and eight hundred and nix wounded. Pretty good , when yon consider the entile ( hiving power was only one gillon of cheap beer ; now , wasn't it ? Now , it occurred to " "Just one minute , " said the editor , signaling the stall' to spit on their hands and limber up for action. "Al low mo to explain what occurred to you. You concluded tocatch the yout when he got soUor and bring him down here for our benelit. You have him tied to a lite plug around thu corner , and if we will only ' 'hip in about four bitti for boor you will got the animal otaitod and wo can watch the fun.
