PERKY, Okla., Nov. 2. George C. j
Wills, charged with the murder of
Kirby Frans, federal prohibition
agent, was found guilty by a jury in i
district court here today, which rec- J
ommended life imprisonment in the
state prison.
The case was given to the jury late
last night and the verd'et returned
at 10 o'clock this morning.
As the jury filed into the room,
Wills, who was sitting with his at-
torney, fixed his gaze upon them and
continued to stare at them until the
court inquired as to the jury's de-
cision.
When the verdict was read Wills
shaded his face with his left hand
and was extremely nervous.
Wills' trial lasted nine days, and
was one of the most sensational ever
heard in this section of the state.
Herbert Peck, retiring United
States district attorney, aided in the
prosecution of the case at the direc-
tion or the department of justice.

Today the farmer is in a worse condition than he has
been at any time since the panic of ninety-three.
The price of his products is getting nearer and nearer to
the rock bottom level of that disastrous period.
Corn has dropped below twenty cents and is again burned
as fuel in many sections of the country.
Wheat is hovering around eighty cents ar.d the price of
cattle has gone to nothing.
Cotton alone is holding up. but of course there is little
cotton to sell.

Freight rates are higher than ever. Fuel is higher than N ()Ur proljuct>
ever. Taxes are higher than ever. In fact, everything that the * , ,
farmer must buy or pay for is higher than it has been since
eighteen ninety-three, with the possible exception of the two
war years.
Is it anj wonder then that the farmers are hard up and
that farm and chattel mortgages are increasing at an alarming
rate? Indeed, there are already a number of Oklahoma coun-
ties in which the mortgaged indebtedness of the farmers ex-
ceed- the total value of their holdings.
This means that if the farmers in those counties sold all
their land, improvements, implements, furniture and live stock
they could not pay their debts. In othei ord-, these people
are bankrupts, who occupy their farm linn - - bs the grace of
money lenders, who dare not foreclose on the mortgages thej
