BANKING BOARD FIGHTS BACK
Suits Against Nineteen Nationals Filed
In District Courts Wednesday
Suits totaling approximately $30,000
were brought by the state banking
board Wednesday against former state
bankB that have recently nationalized,
in an effort to force the payment of
the one per cent assessment made on
March 2, last, for the purpose of re-
plenishing the state guaranty fund.
Suits against fourteen other banks
will be filed, the papers already having
been prepared.
The suits were instituted in the dis-
tricts courts in the counties in which
the various banks, that have refused
positively to pay the assessment, are
located, by the law firm of Stuart, Gil-
bert & Cruce, which has been em-
ployed by the state banking board.
Originally it was planned to bring
suit against forty-one banks, but a
number of them, totaling, it is said, as
many as eight, either paid the assess-
Complainti Filed
E. C. Patton, secretary of the corpor-
ation commission, filed complaint with
the commission Thursday against the
Oklahoma Railway company because of
its failure to report immediately, as
required by the order of the commis-
sion, the accident on the Britton Ifn*
Tuesday night, which resulted in the
death of Motorman K. L. Carruthers
and the injury of a number of passen-
gers. Members of the commission
state that there is Bomeone on duty
in Its offices Twenty-four hours of the
day to whom reports can be made, and
that no report of the Britton wreck
was received until about 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning.
Complaints also were filed against
the Rock Island railroad for failure
to report the accident near Pond Creek
Monday in which a passenger train
struck an automobile and injured two
of its occupants v#y seriously. No
report at all in regard to that accl-

Upholds Guthrie Charter
After hearing arguments from both
sides in connection with the new
Guthrie city1 charter, Governor Cruce
decided that the charter as a whole
was not unconstitutional and gave it
his approval. The governor's posi-
tion was that the constitution intend-
ed the cities of the state which adopt-
ed charters of their own to have the
greatest possible latitude in the con-
duct of municipal affairs, and that
unless the charter as a whole was
dlearly in conflict with the constitu-
tion it was his duty to approve it.
He also held that where there was
any doubt as to the constitutionality
of certain provisions the doubt should
be resolved in favor of the charter as
far as possible, and the final decision
on such points left to the courts. He
stated that there were a few points
in the Guthrie charter which might
be open to some question, but that
that matter should be decided by the
courts.
ment or made definite promises to do , dent has been received by the com
so. The names of other banks that
paid or made positive promises to pay
at once were not available Wednesday
night.
J. C. McClelland of the state bank-
ing board made the statement Wed-
nesday night that eight state banks
thus far have refused to pay the as-
sessment. Suits will be Instituted
against them immediately, unless they
comply with the order of the banking
board, declared Mr. McClelland. In ad-
dition there are three institutions that
changed from state to national banks
just previous to the assessment, that
have defied the banking board to col-
lect the assessment. A test suit will
be instituted against one of them.

REPATRIATED.
HE HAD $400.00 IN CASH IN 1903;
NOW WORTH $8,000.00.
My parents were originally Cana-
dians from Essex County, Ontario. I
was born in Monroe County, Michigan,
from which place I moved to Red I^ake
Falls, Minnesota, where I farmed for
22 years. I sold my farm there in the
summer of 1903 and In September of
that year came to Canada with my
wife and eight children. I had about
$400 In cash, team of horses, a cow, a
few sheep and some chickens. I took
up a quarter section of land near Jack
Fish Lake, Meota P. O., and later on
purchased for $2,000.00 an adjoining
quarter section. I have now 48 head
of cattle, a number of horsfs, good
buildings and consider my holding is
worth at least $8,000.00. My children
have raised from $300 to $500 worth
of garden truck each year since we
have been here. I have never had a
poor crop and have never had one
frosted. My wheat has averaged from
25 to 30 bushels per acre with one or
two years considerably more. Sly
oats have always yielded well up to 50
bushels per acre and once or twice as
high as 85. My cattle have never been
stabled in winter, and do not need it.
I consider that this country offers bet-
ter opportunities for settlers than any-
where I have ever been. I am sure
that almost any person can come here
and buy land at say $15.00 per acre
and pay for it in one crop. My ex-
perience is that if a man farms his
land in the right way he is not likely
to have his crop frosted.
Most of the settlers In my district
are Americans and Canadians and I
know lots of them who came here with
little or no capital who are now do-
ing well, but I do not know of any who
have left through disappointment, or
becoming discouraged, have returned
to their former homes.

Matrimonial Mixup in Which Linda

While I was being shaved the shop
door opened gently and in walked a
colored boy of fifteen, who looked
around in an embarrassed way for a
moment and then said to the barber:
"Jim, you was ingalged to by siBter

"You mean I Is engaged to her,"
was the pompous reply.
"But Linda has sent word."
"Oh, she has? Does she dun want

"No, sah; she dun wants you to

"What? What's dat? Your sister

YEARS OF INTENSE SUFFERING
a
Backache
Is only ont of many symptoms which some women en-
dure through weakness or displacement of the womanly
organs. Mrs. Lizzie White of Memphis, Tcnn., wrote
Dr. R. V. Pierce, as follows :
" At times I was hardly able to be on my feet*
I believe I had every pain and ache a woman
could have. Had a very bad case. Internal
organs were very much diseased and my back
was very weak. I suffered a great deal with
nervous headaches* in fact, I suffered all over*
This was my condition when I wrote to you for
advice. After taking your • Favorite Prescrip-
tion* for about three months can say that my
health was never better.'*
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
Is a positive cure for weakness and disease of the feminine organism. It allay*
inflammation, heals ulceration and soothes pain. Tones and builds up the nerves.
Do not permit a dishonest dealer to substitute for this medicine which has a
record of 40 years of cures. " No, thank you, I want what I ask for."

How a Bad Case of Kidney Trouble
Was Finally Routed.
Mrs. John Light, Cresco, Iowa, says:
"For years I was an intense sufferer
from kidney disorders. The kidney se-
cretions passed irregularly, my limbs
were badly bloated,
and feet bo swollen I
could not wear my
shoes. I tried many
remedies but became
discouraged as nothing
helped me. Then I
began taking Doan's
Kidney Pills and soon
noticed improvement.
I continued until I could rest well at
night and the kidney secretions be-
came normal. I da not believe I would
be alive today were It not for Doan's
Kidney Pills.

Attorney Denies Report
The attorney general has received a
letter from Harry P. Weber of the
firm of Shope, Kane, Busby & Weber
of Chicago, bond attorneys, in refer-
ence to an article in an Oklahoma City
paper quoting him as having given an
unfavorable opinion in regard to the
.validity of the Oklahoma public build j
ing bonds, in which he states that he
has not passed on that question and
would not do so without full knowl-
edge of the proceedings.
STOCK ALWAYS TAXABLE
Shares in Muskogee Firm, Held In
Boston, May Be Levied On.
Guthrie, Okla.—Stock in Oklahoma
concerns, although held in other states,
Is subject to taxation in Oklahoma.
This is Attorney General West's opin-
ion Wednesday to State Auditor Leo
Meyer relative to the collection of an
Inheritance tax on seven shares of
stock in a Muskogee concern, which
form a portion of the property left in
Boston, Mass., by Mrs. Annie L. Motte,
who died there recently.
West holds such stock to be prop
erty and taxable In Oklahoma, and
therefore subject to the inheritance
tax of this state.
A Busy Agent
Complaint was filed with the corpor
ation commission Saturday by the Mor-
rison Grain company, asking that the
Frisco be required to give additional
assistance to its agent at Morrison.
The complainant alleges that the
agent is so busy that it is impossible
to get information regarding tariffs
and similar matters, although he does
his best to handle the business.

CURED ITCHING AND BURNING
"I was taken with the itch in April,
1904, and used most everything. I
had a friend pay me a visit from
Cumberland, and she advised me to
use Cuticura Remedies which I did.
j The cure was certainly quick, and I
! use them to this day. I had It terrl-
I only used one
two boxes of Cuti-

ing for me." (Signed) Miss Lu John-
son, 1523 Ninth St., N. W., Wash-
ington, D. C., April 3, 1910.
In a later letter Miss Johnson adds:
The trouble began with an eruption
' under my knees, and extended up-
wards toward my waist, until I was
not able to sit down. It kept a con-
stant itching and burning all the time,
night and day. I went to my doctor,
but he could do me no good after I
do not know how many medicines he
gave me, and then told me I would
be compelled to go to a skin special-
ist, which I positively refused to do. I
cried all the time. Finally 1 made
up my mind to try Cuticura Rem-
edies, and tried Cuticura Pills, Oint-
ment and Soap, and was entirely
cured of the itching three days after
I started using them. The healing
took about eight days. I consider

How He Did It.
At the dinner Saturday of the Mili-
tary Order of Foreign Wars, Captain
Carlyle L. Burrldge told of a man
who, returning to his domicile at
cockcrow, underwent an Inspection by
his wife, who desired to know how
he came to have a large bump on his
forehead.
"That? Oh, that's where I bit my-
self," explained he of the night key.
"Bit yourself?" the lady repeated
after him. "How could you bite your-
self away up there?"
"Why, I stood on a chair," he said.—

Promises Another Hearing
The oil pipe lines companies, and
especially the three larger ones, the
Prairie, the Clulf and tne Texas com-
panies, have petitioned the state j
hoard of equalization for a hearing
on the assessment on their property,
which was materially increased over
their returns. A tentative assessment
was made on practlcalyl all other
corporations, which were then given
« chance to appear and protest, but
jno such opportunity was given to those
companies. Oovernor Cruce has prom-
ised them a chanc* to be heard
and was advised that under a recent
decision of the supreme court the en
rolled bill is the law, regardless ol
what tile records prior to Its passage
may show. The section where the
well will have to be drilled under the
bill as It stands Is down in a draw and
practically worthless for agricultural
purposes, but inasmuch as the wells
are not being drilled for the benefit ol
the particular lands on which they are
located but as a test to show whether
artesian water can be obtained In that
locality, it doesn't matter.
