THE FUTURE,
i'ho old song of writing mi
obituary for tho New Year Inis
gone out of date. People do tiol
care to read so mucli of thr past
a% they do of the future. We are
living in a progressive age. I lie
mile post of another year lias been
passed, and slowly but surely we
are approaching* another section.
The future is what we make it.
The [last is history that will go
down in the archives of time.
For the now year of 11)03 let us
all put our shoulder to the wheel
and help push 1 lie car ot destiny
of Perry through any and all
breakers that may come in her
way. It takes a united etl'ort to
accomplish results, and the future
of Perry and Noble county lie
pends on our efforts. Lot us
work.
SHOW A WILL I NUN ESS.
The Sicmtinki, lias made an
etl'ort to collect some of its back
subscription and during the past
six weeks we have mailed out
statements to many of our sub-
scribers. Some have responded
and some have not. We didn't
expect that all would come in by
the firsl of the new year, but to
those who have done so we are
doubly, thankful. If those who
areahsolulely unahle to pay now
■will either caller sctul us a letter
informing ns of the fact, we, will
endeavor to carry them a while
lunger. \\ !• would like very
initeli for those who are several
years behind to show some dtspo
silion that they respect their debt
to the paper by notifying us of
the same. We don’t ask you to
ninkea “paupers allidavit,” but
simply a willingness on your part
Bryan’s lecture tour through
Oklahoma had the postmaster
editors handicapped and hog tied
They couldn’t criticize his lecture
without offending the interests of
the church for which Mr. Bryan
benefitted.
For the fiscal year ending dune
3, 1902, the auditor of the post
office department shows that Perry
is seventh on the list in Oklahoma,
being $10,452. Oklahoma City,
El Reno, Enid, Guthrie, Kingfisher
and Shawnee being ahead only a
small margin.
It is luml to tell whether the
Norman Transcript is kicking on
\V. J. Bryan’s lecture, or the re
ceipts of the church. The editor
of the transcript should have been
given a front seat on the stage.
This, possibly, was an oversight
Ira Terrell, who is serving a
term in the penitentiary for mm
der has won his ease before the
Supreme Court of Kansas, ami
will get a rehearing. In the
motion for a rehearing Terrell
sets up that the contract between
the governor of Oklahoma ami
the warden of ltic* penitentiary
was illegal. Terrell lost out in
the lower court and appealed to
the supreme court, which sus
tained the motion.

I. I he department looks to the

,service, who ate leeching the
bene tils of the sei v ice, to use their
utmost personal endeavors, and
also to exert their inllucnco with
the Road Supervisors, or with
those ollieials who aro responsible
for the condi! ions of the highways;
to the end that the roads travelled
by rural curriers may ho always
kept open and in such passable
shape that the service can he re-
gularly and punctually performed.
2. Should the regularity of the
service ho needlessly destroyed as
the rfmll <d' inattention and lack
of care bestowed on the highways,
the permanent withdrawal of the
delivery will very likely result.
3. Kuril! letter carriers are
required to serve their routes re-
gularly at all seasons of the year
and in every kind of weather when
it can he done without mill sly
imperiling their lives or emlaii
giu ing their eonveyaneesor the U

4. Patrons should dear away
tiie snow drifts, so that carriers
can drive up to and rcueh boxes
mm their vehicles without dis-
mounting.
5. It is not a part of the ear
ricr’s duly to break out the roads
after severe snow storms.
<i. Rural carrier’s are expected
to energetically try to serve their
routes even though (lie conditions
may hu extremely adverse, and
any undue lack of zeal on their
part should lie promptly brought
In the attention «f this oliieo fur

THE HUY’S GltlKF.
Composed by an idle mind at an idle
time.
When the angry passion gathering
In my mother’s face I see,
And she leads me to the bed-room,
(iently lays me cross her knee,
Then 1 know that I will catch it
And my llesli In fancy itches
As I listen to the patter
Of the shingle on my breeches.
Every tingle of ttie shingle
Has an echo and a sting,
And a tlmusand burning fancies,
Into active being spring:
And a thousand bees and hornets
'Neath my coat tail seem to swarm,
As I listen to the patter
* if the shingle, oh! so warm.
In a sudden Intermission
Which appeared my only chance,
I said, "Strike gently mother
Or you’ll split my Sunday Pants.”
She stopped a moment drew her
breath,
And the shingle held aloft
Andsaid, "I hadn’t thought uf that
My son, just pull them oil.”
Holy Moses and the Angels
Hast thy pi trying glances down,
And thou, oh! family doctor
I*ut, a good soft poultice on;
Ami may I with fools and dunces
Everlastingly mingle
I f I over say a wol d
When my mother weilds the
shingle.

The motion for a now trial in
the Wells case was argued before
Judge Mainer this week. After
hearing the argument the judge
overruled (lie motion and gave
Wells a sentence of eight years in
the penitentiary. The case wil
be appealed.
In the mandamus ease of Miss
Jessie Daniels vs. Miss Annie
DeLaslumitl, for possession of the
office of County Superintendent
was argued before Judge Mainer.
Me took the matter under ad-
v iscmeiit.
JEST LIKE HIM.
In the Daily Democrat, of ElKeim,
Judge Dale, of Cuthrie, says: "If we
do not gel statehood in the omnibus
hill we will not get statehood at all
Every loyal citizen in Hie territory
should work for the omnibus Uili,
Statehood for (iklatioma means cany
lug every provision of lhe Democratic
platform. We wilt eventually get In-
dian territory. Every man in favor
of statehood and especially in West-
ern Oklahoma should work enl husiast i
•cully for Its passage In the senate.”
“Wehave been working for ihcomui
bus hill from t tie beginning," adds the
Daily Democrat "ll is not a case of
death bed repentenee with us. but a
case of open rebellion against Mose
Anderson and liis pie hunting bri-
gade.’’—Blackwell Ttmes-Heconl.
Judge Dale lives in Guthrie.
Me belongs to the old ohsolite
gang of Cleveland appointees, w ho
in the hour of adversity, under-
took to deliver the Democratic
party iuto the camp of the eneinv
but dissnpoints no one by array -
ing himself against his party, be-
lieving no doubt, as he doe-, that
Guthrie is bigger and more power
ful than the Democracy of Okla
homa. Like Grover Cleveland,
he has, by favors extended from
his party in the past, placed him-
self beyond the hand of charity,
and, like Benedict Arnold, turns
against his own household,
dog has his day.

VICTIMS OF A N C I E N T
FKAI'OS.
Daily newspapers and" weekly
and monthly publications in every
part of the country have repeatedly
and eonspienously exposed the
fraudulent tricks of dealers in
“gold bricks,” uf bunco steerers
of “green goods” swindlers and
of the thieves who pretend that
they cmii plunder the poolrooms
by “lapping" wires, so Hint the
results of races ean he learned in
advance of the regular dispatches
to llm bookmakers. All of lliese
schemes for robbing simpletons
have been laid bare so frequently
and so plainly that pvery man lit
to be at large should he on his
guard by tliis lime against them.
Nevertheless, at short intervals
eases come up in the courts shiny
mg not merely that muddy minded
dupes are not all dead, but that
hosts of them are still living. The
one crop that neyer fails is the
crop of fools \ \c\y V in ker of
some means is noyy complaining
flint a pair of rascals have fleeced
him out of more than $*,(>(>(•
through the old, worn, ragged
and frazzled game of looting the
poolrooms I»y tapping the wires.
Dues this foolish victim ever read
a newspaper! Did he never see
a published explanation of this
thin and hollow scheme of thiev-
ery f But there ine manv persons
like unto him, and it must not be
forgotten that every one yvlio tam-
pers yyitli the sellersof counterfeit
money, yyitli the lumen scoundrels
yy ill) the “shellgame, " yy itli monte
or yvith wiretapping is himself
dishonest at heart. Me is trying
to get hold of money illegally and
unfairly when lie lends himself to
tin* devices of these cozeners. The
siitlereis deserve scant sympathy .
I hey fell among thieves, hut they
were trying to till their own pock
ets by cheating.
WEATIIEKFOltD NORMAL.
Guthrie, Okla., Dec. 80.—G. W.
Baxter, territorial superintendent
of public instruction, said [today
that the hoard of regents at its
meeting in Edmond next Friday,
wonlil probably consider the quos
lion of eroding the buildings for
the Southwestern normal school
at Weatherford. Bids will proba-
bly be advertised for from that
time until February I. Construc-
tion is expected to begin by March
I, and (he building to be ready for
occupancy by the 1st of Septum
her.
The last legislature appropriat
ed $52,000 for the Southwestern
normal, and of this amount about
$20,000 has been collected and is
available. The committoo ap-
pointed by Governor Barnes lo-
cated the school at Weatherford,
hut a second committee appointed
by Governor Jenkins, named
Granite as the site. The legisla-
ture ratilied the report of the
Barnes Committee, hut before
work lould begin the Granite peo-
ple applied for a restraining or-
der.
The matter was thoroughly
gone into by Judges Mainer and
Burrell, both of yy houi decided
against Granite. I’lie matter was
then argued in the supreme court
on an agreed statement of facts
and Chief Justice Bui ford sus-
tained the finding of the loyver
court, lie held that the Barnes
committee was the only regularly
appointed body and yvas in full
force until removed. Jenkins"
appointment of the second com-
mittee < |id not consider operative
as a removal.
It is understood, however, that
notwithstanding the findings of
of the loyver courts and the ruling
of Chief Justice Burford, there is
likely to he a restraining order
issued by a probate judge while
the district court is not in session
enjoy ir.g the construction of the
school at Weatheiford.
