ONE CONSOLATION IS LEFT
Days of Carpet Bag Role Are Num-
bered and Sett Government
ia at Hand
The United States Indian Agent’s
office at Muskogee la being swamped
with letters trom all over the terri-
tory complaining of the outrage per-
petrateR in compelling parents or
natural guardians of children to bo
appointed by the courts before they
can serve as legal guardians.
Under the ruling of the secretary
of the Interior It Is necessary.for all
parents to be legally appointed guar-
dians for their children and the en-
forcement of thla ruling Is working
a hardship on hundred^ of the poor-
er classes who are unable financially
to stand the expense of giving bond
and paying court feea. Any number
of cases are reported where the court
has appointed other guardlana for
the chlltken and the parents, who
support the children, have not even
the right of the use of their children’s
money until the minors become of
age.
One case was mentioned by .a
prominent Cherokee here yesterday
where a judge of the United States
court had forbiddn, the use ot the
child’s money even when the parent
had Intended to add more than twlco
the amount of money belonging to
the child and build a house upon the
allotment of the minor. Instead of
allowing the father to build the house
the Judge ordered that tha money
be placed In some bank wheffe It
wonld draw a small interest as n
time deposit.
In many cases where others than
parents are appointed guardians the
parents are compelled to present a
bill of charges for the support of the
child to the guardian. In many cases
the charge for keeping t child la en-
tered at two dollars per month, which
will not keep a child In decent
clothes, much less feed It. In wind-
ing up hta protest this gentleman
who is the father of several children
said, "this ruling Is going to work a
hardship on me. hut I have one con-
solation and that ts that the end of
the days of carpetbaggism la near at
hand and I will soon have a chance
at the polls to tell who will make
our laws In the future.”

SOPER REFUSES
TO TAU POLITICS
Wily Politician From Mary D-VlUe
Learns at Last to Bridle His
Unraly Tongue
Pliny L. Soper, n prominent mem-
ber of the Flynn faction of the re-
publican party Is In Tulsa today on
legal business.
Mr. Soper refuses to talk polities
saying that Myron C. Boyle ts now
la charge of the political dope of
the republican party In this district.
Mr. Soper's chances for becoming the
republicau nominee for the United
States senate were rt one time ex
tremely good, but uce the McGuire
faction has usurped control of the
party his chances nave dw ,idled.
It Is n •latte, of ter -el to a great
many of the colonel'* friends that
he Vid not idly himself with the
controlling faction of the parly. The
same thing is also causing a little
uneasiness in McGuire headquarters,
for Mr. Soper's strength is not un-
derestimated.
The refusal of the colonel to talk
politics has som eslgnflcace as he Is
generally running over with politics
and is generally willing to an opin-
ion on nearly any subject but when
he refuses to talk politics there Is •
rat In the wood pile somewhere.

TELEPHONES SHOW
HOW TULSA GROWS
Ex|tanslon of Loral Telephone Sys-
tem an Infallible Index
To Growth of Tnlne
O. W. Fuller, of the Western Elec
trie company of Kansas City, with a
corps of men has Just about com
pleted the cable connections for the
addition on the new switch board of
the Pioneer Telephone company In
thla city. Mr. Fuller has had a num-
ber of men at work on this for about
two weeks and tbe new connections
give Tulea a much better eystem
than she has had heretofore!.
The new cables are the extensions
to the euburbe, which, with the great
demand for phones In the business
section necessitated the Installing of
the new switch board. The new
switch board ran be made to accom-
modate 2.000 phones although Iti
present capacity Is only 1.B00.
Mr. Fuller remarked to a Demo-
crat reporter that the great Increase
In the demand for phones was one of
the beet evidences of a healthy
growth of the city. He said that
eighty new phonee had been Install-
ed In Tulaa In 1;sa than a month.
Mr. Puller thinks that on the com-
letlon of the many new bulldlnge.
now under construction that the Pio-
neer Telephoene company will have
1,000 phonee In operation here.
Mr. Fuller expects to go toBnrtlee-
vllle this week, where a new board
will be installed. A part of the men
will be left here, however, to oom
plete the work.
MUSKOGEE. Sept. 24 — The de-
partment of Justice has decided on
a new plan to shut out gambling In
the Western district. There were,®
number of gamblers before tbe Uni-
ted States commissioner charged
with gamblin. They pleaded guilty
and were fined from $25 to |50 each.
The district attorney then asked
th United States commissioner to
place each of the Ramblers under s
peace bond. Under the Arkansas
statutes this can be done. Tbe dis-
trict attorney will ask that this bond
be made aa Urge as he law permits.
If the gamblers are caught gambling
again they forfeit this bond. It Is
good for thre eyears and applies
anywhere In the district. It Is be-
lieved that thla will either stop the
gamblers or else drive them out of
district.

CASH FOR CORN TO
OFFSET OIL SLUMP
Big Crap and Good Frtcra Will Tern
Loose Large Hems of Ready
Money
“The yield Is not going to bo ss
great as rrou people think,” said
prominent grain buyer In Tulsa
today, speaking of the present corn
crop. He aald, however, that he
thinks the quality of the corn is bet-
ter than he haa ever seen It before.
The corn market will open in a abort
time and It means a large amount of
money turned loose to the farmers
The price of corn at the opening
of the fall market will probably be
around thirty cents and local dealers
say that will no doubt be the lowest
price paid for corn In this section
this MI.
The quullty of corn will create
a demand for It that will be hard to
supply even with the Immense crop
about to be gathered. The turning
of tbe corn crop Is expected to off-
set the slump In the oil market to
some extent.

A lecture course of the beet tnleet
Is a large means tn Itself toward *
liberal education. New York City
has In late years taken up thla plan ,
as a means toward an education that
could not otherwise be supplied.
There la scarcely a hamlet or vlllngn
that does not now have Its tycoons of
some kind, and the larger cities often
maintain several. Muskogee has
sold 600 tickets toward ona this fall
and McAleater, Ardmore, Derant
and other leading towns of Oklaho-
ma will maintain courses, Oklahoma
City having four. Not only do the
larger towns but each towns as Mla-
ma. Afton. Wagoner, Pawhuska.
Sulphur, Wlnnewoo^. Ramona, Vtn-
Ita. Coweta, Bartleerills. Ogmnlgao,
Nowata, Hearyetta and many others
have all arranged for a course ot
somo kind.
Not only Is tha opportunity of
hearing the great men ot the day an
education In Itself, bnt It Is a liberal
culture end a great source of satis-
faction to the one who has than had
this opportunity.
Our purpose In handling the
course thru the schools is to give
every studen old enough to ap-
preciate better things an opportun-
ity of hearing these men. I believe
that It will be ot great consequence
whether or not a pupil bean sack

this. I believe every Individual who
buys a ticket and bean tbe numbers
