The Cherokee "Orient," says three

to a farm house near Vining and
asked permission to dig in a mound

"Yep," and they went after coin
said to have been buried by white
men escaping from Indians in 1S45.
Just who put up the story and who
these gold hunters were we do not
know, but for two reasons we are
quite certain they don't live in El

To the Farmers.
The Western Grain Co., Is an asso-
ciation of farmers, organized for the
purpose of erecting and operating
grain elevators in the interest of the
local farmers. The plan is to furn-
ish capital and establish elevators at
any shipping point where one hun-
dred farmers will agree to deliver
their grain to the company. The
company agreeing to handle all grain^
and produce at a profit not to ex-
ceed two per cent, instead of the
four to seven per cent margin now-
required by the grain dealers assoc-
iation. The required one hundred
farmers have already pledged their
support to the enterprise, which will
assure the erection or purchase of
an elevator in El Reno.
G. O. Conville lias pledged himself
to the company to sell twenty shares
of stock at *100 per share. When
this stock is sold the twenty share
holders will be entitled to elect one of
their number to take charge and man-
age the El Reno elevator.
In our judgement this is one of the
best things the farmer and wheat
grower has had a chance to Invest in

The invocation by Rev. Berry of
the Baptist church was an earnest
appeal for divine guidance and thanks
giving for the educational advantages
of the American people.
The duet sang by Mr. anil Mrs. A.

beautiful selection in which their
rich melodious voices blended very
charmingly and was heartily apprecia-
ted. .
"Adrift in Mid-Ocean," was the
subject of an oration by Miss Matil-
da Hoffman and it was delivered
with clear enunciation and power
evidencing an exalted conception of
life's duties and a practical idea of
the manner of reaching our highest
ambitions. Her comparisons were
remarkably applicapable, and through-
out her excellent address she receiv-
ed close attention and hearty ap-
plause, followed by a profusion of
bouquets.
The Snow King," was the difficult
subject of Miss Nellie Crockett and
it required a vast amount of historic
research and earnest study, coupled
with ability in composition to get
much out of her subject and yet she
succeeded in producing a remarkably,
interesting, and entertaining oration.
"The conflict of colors," upon which
Mr. Howard Crockett, based his ora-
tion is a question that has, and is
puzzling the great statesmen of tho
republic. He deprecated the enfran-
chisement of the negro while in ig-
norance af> a terrible evil to both the
white and black races, he also argued
forcibly against colonization and ex-
portation and in favor of education
along lines laid down by Brooker T.
Washington and other groat educa-
tors of the colored race and he ex-
pressed his ideas with force and ease
which denoted natural oratorical
ability of a high order.

Bruckman was heartily applauded.

Our Judges.
The editor of the Oaks Magazine in
an article on which he touches upon
the national types of men which have
gone froA us. has the following to
say of our judiciary: "For Instance,
it has Steadily declined In tone and
ability. It is not too radical a state-
ment to say that our judges are sway-
ed today by social, financial and poli-
tical considerations, and that in too
many instances they make the law a
mockery. The judges of the old
school always seemed to stand for
the law as it Is written, without fear
or favor, anil mingled freely with the
life of tlie community? yet he brought
to llie bench a rlgidness of conduct
and decision that won respect for all
law. This type of judge is almost
gone. Now we have the Judge that
makes political speeches, I ho judge
thai owns race horses, the judge that
drinks hard, the judge that allies him-
self to the worst elements in politics
and renders his decisions on a beck
and nod from Ills masters. The jud-
ges today are In the main, little tool-
ing. political hucksters, set tip like
ten pins by political bowlers."
"The citizen fears a judiciary of
this type. All over this country there
is loss respect and confidence in the
local, stale and national Judiciary than
ever before. This lack of confidence
is bread in the ignorance, tho tyran-
ny, the truckling indecencies of tho
judges themselves. Tho averaga
American citizen is more law abid-
ing today than he ever was before.
The judges are not.

Boys Arrested.
Three small boys were arrested
this afternoon for riding on the side
walk with their bicycles. There is
an ordinance to be sure against such
practices, but before the town en-
forces it rigidly, the officers ought to
see that the law against such grave
offences as gambling, prostitution and
Sabbath desecration are enforced.
We haven't any respect for a public
officer who will arrest a nice little
boy for riding his wheel on the side
walks and will allow a gambling hell
to run open on every corner.
Mark Twain says: "It is not al-
ways easy to stand prosperity—anoth-
er man's I mean." It is still harder
to see your friends and neighbors re-
joicing in good health, while you
don't even dare to eat boiled cabbage.

That Man "Ex."
That man "Exchange," says some
mighty good things occasionally, and
here is one of them: "A newspaper
is like a man—because generally It
reflects some man— and it should bo
judged as a man should be judged
largely and on the whole. No man
lives a perfect life; no editor prints
a perfect paper. If an editor is
honest, he is bound to offend some
one every day of his life; if lie doesn t
offend someone the editor is namby-
pamby and flabby. The same thing
is true of the average man. A news-
paper is bound to make mistakes,
in getting news it must necessarily
take hearsy. But if, in the long run
and in the main, week after week and
year after year, a paper stands for
decency, for honest thinking and ...

Too Great a Risk.
In almost every neighborhood some"
one has died from an attack of colic
or cholera morbus, often before medi-
cine could be procured or a physician
summoned. A reliable remedy for
these diseases should be kept at hand
The risk is too great for anyone to
take. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy has undoubt-
edly saved the lives of more people
and relieved more pain and suffering
than any other medicine in use. It
can always be depended upon. For
