K. M. Mcfarlin
Charlie Gorton returned lust night
from Tulsa, where he was the guest
of his old friend, R. M. (Hob) Mc-
Farlin, formerly of Norman. Mr.
McFarlin left here in 18 6 or '97,
removing to Holdenville. Me had
been in the stock business here, and
had gone almost broke, and had
hard sledding for several years after
leaving here, but now is on Easy
Street in every particular.
Mr. McFarlin is now rated at
something like I7.0U0.000, consisting
of a large number of paying oil
Wells In the Cushing, Osage and
Healdton fields, as well as the new
fields In Kansas, besides many farms
and great amounts of town property.
Holdenville, Okla., is his home town,
in which he owns a number of the
best business blocks and something
like twenty-seven farms around the
town, engaging extensively in farm-
ing. stock raising and banking. Mr.
Gorton accompanied him to Holden-
ville and was treated royally.
It is now Mr. McFarlin's ambition
to have the largest and best Here-
ford cattle ranch in the southwest,
and In accordance with that idea he
has given Mr. Gorton full control of
the matter of purchasing f>00 cows
of that strain of cattle. Charlie will
leave for Texas tonight, visiting Ft.
Worth, San Angelo and other .cattle
centers of that state. Mr. McFarlin
could not have secured a better man
for the purpose than Mr. Gorton, for
he thoroughly understands the busi-
ness and is thoroughly reliable. His
friends congratulate him on landing
in such an excellent position with
such a man as Mr. McFarlin, for it
cannot but result in their mutual
benefit.

New Fall Goods
are coming in now and are being offered at a
Great Sacrifice. We bought early for this
fall's trade and the merchandise that we bought is
from 25 to 33 1-3 per cent higher than when we
purchased, but notwithstanding this fact we are
selling our New Fall Goods at cost and
LESS THAN COST
We tried to cancel all of our fall merchandise or-
ders as we had made up our minds to quit business
in Norman, but the wholesale houses knew that we
were responsible and forced us to take the fall
goods, therefore you will have the opportunity to
buy New Fall Merchandise at a great saving.

r'gi.res were $1.40. This
mor i„ $1.43 is chalked up on the
board. The Kansas City Star says
that for the first time in fifty years
the United States has failed in this
1916 year to proluce enough wheat
to supply normal needs for bread and
seed, and whatever quantities are ex-
ported must come from the 163,000,-
000 bushels of last years crop on
hand.
Grain men and millers say high
prices are inevitable until the next
crop is harvested, and many of them
predict $2.00 wheat.

MAINE ELECTION MONDAY.
The most strenuous campaign that
even Maine ever experienced is closing
in that state tonight, and Monday.
Sept. 11th will be the election. A
governor and state officers, four con-
gressmen, two U. S. senators, legis-
lature, and a host of lesser officers
are to be elected. The present gov-
ernor and one of the senators are
Democrats and are seeking re-elec-
tion. The other U. S. senator to be
elected is to fill a vacancy caused by j before you buy elsewhere, for you'll
the death of Senator Burliegh. Three | sure miss it if you don't. Remember
of the four congressmen are now t*1e P'aee-
Republicans and one Democrat. A
world of money has been used and
many speeches made by both parties.
The vote of Maine four years ago
was: Wilson 51,113. Roosevelt 48,-
493, Taft 26,545, giving Wilson a
plurality of 2, 620. It is believed
nine-tenths of the Progressives have
returned to the Repubican party. The
combined vote of the Progressives
and Republicans is something like 23,- '
925 more than the Democratic vote. '
The result in Maine is looked upon
as an index of the feeling in the east
on the presidential race. If the
Democrats win (and they are sure
making desperate efforts along that
line). Wilson's stock will go up; if
they lose, especially by a Republican
majority of 10,000 or more, Wilson's
stock will go down. The betting is
even money that the Republicans will
make a clean sweep by 10,000 or
more.

<;i:rma!ns score victory
London, Sept. 7.—German and Bul-
garian forces have scored the great-
est victory in the Balkans since Ru-
mania entered the war, seven days
ago.
The strongly fortified Rumanian
town of Tutrakai, on the Danube,
blocking the way to the Rumanian
capital, only fifty miles to the north-
west, has been captured with twenty
thousand prisoners. The Germans
and Bulgarians struck a quick blow,
trapped the Rumanians on the south
bank of the Danube, and besides cap-
turing more than half a Rumanian
army corps, bagged one hundred
guns and caused the Rumanian
heavy losses, Berlin reported this af-
ternoon.
Th loss of Tutrakai was officially
admitted by the Russian war office
this afternoon, although no mention
was made *of Russian forces co-op-
erating in the defense. The German
war office later announced the cap-
ture with details as to prisoners and
guns.
Tutrakai, which has been evacu-
ated by the Rumanian troops in the
face of German and Bulgarian at
tacks, is one of a series of fortresses
defending the Rumanian capital
from the south. It is on the south-
ern bank of the Danube opposite 01
tamitsa, from which t6wn a railroad
runs to Bucharest. The German
army headquarters staff announced
yesterday that German and Bulga-
rian troops had stormed seven of the
Turtugai works, including the ar-
mored batteries of the position.
