We noticed recently in an ex-
change, that Bert Moss formerly of
city, but now living in Bartlesville,
I. T., was a victim of carbolic acid
explosion, but by prompt action in
applying remedies saved his face
from permanent disfigurement.
Berts many friends here hope that
the injury was a slight one.
Our winter weather so far except
for one week in November, has been
exceptionally mild, and there has
hardly been frost enough to stop
vegetation Grass is still green and
growing; roses have put out new
leaves, and violets are blooming out
of doors, etc., etc., but probably by
this time next week we will be sorry
wc said it and be forced to admit that
winter is indeed here.
W. C. Wallace, the new editor and
proprietor of the Braman Leader,
made his spiel to the public in the is-
sue of January 4, and outlines the
policy of the paper as independent,
a truly laudable ambition. The
Leader was good to look at and we
believe Brother Wallace will keep
the paper up to the high water mark
set by his predecessor, A. H. Knox,
and he certainly has our very best
wishes for his success in every am
bition.
J. T. Killaim an! wife, of Tower
Hill, III., arrived last week for a
visit with relatives and friends in
this city and viclnitv. Mr. Killaim
hunted up the junior editor of this
paper as he had a message from an
old Kansas friend who is now a pros-
perous banker in Tower Hill. The
gentleman is delighted with Kay
county and Blackwell and will make
this headquarters while he does a
bit of sightseeing and prospecting in
the southwest.
There Is one thing at least about
Bird McGuire that all must admire;
there is never any doubt how he
stands upon any proposition affecting
the people. His endorsement and
encouragement of Governor Frantz
in his efforts to secure a fair deal
from the railroads is characteristic
of his action on all similar occasions.
He is broad enough to see and ap-
prove a meritorious measure, no
matter who may be the author of it.

The rainfall in this county for the
month of November was 3,41 inches
an extraordinary total for a winter
month, and over two inches in ex-
cess of the normal. The maximum
temperature for the month was 54.6
‘and the minimum 35 7. The coldest
day was the 22 when we had 15 de-
grees above zero, and the warmest
day was 78 above on the 6th of the
month. It was a very mild winter
month only eleven out of the 30 days
showing freezing weather.
T. N. Athey, of Blackwell, Okla.,
has been appointed by Governor
Frantz as one of the Delegates to
. 'the Trans-Missouri Dry Farming
J Congress, to be held in Denver,
Colorado, January, 14-25, 1907.
Mr. Athey is one of our most pro-
gressive farmers, but lives in a
district that has not as yet found it
necessary to adopt dry farming
methods In fact the average
Bitter Creek farmer haB Buffered
moru from wet weather than from
dry. and is more interested in the
subject of tiling than in diy farm-
ing.
Delegate W. F. Hendricks, from
the western districtof Grant county
was here last Thursday afternoon,
on his way to Guthrie to attend the
convention. Mr. Hendricks is chair-
man of the committee, on agricul-
ture but thinks with us that one of
the most important duties of the
convention is the creating of an
equitable system of taxation for the
new state. It is undoubtly the most
important; matter that will confront
that convention, and if they frame
a just and equitable system, we
will overlook any and all mistakes
they may other wise make.
The Ponca City Courier last Sat-
urday. predicts the .appointment of
Claude B. Baker, as postmaster at
Ponca City to fill the vacancy oc-
casioned by the death of B S.
Barnes. Mr. Baker is a son-in-law
of Mr. Barnes, has been deputy
postmaster, later private secretary
to Hon. Bird S. McGuire. Mr.
Baker is territorial committeeman
from this county, and his appoint-
ment as postmaster will be highly
satisfactory to t he territorial organi-
zation: to the county orgaization and
to the patrons of the Penca office.
We congratulate him on his good
fortune.
The east side county exchanges have
republished an article from the
Ponca Courier, to the effect that
there is a movement on foot to di-
vide Kay county east and west
throwing Blackwell and Newkirk in
the north county with Blackwell at
the south side of county The article
also says that as far as learned
i Blackwell is not clamoring for such
a division. The brethren do us an
injustice as such a division would
suit us all right, lor as long as we
have to live in the same county with
Newkirk It don’t matter where in
the county we are located. The
county division matter is worrying a
whole lot of people more that it is
Blackwell.
Our druggists and merchants were
all pretty well prepared for the new
food law effective January 1st, and
had the most of their stuff properly
labe’ed before that time. Some
articles that had been on sale
were J withdrawn from the
market by the manufacturers, rather
than comply with the law. The
law will make little difference here
as the bulk of the stuff sold was
properly labeled even before the
passage of the law It is in the
cities where the cheapest grades of
goods are sold, that the new law
will have the most beneficial effect.
The Perry Republican tells of a
wonderful invention Relief is at
last offered for the thirsty of Kan-
sas and Indian territory. It comes
in a a plug similar to chewing tobac-
co, only yellowish in color and is
styled “beer plug.’1 Compact and
unobtrusive, it may be carried
through the dryest of “dry" towns
without rousing the suspicion of the
most watchful constable. Yet drop-
ped into pure water, the result is
four to six gallons of effervescent,
foam crowned amber liquid which
the state board of health has sam
pled and declared officially to have all
the qualities, good and bad, of the
liquor held heretofore only in keg.

FENCE, NOT A LITTLE. BUT LARGELY.

the same time, increasing
its value per acre.
Was there ever; will
there ever be a better
time to buy the fence you
need than right now ? VVe
think not. VVe have car-

There are some newspapers that

that are brilliant for a day or week
and then probably lapse into innocu-
ous desuetude for a time. The An-
