One of tbe decissions cited by the
brokers and the hundreds of persons
who were successful In drawing claims,
but have been offering them for sale
contrary to law. For some weeks an
extensive business has been done by
real estate men in the relinquishment
business. While it is known to be a
violation of tbe law technically to
speculate in relinquishments, prece-
dent has made the law more honored
in the breach than in the observation.
But in the new country the Luslness
has been carried on so openiy, part les
iistingtheir relinquishments thesame
as tbougli they owned tbe fee, instead
of an equity, that the matter has been
called to attention of the department,
with the result the inspectors have
been ordered to investigate.
Mother
“ My mother was troubled with
consumption for many years. At
last she was given up to die. Then
she tried Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,
and waa speedily cured.’’
D. P. Jolly, Avoca, N. Y.
No matter how hard
your cough or how long
you have had it, Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral is the
best tning you can take.
It’s too risky to wait
until you have consump-
tion. If you are coughing
today, get a bottle of
Cheriy Pectoral at once.

Revival Meeting.
The meetings at the Methodist
church are moving on nicely. Several
people have been at the alter for prayer
and aome have accepted Ralvation
through Christ. The congregations
have been good but there is room for
more people than have yet attended
the me 'tings and we cordially Invite
the people of Perkins to attend. We
have nothing sensational or unique
to offer as an attraction; we are inter-
ested in other and more Important
things. Rev. Freeland is a straight
gospel preacher. He believes that tbe
"Word of God is tbe sword of the
Snirit.” He tries to tell the story of
the cross, and of salvation in tbe
language of Christ and the Apostles,
and while this is an old stcry yet It Is
ever new to all who need a Savior.

that proper inquiry he made to ascer-
tain whether the United States malls
arc being used for the distribution of
such circulars, in order tiiat, if the .
are, the Postmaster General’s alt n
tion may be called to the fact with
view to his depriving the offenders o
the use of the mails.
There is a statute of the United
States which not only makes it an
offense to use the mails for purposes
of deception and fraud, hut which al-
so lodges in the Postmaster General
absolute power to deprive any one ao
offending of all use of the mails. This
was done in the case of a man named
Cummings in Oklahoma, who under-
took to use the mails for the distri-
bution of circulars and the carrying
on of correspondence in futheranoe ot
a device to defraud in connection with
the recent opening of the Kiowa lands
in Oklahoma.
The Ser—lsrr nt the Inferior is also

to believe that Secretary Hitchcock
may exert this authority and remove
