Norinan'8 Proclamation.
The proclamation published in last
weeks paper declaring Norman a
city of the first class and calling for
a city election caused a number of
the legal luminaries in Norman to
put on exhibition their legal talent
by falling on to the proclamation
and pronouncing it void and that
another proclamation would have to
be issued before Norman could have
a legal city election as a city of the
first class. B. F. Williams, city at-
torney, and C. W. Brewer expressed
themselves as believing the procla-
mation void and county attorney
Wolf pronounced it "the most redicu-
lous thing he ever read" and A. W.
Fisher was in favor of calling a
mass meeting to have the governor
issue a new proclamation. The fail-
ure to mention anything in procla-
mation about the election of school
directors seemed to be the thing,
that the legal talent above mention-
ed, deemed the oversight rendering
proclamation void. As W. M. Newell
went to Guthrie with the Norman
citizens to secure the issuance of
proclamation he was held in a meas-
ure responsible for the legality of
proclamation and to have proclama-
tion attacked by the distinguished

All Doctors have tried to cure CAT-
AIIUH by the use of powders, acid
gases, inhalers and drugs in past*
fqrm. Their powders dry up the mu-
; cous membranes causing them to crack
open and bleed. The powerful aeidn
used in the inhalers have entirely eat-
| en away the same membranes that
their makers have aimed to cure, while
pastes and oinlmentB cannot reach the
disease. An old and experienced prac-
titioner who has for many years made
a close study and specially of the treat-
ment of CATARRH, has at last per-
fected a Treatment which when faith-
fully used, not only relieves at once,
but permanently cures CATARRH, by
removing the cause, stopping the dis-
charges, and curing all inflammation.
It is the only remedy known to science
that actually reaches the afflicted

known as "SNUFFLES the GUARAN-
TEED CAT5VKKH CURE'' and is sold
at the extremely low price of Una Dol-
lar, each package containing internal
aud external medicine suffic ient for a
full month's treatment and every thing
necessary to its perfect use.
"SNUFFLES"' is the only perfect

now recognized as the only safe and

disgusting disease. It cures all ittflam-

Body Taken Up
Last Monday the body of Henry
Dean was taken up for the purpose of
examination, at the instance of his
sisters who were not satislied as to
the cause of his sudden death. After
his death it was discovered that all
his property had been willed to his
nephew at whose home he died and
this increased suspicion. The old
man left Norman Friday to go to the
home of his nephew's live miles east
of Norman and that night was taken
sick, dying the following evening
Saturday afternoon the nephew came
to town to see a doctor and get some
medicine. Dr. Abel wrote a pre-
scription, and from what the nephew
stated thought the old man was taken
down sick from an attack of pneu-
monia.Late Saturday night Dr Abel
was called to go out and see the old
man and found him dying. His lungs
were congested which might have
happened from an attack of pneu-
monia: but also might have been
brought about by other causes. Drs.
Hamilton, Abel and coroner's jury
went to the cemetry last Monday and
held an autopsy on the body and took
out stomach to hayecontents examin-
ed to ascertain if the old man had
been given anything likely to produce
death. The result of the inquest
will be made known today when coro-
nor's jury meets again. The old man
was a great sufferer from asthma, we
are informed and he was getting
quite feeble from age and his death
from an acute attack of pneumonia
iu so short a time was possible and
we are inclined to think this is about
all the autopsy will show. The will
he made is the most suspicious thing.
He made his home with his daughter
n Norman and not with his nephew
City Election-
The citizens of Norman have not
made any demonstration of interest
in the coming city election: but a few
would lie candidates are beginning to
show interest. It is very likely when
it becomes known to the citizens that
certain men are candidates interest
in the city election will be aroused.
That the city affairs of Norman have
in the past been managed in a very
bunglesome manner cannot be suc-
cessfully contradicted. That this has
been due iu a great measure to men
lllling the city offices who did not
have the time to spare from their
private business to give the affairs
of the city the necessary thought and
attention it should have from its city
officers. A man to make a good and
effic cut. city officer needs to familiar-
ize himself with every detail of the
business of the city and understand
same as lie understands the details
of his own p ivate business. There is
plenty of hard work and little honor
in a city office at best even when
officer discharges the trust imposed
in him well and the man who tbinkg
hecan evade the work and reap-any
honor is deceiving himself for it is an
impossibility If he cannot, and
knows he cannot give the affairs of
the city his diligent attention lie
would be better off and so would th •
city if such a man would let a city
office alone and assist in electing
some mat! who would look after the
affairs of the city in the interests of
the city
