ENID, Okla., Dec. 17.—That the ar-
guments in the famous Sapulpa-Bris-
ti)w figth for the county seat <>f Creek
county will be made In this city some-
time during the next month was tho
announcement made yesterday after-
noon by Charles 11. l'arker. acting un-
der an appointment of the supreme
court as referee In the matter.
Xo county fleat battle waged in tho
entire state proved of such state-wide
interest ax tin- (.'reek county fight.
Both towns are determined and rep-
resented by an eminent array of at-
torneys they will light the case to
the high en t court. There ®ls little
doubt that the decision of the referee
w ill not be accepted as final.
Testimony in the case was taken
last spring ami Ktimmtf at different
points in the eastern p.irt of the
state. The record Is a volgpnlnous
one and the attorneys have not yet
submitted their briefs but they have
given notice that they will be sent
here within e short time.
The testimony In the case was hiKh-
ly sensational ami attracted interest
throughout this section of the country.
There were 5harges of wholesale fraud
In the election and one man was mur-
dered In Kiefer, a small oil town three
miles south of Sapulpa. It was alleg-
ed that excitement was so high in that
town that one dare not express his
sentiments in regard to the contending
cities without endangering his life.
It was also charged that booze flow-
ed freely on election day and that pre-
vious to the election at a rally in
Kiefer county L. B. Jackson and County
Judge Davis made a tour of the different
Joints in Kiefer and purchased liquor
encouraging the voters uf Kiefer to vote
for Sapulpa.
Subsequent to the election tho election
was contested and ouster proceedings
were brought against County Attorney
Jackson for failure to enforce the pro-^
hlbltory law. This latter action has
eaused some -notoriety and is still pen.l
lng in the courts.
SherlfT King was suspended for failure
to enforce tho prohibitory law and was
]. t r bound over to tho district court to
i nswer a felony charge in connection
with allowing th Joints to operate con-
trary to law. fie was acquitted a Short
time ago.
Attorneys of Oklahoma City Muskonee
and Sapuipa are Interested In the caso
end it is being strongly contested. After
the decision of Keterce Barker It will be
appealed to the supreme court for a do-
cision.
ENID, Gteia., Dec. 1*—The following
ppeared in the Enid Eagle as a wel-
14A*' tu people of Guthrie who attended
he .Enid Live Stock show.
HERE'S TO GUTHRIE.
Thfc Eagle voices the sentiment ot
every man, woman and child in this city
*hen It says to the citizens of Guthrie
miing over on a special train
Wednesday morning to attend the stoeu
show and evidence their appreciation ot
Enid's enterprise in offering the people
of Oklahoma the greatest live stork ex-
hibition 'In <$!i. world, that Guthrie's
spirit on this occasion Is thoroughly
prized by cur citizenship. In fact, were
It possible to say more in praise of th
true loyalty to Oklahoma and the friend-
ship displayed by the sister city. It would
be said.
Guthrie is a good town, a mighty good
town. It has come through a lot hard
luck and hard knocks to a commandlnR
position In Oklahoma and will remain
there. No city In the state has bad as j
much opposition to contend with as Guth- j
rle. hence none Is deserving of as great
credit for what has been accomplished.
During the last four years when It wan
predicted In many rpiarters that Guthrie
would certainly decline because of the
rapid rise of a rival city so close nn tne
south, the capital has kept right on
forging ahead, never taking a backward
step, always pushing aside seemingly
Insurmountable difficulties, until It lias
deservedly won the admiration of Okla-
homa for pluck and courage. Today the
battle is won. Guthrie will always be
one of the big cities of a great state
and ber citizenship has a right to be
proud of Its achievements.
A neighborly feeliiiK has been main-
tained between Enid and Guthrie during
all the years of the rapid development
of the two cities. It has been with more
than ordinary interest that the people ot
the enpltal city have watched the found-
ing of the metropolis of northern Okla-
homa which began lis growth four years
after the capital city had started and so
soon took a place In the front rank of
Oklahoma cities Enid's growth has
been an Inspiration to Guthrie. There
has been none of that bitter rivalry be-
tween the two cities which has unfor-
tunntely marked and marred the develop-
ment of other rival commercial centers
the other hand, there has always
been mutual Interest and felicitation at
each other's forward steps. And that
spirit should be maintained from now
on through many years of prosperftf
and advancement.
Enid should turn out In large numbers
to greet the visitors when they arrive
here tomorrow morning and let them
know In tinmlstabable form bow thoro-
ughly their coming is appreciate^ here.
Give tlio visitors a greeting worthy of
their splendid spirit, worthy of the city]
they are honoring and worthy of the
great stock show they are coming to
reo. Bet Wednesday be Guthrie s day at«j
the stock show and all Enid hotels to J
the Guthrie delegation.
The capital city lias set a splendid
example to other Oklahoma cities and

DENVER, Colo., Dee.,—It has become
known that the hotel keepers of the
West, following their annual meeting
here lat-t week, have decided upon a plan
to use cheaper cuts of meat. Economy

by tho statement that such meats ara
really more palatable and nutritious than
the mere expensive cuts Whether guests

remains to be found out.
According to a local hotel manager,
one of the hardest and most expensive
problems with which a hotelkeepert? has
to contend, is the putting to use of the
cheaper cfuts of meat, such as the shoul-
