B.C. MARTIN
One year ago the Register was
revived out of the wreck of a
former paper and the outfit
which was in pretty bad condi-
tion was gathered to gether and
a paper issued. The office had
been closed for nine months and
the material, type, engine,
presses and other material had
seen subjected to abuse. The
auilding had been broken into
and the work of the first few
weeks was principally to get
things together. The paper met
encouragement from most people
altho a few knockers appeared
even at first. We remember
with amusement that several
ittle boys ventured in and
cautiously warned us that the
last two editors of this paper had
died. Even some of the older
people tried to make us believe
the paper had a hoodoo. Then
ater on when we decided to
change the name of this paper
we found some who wished that
three editors had died instead of
two, and so forth.
Well the year has had it’s
sorrows and it’s joys but we are
glad for the year. W e have
made advances and have taken
a step or two forward and we
are egotistical enough to say that
we believe Delaware has the best
paper, for the size of the town,
inlOklahoma. We have some men
in Delaware who will not take
the paper, some will not adver-
tise but on the whole the people
of Delaware are alive, alert and
charitable. They are, most of
them, willing to over look mis-
takes and look at the general
trend instead of a little error now
and then.
We are glad we are here and
are proud of Delaware. Let’s all
forget the unkind, unpleasant
things and look forward to a
better year than ever. Honest
now you need us and we need
you.
The Demon oi Woe,
Want and Poverty
There is no poetry in a fire
that destroys. There is no
warmth of good cheer in a blaz-
ing house. Only misery and
want and woe can echo from
homes destroyed, from business
houses wrecked, from savings
vanished via the fire route.
And fires are the fruits of
human acts of commission and
omission. They do not start of
their own accord. They must
always have a human being for
a partner!
This being the case, why not
cultivate a little foresight? Why
not keep your premises clear of
trash, of litter, of waste and such
things that are excellent fire
food?
When properly curbed and cir-
cumscribed, a cheering fire is a
thing that makes a most excellent
servant, contributing greatly to
the comforts of man. But to
keep fire a servant requires con-
stant and unceasing vigil. While
a good servant it is a most
exacting master!
Are you doing your full share
toward preventing fires? If you
are you merit the thanks of your
neighbors. Every time a house
is destroyed your neighbors must
stand their full part of the fire
insurance you may collect.

advantage of the opportunities than in
any other section in America.

serving on the following committees in
the legislature; House Journal; Judi-
ciary; Criminal Jurisprudence; Educa-
tion; Geological Survey; Relation to
the Five Civilized Tribes; Investigation
of Judicial and Executive Departments

for Nowata county’s representative.

south of Massad Bros. ’ store, on

vited to attend.
Stop my Paper
Some fellows think that if they
stop the paper that it sure will
go under. A fellow went into
the New York Tribune office
many years ago and told Horace
Greeley who was then editor that
he had come in to “stop the
Tribune.” Horace looked him
over and asked him if he had
carefully considered the proposi-
tion and how many men it would
throw out o f work and how
many people would suffer if he
“stopped the Tribune.” The
fellow didn’t see the point for
years afterward. The fellow
who stops the paper generally
don’t see very far.
McCracken Will Start
Work on Assessments
Nowata Truth:    John Me- j
Cracken announced this morning
that he would appoint his depu-
ties in a few days and instruct
them to start work at once on the
assessment of property in their
respective districts. The asses-
sor has been waiting for some
time for the senate to take action
on the bill now before that body
changing the method of making
the assessment but he has de-
cided to follow the lead of other
counties and start assessors at
work. The bill in question is on
call in the senate and will prob-
ably be acted upon soon.
