TI.- Times is becoming Interested in
good roads, as the following will show:

this fall and winter."

marks: "Those who are reading from

tice that most of the land is being pur-
chased by speculators, men who do not
intend to live on the land but buy it
to sell or lease at some future date.
This is sure to retard tba development
of the country."

Npwi sings Its song of praise. And
yet neither theKaty nor Choctaw will
build a decent depot iu the town.

of pleasure not only to Tahlequah
people In attendance but especially go
to the new members of the faculty who
