A Star Rig

fy
Tie Mid Co Petroleum company
moved in overland from Blackwell a
big Star rig, Monday evening, for a
teat on the southwest corner of the
Tost farm, ne 22 23-2 west, a half rosle
east of the Hoover test. They spudded
Wednesday afternoon. This Star
I rig is CiliJiltile of going 1800 feet the
[ contractor claims, but It is likely the
' teat is to be to the 1030 feet Sand for
J the big gas. According to the Yost
s ease this test had to be spudded by the
28th of this month.
Lahoma I; Garber 13
The Sentinel's sport-editor was not
here Sunday to witness the game
between Lahoma and the Garber Oilers
which was won by the latter by a score
of 13 to 1.
We understand that this team from
the west side of the country put up an
alibi that they didn't have their reg-
ular pitcher und that they lost the
game by the decisions of the umpire—
L. O. Steenrod of Waukomis. In front
of us we have the score board of the
game and see only two safe hits they 1
gathered off of Cramer in the eight in-
ning and none off o' F Reiger who
pitched the ninth. Lahoma cau'i ex
pect to win a game off of two hits
surely.
Cramer struck out eleven men, al-
lowed two hits, and didn't hit abater
or give ^ base on balls, F. Reiger
walked the first up The Garber slug-
gers gathered fourteen safe ones off of
Lahoma's pitcher who walked two, hit
three, and struck out four.
The eighth frame, aud last bat for
Garber, shows nine runs and ten hits
for the Oilers. One was a home run
by Wilmont, three-base hits by South-
wick and Wells, a two-base hit by
Wells, two singles by Ebert, aud a
single each for the following: F. Rei-
ger, Umphriee, Cramer, and L. Reiger.
Lahoma boys have only one error
marked up agaiust them. Garber
made three errors, one of them let in
the only Lahoma run.

A Shower of Rain
We breathe a sigh of sweet relief.

It has been impossible for me to see
all the Republicans of Garfield county.
It is, therefore, necessary that I depend
to some extent upon my friends to say
a good word iu my behalf if they think
1 am worthy and will perform my duty
if nominated and elected connty attor-
ney. I do not ask any one to vote for
; me unless he believes I am both able
and conscientious in my work, and
that I shall make every effort within
my power to make Ua field county a
ciean place to live and where the rights
of men, wom«n and children will be
safeguarded from all who would at-
tempt lo wrong them. However, I do
ask every Republican to consider me
on my merits; that his judgment of
•me be as fair as he wgujd want mino
to be of him if he were In my piac„
atid 1 In his. I believe every Hepubli-
can who ktiOKs me will do that If
the Republicans will nom.nate and
elect me I shall not disappoint them.

county with all the ability I have and
treat everyone with courtesy and re.

the Republicans on August first. I
shall appreciate the vote and good
