In addition the oil exchange and
the armored fort at Oilton have gone
: r d all of the iarge road houses, those
festering places of lawlessness, have
been destroyed as - result of the
sheriff's efforts.
Practically all of the joints and or-
l -mired gambling places and bad re-
sorta have been closed by the sheriff
and there have bee": more than 10C>
convietttMS of violating the liquor
. ws in irambling cases.
Such a record ha? never been
known V efore in ary county, much
V-ss in Creek.
The courts of this county have be*n
property served as a result of Sbenf:
Woofter's eorts ar.d ♦ no favoritism
has been shown in any respect.

to buy him off by oiTers of fabulous
