Fa*ms About Ahiikh.—George CSi 1>-
f on has land bought two years ago at
$3 an aero which yielded more than
half a bale of cotton an aerQ this year
paying him more than $0 an acre rent
as his fourth. Joe Young made twelve
bales of cotton off twelve measured
acre** He holds his land at 920 an
acre and it yields Sis an aere. worth of
crops. \V. F. Merrill bought land last
spring at 820 an acre and mudc $30 an

year. A farm near Asher sold a month
ago for $1,200 on which 81,200 worth
of products was raised this year.
Thk Hkwahds foh Carey. —There
were rewards aggregating §5,000 on
liert Casey's head, and these will be
paid to Deputies Hudson and LocUett,
who killed him and Jim Sims in the
battle at Cleo Springs. It was a hand
to hand tight over the camp ti re,' ten
shots being fired in the space of a min-
ute and with the parties within four
feet of each other. When Sims pulled
his revolver the trigger refused to work
and this won the fight for the officers.
City Not Respoksiiile.—The per-
sonal damage suit of Mrs. Cora A.
Richardson, of Oklahoma City, against
the City of Tulsa for $25,000 was dis-
missed without formal trial. The case
was practically settled by a decision
of Judge Joseph A. Gill at Vinita last
summer, wherein the opinion was
handed down that under the statutes
of Arkansas in force in Indian Terri-
tory, inforporated towns are not liable
for personal damages sustained.
Deputy Marshals Complain.—-Dep-
uty United States marshals of the two
territories are making an* effort in
Washington to abolish the custom of
surrendering one fourth of their earn-
ings to the treasury. l'rior to the
marshal receiving a fixed salary, his
compensation was one fourth of the
deputies' earnings. After he was
placed on a fixed salary, the one-fourth
was still deducted and turned into the
treasury.
Explosion at a Compress.—A steam
pipe exploded at the Sapulpa steam
cotton compress, ruptured one of the
boilers and destroyed property to the
extent of S2,000. Several of the em-
ployes were injured but none was
killed. The Sapulpa compress is opera-
ted by the Frisco System and prepared
for shipment the cotton ginneel along
the Frisco in Oklahoma, Texas and
Indian Territory.
Rrick Blocks at Milburn.—It is
authentically stated that the grading
crews will begin at Milburn about De-
cember 1st and work south on the line
to Denison. Under the spirit of this
and other favorable influences, the
architects are making plans for at
least three brick buildings to be erected
in Milburn at the very earliest possible
time.
Been Missing a Week.—J. W. Dun-
ham, a substantial farmer of Pottawat-
omie county, is reported missing and
his whereabouts are much of a mystery
to his family and friends who are con-
siderably alarmed about him. Mr.
Dunham has been missing from home
a week or more. He had a team and
$50 in money when he left home.
Transeer in Schools.—William It.
Dew, superintendent of Arapahoe In-
dian school, Oklahoma, has been trans-
ferred to superintendent of Wind River
school, on Shoshone Indian reservation,
Wyo., in place of George W. Meyer,
transferred to Arapahoe.
Cherokee Legislature.—This body
convened at Tahlequah on November
3. Important measures will be passed
upon. A supplemental treaty with the
United States is necessary to provide
for the disposition of the public build-
ings and moneys. The only office of
any importance to be filled by this ses-
sion is that of member of the national
board of education and already thirty
aspirants are in the race for the place
Fire at Wai.tehs. — A row of frame
buildings in the new town of Walters
has burned. Origin of lire unknown.
Young Cotton Pickers. —Artie, the
little 8-year-old daughter of Ii. A. Kel-
lar, of Glencoe, picked seventy-seven
pounds of cotton in one day. On the
same day his little son, 12vert, who
will be six years old in December,
picked fifty-nine pounds of cotton.
Erick Has a Bank.—The Citizens'
Bank of Erick, with a capital stock of
35,000 has been chartered. The incor-
porators are E. lv. Thurmond, and O.
K. Thurmond, of Sayre, J. l\ Thur-
mond, of Elk City, and H. 1 . Dewey,
of Erick. *
Five New Banks—Charters have
been issued for live new banks, viz.:
Bank of Commerce, of Shawnee, with

SI 0,000.
Noted Outi.\w Killed.—Bert Casey,
the noted outlaw, and Jiiu Sims a
member of the Casey gang, were killed
near Cleo by Deputy Fred Hudson and
Ed Lockert, of Weatherford. Hudson
had been close to Casey for six weeks.
| Contract Orchards Not Permit-
ted.—The interior department has de-
| cided not to permit the planting of
' commercial orchards under lease oi
contract to cultivate by nursery com-
panies in the Cherokee nation. The
department bases its refusal upon the
lack of precedent in such matters. The
action practically limits the planting
of orchards in the Cherokee nation to
the resources of individuals And will
circumscribe the orchard area very
much for some time to come.
Take Two or Three Years.—There
are 7,000,000 acres of land in the Choc-
taw nation to be divided among 20,000
Indian citizens, and it is estimated that
it will take from three to four years,
and possibly longer to complete the al-
lotments in detail. It lis predicted by
the members of the Dawes commission
that on the first day of February, the
first day the land office opens, there will
be something like 3,000people in Atoka
clamoring for allotment.
Mission Conference.-—The Mission
conference of the African Methodist
church held a session at South McAles-
ter, Bishop Salter presiding. There
are sixty-five charges in the conference
and five presiding elders' districts.
The conference passed favorably on
the character of all the traveling
elders. The reports from the various
charges show a growth in membership
and an increase in benevolent collec-
tions during the conference year.
Stages Discontinued.—The work of
constructing the Ozark & Cherokee
Central railroad has advanced to such
a state that the old-time stage line
from Fort Gibson to Tahlequah was
ordered discontinued on November 10,
after which mail will go by way of
Melvin on the new rail mad to Tahle-
quah. This stage line has been in op-
eration for many years and is famous
for the bad i?ouds ov *r which it has
been operated.
A Homesteader Shot.—As a result
of the prolonged war being waged be-
tween the cattlemen and homesteaders
in Western Oklahoma, another murder
has been committed. G. W. Lane, a
homesteader was called to his door
and shot dead, the murder occurring
near Shirley, in Dewey county. A cat-
tleman named John Joy has been ar-
rested charged with complicity in the
crime.
Proud op School House.—Cordell is
building u school house 04 by 70 feet
in size; two stories high. The walls
are of manufactured stone made in
Cordell. The school grounds are
worthy of the best as there are none
prettier.
Fight in High School.—A teacher
in the Oklahoma City high school is re-
ported to have angrily assaulted a boj';
and ordered him to leave the building,
after some larger pupils had interfered.
Texas Cattlemen.—They arc en-
raged about their cattle being driven
out of Indian Territory because they
refused to pay tribal taxes and have
armed their men for trouble.
Llnb Office Building.—The Atoka
land office building lias been contracted
for. It is to be a two story brick, 50
by 100 feet, and to be ready for use by
February 1.
Watonga Water Works.—That
town is to vote on November 25 on pro-
viding $16,000 for the construction of a
water works system.
State Dinners.—At the first of a
series of "state dinners" to be given at
the executive mansion Governor and
Mrs. Ferguson entertained the territo-
rial officers and their wives at a six
o'clock dinner. The event is reported
as having been a brilliant social func-
tion in every way.

Katy brakeman whose home is iu Coal-
gate, was fatally injured while un-
coupling a train, lie had trouble with
the air brake and got caught between
the bumpers and was crushed.
Cotton Cut Short. — Heavy rains
Ml about Ardmore for thirty hours
doing great damage to late cotton
crops. \ alleys are overflooded and
persons living in the lowlands have
been forced to seek shelter on higher
ground. Some cattle are reported
drowned. Passenger trains are run-
ning irregularly. Business in interior
towns is practically suspended.
May Locate. —Ralph Ingalls, son of
the Kansas senator, visited Guthrie
and gossip started to the effect that he
is thinking of locating there.
Chary'* First Fair.—At the first
fair held at Geary, the exhibits in the
various departments were claimed to
be the equal « f any fair in the states.
The races were one of the big features,
(•jvurnor Ferguson was an interesting
and interested spectator. The attend-
ance was about 2,500.
Work for Attorneys.—Three claim-
ants to the position « f governor of the
Choctaw nation, T. W. Hunter, Green
MeCurtaii' and J. W. Dukes, are send-
ing attorneys to Washington to fur-
their claims.
TRUST WINS AGAIN
INDIANA MANUFACTURERS PUSH-
ED TO THE WALL.
How the Great Billion-Dollar Steel i
Giant, Aided by the Protective Tar- j
iff, Defies Competition—A Good Ob-
ject Lesson.
We are "up against it," "it," being,
of course, tho trusts, which are charg-
ing exorbitant prices tor their prod-
ucts and will not permit us to pur-
chase goods outside of their dominion.
We cannot beat tin m. They are the
"whole push," while their party—that
is the Republican party—is in power.
Some wise Guys In Indiana thought
they could beat the tariff-trust com-
bination. They figured out the great
profits to be made by manufacturing
and selling wire, wire nails, etc., at
present prices. They saw visions of
great wealth right in front of them.
They built a mill at Kokomo, Indiana,
which cost them nearly $1,000,000.
They got ready a few weeks ago to
manufacture—that is, they thought
they were ready. They then discov-
ered that there is in this country an
organization called the United States
Steel Corporation and that it is in
business and politics on its own ac-
count, and runs a few hundred mills
and custom houses, and, through its
coal and ore mines, assists the Al-
mighty in running the universe. Inci-
dentally it controls the output of steel
billets and will not sell them except at
exorbitant prices.
But these Hoosler Guys were not
"easy marks." They did more figur-
ing and investigating and concluded
tnat they could buy steel billets in Bel-
gium or Germany, pay the duty and
freight on them and lay them down at
their mill for $2 per ton less than
the price demanded by the Steel Trust.
Proud of their resourcefulness and in-
dependence of the stee! octupus they
parted with more of their good money.
Pride goeth before a fall.
They bought 20,000 tons of billets
at $18 per ton. They expected to pay
a duty of $6.72 per ton, or $134,000
on the lot. They expected this lot of
ulllets would last them three months.
At this rate they figured their tariff
charges on billets at $537,000 a year.
the Importers and of the rolling mills
who have purchased foreign billets, is
the penalty for alleged undervalua-
tions, which In some cases would
reach a very large sum as compared
with the advance of the rate of duty.
In itself in certain territory the higher
rate of duty on billets would not cut
IT Importations."
The penalty is "an additional duty
of one per cent of the total appraised
value thereof for each one per cent
that such appraised value exceeds the
*alue declared in the entry." This
means that if the appraised value is
raised from $18 to $24 per ton, the im-
porters must pay a penalty of $8 per
ton in addition to the dtl.V of $8.96.
Thus their billets will cost them
$34.96 a ton, plus about $6 freight, or
a total of over $40.
The Iron Age of Oct. 23 tells us that
the penalty for undervaluations is
being collected even when the apprais-
ed value does not exceed the declared
value though to affect the ordinary
rate of duty. It cites one case where
an invoice of steel blooms was raised
from seventy-four to eighty-seven and
a half marks per ton, which caused a
penalty of 18 per cent to be put oh
without affecting the ordinary duty of
.3 of a cent per pound. In another
case an invoice of billets was raised
from 76.36 to 97 marks, inflicting a
penalty of 27 per cent on the apprais-
ed value. The Iron Age says that
some shipments are Invoiced as low
as sixty-five marks, or $15.60 per ton.
In view of the above circumstances,
some steel mill property in Kokomo
is for sale cheap, and some blooming
chumps who are poorer and sadder, if
not wiser, are talking less about pros-
perity and more abo>it trust despotism
and anarchy.
Brothers Hanna, Shaw and Bever-
idge will now tell us of the blessings
of protection and economies of indus-
trial combinations.
BYRON W. HOLT.
Who Owns the Trusts?
Senator Foraker as a trust lawyer
is earning his fee.
In the boldness and buoyancy with
which he champions the cause of
combines he surpasses even the trust
magnates themselves.
In a recent speech Senator Foraker
said:
"Mechanics, clerks and the class

"Woodman, spare that tree!
Touch not a single bough;
In youth it sheltered me.
And I'll protect it now."
But they were not politicians and
they expected to get this amount, and
more, too, back from the people who
would buy wire and nails. They rais-
ed $134,000, and had it ready to pay
the duty on the billets when they
l eached the custom house at Philadel-
phia. Alas, it was not enough. They
were foiled again by the Steel Trust.
The collector had gotten some tips
from "it,"—that is his master—and
he had made a "new ruling." He
said that the rate of duty on steel bil-
lets valued above one cent per pound
($22.40 per ton) was $S.96 instead of
$6.72.
"But," said the wise Guys from Ko-
komo, as a new ray of hope lighted up
their blank features, "we only paid
$18 a ton for these billets."
Whereat the Steel Trust customs
official smiled and said: "Yes, yes,
but the law permits us to fix the duty
on the actual market value of the bil-
lets in the markets of the country
from which the same has been import-
ed. The German manufacturers who,
like ours, are highly protected, have,
as you should have known, two prices
for their billets;one for their domestic
customers, and a very much lower
price for export. We have been told
to disregard the export price, which
you paid, and to collect duty on the
German domestic price, which is
about $24 per ton. Cough up $178,200
it you want your billets."
The would-be manufacturers of Ko-
komo were dazed. Their vision of
wealth was fast vanishing. They ap-
pealed from the decision of tho Col-
let tor to the Board of General Ap-
praisers. This board i? collecting tes-
timony and may announce its decision
in a few months.
The Iron Age of October 10, tells us
that "the difficulties over the duty on
steel billets have stopped all negotia-
tions for foreign steel for the pres-
ent." It gives this additional explana-
tion:
"Probably the most serious feature
of the matter front the standpoint of
which may be called the thrifty, are
generally speaking the largest holders
of the securities of the great trust
corporations. They would not welcome
hostile legislation, nor would it be to
their best interests?"
Surely this is about the limit.
If mechanics and clerks are the
largest holders of trust stocks, how
does it happen that they remain me-
chanics and clerks, while the mag-
nates at the head of the trusts—the
small holders, we presume—wax rich
and impudent?
If mechanics and clerks are the
largest holders, where did the Mor-
gans and the Rockefellers "get it?"
Possibly the senator has confused
the trust with snipe hunting, and
meant to say that mechanics and
clerks are the largest holders of the
bag.—St. Paul Dally News.
Islands Not Wanted.
The Danish Congress has voted
against the sale of the West Indian
islands to Uncle Sam. This Is a God-
send to the people of the Jnited States
as the price was high and the islands
would be a constant expense. Even
our bargain counter purchase of the
Philippines has turned out a poor
investment, having so far cost nearly
$100,000,000 a year, which even if all
we sell to them was profit would not
pay interest on the investment.

ALMOST A MIRACLE.
Case No. 49,763 — Mrs. M. Isted, of
1207 Strand street, Galveston, Tex.,
who is proprietor of a boarding house
at that address, numbering among
her boarders a dozen medical stu-
dents, says: "I caught cold during the
flood of September, 1900, and it set-
tled in my kidneys. Despite the fact
that I tried all kinds of medicines and
was under the care of physicians, the
excruciating twinges and dull aching
across the small of my back refused
to leave, and trouble with the kidney
secretions began to set in. From
then, ordinary Anglo-Saxon fails to
describe the unnoyanco and suffering
1 endured. The fearful pain through
my body, loss of appetite, loss of
sleep, consequent loss of energy,
and, finally. Indication of complete
dissolution compelled me, from sheer
agony and pain, to either He on the
floor and scream, or forced me into
spasms. On such occasions my hus-
band called in a physician, whoso mor-
phine treatment relieved me tempo-
rarily. I grew weaker and thinner,and
so run down physically that nothing
was left but skin and bone. All my
friends, acquaintances and neighbors
knew about my critical condition, and
on one occasion I was reported dead
and they came to see my corpse. At
last the doctors attending me held a
consultation and agreed that if I did
not undergo an operation 1 could not
live. Preparations were made, a
room selected at the city hospital, and
they even went so far as to have the
carriage brought to the door to carry
me there. I don't know why, but
something told me not to go, and I ab-
solutely refused. Now I want the
reader to grasp every word of the fol-
lowing: A friend of ours, a Mr. Mc-
Gaund, knowing that my kidneys
were the real cause of the entire
trouble, brought a box of Doan's Kid-
ney Pills to the house, and requested
me to give them a trial. I had taken
so much medicine that 1 was more
than discouraged, and had little, if
any, faith in any pVeparatlon. How-
ever, I reasoned if they did not do me
good they could not possibly make me
worse, so I began the treatment. After
the third dose, I felt something dart
across me like a flash of lightning,
and from that moment I began to im-
prove. The pain in my back and kid-
neys positively disappeared, the kid-
ney secretions became free and nat-
ural. At present I rest and sleep well,
my appetite is good, my weight bas
increased from 118 to 155 pounds,
and my flesh is firm and solid. My
friends actually marvel at the change
in my appearance. Words cannot ex-
press my .n feelings. I am not put-
ting it too strongly when 1 say I have
been raised from the dead. I am sat-
isfied that had it not been for Doan's
Kidney Pills, taken when they were,
1 would have been either lying in the
Lake View Cemetery, or an invalid for
the balance of my lite. I will be only
too pleased to give minuter particu-
lars of my casa to any one calling on
me, not, of course, out of idle curios-
ity, but if they really have kidney
complaint and want to know what
course to pursue to get relief."

ney medicine which cured Mrs. Isted
