The ChoFtifiee Democrat leads
off in an article on Ross and the
depository law nnd says that the
Republican editors are charging
- - the oounty two prices for print-
ing Did you know Demy that
the prices the republican editors
are getting have been taken from
fho price lists of the Guthrie
Leader and State Capital and
are the same prices as have been
given the democrat editors for
eight years past
The Democrat would be a poor
rate sheet to refcon prices from
considering the fact that at
Cherokee the newspapers are at
war and will do printing for
nothing rather than let a com-
petitator have it
Cf ray Gaptured:
Last year Geo Gfay was con-
victed in the district tourt of this
oounty on the charge of stealing
a team and was sentenced to one
jo'r in the penitentiary How-
fever Lu to-mwed from the Kan-
sas penilciH-y within about
two months after 1‘3 incarcera-
tion and all trace of him marf ost

learned of his being' near Drum- dres
mond this territfiry and on Wed-
nesday evening this week Gus
returned with Mr Gray in his
charge who will now have to re-
turn to the penitentiary and ser-
vo out his time
This is o-nly another evidence

I tell you about this thiug of
luok ltcomesto the fellow who
keeps the weeds cut down so it
can tied hub Luck sometimes
walks up and collars on idler but
t is more apt to nab the man who
ts busy doing the best he oau ali
the time Luok isn’t lying around
on the atreet allowing loafers to
nover it with whittling Neither
is it in a stream waiting for some
lazy fisherman to hook it Luck
generally goes hand in hand with
industry If you ait around Rnd
wait for luok to hand you a bag of
gold and ‘make you a rich man
you are pretty apt to end yotir
days iu a poor house A four
leaf clover will bring more lurk to
the busy fellow than it will to the
loafer It may seem a little lough
foreman to have his earnings all
swept from him at a single stroke
but it is better to have it lost than
never to have had it at all A
(mother thing luck isn't h L iiil

around and look fur it Go to
