WASHINGTON NEWS
By John W. Flenner, Washington
Washington, It. F'oli. 24.—Sena-
tor Gore has accepted an invitation to
address the Virginia-Washington
chapter of the American Hankers' As-
sociation at a iian<|uet to he held hei'e
this week.
President Wilson has named the
following Oklahoma Postmasters:
John W. Bane, Loverene; J. P. Craw-
ford, Stonewall; Floyd I,. Swank, Nor-
man.
Attorney General McReynolds is
very anxious to name a United States
attorney for the Western district of
Oklahoma, to succeed N. H. Boardman,
removed. He has called upon Sena-
tors Gore and Owen to make an en-
dorsement.
Oklahoma should feel elated over the
able work of Congressman James >S.
Davenport before the Rivers and Har-
bors Committee of the House, as it
was through the efforts of Mr. Daven-
port that that portion of the Arkan-
sas river which flows in Oklahoma,
was included in the $164,700, recom-
mended by the committee to the
House, for the improvement of the
river in Arkansas and Oklahoma. Mr.
Davenport feels confident that he will
be able to retain the provision in the
bill until it becomes a law.
Indian Commissioner Sells has an-
nounced the appointment of the fol-
lowing additional Indian probate at-
torneys in Eastern Oklahoma: Alex.
Johnson, Oklahoma; Owen Owen, Bar-
tlesville; Jess L. Ballard, Grove; Judge
L. K. Pounders, Wilburton; and Joe
M. Lynch, Stilwell.
Congressman 1 >avenport has asked
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to compel railroads doing an inter-
state business to stop their trains a
sufficient length of time at the Okla-
homa, Kansas and Missouri state lines
to permit through passengers to pur-
chase tickets under the 2-cent rate,
and re-cheek their baggage. Under
the present system now in vogue a
through passenger is charged a full
3-cent fare if going from one state to
another. If the Interstate Commerce
Commission has no power to compel
the railroads to do as Mr. Davenport
suggests, he will introduce a bill in
Congress to compel them to stop their
trains at the state line.
Among the recent Oklahoma visit-
ors tn Washington were <i.sage Na-
tional Attorney P. A. Shinn, of Paw-
huska; Col J. W. Levely, Muskogee;
H. V. Poster, Bartlesville; J. J. Ma-
roney, and M. ('. French, Okmulgee;
Democratic National Committeeman
Bob Galbreath, arid Frank'Gillespie,
Tulsa; and United States Attorney I).
II. Liuebnugh, of Muskogee.
Congressman Davenport wants to
know why the $200,000 appropriated
by Congress last year has not been ex-
pended for the treatment of Indians
suffering from tuhurculosis, trachoma
and other kindred diseases, and as a
result of his inquiries, Indian Com-
missioner Sells has ordered a repre-
sentative of the Department to inves-
tigate the prevalence of the diseases
in Adair, Cherokee and Delaware coun-
ties. When the report is submitted
physicians will be named to treat In-
dians afflicted. At Mr. Davenport'.!
request a similar investigation is b1
ing made in the Osage Nation.
The Comptroller of the Currecy has
issued a charter to the First National
Bank of Fairland, Oklahoma, capital
ized at $25,000 to succeed the Bank
of Fairland.
Congressman Davenport has asked
the Post Office Department to estab-
lish the following new rural mail
routes in his district. Route No. 5, to
run east from Vinita, toward the Del-
aware county line; a new route out of
Ketchum into Delaware county; Route
4 out of Claremore northwest, and a
new route out of Nowata west. Alsc
a new route out of Delaware.
The House has passed a special bill
granting Kd S. Lane, of Craig coun-
ty, a pension of $24 per month. The
bill was introduced by Mr. Davenport.
Indian Commissioner Sells has let
the contract for the erection of the
Kiowa-Comanche Indian hospital at
Fort Sill, Okla., to W. I). Lovell, a
| Minneapolis contractor. His bid was
I $37,280.
| The Post Office Department has
| called on the Civil Service Commis-
sion to hold examinations to select
|eligibles for the postmasterships at
i the following Oklahoma towns: Wau-
| hilla.ii, Adair county; Big Cabin, Craig
county; Abbie, Woods county; Arthur,
Stephens county; Burton, Hughes
county; Dermis, Delaware county;
Garfield, Cherokee county.
TO ASK FRISCO TO PUT ON NEW
TRAIN
A new passenger train on the Frisco
leaving Chandler at 7 a. m., arriving
in Tulsa a couple of hours later and
'coming on to Claremore and then re-
turning to Tulsa, is sought by the
business men of Tulsa and Sapulpa
| and should be sought by the business
! men of Claremore, for such a train
] would be like unto the Coal Oil John-
nie, which is one of the best trains
: that passes through our city. A pe
tit ion of several hundred signers has
been secured at Sapulpa and thi citi
•/.ens of Tulsa are signing a like peti-
tion. It would he a good idea for the
citizens if Claremore to also :-hovv
their wishes in th> ..latter by a similar
1'l'titioJl.
IIA N DSOMELY ENTERTAIN El)
Mrs. Webb Littlefield and Mrs.
Walter W. Shaw entertained twen-
ty-four of their friends' at a seven
o'clock dinner at the Sequoyah Ho-
i tel Thursday night, in honor of Mrs.
Littletield's sister, Mrs. Stone, .if
of Kansas City, Mo.
After the dinner the guests repair-
ed to the Shaw home where the even-
1 ing was pleasantly spent by playing
: auction bridge, Mrs. A. L. Kates and
J. Fuge Flippin being awarded the
1 high scores.

WOULD NOT THIS HE A GOOD
INVESTMENT?
What Is more pretty than n town
filled with beautiful lawns? A hea.i-
tiful city is not otdy a princely adver
tisement to strangers and others v^lth-
in its gutes, but it adds to tho pleasure
and enjoyment of Its own inhabitants.
Right now is the time to begin the
necessary preparations to have beau-
tiful lawns the coming summer, and
the suggestion which is herewith set
forth, might be modified so as to fit
the occasion financially or otherwise.
A suggestion like this, at an outlay of,
say $150.00, would in my opinion be
'well spent and result in a general
improvement of nearly every lawn in
the city. Let the Commercial Club of-
fer a premium of $75.00 for the best
kept and prettiest lawn in Claremore
for the summer; a premium of $50.00
for the second best, and a premium of
$25.00 for the third; with the under-
standing that the judges would con-
sist of seven disinterested ladies to
be selected as follows: one each fro.11
the following towns: Inola, Chelsea,
Catoosa, Collinsville, Oolagah, Talala
and Foyil, these ladies to meet in
Claremore upon a date to be set by
the Commercial Club and inspect III
lawns and adjudge as to the

might file same with the county clerk

be a good investment from several
angles, and is open to better arrange-
ments or ideas of others who might
have a better plan. In a contest of
this kind I would not only donate a
reasonable amount to the Commercial
Club, but would also try my best to

better idea, let us hear from them.

TRIBUTE TO SENATOR GORE
Speech of Representative C. S.
Wortman, January 20, 1919.
Mr. Speaker, his Excellency, and Fel-
low Legislators:
On behalf of. the House, 1 second
the nomination of Honorable T, P.
Gore.
The marvelous success of our re-
markable senior senator is weighing
heavily upon the side of right in the
Nation-wide, world-wide struggle be-
tween democracy and plutocracy, (ap-
plause). Senator Gore, in many states
of this union has sung of Oklahoma's
air possessions, and has chanted thi
praises of the best constitution ever
penned by human hands. The re-
luctant eulogy of his political adver-
saries has been voiced by the Phila-
delphia North American in the ring-
ing request to this legislature: "Send
that blind man back to the United
States Senate." (applause).
In choosing him today, this legis-
lature reflects honor upon our com-
mon-wealth, and crowns the brow of
one who is a "Combination and a form
indeed where every god did seem to
set his seal to give the world assur-
ance of a man." Well and truly may
we say of him, as was said of the im-
mortal Henry Clay: "His civic laurels
I not yield in splendor to the bright-
est chaplet that ever bloomed upon n
warrior's brow." (applause).
.Senator Gore has taken the peo-
ple's side of every question. His po
itical influence is no longer circum
scribed by t he state of Oklahoma, nor
even by the United States, but like
the morning di um-beats, resounds
throughout the encircling globe. His
hands are clean, (applause). Hii
heart is pure and undefiled. (ap-
plause). His voice is the voice of
justice in public affairs, and will al-
ways be heard pleading for the ap-
plication of those eternal principals,
Equal rights to all, Special privil-
! ejres to none, (applause).
God speed the day when his teach-
ings and his doctrines will be known
and accepted by men, and become the
i universal creed of nations, and that
| the prayer of the creat Scottish bard
may at last be realized, "That man to
man, the world o'er shall brothers be
and'a' that." (applause).
the GAMBLING fever
In the March American Magazine
Hugh S. Fullerton writes a fascinat-
! ing article entitled "American Gam-
i bling and Gemhlers," in the course of
which he says:
j "I have heard much of the love of
gambling and the gambling fever,
j This is largely a myth. They do not
1 (ramble for love of the game, but
through love of money. Ninety-nine
out of every one hundred persons wh<
play at gambling games do so because
they need the money. The fever is tho
result of hope of winning, not of love
of the game. The other one of the
hundred is the type I refer to as a
'jrambler.' The true (rambler will
risk his last cent without a quiver,
and will pay for grains of corn as hard
as for hundreds of dollars. Money h is
little value or meaning to hiin. H •
wants to win."

M ETHOD1ST BROTHERHOOI)
HELD A WASHINGTON.
LINCOLN MEETING
The beautiful home of Dr. J, II.
Hayes, un Fourth Ktreet, was the
scene of a most enjoyable and inter
osting meeting of the Methodist
brotherhood of the M. E. Church, on
Friduy evening. A majority of the
members, together with their famil-
ies or lady friends and a few visit-
ors, were present.
As the meeting was held so closely
to the birthdays of those two great
men whose mimes have gone down
in the history of our great United
States, and of the world for that mai-
ter, as martyrs of their time, and will
ever be held in firm remembrance by
the patriotic citizens of the Union,
one as the father of a country of lib-
ertv-loving populace, the other as the
preserver of that nation from a siege
of internal strife, George .Washington
and Abraham Lincoln, the members
of the Brotherhood responded to roll
call, after the singing of several na-
tional airs, with a quotation from
one or the other, many excellent
phrases being repeated.
After roll call, the president, R. A.
Patton, in a few appropriate words,
introduced the first number of the
program, a paper by Dr. Kassmann,
on "General Washington," which was
in every sense a literary gem, the
speaker presenting her subject in an
excellent manner. "Abraham Lin-
coln, Before Becoming President,"
was the theme of a splendid talk by
J. .1. Connor.
At this juncture of the evening's
program, the president announced
that a rece -.s would be taken, during
which a delicious luncheon, sandwich-
es, salad, pickles, cheese sticks, cake
and coffee, was served. After lunch-
eon bad been enjoyed to the fullest
extent George Feezell, in an exception-
al manner, presented a pleasing pa-
per, "Good Citizenship in America,"
followed by H. II. Makemson in a
scholarly reading, "Good-Citizenship
in the World." Atty. Edgar Ander-
son, on request of Dr. Bayes, read an
article, "The Growth of the M. E.
Church," from the Literary Digest.
Other short, but appropriate, talks
were made by different members, af-
ter which the business session was
taken up. It was decided to appoint
two captains,. George Feezell and H.
H. Makemson, to select forces alter-
nately for a campaign, ending in June,
to secure new members to the society,
the result of the contest to be based
on the total attendance of each side
at the ragnlnr meetings, the losing
side, assisted by their ladies, to tender
the winners a banquet immediately af-
ter the close of the contest.
At a late hour the members and
guests departed for their homes, hap-
py in the thought that a most pleas-
ant and helpful evening had been
spent, all being united in their praise
of the genial hospitality of Dr. Bay;s
and his estimable family.
The next meeting will be held at
the home of G. N. Goddard in March,
exact date to be announced later.
The Brotherhood is a worthy organ-
ization, organized for the purpose of
creating a better feeling of good fel-
lowship nod brotherhood between all
men, the only requirement of an ap-
DR. MARK WHITE.
of Chicago, Wus recently in Tulsa in
structing Dr. J. H. Morgan how to
cure Goitre and nervousness by his
method.
Some of the leading citizens of Tul-
su and vicinity are living evidence of
the wonderful curative results of this
new treatment and are ready to co-
operate and indorse it, among them
being Mrs. Kuss L. Grant, of Tulsa,
who was cured by Doctor White after
having been unsuccessfully treated
by some of the leading physicians, and
was in a dying condition when she
heard of and took the Mark White
treatment several months ago, and
would be pleased to know anyone in-
terested or atllicted with the disease
to call and see her, at 802 South Cin-
cinnatti avenue, Tulsa. It" wus through
Mrs. Grant and her mother's solicita-
tion, that Doctor Morgan became in-
terested and after a thorough investi-
gation of the curative value he finallj-
induced Doctor White to come here
and instruct him in the technic so he
could ndapt it in his practice.
People afflicted are fortunate and
will ever thank Mrs. Grant and Doc-
tor Morgan for their efforts in getting
the treatment here, which will be the
means V saving many that would
eventually fall victim of surgery.
Dr. White obligates Dr. Morgan to
keep the price within the Teach of all
and to give it. free to charity patients,
and to refund the fee in event an un-
satisfactory cure is effected. Dr.
White states after treating many hun-
dreds of cases in different stages that
the average have made complete re-
coveries in from one to three months
following two treatments,and that it is
safe to be used on the most delicate
infant or invalid. That it gives re-
sults in cases which have been oper-
ated upon as readily as those who
have not suffered themselves to an
operation. The world has long felt
the need of something which would
cure this mysterious and prevalent
disease, and until Dr. White, after
nine years of research work on ani-
mals perfected his remedy, no relief
could be had other than a very dan-
gerous surgical operation, which usu-
ally fails to give any permanent re-
lief, etc.
Dr. White states that from his ob-
servation (A the disease that it can be
found in 2n per cent of the American
people, and that it runs as high as 75
per cent in towns of Switzerland and
Saxony; further, that it is like tuber-
culosis or malaria, infectious, affecting
animals as well as human beings;
that he has seen a mother and ten
children thus afflicted. The disease
may or may not show an enlargement
of the neck glands.
He states that when the patient is
suffering from an over-secreting of
the thyroid or goitre glands of the
neck, that the symptoms are nervous-
ness, both mental and physical, and is
often overlooked by the physician or
treated as nervous indigestion, hys-
teria, anemia, etc.
Dr. White says that he finds ten
cases which show the nervous symp-
toms to one with the goitre or thy-
roid gland complication, some show-
ing protrusion of the eyes or nervous-
icss ten years before the goitre would
make its appearance; many dying with

PAID OUT $1,400.00 SATURDAY
County Clerk Denny Lane, who
spent Saturday in Collinsville, going
with the expectation of staying ov«r
Monday, returned home Sunday night.
He reports that he paid out $1,400.00
on Saturday and that with the paying
out of this amount all of the persons
claims' in that vicinity were satisfied
so that it was unnecesary for him to
stay another day. He said that many
of those persons having claims on the
homestead fund in the vicinity of Col-
linsville had moved out of the county
into parts unknown and that he did
not pay out as much money as was
expected. It will probably be some
time before all of the $27,000.00 will
be paid out as some of those having
claims on the money have moved into
the various parts of the United
States.
