UCK OIL
While After Water, Driller
Strikes Oil on Lockney
1 Ranch.
THE FLOW IS STRONG
NOT A CANDIDATE.
The Fluid that Made Humble Fa
mous Is Found in the Sand
Rock Which Underlays
the Valley of the
Washita.
Oil Wiis struck Saturday on the
Lockney ranch, two miles west of
Aylesworth, I. T., while drilling for
water. The oil was found in a sand
rock under the blue and white lime
stone, which covers the entire Washita
valley. The flow is very strong. Gas
was struck near there some time ago.
This oil well is about eight miles from
Madill, and no doubt is the same vein
that passes through Madill.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK
MADILL : INDIAN : TERRITORY
There is no other element in the affairs of a bank that
ought to appeal so strongly to the conservative depositor
as the element of safety It is the men who compose the
directory and the list of Stockholders which makes our
Bank especially strong.
There is no other bsnk in this district, the directors of
which have so strong a financial backing as this Bank.

TEN1 MEETING CLOSED.
Greatest Ingathering in the History
of Madill.
The big tent meeting closed Wed-
nesday night after continuing about
three weeks. Evangelist S. P. Mor-
gan, of Midlothian, Texas, did the
preaching, and so wonderful was his
success that this is classed as Madill's
greatest meeting. Rev. Morgan has
the art of getting close to the people
•and appealing to them with power.
Immense crowds attended the meet-
ings, some nights almost a thousand
people were in attendance.
The meeting resulted in 80 conver-
sions, 23 restorations and 45 additions
to the Baptist church. Also a num-
ber of additions to the Methodist
church who were baptized last Satur-
day. Thirty-four were baptized The
Henry M. Furman Asks That His
- * Name Not M Used.
The following letter to the Dallas j
I News explains itself:
i I have just seen a copy of your pa-
per containing an item to the effect
that my name was being used as a J
prospective candi 'ate for Congress in J
the movement for separate statehood I i
for Indian Territory. | (
1 appreciate the confidence and good J
will of my friends, and always like to *
serve them whenever I can do so with-
out a sacrifice of my convictions. I
am not disposed to question the intel-
ligence, honesty or patriotism of those
who differ with me or to take offense
because they do not think as I do, but j
I sincerely believe that this movement
for separate statehood is a mistake. |
In my judgment joint statehood for
Oklahoma and Indian Territory is in-
evitable. This is a sectional as well
as a political question. From infor-
mation in my posession I am satisfied
that the East without regard to party
policies will never agree to the forma-
tion of two States out of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory. To fight joint
statehood is to fight any kind of state-
hood and by so doing to perpetuate the
un-American government to which the
people of toese two territories art now
subjected. I know that this is not
the purpose of some who favor sepa-
rate statehood, but I am satisfied that
this will be the result of their action if
such action has any effect whatever.
Entertaining these views I cannot con-
sent to allow the use of my name in
connection with a movement which, in
my judgment, will even tend to con-
tinue conditions among us which so
vex and harass our people.
Again thanking my friends for con-
necting my name with such a high and
exalted position, for the reasons above

Indication of Oil.
The gravel pits at Kinlock show
splendid indications of oil. The gravel
in some places is very oily. The gravel
makes the land worth several thousand
dollars per acre, but if oil is struck on
it, too, the owner may become a veri-
table Rockefeller.
New Goods.
Almost every dry goods store in
town has been shelving new goods this
week, getting ready for the fall trade,
which promises to be large. Never
before has the town made such great
preparations for the fall trade as this
year. The stocks this fall will be im-
mense, not only in dry goods lines, but
in every line and the demand will like-
wise be great.
