Scheme on Foul to Make • Now

Payne county, w hich k*t the

threatened with a further Iota.
The strip which the jrret-d)
ne»jnl>»rs now demand ifn't "a.«
wide as a barn door nor aa det p
as a well, but it is emugn' u
ia that part of Perkina townahi(>
lying aouih of the Cimarron1
river, and Payne county doesn't

fight.
ThepropoMfl, which has obtair •
ed enou/h luesners to make t

Oklahoma counties and of then,
to make a new county, with
the county seat at Fatiia. 1 he

could be segregated' and which it
could dominate and control to
ita heart's content.
In view of the constitutional
difficulties in making new
counties, and the fact that no
one seems to want this except
promoters, it would hardly seem
worth getting alarmed at. but
there are those who believe the
scheme not only can, but will be
carried out.
This being the case, a meeting
of the Stillwater Commerciai
club was called at G. E. Moore d
Co. '8 office on Monday afternoon,
and, President Bishop being in
the chair, the matter was pre-
sented. It was the feeling of
the meeting that Payne county
cannot afford to lose any more
territory, and it was determined
