Announcement.
We are authorized to announce the
name of Bayard T. Hainer for the nom-
ination as member of Congress from the
First Congressional District of Okla-
homa, subject to the election of the re-
publicans in primary election.
Washington, May 22. With ad-
journment near at hand many bills
are being acted upon by the two
houses of congress and Oklahoma is
interested in a number of those that
went through in the last week. Of
greatest importance is the McGwre
restriction bill which passed the house J
some time ago and is now through
(be senate. It removes restrictions
on eight million acres of land in the
Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, Seminole
and Cherokee Nations, permitting
the sale of ibis laud and making it
taxable so it will bear an equal burden
with the lands of Oklahoma of the
expenses of the state government.
Ea h district in Oklahoma gets
something in the public buildings bill,
better known as the pork bib, which
has passed the house. McGuire se-
cured an appropriation for $100,000
building for Enid and S3">,(l(lO for an
addition to the site at Guthrie. Fu-
ton secured #50,000 to be used in start-
ing the Oklahoma City building, the
ultimate appropriation for which is
expressly limited to ¥100/100. Ferris
secured $15,000 for a site at Chickasha,
Carter $15,000 for a site at Mc Mester,
and Devenport $20,000 for a site at
Tulsa. McGuire is the only member
of congress who secured action on two
projects iu the bill.
Two measures of general interest to
Oklahoma that have recently been in-
troduced by congressman McGuire are
th>' resolution requiring the pension
department to accept the age at enlist-
ment as shown by the records of the
war department a proof of thesoldiers
age in making application under the
MeCumber pension law and the bill
providing that the money derived
from the sale of public land shall be
used for a drainage fund in Okla-
homa. The bill permits the loaning
of this money to corporations along
the deep fork organized by the farm-
ers and land owners for the purpose
of clearing and straightening the chan-
nel of the river. Almost every year
the rich lands of ti e Deep Fork bot-
tom are damaged by overflows.
Oklahoma is tlit* gainer by more
than two hundred thousand dollars as
a result of an opinion by comptroller
of the currency Tracewell that the
state shall secure three per cent inter-
est on the five million dollar school
fund secured for the state by McGuire
in the enabling Act from the ap-
proval of the 4ct June 10, 1006, until
the money is turned over t ■ the state
instead of from the time the state
wasadm tted Nov. 10, 1907 until it was
turned over as the auditor had previ-
ously held. McGuire has been work-
ing on the matter for Some time and
Comptroller Tracewell notified bitn
of t' e opinion this week.
he favorably reported giving the state
of Oklahoma title to the fort supply
military reservation, which is to be
used for an insane asylum. By bunch-
ing a large number of such measures
in an omnibus bill it is expected they
j will go through before adjournment.
The bill introduced by Owens in the
senate and McGuire in the house
sending to the court of claims the
Osage Nation claim for $800,000 for
i money belonging to them that was
used in the education of other In-
dians has pa sed the Senate.
The McGuire bill removing restric-
tions agency lands in northeastern
Oklahoma also passed the senate, hav-
ing previously passed the bouse,
Wm. Rigdon has been appointed
postmaster at Douglas in Garfield
county.
Letter from Alaska.

In the omnibus bill reported by the

portant measures in which McGuire

Base Ball
Mulhall'* heavy artillery, was turned
loose on the Orlando fortifications Sun-
day. The battle was fiercely fought
for nine rounds, when the firing ceased.
The score was r4 to 6 in favor of Or-
lando.
The Mulhall team composed a fine
group of boys. They did not complain
but played ball the best they knew how,
but they w«re up again* it when Mert
Marker, assisted by the balance of the
boys, sent in the ball over *he plate, and

Tired nerves, with that '-no ambition"
feeling that is commonly felt in spring
or early summer,can be easily and quick-
ly altered by taking what is known to
druggists everywhere as I)r. Shoop's Re-
storative. One will absolutely note a
changed feeling within 48 hours aftef
beginning to take the Restorative. The
bowels get sluggish in the winter-time,
the circulation often slows up, the kid-
neys are inactive, and even the heart in
many cases grows decidedly weaker. Dr.
j Shoop's Restorative is recognized every-
where as a genuine tonic to these vital
organs. It builds up and strengthens
the wornout weakened nerves; it sliarp-
-ns tne failing appetite, and universally
aids digestion. It always quickly brings
renewed strength, life, vigor, and ambi-
tion. Try it and be convinced, Sold by
John Marker.
