OITTHRIK: State Henjstor Hick am
of Perkins, has returned from Washing-
ton, where he represented the interests
of the cattlemen of eastern and soutb-
ern Oklahoma, on a request of the agri-
cultural department that the federal
quarantine line be moved below all that
portion of this territory. Secretary
W’ilaon agreed to move the line as peti-
tioned, provided there be a sufficient
number of Oklahoma cattle inspectors
appointed to guard the line well. This
presents the matter forcibly before the
next legislature for a liberal appro-
priation for inspectors.

OKLAHOMA CITY: The city police
have inaugurated a movement that will
meet with the hearty approval of the
citizens of this place. Owing to the
number of robberies, hold-ups and like
offenses the residents have been In con-
stant fear of being visited by this class
—those who have not already been. A
round-up of all the - saloons is made
•very day and those found who have
no visible means of support or who
cannot give a satisfactory explanation
as to why they are here, are arrested
and brought before the police Judge.
One night recently the officers arrested
nearly fifty of these bums and twenty-
five were driven to the city limits and
told not to return while the belance
were held, as they were supposed to be
Implicated la some of the crimes re-
cently committed. If this crusade keeps
up lt will have a tendency to make the
keboe scarce.
Tli* Ap|t**r*ii** of IHmm* Ha* Cainotl
K*ariirtloa in It* Plar*<! on Hnrtt*
GUTHRIE: The s** ret ary of the sani-
tary board has issued an order that
hereafter no horses will be permitted
to be driven across the territory unless
they bear a certain certificate of good
health signed by a repuluble veterinary.
There has been no restrictions on the
entrance of horses heretofore, but the
Impoitatlou of disease compels some
attention, that the Oklahoma horses
may be protected from fever ticks and
glanders. Horse traders have been
driving great herds and the appearam o
of glanders in certain parts of the ter-
ritory have been traced directly to
these imported horees.
To Contest Election*
GUTHRIE: Edward Manley, Demo-
crat, has filed the necesary papers with
Territorial Secretary Grimes, contest-
ing the election of James Wilkin, repub-
lican, as representative from the First
Oklahoma district, composed of Kay
county. Manley charges that enough
fraudulent votes were cast and a suffi-
cient number of alleged mutilated bal-
lots were thrown out to elect him in-
stead of Wilkin, whose majority over
Manley was but ten. Wilkin Served in
the last legislature.

GUTHRIE’: By an order of the Fed-
eral Government all Kaw Indians, who
were on the citizenship roils by Dec. 1,
1902, were entitled to an equal allot- i
ment of lands and monies belonging to
the Kaw tribe. Albert Taylor is a full-
blood Kaw. On Nov. 28, two days be-
fore the rolls were closed, his wife pre-
sented him with twin babies. He en- ,
rolled them immediately. They have
lived, and to Taylor they are worth
$11,000 in land and money, which as
citizens they will be allotted.
No ChrlitniM Pardons
GUTHRIE: Govenor Ferguson issued
Christmas pardons to Oklahoma con-
victs. The territory has many min-
ors confined in the Kansas penitentiary
at Lansing, and in discussing the mat-
ter some time ago Governor Ferguson
said that a great wrong was done In
keeping the boys amongst the harden-
ed criminals and that he might grant
Christmas pardons to them. He is op-
posed to the exercise of the pardoning
power, except in extreme cases, and it
la said that he has decided not glvs any
Chrlsmas pardons.
