** Allen Wright, a full blood Choc-
taw, one of the framers of the treaty
of 1866, suggested that portion of
the treaty and intended at that time
that the organisation mentioned,
should include not only the five civ-
ilised tribers but also the wild tribes
as they became civilised, who were
located in the Indian Territory.
••This proposed organisation failed
to materialise on account that the
Cherokees and Choctaws could not
agree as to membership, as to the
number of members to which they
should be entitled."

The Catholics of Stroud are going
to hold a fair October 23-24-25, for
the purpose of raising money for the
church. Through the kindness of
Father Reynolds we have received
the names of the fair committee.
We hope that the people of Stroud,
whether they be Catholics or not,
will do all within their power to help
the cause. All assistance will be
very much appreciated.
H. E. Straughen, our obliging
and efficient county clerk, who has
made a splendid official, is before
the people of Lincoln county for re-
election. It is almost an unwritten
law to give a good officer at least a
second term, and we hope the voters
of this county will say to Horace
next month : “Well done, thou good
and faithful servant, enter thou into
—another term of office.”

Beautiful Complexions.
Are spoiled by using any kind of prepar-
ation that fills the pores of the skin. The
best way to secure a clear complexion free
from sallowness, pimples, blotches, etc., is
to keep the liver in good order. An occas-
ional dose of Herbine will cleanse the bow-
els, regulate the liver, and so establish a
clear, healthy complexion. 50c at Burton’s
