penitentiary says: “Why is it that
from the llrst Inception of our paper
until the preseut time we have not
had an editor sojourn in our midst?
Other professions have been well
represented; of preachers we’ve had
enough to furnish subsistence to an

enough to depopulate a state: law-

WAS IT MURDER?
A Boomer by the Name of Albert
Blake from Muscatine, Iowa,Found
Dead on the Santa Fe Switch
at Wakita Friday Morning.
When the section hands at Wakita
went to work last Friday morning
they noticed an object lying on the
track,which proved to be thabody of
a man, presumably having met death
under the wheels of the local freight
Thursday evening, which left Man-
chester about 0:30, reaching Wakita
about 10 o’clock.
A drizzling rain was falling while
the train was unloading the freight
consigned to Wakita, which took
probably 15 minutes. Three men
got out of the caboose at this place,
two traveling men, or at least they
had the appearaucc add parapher-
nalia generally seen with the average
commercial traveler, and one with
the rough dress usual to the laboring
man. Whether this man was the
victim of the accident or murder we
have been unable to determine.
The body was cut and torn to such
an extent as to be unrecognizable.
The head was severed from the trunk
and the bones bf the legs and arms
broken and the llesli terribly torn.
Letters addressed to Rert Wake,
Manchester, Okla., mailed at Musca-
tine, Iowa, signed by liis sister,
weie found in his pockets. The sis-
ter was telegraphed; she replied by
asking that the body be sent to her
for burial. She sent no money and
as a corpse will not be received for
transportation unless the charges
are prepaid, the body was buried at
Wakita Saturday afternoon.
The unfortunate young man had
been employed in the brick yard at
Manchester, but quit Thursday, in-
tending to go to ElReno to register.
When last seen here he was in a
drunken condition and in company
with a stranger. He had about $25
in money when he settled up with
Mr. Cordray, the proprietor of the
brick yard, and when the body was
found his poeketbook lay some dis-
tance away and contained only a few
cents.
The coroner's jury, in view of the
surrounding conditions, the position
of the body with reference to the
poeketbook, etc., returned a verdict
that tiie deceased came to his death
by being pushed under the moving
cars by persons to them unknown.

School Lands in the New Country.
Secretary Huston has issued the
following with reference to school
lands in the Kiowa and Comanche
country:
The school lands will not be for
lease until aftei the country is open
lu settlement and the laud appraised.
Four sections of laud, namely, 16 and
36 and 13 and 33 in eacli congressional
township will be for lease, unless
allotted to the Indians or reserved
for public purposes by tiie president.
Where any of these lands have been
reserved indemnity lands have been
selected in lieu thereof, a list of
which can be bad on application at
this office.
East of the range line between
ranges 13 and 14 only one quarter sec-
tion will be leased to one person:
west of that liue in any quantity
deemed advisable by the board for
leasing school lands.
No rules have been made by the
board for the first leasing, but due
uotice will be given of the time aud
method in the press of tiie territory
in ample time to give everybody an
opportunity to tuake application to
lease tiie land. Until such notice is
given no applications will be consid-
ered.
No person will acquire any rights
by settlement on any of said school
lands and the law of this territory
makes it a misdemeanor for ar.y one
other than tiie lessee to use or occupy
any Of said lands.
The school land is not for sale and
will not be until Oklahoma lias
become a state, and can then be sold
only by legislative enactment.

them, intend to remain .until after
the drawing, which begins Monday
next. As a result the city is crowded
to its nf most capacity.
THE DRAWING.
So many peoplo misunderstand the
manner in which the drawing is to
be conducted that will decide who
are entitled to farms in the new
country that we give the following
space for the edification of our
readers:
The envelopes containing the Iden-
tification slips areof different colors,
those for the Lawton district being
of one color and those for the ElReno
district of another color. The en-
velopes will be separated according
to color and put into separate
wheels. The envelopes will be drawn
from both wheels at the same time
and place at ElReno under the super-
vision of a commission appointed by
the Secretary of the Interior.
The drawing will begin July 29 and
continue until all the envelopes are
drawn. The envelope drawn
from the wheels whose number shall
be greater than 0,500 will lose,because
there are not more than that maDy
farms in each district.
The envelopes will be numbered as
they are drawn from the wheels, con-
secutively. There will be two
No. 1’s, one for each laud district,
two No. 2’s, etc.
The name of each person and his
number will be posted iu a public
place aud printed in the daily papers.
Each person will also be notified by
a government postal card, Issued by
the commission when the envelope is
drawn.
The president in his proclamation
and the head men at ElReno have
recommended that applicants make
other arrangements for notification.
Either be present in person or employ
some person who will be present to
telegraph you iu case you are one of
the lucky 6,500.
Applications to file on lands in the
new country for tiie 60 days immedi-
ately after August 6 must be made
by registered applicants and in the
numerical order establislisd by the
drawing. On August 6 the owners of
the first 125 numbers in each district
will be allowed to file. On August 7
the owners of the numbers 126 to 250,
inclusive, will be allowed to file, and
this plan will be followed until the
land is disposed of, which will take
less than 60 days. At the expiration
of this time any qualified person, reg-
istered or unregistered, may secure
land not yet filed on, in the usual
manner.
Should any person fail to respond
when bis number is called to file, he
will be passed until the day’s filings
are finished, when liis number will
be called again. If still absent his
chance is gone and he is out.
To secure a homestead entry the
applicant must personally present at
the proper land office his certificate
of registration theretofore issued to
him, together with a regular home-
stead application and the necessary
accompanying proofs, also 1 ho regu-
lar '.and office fees, amounting to &l 4.
If any registered applicant is rlis-
quulifiied it shall be found out when
lie attempts to tile, and the same
will be rejected. Or should anv one
register more than once, or under an
assumed -name, he shall lose all right,
to file within the 00-day limit, should
he perchance be aruoug those draw-
ing a lucky number.
Governor Richards, superintendent
of the opening, says the drawing of
numbers will be finished in ample
time to notify all and to allow you to
reach your land office August 6. He
also states that the drawing will be
as public as it is possible to make it.
A great number of people will be
in ElReno to witness the drawing,
which will he conducted on a raised
elevation of ground in plain view of
the whole people.
---
Will Be Prssecuted.
It is broadly stated that a large
number of men who have used their
homestead right will attempt to get
claims iu the new country. It might
be well to warn them that they will
run up against a busiuess that will
bring disaster and disgrace to those
who attempt it. The government
has in its service a large number of
detectives or secret service men
whose duty it is to bunt every kind
of fraud in government matters.
Out bf the 13000 men who get claims
a certain per cent will not be entitled
to hold the land for the reason that
they have exhausted their rights.
Every man who draws a prize will
have a detective looking up his
record and the archives of the land
offices and the general land office at
Washington will be open to the
secret service and no man who goes
to ElReno or Lawton and commits
perjury can escape the penalty of the
law. He will be caught as sure as
fate. Look out, do not go up against
Uncle Sam.—Enid Democrat.
