SELECT A DELEGATE.
Sara Powell of Wagoner I T. who
i with the Hearst party in its tout
of the territories that are kno-klnn
at the door of the Union for admis-
sion sends a communication to the
Ardmorelto dated at Tucson Arizona.
i which ho says:
"The opinion of the Hearst party of
congressmen to visit the Territory !:
that if we should select a delegate
to enures at. the South McAIester
convention ho might be seated by
Joint resolution and even if he were
not that bolns authorized to speak
for the whole Territory he would be
able to socure the passage of a bill
KlvliiK lis tlio right to hnve a dele-
gate." Mr. Jwell nas been cut off from
communication with the Territory for
Homo time and I not aware of the
tart that the original convention called
lor South McAIester October 20 ha
been canceled.
The object for which thnt conven-
tion whs called seemed to be a use-
less effort. The original intention was
to elect a delegate and turn over-n
Mm the task of securing a scat ir he
euild. "He tnigli! be seated by Joint
resolution." anyg Mr. Powell but again
h might not and the man win is
given this resiionslble place wants to
know that he will be taken can of.
The better way Is to follow the plan
outlined in the call Issued by the
r ayors which Is to petition congress
to srant the Indian Territory tho priv-Ic-ge
of electing a delegate. The
p'an la to get tne necessary legisla-
tion waned at the extra sosslon call-
ed to assemble November 0. If not
at the extra session the legislation
en be enacted before the holiday ro-
cess and our delegate can take his
at when con grate reeunvenes in
January.
Thin convention called by the may-
en meets at South McAleeter Oc-
tober 31 and every recording district
ki'ould kend a ttrong delegation.
No one believed that Judge II)'-
.Itunings. commissioner at Cktvmore
was guilty of nlnciul misconduct and
com plot e vindication of all charges as
told in the Claremore Progress fully
sitstalm. his friends' opinion.. Tho
Progress says. "While Mr. Orscnrel-
i!er hait not yet rendered his report
on the hearing hero Saturday of tho
charge filed against Commissioner
.lennlng. it is well known thnt none
of the charges were giutalni In any
particular. The Judge wns not put
to tho trouble of offering any defense
at the prosecution broke down com-
pletely. The Judge ami his fi lends nrc
naturally foaliiiK good over tho git-
pvmo of tho hearing."

Times a Day Cures Catarrh.
The pleasantest most convenient
and the only scientific method fcr the
treatment and cure of catarrh Is Hyo-
mei. Simply put twenty drops of
Hycrael In the Inhaler that comes
with every package and then breathe
It for a few minutes four times a
day.
It seems remarkable that so simple
a way of treating catarrh will effect
a cure but the most Important discov-
eries of science have always been the
simplest liy breathing Hyomei ft
this way every particle of air that en-
ters the air passages of the throat
and head and goes Into the lungs is
charged with a healing balsam that
kill the germs and bacilli of catarrh
ami soothes and allays nil Irritation.
The first day's use of Hyomei will
show a decided improvement and in
a short tune there will he no further
trouble from catarrh. Its action Is
rapid and lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei

not helped you W. II. Frame will r

ment for catarrh Is sold undor a guar-1

The Land Selle Well.
.Muskogee I. T Oct. 21. The trait
tl land which was sold Friday by
Indian Axent Shounfult for $20.80 an
acre was covered by a live years
lease but was bought by the parties
owning the lease. The land has been
leased at tho rate of $1 an acre and
had been paid up for tho full term.
Counting tho time It has not yet run
fcur yoars tho price of the land to
tho purcbasor was virtually $3G.S0 nn
aero. It Is coTwIdcrod n bargain by
tho purchaser however even at t.iat
price as the cropH raised on tho land
11:1k year netted $13 nn acre after p.iv
ing rent and cost of production.
It is being contended by a gi od
'many people here that the government
nppruUcr Is fixing too high a'valuat"m
ir.i the lands being offered for sab .
but others point to tho productiveness
of the land ns Illustrated by tho fore-
going statement mid say tho appraise-
ment Is nil right.
