has. now progressed farrnough for the
territory to know that the rank ap'd

cided upon by tho republican members.

eiaior that MeGuIre would bo knifed
Ho a ilnlsh unless the Flynn crowd haU
their way in tho legislative eedlstrict-
ing. As an immediate result tho gov-
ernor gave out aa authorised Inter-
mew in the WicliU.i Eagle last Sun
daj in which lie washes his hands of
tthe work of tho cummittee.
Plans are already inatujed by whiclr
the countiei are to be cutvnd sliced to
pieces to secure republican majorities
Jt is said Pa ne county Js to be catter-
cd into three i-opinefaentatJvo and two
council districts with -Stillwater in
.the extreme corner.; that Llnco n coun-
ty is to bo distributed .into four repr6-
sentatlvo distrifU and thrown with

ly will be thrown into In o repiesenta-
iho districts; all tfaktif range three
west to go w b LiimoJu count and
ivefat of lunge three Uiist including
Oklahoma City to go with Canadian
county.
Xhero is scarcely a county in the
territory which is not cut to pieces
and if tho ptesent plans oi tho repub-
lican members nro carries out there
will he scaicely a county In tho terri-
tory left intact. Republican leaders
have bombarded tho conunltteo for
several daj b but their wishes are to
be ignored and Grimes uiJl dictate
the district liuos without regard to
local inuvest or geographical-onveni-ences.

they were born and which inlluarxed
their whole lives and tho adepts of the
onliir of tho Magic hi knowing the
date of ones birth could cast u hoiO-
scw)e and from it give a correct nead
ing of j our futuro life. Thh scieuct
u-iih once thought to be iost but tho
order of the Magic handed down tlwir
socrots to chosen deseJples nhofu
tui-ii transmitted it. to others und toda
there aio followers of tills famous
order who can determine llie conjunct-
ion of tho heavenly bodifciandiu their

inuuy men and women have made a

Hao on ever seen people who toiled
from early morn til) Jnto at niglit

out accumulating tho slightest sem-
blunco of a competence for old ago? It
is for lack of knowledge in not know-
ihg where to place himself or what
