in a gale of luaghter ho said: "You're
in a good humor now, I guess I'll
preach to you."
He took his text from Paul's
words, "I Am Not Ashamed of the
Gospel," and in a masterly way he
held his audience as he showed them
the power of the old gospel, the old
fashioned Holy Ghost religion. He
showed why we needn't be ashamed
of the gospel and its results ui
heathen lands, in the home land, in
the great men of our country which
it has produced, in the institutions
that it has founded and in every oth-
er place the gospel has found its

Lockett Adair can use wit, humor,
pathos, in such a way that from a
hearty laugh he will bring his hear-
ers to the verge of tears from tears
to enthusiastic responses to the won-
derful flow of oratory that comes so
lapidly from his lips. He captures
his hearers by his simple way of
speaking but with his forceful mighty
sentences that sink deep into hearts
and burn their way into the souls.

or school district, after written de
mand by ten resident taxpayers of
juch county In this case to Institute
or diligently prosecute proper pro
ceedings at law or in equity for the
recovery of any money or property
belonging to such county. But before
you can institute such action you
must make the written demand on
the proper officer and next you must
give security for costs; and it fur-
ther provides in such Bection that the
taxpayer who puts up this security
for costs is entitled to half of the
amounts of money and half of the
value of the property recovered in
any action by him instituted under
and upon such grounds.
In conclusion I wish to say that
the question of compensation for
special attorney should not worry
you if you are sincere in your be-
lief because you would be entitled to
half of the money recovered, if you
act individually and recover any-
thing, and as far as the county at-
torney's office 1b concerned, it was
made and created by law as a repre
sentatlve office for the entire public,
and if the county attorney should
step aside entirely in any matter
that comes along he would not be
fulfilling the oath that he took when
he became an officer. This Is
matter about which I have had deep
concern and have worked hard at
least thirty days upon this report and
I wish you would secure some man
to come and help out with it, and as
I told you in the beginning that
you would select two men I Would act
as a third and that in any matter
upon which we disagree that the
two out of the three would control
and actions would proceed accord-
ingly. Further than this I cannot
go.

FERRIS WINS FOR
0000
OKI A H O H A REPRESENTATIVE
AXD COLLEAGUES MAKE
STRIKE FOR FARMERS.
Special to The News-Herald.
Washington, April 29.—"When the
solid phalanx of good roads advo-
vates, in which were Representative
Scott Ferris and other members of
the Oklahoma delegation, moved
down on the house, and voted favor-
ably to the special rule making jt
possible to attach a rider to the gen-
eral appropriation bill providing for
federal aid in the development of
highways, a great blow wae struck
in behalf of the farmers of the
nation.
With government aid, the post
roads of the country will be devel-
oped to such an extent that the farm-
ers will be brought In closer touch
with the markets, their social life
will be improved and better educa-
tional facilities offered to their chil-
dren. Representative Ferris long
long fought in the house for good
roads legislation and to him as much
as any other man in the house, can
be given the credit of victory.
Mr. Ferris answered the opponents
of the good roads plan who have al-
leged legislation for federal aid
would be udconstitutional, by point-
ing out that the American congress,
March 14, 1819, passed a resolution
declaring that congress has power o
establish poet roads that highway
Improvement was a pledge of the
democrats in the last national plat-
form. He also showed that the gov-
ernment had granted 159,125,734 acres
of public domain to the railroads of
the country, which valued at $10 an
acre would be an amount aggregating
$1,591,257,340 if appropriated from
the treasury. He showed also that
the nation had expended nearly a
billion dollars for waterways, but
the highways of the country, which
were most needed had been neg-
lected.
It is practically certain at this ses-
sion of congress, a bill will be
passed to abolish gambling in farm
products. This no doubt will be a
source of gratification to Represen-
tative Ferris, who was one of tho
first to introduce a bill in congress
providing for the abolishment of
tracing in futures. Mr. Ferris's first
speech against the system was made
in 1908 in the house and he ha3
'been hammering ever since. At first
it was considered that legislation of
the sort never would be acted on
favorably, but it seems that the Ok-
lahoman's prediction that eventually
the national lawmakers would 6tand
with him, is destined to come true.
The measure providing for an ex-
tension of payments to the purchas-
ers of lands in Stephens, Grady, Cad-
do, Kiowa, Comanche, Tillman and
Jefferson counties has been passed
by congress and now is a law. Owing
to droughts for the past three years
the majority of over three thousanl
purchasers, have been unable to
make their payments, three exten-
of those prisoners as desire to go to
Mescalero.
A petition from purchasers of the
Choctaw and Chickasaw unallotted
lands of about 1,500,000 acres, asking
that an extension of time be granted
for remaining payments, has been
filed with the department of interior
by Representative Ferris. The de-
partment has posted notice, that the
remaining payments are due Decem-
ber 1, but it is desired that these
be divided into four annual install-
ments. Representative Ferris will
make a strong effort to gain the ex-
sion, but if department officials re-
fuse, he then wil' introduce a bill *n
congress looking to this end and will
seek its passage at this session.

Frank Rush, superintendent of th
national forest and game reserve in
the Wichita mountains, by W. N
Rose of Cache, S. A. L. Rodd of Law
ton, L. V. Shroyer of Cache and sev-

boycott the merchants of Cache, un-
less they refuse to advertise in the

also charged, he has threatened the
Cache rural telephone company, th it
if it does not remove the phone from

JUDGE POK RULES THAT SO-LEGS
ISLAND IS PROPERTY OF
INDIVIDUALS.
Pawnee, Okla., April 27.—In a de-
cision handed down by Judge L. M
Poe in the district court here tho
Arkansas river ia held to be not a
navigable stream and the federal
and state claims to ownership of the
river bed is refuted.
The case involved the ownership
of a tract of land in the river toed,
covering an area of 84 acres, known
as the Larry No-Legs island, and
located near Ralston.
The decision places the ownership
in W. H. Kdmonstan, a squatter, and
H. A. Thomas, a Pawnee countv
homesteader, who claims a part of
the tract as belonging to his home-
stead, filed on when the "Cherokee
Strip" was opened to white settle-
ment in 1893.
Because it is underlaid with rich
oil deposits this tract is estimated
value at $500,000.
As today's decision conflicts with
that recently rendered by Judge Cot-
teral of the federal court at Guthrie
i decision by the United States su-
preme court will be necessary to ' i
nally determine the ownership.
