Good Prices Paid
For Poland Chinas
Twenty or more of the local
pure bred livestock enthusiasts
of May and vicinity were at La-
ver ne yesterday to attend J. E.
House’s big sale of pure bred
Poland China Hogs. They re-
port a mighty fine lot of hogs
sold and very fair prices. 28
head of bred sows and gilts
brought an average of $88 20 a
head; the total offering of 39
head averaged $76.10. The high
price paid for one sow was $205,
and the highest priced boar $155.
These figures, if they mean
anything, surely mean that it
pays to raise pure bred hogs. It
is really a very short time since
Mr. Bouse took up the pure bred
hog industry, vet he is now rec-
ognized as one of the leaders in
the hog business in northwestern
Oklahoma; buyers come from a
long distance to attend his sales,
and the figures prove the gener-
al estimate of the value of his
animals.
Governor Indicted For Bribe Taking
In district court at Okmulgee yesterday grand jury
returned indictments against Governor Robertson and
Fred Dennis, former Superintendent of Banks, charging
them with accepting a bribe of $25,000 to permit the op-
eration of the Guaranty State Bank, of Okmulgee, while
insolvent Gov. Robertson went to Okmulgee, submitted
to arrest and gave bond for his appearance for trial.

ward convention last April and
they have lost none of their cun-

goes without saying that the
members they worked on have
been duly impressed with the
working plans and obligations of
Oddfellowship.

As an outgrowth of the char-
es filed against O. R. Wheeler
of Mooreland, for selling liquor,
the officers Tuesday raided the
C. L. Elem and Floyd Shirley
places, just east of Woodward,
and were rewarded by finding a
complete still outfit at the Elem
place and a quantity of mash.
At the Shirley place they found
a copper kettle and a coil ol cop-
per tubing but were unable to
locate the screw top of the ket-
tle and the connection by which
the coil is attached. A small
quantity of Mash was found.
The stills and mash were
brought in and charges filed a-
gainst the two men, to which
they entered pleas of not guilty.
The Elem still consisted of a
copper wash boiler with the top
soldered on and a copper tube
and cooling cylinder and the
vessels were still warm, indica-
ting ret ent use.
Both men gave bond for their
appearance in County Court.
