The editor of the Republican nev-
er labored under a greater difficulty
than he did in writing up the fair.
He was a total stranger to all the
exhibitoes and everyone was too
busy having a good time to think of
"the stranger within our gates.”
We hope to do better next year.
Notice There are still a number
of dishes at the Red Cross rooms
that were left there after the din-
ner given the soldier boys several
weeks ago. Will the owner please
call and get them. As these dishes
are aot marked, there is no way of
the ladies telling to whom they be-
long, or they woul.l have been te-
turned. They are in the wa. and
Maty Officials lore.
Representatives of the Industrial
department of the Katy railway
met with a few of the business men
of Pryor at Odd Fellow hall Tues-
day night and discussed business of
importance to Mayes county. The
Katy desires to co-operate with our
people in securing immigration of
desirable farmers to this section.
Not that we haven’t already a de-
sirable class of farmers, but there is
room here for many more.
Those comprising the party of
men, were L. B. Chipley, Ind. and
Col. agent, Boston; C. *L. Knox of
Omaha; C. E. Osborne, Pittsburgh;
L. E. 0’I.eary, Cleveland; W. F.
Allen, St. Louis; A. Bryant, Chicago;
T. N. Jeffords, H. H. Evans, Par-
sons.
Each of these men talked inter-
estingly on the wonderful possibil-
ities of eastern Oklahoma. Short
talks were also made by E. M. Bow-
ers, Thos. Hale, W. A. Graham, R.
A. Wilkerson and 0. H. Graves.
Fhe party left yesterday morning
for a motor trip over the county.
