A Murder Near Ell Paso.

VIM. Creeks shot and killed Thomas vii
hanson last Friday evening in the southern
part of this county. Greeks fed in the direc-
ton OF the Indian Territory. Both were
farmers, and both, it seems, were applying
for divorce in the next term of court. The
difficulty arose from an Old grudge engen-
dered, il seems, because OF some misunder-
standing of matters pertaining to their family
affairs. IL is Said to have been very cold
murder. The county officers are sparing
neither pains nor expense to bring the guilty
party to justice Deputy Marshal, Charles
Jones, is following the flying fugitive, while
Sheriff Cunning is telegraphing to all available
or likely points. Tence Massey. the Deputy
Sheriff, and County Attorney Stanley are also
doing all that lays in their power. When last
heard from, Greeks was about seven miles
south OF his home. going toward the Indian
Territory. Both men were passed the mid
die of life.

Oh Our Wheat Crop /!

Politics or no politics, we will not refrain
from again this week congratulating the
farmers of this = Arkansas Valley, upon the
daily increasing prospect of a glorious stand
OF the late sown wheat. As the old lady ex-
claimed, Don't it beat the Jews" Yes, we
shoald say, and the Gentiles too. The farm.
ers OF this valley can sow wheat any time
from August TO December with about the
same average result. Wheat never grew
more rapidly and finer than in the past few
days, and that sowsing old rain night before
last and yesterday, accompanied by thunder
and lightning, how it will turn every wheat
field into great green mat. We congratulate
our farmers. Republicans, Democrats. Green
hackers, Independents and all that whoever
may win the Presidential chair the great Ar
kansas Valley in another year or two will
have about all the money that her people can
comfortably use, and all from her hones

over one million ami half in use. The
most durable and ightest running machine in
the world. As an evidence, the Singer, REM
iugton and Wheeler e. Wilson were invented
about the same time aud put into market, and
at the present dav the Singer has over one
million and half in use, the Wheeler Il VIII
son has about five hundred thousand and the
Remington has the small. insignificant num-
Der of five thousand nine hundred and fifty
three, which can be seen on the upper end of
the needle burr, which makes the Remington
the last choice OF the people, and they would
not have sold one quarter that number hal
they not sold them under a fictitious name.
For many years the Remington machine COM
pany have attempted TO force their machines
on the market as the Remington, but failed,
which reminds me of several occurrences.
Fifteen years ago the third day OF July, was
in Bloomington Illinois, stopping with 3
friend by the name of ID. IL. Horner. There
were two agents at the place. the Wheeler Il
Wilson and the Remington. The Wheeler a
Wilson agent had confidence enough in his
machine to sell it on Its own reputation, but
the Remington agents confidence failed him.
and he attempted to sell 1t as the improved
Weed Some five years ago. while was sell
ing the Howe, happened to meet an agent
that was selling the Remington. lie had u
little confidence In his machine as the first
one met, and he attempted to sell it as the
improved Howe. and | have been creditabiy
informed that the Remington agents are sell
ing their machines here as the improved
Singer, which is false. There is no improved
Singer except the original one, which cannot
be sold in the Southwest except by or
through me. Those who wish to buy the
Remington are welcome to, but deem it my
duty to inform the good people OF the South
west, through the columns of your paper, so
they will not be imposed upon in buying ma
chimes. A machine that cannot be sold on
its own reputation should not be sold on the
merits of a machine that has been long tried
and proved, without doubt, the best in the
world. The impositions offered are of the
deepest dye. w. MASON,
