OKLAHOMA OUTLINES.


OKLAHOMA OUTLINES.
Spring chickens are big enough to eat in
Oklahoma
There will be a conference of coIored
people in Oklahoma City IN July.
The Congregational church of King
fisher was dedicated last Sunday.
The settlers on Otto creek, west of Al
fred, have planted quite a large acreage of
cotton.
The editor of the Norman Transcript is
secretary of the Republican convention at
Norman today.
In enumerating OklahOma's friends the
newspapers should not forget TO mention
Secretary Noble.
One of the best pic-nicing grounds in
Oklahoma is not more than a stone 5
throw from Noble
A man near Union City stole pillow.
This show how anxious the people down
there are to till the soil.
The towns in Oklahoma look better. The
people who did not paint their houses last
spring are doing 1t now.
The homesteaders are taking advantage
of the Communication law and the notices
for publication are getting numerous.
coming into Oklahoma from Alabama has
dwindIed down to thirty-five delegates
Wagons and families still keep coming
to Oklahoma. 1t has been a perpetual
opening TO somebody since April %, 1889.
Candidates for county offices are circu-
lating their petitions with considerable
vigor. They seem to be unnecessarily eX-
cited.
As the appointments were not made
Wednesday, it seems the president deems
it advisable TO await the return of Secre-
tary Noble.
Noble has a Scotch poet who writes
poetry for the local paper and his words
form no poor verses. He has the ''atflatus"
sure enough.
The other towns concede that Guthrie is
the capital bat they say it Is only tenn
pOrarily so and that they will fight long
and hard to have it otherwise.
Kingfsher claims to be the most harmo-
NOUS town IL Oklahoma. The cause may
be found, perhaps, in the fact that there Is
not more than one daily paper.
Cotton will stand much worse August
drouth than corn. The great need of
cotton crop is to be kept free from weeds,
when it will make a crop on a limited
amount of rainfall
The recent rains have raised the creeks
and big fish from the Cimarron have come
up into the smaller streams. Last week
we saw several catfish weighing from
eight to twelve pounds that were caught
with hook and line out Of Kingfsher creek,
says the Journal.
No one owning in fee simple 100 acres Of
land in any state or territory, Will be
allowed TO file upon homestead in Okla
hOma hereafter. The Guthrie Capital
thinks this ends the buying of relinquish
ments by those already owning farms Of
100 acres.
