J. II. Hamilton went down to Okla
hOma to see the grand rush for the
new lands on the 18th. He was neal
Kingfisher and says the sight of 10,-
600 people, lined out for nearly ten
miles, and then at the sound of the
gun, rushing pell nell into the covet-
ed country was one he snail never

think the land worth living on.
The REGISTER frequently sends
sample copies to persons whose names
may be furnished us in the hope that
those who are not regular subscribers
may be induced to become such. All
who receive the paper, therefore,
without having ordered it may know
that it is simply sent to them as a
missionary in its own behalf, convey
ing to them a polite invitation to sub
scribe for it.
