Work will now be pushed to an
early completion on the San Pete
Valley railway Eight more miles OF
an extension will tap the rich coal beds
of Six Mile canyon. 4 station will be
established at that point and will be
known as Morrison. This is only
the beginning of the proposed extern
sion to the Nevada line. We may yet
expect the little road to be the main
line of traffic from the metropolis OF
Utah to the coast. Watch the de-

WHAT 1T SPELLS.

"Tae "ARDHoRErrE' quotes
the Oklahoma school law 20 the
Register i'm defense ofits ad-
vocacy for separate statehood.
What does that spell but an ac-
acknowledgement on the part of the
""ARDMoRsIrE' that things will
be Just as bad when the two ter
ritories are combined in.o one
stats. II we thought so We would
favor separate statehood. But
we don { think SO. '-Tcrritorial
Topic.
While it is probable in tho
event of single statehood that
such an in amoIs law wo I'd be
permitted on the statute books,
Che stigma would remain of hav-
ing To be made the tail to n kite
that had in the past promulgated
the idea Of social equality. In
order to prevent the remotest pos
sibility of having to endure such
humiliation the Topic had best
bond its energies TO the end OF
making glorious white mans
state out of the Indian Territory ,
free from the contaminating in
nuences OF social equality of ne
gro and white children in the
public schools. We wait the
people of Oklahoma to have mix
ed schools TO their hearts content,
but we don t want tho people Of
the B. |. Il. TO be tied by single
statehood to either them or their
past ideas on the subject.

NOW COME OFF.

'That Ardmore loves the
farmer was clearly proven a year
or so ago, when her cotton yards
were caught using doctorod
weights to cheat him out of his
cotton. She loves him for what
she can work out of him. -

display of logicP Were the peo-
pie of Arjmore responsible for
the acts of those men who loaded
their peas in weighing cotton?
II ii required an ounce of COM
mon sense to answer negatively,

the fact that those charged,
whether guilty or not, were
promptly retired from business.

THE Purcell Register in its last
issue announces that the attempt
b. organize the farmers under its
instructions fell fiat to the ground.
This result can not be wondered
at when il is considered that the
Register has presistently classed
them as chumps, suckers, etc. !,
for permitting themselves to be
organized under the Ardmore
League. The farmers ass class
are intelligent and progressive,
and are as quick to take an in
suit as other people. This re-
buke to the Registers timely and
deserving. When the farmers
of the Purcell country organize
it will be through tn recognized

over Carter Harrison's Death Mask Be
tween the sculptor and Relatives.
CHICAGO. Jan. 13.-Tne death mask Of
the late Carter H. Harrison has become
subject Of litigation. Late last even
ing Constable G. W. Hasklns, with q writ
of repIevin issued 1T the request Of Car
ter II. Harrison. Jr-, went TO the house of
Larnsf 1uchs, the sculptor who made the
mask and took possession of the same.
There was an ugly scramble for the
possession of the mask, and 1T was only
after policeman had been called iu
who took the side of the constable. that
the officer was allowed to leave the house
with the property chat he had recovered.
AIr. Fuchs claims the mask AS his prop
erty. Sir Harrison denies the claim and
1T IS probable chat the matter viii be the
subject Of further litigation.
The sculptor makes substantially the
following statement regarding his side 0f
the case ~Ihe day after the shooting of
Mayor Harrison L called on the family
and asked permission to make a cast of
the mayors face. to be used for bust OH
statue IN the future The request was
granted. Af1erward / called On Dir. Har-
rlsou, Jr., ia order to negotiate with him
for making bust o. statue. We could
not come to an understanding.
"Alr. Harrison asked for my New
a ork address and also asked me the
price 81 marble bust. which informa-
Ilon 4 gave him. I took the mask to the
residence of my sister-in-laSv. 4ester-
day afternoon TWO men came to the
house during nay absence and asked to
see some of my work, mentioning
among other things the cast OF Dir. Har-
rison's face. When it was shown to
them, one Of them took it up ana SAID he
was a constable and had a writ of re-
plevin for the mask, which was claimed
by AIr. IarrIson's SON.
II arrived about this time, and learn
ing what had taken place. refused to all
low him to leave the house with my
property lie knocked me down and
treated me shamefully 4 called in q
policeman, who not only refused to pre-
vent the men from taking the mask
away but told me If I resisted him lie
would take me TO the police station.
~ intend to see the matter through in
the courts, and viii sue Sir. Harrison for
heavy damages. The mask has lost its
value to me now, as any number of inn
pTessions can be taken from It while out
of my possession
Mr. Harrison said last night that DR.
Fuchs came to his fathers house the
next day after the tragedy which result
ed IN his death and requested permits
sion TO make q mask of his fathers face
The permission was given He notified

to pay him for has services, which he
declined. lib conclusion Mr.. Harrison
