troduce improvements in agriculture
there. There is at present but one agri-
cultural college in Turkey, and methods
of farming are very primitive. The cot
ton, for example, is ginned in machines
fed by hand and the ground is stirred
with crooked stick with a piece of iron
for a point. An injection of some of the
push and go of Oklahoma's agricultural
methods into such a country should pro-
duct a great Improvement in the condi-
ton Of the people and the country gen.

the work on the new buildings. 1t is ex-
pected. however that the chemistry build
ing will be ready for occupancy by the
opening Of the winter term, and the H.

ings are sorely needed, the 259 students
at present in attendance being very
much crowded in the limited space Of the
present buildings.

SOON A DREAM OF The PAST
Fond Hopes BIiShted in the Hutchin-
son and Southern sale.

Guthrie, o. T.. Oct. 31--Yesterday' $
Eagle chronicled the sale Of the Hutchin-
son Southern to the Santa Fe. The To-
peka Capital, drawing its inspiration, no
doubt, from the Santa Fe officials at To-
peka, says: 1.-THE Santa Fe railroad has
acquired the Hutchinson and Southern
railroad. The deal was consummated
several days ago but has been kept Sc
-cret. The price paid for the road cannot
be definitely learned, but it is known that
Hutchinson man who had some stock
in the road was paid at the rate of ten
cents on the dollar for his stock. The
road is bonded for 5000 per mile. If the
price paic fcr all the stock is the same as
was paid tc the Hutchinson stockholder,
the read cost the Santa Fe S296,OoO How
ever # is MOI known whether the pres
ent company is to assume any Of the in
5ebtedness, not represented by the bonds
There was q rumOr of the purchase Of
she Hutchinson and Southern some time
$50 when President Ripley Of the Santa
Fe. went over the road. There is also
persistent rumor, with no means of ascer-
tanning the truth of it. that the Rock
Island and the Santa Fe have some sort
of an understanding regarding this latest
purchase of the Santa Fe; that these two
roads do not desire any competition in
The territory, and that the purchase Of the
Hutchinson and Southern was part OF
d plan to keep other lines out of the
territory. This sale Of the Hutchinson
and Southern is a great blow to Hutchin-
son. It was hoped that it would be ex-
tended southwark to the gulf, and that
cheap coal and cheaper lumber would be
practical benefit TO that city, especially
beneficial on account of the salt works
there. All Of the general offices that are
now located there viii be abolished, the
road viii be operated by Superintendent
D D Bailey from wellington and all Of
the families now located there will nee |
essarily be moved from there. Two years |
ago that city voted $4,000 in bonds to |
the Hutchinson and Southern for termi- !
nal facilities Part of these have been
built A demonstrated round house has
been erected, pressed brick general Of
hces and depot, the finest in the state, has
been built and nearly completed, bridge

,ninals. but the anomaly now is presented |
of a road having terminals with nothing |

hcen issued, as the work 81 not com /
peted. 4 suit Is now pending against |
the Hutchinson and Southern by num-
Der Of men In Cincinnati who claim that /
they are the rightful owners Of the road.
The Santa lie, of course, buys it with .
notice Of the suit pending. The Hutchin-
son and Southern Will soon be dream of

RESIGNATION OF REV. stole
Result of DissensiOns in the First
Baptist Church. at Perry.

Guthrie, o. T., Oct. 31.-There lis a
church row in Baptist circles in Perry
Rev. Stote, as a result, has resigned. The
enterprise gives the statement of oppos-
ing factions: "a member of the church
who favored the retention of Rev Stote
authorizes the following statement: AZ
ter the morning services yesterday Rev.
A. II. Stote, pastor of the First Baptist
church of this city, handed in his resig
nation as pastor, same to take effect one
month from date. Rev. Stote has labor
ed hard in our midst for more than
year, doing excellent work and making
waram friends of the people he met here
as strangers. His resignation just at this
time IS almost a vital blow to the inter-
ests of the Baptist church, but comes
about as the result of internal dissensions
of long standing with which he. as pas
tor, has had nothing to do, but under the
benighting influences Of which he falls
as the third victim. All unite in the sin
cerest of wishes for his success and pros
perity In new fields, and all who know
him hold him in the highest esteem. His
resignation is to be regretted, and the
Baptist church and the city of Perry is
loser by his departure
Mr.. John A. Onphant, asked for his
version of. the matters which led up to
the resignation Of Rev. A II. Stote of
the Baptist church. said in effect, that
there was no trouble but that the pas
tors time was out and the deacons OF the
church sent the regular notices to mem
bers requesting their attendance after the
regular meeting yesterday to take action
on calling new pastor 10 this charge.
Rev. Stote was considered an able man
but not enough Of a mixer to suit the
ideas of a majority Of the members. Ac-
oording 10 Mr. Oliphant. there was no no.

not know how the court would appreciate
such a query. In this country, where
brands are in vogue, brand is recog-

evidence of ownership Of stock. When
cattlemen attend a roundup they do not
cut their stock on flesh marks, but upon
brands exclusively. Men who own hun

CAKE WALK CASES ON TRIAL
Two of the Defendants Arraigned in
Dist icf (Onrf at Enid.

Enid, O. T., Oct. S1.-Yesterday two Of
the defendants in the cake walk cases
were arraigne1 and after the arraignment
Judge McAtee appointed c. H. Parker
as a special counsel to assist with the
prosecution. At this stage of the proceed
ings, County Attorney HubbelI announced
that in view of Mr.. Parker's appointment
he desired that the full conduct of the
case be turned over to him, apparently
desiring to withdraw from the case Judge
McAtee told him TO use his own judgment
as to his future connection with these
cases. It is not likely that Mr.. Hubbel
will appear further in the prosecution Of
the cases. a jury was then called in the
case of the territory VS.. Dawson, one Of
the murder cases from Dewey county. II
is likely that it will take several days
to secure a jury.
