j. Harry Reas, sheriff OF Beaver
county, has resigned. Ee was tired OF
the Office, in which he was very popu.
lar. Ills successor has not been ap-
pointed yet.
The total receipts OF the Oklahoma
school land Office for the year 1899
amounted to slgl .s0s, ,o3 The total
amount collected since the Office has
been in existence is Sss4, ,GOs.5 OF
which S672, 1924, was for district
schools Sl02, ,s7l 45 for colleges and
sl0459i,7i, Tor public buildings
In deciding the lots for the city
library at Oklahoma City ex Gov. Rem
frow insisted on progiso that unless
the city maintained a library for ten
yenrs the lots were TO revert back to
him. The city council instructed the
city attorney to accept none bat q
warranty deed in fee staple, without
provisions.
The story is told that telegram
was received from Washington saying
tt At Governor Barnes would win il he
succeeded in explaining 10 the satis-
faction Of the president his conduct in
letting the contract for the buildius
OF the Alva normal school building
This, ~ was said, was the feature OF
the charges which was considered
most serious.
l.. T. Hudson, an attorney ot Ard
more, who has returned from Wash
ington, brings the information that
Secretary Hitchcock has directed the
Dawes commission 90 open the cases Of
Anna Mcdonald aud Isaac Morgan. Of
Ardmore. These two parties applied
for citizenship iu the Indian Territory
as Mississippi Choctaws and were re-
fused enrollment on the ground that
all applications made since september
o, 1896, we're too late.
Fred Mcdaniel OF Talula, /. T..
member Of the lower house of the
Choctaw legislature. takes this view;
Il em in favor OF statehood with ok
lahoma or any old place in preference
60 present conditions. No one knows
just what Is what, land all OH ces worth
more than $50 month are filled with
carpetbaggers. If the Osagcs will take
lessons from the Cherokees, they will
work allotment at once and not wRit
for it to be forced on them.
The Antlers Democrat, Choctaw
nation, came cGt squarely for single
statehood last ~ tx, saying: "Eereto-
fore the Democrat has been one of the
faithful to hold out against single
statehood, but when we began to look
about for argument IN support Of that
theory the only tangible reason we
could find was prejudice against Okla
homa, there not being one iota of argu-
ment for double statehood except to
make more places for the politicians
and Office seekers. IL would cost but
a trifie more to support state the size
that the Indian and Oklahoma terri
tories would make than IL would a
state the size of either of the terrific
ries. Then what would be The sense
of us supporting two states at double
the cost of one just to provide few
more places for Office seekers? Be
sides, the larger the state is the more
important part 1t will cut in national
affairs. A state with three or four
votes cuts but very little figure, while
state with larger vote in our ma
tional legislature commands respect. :"

THE Republican war on Gov. Barnes
has developed into town scrap,if one
is TO take the Times-Journal OF Okla
homA City as q cpterion. This whole
continuous war shows the rottenness
Of Republicanism. The Times.J Journal
feels called upon 90 say:
Certainly the removal Of Barnes
would affect Guthrie's scheme for the
retention OF the capital of the terri
tory. But GuthFie's schemes for Sc
curing the capital are so notoriouBly
dishonest that the world outside OF
that rotten hole stands aghGst. Last
winter Guthrie undertook 20 seeure
the capital by means so foal that u
contemplated violation OF the feder-
al statute which, was enacted for the
towns benefit. People who are mid
ding honest do not admit that Guth-
should be given the lieeuse which she
demands.

Brooklyn Eagle You cannot afford
to miss Jane Coombs. Why? because
she does not appeal 10 love Of art, or
love Of pretense, or love of shallow
emotion, or love OF dramatic effects.
She appeals to human nature. She Is
wholly and supremely human. She
touches that universal chord of emo.
tion and impulse which runs from
heart TO heart in the whole human
race, failing TO reach none. II Is the
universal human language which was
not confused in the confusion of Babel
She is the supreme mistress OF stage
art and stage effect. But this woman
does not act; she lives the parts. In q
few minutes you have forgotten that
you are at play. You are absorbed
in watching this strange, fascinating
woman you cannot take your eyes
from her, You can see the thoughts
that are flashing through her brain,
for each thought is reflected as in ma
ture upon her features, and the spec
tators are swayed as II they were part
OF the scene; the Illusion is perfect,

I'VE gratefully record growing
spirit of fraternal good will and coop
eration between the Epworth League
and the Christian Endeavor and the
young peoples societies of other
churches. They are coming to see that
the consolidation of our several young
peoples societies into n general organ
ization under the official direction of
the church was not the outcome of
denominational narrowness of sectari-
an rivalry, but rather that. the very
genius and correctional quality of the
Methodist Episcopal church required
that for their larger spiritual growth
and usefulness, her young people be
trained in the usages, spirit and con-
nectional ideals of the church. The
justification of this organization is
demonstrated by its unprecedented
growth and spiritual power and by its
achievements for Christ and the
