mother had been n servant In n well
known family and who had received n
monthly pension for some years past
from the same family appealed to the
family for n large contribution to help
her TO enter n home, she claiming she
had so toward the admission fee. 1t

priest responded, "She has saved not
only SO, but $1,000, and l have made
her send back to you $500 to repay the
sums she has procured from you dur.
Ing all these years by her deceItful

AFTER REMAINDER OF LAND.
Settlers Think CattIemen Can Easily
Get Out Of the Reserve by Sprinq.

Set out OF tne reserve ny spring.
Lawton, o. r., Aug. "a movement
has been started here among the home.
seekers who lost to have the govern.
ment open up the three reserves in the
land lottery which 1t set aside in the
Lawton district before the opening.
At n meeting of 100 or more of them 1t
was decided to petition the interior
department at ono to take such ac-
tion. These reserves embrace 532, 500
acres, or about 1900 quarter sections.
The land was held in reserve, 1t is
believed, because the government an.
ticipated that the cattlemen, who had
all of the Kiowa-C omanche country
leased for pastures, would not be able
to find pastures in Texas and other
cattle grazing sections readily. If the
cattlemen can round up their cattle
and get them to the government reser-
vations this fall, the homeseekers ar
que, they can find pastures somewhere
else by next spring. The homeseekers
are willing to buy the land outright
from the government.

the social reformers in this direction are
a hopeless ignorance of the saloon, it's
environments and the people who patron
ize and conduct 1t. The social influence
of the saloon is less today than it ever
was before in the United States. The
gilded bar and the absence Of all seat
ing accommodations has made the Amer
lean saloon of the past ten years a place
simply for resort for those who want
the influence of similarity OF political be-
lief or the proximity Of their homes the
saloon appeals TO certain classes in every
locality. But the appeal it makes to
those is mere transStory one, and Is
forgotten Immediately amy substantial
change takes place In either the environ
ment or the daily habits of those to
| whom it is addressed
Indeed as general proposition 1t must
be acknowledged that men frequent che
saloons only to drink When they have
the facilities to drink i'm their own homes.
| or when they have places of resort where
| drink can be had other than the saloon
they may be less frequent In their at
tendance on the saloon; but they will
not be deprived of their appetite for
| liquor.
Everything which will lead to an i'm
provement in the social and moral level
and surroundings of the poorer classes
will work toward weaving the thought
less and weak patron of the saloon from
his love of drink, and lead the masses
generally to keep out of the saloons. but
| the saloon is here to stay. Places Of
public entertainment in which liquor is
the staple commodity offered for sale
will always prevail. Those of us who
wish to do away with the principal evils
which attach to the retail traffic in nQuor
must look to action along the lines
chosen by Mayor Rich If we hope to see
any substantial progress made In tnat

The experiment in saloon reguIat ION

the thoughtful consideration not only Of

poses with the cooperation Of the
licensed saIoonkeepers to put a stop to
selling liquor to minors and habitual
drunl0aIds and to the side Goor evil and
to regulate Sunday selling in a manner
that will be acceptable to the reasonable
part of the population whether friendly
or hostile to the saloon as business and
social institution. The saloonkeeper who
will not cooperate with his IelIow
salOonl1eepers and with the city awtlpori-
ties in putting an end to tho worst evils
of the business will be proceeded against
and If possible his place closed
Up to the present the efforts Of mayor

VALUE OF BEAUMONT OIL.

Mining and Metallurgy.
It's economic value is still a matter of
uncertainty, with the probabilities in fa-
vor Of the prediction that it will be long
time before large and profitable use will
be found forsyit. 1t does not admit of
profitable refining. for the reason that it
compares less closely with Pennsylvania
crude petroleum than with the residuum
OF the refining process after the naptha
and kerosene have been removed by dis
tillation. 1t is heavy with asphalt, giving
it specific gravity of 81 against ST
Tor ordinary petroleum. That it is very
low in useful volatile constituents war;
rants doubt that it admits Of profitable
refining by any process. This gives adj
ditional interest to the fact that COM
pany with a 2eapital of two and a half
millions has been formed to refine 1t.
Three refineries are to be built. From
the announcement 1t would appear that
more is expected In the way Of profit
from asphalt for roadmaklng and other
purposes and from the by-products Of
the operation than from naptha and illu-
minating OIL AS none of the existing
