 Der of the School Board.
Valentine, Terney and Jourden Are Elected Members of the Council, and Miller Member of the School Board--A ROtly Contested E!eCtion--Repeat-

votes were dug up in some manner or other. Hence it is that some simple mnded people think that quite large number of men must have voted sev- eral times.
 The polls opened this morning at 5 o'clock and closed at p. m. A steady stream of voters thronged the polling place between those hours, although the activity was not particularly notice- able until we'll along in the morning. After II o'clock the free and intelligent began showing up thick and fast, and the throng never ceased until the hour of arrived.
 There was very little, if any, dis order during the day. Chief Jolley and number of police officers were on duty and good order was preserved. Occasionally an obstreperous voter wanted to relieve his pent-up feelings, but, if he did, it was done in d manner that caused but little excitement.
 There are many who claim that the large vote polled is not to be wondered vt, and that very little repeating was done. It is urged that many men who were not entitled to vote last spring had established their residence, hence the big vote.
 The men who have been elected are all good men, and they will without doubt prove themselves worthy of tho confidence that has been reposed in them. st~s s -.s. -

 The apron and necktie social given by the ladies of the Odd Fellows Club at the Golden Gate hall last Wednes- day evening was an eminent success, socially, fraternally and financially. About l20 couples were present. That spirit of fraternity and sociability, so characteristic of the royal hosHtality of the Odd Fellows, prevailed through out the entire evening without inter- ruption. An informal march was had at 9:30, during which the aprons and neckties were distributed, the 1Ommit- tee reversing the usual custom by giv- ing the aprons to the gentlemen and the ties to the ladies. Then . brief time was given for the guests to match eolors and find their partners for the evening, after which the grand march was started. and the program was car ried out to the end. The wearing of the small aprons by the gentlemen was the occasion for much merriment. One longtime Mason present thought, when he first entered tho hall, that he

Today's municipal election was hotly contested. It resulted in the election of Valentine, Tierney and Jourden for the council, and Miller for the school board, by the above vote: l, ,43l votes in all being cast.
 The above is the result of the cleo tion today for three councilmen and a school trustee to fill existing vacancies in the respective bodies.
 A most remarkably large vote was polled-l, ,43l votes. The number is so large, in fact, that it has furnished ground for the statement that a good deal of repeating was done.

0lES0N SOLD A LOT
Now Part of tIae School Grounds and Samuel L.. Reed now Claims that Ne Is the Owner Of a One-half Undi- yided Interest in the Real Estate.

According to the allegations in , complaint. which will be fled in the office of the clerk of the distri' t court, when the school board pur- chased one of the lots now occupied by the $lO,OOO school house, they bought a "pig in poke"
 The suit referred to is brought by Samuel L. Read againt c. E. Bayles, and Read alleges that when A. Oleson sold the lot which was acquired by the school board for the sum of $500, he solh interests that did not belong to Aim.
 Read in his complaint. says that the lot in controversy was located jointly Ay Dan Mcdonald, William Emery, Ed Smith and Oleson in 1899, and that in February, 1900, he purchased McDOn- aid S and Emery's interests, took pos session of the lot and building upon it and resided there until November of this year. Read therefore claims an undivided half interest in the lot, it appearing that Oleson owned but one- fourth. Although the records in the pecOrder's office show that the tit}e was in Oleson's name, Read alleges that Mcdonald and Emery were owners of the lot in common with Oleson.
 The contractor for the building of she school house, c. E. Bayles, is the defendant to the suit, he being in actual possession of the property in controversy.
 Read, 1t is claimed, was absent from town when Oleson sold the lot.

The grounds upon which Schrive.

were void, because the law is that
the judge shall designate the time
at which the court shall convene and
the term il shall continue at this place.
The order OF the Court of Appeals
at South McAlester was that Judge
Thomas should hold term of court
as designated by Judge Townsend 50
the applicant claims. Furthermore.
that the sentence was an excessive
one inasmuch that it provided that
the prisoner should remain incarcer-
ated until the fines and costs are paid,
while the law makes no such pro-
vision, as any one under the law after
serving thirty days can make an affi-
davit that he is unable and too poor
to pay the fine and they will then be
