OLD SWORD DISCOVERED
One Used Long Ago Found in Okla
homa

Guthrie, o. T.. March 2s-An old
sword has turned up in Oklahoma. Il
was discovered by Ed Merchant Of the
Cleo Chronoscope. He writes:
God bless the province of Carolina
is inscribed upon a sword now in the
possession Of Colonel J. n. snedeker It
was the sword of his grandfather. Major
Garrett Snedekerfi and was carried in
the war OF 1872 He was in command
OF North Cardinals troops and the sword
waved many a charge and evolution ia
some Of the principal engagements Of
that second struggle for independence.
The sword is 80 inches in length, dia-
mond blade and taperfng evenly from
hilt to point The hilt IS solid silver and
the grip twisted silver wire, while in the
groove depression in the center Of the
blade appears the inscription first quot
ed, in straight English letters. The
blade has been beautifully Damascened.
but age and wear has almost obliterated
the pattern, and wholly so the makers
date. Colonel snedeker had it from his
father that many times the blade has
been rolled back in bend until the point
touched the hilt.
The inscription places the date of the
sword prior to North Carolina taking her
place in the sisterhood of states. This
means that it is at least 125 years old.
Granting that it may have been made the
first year of the settlement of the senior
colony, which was 1851. and the swords
age could be asily placed at $50 years.
Colonel Snedeker has no history of it
prior TO 1922.

SWINDLERS
OPERATING
Making Promises for Money
That Cannot be Kept
Mr.. SPEED GOES WARNING

ComanChe Country.
Mr.. SPEED GOES WARNING

Guthrie. Q. T, March 26-Au kinds Of
schemes have been originated to defraud
people since the announcement that the
Kiowa and Comanche country would be
opened up for settlement. Letters are be
ing sent out by agencies winch state that
they viii secure claims for old soldiers
and others on the payment Of certain
sums OF money. Despite the fact that the
newspapers have been telling Of the
frauds and warning people not TO be tax
en- in by any schemes OF this kind. the
swindlers have been reaping a rich har-
vest right along.
/ Regarding the matter. United States
District Attorney Horace Speed stated to
the correspondent for the Eagle this az
4 ternoon:
"Since this metho- Of swindllng has
/ been going on letters have come TO my
notice which indicate at something like
I s., 900 has been paid out by people to
/ agencies which advertise that they can
secure claims for settlers in the Kiowa
and Comanche countries, and especially
so for old soldiers. One county in Iowa
has people who have pa.u out over $500 in
this manner and they viii get nothing in
return for their money. 1t is a big fraud
and some of these lays the people who
are doing this WORK will land in court and
that viii be a conviction, as we have
positive proof Letters have been pour
ing into this Office wan newspaper clip
pings attached which tell Of the schemes,
1t---
paid in. q course it is probably too late
to do much so far as the money is con
cerned. There are three such agencies
working over the country that we know
of and the amount of money that they
have taken in must be large. Since in
one particular Office the amounts receiv-
ed have reached the S. GOO mark. what the
entire swindle amounts to must be very
large indeed.
The letters being sent out make state
ments which are absolutely false. They
say that things VIII be done which can
not be accomplished in 49, world. This
kind of a talk brings money, suppose,
but there is not a word Of truth in II,
however. One man is said to have stated
that he hao a large number of people to
file for. ut how he is going TO do it no
one knows.
The newspapers and TIE officials at
Washington know everything that has
any bearing regarding this matter OF
opening the new lands. and as soon as
there is anything of any Importance 7
whatever it is spread broadcast for the /
benefit of the people who desire to locate /
in the new country. There is no more re- /
liable source OIL news regarding the land /
that that at Washington. and yet people /
viii get taken in just the same by some /
little letter which makes promises that 4
no man can fulfill
Some Of the letters which come to US

PROTECTION
NEEDED ON
THE BORDER
United States Officers Urge a
Farmers Organization
TO PROTECT THEIR STOCK
Against Characters FIocking
Towards New Country.
TO PROTECT THEIR STOCK

Guthrie, o. T., March 2s.-"The people
living in the counties bordering on the
Kiowa- Comanche lands must organize if
they would protect their stock from the
thieves who are now hocking into that
country waiting for the opening of the
lands" said a United States officer in
this city today. 1T is known to be a
fact that these men OF doubtful reputa-
ton are focl1ing to these counties with
no other purpose than of driving off
horses and cattle when the propert time
comes and if the people want any peace
they must get together. They should
organize in every township and keep the
thieves out of the organization In this
manner they con be of benefit to each
other and this VIII have the effect of
making the men be quiet 1t will be a
repetition Of the earlier days if an organ
ation in each county is not perfected
and the people who have been through
things of this kind would not care to
have it repeated.
Previous to every opening the country
fills UP with people who go there with
no other idea than of stealing horses
and cattle. The rush is so great that
it is impossible to catch any Of the guilty
persons unless there is some organized
effort The sheriff Of the counties are
usually many miles away and 1t is next
to impossible for this Official to act in
time to do any special good in recovering
stolen property. The men who are work
ing for these opportunities are going
into Washita county, Roger Mills county.
Custer county, Canadian county and
many Of them are now in the Chickashaw
country.
1T would be the same if the Usage
country was to open up. Horses and
cattle in the counties Of Kansas on the
line would be run off and the only way
that people could protect themselves
would be to organize.
This is the solution Of the problem,
which is not a small one by any means.
given out by the United States officers. /
They have been looking into the matter
extensively during the past few weeks
and that is the conclusion that they have
come to in regard to the proper means
for protection.
The officers figure that it would not
take much work for the organizations to /
be formed and in a short time everything !
could be wei arranged for active work.
