Anyone at the belated south-bound

could have seen United States Attor-

s~ouldered a package Of books and
hurried into the train as it started.
Mr. Speeds Office is at Guthrie.
Some time ago he needed some newly
published legal treaties and ordered
them from an Eastern publishing
house. Imagine his surprise a few
days ago on receiving a notice that
they were in the Ponca City express
office a letter from the house was
also received notifying him that his
order had been filled and shipped to

veal might form a subject for 9ery

promoted by policy which looks to
the public veal OF the entire mass,
but whether business should stand
first and the principles Of good gov.

matters are SO we'll stated by two
speeches delivered on Lincoln night
