"SOOners" VIII Resist Lottery Scheme
to Locate In Oklahoma

"SOOners" VIII Resist Lottery Scheme
to Locate In Oklahoma.
A special to the Chicago Record-Herald
from Ell Reno. Okla, dated July 3, saws:
More than $4,000 boomers. camped and
quartered along the margins of the Kiowa
and Comanche lands about to be opened
for settlement, were thrown into a fever of
excitement and rage tonight when the news
circulated that thousand sooners have al
ready invaded the reservations and staked
out for themselves the choicest sections Of
land.
1t was the governments plan to distrib-
ute the 13,413 homestead claims by reuuir-
ing the qualified homesteaders to draw lots
The ''sooners," however, have determined
to fight what they call Uncle Sans lot
terry scheme Acting on this determina-
tion, they have assembled a number of le-
gal opinions, to the effect that the lottery
plan is illegal, and now they propose to
grab what they want the moment the Pres
idents proclamation is issued, and hold
their claims even to the extremity Of kill
ing those settlers who try to set up their
tents and claims upon tracts awarded In
the drawing.
Dozens Of the most desperate "sooners"
OF the Oklahoma boom are here armed to
the teeth and mounted upon fleet horses
They are coming in from the unallotted ter
ritory to spend the Fourth in town, and
some Of them openly boast Of having stolen
a march on the settlers who are waiting.
Many of the boomers, living in weather.
beaten tents and almost starving have
been here for more than a year waiting for
the opening Of the lands Some of them
have spent what little money they brought
to pay the government charges on the land
and now they are desperate with dfsap-
pointment, poverty and the final threat of
the soaners that all their waiting has been
in vain.
Meanwhile the army of waiting settlers
is growing daily. They are coming in over
the Rock Island and the Choctaw road In
wagons, on horseback and on foot 1t is
now estimated that there will be at least
$4,000 persons here to draw for the 13, 473
quarter sections that are already plated
and numbered for distribution. The tracts
will be awarded consecutively and numeri-
cally, the lowest number getting the first
choice.
to preclude all possibility Of run" into
the reservation, and therefore to prevent
the riots, murders and wrongs committed
in the Oklahoma run twelve years ago,
last man to draw as good chance as the
first, and stop any chance Of dispute as to
the legal ownership.
Anticipating the success Of the plan, the
land officials and the soldiers at Fort Sill
have made no effort to keep settlers out of
the land Of promise. The w-abiding ma
1ority OF the newcomers have not, how
ever, overrun the unallotted lands, for the
reason that they believed the whole mat
ter was to be question Of luck in the
drawings. The "sooners'' took the other
view. They have surveyed every inch Of
the ground and have already put their
stakes upon the choicest tracts They are
ready with fast horses to rush straight to
their goals. and, knowing the ground. they
will be able to distance the legal owners Of
any land they may want.

HAGERSTOWN NEWS GRIST.
Trouble With Water Company-More
Monuments for Antietam.

spectal Correspondence of The Evening Star.
HAGERSTOWN, Md, July 4. 1901
An embarrassing contention Tor thls
sweItering weather, is now on between
the Washington County Water Company
and Hagerstown's city officials. The water
board contemplates some important I'M
movements and extensions in Hagarstown,
which. IT is claimed. are delayed pending q
settlement between the city and the water
comnanv. The contention of the water
company Is that the town owes 1t 81, lUo
while the town claims the water company
is in its debt to the amount of $4,000 1he
water board has asked Of the city prompt
settlement and so the matter rests at pres
ent.
Hagerstown's population as given by the
new state census is 1884, against 1:',591
by the federal census. This is showing
of a loss Of 147 which is not attributed to
intentional wrongdoing of the federal emu
merators. who placed upon the list nom
residents who claimed to be entitled to vote
here.
Antietam battlefield is to be further
beautified in the near future by the erec-
ton OF thirteen monuments to conlmemo-
rate Pennsylvania soldiers. A bill has just
passed the legislature of that state, and Will
no doubt receive the signature of Gov.
Stone, appropriating $500 each to the fol-
lowing organizations. viz: The 45th, 4Sth,
0Dtn, olSt, ltntn, 1Z7ln, lZotn, lZStn, llotn,
132d and 137th Pennsylvania Infantry, and
18th Cavalry and Durelrs Battery.
Many of the farmers of this county who
have finished harvesting report a great deal
of scab in the wheat. Notwithstanding this
drawback, the yield will be large.
An alarming epidemic of typhoid fever is
raging at Maugansville five miles from
Hagerstown, a number of deaths having
occurred and eight cases being reported on
one street at the present time. All efforts
to trace its cause have failed. The water
used by the citizens of the town, and which
was supposed to be the cause Of the trou-
BILE. was, upon analysis. found to be per-
fectly pure.
Waynesboro' is to have another daily and
weekly newspaper. 1t is to be an independ-
ent republican journal. The first issue
will appear about August /, with Bruce

BLOCK ISLAND. r. l., July /, 1901.
1t may seem unkind to present to the
many who cannot come here the charms OF
being fifteen miles at sea, with constant
ocean breezes. even temperature and no
mosquitoes. Yet the welfare of others de-
mands the sacrtflce! Not least among the
numerous attractions are the varying views
OF mainland and marine scenery, unusual
at the shore. The Isle Of Manisses is dot
ted with lakelets and picturesque farms,
windmills and lighthouses The popular
sport of fishing affords a variety to it's
devotees. Bluefishing is all the rage, and
the famous Goldfish banks are within sight
OF the island. Swordfshing is exciting and
mackerel and striped bass yield to the
sportsman plenteously. In addition, the
ponds offer abundant harvests of fresh
water fish. And then the sailing! And the
exhilarating surf bathing, perfectly safe,
and the water Of the purest.
The island is reached by lines of steam
ers from New York direct, Norwich and
New London, Providence and Newport
