WIDOW WINS RIGHTS
Claim of Mrs Wood 10 Lapd Adjoining
LawtOu Held TO be CsoOd.

Lawton, O. T.. June GA telegram
received here yesterday stated that the
commissioner Of the general land Office
at Washington City had finally passed
upon the protest and contest in the claim
OF Mrs. Wood. The protest and contest
Of Christie, the will-o-wisp well digger,
was overruled in all points. says the
State Democrat. and the decision of the
commissioner of the general land Office
was in favor Of Mrs. Wood in all things.
This action is final. and it can be said
that within the next ten days the claim
OF Mrs. Wood VIII be free. This Is due
to the fact that while thu commissioner
of the general land Office has passed upon
the case. his findings and rscommenda-
tons must go to the secretary CT the in
terror. The appeal from the land Office 1T
this place is 10 the secretary of the in
terror. but the general commissioner
passes upon the case. and the secretary
simply afIirms his findings. So the Wood
case is practically settled and the Chris
tie claim is no more. This means that
the Woods addition can now be thrown
open within the next few days.
Information was also received from
Washington City that the department
lad taken up the application of Miss
Beal TO commute her entry and it had
been approved IN all things and the only
question was whether the survey for the
plat had been properly made.
The question is only a formal one and
there is hardly any doubt but the appli-

PNEUMONIA A DISEASE.
Now Known to Be the Most Dreaded
Disease.

New York, Jun Thames J. Walsh,
PHI. D.. N. D., writes:
The subject that attracted the most at
tention at the annual meeting Of the
American Medical Association, which
closed its sessions IN Saratoga on Friday.
was the increase Of pneumonia. While
every other disease is less frequent than
formerly, while the dreaded consumption
is much less fatal than it was even ten
years ago. pneumonia claims more vic
TINS every year.
We hear much of the rayages of diph-
iberia, the whole country is disturbed
by the thought of smallpox. but at their
worst these diseases are only trivial fac
tors in the death rate OF our cities and
pneumonia is responsible for about one
in seven of all the deaths that occur.
Pneumonia is often supposed to be lin
tied to cold weather. 1t is actually more
frequent in the Spring and Fail, but it
may occur at any season. There is
scarcely month in the year when pheu-
monia causes less than one-tenth of all
the deaths in the large cities. Nothing
can be done apparently TO stop it.
In the last quarter Of century the
death rate in the large cities has been
cut in two. Only about one-half as
many people in proportion to thenumber
ofpopulatiQn die nov, every year in New
York. for instance. as in the year 1870
The better stare Of affairs IS due to
Improvement in the sanitation of cur
large cities But the sanitary improve
ment has not affected the progress Of
pneumonia in the slightest degree.
There is no drug that viii shorten the
course Of pneumonia much less cure
the disease. The only thing to do IS to
care for the patient unintermittenly so
as TO tide him over the crisis of the dis
ease. Notwithstanding all the study given
to the disease physicians confess that
they are no more successful in treating
pneumonia than they were fifty years
ago.
Taken all in all. nearly one out Of five
of patients attacked by pneumonia viii
die in spite OF every care lavished on
them and IN defiance of the highest med
icaI skill
Il is clear. then, that the question Of
the prevention Of pneumonia is the most
urgent problem before the physicians of

EUGENE GILL
Alexander of Hobart Appointed
as Secretary
OF DEMO. HEADQUARTERS
His Authority to Act lndepen-
IDENTIFY Is Questioned.

Guthrie, o. T, June 21.-Mose Anderson.
chairman of the Democratic campaign
committee came over from Enid for an
hour this afternoon and announced that
W. L. Alexander of Hobart had been Sc
Iected for secretarw of the committee, to
take charge of the campaign work at once
Anderson claims that he was. delegated TO
select a secretary. Other members of the
committee state that Anderson is in a
false position and that they should have
had voice in the naming of secretary.
Alexander is in reality an Oklahoma
man, and was formerly treasurer of Ok
lahoma county. During the past few
months he has resided in Hobart and calls
that city his home.
At the meeting of the territorial COM
mittee at the Cross ratification meeting,
il was the sentiment of the members of
the committee that Eugene Gill, Logan's
county candidate for secretary should be
named. Afterwards. It is claimed Ander-
son was given the power 10 name the
secretary which he did.
Headquarters have been arranged for in
the Hirsch building on Harrison avenue,
and campaign work will be commence at
once by Secretary Alexander. Anderson
after having made the arrangement of the
selection of secretary returned to Enid
on the afternoon train. He assisted. while
here in selecting a place for committee
headquarters.
Whether Logan county will protest
against the selection of another man for
the place when they were for GIL. is ques-
tioning able. There were some bitter COM
ments on the streets this afternoon, and it
seemed to be the concenssions ofoin

that Anderson was presuming to have

The general land Office also cleaned up

This IS glorious news for the city OF
Lawton. The throwing open Of these

strangers are in the city means that the

that the citizens Of I.awton viii have

Judge Roberts Feels That He
is Gaining Ground.

Guthrie, o. T.. June z1-From indica-
lions at this time there viii be no fight
over the preliminary and permanent or
ganizations in the congressional conven-
ton at Enid so far as is known there are
no candidates announcing themselves for
the chairmanship. A plan was suggested
here today in a conference Of party lead
a-s. for the six candidates who have been
mentioned in connection, with the nomina-
tion to meet some time before the conven-
ton and decide upon he preliminary or
ganization and make the preliminary or
ganization permanent. This plan would
do away with a fight in the opening OF
the convention. There is absolutely moth
ing that any one candidate could hope 10
gain by making fight for the organiZa-
ton. Just as soon as if was known that
the friends Of one candidate were making
g. fight for the organiza ton, the other can
didates would undoubtedly outline cam
paign whereby man of their own choos-
ing would be placed in charge Of the gath

zauon before the convention would start
