termingling OF public and private
lands and the fragmentary character
of some of the pubic lands, are SO
surrounded by private lands owned or

sale of the same would be at distinct
disadvantage to the Government and

Practically It Is found that many
persons will pay a rental representing
a larger value than the purchase price

return the best results in revenue,

REPUBLICAN ROW.
Republicans Kick on Buying Support
Of a Populist Paper.

The territorial campaign committee
is involved in a quarrel with local
Republicans because of he alleged
payment Of $3.50 and the promise of
as much more TO the Guthrie Regis
ter for its support of b s. Mcclure,
the Republican candidate for congress.
The Register says il is independent in
politics. its avowed mission being to
champion the cause of the school land
lessees In its last issue it urged the
election OF MCGUIRE, for the reason
that his election would bring immedi-
ate statehood and an early opportunity
for the lesseeS to ascertain their final
rights to the school lands held by
them under lease The Register com
mitted itself to the support of the Re-
publican ticket in Logan county. but
declared its opposition to J. c. Foster,
Republican candidate for councillor,
and w. II. Merten, candidate for the
lower house. alleging that their nomi-
nations We're brought about by self
imposed bosses and through vicious
methods Cunningham was a candi-
date for the nomination given to
Foster The nomination OF Merten
prevented the nomination Of ex.Gov-
ernor Barnes.
Application was made to the Repub
lican campaign committee for $500
as compen alton to the Register for
its support of Mcguire and the county
ticket This was opposed by mem
bers Of the committee, who felt that
the Register should receive nothing
unless it supported the whole ticket
The matter was left finally TO the
chairman. Mr. Cade. who held a con
ference with Mcclure last Sunday
Judge Foster said publicly yester-
day; Il have positive evidence that
the Register has been paid $3.50 by
the committee If every man must
stand for himself in this fight I am
able to take care of myself. That the
territorial committee should lend aid
to any person to support part of the
ticket and to knife the other is un-
heard of in decent politics My
friends have contributed to the cam
paign fund and do not purpose that
their money shall be used in sending

Now hear what Mr. Flynn had to
say on the other side Of the question,
when he was supporting the Moon
bill to create the territory Of Jener-
son last summer The house commit
tee on territories. Of which Mr.. Flynn
was a member, IN It's report uses this
language:
The real estate in the Indian ter
lritory is at present exempt from tax
alton. the title to the whole body Of
the lands outside Of the towns being
yet in the Indian. but the taxable
property is sufficient to support ter
ritorial government The following
data obtained from reliable sources
give a conservative estimate OF some
of the PROPERTY subject TO taxation:
Ninety incorporated towns including
only about $4,000 of the population,
have an assessed valuation OF taxable
property Of twenty millions Of dol
lars. A conservative estimate of the
taxable value Of incorporated towns
Is five millions Of dollars There are
one and oDehalf million head Of cat
tie; 100000 head of horses: $4,000
head Of mules about 400 600 hogs
and 25.OOO head Of sheep Thefe is
invested in coal mining and coke oven /
about four millions Of dol !
lars There are 1,415 miles Of rail- 1
roads now in operation and about 800 {
miles now under construction. A con-
servative estimate Of the entire tax
able wealth Of the territory could not
be less than sixty million dollars. No
is made on corn. wheat. oats
and cotton which are also extensively
produced in the territory"

Practical Points for Young people

A graduate Of the old line colleges
and universities is not so well OF from

young man with a common school ed
ucation capped off with an up to date
business and shorthand course. The
former has not learned to do anything
in scnool that a business man can
afford TO pay for The latter has He

quick and accurate m figures, writes

operates the typewriter rapidly, can
do the general work of an office, in
Guiding bookkeeping, banking. CORE
spondence. etc.
The graduate of the unive sity has
certain culture, but it ia not of a
marketable kind. He writes a fearful
serawl and is proud or it. cannot
even operate typewriter He is not
quick and accurate in business arith-
metic. He rebels at the discipline of
the business Office necessary to teach
him practical sense. Many such are
too lazy to work and too pcoud to be
poor.
For those who have the money and
time a university course is superla-
lively good but II should always be
coupled with a business training.

J The Havemeyer sugar trust reaps a

But is it right. that these business
