srOcKnEN AND FARMERS WAR.
Bullet and Torch Add Color to Life in
Oklahoma.
CBy the Associated Press)

Guthrie, O. T, Aug. 9th war be-
tween the cattlemen and farmers in
Western oklahoma continues increasingly.
Information comes direct from Rogers
Mills, Day and Dewey counties, OF the
destruction of crops, burning of cribs and
grain and killing of stock and ambushinS
and shooting by both farmers and cattle
men.
The situation has been made more Sc
rious by the driving in of large nerds or
cattle from the Texas Panhandle by cat
tleman who have run short of grass at
home. The homesteaders fear q further
menace to their claims and allege they
have no protection.
Serious trouble is anticipated, the cat
tlemen asserting the land belongs 20
them by priority of possession and they
will light the encroachment by the home

To ARREST WOMEN
General Goblin Declares hat
They Shall Not Insult
the Troops.
(By the Associated Press.)

Tamaqua, Pa, Aug. 30.-Strike leaders
went from door to door in the Panther
Creek Valley last night spreading the
news of General Gobin's stern warning,
and his instruction to the men to shoot
and shoot to kill ii mOleSted in any
manner. That the words of the COM
manding officer have had at least q tenn
porary effect was shown today when che
troops escorted several hundred non
union men to work without being molest-
ed in any way. Companies E and F.
went out at daybreak with their guns
loaded and their best markSmen on the
flank. When the soldiers passed the
crowds of strikers on the street they de-
liberately turned their backs to them.
However,, there was no hooting or jeering.
experimenting his order of last night,
General Goblin has directed Major Gear
hart, in m here. to arrest all
women and girls who insult the troops in
any way. The opinion seems to prevail
among the officers and citizens that the
lull in the rioting viii last but a short
time. The fact that more men went to
work today than yesterday is not calcu-
lated to improve the temper of the
strikers.

Which encircled the edge of the track,
were turned off and from that time I'M

tai of 100 miles. This record ride Of Han
sens is the first Of its kind in the world.

Some really delude themselves into be-

1t was to encourage these independents

From Report Of a Michigan Timber
Expert.

To the Officers and Directors of Amer
lean Lumber Company, GIT Rookery
Bldg, Chicago. Ill.
AS agreed, | spent four weeks on
your lands situated in the counties OF
Mckinley and Valencia in the Terri
tory OF New Mexico. Your tract con-
tains two hundred ninety-two thousand
six hundred twenty-five and si~xty-three
one-hundredths acres of land. You
have a strip of land upon which Is
growing what is called Mesa timber,
running from the southeast to the
northwest. which will average from
three to six miles in width, and well
timbered. The timber will run from
1000 to 10 900 feet to the acre, from
two to four logs TO the tree, and from
six to twelve logs to the thousand This
timber can be numbered with trucks,
and for three months in he year with
sleighs. very economically, as there
are no roads to build, and the haul is
all down grade. The Cottonwood
tract" which runs from the northwest
to the southeast, about ten miles In
length and from -four to seven miles In
width. is a very fine grade OF timber IL
will average about fifteen TO twenty
thousand feet to the acre, and more
than % per cent OF lnlS tract 10 NSiS
choice timber, as it VIII only take from
two to three logs to the thousand ana
four to six 16-foot logs TO the tree, and
the above will average at least three
logs TO the tree, without a knot in
them.
Going from the so-called Cottonwood
Divide into the Bluewater territory,
found a tract of timber from five to ten
miles wide that will cut about ten
thousand feet 10 the acre. and the tim
Der is all very cnoice. 1t will run 20
per cent better than common.
Going thence 10 the southeast, we
find another tract from five to ten
miles in width. running somewhat sim
liar, but shorter than the tract last
above described, as the country is a
little more rocky and rolling. 1t is safe
! TO say, however. that it will cut from

eight to ten thousand feet to the acre.
The so-called Bear Mountain tract.
which runs from the south to the
northwest. runs to the northwest about
twenty miles in length and averaging
about five to six miles in width. l did
not have time to look this body of tim
Der over as carefully. but from the linn
tied time | think 1t will compare favor
ably with the best of the timber in size
and quality. On the southwest side of
the mountain you will find a vast
amount of good timber in the draws
running up the mountain. and all can
be easily and economically numbered.
The timber growing on your tract Is
thrifty. and very closely resembles our
Michigan white pine. | never saw a
tract of soft pine as free from punk

no shake) and because of the large per
cen that it will cut better than com
mon believe it one of the best II not
the best body of white pine standing,

Especial Correspondence


Barberton, July 15.-The astuteness
of the Barberton City Council is equal
to the craft attributed to Brer' Rabbit
in the fable. and typical exposition
of the foxiness of the City Fathers was
given at the Council meeting, Monday
night, when certain disputed measure
was carried through in cleverly diplo
matte manner.
Some time ago an ordinance author
izine the city to borrow $T11o.95 from
Mr.. James T. sheldon, to pay the city's
share of the street paving, was pre-
sented to the Council and passed ito
first reading. Mr.. McCarty was
strenuously opposed to the measure and
fought 1t with all LIS usual iinpetuos-
ity.
The friends of the measure bided
their time, and by clever ruse, sue.
ccedcd In securing the adoption OF the
| ordnance, unuer u suspension VI tuc
rules on Monday night. Mr.. McCarty
employment will not allow him to re-
main at the Council meeting later than
10 o'clock, SO other matters were
brought up and dalied over until near.
ly 10 o'clock, when Mr. Mccarthy
asked to be excused No inkling had
been given Of the intention to bring up
the ordinance to borrow money but it
was brought up at this point, and,
in the absence OF Mr.. McCarty, the
only member really opposed to the
measure, was carried through in short
order
Had this measure not been taken it
is probable that work on the Tuscarn-
was ave. paving would have been dis
continued until the money to pay the
contractors was forthcoming.
