THE UDDELL -PURYEAR FEUD
HAD ITS ORIGIN IN LIDpELL KILL.
ING AT THAcKERVILLE.
Frank Puryesr Shot Down in Gaines
vile by Vernon Liddell-The
Former Was Hunting Trou-..
bic and Found u.

The Gainesville Register today will
say that in a street duel on Commerce
street late yesterday evening Vernon
IAddell shot and instantly killed
Frank Puryear.
Bad blood had existed between them
ever since the killing Of younG Lid
dells brother in the Territory some
time ago, and Puryear has been look
ing for Liddell ever since.
Yesterday both parties happened in
town and became aware of each 9TH
er's presence.
Puryear rode up and down the
street in front of Easterwood &
Wright's saloon for an hour or more
while Liddell was staying inside to
keep out Of his reach.
Liddell finally came to the street,
with Winchester in his hand and inn
mediately began to pump lead at his
antagonist
Four shots took effect and Puryear
fell from his horse mortally wounded,
but managed to raise and fire four
shots at Liddell with a sixshooter, all
OF which went wild of its mark.
The duel was one of the old style
and the street which was thronged at
the beginning was like a graveyard in
minute.
Puryear died in few moments.
Liddell is in jail charged with muir
der.

TAXES AND STATEHOOD.


The Leader says: THE statehood
question has a vital connection with
taxes. Single statehood means low
taxes. Separate statehood under the
omnibus bill means high taxes. Why?
Because under single statehood there
will be twice as much proper subject
TO taxation as there will und state
hood for Oklahoma alone. to ex-
pense Of the large state will 1t be
much more than the expense o. the
small one and there will be twice the
property subject TO taxation. Every
man who has paid taxes understands
this II is sheer nonsense to talH Of
increased taxes under single state
hood
The taxable wealth OF indian Terri
tory is now about s6O.OOO.O,a Okla.
homa about s7O.OOO,OOO. The certain
ty Of the Immediate increase n the
taxable property Of the Indian Terri
tory in excess Of the gain in Oklal oma
within the next year at once destroys
all the powwow about the poverty Of
Indian Territory.
n higher taxes is what the people
want Mr.. Flynn has proposed an cx-
.cellent plan for getting It and Mr. Nc
CURE has indorsed that plan as
his choice In the event that we are to
have statehood at all.
However, II low taxes are what the
people want let them use their ballots
and influence TO secure more property
to bear the burdens OF supporting a
state government
II seems difllcult to see how a tax
payer could be mislead by the falla-
cious argument Of the republican
campaigners into believing that he
would have to pay less tax to support
statehood for Oklahoma alone. with
$70000,OOO OF taxable property. than
he would II both territories we're com
bined with immediate taxable wealth
of $l30,00O,OOO with the certainty that
taxable property in Indian Territory
will triple in five years
If taxpayers want low taxes. now is
the time to act; not wait untn the deed
IS done and then kick. That will do
no good. It Is a poor time 10 lock the
barn after the horse is stolen.
All in the world that is needed is
for voters to get at the taxable wealth
of the proposed state under the two
plans, and then do little quiet fig
uring on their own account and i'm

to be their conclusion from the eco
nomical standpoint as we'll as every

The safety of the best interests Of
the states and nation have always

tlon of this statehood problem.

School hall of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church. A delegation was pres
ent from each of the leagues in the
Group and the hall was fairly crowd
ed with enthusiastic young people.
DR.. Hurlbut, the pastor, extended
a welcome to the leagues, and res
ponse was given by the Rev. Frank
Mead, of Chatham. The address of
the evening was by DR.. @. F. Sitterly,
of Drew. on the subject of mis-
sions." He showed that the Epworth
League is, more fully than most of
its members realize, missionary in
stitution, destined to do great work
in the conversion and civilization of
the world.
After the address, Miss Leek, of
Morristown, sang solo, which was
finely rendered and greatly enjoyed.
Refreshments of cake and cream were
then partaken of and afterward, a
speaker was called upon for two
minute address. from each of the
seven leagues represented. This part
of the program though an after
thought, was received with loud ap-
plause by the audience.
In every respect, of numbers, of en-,
thusiasm, of sociability, and of enjoy
ment, the rally of Group Seven was
completely successful and reflects
great credit upon President Beach
and his associates ON the Committee
of Arrangements.
