TEN COTTON GINS
Pawnee County Preparing for an I'M
mehse Cotton Crop.

Guthrie, O., T.. April 1.-THE Pawnee
Dispatch, in telling Of the cotton in Paw
nee county, says;
The cotton crop Of Pswnee county has
been OF such magnitude in past seasons
that the number OF gins now in the coun-
y have not been OF sufficient capacity 10
care for il conveniently. and it is now IN
derstood that there viii be several more
gins in the county in time for this sea-
sons crop. Pawnee win have two gins;
Glencoe two; Jennings one; Cleveland
one; Blackburn one; Ralston one and
Skeedee one, making ten new cotton gins
in the county.
This ought to make competition in cot
ton buying hot enough for the most ar
dent advocate Of the competitive sys-
TEN; and win without doubt make cotton
in Pawnee county sell for considerably
greater price than would otherwise be
the case.
Cotton was the best crop in Pawnee
county last year. and Pawnee county
can always be depended upon 10 make
sure crop of cotton. Every farmer who
is in a position 10 do so should consider
carefully whether it will not be 10 his in
terest 10 plant some cotton this year.
Those who understand the cotton bust
ness say that II every farmer in the
county would plant forty or fifty acres Of
cotton It would bring southern pickers TO
the fields here, and reduce the cost Of
picking the crop considerably.

Robert J. Ray Of Lawton, asking for a

Bruce. W. Z. Pierce, W. s. Cash and
G. W. COnney. The men mentioned con-
stitute the election board to canvass the
votes at the election and announce the
result Of the said election. This the
members of the old city council refuse to
90, and as a result of their inaction. there
are two councils attempting 10 do busi-
ness in Lawton. This condition of affairs
is the result of the controversy between
Mayor Leslie p. Ross and others, over
the calling of the election which is the
usual custom in the territory. Ross con-
tended that the special election held last
fan entitled the officers elected at that
time to hold over for two years. or until
the next regular election OF mavor and
officials. which is next spring. The case
was taken into the supreme court, and
is now followed by the petitions asking
for the writ of mandamus. The supreme
