Thus Il will be seen from the above
that the freight rates are higher in
Oklahoma and Indian territory than
they are in any OF the states surround
ing us. while poor old Arkansas, at
whom everybody delights in poking
fun. has the best rates of any Of them.
On the first Of September the above
rates were established The railroads
however. had attempted 70 raise the
rates like they are in Oklahoma and
Indian territory. but the railroad com
misslonors in those states prevented

worse and there is no way TO help it
until we become a state large enough
and strong enough to successfully com
bat the powerful influence Of the rail-
roads in politics.
In order to have such a state we
must have one composed OF oklahoma
and Indian territory The railroads
want statehood for Oklahoma alone
The reason is obvious.

Oklahoma and Indian territory are
at the mercy Of the railroads, and
the people are helpless in the matter,
and win remain so until we become a
state and have a railroad commission
and laws regulating such matters. Let
us call your attention particularly 10
the manner in which the railroads are
discriminating against Oklahoma and
Indian territory, and in order to do
so we will compare the rates charged
in Oklahoma and indian territory with
those charged in Kansas. Arkansas
and Texas. over the same lines Of rail-
road. =

SKETCH OF JACK LONDON.

Mr.. Jack London, the author of The
Call of the Wild, The Children of the
Frost and The Son of the Wolf, was born
in San Francisco on the 18th of January,
1876. His father, John London, nomadic
trapper, scout and frontiersman, came in
1878 to San Francisco, where Jack, the
youngest of ten half-brothers and sisters,
was born three years later. He once es-
sayed climb among the branches of the
family tree, and traced both parental
lines back to an American residence prior
to the Revolution. On his mothers side
he wound up with Priest" Jones, one of
the first settlers of Ohio and circuit
rider. On his fathers side he followed
the lineal branch to New Jersey. Later
