THAT OKLAHOMA WHEAT.
W. 8. Fulton Now Says Crop Is

To the Editor of the State Journal;
On April q your paper published an
article about the wheat prospects of
Oklahoma in which you used my name
as authority for the statement that
calamity was about to overtake the ter
ritory as result of the dry weather at
that time prevailing. 1 wish to correct
the impression which that statement
may have created, because wheat con-
ditions are by no means as serious as
stated.
AS for the Oklahoma farmers, their
prospects could not be better The men
who have settled the farms of Okla
horna have come to stay and more are
coming in weekly. Although the pres
ent spring has been somewhat dry re-
cent rains have placed the territory,
especially that part in and around
Woods county, in as good shape as It
mas ever been known to be. The indl-
cations are that this years crop OF
wheat will more than pay for the eN-
fensive improvements that have been
going on during the past year or two.
The farmers of Oklahoma have money
in the banks and are adding to their
bank accounts yearly. As whole the
farmer of Oklahoma is prosperous and

days session of the national conference

this morning with an Invocation by
Bishop Kelley of Savannah. The gem
eral schedule of the day was County
and Municipal Institutions" Outdoor
Relief and Nagrancy' and the commit
tee upon this branch of the work
through its chairman, c. L .Stonaker of
Denver, presented some resolutions.
William H. Allen, general agent of the
New York mission for improving tha
condition of the poor, delivered an ad-
dress. taking as his subject, Social
Parasite or Social Product"
The salient portion Of his address fol-
lows:
one phase of vagrancy infects a
a great menace to social welfare, the
source and support of the individual
vagrant and the stronghold of the dis
ease. / refer to the vagrancy of giving,
that tramp philanthropy. that superb
cial Samaritanism, that Vagrant inter-
est in ones fellOWmen which purchases
self cOmplacency, relief from annoyance,
reputation for generosity and spurious
mortgages on mansions in the skies,
from vendors Of hard luck stories, IN
ventors of mutilated limbs and exhibit
ors of moral and physical defOrmities-
The real vagrancy is the Vagrancy OF
intellect and sympathy whether the
gift be Il mite or a million. which at
tempts to obtain Subtraction entirely
out of proportion to the thought and
time expended in giving; which CON
fuses aims with justice and relief. It
+ is the recipient who is wronged not the
sible for an individual licensed citizen
on the street to prescribe for vagrancy
as for hydrophobia or typhoid fever
Our problem is primarily to convince
and correct this citizen giver rather
| than to convince and reclaim the tramp
We shall never be rid of the man who
would rather beg than saw wood; we
may hope to be rid Of the man who
| would rather give a nickel to a beggal
than send him to an agency which car
make him self supporting"
Other addresses on the general sub
ject of vagrancy We're given by Miss
/ Alice c, Willard of Chicago. James F
Jackson of Minneapolis, Joseph Forbes
of New York and Livingstone Minis oi
Atlanta. During the afternoon section

these precincts, Robert McLane, the Dem
