FARMERS ARE
ORGANIZING
For Different Purposes t h e
Land Workers Meet.
MAY CONTROL PRODUCTS
Conjecture Is Rife Over What
Will Be Result.
MAY CONTROL PRODUCTS

Guthrie. o. T. April From all over
Oklahoma comes the word that organi-
zation. aEaong the farmers is the rage
There are good roads associations. horti-
cultural associations. melon raisers' asso-
Citations and others too numerous to men
ton. An organization known as the
United Far7neSs association seems to be
the most popular and some of the coun-
ties have Councils in every township.
Some people are wondering what will
happen when the farmers all get into one
organization controlled by one head like
the steel trust. Here in Guthrie the most
interest attaches to the Good Roads as
sociation for the two territories that was
organized here last week. The business
men express a determination 10 set be-
hind the farmers TO push this movement.
1t is claimed that good roads would add
immensely to the value of Oklahoma and
the Indian territory as a desirable place
in which to live.

Heroic Measures Are Necessary to
Stamp Out Disease

Guthrie, O. r. April Thomas Morris
secretary of the Territorial Live Stock
Sanitary commission. last week received
notice that cattle affected with the mango
had been shipped from jefferson in Grant
county to Kansas City. The inspector
sent there TO make examination has re-
turned and reports that he found mango
among the cattle on the farm Of W. f.
Wolf. six miles east Of jefferson. The
farm was placed under quarantine regtI-
lations and the Rock Island was ins-
structed 10 disinfect its yards at Jeffer-
son. The inspector reports that he could
md no other evidences of mango in that
locality.
Inspectors will be sent to any other
point if complaints are made about the
mango Secretary Morris is determined
10 keep the disease from spreading in
Oklahoma. He says that NJ. c. Campbell
was scolded a good deal for taking heroic
measures to eradicate the disease in west
ern Kansas some time ago. but that ex-
perience has shown that Mr. Campbens g
action was the only thing to do in such
cases.

COMPLAINT FROM COMANcHE.
colored School Children Said to Be
Denied School Privilege.

Guthrie. O. T, April 4.-CoHplsint has
been filed with Governor Ferguson that
the colored children in Hastings are not
allowed to attend the public schools.
Hastings is located in the southeast cor
ner OF Comanche county The matter
was referred by the governor to Attorney
General Simons, who viii at once make
investigation.
The laws Of the territory provide that
separate schools shall be provided for
the white and colored children, and the
complaint sets ont that the commission
ers made provisions for but one school
and the whites have taken possession Of
that and will not allow any colored chill
dren TO attend.
Attorney General Simous said today he
would take no action until he had inves-
tigated and found whether there was any
ground for the complaint. He said the
law provided FOR the schools for the coll
ored children but he thought il well 10
find out why no provisions had been made
for them. in case none have been made.
There is nc trouble about the colored
children going 70 school pretty much all
over the territory, because they have
their own schools.
