Horses as Swimmer.

Deer and horses rank next to bears
in swimming powers. Deer swim
rapidly and gracefully. and it is not
uncommon for them TO cover a dis
tance Of ten or even fifteen miles in
the water. Horses are powerful swim
mers and have none OF the aversion
toward entering the water which is
often shown even by animals which
can swim well when forced to. a
number Of horses that were pastured
on the American side of the Niagara
river once swan in company across
this broad stream in order TO return
to their old stables. 1t may be useful
TO know that in crossing a body Of
water with n horse the best method,
if the horse is expected to swim any
considerable distance. is to slide over
his back, hold the animal lightly by
the tail and allow it to tow you across.
This relieves the horse OF the weight
OF the body and enables him to swim
faster and much farther than other
wise would be the case.

HAS BEEN A PRODUCER.
Pryor Farley Has Developed From a
Poor Boy to a Financial Factor.

There is Pryor Farley. He was
pointed out yesterday on the streets
during the time he remained in the
city awaiting a train for Tahlequah.
For one to admit that they don't
know Pryor Farley is to confess that
you never happened in the same town
ship with him during the same day.
Pryor has his supposed habitat at our
little sister city to the north where
artesian water sparkles from many
founts, yet he is going and coming
and has scores Of friends from the
western border of Oklahoma to Wyan-
dotte, and from Bluejacket to the
tide waters of Red river. lie is also
popular in the Goingsnake district
and has friends at Ada. Mr.. Farley
is interested in agriculture, horticul-
ture, oil and cattle. In addition to
being an authority on bee culture he
has accumulated much honey. Mr.
Farley's wealth has not been ac-
quired at the expense of somebody
else. He has been a producer and is
entitled to all the good things his
friends fay Of him, and his friends are
all whosknow him. At present he is
investing largely and devoting much
time to the development of the oil
lands in the Cherokee nation. He
was born in that nation and his
growth has been steady srom poor
boy to factor in the financial circles

FREEDMEN CASES

Attorneys for the Cherokee
Nation Open an Office at
MuskOgee.

"As a result of the visit OF Chief
Rogers to the capital this week, " says
the Tahlequah Herald, "the official
documents relating to the admission
of the freedmen to the Cherokee rolls,
as citizens, have been moved to Mus
kogee, and in the future all cases re-
lating to the rights Of freedmen to the
roll will be heard in Mnskogee.
"There are yet some 400 applicants
who have not been admitted by the
Dawes commission, and some 750 ap-
plications passed by the commission
which have not yet been passed on by
the Secretary of the Interior.
"There is rumor afioat that CHIEF
Rogers was not at all well pleased
with the manner in which the attor-
neys for the Nation, having charge OF
the freedman division Of the work
have heen attending to business, and
that he felt that the Nation was get
ting the worst the business, yet what
evidence the chief had in this connec-
tion was not diyulged.
"At any rate, the freedman will now
have to hit the pike for Muskogee and

charge of this division"

MEN ORDER DAINTYLUNcHEs
Are More Amenable to the Charge Of
Fussiness In Restaurants
Than Women.

Among ,-.e other popular fallacies
that are current aoout women" said
the manager Of a well-known restau
rant in this city, relates the Chicago
Tribune, is the one about women's
lunches. You never heard man yet
discuss the subject of women's lunches
without bringing in the old joke about
ice cream and chocolate eclaires. Sup
pose we watch here for few moments
and notice the difference between the
kind Of lunches that a man orders
and the kind that a woman orders"
The first victim was a man. He
came in. threw his overcoat on a near

about the stock market In his news
paper Then. as II suddenly remepi,
bering what he had come for, he
grasped the menu frantically and nerv-
ously ran his eye down the table OF
contents. The oroeal was too much
for him. Flinging the card impatient
iy aside he said o the waiter, in tones
that were Enthusiastically irritable:
Bring me a piece OF strawberry short
cake and a plate OF ice cream"
Two women followed the man. One
was a young woman who is employed
In a large commercial house, the other
q librarian in one OF the city libraries.
They drew OF their wraps leisurely,
gave a few adjusting touches TO hat
and hair, took of their gloves, and
studied the menu as IL 1t we're a pic

methodical way that showed that II
had been the result OF painstaking de-
liberation. Bring us a nice oyster pie,
two French rolls and a pot Of coffee, -
said the older woman, and then they
fell to discussing pleasant subjects.

Why We Want You to Com,

Why We Want You to Come
People who are not familiar with con-
ditions in the northwest become skepti-
cal about even conservative statements
concerning the great opportunities to be
found in this state, Gays the Devils Lake
Inter Ocean. These people think, with
some reason, possibly, that the glowing
accounts of the productiveness Of the
soil and the easy road to wealth. are the
overdrawn statements of land agents
and newspapers. Why, they ask, is it
necessary to urge people to settle in
such country. if things are as represnt-
ed? The answer to that question is the
very reason for the great efforts that are
put forth by the people of the north west
to secure additional immigration.
There is not one quarter section in
twenty-five in Williams county but what
will supper, family in comfort and per-
nit the laying away of a goodly, sum
each year for the proverbial rainy day.
There are nearly fonr Thousand quarter
sections in the county, and there should
b. at least three Thousand, five hundred
farms under cultivation by the owners.
If every quarter in the county were
titled by All owner there would be 90
muck more grain in the county to
market. and consequently there would
be more money in circulation,
merchants could Go greater volume Of
business and the county would be more
prosperous. Nor is this all. Land
values will increase in proportion to the
scarcity of the commodity on the
market. so that every quarter sold to .
bona fide farmer enhances the value of
all other land IN the community. It can
readily be seen therefore. that the cult
walton of every quarter, as we'll a. the
ownership of the same by one who has
a more than passing interest in the out
come, will materially advace the PROS
perity of the county. One thing is
needed to secure this condition, and
that is posperitv of the county. One
thing is needed to secure this condition
and that is people-progressive, ener.
getic, industrious people. These are
what the citizens Of this county want.
They want them because it will make
those already here more prosperous.
The i:lea ia selfish one. but those who
come will he identified far more than
those already here. We cann"t afford
to misrepresent, else those who come
and are disappointed will return and
spread the reports broadcast, to the ever
lasting injury Of the country. For
elfish reasons, If for no other. the truth
must be told about Williams county.
W. want such reports az Joshua and
Cabel brought back to the waiting
Issraelites, rather than the reports of
those whose carcasses rotted on the
plains.
