Mormons Plead.

Nine Of the eleven MOrmons
that were indicted some time
ago for polygamy, plead guilty
before Judge Sloan at Prescott
Tuesday, and their sentences
will be pronounced December
18th. They we're not present,
but were represented by their
attorneys
Those that plead guilty ac
knowledged at least technical
violation Of the anti-polygamy
law, known as the Edmunds
act. In cOnfessing their guilt,
they expect clemency from the
court on the ground that they
entered into polygamy before
the passage of the Edmunds
act, and that it would have
been inhuman on their part to
have discarded those wives in
excess of those allowed by law,
by whom children had been
born.
Those that plead guilty we're:
Joseph Fish. Of Holbrook, Jesse
n Smith, Joseph W. Smith,
SiIas Smith, of Snowflake, H.
M. Tanner, of St. Joseph, Da-
vid K. Udall, j. w. Brown.
John p Rothlisberger, of ST.

of the eleven that have decided
to fight their cases and the trial

Over in the Indian territory SINH
lar growth is taking place to that
which is taking place in Oklahoma,
with the difference that there has not
been any headlong rush such as marked
the opening of Oklahoma to settlers.
The conditions have been altogether
different, because there the lands have
been divided up among the Indians by
allotment, and there has been no oppor-
tunity for the homesteader.
Besides its agricultural and mineral
wealth, which is yet lonaway from
development, there is la5Re amount
of wealth in the Indian territory in
the shape of timber. There is a large
amount Of walnut timber in the terri
tory and it is in great demand. In a
number of localities it is being cut and
shipped to Germany and other foreign
countries. The Broken Arrow q. ID
Ledger says:
Another car of walnut logs was
shipped out from here this week. Since
the foundation of the town there have
been somewhere in the neighborhood
of fifty cars Of walnut logs shipped out,
many of which went direct to Ham
burg, Germany, to be used for veneer
ing purposes in furniture factories.
The others were all purchased by sew
/ Ing machine concerns turnout the
United States, to be used in veneering
sewing machines.
Walnut timber is now so scarce
that but little furniture OF other kinds
of woodwork are manufactured wholly
of it, but instead there is thin
veneering glued to, a body made of
bother kinds of wood This gives the
| walnut effect and makes the article
so made much cheaper one than were
it wholly Walnut

Gated stomachs. If they have growing
families the boys and girls are given
every opportunity to become educated
and cultured. There are no better
country schools and no better paid
country schoolteachers anywhere than
those you find here in Oklahoma.
Truly this is remarkable condition
to find In a country that fifteen years
ago was unbroken prairie. Yet today
this same country is thickly studded
with prosperous towns and cities, of
which this city Of Enid is an excel
lent example. Today Enid has a popu-
lation of about $4,000 or 10000 people
and is registering a steady increase OF
numbers every year.
Prosperity Based on Wheat.
AS a rule, it is generally safe to say
is based upon wheat, for: that is the
greatest crop that it grows, and in
early days of settlement was almost the
only one. There was reason for the
partlality shown. in the formative pc
Rod of the territory toward the wheat
crop. AS rule, the 4 early settlers
wanted the crop that they could most
readily find cash market for, and this
happened to be wheat. Then, SO boun:
tiful was the yield and SO highly did ii
grade, that it has remained the greatest
crop, in money value, at least, that is
grown here.
OF late years, however, the farmers
have been going in more for diversified
crops. and corn, castor. beans, and
fruit are extensively raised in this and
the adjacent counties. Farms will av
erage in size from few hundred acres

UNIVERSITY

FACULTY AND STUDENT AUDIT
ING COMMITTEE SUMMONS ITS
TREASURER.

There is excitement in "co-edo cir
cles at the university, for the treasurer
of the Woman s league, an organization
which includes practically every girl
in the college, has been summoned to
appear before the faculty and student
auditing committee. "a, -sssss.
The summons came yesterday and
altho there is no suspicionsof graft con
nected with the organization, the news
| that the auditing committee is to IN
clude the enterprises of the girls in its
investigation and supervision came as a
complete surprise.
In its attempt to raise money for a
| the Woman s league has been sponsor
for several enterprises in which the
financial management has rested en-
tirely with girl Students The publica-
ton of one issue year of the Mime
sofa Magazine was assumed by the
girls and an annual spring carnival has
been held in the interests of the WON
am building. It is expected that the
auditing committee is to investigate
the finances Of these understandings, and
as the girls in charge in many cases
have kept no books, there is something
Of q furry in league circles.
| The appearance of the treasurer of
the league before the auditing commit
tee will undoubtedly result in the install
| latlon OF a complete bookkeeping sys-
tenn, and there will be no objection to
this on the part of the girls. Any inves-
tigation of the past finances would, how.
ever, in the opinion Of many league
members, SAVIOR too much Of the recent
Gopher Investigations and would result
in undesirable publicity for some Of the
most active and efficient workers in the
organization. .H

usual sight in riding thru this country
to see wheat fields that contain any
where from 1000 to 1000 acres. Practi-
cally the whole of this and the ada
cent counties is under cultivation, and
all the government lands subject to en-
try have long ago been taken up. But
while free homesteads canot be OBJ
tanned in this part Of Oklahoma, there
are plenty of lands for sale. Prices
vary, of course, according to the quail
ity Of the land and it's location, but
compared with the prices that land Of
much inferior quality brings in Hill
nois, Iowa, or any Of the other great
agricultural states Of the middle west,
the prices are absurdly low.

There are something like a score of

are ample elevator facilities to take
care of all brought in. The -four indus

the milling capacity of the city is about
