Dear Friend Mercer: l note
with pleasure that you are up
from your recent illness and out
again. My sympathy has been
with you and I was in position to
sympathize right for / have been
there tool mean had smallpox
and just want you to know that
you are not the only good fellow
who has been imposed upon and
left Scared hero. Mine hap
pened in the year 1900 but it
takes microscope to tell it now;
l trust you may as fully recover
and regain your handsome coun-
tenance as I did.

the same sympathy for the card.

you for writing it. But, if you
look as ugly as I did, then you
are due those officers and others
an apology for that card. People
who do not know better are sure
to judge by looks, and my exper'
fence was that they were more
afraid of me than the average
fellow appears to be of the Devil.
I had no one to tell me of how
much trouble / would have when
l got out, so to inform you is an
other object of this letter. | had
my case early, and most of my
Friends used to 60 another street

hundred yards away kept their
windows down. You could have
played marbles upon the coat
tails of a couple of tramps when
/ poked my head out of the win
dow early one morning, which
which was the only good l got
out of it. I was allowed out af-
ter 26 days but required to roam
the woods for two days. Ask r.
J. Prentiss, the insurance man
of your town, be went with me,
and he is no fool.
For a week l was allowed to
come to my Office, but had to

me.
Ten days after l got out / was
given the entire corner of pas

that l had the smallpox and I had
to send customers to his hotel

continue, but I reached the con-
clusion that some doctors, officers
and general public we're cranky.
Later, as / began to get better
looking, the people began to APP
pear to be not quite so cranky

The settlement Of tribal affairs

much Of Mr. Ryan's time recently
and among those who are familiar
with the situation in the territory
there is much speculation as to the

next March. Mr.. Ryan is very
optimistic regarding the future OF
Indian Territory and in his'estima

In speaking of the matter this morn

He REPLIES TO THE CRITICS
Mr.. Gasttins Talks about the Corn
Premium Awards.

Z. c. Gaetting who was one Of
the judges that made the award Of
the special premium on corn talked
to am EXPRESS reporter this morn
ing about the kick that was raised
OIL the award. E. E. Mcdowell
received the first premium and
Scott Jones bought the corn for
display purposes, paying so cents
a bushel for it. When the corn
was unloaded at the cotton ex-
change, it was found to be Of in
ferior quality Nearly every one
that saw it in the wagon was of
the opinion that there were several
other loads that had it beat.
Mr.. Gaetting says: we judg-
ed the load BY the corn that was
on top and had we known about
the ''nubbins' at the bottom, we
would certainly have given the
premium to somebody else. AS it
turned out, we would BE- glad to
change the award if it were posi-
bic. We didn't judge by the size
of the ears alone. and | still think
that this load, if it were shelied,
would weight out more than any
other load exhibited. However, l.
don't like the way Mr.. Mcdowell
fooled us and if it could be done
we would change the award"
