RETURNED FROM PORTLAND
The Only Indian Territory Deles 's at
Trans Mississippi Conesess

J. w. Speake returnea. this
morning from a trip TO Portland
and other points Of interest in TIE
west He had the honor Of being
the only delegate from the Indian
Territory at the great Trans
Mississippi Congress, being the
representative Of the Chickasha
commercial club. This congress
went on record for single statehood
for the territories.
Mr.. Speake spent several days at
the exposition and was well pleas
ed with it, although it does not
compare in magnitude with the St.
Louis exposition. Among other
sights witnessed was the successful
ascent Of one Of the cigar-shaped
airships. Notwithstanding the
reports OF cool Portland weather,
the Chickasha man found it dread
fully hot. This vas no doubt due
to the fact that he was accustomed
to the cool climate of this section.
Mr.. Speake spent some time at
Salt Lake, taking plunge in the
briny waters, and also stopped two
days in Denver.

Let love and your better self win you,
And follow them on to the goal.

That heaven is more than dream.
We fall in the moments of weakness, T.
Borne down by the passion of sin,
Acknowledge the error with meekness
And strengthen the guard from within.
The lusts Of the brute we inherit
Must cover and shrink from the light
That flows from the throne of the spirit
And shows us the path to the right.
I know not the kingdom immortal;
Yet feel in my innermost soul
That Deaths not d wall, but portal,
Thru which lies an infinite goal.
I know not the glory supernal, F.
Nor paths that the angels have trod;
Yet something within is eternal
And grows in the sunlight Of God. -
know with the wisdom of Sorrow,
4 The lessons I've learned by the way;
The fruits that we gather tomorrow
Are gr0Nn from the seeds of today.
Ltfe's page we have blotted and checkered
No power on earth can restore;
We write indelible record, --.
To blight or to bless evermore.
With voices seraphic and tender
Our loved ones are calling afar,
With light that is golden in splendor,
Truth shines like mystical star.
The veil of the Silence is riven,
The banner of Hope is unfurled;
= And Love, thru the portals Of heaven
llumines the night of the world
