OKLAHOMA GROVE

FINES WHEA f.
The first car of wheat reached Kan
cas city from Kay county this week
and was graded the very finest No. 2
by the inspector. There is something
a little strange about Oklahoma wheat,
in that wherever It goes every yesr It
goes to the top OF the market. The
whole world was surprised when iS
1898, Oklahoma took the first prize on
wheat Not a few people at that time
had to gooto the map TO fnd where
Oklahoma was located And even
then, if the map chanced to be an old
one, the place could not be found. The
wheat raisers Of the Northwest open
ed wide their eyes and emitted fierce
epithets concerning the young upstart
that had stolen their prestige and
made dire threats against the judges
but Oklahoma wheat had come into
the market on top sFd come to stay
The people Of the territory then re
garded the news as too good to be true
and could scarcely believe their eyes
as they saw the badge OF highest
award fastened on that sack OF Okla
homa wheat at the great Chicago fair
Since then Oklahoma wheat has re,
ceived so many awards and has taken
such unQuestioned rank as the very
finest grown that to receive a high
compliment on account Of our excel
lent wheat no longer creates surprise,
but is considered quite the proper
thing.
with such wheat as this TO grind It
is not strange that the mills Of Okla
homa find their -four in such demand.
Oklahoma started good record on
flour at Chicago in 1898, taking second
prize and Il transplred afterward that
the miller who took FIRST prize used
Oklahoma wheat TO make the -four
The record has been maintained and
the mills have been improved. until
now there Is absolutely no place on
earth where better wheat is grown and
better -four made than in oklahoma.
Were this not backed by the Judgment
OF experts az en- the fairs where Okla
homa wheat has been shown or Okla.
homa -four tested it might sound like
idle boosting, but when the record
bears out the statement It must be ac-
cepted
With such a proud record It is not
strange chat the Oklahoma wheat
farmer is little vain and regards his
wide acres Of wheat land with feel,
ing akin to worship Wheat is the
staple OF the modern worlds diet and
this fact puts the wheat growing
country In the front rank Of commuui-
ties aud insures It's supremacy. The
man who rules his neighbors stomach
rules the world. Oklahoma. therefore,
Is exalted among the nations

MIN UP AGAINST TIE
REAL THING
SERIOUS CHARGES MADE
Forty Head Strange Cattle
Found Near Stroud.

Dr. r. IT. Hahn, territorial cattle
inspector, returned this morning from
Stroud where he has been investirat-
ing one Of the strangest cases that has
been UP before the Oklahoma Live
Stock commission for same time
When Dr. Hahn reached stroud he
quarantined a bunch OF cattle contain
ing forty head and number Of horses.
He had not been there long until two
deputy United States marshals came
and wanted possession ct the cattle.
but Dr. Hahh informed taem that they
had been quarantned and could not be
removed until further action by the
Oklahoma Live Stock commission.
Upon investigation it was ascertain
ed by IT Hahn that tse cattle had
been brought over into Oklahoma from
the Creek nation and also that they
were infected G w Price claimed to
own the cattle and said that he en-
ployed jay. Mike and Joe Donaldson.
three young men, to drive the cattle
into Oklahoma Being informed that
this was a violation of the quarantine
law they began to shift and relate vari-
Gus sorts Of stories Of how they got
the cattle.
Last Saturday morning Price and
the Donaldsons were arrested taken
to Chandler and placed under heavy
bend. Later the guardian for the big
Pond Indian Estate" in the Creekcoun-
try arrived in Stroud and said that the
cattle were either stolen or sold by an
irresponsible person. He informed DIT
Hahn and the officers that the cattle
were IN his care and that no one had
the right to dispose Of them except
himself.
Then Price told a different story He
said that he had purchased only
twenty head OF cattle and that he had
bill Of sale from John Lewis, an In
dian. And thus the muddle stands
There seems to be something very
crooked about the affair. according to
DIT. Hahn's statement of the facts. It
Is believed that some startling eyi-
dence will be brought out in the hear
ing Of the cases of Price and the Don
aldsons on July 6. at Chandler, at
which time they are under bond TO ap-
pear for trial.

in value OF manufactured products dur
ing this period FOR the balance 81 The
nation was 1876 per cent and Tor The
south 1t was 2Efper cent BY way Of
explanation fs these startling figures
the south has kept her population a.
most entirely intact, there being twice
as many foreign born citizens in the
state q Illinois as % the entire four
teen southern states combined.
What a tribute IS this 70 the native
American blood that flows so fully IN
the veins OF the people Of the SOUTH
What incentive exists in these figures
to keep the population Of the south
free from the faint that is inevitable
from the reception ct indiacriminste
classes Of foreigners7 The people Of
the south have made the proudest
record vouchslfed to any in the world
since the close of the civil war, and
now as we stand on the threshold OF
greater things are we to have that
proud record stlined by admitting
among rs the "seum Of Eur5pe?"
This is the fate IN store for us if our
southern ports are opened to the re
ception Of immigrants, as many are
proposing. The north. aided and
abetted by the commissioner Of immi
grafton. is very sclicitous TO have the
south receive the vandal hordes com
ing to our shores. but we must not peS
init IT, not only must our own loved
lend of the south be kept for our chill
dren as pure as we can have it, but a
cry should be heard from all over the
south that VIII stay this tide Of i'm
migration which is demoralzing the
north
Surely the United states viii not be
content to become a mere penal colony
for Europe. It rests largely on the
south to save not only her own section
from this menace and damning blight
but that Of the rest Of the country as
well. No higher duty rests todsy on
our country than the protection OF her
population. and we shall never be
silent until shis is done.

PARKING QUESTION
GROWS WARM,
r. 3. Lille Submits Few Remarks on
Burning Subject.

Editor Daily Leader The question
Of the width Of the parking along OF
public streets, or distance from prop
erty line to curb and gutter, is at the
present time up for discussion in the
city council and is a matter Of 80 much
importance to the future beauty and
attractiveness Of our city as well as
question Of economy in maintenance
OBJ our streets in the future that l be-
lieve a proper discussing Of the ques-
ton is of much Importance at this
time
This question was all fully gone over
last year by the city council and the
present ordinance was passed after a
tbosclgh study of the situation and
there is no valid reason for any change
except to crafty q few people who OBJ
ject to any public improvement which
takes dollar out OF their pocket or is
liable to do so at any future time.
These objectors are OF the class who
must see dimes coming their way at
once for the outlay OF each penny
spent and do not take into considera-
tiou. The resulting benefits 20 be de
rived from improvements which beau
tify and by so doing enhance the value
Of their property.
When the order was made during
the Ball administration condemning
all defective board sidewalks and their
destruction and building in their place
permanent walks the same objection
was made that is being made now only
increased about ten fold Had the
council listened to the complaints Of
the people at that time we would still
be walking on broken board sidewalks
and paying thousands Of dollars in
damages to people for alleged injuries
received.
The same cry was heard again on
the street paving proposition and VIII
continue to be heard whenever any
improvement is made which causes an
outlay Of money. But who now, would
be willing to discard our permanent
sidewalks or street paving for the
money they have cost, OF who would
dare to advocate such thing.
