A BIG DAY
+: AT>DODGE CITY.

The citizens of Dodge City did
themselves proud Thursday by the
nagnlflcent manner in which they en-
tertalned the 5000 people who Wis
tied their city that day. The big

souri,, and Adams of. Colorado.
In the morning General Sweeney
led the parade. 1t was made (up of
the old boys, fraternal orders etc.
The first in the line was a delegation

Folk, then delegation of old soldiers
excortlng Gov. Hoch, followed by a
delegation ofrailroad men escorting
Gov. Adams, which was followed. by
the secret orders and citizens in car
rlageS. The. parade was reviewed by
the visiting governors at the city hall,
and after it disbanded meeting was
held in the park, presided over by
Judge Hutchinson of Garden City,
and addressed by Cow Hoch. In
the afternoon Judge Lobdell presided,
and the governor of Missouri held
the attention Of the audience for an
hour and half. Gov, Adams spoke
in the. evening. All the speakers
were given the closest of attention,
and all made good. The burden of
Folks speech was that a law that is
placed on. the statute book is placed
there to be enforced, and that is
the dutyof every citizen; and every
official, to see that it is inforced. He
says the slogan should be changed
from America for Americans" to

earnestness in the fight that he has
undertaken was admired and endorsed
by the large audience.
The races were of minor import.

MASS OF SORES
Awful Suffering Of Little Boy
from an Itching HumOHr
CURED BY CUTICURA
Not One Square Inch Of Skin on
His Whole Body Unaffected

"My little son, boy Of Eve, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At the
time was induced to try Cuticura
he was so bad that had to cut lIis
hair off and put the cuticura Oiht-
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass of sores.
The bandages used to stick to his skin
and in removing them it used TO take
the skin off with them, and the screams
from the poor child were heart-break.
ing. / began to think that he would
never get well, but after the second
application of Cuticura Ointment /
began to see signs Of improvement,
and with the third and fourth appli-
cations the sores commenced to dry
mp. His skin nee 1 off twenty times,
but II finally yielded to the treatment.
Now l can say that he is entirely
cured, and. a stronger and healthier
hoy you never saw than he is to-day"

special train next Wednesday.
Some weeks ago a meeting Of the
mayors Of the various Incorporated
towns and cities wae held in South Nc
Alester to devise ways and means for
taxing railroad property in the terri
tory pending the enactment Of state
hood legislation. Under present con
ditions the railroads pay practically no
taxes at all, and It was pointed out
that even if Oklahoma is admitted at
the present session there will be no
means OF collecting taxes until 1907,
while an act Of congress, If promptly
passed, would make the railroad prop
erty taxable next year An organiza-
tion was formed and the following
mayors were delegated to present tic
matter at Washington: T. s. Chap
man. South McAlester; F. b. Fite
Muskogee; c. L. Reeder, Tulsa; c. G
Watts, Wagner; D. J. Kendall, Sui
phur.
The chairman Of the committee on
ways and means, Mayor r. w. Dick ol
Ardmore, has assessed the various
cities upon the basis Of population te
defray the expenses Of the delegation
and II is hoped an Ct may be passed
early in the session while the affairs
of the territory are fresh in the minds
Of the members Of congress through
discussion OF the statehood bill.
