Vinita Yesterday.

The Vinita baseball team returned
last night from trip to Oklah ma,
where a series Of exhibition games was
played with Guthrie and Oklahoma

any Of the games the showing made by
il against these supposedly higher
class teams is very satisfactory to the
knowing ones.
Oklahoma City won yesterdays game

A Machine That Never Lets Up ON
Talking


The Golden Rule store is flooding
the country with talking machines. "
They have been giving one to every
customer who buys s25 worth of goods
and the rush Of business has caused
them to execute another order for
machines.
The Golden Rule is one among the
few large stores in Vinita that believes
in advertising newspaper advertising
especially. Mr.. Harris, like many
other great men, "got his start" rum
ming a newspaper and is a fine printer.
He knows how to write good adver-
tisements. He can make the head
lines of an ad. as attractive as the
headlines to a wedding write up and
the prices as alluring as the wedding
feast.
This firm believes in good newspaper
display, and a continual communities
tion with their customers through the
Daily Chieftain. Their taking ma
chimes, though nice present, will in
time wear out; the records will become
stale and behind the times. But the
song in the Daily Chieftain will run
the year round something new every
few days, while their motto, "The
Store Where Dollar Goes the Farth-
est" has become household word
throughout the whole country.

SIG CASE
REOPENED
the Famous FIippin Case To
81 Again Tried BY The
Dawes Commission.

The case or Belle Il. Bowers eU al,
applicants for enrolment in the Cher
okee nation, has been referred back
to the Dawes commission for readju-
dication by the secretary Of the in
'sSerior on the recommendation Of the as
sistant attorney general.
Mrs. Bowers, with her mother and
the other members of her mothers
family, was admitted to citizenship
by the Spears court in 1884. She was
enrolled with her children Ethen liv-
ing In 1886. In 1887, the Adair court
decided that the admission by the
Spears court was secured by fraud by
certain of the parties interested, and
since that time her name has not APP
peared upon any of the rolls Of the
Cherokee nation.
There are nearly 5000 names on the
Cherokee rolls where fraud Is charged
as In the Bowers case. The decision
referring the Bowers case back TO the
Dawes commission for REHABILITATION
will probably affect all other appli-
cants where fraud is charged and will
compel each to have his case heard
individually before the Dawes COM
mission.
If this is done great amount Of
extra work will be thrown upon the
commission.
Application was made in the Bowers
matter before the commission under
the act Of June To- 1896. Part Of Mrs
Bowers family we're admitted andlpart
rejected BY the commission. An ap-
peal was taken to the Springer court,
which rejected ali Of the applicants
After the passage Of the Curtis bill
application was made again for her to
the commission, which held that il
had no jurisdiction over her lease, and
further held that the decision Of the
Springer court, under the act Of June
10, 1885, was correct. This decision
Of the commission was affirm by the
secretary Of the interior,
Recently William HeTry White, at
torney-at-law, Washing, D. c., flied
motion with the department Of the
interior asking a reference Of the case
to the assistant Encouragement,
which resultedd inthe case being sent
to the commission for readludicatlon.
The results OF this decision are con-
sidered important, for the reason that
as to all persons whose names appear
upon any roll in the Cherokee nation,
the commission is now directed to in
yestigate and decide as TO whether or
not their names appear upon such
rolls by fraud or without authority Of
law, and as TO persons whose names
appear upon any Of the tribal rolls Of
the Cherokee Nation. The decision Of
the Springer court rejecting them is
no longer held to be flnal
The Belle n Bowers case Is one Of
several cases commonly designated as
the Flippin cases. The rights Of about
fifty persons are involved, and it IS
believed that there are as many as
fifty families who win be affected by
this decision.

Cotton Plants counter-stroke.

Studies of the cotton-boll weevil by
the department Of agriculture's experts
have established the fact that the cotton
plant. In some Of its varieties, has de-
veloped a practical means Of resisting
and destroying the weevil larvae The
defense made by the plant consists Of
the development in the young buds that
are attacked Of an exudation which fills
the cavity eaten out by the larvae. and
either smothers the latter or starves II
by surrounding It with a watery tissue
from which il cannot derive sufficient
nourishment The process is analogous
to that by which gals and other vege-
table excrescences are formed. Mr.. o.
+. Cook suggests that the general plant
ing OF a variety Of cotton possessing
this defensive process as a constant
character might externinate the weevn.

which all come into this world can only
produce natural people. for that which
is born of the flesh is flesh"
When our Lord replied TO Nicodemus'
first question He said, Except IA man
be born OF water and OF the Spirit he
cannot enter into the kingdom OF God"
What does this signify and just how
is this new birth Accomplishment Jas.
1, 1S, says, "Of His own will begat He
us with the word of truth" l Pet. ii,
%, says, "Being born again by the
word of God" But our Lord said we
must be "born of water" Now turn
to Eph. V, 20, and read, THAT He
might sanctify and cleanse 1t with the
washing OF water by the word" AL
though this refers to an experience
which follows the new birth, yet II
word and that "born of water" means
"born of the word" as James and Pc
ter plainly state. But our Lord said,
"Born of water and of the Spirit" Now
turn to John vi, 63, and read, "The
words that l speak unto you are Spirit
and are life" And is 1t not conclusive
that the new birth is accomplished by
the word of God and the Spirit of God?
And by this means God does all His
work. In Gen. i, .. 3, the Spirit of God
moved, and God said, and the work
was done "By the word of the Lord

host of them by the breath Tor Spirit

Only by the word of God In the pow
er OF the Spirit OF God can we know
anything OF the things of God, but un-
less we meekly receive the testimony
of God we cannot know the things OF
God Not only was Jesus q teacher
sent by God, as Nicodemus confessed
(verse y, but He came down from
heaven, and, though visibly on earth,
He was at the same time in heaven
(verse 13). IL this sounds foolish to
any consider what we have already
written. To understand more fully let
us go with our Lord to the wilderness
story of Mum. XXI, 40. The people
did not like Gods way nor Gods pro-
vision, SO they spake against Him, and
the Lord sent fiery serpents among
them, which bit them, and many died.
In answer to Moses prayer he was In
structed to put upon pole, so that all
might see 1t, brass likeness Of that
which had bitten the people, and every
bitten one who looked upon the ser
pent Of brass lived.
That old serpent, the devil, has bit
ten the whole race of mankind and In
stilled his poison of unbelief into us,
bringing upon us death and the curse,
and man cannot provide a remedy.
But the serpent upon the pole suggests
sin. that which has bitten us nailed to
the cross, and when the helpless, dying
sinner sees Jesus Christ made sin
Offering for him on Calvary and looks
belevingly upon Him instantly he lives
or is born from above. See John Ill,
10; ii Cor V, 21; Gal. Ill, 13; John t. II,
and learn the secret of the new birth,
but note also verse 1S Of our lesson
chapter and learn that we are either
not condemned Gf born again) or con-
demned already.

IL we take the last sentence of chap
ter ii and the first sentence of chapter
III from the revised version we read,
"He Himself knew what was In man;
now, there was a man." thus bringing
before us this Nicodemus as a sample
man representing a very large class of
we'll to do, moral religious, devout
men, who are found in all churches as
members in good standing, but in the
sight of Him who reads the heart, and
before whom as their judge they must
appear, lacking the one essential to fit
them for the kingdom-viZ, the birth
from above Verse g. margin). The
subsequent history of NicOdemus would
indicate that his eyes had been opened
and that he became true child of
God.
Nicodemus knew and acknowledged
Jesus to be teacher come from God
knowledge could not save him. And
yet that is more than some of His pro-
fessed friends, who think they are
saved, know or acknowledge today,
counting Him to be ignorant of many
things which they think they know bet
ter than He did. Notwithstanding all
that SO called wise and learned men
say and teach, we must accept the
opening statements of John concerning
Him-that He was God, that He made
all things, that He made the world,
that He is the only revealer of God the
Father John 1, /, 3, 10, 49,
The Lord Jesus seemed not to notice
what Nicodemus said; but, reading his
heart and seeing his real need, He
said, "Verily, verify, l say unto thee,
except q man be born again margin,
"from above"l he cannot see the king
dom of God" This is the second of
the twenty-five double "verllys" or
"amens' of this gospel, and the next
two are found in verses and II. We
have in all these sayings the most
abundant possible testimony to the i'm
portance of the truths enunclated, the
first referring TO the kingdom and glory
and the next to the only way to see
that glory.
Nicodemus, being only a natural man,
although so very religious. could not
understand this new birth, for the nat
ural man receveth not the things of
the Spirit of God, because they are
foolishness unto him Il Cor ii, 14).
and he therefore asks what seems like
a very foolish question. Not many
people consider that the foolish ques-
tions they often ask concerning spir-
itual things may indicate that they are
only natural people, not born again,
not spiritual. The natural birth by
