Lamar is To have new railroad.
Her enterprising citizens met Saturday
and organized to build a road through
the Big Bend district on the north side
and connect with the Missouri Pacific at
Sugar City. Holly is also interested i'll
a railway project through the same
country where the Beet is King and it
remains to be seen which will build first.
We suggest that the town that loses

as the assortment of cows has been
betten than of steers. Grass steers

The hog market has ruled steady

decline of 5 to IL cents. The
supply has been moderate this week
as compared with last week, but Is
still 60 per cent larger than this time

of the hogs selling at $500
Sheep receipts continue small and
market is 10 to 20 cents higher this

brought $500 this week and some
Utah ewes $4.75, feeding lambs at
$500 to $500, and feeding weihers
are worth S46O TO $i0O. There is
great demand for breeding ewes,
choice ones selling at $40 TO $3.50.
Small receipts are expected for an
other week or two and the market
should be good in the meantime.

ADOPTING WHITE WAYS
Flathead Indians Faithfully Work
ing at Agriculture.

Spokane, Wash, August lO.-The
Indians on the Flathead reservation
are gradually adopting the way of
their white brethren. M. j. Agnew
agent at Jocko, says in a report re-
ceived in Spokane that there were no
marriages by Indian custom during
the last year, and that more than 40
per cent of the couples have been
married in the Catholic church, hav-
ing received the necessary permit
from the county clerk,
Mr.. Agnew says of the 2,246 In
dians enrolled, only 920 are full
bloods, and at this rate of decrease,
he adds, in l3l years there will not
he Il full booded Flathead in the
country. During the fiscal year, just
ended there were 80 deaths among
the full bloods aud Is births, while
among the mixed bloods there were
20 deaths and 4S births.
Regarding agriculture on the res
ervation Mr. Agnew shows that more
attention has been paid to farming
than ever before, larger areas of land
having been broken and seeded and
it is expected that the yield of wheat
and other grain will be above the
normal.
1t is added in the report that all
the olfenses tried during the year
were traced to liquor, but the agent
says that the traffic is being stamped
out because of the severity OF the
punishment meted out by the Indian
court, which is composed by two Flat
head Indians and one from the Kali
spell reservation. The court sits on
the second and fourth Sundays Of
each month, but frequently, 1t is
said, there is no business to transact.
All children have been required to
attend either the Catholic mission
school or the institute maintained
by the government for the Indians

A Brainy Black Dog.

Muskogee, |. T., August lO.-Black
Dog will assist the Indian inspectors
in the allotting of the land of the
land of the Osages. Black Dog is a
man who has the confidence of his
people, is said to be a fine specimen
of physical manhood as one can find
in the new state He cannot under
stand a word of English and in his
sittings with the commissioner will
have to have an interpreter con
stantly. II took the Usage council a
long time to make this selection.
The wrangle into which the selection
threw the council has delayed the
allotting Of lands for long time al
ready, and the selection of Black
Dog means that the commissioners
will get to work as speedily as pos
sible. The Usage representatives be-
longs to what is generally known as
the non-progressive class or the full
blood element, the blanket wearers
of the Usage country.

RURAL SIGNS MUST GO.
Introduction of Auto Causes Conster
nation Among CANNES.

The last signs of rural attributes in
Tulsa are fast being wiped out, aud
one of the final movements in this di-
recticn is the introduction of the au-
tomobile. There may be n few run
aways occasioned, few smash-up'
listed, but the automobile must come
and the equine friends of the past
centuries regulate themselves to con
dition which ignores the modern vehi-
cle of transportation. II will be hard
for the horses of Indian Territory, no
doubt, many of them having not as
vet become well accustomed to the
steam locomotive. much less the more
recent additions 10 wodern advance
mcnt. Indian horses and their kin
must submit to the wheezes and whiz-
res Of the automobile, and the less cut
M they make, the better it will be
for all concerned.
The Tulsa Automobile company's
White Steamer is causing great con
cern among the equine population of
Tulsa as well as a vast amount of in
tercst among many of her two-fooied
residents. The ear is a particularly
noiseless one. but gliding about the
streets she causes much CONSERVATION
among the horses, and if drivers who
have been in the habit cf leaving
horses united whenever and wherever
they pleased. do not take more care
there may be a large number of smash
ups that will cause damage in no small
amount. The chauffeur of the motor
is as careful as any man could be
and does the best he can not to fright
en- the animals, but equine nature is
beyond the ken of the most astute.

Suggestions for Good Roads In
ROckbrIdGe

EDITOR GAZETTE There eesme
TO be quite stir in the breezes, just
now, on the subject Of good roads
in Rockbridge county. as elsewere.
That is good, that there are letters
and talk on the subject but, really,
has not the time cOme for our
supervisors to do something about
it2 Use somo county money. get the
people along the way to contribute,
and also employ the most available
and cheapest labor they can, and
try a few miles of first class road.
Do let US do something instead OF
taking it out in perennial talk. We
need good roads for vehicles; and
NO also need better r; ilroad facili-
tier in moving our crops, etc. l
trust that the Baltimore and Ohio
will before another year build from
Lexington TO Salem.
By the way. we hear that the
Electric line from Stanton to
Middle brook will utilize the TOwer
on the river this side Of Stauntoo,
and will not uee the power Of
North River. That reminds us that
such = road if extended will carry
much trade away from Lexington
to S.aunton. Why cannot our
moneyed men in Rock bridge county
construct q line from Lexington
up Kerr's' Greek to Big Spring,
and thence across TO the Rock
bridge Baths, and thence W
Walkers Creekp and in thLt way
bring the trade of rich eonmun'
ity back to Lexington that already
goes to Stanton.
OF course we have heard the
cry of "no money" in these pal ts,
till we almost believe it. But,
when we read the reports of our
6ourishing banks in Lexington, we
know that this is not true. The ag-
gregate of deposits as last reported
was over elk hundred thousand
dollars. 1t is not q question OF
money, but of enterprising men
to press it. Let US attempt it. We
shall then not only benefit the
county but also the town OF
Lexington. OBSERVER.
