LIKES The TOWN
Kansas Editor Praises vinita
as a HustIing Town.

Editor w. E. Nicklin of the Chero-
kee Hummer Of Kansas was in the
city last week, and has this to say
about the town in the last issue OF
his paper:
During my short stay in Vinita last
week I received such generous and
cordial reception by all with whom |
came in contact that it has kindled
warm spot in my anatomy for Vinita
and her people, One Thing that at
tracted my attention was the fact that
wherever / went, from the peanut
man On the corner to the bankers and
judicial officers, / found live and en-
thusiastic young men in charge. 1t Is
a young mans town, and is being
builded and fashioned by the energies,
the pride, the ambition and the en-
thusiasln Of these youngsters. Ii their
future shall compare favorably with
the present, shall predict that Vinita
will be- one Of the Oest and prettiest
towns in the new state. In that little
city Of energy and get-up-and-git they
are building even better than they
know, for they are not only building a
city, but the result Of their labors will
be to the upbuildirg of Northeast
Oklahoma. All hail Vinitai"

BOY killed |HOCH HERE
No Republican Day Ac-
count Absence Of
DoIIiyer

There will, Ia no Republican day AZ
the Vinita Chautauqua. The arrange
ments that had been made to Ereceive
Senator Dolliyer OF Iowa, and to cele-
brate Wednesday as Republican day
at the Chautauqua, have been called
off, owing co the inability Of tire sena-
tor to be presept on account of i'll
ness.
Manager Bartell of the Associated
Chautauquas telegraphed Rev. ]. X.
Pershing this morning that Governor
Hoch Of Kansas had been secured in
place of Senator Dolliver. Governor
Hoch, however, on account Of his con-
nection with the Katy land suit, is
not considered as man upon whom
the Republicans Of this section could
unite for the starting of the first
compaign, and 1t was decided, there
fore, at a meeting Of the reception
committee, that no Republican day be
held,
Rev. J.E. Pershing has wired Mana
ger Bartell asking if some other
prominent Republican cannot be sub
stituted from Governor Hoch. The
governor is regarded as one Of the abb
lest speakers on the stump IN the
southwest, but Manager Bartell could
hardly have made more unfortunate
selection to represent the Republicans
here.
1t is possible that Congressman Phil
Campbell Of Kansas may come, as il
is understood he is willing to do So.
However, the time is SO short that no
arrangements can be made to receive
him in a party demonstration, and
therefore whoever comes viii come
merely under the management Of the
Chautauqua; there will be no party
significance attached.
Governor Hoch has many friends
here, all Of whom say that he has been
perfectly honest in his action in re-
gard TO the Katy suit, but they are
nevertheless forced to admit that the
governor would do more harm than
good here if he were to appear under
Republican auspices, SO strongly are
the people prejudiced against him.
But, in spite Of his Katy action, as
a speaker the governor IS well worth
hearing What he has to say will be
bright, crisp, pointed

MUCH BUSINESS TO
Be DONE BY COUNCIL
Jas Franchise Accepted, But Streets
4 Must Be Paved and Weeds
Need Cutting Badly

Another meeting Of the city coun-
Gil has been scheduled for tonight, and
an effort will be made to get the mem
5ers out in spite Of the ChautauQua.
Beside the matter Of street paving
there are some other items Of consid-
erable Importance to come before the
council.
Late Saturday afternoon a telegram
was received from tine Warren COM
pany of Philadelphia accepting the
gas franchise as passed by the council,
and the final steps will be taken now
towards putting the ordinance into
effect. All that remains is to publish
it in the official paper. The fact that
the acceptance Of the franchise was
wired in on the last day shows that II
has been thoroughly considered by the
company; also, that the company IS
anxious to secure the fra4chise, BY
the terms Of the contract, actual work
must be begun by the company within

thirty days, and gas must be furnished
by December !.
Another matter to come up before
the council will be the resignation OF
Aldermen Charles H. Collins Of the
first ward, which was received today
by Mayor Shanahan. He has been
elected assistant cashier Of the First
National bank Of Claremore. His
resignation takes effect at once An
election will be held soon to elect a
successor. Mr.. Collins was a Demo
crat, but both parties will make an
effort to capture his seat.
Still another matter that must be
taken up by the council is chat Of the
weeds. They have reached a point
where they must be cut. Besides be-
ing a detriment to the appearance Of
the city, and a, scourge to those who
are attempting to keep lawns, weeds
are bad from sanitary standpoint.
An expert has said: "Cut your weeds
and save doctors bills. \

Life IS more bucolic in Washington. D. C.. than we would have supposed. The Washington Herald gives consid- erable space to a movement recently inaugurated to secure legislation re- quiring the consent of all the resident; in a block before one can keep chick ems. In some places liquor selling is regulated in similar manner and we believe t would be easier to secure the subscription of an ultra temperance block to a saloon petition than to ac- quire the consent of block of average minded citizens to a chicken ranch in their midst.

4 REAL AND TRULY ARIZONA
 FAIR.

One of the most pleasing things about the fair is the greater interest taken in it by people from all parts of the territory. the rapid melting away of antagonism and the suspicion with which people from other parts of the territory regarded Phoenix The melt ing was begun during the fair a year ago. but it was not complete. Now we believe it is.
 Whether or not Phoenix deserved it it has for a long time been the object of much ill feeling and the sub ject of much unfavorable comment by residents of other parts of the terri tory, especially of the larger towns. It was accused of being grasping. of hoggishness. When the territorial fair was instituted and located here there was quite prevalent sentiment else where that the underlying purpose of il was to promote Phoenix; that any benefit that any other section of Ari- zona might secure would be an acci- dental overflow.
 The last fair partially dispelled this notion and from what we can learn the present fair is going to dissipate it entirely.
 The change of outside sentiment is indicated in a statement yesterday of a resident of a large az ricUltural district quite remote from the Salt River valley. He said: We thought at first that the territorial fair was to he really a Phoenix fair; now we see II was ho1estly meant to be what it is. an Arizona fair. If We had understood that before. the exhibits would b. even better than they are. Our sect ion could have made a hand some showing. I have at home finer hogs. for instance, than I've seen here. Next year I'll bring them"
 Perhaps the thought did not occur to him, but it may be said that having become convinced that there were few CT human hogs associated with the fair management than he had supposed there were, he would enter next year some four-footed hogs. the only kind that can in any way contribute to the success of an agricultural fair.
 A spread of this kindly sentiment will do more to insure the highest sue cess of the third annual fair than the expenditure of energy brought by ex- perience to the highest degree of skill. The broader the cooperation, the broader and better the fair.
 Let Phoenicians join in the diffusion of this liberal sentiment in our favor.
