GOOD Time FOR
PENC|LPUSHERS
DENVER PRESS CLUB PLANS IN
TERESTING TIME.
AT INTERNATIONAL MEET
To Visit Various Places of Universal
Interest About the Mile High
City.

Newspaper men and women from
all sections of the country are max
ing plans to be in Denver the last
week of this month to attend the
conventions of the International
League of Press Clubs and the meet
ings at which the Amalgamated Or
der of Mavericks will be formed.
This is the information that comes
from the committee on arrangements
appointed by the Denver Press Club
to map out program and conduct
other preliminaries.
The Maverick organization will be
national in scope, and no doubt will
have an auspicious launching in Den
yer. Its growth Should be rapid, as
all persons actively engaged at the
work of writing for newspapers or
magazines will be eligible to member
ship.
The League will go to Denver well
represented by delegations from the
various press clubs in the organiza-
ton.
In all it is expected that at least
FIVE hundred active newspaper and
magazine writers will be present in
that city during convention week.
The program of entertainment pro-
vided by the Denver scribes is most
complete and certainly unique. One
of the features will be Bohemian
night held in the Garden Of the Gods,
one of the famous beauty spots in the
mountains adjacent to Colorado
Springs.
The affair will be conducted by the
Philadelphia Pen and Pencil Club,
whose entertainments at previous
conventions of the League have made
that body deservedly famous.
Another interesting event will be
the visit to Cripple Creek. The en-
tire party will be taken to that great
gold camp and practical gold mining
will be shown them by visits to one
or more Of the big mines. The Grip
pie Creek citizens have contributed
literally to a fund for entertaining
the visiting writers, and beautiful
souvenirs Of ore are now being pre-
pared for distribution among the
members of the party. In addition
to these souvenirs, badges illustra-
tive of the industry Of the camp will
be given to the visitors.
Still another trip that will prove
Of interest to the Denver Press Club 3

DO THE GRAFTERS.

Willard N. Jones, member of the Oregon egisa-
ure Of 1903, wealthy contractor and timber dealer was
sentenced by Judges Williams and Hunt in the United
States circuit court TO years Imprisonment in
the federal prison McNabb's island, and to pay fine
of $1,000 Jones was convicted of conspiracy to deraud
the government,
Thaddeus Stevens Potter well known Portland law
yer, who tried and convicted with jones' sentenc
to six months in the Munomah county Jail and to
pay fine of $500
The above item is of special Importance be-
it shows that the government is still pushing suits
against persons guilty of land frauds The rich and pow
eru fall before the vigorous prosecutions of the govern
ment. Senators, congressman, capitalists, members of
state legislatures and people of every calling caught
convicted and sent to prison for irregularities.
This does not mean that the world is topsy turcvy
politically socially, but that the public conscience has
been aroused and demands civic decency The people de-
mand than they did once, even As to the private
characters of the officials The time was and that not
very long ago, when could do about anything mag-
Unable when not duty providing their public records
and public acts squared all right.
Today the public demands decency in private as well
as public life All remember the story of the Judge who
had himself fnedSfo drunkenness and this in his own
court The Incident probably occurred but the
story was told approvngly evidence of the upright
ness Of the judge Would such story meet approval7
Most assuredly not Such judge would be compelled
to give up office The demands of the people are severer
with each decade and the greatest advance is being made
in the present decade.

guests will be the one to the great
irrigated section in the northern part
Of the state. 1t was there that the
famous Horace Greeley colony first
located in the early fifties and made
the beginning of one of the richest
and most prosperous agricultural
communities on the face of the globe.
The large canals. constructed for the
purpose of carrying water to irrigate
that vast area of land, which was
once a desert, will be an object les
son of enterprise and patience, and
will also demonstrate to the East
erner that Colorado has greater in
dustry than that of mining, for
which that state has earned repu-
tation throughout the world. 1t is
fact capable of proof by statistics
that the agricultural industry has
outgrown that of mining in the Cen
tennial state. The officials of the
town of Fort Collins and Greeley will
meet the visitors and have arranged
to have them see the great fields of
growing crops and the method of
developing and maturing them.
Many other features are included
in the weeks program, such as trips
to scenic spots near Denver and Colo
RADIO Springs, and there will be some
thing going on in Denver continu-
ously while the visiting writers are
in that city.
The Denver Press Club has called
to its assistance the Writers Club
of that city, to assist in entertaining
the visiting ladies. The Writers
Clubs membership consists entirely
of women employed on the daily
newspapers of Denver.
The railroads of the state are CO.
operating with the Denver Press
Club and all those who are guests of
the club will be treated most liber-
ally.

geant reproduction of the history Of
Kansas will be one of the features Of
the semi-centennial celebration in To-
peka in 1911. Mrs. f. r. Forier, sis
ter of Representative Calderhead and
his private secretary, is working out

be carried out by C. w. Parker, whose
carnival companies have given him
ex7orience in this sort of production
He promises to reproduce the historic
scenes in manner that will be reals
tic, and make the show one of the.
prominent features of the celebration.
Among the scenes to be given, both

be the Quantrell raid, the meeting of
the first legislature, the striking in
cidents in John Browns life, and
other affairs that were connected
prominently with the first decade of
Kansas history.
Mrs. Forter is at work on the text
of the spectacle, and Mr.. Parker is
planning the scenic features, which
will be on large scale and given out
of doors, if possible, with properly
constructed back ground and the as
sistance of as many of the actors in
the real drama as can be secured. Il
is planned to have as many Of the ear
ly settlers of the state assist in the
action and in arranging the details.

GTULSA is the railroad
and fuel center of the
Mid Continent Oil, Coal,
and Natural Gas Field.

GHard bituminous coal is supplied large consumers
at SOC to 50 per ton and natural gas at &c per 1000
cubic feet, in any quantity required. Our five rail
roads-Frisco Santa Fe M. X. & T., Midland Val

rates to manufacturers and jobbers The supply of
labor and building materials is abundant the climate
mild and healthful. The Arkansas river gives an
unlimited supply of pure water. The surrounding
country produces the best corn, wheat, cotton and
fruit live stock; oak, walnut and hickory timber
GTULSA has all the advantages that
other towns have, and also all those
the other towns would like to have.
GTULSA on June had II, 900 population, splendid
public schools, dozen churches, liberal banking
facilities, daily newspapers excellant fire protec-

greater population than California, Louisiana or
Kansas had in 1900 Yet of all its five hundred
thriving cities and towns, TULSA is the ONLY ONE

MUST BE CAREFUL

Occasionally some expresses fears that some
scheme to dsfranchise large portion of the citizens of
the state will be made, provided the democratic party is in
control of the constitutional convention. few demo.
cratic organs have suggested limited at such course
1t can be put down right now that there will be no
Grandfathers Clause in the constitution of Oklahoma
nor will there be any other provision to dsfranehse ne
groes or Indians 1t may be attempted but it scarcely
possible that such could be seriously eonsid
cred by the delegates But suppose the delegates should
put such clause in the constitution and that the people
of the territory should adopt the constitution and ii
should be sent to the president II would never be signed
The president would hold that such clause was in vio
ation of the spirit of the enabling act which provides
for republican form of government.
II must be remembered that territories are abso-
lutey at the mercy of congress and if the president
should report to congress that the people of Oklahoma
had violated the provisions of the enabling act the bill
would be rescnded and the people here could wait for

The Wichita Mountain Club, for
sport and recreation, has been organ

chased a quarter section of land three

and a vineyard. Cool springs and
dense shades abound.
