CAPT. WHITES
ADDRESS AT.
Hall Chapel Friday Night--warren
Issues Invitations to a
Rooster Roast

Editor of The Chieftain-The po-
litical storm which is sweeping the
hills and plains of the Indian Terrific
~ has reached this place and covers
the landscape Of prejudice" with a
clear white coating on which the sun
of Republican prosperity now shines
and grows brighter as the election
day draw near.
These prosperous sons are coming
TO town perched upon wagons loaded
to the limit with bright golden
corn to sell at 30c per.
They say that it is pretty good, no
matter what political party is push
ing the farmer to the front. And
then, Mr. Chieftain man, they put on
a knowing smile and wink. Guess the
man in the overalls knows when he
can farm to a profit. They are con-
tented and have a smile that won't
come off for 40 bushel Of corn to the
acre at 30 cents a bushel spells Pros
PERITY for all
At this place, Adair, 100 loads of
corn were sold on November 1st at 81
cents. Averaging it at 40 bushels to
the load, these farmers sold 64oO BUSH
els of corn and put in circulation ST.
9840O.
These are some of the good old days
Of tired men who have sholdered
the white mans burden Of broadening
the smile on the face Of the wife and
children by being able to meet the
debts, refurnish the house and SEND
THE LITTLE ONES TO SCHOOL.
What a contrast now and few
years ago. Take for instance the
years Of 1893 and 1906. In those form
er years these same men came to these
same towns and sold the same grade
Of corn for Is cents, bought a scanty
supply of the necessaries of life and
slipped out Of town as soon as possi-
BILE to avoid making excuses to their
many creditors. They are now con-
tented and do not care to step back
ward.
They also see chance to put one OF
their fellow FARMER at the wheel to
guide the good ship Constitution, !"
and are taking no chances on a polit-
ical Judge of the revolving" variety?
They are watching the school ques-
tion and don't propose to put the fu-
ture Oklahoma below the 100 per
cent class Of school expenditures.
TO sum the situation up in one
grand total they are prepared to vote

for the Party of Progress not Promis-
es.
Mr.. John +. Warren las issued in
vitations to grand chicken feast to
be given on the morning of Novem-
ber I. Come if you can get away, as
he has selected choice grade Of poul-
try and it is the old yellow rooster
that he has chosen. He is pretty old
boys, as he was born hundred years
ago, and he been fighting ever since.
Ton the quiet though he mas never
won but two fights and those we're ca
giles that proved to be elephants.
Well, you certainly missed treat
by not hearing Capt. G. S. White
when he started on the school ques-
tion last night at Halls Chapel. He
told iii eloquent terms Of how the
road to success now days is marked
with school houses. / don't remem-
Der all, but if it were possible for the
GODDESS of Liberty to have heard him
when he told Of the thousands Of poor
children in the south that are strang-
ers to education, she would have torn
the bandage from her eyes and used to
to stanch the tears Of pity. don't
know how the inalineable rights Of
man can be better protected than be-
meath school house roof, surmounted
by the great American flag; there's
where they learn to vote The Repub-
lican ticket. +. e. B.

CAMPAIGN
ARGUMENT

Democrats are telling the dear peo-
pie that if the Republicans are sue
cessful in this election white children
will have TO 60 to school with the col
ared children. This statement is
just as false base and impricipled as
the assertion that the Judge Of the
local court is arobber and CRATER A
separate school system law prevails in
Oklahoma and the enabling act III
the Statehood bill extends the Okla
homa school law over the Indian Terri
itory. So this nails another Demo-
cratic falsehood, which is heard on
the streets Of Vinita every day.

BUILDING
HIS FENCES

1t is now claimed by those who seem
TO know that Mr.. Kornegay is having
all he can do to keep his own politi-
cal fences in repair.
The condition Of affairs is perhaps
just as surprising to Mr.. Kornegay
as it is to the general public. 1t is
said, he is going over the ground"
the second time, being called to a
number of school houses in the north
ern portion Of the district by his sup
porters to explain the meaning of
speeches made in those communities
on former Occasions.
The Democrats are not having near
ly so good a time as was anticipated.

1t is a mistake to use cardboard
boxes in packing flowers to be sent
by mail Always use tin box, lining
1t with sheet of damp moss and
above this a sheet of florists paper
or tissue paper If the other is not at
hand, taking care that 1t fits into the
corners and around the sides. The
flowers should be placed in, row after
row, until there is layer of flowers
fitting on into the other all over the
bottom of the box. Never crowd nor
put one layer on the top of another
The rows must be IS close together
as possible: the flower heads Of each
row should be or the stems OF the row
Immediately preceding it, SO that
when the box is finished only flowers
are to be seen an dno stems.

APPROPRIATION FOR
QUARANTINE ISLAND
(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)

WASHINGTON, u. c., February 10.
The urgent deficiency appropriation
bill, reported to the Senate and passed
yesterday contained an appropriation
of $4,000 for filling in quarantine is
land at Honolulu. The matter now
goes into conference and the success
of the appropriation depends upon the
attitude of the House conferees. Ex-
Gov. Powers has introduced there a
bill, reading as follows:
Be it enacted by the Senate ana
House of Representatne s of the Unit
ed States of America in Congress as
sembled, That the sum of twenty thou
sand dollars. or so much thereof as
may be necessary, is hereby appro-
priated, out of any money in the Treas
ury not otherwise appropriated, to be
Immediately available, to be expended
under the direction of the Secretary
of War, for the reclamation of Quar-
antine Island, in Honolulu harbor, Ter
ritory Of Hawaii. from the materIaIs
now being dredged from said harbor,
the price paid for said materials de-
posted on said island to be not more
than ten cents per cubic yard, and so
much of said appropriation as may be
necessary to be expended for the con
struction of weirs and bulkheads
around said island. The Secretary of
War is hereby authorized to proceed
at once in the execution of this work,
without advertising for bids.

FINDS WORK FOR
HUNDREDS OF WOMEN
FREE EMPLOYMENT BUREAU A
GREAT SUCCESS
Efforts of Mrs. Gibbs and Score Of
Noble Assistants Directed to Ben
eft San Francisco Earthquake
Sufferers

Several hundred women who were
thrown out of employment as cooks
and housemaids by the destruction of
San Francisco are to be brought to
Los Angeles, where there are more
than 200 places now open to women
of that class.
Mrs. Jefferson D. Gibbs, president of
the Women's parliament of Southern
California, originated the idea of bring
ing the women to this city, but before
she made the trial she found that there
was a strong demand for such girls
for housework
Most of the requests for girls have
come from private families, and 1t is
believed that the experiment will be
a pronounced success. Mrs. Lucy S..
Blanchard, vice president at large of
the Women's parliament, went to San
Francisco to secure 100 women who
will be brought to Los Angeles on
Monday. The employment bureau es-
tablished by Mrs. Gibbs is entirely free.
no charge being made either to the
girl given situation or to the en-
ployer.
After the first 100 are placed, Mrs
Gibbs stated that girls will be brought
to Los Angeles in lots of 100 until the
local demand is supplied. All people
who can make use of either cook or
house maid are requested to register
their names with Mrs. Gibbs.
