of the best advertisements town can
have, and it is hoped that every as

Was Parker's SChOOImate

Theo. d. B. Frear, candidate for
judge of Craig county; has during the
few years that he has lived here, won
staunch place in the front ranks of
the democratic party. Mr. Frear
successfully conducted the campaign
for the election of the delegate to the
constitution, and was, in lieu or his
good services made state organizer.
Mr.. Frear IS graduate of Union col
lege, Of Schenectady, N. Y, at which
place he attended college with Judge
Alton b. Parker who was the demo-
cratic candidate for president in 1904.
The many good things that can be
said of him are innumerable, and the

Gus Ivey for State Auditor.

Gus Ivey, the Indian journalist and
whom every 'old-timer" in this sec
tion knows, is a candidate for nomi-
nation on the Democratic ticket for
state auditor for Greater Oklahoma.
The people on this side-all over Okla
homa-have a fellow feeling for Gus
Ivey, that is, the Democratic portion
of them-both whites and Indians,
because he is the nestor Of the news
paper business in this new state. He
did much in past years to instill Dem
ocracy into his people-the Indians
of this country, he being one Of them.
He has been connected with the press
in Indian Territory since 1877, period
of thirty years.

GOOD PROPOSITION |. 0. 0. F. ELECT
Part of College Campus May
Now Be Acquired for Fair
Ground, Says the Board

A proposition has been made by the
Board of Foreign Missions Of the M.
e. church, South, whereby about 81
acres of the Willie Halsell college
campus may be acquired for use as
fair grounds. This proposition Is made
to the citizens Of Vinita and Craig
county, AMI provides that good build
ings be erected, and thatother improve
ments and equipments be firstclass.
This, in the opinion Of A. L. Churchill
will require an outlay Of about $40, 600,
which is considered very cheap
proposition for the city, and the mat
ter will be taken up by the CONNER
cial club tonight.
1t is very probable that stock com
pany will be Incorporated, with a
capital $4,000, stock of which will be
sold, if possible, to every citizen OF the
town.
1t is proposed to have $1,000 OF the
stock paid up for use in improving the
grounds.
This is proposition that should,
and it is believed will, meet with great
favor in Vinita and Craig county, as
it is proposed to make this a matter
for the whole county, and county
fair will be held here annually.
Those who remember the success of
the old Vinita fair of several years
ago do not doubt that county fair
would be even a greater success now.
The college campus is an ideal loca-
tion for fair grounds.
Those who are promoting the plan
want the cooperation of every loyal
citizen In this matter, and propose TO
push the matter to a successful finish.

NE N REGULATIONS
For Greek important
to Oil Men and Indians
Removes Red Tape.

Tie department has recently pro-
mulgated a new regulation in regard
to the execution of leases by Indian
allottees before the deeds have been
recorded in the office Of the commits
sioner to the Five Civilized Tribes
AS this will doubtless be of great
interest to oil men, quoted herewith
is the gist of the ruling.l
"The department., on March 30, 1907,
amended the regulations governing
the leasing of lands by members Of the
Five Civilized Tribes, as follows;
"The regulations governing the leas-
ing of lands in the Five Civilized
Tribes are amended so as to permit
the execution of leases Iby allottees
after the perfection Of allotment by
the acceptance of formal application
by the Commission to the Five Civil
lied Tribes, by the Commissioner to
such tribes"
Under the former regulation no lease
or deed was approved in the CheroKee
nation that was executed prior to the
approval and delivery of the deed to
the allottee. This regulation was
modified by the Act of April 26, 1905,
SO that after the deed was recorded in
the Office of the Commissioner to the
Five civilized Tribes, deeds and leases
might be made.
This is a great boon to the citizens
of Indian Territory, as new born chill
dren, who had not received their deeds
Of allotment or had not had the deeds
recorded in the Office of the Commits
sioner to the Five Civilized Tribes,
could not, under the ruling, make a
lease. In some instances their land is
being badly drained and it was neces-
sary, in every case of this character,
to obtain special permit from the de-
partment to deviate from the ruling,
This, of course, occasioned long delays
and worked great injury, both to the
Indian allottee and the oil man.

COL. FICKL|N
FOR TREASURER

The announcement of Col. Il. d.
Ficklin for treasurer OF Craig county,
subject to the action of the Demo
cratic primary, appears IN this issue
Of the ChieftaIn. In speaking Of his
candidacy it might be said that no
man in the county is better fitted to
fiji the office of treasurer than is Col
Ficklin. He has been book keeper for
the K. N. Ratclff Mercantile COM
pany for the past twenty years and
is held in the highest esteem by his
employer as we'll as thousands of
that company's patrons. Col. Flick
lin is now entering upon his fifth
term as treasurer Of this city, and the
manner In which he has looked after
the finances of the city is sufficient
proof of his qualifications to fill the
Office Of treasurer of Craig county.
Always courteous and pleasant TO
everyone, Col. Ficklin has surrounded
himself with an army Of friends of
whom the opposition will find an ar
ray that cannot be beaten.

MINES AND MINING.

The situation at the CRANKY smelter
is better than it has been for some
time past, and within a short time
the big plant will be smelling a daily
tonnage Of ore unprecedented in it's
history.
The supply of coke is increasing at
Rossland, and on Friday the LIE Roi
smelter at NOrthport resumed opera
tons after being closed down for sew
eral weeks.
The Butte mill and smeltermen's
union failed to vote upon their propO-
sition to demand an increase in wages.
Jack Burke, one If the owners of
the Agnes group OF Big Sunday creek
near Saltese, Mont, reports that the
full face of the upper drift has broken
into solid body OF first class con-
centrating ore. The drift has been
in ore carrying much iron, and the
strike was expected. The find was
made at a depth of about ITO feet.
Great excitement is reported In the
little town of Scott Mills, Marion coun-
ty, Oregon, over the recent discovery
made there of rich coal veins.
A strike of great Importance was
recently made in the Standard Nam.
moth mine at Mace, Idaho, the big
property of the Federal Mining &
Smelling company. The shaft is down
to the 1850 foot level. where work
of cutting a station was begun. Dur
ing the progress Of the work about
10 feet of very rich concentrating gal
ena ore was exposed. The ore is sc
rich that much of it might be ship
ped after hand sorting. The vein was
supposed to be about 80 feet from the
station and the discovery of the ore
probably indicates a marked widen
ing Of the pay shoot. The other wal
is not yet in sight.
L. L. Carter of Baker City, Ore.

$35,OOO James, Rongold & Company

south of Lewiston.
1t is reported from Grangeville, Ida
no, that George Hyatt has made {
rich strike on his group Of claims OF
/ Maxwell creek in the Marshall lakt
district. The ore vein is about tw'
feet wide on the footwall of a five foo
ledge, and carries much free gold, a
does the ore from the Goodenougl
mine. The find was made at the en-
OF a 275 foot crosscut tunnel.

at Lundbreck, Alberta. Mr.. Laidlaw
will organize the Galbraith Coal coil
pany, with capital stock Of $780,
900, to handle the mine.
At a meeting of the mine owners
in Nelson, B. c., recently a resolution
against the Sunday observance law
which went into effect March l was
passed, the contention being that the
miners preferred to work rather than
do nothing on that day, especially as
the season of work in some localities
is short.
An IL foot vein Of ore averaging
better than 81 a ton in gold and silver
has been opened by a crosscut on the
Southern Cross property, which lies
about 5000 feet east of the Daisy mine,
near Mullan, Idaho.
With better coke supplies Bound
airy smelters are handling more ore,
which is reflected in shipment re-
turns.
The coming season is expected tc
be a record maker in Salmon river
Idaho, mining development. Begin
ming at Whitebird and going up the
river as far as higgins, the placer
mines are getting ready for the spring
work The deep SHOWS and the fact
that the ground is saturated with
moisture will furnish water for much
longer season than usual.

pleted whereby the Maple Leaf, one o.

Fork of the Kettle river, will be de
