Census of Oklahoma.

The recently completed census OF
Oklahoma shows population of l ,408,
1872. In 1900 the two territories which
made up the new state had a total pop.
niation of only 100, 391. Only % states
had, in 1900. larger population than
Oklahoma has now. The next re-appor-
tionment will probably increase the
representation of Oklahoma in Con-
gress for while the enabling act gives
the state five representatives, the pop
ulation, on the present basis of appor-
tionment. would allow seven. The
whole of New England could be set
down within the limits of the new
state and leave a fringe of territory
amounting to relrly 1900 square
miles.

at the school house, Saturday, Novem-
Der 9th at II m.
1t was the first time the Association
ever met in Claysville The program
was spicy and full of interest. Many
good thoughts were presented to the
people. The educational status of the
teachers was all that could be ex-
pected
The welcome address by the Princi-
pal, Mrs. Nettie H. Grant, was superb.
1t was we'll delivered and made a deeD
impression on the hearers. She desired
that much good would result from the
diffusion of ideas and the mingiing of
the teachers with the patrons OF Claws
vile.
A toothsome. savory luncheon was
served and 80 teachers. 40 pupils and
80 patrons partook. No wedding din
ner could have been finer. "Sorne
good things can be found in Claws
vile. p" We thank the teachers. trus-
tees. Mrs. Georgia Love, Mrs. Josie
ClaXton and all others who assisted
and made the Association possible.
Mr.. f. l.. McChesney was over and
made US line talk. He also recited
Beautiful Thoughts" No one can
be more inte: ested in our welfare than

Prof. Geo. w. Chapman lectured for
US at night. He gave one of the best
lectures that we have ever heard. He
