is only the ability to see what is COM

measured, he was unerring. If In any
respect his intellectual temperament
was deficient it was in the difficulty he
experienced when he tried to excuse
fool for being fool. Dulness-the stu

was to him uncomfortable. His own
mind was so clear, so ready to grasp

OF singular versatility, great learning,

him for distinction in any community,
but to them was added a generous.
open nature, which won and held the
affection of all with whom he came

many of the qualities which endear
a man to those who know him are
found In such a perfect poise and
harmony. Quite commonly, IL is
thought, and often asserted, that a
brilliant intellect is seldom accom-
panied by a generous heart The life
and career of William H. Rossington
show how false is such an estimate of
human character. He was born July
81. 1S4S, and had he lived another
fortnight would have rounded out
sixty good years. 1t was not a short
life, and yet how quickly it sped to its
close. And now that it is ended, so
far as this world goes, does it count
for nothing except the brief honors
and the fleeing rewards of a success

hard for those who loved him to think

Having lived in Kansas fifty years,
affairs during the greater part of that
time, I feel that I know something of
the needs Of the state and of what
would be for the best interests of the
people. AS a member Of the legislature
for the past six years my efforts and
vote have been to put upon the statute
books all of those measures for which
a demand has been made by the people
of the state and which my judgment
told me would work for the general
good.

A Good Indication.

A very good indication that the Bank
OF Beaver City Is in good
condition and is a sound and con-
servatiye financial institution lies in
the fact that it was among the very
first TO be passed upon by the banking
commission and approved by Governor
Haskell as a state depository. IL was
number twenty-nine in passing the
rigid examination required Of the long
list OF state banks, in order to bring
them under the class Of Guaranteed
Depositories.
This alone speaks volumes for this
bank for, be IL known right now, thi,
recent examination was no make sniff
affair but an examination right dow
TO the scratch and ali banks failing tc
make the proper showing were deal
with without partiality. The Bank o
Beaver City is good institution anc
well managed. 1t is one that th'
people Of this section should be, nnc
are, Justly proud OF and merits TIN
firm support and patronage OF all.

Opposition for Fulton /.

new star has appeared on the
democratic congressional horizon in
the person OF County Judge J w. Cul-
well, Of Beaver City, Oklahoma, who
has decided that he will make the
race in the second district against Hon.
Elmer l.. Fulton, Of Oklahoma City.
This move on the part OF the friends
Of Culwell is rather surprising, al
though no one is able to see why he is
not available material. Culwell was
the chairman OF the convention that
nominated Fulton, and is especially
strong In the northwest. Fulton is no,
popular by reason Of the claim that he
was Republican before coming to
Oklahoma, and he is not thought to be
strong enough to carry the Second
district again.
Some time ago it was announced
that Dan Perry, of Carnegie, Oklahoma
would enter the race and he was then
supposed to have the support Of The
administration, especially the support
Of couple OF the high state officers
But the most recent conferences in thi
city develops the fact that Culwell i
the logical candidate.
Culwell is lifelong democrat, ant
has the added distinction of being ,

Woodward Wins Land Office

Washinton, Feb. l5.-Woodward has
won in the fight with Alva for the con-
solidated land Office which will be es-
tablished for thesh two Oklahoma dis
tricts. The policy of the Interior de-
partmenS is to reduce the number of
land Offices wherever it can be done
without sacrifice to the public interests.
When it was decided to consolidate the
Woodward and Alva offices bitter
contest was instituted between the
two towns Alva had the greatest po-
litical interest in the support of Sena-
tor Long. Ex-Governor Frantz and Dem
mis- Flynn. Woodward had for its
champion Representative Fulton.
Woodward had the advantage of being
nearer the larger number OF home
steads not yet taken and the Demo-
cratic representative won ON the
merits OF his case.

Greatest Lumber Cut.

More lumber was cut In the United
States last year than in any other year
In its history. The enormous amount
OF 81 $50, ,738 board feet was produced,
and the mill value of this was 1921 ISL +,
1888. In addition, there were produced
IL 1858 ,260, 600 shingles, valued at $24,
l55 ,555, and 3,sl2, ,s07, 600 lath, valued
at tll 400, $40. On the whole, it is safe
TO say that the present annual lumber
cut Of the United States approximates
40 billion feet, and that the total mill
value Of the lumber, lath, and shingles
each year produced is not less than
800 100000. These figures give some
idea Of how vast is the lumber industry
and how great is the demand for its
products.
| A glance at the kinds OF lumber pro-
duced shows very clearly the passing
Of white pine and oak, one the greatest
softwood and the other the greatest
hardwood which the forest has ever
grown. Since 1899 the cut Of white
pine has fallen of more than 40 per
cent, while that of white oak has fallen
OIL more than 30 per cent. To-day
yellow pine leads all other woods in
amount cut. while Douglas fir--and
this will be surprise TO many-comes
second. Since 1899 the cut OF Douglas
tir has increased 1855 per cent, Louis
lana IL the foremost yellow pine State,
with Texas, Mississippi, and Arkansas
following in order. Washington pro.
duces by far the greatest amount OF
Douglas fir.
A comparison OF the lumber produc-
ing States shows that since 1899 there
have been many changes in their rela.
tive rank. Washington, which in 1895
stood sixth, now leads, while Wiscon-
sin, which eight years ago led all
others, is now third. In the same
period Oregon, Louisiana, Mississippi
Idaho, and California made great
strides as lumber-producing States,
though, on the other hand, the amount
produced in Michigan, Wisconsin
Minnesota, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennes-
see, Missouri, Indiana. and Ohio of
anywhere from 10 to 81 per cent.
The highest-priced native woods are
walnut, hickory, and ash, and the
cheapest are larch and white FIR. From
the fact, however, that since 1890 the
average increase in the price OF lumber
has been ~ per cent, it will not be
long before cheap woods are few and
far between.

United States in 1905 are contained in
