NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Conditions in
the stock market are somewhat con-
f1icting. Stocks show surprising resist
ance to unfavorable developments; the
latter having been so largely dis
counted by the previous declines, that
easy money proved not only a very

This week further Improvement has
taken place in the monetary situation
Funds are returning freely from the
interior and coming back out of hoard

once paid to a booksellers shop in Ida :

"Oh," was the answer, hes rancn

What do you think of his book? p
'sWell," said the dealer, 'I've always
thought I'd like to meet that author
and tell him that if he'd stuck to run
ming ranches and not tried to write
books, he'd have cut a heap bigger fig

decided by the supreme court. II
was decided TO start proceedings inn
me diately. The attorney general
! told counsel that he had made no
ruling on the subject and that the

tomey general had been quoted as
saying that the treasurers and
sheriffs could not be elected for a
second term.
In the event that the Supreme

declared that five years of his

predicted that within twenty five
years Oklahoma would rank
first in the sisterhood of states.

side instead of round. Don't SOW
