CONTINUE FIGHT
At WASHINGTON
Attorney Starr Leaves For National
Capital to Attend Supreme
Court.

]. G. Starr left last night for Wash
ington, D. c., to attend the supreme
court OF the District of Columbia on
September 2, where the law firm Of
Starr & Patten are interested in a
mandamus suit before that court
brought to compel the secretary of the
interior to deliver a patent to William
j. Twist and Herman Knight for
fifty acres of land located In the fam
Gus Flat Rock OIL pool, which Starr
& Patten recently won before the de-
partment of the interior. A hard fight
has been going on for the last few
days at Tulsa involving the posses
sion of twenty acres of this land and
on Saturday last the district court
granted an injunction restraining the
unsuccessful parties from interfering
with the oil company represented by
Starr & Patten in their operation of
twenty acres of the land for oil pur-
poses. Mr.. Patten is in charge of the
matter at Tulsa and will leave for
Washington where he will join Mr.

and will probably have to make his
campaign without aid. J. w. McNeal,
Guthrie banker, and brother Of Tom
McNeal of Topeka, has also made an
nouncement of his candidacy.
Outside of Jones and McNeal, Cash
Cade of Shawnee, republican national
committeeman, and Dr. l.. +. Cain Of
Checotah, private secretary to Con
gressman Creager, are the two candi-
dates who seem to be getting the most
publicity at the present time. Many
republicans win like to cut loose from
the old territorial regime, altogether
and get an entirely new man, II one
of gubernatorial caliber could be
found. No talk is indulged in regard
ing candidates for any other Office
than governor.

A GREAT BOON TO

Vlnita Building And Loan Association

Vacant Lots.

The Vinita Building & Loan associ

the company nd its officers and di-
rectors are home people. We are
glad to ser his institution thrive, as
it is the G latest single factor for i'm
proving Q vacant lots In town and
reducing taxes on homes already
built
There is strong demand for the
kind of money to build homes with,
and it hoped that every citizen who
has the advancement of Vinita at
heart will help it along by depositing
a dollar or so each week, by carrying
membership in the institution. 1t is
a good and safe investment and will
pay compound, semiEnnually very
large dividend to its members. Your
funds in this institution are not only
safe, but are accessible by withdrawal.
The headquarters of the Vinita
Building & Loan association are in
the Cherokee National bank. If any
one interested win call there the plan
OF the company will be thoroughly ex-
planned to him.
The books of the company are al
ways open for inspection by its mem
bers.

clung to the parachute. but it failed
to open. Turning several sommer-
saults the aeronaut fell to the earth,
striking head foremost few feet FROM

park terror stricken. Five women and
one man tainted, and two babies were
hurt in the excited crowd.
