TELLING FALSEHOODS.

The Oklahoma city townlot boom
ers are not fighting a contest for the
bill which they propose to initiate.
They are even angry because the peo.
pie of Guthrie and Shawnee, having
read the abortion they proposed to
the people, are united in opposition
10 the measure. still that capital re.
lnoyal outfit, working along the lines
of railways which cross this state
from north to south, thereby forcing
shipment Of products to either Texas
or Kansas, tell the story this is a
contest for permanent location OF the
state capital between Shawnee, Guth
rie and Oklahoma City
This is so palpably false it is act
ing as boomerang. Guthrie and
Shawnee have united with Other
communities whose people have read
the tenets of the proposed bill and
are IN full and whole opposition to
this awful proposition.
There Is no strife between the cities
whoever gets on the capitol commits
sion can blk the state, without the
people having recourse. The people
oil any community who favor Okla
homa City for the permanent capital
OF the state, owe II TO themselves 10
look at the bill before voting YES

Interest in Different Contests
Gradually Spreading and
Results VIII Be Beneficial

Everybody is talking hog and
hominy contests these days, and
while it Is too early to publish a
complete list of progressive Hem
derson farmers who willcompete
for the honors and the substan-
tial prizes offered it is safe tolsay
that the Western farmers, next
year. will not fatten their bank
accounts at the expense Of this
county.
C. E. Wilson, realizing the
terrific drain on this county
through buying farm products
instead of growing them, offers
a prize of fifteen dollars for the
best half acre of string beans
grown here this year. Contes-
tants must register at his store.
The three wholesale grocery
houses, during the past II months
state they have bought. out of
town., over 81, 600 worth of string
beans. EVERY DOLLAR of
this should have been spent with
Henderson county farmers.
The Hoopers Greek Agricul-
tural Club, recently formed. has
agreed to give $25, and probably
$50, to the boys of that town
ship, between Is and II years of
age, who raise the largest
amount of corn on one acre this
year. %. L. Merchant is secre-
tary of the club, Jonathan Case,

TO IMPROVE CITY WAFER.
City Authorities Adopt Res
oIution to Pipe Water from
Springs to Reservoir.

AS soon as possible the town
council will let contract for pip
ing the city water supply direct
from the various springs into the

This will avoid all possibility
of contamination and of a re-

formed persons scattered grossly
and wickedly exaggerated ac-
counts of contaminatioPin Hen

The State Board of Health
continues to give the best possi-

the reports reading no contami-

and as Chairman Mcintyre is
giving the matter his personal
attention the monthly reports
will continue to read that very
same old way.
But to avoid all possibility of
criticism the water will be piped
and the entire water shed guard
ed.
The council at their last meet
ing adopted a resolution, intro
duced by Mr.. j. Mack Rhodes,
making the necessary provisions
for this important improvement.
The resolution provided for $1,000
for municipal advertising and
whatever amount was necessary
to improve the water supply as
outlined above.
Messrs. Ross. Mcintyre, Viii

GRANT IN MORE TROUBLE
His Action In Another Pa
ronage Matter" Draws
Fire from j. B. Freeman.
fSpeciaI to NeaOs and 0bserVer.)

(SpecaGt TO NeeOS o1e1 oOsef'Oef.J
Asheville, N. c.. Feb. 2. 1t
has become known that Miss
Mary Ethel Jones, daughter of
7, viii Jones, has been appoint
ed postmaster of Fairview, sue
ceeding Henry Grant, who; how
ever, is no relation of Congress
man John G Grant. and thereby
hangs a tale of a whirlwind
which is likely to relieve the
Biltmore affair, in certain sec
tions at least.
Henry Grant is an old man,
over 70 years of age and his
friends urged that he be kept IN
office, not only on account of
party service but for humani-
tartan reasons as he needed the
money to support himself and his
wife, so years old and blind. To
urge this, friends of the post
master sent ]. B. Freeman,
known as Rome" to Washing
ton, to intercede with the Con-
gresham. He warned Grant of
the consequences if he removed
the old man; that it would be po-
litical suicide. He returned
feeling that all would be well,
but later it developed that Grant
was determined to appoint Jones
or a member of his family.
Protests from a number of
people of the Fairview section
availed naught, and today it be-
came known that Grant had
appointed a lady. 1t is charged
that in order to remove Grant,
the Congressman had the people,
at least those who wanted to get
Jones into the Office, to prefer
charges of incompetency against
the postmaster.
Today the old line Republicans
of that section are. hot.
Freeman haswritten Congress
man Grant a letter IN which. he
plainlystells him that the parting
of the ways have come. He has
been a bosom friend of the Con-
gresham, but he declares he
cannot longer be. To make en-
phatic his meaning he pictured
on the letter a sketch Of a part
ing hand. Freeman today open
ly declared that it is conservative
to say that this affair will cost
Grant 100 votes; that he and
those who stood by him, repre-
senting many of the best fami-
lies in this section will never
vote for a man who has given
them such treatment in return
fol. lifetime friendship Free
man waited long before burning
bridges behind him, but upon the
failure to get an answer from
Grant at Washington regarding
the appointment, he told repor-
ters to go ahead with the story.
and drove back to his farm,
twelve miles away, where he de-
clares he will work to down
Grant.
