NO CLEAN LINEN FOR HIM.
How oreech Of Kansas Secured His
First Public Office.

Guthrie, Ok, May 15.-The an
nouncement that ]. w. Creech OF
Harrington, Kan, has entered the race
for lieutenant governor in Kansas
has been received with a great deal
of interest by the old-timers in Okla
homa.
Creech was one of the pioneers OF
Kingfisher county, making the race
men ''old Oklahoma" was opened for
settlement in 1889 and securing a
claim adjoining the city of Kingfish-
er. He was from the beginning one
of the main boomers Of that town.
When the provisional city election
was held, two or three days after
the opening, candidates for mayor
were quite numerous, and the crowd
made the demand that every candi-
date get upon a pile of lumber SO
that they could get a good look at
him, according to the story told Dy
Captain J. v. Admire, one Of the
founders OF Kingfisher, and for
many years the editor of the King
fisher Free Press.
All the candidates who first were
suggested we're turned down In or
der for various reasons, the most
Objectionable Of which were a GOOD
suit Of clothes and a white collar.
Most Of the men who constituted the
electorate were not attired that way,
and many of those whose linen had
been clean on the opening day mad
not had q chance to renew 1t since
that time. Consequently they did
not want anyone who presented a
better appearance than they did
themselves. :.
che won't do; he's too nice +"
would be the verdict in each case
Finally Creech's name was men
toned. He was ambitious. So, prior
to making his appearance before the
crowd, he stopped down, filled both
hands with sand and dust, and poured
It over his head, neck and shoulders
giving especial attention to his col
liar. and then mounted the pile OF
lumber.
"He'll do. He's all right. He's
NO dandy Hurrah for Creech!'
yelled the crowd, and Creech ther
was unanimously chosen as the frs
mayor Of Kingfisher.
He was noted as a town builde
during his stay in Kingfisher am
was one Of the contractors who bull
the Rock Island railroad througl
, that town. Later he returned tit
Kansas and devoted himself alto
gether to railroad construction worn
, doing most of the new building 10
, the Rock Island in Kansas and Okla
, homa for number Of years.

GRANT CILLETTE SUED.
A Ranchnan Alleges He Wasn't Paid
for Feeding Cattle.

Grant G. Gillette was sued at Los
Angeles for sum aggregating, with
interest, nearly 100000, Gillette is
the spectacular cattle dealer who, ten
or twelve years ago, failed for very
large sum here and went to Mexico.
About a year ago Gillette went to
California. The present suit grew
out of claims alleged to be due w.
F. Dunlap, who says he pastured and
fed the cattle for Gillette. In pay
ment Dunlap alleges he received
checks or drafts which were not paid.

~ y
Manhattan Mercury: A candidate
for a place on the Maroon team was
shown the long trail because he was
afflicted with the notion he was q
lady-killer. This obsession also got
him into trouble in Abilene. He had
good prospects for making the team
but one day he put on his Sunday
clothes, and his purple sox and tip
ping his hat at rakish angle, he
started out to give the ladies a treat.
Hello, grille" he cooed affectionate-
" to the first woman he met, want
to take a walk?" She didn't want to
and, moreover, she told her husband
who happened to be the manager OF
the team and the career Of that can
didate at Abilene ended rather
abruptly.
