ADVERTISE SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA LANDS
At VERY LOW RATES FOR NINETY DAYS

The filing Of land suits in the fed
eral court has had the effect Of making
all titles on the Indian Territory side
OF the state questionable and has
served to keep many investors out OF
this state. Such doubts ought not to
exist. There are thousands Of farms
here for sale where the title is as
good as in any portion Of the world
Southern Oklahoma needs to have
these lands purchased and put in a
state Of cultivation Farmers in other
states need the lands, they should
know that titles are good in Oklahoma,
they should know something Of the
lands and something Of the products
that eroW here
In order to give the farmer IN other

MUCH WORK TO DO
Blythe ASSOCIATION
Secretary Boswell Again Calls At
tention to Meeting of Upper
Mississippi Organization.

Secretary B. Boswell of the Up
per Mississippi River improvement
association writes from Quincy again
calling attention to the coming ninth
annual meeting of that organization
to be held at ST. Paul July II and
IS. He says:
1--WE are DESTROYS of having each
city and town in the upper valley,
from st. Louis to Duluth, represent
ed at the convention by men who
are active and representative of the
progressive element in each locality.
THE river and harbor bill of 1910
makes ample provision for the final
completion, within IL years, of the
permanent improvement of the up
per river, maintaining six feet in
depth at low water. This will ac-
complish the original purpose of the
association and friends of waterway
navigation in this valley have cause
for congratulation.
But our work is not yet complet-
ed, for with an improved river we
must have boats, of modern construc-
ton for the cheap and speedy move
ment of all freight. Landing places
must be improved. A complete
change from ancient to modern meth
DDS of transportation and handling
freight must receive needed atten-
ton. These, with other important
topics come within the purview of
the convention. 1t is important to
shippers that the commercial element
be fully represented at the conven-
ton.

From the questions asked by the
state in the examination of prospective
jurors, it appears the state is to insist
or at least make a determined effort to
secure capital punishment for the de-
PENDANT in case of verdict of guilty.
Every juror is asked if he believes in
the death penalty for a murderer, and
if he answers negatively that excuses
him from service as far as the state is
concerned.

washington, Dec. 24.-Santa Claus
VIII distribute $90,00O.00o worth of
purchased Christmas gifts this year to
persons In the United States. This is
the estimate of Victor II. Olmsted.
ch1ef OF the bureau of statistics of
the department of agriculture. It is
entirely unofficial, however, and Mr..
OImsted doesn't want to stake his rep-
utation as mathematician on it.
Andrew Carnegie's gift of $11,5o0,-
600 in the interest of worldwide peace
and John D. Rockefeller's gift of $10,-
100000 to the Chicago university were
little too early for Christmas. If
they were counted the grand total
would be $111.5OO,0OO.
Mr.. Olmsted's estimate, or guess. as
you prefer. has only to do with the
actual cash purchases. He saws there
is perhaps s5.oOO.o 900 more in debts.
He also estimates that fully one-half
OF the people of the United States will
make gifts that do not cost actual
money. OF the remaining 45,00O,00O.

spend their money according to their
salaries and their mental state. He es-
Inmates that those with a social bent
Will spend on an average SIS, while the
home-loving ones will average about
81. Children's presents, he figures,
will average SO cents.
After taking all these in considera-
ton, Mr.. Olmsted has hazarded the
tual money that has been spent or will
be spent in the United States for
Christmas presents by half of the pop
ulation that does the spending is 81.
That makes an average of 81 for

TO Be NO STRIKE.
Railway Managers and the En-.
gineers Brought Together
Through Mediation of Com.
merce Commissioner Neill.

Chicago, Dec. 24.-"No strike OF the
railroads west, north and south of
Chicago by the engineers"
This was the brief announcement
given out today at the close of the
midday conference between the rail-
way managers, the engineers repre-
sented by Grand Chief Warren s.
Stone of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers and Mediator Charles
P. NeilI
None of the details in the plan of
Mediator Chas. P. Neil1 was given
out with the first announcement 1t
was explained that features of the
agreement would have to be drawn up
and would be given out later.
1t was admitted however, that the
plea of United States commission,
Charles p. Neill, who was acting as
mediator, that each side had agreed
that the claims originally set up would
be modified.
Up to the time of Mr.. NeilI's arrival,
the engineers were seeking practically
IT per cent increase in the old pay.
The railroad had agreed to a raise
approximating 8 II per cent and there
they hung. AS early as Thursday 1t
was conceded by both sides that only a
small margin of difficulties separated
them, but that each side feared that
greater questions than that of wages
were being brought in.
When today's conference was be-
gun Mediator Neiu announced that his
efforts were about concluded and that
unless the conferees reach a settlement
today, there was little use for him to
rmain in Chicago. Visions of arbitra-
tion under the Erdman act on the 9TH
er hand and of a long, destructive
strike on the other brought the op-
ponents together within an hour after
the conference began.

KILLED BY A TRAIN.
Alexander Gahey, Aged Man, Caught
at Cattle Guard.

Alexander Gahey, an old man living
northwest of Topeka and about three
miles east of Menoken on the old
Bolmar road, was struck and killed by
Union Pacific train as he attempted
to cross a cattle guard.
1t is thought the old man, who is
nearly deaf and quite feeble. had wan
dered from his home believing himself
able to walk to Topeka. The train
which struck him was the fast east
bound No. 104 passenger. The en-
gineer in charge reported to local
Agent E. w. Jette that he had struck
a man, and that he had done all in
his power to warn the man and to stop
his train without avail.
Coroner H. H. Keith was summoned
imme ediately and hurried in his motor
car to the scene. There were no
blood marks on the body Of the dead
man but his head and body were badly
crushed.
For several years Mr.. Gahey and
his aged wife have made their home
with their daughter, Mrs. George Ha-
maker, who lives near the place of the
accident. A neighbor A. V. Harwood,
assisted Mr.. Hamaker in removing the
body to the Hamaker home.
Later, after a Union Pacific crew
had investigated the track near the
scene and DR.. Keith had completed his
examination, the body was turned over
to Shellabarger & Son, undertakers, to
be prepared for burial.
