v|NITA HIGH SCHOOL
EASILY DEFEATS MIAMI

The Vinita high school baseball
team easily defeated the Miami high
school ON the grounds of the latter
yesterday afternoon, by the score of
16 to 8.
The Vinita lads easily outplayed
their opponents at every stage of the
game. Belew pitched for Vinita and
allowed but four hits, while the visi-
tors gathered twelve singles off of
Calvin's delivery. Bailey for Vinita
proved the hitting sensation of the
game. Errors were numerous on both
sides. The Vinita boys were well
treated at Miami and appreciate the
privilege of playing with such a gent
lemanly team.

general manager of the Washita Elec-

In the adjustment, A. E. Perry, of

Immediately after the adjustment, the
stock of the company advanced 33 1-3

on at the big power plant across the
Washita, setting the great dynamos

the only power charter taken out un-

and that towns within proper radius
will be supplied by this company with
cheap electrical power and made tc

TAFT AGREES TO
/. SELL COAL LANDS
Policy Expected to Meet With Strong
Opposition From Certain Repub-
ican Senators.

Washington, April 2. = Secretary
Ballinger, after a conference with
President Taft, has told members of
the Oklahoma delegation that the
president is anxious to have the af-
fairs of the Five Civilized Tribes clos
ed up speedily, and would have the
bill provide for the disposition of the
segregated coal lands somewhat like
coal lands are now dispofed of by the
general government in the west to
the best bidders--with the limitation
that one man shall not control more
than 1850 acres. The presidents
idea, it is said, is to dispose of the
matter speedily and in business-like
way, yet at the same time with am
pie protection to the Indians and with
provision limiting the holdings in
order to keep the coal from falling in
to the hands of a monopoly.
1t is expected that Secretary Bal
lnger will shortly recommend to the
house committee on Indian affairs the
passage of the Creager bill with GER
tain notifications of the provision
for the sale of the coal lands
Such a bill, it is understood, would
meet with strong opposition from GER
tain republican senators. LaFollette
and Curtis both favor the sale of the
coal to the government for the better
control of its sale to the consuming
public, while all of the progressives
are expected to resist any effort to let
this vast supply of fuel fall into the
hands of private individuals without
ample safeguards to prevent com
bination among the operators and
consequent exorbitant high prices to
the consumer.

GOVERNOR WANTS TO
SATISFY STATE BANKERS

Guthrie, Okla, April 2.-What is
interpreted to be another slap at
Charles A. Taylor, state examiner and
inspector, who, for several weeks has
been seeking an examination of the
books and assets of the defunct Co
lumbia Bank and Trust company, OF
Oklahoma City, has been given by
Governor Haskell. who addressed a
letter to w. S. Guthrie Of Oklahoma
City, vice president of the state bank
ers' section of the Oklahoma Bankers
association, proposing that his organi-
zation appoint committee to make
an examination of the disbursements
of the assets of the failed institution.
The governor states that asEthe de-
positors of the institution have been
paid, the public ceases to have any in
terest in the affair of the bank, but
suggests the appointment of the COM
mittee to satisfy the state bankers
association.

Naples, April 2.-Col. Roosevelt and
family arrived here early this morn
ing from Egypt and were welcomed by
American ambassador, the city au-
thorities and commander of the fort
Thousands of Americans who have
been travelling in Italy have swarmed
into the city and have been augment
ed by hundreds of tourists from the
big excursion steamers in the bay at

Ambassador Lehman and members
of the American embassy arrived last
night. Although no official reception
lis to be encouraged by the Italian au-
thoities in honor of the distinguished
guest, the mayor of Naples
has delegated alderman Del Ce to
present to him the welcome of the
city. No fixed program has been
made for the ex-president's stay here
but it is probable that he will hold
an informal reception at the Excel

Now, what in brief, does this COM
mission plan achieve:
Il. 1t abolishes party politics from
local affairs.
%. 1t eliminates the boss, the
CRATER, and the political machine.
''3. 1t views a municipality as a
great business enterprise, and pro-
yides accordingly for its effective
management.
81 1t recognizes definitely the
failure Of representative government
and substitutes therefor a system Of
democracy; it recognizes the fact that
there is no wisdom but collective wis
DOM
'5 1t establishes direct RESPONSE
bility for every public act
'6 1t seems to be swift, efficient,
economical, and adapted to ration
al community in the twentieth cen
tury.
''7 1t abolishes a raft of useless
Offices. sinecures, jobs, and political
rewards, and substitutes organization,
method, and work"
Is not this splendid system" wor-
thy OF the careful consideration of our
city fathers, as well as every citizen
of this young, healthy, and growing
city of Vinita?

ORGANIZE FIGHT
ON TUBERCULOSIS
Monthly Report of State Board, For
March, Issued, With Vital
Statistics.

Guthrie, Okla, April 2.-The report
of the state board of health for March
and vital statistics for February, is
sued Friday inaugurate a statewide
campaign against the tuberculosis of
the lungs, and rules are given the pub
lie for prevention and cure of the
disease. During February tuberculo-
sis was the most fatal of all contag-
ious and infectious diseases, the death
rate being so per cent of the cases
reported to the department. Out of
122 cases, 81 were recorded as being
fatal. The department bulletin calls
attention to the ordinary sanitary
rules, supplementing special rules for
patients, and declares there is nothing
dangerous in the malady If properly
attended to. AS a starter, the board
abolishes the public drinking cup May
1. Among other things the board Of
health says:
Consumption of the lungs is the
most fatal form of tuberculosis, and of
the bowels is the next most fatal form
To prevent tuberculosis. persons
among n;iei' things must not sleep
with person having the disease, not
use public drinking cups, not neglect
colds and coughs, not permit con-
sumptive to kiss you on the mouth,
and you must refrain from the use
of intoxicating liquors"
Consumption is not very fatal
disease, and the majority of those at
tackled recover. Fresh air, whole
some food and sunshine are necessary
| factors, since consumption is caused
| by errors in our ways of living Keep
the bedclothing clean, do not swallow
expectoration, take plenty of rest for
body and mind, don't worry, keep out
of doors and refrain from use of liq-
uors, except upon advice of physician.
Let patent medicines alone and eat
plenty of meat, butter and eggs, and
drink milk; refrain from undue ex-
haustion One person out of every
seven, and one child out of every ten
dies from tuberculosis. Vital statistics
for the year 1909 shows there were
663 deaths from tuberculosis There
were 9,134 deaths from all diseases
during the year The percentage
should never he higher, and the way
to prevent it is to encourage every
movement which has as it's object the
eradication of tuberculosis and its
prevention We believe in the estab-
lishment of county hospitals for the
treatment of consumptive patients"
The vital statistics for February, is
sued with the report. shows that out
of SO cases of diphtheria, 13 were
fatal; of Ill cases of scarlet fever, z
died; 2S of the 1888 cases of smallpox
proved fatal; there were Ia deaths out
of rs cases of typhoid fever, and 1874
cases of pneumonia out of Sal cases
were fatal
During the month there were 2,071
births and 93S deaths, a net gain in
population of 1,1SS. Of the births,
1876 were males and 955 females,
