Congrossmen generally who have a
pretty clear conception of what the
people want are convinced that tho
utilization OF the water-power IN the
naylgable and other streams Of the
country constitutes one Of the most
vital problems connected with the In
dustrial development OF the United
States, They counted II would be a
very stupid kind OF statesmanship
that could not solve the problem Of
caring for navigation and at the same
time allowing the use OF water-p power
especially where there Is willingness
to 50 compensate the government for
the power afforded as 10 bear lib-
oral share IN carrying out and main

CARING FOR C0UNTY'S
POOR proves costly
DURING THE YEAR $4,000 HAS
GONE FOR THIS PURPOSE
A RETRENCHMENT.

The Tulsa County Board of County
Commissioners met yesterday in their
regular monthly meeting. Most of
the time was taken up with routine
matters, such as allowing claims
against the county.
The work Of caring for the poor
Of the county came in for some talk,
and n little adverse criticisms. The
commissioners seemed inclined to be-
llere that the work was costing the
county too much. II was stated thar
during the past year the county has
paid out $4,000 for the care of crip-
pies and destitute persons.
There will probably be some re-
trenchment in this department, but
no action was taken yesterday.

The largest deals the Prairie oil y

country. The leases were department
leases, all the land having been owned
by Indians ana were in the usual
course Of events sent on to Washing
ton for approval by the Secretary
Of the Interior,
Departing from the usual custom in
such cases, It is said that a large
part, or ALL Of the two million dol

by the Prairie OH Il Gas Company
beforo any report had been received
from the department as TO the lease.
Finally word came from Washington

Fanchcr hastily went to Washing

frank about the matter He said the
reason that he had withheld his APP

reported to have said that he did not
believe the price paid for oil in okla

and that therefore. the Indian royal-
ties were not as great as they should

holding up of the leases might be used
as a leverage for forcing n better prico

failed to receive any substantial en-

SOUTH
FOR WILSON
MERIDIAN, MIss., DISPATCH SAYS
THE PEOPLE ARE PREPARING
To,AssERT THEMSELVES.

The following is from The Meridian
(Miss.) Dispatch:
II present Indications count for any
thing, WOODROW Wilson, governor OF
| New jersey, will receive practically
| the solid vote of the south in the
| Democratic national convention for
president.
It now appears that most Of the
southern states will instruct for him,
| though it can be counted in advance
tnar many Of the politicians will OPP
pose instructions. They always do.
the reason fort is that it gives
such of them as are placed on the
oeIesatlon, more power. In the end,
tney nope to have more power with
the man who is nominated should. he
be elected president.
Never before, however, in the his
tory Of the country, has there been
such determination on the part of
the people to rule things for them
serves, and 1t may be remarked in
passing that this has been one thing
that has helped to make woodrow
Wilson popular-he is contending for
popular rule. The people being de-
term1ned to have a-ayoice in the selec-
ton of Democfatican and still
more determined not to delegate this
power to self-seeking politicians who
may De convention delegates, it is safe
to predict that majority of the
southern states win instruct outright
for Governor wilson.
If 1t were not for the magnificent
record Governor Wilson has made az
chief executive IF New Jersey and for
the strong stand he has taken against
boss rule and in the interest Of the
people, 1t would be difficult to under
stand his popularity among people who
had never heard of him, save as an
educator, until few years ago. But
the masses are reading and thinking,
and they have reached the Conclusion
that woodrow Wilson is a man Of con-
man of courage. and a man
who believes in a fair deal in the adj
ninistratlon of governmental affairs.
so 1t has come about that Governor
wilson is generally recognized amons

ne southern people as the proper man
Tor the Democratic nomination for the

y every newspaper in the state, daily

light for Governor Wilson, or Is quite
friendly to him.

an organism untitled for the trial or
strength, and when the strain is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Follow
ing right upon this comes the nervous
strain of caring for the child, and a
distinct change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of chill
dren, and indeed childbirth under right
conditions need be no hazard to health
or beauty The uneXplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting
from an unprepared condition, women
will persist in going bindlyto the trial.
1t isn't as though the experience
came upon them unawares. They have
ample time in which to prepare, but
they, for the most part, trust to Chance
and pay the penalty.
In many homes once childless there
are now children because of the fact
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound makes women normal
healthy, and strong.
ANY woman who would like
special advice in regard to this
matter is cordially invited to
write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass. Her letter will be held in
strict confidence.
