Just what TO do when the kid
neys are affected, Is a question that
concerns both young and old. Weak
kidneys neglected In childhood lead
TO lifelong suffering. People OF
advanced years, with less vitality,
suffer doubly. In youth or age,
languor, backache, urinary lrregu-
larity, dizziness and nervousness
make life a burden
There is one remedy that acts d.
rectly on the kidneys. Doan's Kid
ney pills owe their worldwide fame
TO the fact that they have cured
thousands OF cases OF sick kidneys
and cured them permanently. Fol.

FRIENDS PREVENT A FIGHT.
Bryan And White Clash at Meeting
of Farmers Institute.

Oklahoma City, Aug. 14.-At the
annual meeting of the state farmers
institute at Saltwater. Vincent Of
Claremore and McAllister of Custer
county were selected as members Of
the state board of agriculture to sue
ceed Cobb and Diehl who were not
candidates for reelection.
The meeting was stormy enc, and
a fight between President G. T, Bryan
of the board of agriculture and Ewers
White, republican member of the
board, was prevented only by the in
tervention of friends. White was try.
ing to make a speech, when Bryan
ruled him out of order, and ordered
him to take his seat White refused
and Bryan called for nofficer. When
none responded, he started down the
aisle to enforce his ruling.

Two other men have placed them
selves on Ambassador Herrick's aux
iliary staff-Mr. Todd Ford, of Cali
fornia. and Mr.. ingalls,, son of ex-
Senator ingalls,, of Kansas. Neither
of the men is receiving compensation
for his services. Mr.. Ford is prepar-
ing himself for the diplomatic service.
The services Of these men, Ambas-
sador Herrick believes, will enable
the embassy to push the work of the
compilation of the various reports
which will be sent in by the American
diplomatic officers that the final re-
port win be ready for President Taft
by October next, which will probably
give him an opportunity to submit his
legislative views at the next session
of congress, which convenes in De
cember.

Credit systems Of Europe.

Washington, Aug. Ambassador
Herrick of Paris reports to the state
department today that in his work of
investigating the cooperative credit
systems of Europe he has the volun-
tary ass stance of Mr.. Edwin Chamber
lain, of Nan Francisco, as representa-
tive of the American Bankers Associ-
alton, and Mr. John d. Dillon, presi-
dent of the Agricultural Association
of New York. These men are giving
their services gratis simply to assist
Ambassador Herrick in the compila-
ton of his exhaustive report on Euro
pean cooperative credit systems which
it is proposed to make the basis of
some system of land mortgage banks
to be organized in this country
Mr. Herrick also reports that Mr.. E.
n. Breitung, of Marquette, Mich, and
Mr.. Breckinridge Jones, of ST. Louis,
Mo-. are now en- route to Paris and
will add their services in the work of
investigating this question. MIR. Brei-
tung is interested in the ore business
in the northwest, and considers that
the cooperative credit system will
work wonders in the development of
the waste lands of the northwest,
which for years have remained unde-
yeloped, in his opinion. largely on ac-
count of the lack of cheap money. Mr..
Jones is also man of Independent
fortune, and has volunteered to help
Mr.. Herrick simply because of the
great benefit which he. as a banker,
believes will accrue to the American
farmer and, through him, to the entire
nation through the adoption of the CO
operative credit system in the United
States.

The Excise Roard,s Leyn

Editor of The Chieftain:
! notice that you take exceptions to-
the levy of the excise board for the
city of Vinita an dthe city schools,
and say that surplus should have
been left in the treasury as a starter
on account Of the fifty per cent raise
last year by the state board of equaliz-
alton. In the first place desire to
say that the excise board does not
make the estimates nor do the mem
bers thereof make the expenditures.
Furthermore the excise board last
year did not make the levy until after
the fifty per, cent raise by the state
board had been certified to the coun-
ty clerk, and therefore the levy was
made on the assessed valuation after
the increase had been added to the
original assessment.
You also state that we levied
$4,252.23 excess of what wes allowed
by the board. The law requires that
the board add ten per centum to the
amount allowed for delinquent taxes,
The excise board revised the city
and school estimates and reduced the
city estimate $2,177.6S, and reduced
the school estimate $S,2S6.0O The tax
payers of Vinita remember that at the
last election they voted to build a
bridge across Bull creek at Sequoyah
avenue at a cost of 100000, and to
purchase equipment for the fire de
partment amounting to 100000. The
city authorities can not build bridges
and buy fire wagons, etc, without
money, and if the people do not want
to pay for such things they should
vote different.
The excise board will again be in
session the 9th day of September,
1912, and l invited you and any other
interested party to examine the esti-
mates carefully in the meantime and
then offer such suggestions to the
board as you deem proper. We have
power to reconsider those estimates,
and if any one can show the board
where they can make further reduc-
ton, without crippling the schools
and city government, am satisfied
the board will gladly make the reduc-
ton. for one desire to mske the
levy as low as possible.
Respectfully,
c. CALDWELL.

shorter, and urging the enactment of
laws that would conserve the fuel for
domestic purposes, drew reply from
C. H. Cleveland, republican nominee

Mr.. Cleveland declares that the pro-
Educer of natural gas should have the
same right to sell his products as do
the farmers, and that the law should
admit OF no inequality in restrictions.
West illustrated in his letter the vary
ing scale of prices by saying that the
washwoman paid 25 cents per 1000
fleet, whereas the smelter usually paid
but 5 cents per 1000. Cleveland re-
plies that the amount of gas used has
all to do with the price, and says that
lif the attorney general will investigate
he will find the same washwoman pay.

THE OLD TIME
GAME, HORSE SHOES

There is at least one class OF people
in this busy little city Of ours, who
are never wearied by the monotonies
of life, and whether the weather be
hot or cold, rain or shine, they al
ways have some game or amusement
to help them pass the tiresofne hours
away.
With these people the seasons are
usually spent playing and discussing
the national game of baseball or foot
ball but in the periods of the year
when even these things seem out of
place and the long hot afternoons
lengthen into days then their minds
revert back to the pastimes of their
early days and of their fathers, and
in this particular period OF the year
the old time game of horseshoes has
been chosen to furnish amusement
for the over active clique in this city,
and for the past few days that splen-
did old game has prevailed.
All the people who read this under
stand the game and know that the
purpose is to throw your horse shoe
nearer the stake than can you oppon-
ent, and that some mighty interesting
climaxes can be reached in the game.
Yesterday and today has seen a
horse shoe game in progress in many
back yards and in almost every back
alley of the down town district and
the clang of the shoes striking the
iron stakes does not make very pleas
ant music to the unfortunate ones
who are forced to work in the stores
and shops nearby to one of these ex-
citing contests.
If you have never played this game
try it once today, and you'll soon be
numbered in the ranks with the hun
dreds of other enthusiasts and you
too, will find it difficult to attend
strictly to business while there is a
game going on in your vicinity.

that the system of conducting under
world houses that emplay women in

white slavery, and that the operations

that within a few hours arrests will

The investigation has been conduct

only brought to climax when on
Tuesday Mrs. E. L. Wallace, an aged
woman ON trial before the commits
sioner on white slavery charge, gave
testimony that resulted in her being
held pending grand jury Indictment.
Technically it is in violation of the
white slave law to barter women, In

charged that many Of the proprietors
OF houses in Tulsa are members of a
semi-organized system which not only
introduces new victims to the brothel
| but classifies and exchanges those
who are already inmates. Either in
stance is a violation of the law.
The probable arrests are said to be
of men who have recently sent women
from Kansas City and other cities
here, and of the men and women who
receive them. knowledge of the sys
tenn to the smallest detail is said tc
be in the hands Of the government on
