MAYES WINS
WRESTLING MATCH

The wrestling match at the Grand
was literally patronized last night
which convinces Us that the sporting
public want that kind Of sport and will
support it. The match last night be-
tween Kari Segfried, champion of the
German navy and Hiner Mays, pop
ular tonsorial artist of Vinita, was a
sample of the clean gentlemanly
wrestling that will be offered 10 the
public OF yinita. II was evident from
the start that the German was not in
it, Mays being the favorite ? to l early
in the day, but Karl is confident he
can put one over the barber and has
offered TO throw Mays twice in one
hour for a purse OF s100. This match
will probably take place Friday night,
at the Grand under the auspices of the
Pastime Athletic Club of Vinita, a new
club recently organized in yinita. its
object being to promote sports of all
kinds. They expect to put in a CON-
plete gymnasium as soon as suitable
quarters can be secured.
Mays won the first fall in 29 min
utes and 43 seconds, he having his op.
ponent locked with a lever head and
hammer lock, which the Dutchman
was powerless to break. The second
fall was also won by Mays in 16 min
utes and 40 seconds. He having again
secured a hammer lock. At one time
the German got a strangle hold on
Mays and had not the referee, Clair
Gellert ordered him to let go there is
no telling how bad Mays would have
been hurt The strangle hold was
barred.
The preliminary between John King
and Ed Baker was enjoyed very much.
They succeeded in convincing the audi
ence that they we're white hopes. They
went ) fast and furious rounds. In the
middle Of the fifth round Eddie Baker
injured his best friend (thumb on
right hand) making it necessary to
call the bout a draw. Had it not been
for the accident, they would have
fought TO a finish possibly 40 or so
rounds
The Pastime Club announced a card
for Wednesday, September 25th, to be
pulled off at the Grand. Two prelim-
inaries. 4 and rounds each, and a 10
round go between Red Cameron OF
Omaha, Neb., and Frank Carrella of
indianapolis, Ind. These men will go
at 145 pounds ringside. Both men are
tough nuts with regulations that some
of the white hopes~enyy. This bout
will be worth the price of admission
lalone. The management promises a
battle royal that will eclipse anything
seen in this part of the state Every
body interested should come out, as
the success of this club depends en-
tirely on the support Vinita people
give it. If you want the sports to con-
Itinue during the winter, turn out and
boost for the club. We will try it out
the 18th. Come out everybody.

New York, Sept lS.-Judge NJ j.
Wade, national committeeman from
Iowa arrived in New York from Chi
cago headquarters.
I'VE have a regular prairie fire in
the west, made up Of Wilson senti-
ment, said Judge Wads.
The situation is growing more IA
vorable to democratic success at every
tick of the clock There is no telling
where Roosevelt and Taft viii stand.
Personally l think that Roosevelt will
run second in the majority of the west
ern states feel that he will run sec
ond in Iowa, but our state chairman,
who is most excellent political judge,
tells me that Roosevelt will not get
more than 40 per cent of the reDubli-
can vote. and there you are
The Roosevelt sentiment has not
crystallized, but is scattered and run
ming around like so much mercury. We
of the west are wonderfully pleased
over the labor sentiment that is turn
ing to Governor Wilson every day The
labor vote of this country is one of
the most important factors in an cleo
ton The laboring man is doing his
own thinking and he is going to vote
as he sees fit.
So far we find extraordinarily good
news in all labor circles

WOODROW TALKS
LIKE A GENTLEMAN

New York, Sept 1S.-'.In addition
TO all his other excellent attributes
Governor Wilson is a gentleman at all
times. says the York Pa Gazette
The excitement and turmoil Of q
presidential campaign are not suiH
cient TO overthrow his poise or TO ex
cite him 10 Incorporate language. He
has been the target of enough mis~ep
resentation, extending all the way
from statements based upon a mtsun
derstanding of his position to malicious
peVersion OF facts with intent to de
ceive. to make excusable some dis
play of temper But he has kept cool
Particularly calling must have been
the language of the Third Termer
But he has remained unmoyed.
In his address before the New Yo.k
Press Club, Governor Wilson took
occasion to discuss the Roosevelt
party. Instead Of the Incorporate, and
at times insulting, manner in which
Roosevelt has treated him, the COVER
nor paid a high tribute to the really
honest members Of that party that
must make them hang their heads in
shame when comparing it 10 the at
tacks made upon Wilson and democ
racy by their leader and some of their
organs. 1t is a speech that ought tc
be read by all men. 1t is the mes
sage of real men. 1t is not the hysteri
ca Exclamation of man with a griev
ance which he exalts into a cause.
After paying a high tribute to those
who really believe in the Roosevelt
cause, Governor Wilson calmly anC
carefully points out the yery obviou,
fact that, even if their candidate
should be elected, he could not at al
carry out the program which the party
has laid down. He does not feel call
ed upon to denounce any man as ;
liar or a crook or assert that anyone
is guilty of false pretense. but COL
tents himself with calling attention L
the great mistake being made by those
who hope to accomplish anything
through this movement.
In a gentlemanly manner he tells
the public that the democratic part.
has been progressive for sixteen years
and that through it, and it alone, cal
come the relief demanded, which j!
strictly true. Nor does ne intimate
that a man is a crook or a fool be
cause he is real republican. He layi
the blame right where it belongs wheI
he says that that party has oeeI mis-
led by its leaders until now it S help
less and hopeless. He lays no claim
to divinity or infallibility Oh his par
or that of his party. but shows that o
all parties it is the one best adapted
to the present needs Of the public
is no wonder that he is ganin.

As a territory Oklahoma had Guth-
rie for its capital, but after it became
a state the people voted to transfer
the capital to Oklahoma City The
population of the capital is now 64,205,
having grown from 1O,037 in 1900, or
an increase OF more than 539 per cent
in ten years This is a greater per
centage of grain than is shown by any
city in the United States during the
same time. 1t is big wholesale or
jobbing center. selling large volumes
OF groceries, hardware. dry goods,
shoes, saddlery harness. etc and its
trade extends nearly all over Okla
homa and reaches to the Panhandle
and west central part of Texas. Ii is
an important meat-packing point, and
has extensive oil and -four mills, cot
ton congresses and machine shops
Next to Oklahoma City in import
ance comes Muskogee. with a popula-
ton OF 25,27S, according to the 1910
census Muskogee was formerly the
capital OF Indian Territory proper, and
is still the distributing and financial

tories we're combined and admitted to
the Union as the State OF Oklahoma,
the government took a special census,
which showed the population Of the
united territory TO be 1.414.1T7 10 the
government census Of 1910 they are
credited with l.675.l55. This indicates
a growth during these three years OF
.242,s7s. Oklahoma contains 7O,43o

they were admitted to statehood.
Growth Of the State.
In every way the state has shown
remarkable growth In 1910 she pro
duced 1888, 900 bushels OF wheat, 92,-
$4,000 bushels OF corn and 23.06S, 600
bushels Of oats, and 1885, 900 tons of
hay. In kafir corn she turned out
10. 900 900 bushels and 500, 900 bush
els OF potatoes. The value of live
stock OF every kind Gncluding poultry
and bees) totaled up the enormous
amount Of Sl52. .432.792. which is an in
crease Of s56.224,529 over 1910. The
only falling of was in range cattle,
due to the fact that the range area is
being reduced by dividing the land
into farms, much OF course, TO the ben
eft OF the state In the production of
natural gas Oklahoma claims TO be
second only to Kansas, and the state
has big coal fields around McAlester
and Coalgate. in the southeastern sec
ton, the coal mines at the former
place being a semi-anthracite of ex-
celent quality. In 1909 the output
was 3,119.377 tons For the most part
Oklahoma is a rolling prairie. with a
good growth OF timber in the eastern
section. The far western end, origi-
nally part of the Great Plains, is a
farming country, but needs irrigation
or careful conservation Of the mois-
ture to be successfully titled. The
eastern part of the state, or the old
Indian Territory, is a splendid agri-
cultural section, with plenty of rain,
and raising wheat, corn, potatoes and
other crops most successfully. Cotton
does well. The five civilized tribes of
Indians-the Cherokees. Choctaws,
Chickashas, Creeks and Seminoles-
have dissolved their tribal rights and
have become citizens of the United
States, and eight million acres of land
formerly belonging to the tribes are
now being sold

Dedication and Birthday Offering.

The pastors conference at Dallas
fixed the date on January 8, 1918. for
the dedication of Mamma Hall.
And the Dallas County Missionary
Baptist Association, in regular session
October 8, 1912, endorsed the move to
raise at least $4,000 to the credit Of
that same day, January 8, which is
Dr. Buckner's eightieth birthday, and
voted unanimously to raise $4,000 Of
the amount. This was done on the
motion of our noble brother, George
w. Truett. All money and gifts will
go exclusively to Buckner Orphans
Home, nothing to DR.. Buckner.
Based on this action, printed letters
were issued, the same bearing the
signatures of Robert H. Coleman, F..

hoped that this benevolent effort will
meet with universal approval. If fur
