Peach Growers Decide
To Cut Down Orchards

Americas, Ca, July 18.-Ameri'
Gus orchardmen finished today the
shipping of peaches with probably
| 175 carloads sent forward, While
returns are not completed, it is not
believed that any considerable
amount was realized on sales and
the season was somewhat disap-
pointing.
AS the result of adverse condi-
tons one if not more of the large
orchards here will be cut down and
the land planted to more remunera-
tive crops. The owner of one of the
LARGEST orchards here has announced
his intention of thus disposing
of 100000 preach trees, preferring
raising cotton to the less profitable
Ebertas.

by some of the most noted divines
of the country. Mr.. Hutton has ac-
copied the invitation and leaves

He requests US to announce,
though, that there will be preach
ing Sunday morning as usual, at

B. Burritt finds that the decline in the number of grad

sons OF teaching law and medicine and particularly of
those that go into business.
At Harvard the ministry yielded the leadership to law

business took the lead At Yale the ministry competed
successfully with the law until after the middle Of the
nineteenth century, when law took the ascendancy and

profession OF college graduates with 2 per cent business

GILL GETS IN
AWKWARD CLASS
NAMED BY CRUcE FOR EDUCA.
TION BOARD. HE ACCEPTS
PRESIDENCY OF NORMAL.

Oklahoma City, Okla, oct. l.
State Superintendent Wilson and the
three deposed members of the state
board of education today scored a
point in their controversy with Gov.
Cruce when they announced through
the state superintendent depart
men the appointment of w. f. Gill of
Pawhuska as president of the Table
Quah normal to succeed Frank f..
Buck, resigned. Gill was one of those
recently named by Gov. Cruce as a
member of the state board of educa-
tion in place of the three deposed
members 1t was learned tonight
that Bucks resignation was rendered
week ago. Gov. Cruce said he
had not issued commission to Gill
as a new board member, neither had
he intimation that the place would
not be accepted. OF course, If Gill
takes the Tahlequah place, which
pays s2,7O0 per year, the governor
says that action would eliminate him
from the new educational board. The

On Governors Blacklist.

When w. +. Gill of Pawhuska threw
down Governor Cruce for State Su-
perintendent R.H.Wilson by accepting
from the latter the pres dency of the
Tahlequah state normal school, 1t is
believed that he forever blacklisted
himself with the Cruce administra-
ton
The fact that he seized on the
TahleQuah job without first notifying
the governor that he could not fl
the board of education berth that
he had already accepted makes his
predicament all tht more serious.
Superintendent Wilson's power to
appoint the president of a normal
school extends only over the time
when the board of education is not
in session, and Gil's commission
would have to be confirmed by the
board in order to become effective
He could hardly expect the board
of education which Governor Cruce
is now assembling, to confirm him,
but he might hope to retain his job,
should Scott Glen, Frank Hayes and
State Treasurer Robert Dunlop sue
ceed in retaining their places on the
board These three men were re-
moved by Governor Cruce on the
ground that they had been guilty of
conduct unbecoming members of that
board.
Those who discussed the Gill ap-
pointment in state house circles Tues
day characterized it as smooth work
on the part of Wilson, and blunder
by the Pawhuska man.
There is a meeting of the state
board of education scheduled for Oc-
tober 8, before which time, the new
members of the board will be named.

Appeal Indian Land Case.

Z. T. Bottoms has appealed to the
supreme court from the judgment of
the district court of Garvin county,
setting aside the deed given to him
| by Clara Neukirchner for her allot-
ment near Paoli.
The case in the lower court was
brought by Mrs. Neukirchner, who is
an intermarritd ChoCtaw citizen. She
alleged that J. b. Dickerson Of Nc
Alester came to her at time when
her citizenship rights had not been
fully determined and wanted to Sc
lect as her allotment certain lands
which he would designate, agreeing to
buy the surplus for 5000 If she would
do 30.
She agreed and received S75 in ad-
vance. When the deed to Bottoms
was executed, he gave here only $425
instead of the 1926 she had expected.
She claims that she was charged $40O
for locating her on the allotment,
while Bottoms claims that 1t was for
Improvements which had been placed
on the land.
Attorneys for Bottoms allege that
the proceedings when Judgment was
rendered were highly irregular,
court being held by Judge Mcmillan
in a hotel at Sulphur, and that while
the Judgment of record was dated No
vember IS, 1908, the proceedings were
really held on January 2S. 1909, and
that the order was not filed until Feb
ruary 5, 1909. They also object to an
arrangement by which Henry NJ. Carr
