WOODROW WILSON
IS FAVOR|TE
So Says Western Manager Owen, Who
Has Just Returned From a
Roundup.

Muskogee, Okla, April 26.-"The
preponderance of sentiment among
the democrats of the country is for
Woodrow Wilson. said Judge Thomas
II. Owen. who returned from the east
last night for few days visit at home.
As Wilson's western campaign man
ager. Judge Owen has kept in close
touch with the conditions throughout
the country and he gives his opinion
based. as it is. not only upon reports
coming to Wilson headquarters, but
upon personal investigation. Although
not charging that Taft interests are
lending their assistance to the Clark
movement, believing that Clark can
be more easily defeated than Wilson,
Judge Owen believes that the inter.
ests desire Clark's nomination and
that Taft men are lending their assist
ance to the Clark movement"
| have spent a little over seven
weeks working in the interest of Gov
ernor Wilson and am thoroughly con-
vinced that the sentiment of the coun-
try is for him." Judge Owen said.
Governor Harmon's recent speech be-
fore the Ohio constitutional convention
eliminated him As a presidential pos
sibility, and although Indiana's dele
gates are instructed for Governor Mar
SHALL the majority of them are for
Wilson.
Interests opposed to Governor VIII
son apparently have an agreement to
the effect that in states where Speaker
Clark has developed more strength
than either Harmon or Oscar Under
wood, the opposition is to line up for
Clark. In Nebraska for instance, the
Clark forces made no effort to show
their strength until it was clearly
shown that Wilson could carry the
state over Harmon Then the Clark
and Wilson forces divided the pro-
gressive vote and prevented Wilson
from carrying the state.
Similar tactics have been adopted
in Wisconsin where Governor Wilson
got "a out of 26 delegates, and in Penn
sylvant1. where Governor Wilson got
the entire delegation.
Speaker Clark is strong in the mid
die west, but in the New England
states, outside of Massachusetts, he is
not considered seriously In fact, the
country over, Wilson is looked upon
as the only strong presidential possi-
bility.'
Judge owen will return to New York
in about week

Cherokee Public Buildings Are Ap-
praised.

praised.
Tahlequah, Okla, April 27-Chero-
kee county has never agitated the ques-
ton OF the building OF a court house
because of the fact that the capitol
building and square are located in the
very heart of the city anc well cal
culated to be used as court house.
1t has since its erection been used for
the transaction OF the public business
of the Cherokee nation and stands as
a monument to Cherokee thrift and
.progressiveness and it is but meet that
it shouldfi when disposed of by the
government for the tribe, be continued
as the place for the transaction Of
public affairs. For this reason It has
been the general concensus Of opinion
that bonds would be issued and the
Capitol building and Jail be purchased
for county purposes and officials have
been waiting for appraisement to be
made which has now been done.
Word was received this morning
from ], George Wright, commissioner
to the Five Civilized Tribes. that the
value fixed by the appraisers on the
Capitol building and grounds at $40,-
900; jail $4,000 and the Advocate prop
erty at $4,000. It is now possible for
the board Of commissioners to procure
necessary county buildings as rents
that are now required to be paid far
exceeds the interest it will be neces-
sary to pay on the bonds issued for
/ the purchase therof.

teams have added another year to
their experience. which with consolida-

A Preachers View.

Howard, Kans., the county seat Of
Elk county. is fine little city, situat-
ed in the center of rich farming com
munity. This town has two mail
trains on each week day. Some of
the progressive citizens circulated a
petition recently, asking the Santa Fe
railroad to put on Sunday mail train.
The preachers of the town are fight.
ing the project. One enthusiastic
preacher In his sermon last Sunday,
told his congregation that, The men
in Howard might just as well sign a
petition to locate a bawdy house in
Howard as to sign for a Sunday train. .
What curious tastes some preachers
have? We will acknowledge that for
our part, we would prefer the Sunday
mail train. But we will be generous,
and own up that we are over sixty
years of age, and maybe if we We're
younger we might agree with the
preacher
