PUBLIC BARRED
 FROM OAKLAWN
CROWDS OF ENTHUSIASTS INTER. FIBRE WITH HANDLING OF
 HORSES AT PARK.
Management Prohibits Visitors Until the Opening Date of the
 Exhibition.

It is generally the oyer-curious and too-inquisitiye persons who spoil a good thing, and the exercising of the aforementioned characteristics by some who visited Oaklawn park yes terday to see the horses entered in the coming horse show, which will be given there March to 9, had caused an edict to go forth from the off cials of the Horse Show association at the request of the exhibitors, which effectively bars any one not connect ed with this great equine and social event from entrance to the grounds until the gates are thrown open for the exposition proper
 The announcement that the horses already sent to this city, the entries of Miss Lula Long of Kansas City, Mir and Mrs. O. J. Mooers of Colum- bia, Mo, and the Hook and ', ood stable of Paris, Mo, are being exer- cised daily at the park, naturany proved magnet that drew hundreds to the state fair grounds Now, the respective exhibitors are the best fellows in the world, but there is sudh a thing as too much being too much Yesterday there were sev. eral hundred persons from this city looking the prize-winning steeds over, and the crowd soon became much too persistent sand curious for comfort.
 Announcement was made at the of flee of the Horse Show association, in the Business Mems league, yes terday, that the Buchanan stables would arrive in this city, together with the horses entered by Matt Co hen of Kentucky, the latter part Of the week A great deal of interest is being manifested in the latter entry, not alone from the fact that the blue grass state is noted for its fine horses. but for the additional reason that this stable is conceded by horse show judges to contain some of the most costly and beautiful steeds in the United States.
 Mrs. Julius Walsh of St. Louis, who is shipping S6 horses to Hot Springs for this event, has written that she expects to have her pets here no lat CT than Monday With this consign- ment of precious freight will also come carload of new equipages, which this lady, who is the wife of the we'll known multi-millionaire has recently ordered from New YorR, and which will be shown here for the first time at any horse show. One can get an idea of the quality of the stock to say nothing of quality, when sucn representative persons as those send rlg ilcrses here, take speeia! inteT- est in this equine exposition. It con firms the prediction that Hot Dprings will have the greatest horse show that this country has ever seen.
 The second auction of private boxes for the horse show will be held al the Eastman hotel Friday night As was the case at the Arlington, Harry H. Myers, superintendent of the gov ernment reservation, will auction the boxes off. Four were disposed of in this manner at the Arlington last week, and interest in this event has increased greatly.

Why SalveS Can't Cure Eczema

Since the old-fashioned theory of cur ing eczema through the blood has been glven up by scientists, many different saives have been tried for skin diseases. But it has been found that these salves only. clog the pores and cannot penetrate te the inner skin below the epiGermis where the eczema germs are lodged.
 This--the quality of penetrating- probably explains the tremendous suc- cess of the we'll known liquid eczema remedy, oil of wintergreen. thymol. gly- cerine, etc, as compounded in DDD Prescription.

THE MAILS
TO CARRY BOOZE
The Post Office as Booze Distribut-
ing System Under a Parcels
Post Law.

| Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 20-The pas
sage of the parcels post bill may reyo-
lutionize the distribution of liquor and
particularly of whiskey in Oklahoma.
1--WE have hard enough time fighting
the bootleggers, express and railroad
companies" said postofiice official
Monday" but now the government,
through the parcels post, comes in and
proves itself first aid to the injured
and knocks our good work sky high" !"
The certainty of a parcels post bill
at this session of congress has opened
up a wide field for the whiskey COM
panies, and with the almost certainty
of escaping detection they are making
hay while the sun shines.
! 1t has been brought to the atten-
tion of the postoffice department that
the whiskey men have figured on the
parcels post system as their great
asset in prohibition territory, and they
figure that it will no longer be neces-
sary for the farmer to come to town
to secure his contraband goods, The
whiskey people are flooding Oklahoma
with travelling men who are taking or
ders for whiskey, the same to be de-
livered by the U. s. government, under
the parcels post system. Under the
new law packages weighing as high as
ten pounds can be carried an dthe or
ldinary man can get pretty well stew
ed with ten pounds of whiskey. The
men taking the orders give good guar
antees and they simply notify the pros
lpective customer where to mail the
cash, either Chicago, st. Louis or Kan
sas City, and the booze will follow by
return mail 1t means increased work

/ The postoffice inspectors are at
work in Muskogee today following the
trail of the whiskey men, and they
are anticipating a lively campaign. As
the whiskey sent by mail does not
have to be labeled or billed the inspec
tors are working at a great disad
lyantage.

SENATE FAvORS
DISTRICT AGENTS
Senate Would Not Agree to Cutting
Of the Oklahoma District
Agents.

Washington, Aug. t9.-Friends of
the Oklahoma Indians triumphed in
the senate today when the senate re-
fused to accept the conference report
on the Indian appropriation bill The
bill was sent back to the conference
committee and Senator Curtis of Kan
sas was appointed to succeed Senator
Gamble of South Dakota as the SEN
ate member of the conference commit
tee. Senator Curtis is warm advo-
cate of the district Indian agents.
The chief reason for sending the bill
back to conference was that the con-
ferees had agreed to strike out the
senate amendment providing 100000
for paying the expenses and salaries
of the eighteen district Indian agents
in Oklahoma.
Senator Curtis today continued his
warm appeal in favor of retaining the
district agents. He started the de-
bate on the floor of the senate last
Saturday. It is hardly believed the
senate will agree to any bill not pro-
viding for the continuance of the dis
trict agents and the next report from
the conference committee is expected
to allow the senate amendment to be
enacted into law.
The amendment in the Indian bill,
appropriating 100000 for the trans
fer Of the 256 Apache prisoners of
war from Fort Sill, Okla, to New
Mexico, brought out bitter opposition
from the senators from New Mexico
and Arizona, who declared that out
breaks between the white settlers in
New Mexico and the Indians would
follow the transfer

SHOT AND KILLED
FROM AMBUSH

Bartlesville, Okla, Aug. 19.-Chet
Graham shot and killed Oscar Sears
from ambush across the Osa-e county
line Saturday. Sears and his wife
were driving overland to Caney, Kans..
and had been out Of Bartlesville about
four hours when the killing occurred.
Sears was standing up about the
middle of the wagon and his wife was
doing the driving when, SO states Mrs.
Sears, Graham fired on her husband
from ambush, hitting him over the
heart with number of buck shot
Sears at once picked up his WiDches-
ter and fired at his enemy but just as
the gun went off he fell out of the
wagon dead, and Graham disappeared.
Mrs. Sears at once drove to the
nearest farm house for help to get the
dead man in the wagon. She had to
drive three miles before she found
anybody, and when they returned no
trace of Graham could be found.
Sheriff Fears Of Usage county IS
now hunting for Graham.

DEMOCRAT LEADERS
WELL SATISFIED

New York, Aug 20.-vHeretofore the
leaders of the national political cam
paigns have been we'll satisfied il their
organizations were in good running
order by the first or second week in
September.
In the remarkable campaign that is
now before the American voters there
is one incident that the old line poli-
ticians are marveling over and that
is the condition of the national demo-
cratic committee.
For more than a week on the fourth
and fifth floors of the iffice building
at 200 Fifth Avenue, the national DEM
ocratic committee has been playing
in mid-season form. The bureau has
been organized and manned in each
detail. The corps of employees have
fallen into their respective duties like
old timers.
The average voter who is being APP
pealed to, perhaps does not realize
the vast amount of work required to
educate him to the views Of the re-
spectiye leaders.
If there is anything in a flying start,
Wilson and Marshall have certainly
secured that start.
The republican papers of New York
City have commented daily on the
scenes of activity around democratic
headquarters and the deathlike si-
lence that prevades at republican and
progressive headquarters. But the
Roosevelt headquarters are showing
more activity than the Taft headquar-
ters, but it must be remembered that
the Bull Moosers" are trying to or
ganize a new party and have been
unable to launch their campaign plans.
The temporary illness of Chairman
w. F. McCombs might have caused
slackening up in the activity of the
w lloOn IOlSSS uuuci OlulndAJ ClANuhA-
stances but this remarkable young
man had looked far ahead and the
bureau chiefs have gone rapidly ahead
perfecting their various details
Vice Chairman w. S. McAdoo has
taken up the duties of Chairman Me-
Combs and viii fulfill them for the
next week, as Chairman McCombs has
been ordered to take a complete rest.
His illness was brought about much
by the pre-convention contest and
then he insisted on giving all his time
to the completing of the organization
details at national headquarters.
While democratic victory is lin the
air. none of the various leaders is
taking anything for granted They
are organizing and planning to contest

every state, every congressional dis
trict, every township.
Senator T. P. Gore OF Oklahoma
slowly rocks back and forth in his
rocking chair, quietly giving his or.
ders on organization to a score Of able
assistants. The blind senator has a
cheering word and smile, or word
of advice, for everyone
Henry Morganthau, chairman Of the
finance committee, and Treasurer
Rolla Wells, have secured each depart
ment for any false movements, until
they have the headquarters organized
on thorough business basis.
The quick start Of the Wilson and
Marshall forces has resulted in a sur
prisingly large number of small con-
tributors to the campaign fund. Never
in the history of the party have the
contributors displayed greater will
ingness and enthusiasm than in the
present campaign. Contributions as a
rule are small, varying from one dol
lar up, but they are nevertheless well
come to Treasurer Wells.
Down at Sea Girt, Governor Wilson
is daily meeting dozens of delegations
and hundreds Of visitors who are
promising him their loyal support. His
preliminary speeches Of the campaign
show his clear grasp Of the vital ques-
tions before the voters
1T is not a question of winning now
or ever" said Josephus Daniels, chair
man of the publicity bureau, but 1t is
question of how large and how inn
pressive our victory will be. And here
many people say that the democrats
have better chance this time. We
know that We also know we are
going to win. And we also think that
we have surprise for the republi-
cans and Bull Mosers' in demonstrate
ing that not a slight majority, but an
Overwhelming number of people favor

MuskoeEE HITS LOAN SHARKS.
District Judge and Prosecutor Comes
to Rescue of Victims.

Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 49, District
Judge r. c. Allen and County Attor-
ney Maloney have started an open
warfare on loan sharks and salary loan
men. Judge Allen issued statement
inviting all victims to make complaint
to him and advised them to cease pay
ing interest until their case is inyesti-
gated. Maloney will prosecute all
cases free. Today hundreds of people
went to Judge Aliens chambers and
told their stories. The county attor-
ney is getting evidence that will be
placed before the September grand
jury.

same bang and "cAug" of the steel
met their ears, and the place was as
silent as the grave.
Stand away" SAID Gilmore, who
swung about 200 pounds of weight be-
hind the seldge, and put it against the
barricade. The door is nearly a foot
thick, cleated, loaded, and what they
call subssoiled. The sledge came back
like it was SO much rubber. In due
time the door was opened and the man
behind asked what it was all about.
In the party went, but there was not
a thing in sight. An open window
told where the crowd went, and for all
the raiders knew, took the plant
with them. AS a diversion, the party
left the building by the rear stairs,
hoping to throw the waiting crowd off
the scent. 1t had that effect until the
next joint was reached, and then fully
500 collected to watch the result. BY
the time the raiders reached the third
station the door was politely opened
and free rein was given by the at
tendant.

CIRCUS RATE TOO CHEAP.
Corporation ccmn1ission Raises the
Tariff on Ringing Brothers!

Oklahoma City, Aug. 1s.-The cor
Doration commission today refused
the Frisco railroad permission to trans.
port Ringing Brothers circus Of
eighty-two cars, from Oklahoma City
TO Tulsa during the month of Septem-
ber for $3.50, and has notified the rail
road company that it will not approve
any charge of less than 81 500 The
refusal is based on the fact that from
figures submitted by the railroad COM
panies in various rate hearings at the
lowest rate possible the movement
would result in an actual loss to the
railroads.
The commission takes the position
that if this business is handled at IA
loss, some other class of traffic win

The comfy of the trade compels
friendly notice when raid begins,
so the evidence can be gotten away
with This was evident to the raiders
when they came to The third joint,
and so manifested in the atmosphere
at stops four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine and ten. At stop eight a man
joked his head out of the door, and
said there is nothing doin," but the
raiders went in, and made up their
mind they would look for the plant. .
One stout looking door was in the
rear, and Gilmore suggested they try
their luck on this one. The sledge
made little impression on the timbers
and with no effect ON moving the
mass. The brick wall furnished bet
ter inducement, so a well directed
blow or two there, knocked hole big
enough to crawl through. The raid
!, ers were rewarded by finding two
tubs filled with cracked ice, whiskey

ed. At the next stop there was the
same atmosphere of inertia, only there
had been. something doing a short
time before. The liquor glasses were
loud" from the last drink, the rag
that served as dolly for the inmpro
