Gentlemen: The Democrats Of our
proud realm are very much chagrined
and positively indignant that three
Oklahomans OF any vicinity or politi-
cal party-even the socialist-would
diyerge SO far from the Oklahoma
plan as to stoop to strikel Shame,
shame, on you Where in the name
Of all that if like Oklahoma were your

Do you not know that you have now
laid yourselves open to attack BY any
lubberly plug Of a thug in that con
vention, since you have lowered your
! selves to the level Of pugilists?
DO you not know that 1t would have
been just as easy, without loss of time
to have left our commonwealth three
Republicans less, and, too. with less
exertion? And would you not thus
have enhanced the chances Of oul
Democratic candidate for election ana
reelection. Truly noble thing fol
you to do in behalf of our great stat,
and the nation as we'll
Because you gentlemen so SELFISH,
and unpatriotieally ignored all Of thl
valuable and honorable considerations
and thereby DETAINED our state b.

WILL HAVE BIG CELEBRATION
WHEN WEDNESDAY OF NEXT.
WEEK GETS HERE IN ADDITION.
TO XMAS.

Harry O'Neil, n of the best known
of the pioneers of this city and state,

nesday and it won't have all to do with
Christmas. Forty-one years ago Dec.
25, MI. O'Neil arrived in Fargo to
make this his home and he has been
living here ever since, so that he has
a double cause for rejoicing and hav-
ing a good time. When he came here
n could almost count the number of
houses in the place on his fingers. Mr..
GiNeil had great faith in Fargo. He
believed in her possibilities and he
wasn't fooled any. He went to work
with a vim and as the town grew he
grew with it. He prospered, acquir-
ed property and a now sit down and
enjoy life without any bother for the
morrow.
Il always believed in Fargo" said
he to The Forum this morning. Il al
ways felt it in my bones that we have
the biggest kind of a town here and
you can just bet l wasn't fooled any,
There are not a great many of us
living here who were here at that
time, but l guess the ones who are
| are all right we'll and glad they stay
ed, l have seen and rejoiced in the
| growth of the town and have had som
little part myself in its development
and l want to live to see it to be twice
as big as it is now" n in this HI
has hundreds of friends in the city
who feel the same "a
His friends over the state and city
will feel like extending their congrat-
ulations to him on this anniversary. :
He is hale and hearty, a little oldei
than he was forty-one years ago, but
he has. just as youthful a spirit and
as good a heart.

PARCELS POST

1T GOES INTO EFFECT IN A FEW

The parcels post will become q fact

one might be led to think, for there
will, be plenty .of--persons- still astir

New Years day is an especially SER

ager in the kitchen, and If she can get
the table provisions the same day that
they are to be eaten, she will. And
this she can do beginning Jan. ], and
doubtless will do, land that is why
there will be many, many farmers at
their. various postoffices the day the
parcels post is established.
Right now the average housewife
knows few places, If any, where she
can obtain the things she wants for
her table, except at the recognized
markets. In the next two weeks one
can expect to see h farmer appre-
ciate the advantages of advertis-
ing, and a statement of his wares will
probably become a regular feature of
newspapers and the various adver-
Using mediums. Then the house
wife can order her produce through

The government has specified the
various kinds of containers, which
must protect articles hat will be
sent via parcels post, but happily
leaves their choice to their sender. He
may construct them or buy them as he
pleases. Only they must be secure,
| Special reference is made as to the
shipment of eggs If their intended
distance is short they may be sent in
a basket, if so wrapped as lot to

the distance is great, each egg must
be separately wrapped before being

Dear Sir-Please change my address to
the Gazette from Baskin, La, TO Lub-
book, Texas. have been out here since
first of May, and here ION the Grand
Plains) since the first of June. Have de-
cided TO camp here. This is in the unde-
veloped part Of the State, although it is
rapidly coming into its own. This is In
the Pan Handle section and is as level
apparently as the top of your table, COM
prising an area approximately about the
size Of the State of Mississippi. Railroads
being the greatest developers Of any coun-
try, the plains viii soon have any num-
Der Of roads, when this win be the most
beautiful part Of the State Of Texas, or
any other State for that matter.
This is not in the extreme dry dry lat
iiude Of the State, a. / have seen two
hard rains in the past two weeks, and
expect you are needing Is much now.
Anything can be grown here, ,-all fruits,
vegetables, and other farm products, in
cluding cotton and cereals. This part oi
the plains is $500 feet above sea level and
the climate is delightful. One needs COW
ering every night, 20 you see we can
sleep like child. Lots of water can be
had at from 40 to 20 feet. People ars
prosperous here.
This is the natural home Of the auto
mobile and nearly every one has car Of
some kind.
This is town Of 1000 population and
four years ago it only boasted 400. The
Santa Fe came into this place last year.
and there are now building into this
place two more roads, and this viii oi
course boom the town. There are no ne
groes here.
Farmers can work from 70 to 200 acres
Of land per family, using improved i'm
pliments. All improvements in this coun-
try are of the most permanent and sub
stantial kind. Churches, schools and al
endeayers for advancement of religion
and education meet with the greatest en-
couragement. This place, Lubbock, con-
tains the best and finest Masonic Hall in
the State, not excepting Dallas. 1t is the
grandest have ever entered.
