WENTN-FINE years ago Okla

of prairie dog holes and a horizon

Thirteen years ago Oklahoma City had
10000 inhabitants ana another thousand

Three years ago Oklahoma City had
$1,000 citizens, was the metropolis of
500 square miles OF Z. S. territory, had
just swiped the state capital from Gu

from s to a stories in height and had
broken all L. s. percentage records, but

Oklahoma City increased $50 percent
in 10 years. Milwaukee beat this once.
But that was long ago.
Oklahoma City was founded and be-
come a flourishing community one al

it didn't pan out two citizens per square

on the border of Oklahoma and that

for some time The building Is now
occupied by the Commonwealth Shoe
and Leather Company of Whitman,
Mass, which Is a tenant at will, paying
an annual rental of $1,000 per year.
The fact that they are now resuming
operation, after shutdown of sever
al months, is taken to indicate that
Skowhegan factory will have its pro-
portion of the company's business in
the immediate future.
Officers of the Skowhegan Manufac-

ing, are as follows: President, l.. w.

Sheriff Frank Thompson has lately
appointed Walter II. Maynard as the
new deputy sheriff at lockwood. In
politics Mr.. Maynard Is a Democrat,
and has taken the office to which he
has been appointed to enforce the law.
Mr.. Maynard has spent some time in
New York but has been at lockwood
off and on for some time as a guide,
engineer and farmer. Last spring he
moved his family to lockwood and
now owns three farms there on Moose
River, which gives him a mile of
shortage. That Mr. Maynards life has
not been all pleasure since he went to
lockwood is true from the fact that
he has had three barns burned dur
ing his stay there. Since his appoint
ment as deputy, this new official as
heard of several threats that have
come his way If he didn't leave the rum
sellers alone, but Mr.. Maynard ex-
presses himself as having no fears and
