NOTICE.


Several people have asked me about
the Ford Tractor that is now being
demonstrated at the Normal Short
Course. This tractor is not a product
of the Henry Ford Motor Tractor Co.
It is an altogether different breed OF
cats. The Ford Motor Co. will put out
their tractors some time next summer
and they will be handled in the regular
way by the Ford agents.
JOHN O'LAUGHLIN.
The attack made by John O'Loughlin
on The Ford Tractor Co.'S. tractor of
Mimi, for which we have the agency
IN this county, is another one Of his
great imaginations and should be treat
ed as such, he is making 1t hobby to
knock on everything that he does not
sell. We further wish to state that we
have not at any time advertised it as
Henry Ford's, because we think this
concern has something better than even
this Ford Auto Co.
We are willing to put it up against
anything now on the market at the
same price; although it does not belong
to the same breed of cats" that he
does, the Company stands behind it with
as good guarantee as John O'Laugh-
lin has for any of his tractors.
1t is more powerful, built stronger
It has been demonstrated at different
times and was pronounced a success by
some of the best farmers and business
men of this County.
Come and inspect it, we shall only be
pleased to show you the good qualities
it has FIN. DREnING Co.

SOME THINGS
and OTHER THINGS
When man loses his sentimentality
he is worth but little to society.

A man is making daily record.
But when mans past record has been
bad it is sure to get in his way in the
run of a life time. People have long
memories when it comes to registering
human weaknesses, and one dominating
weakness will oft times out-balance a
thousand noble traits.

The government is talking real saucy
to Austria, but pussy-footed for fifteen
months while talking to Germany. 1t
is just case of delayed craftsmanship.

considerable source Of revenue to lho oklahoma public school iund
 The Deparimont ol ihe Interior in making lts report Co tho public lands committee on the Wickersham bill, has reported adversely on thig DOT ton It wants title to the mineral lands retained in the United states govornmont and IS not wiling that tho Territory should have any part ol them.
 Representative Lonroot. of Wiscon. sin, a vigorous proponent of Che feder' al landlord Idea In dealing with Che public domain. also is making 9 agh. on this section as well an on other sections. The Lenroot light is making Ean impressions
 Hence Mir Wickersham has lndlcat' cd that he will accept Q compromise which will give the mineral land in sections 16 and 36 to Che Territory but permit them to be leased by tho foder- al government provided the revenues therelrom flow into the Territory's school fund Mr. Denroot is disposed to agree to this
 The Department of the Interior ln its report suggested tho entire elimination of mineral bearing sections % and S6i permitting the Territory to select lands in lieu thereof.
 Opposition is made by the Depart ment also to chat portion of the Wick. ersham bin which would grant "sec. ton 33 In each township in tho Tan ana watershed" to the Territorial agri. cultural college and school of mines. It regards tho provision as entirely too broad and sweeping. This matter is now being fought out in the commit tee.
 Out of all this, though perhaps not at the present session, Is to come leg. islation on which will be based the educational system Of the Territory and future State.

s.ooo.ooo meN-s1ooo,ooo.ooo.

Five months of war haze made Q record or losses in material and men surpassing that of years Of struggle in any. previous conflict
 The direct money cost Is set at $7. OOO0OO,0OO. Destruction damage In Belgium alone has been put at S1,000,- OOOOOO It is as great in Northern France but relatively less in the East The Germans will not rage Lodz, 9 German town by ownership, from poll cy the Russians try to spare Galicia. Ruin is more complete in East Prus- sin and Seryia but the population is sparse. The total propertly loss may be half as great as the direct money cost The loss by wreckage of trade and industry is Impossible even to guess at
 But shocking beyond all compari- son is the wasted life and health of the most vigorous men of Europe. Less accuracy is hcre possible. Ali figures are in arrears The total es- innate of S6.00OOOO IS as fair as any
 Six million men. How many are dead? The per cent of killed in the British lists is about 10. It was l7 in South Africa the Beers are dead shots. owing to frontal charges and desperate haste, it is perhaps as high among the Germans. A larger pro portion of prisoners may make the per cent. of dead Russians and Aus trians less than 15. Close to a mil lion men have surely fallen.
 What triumphs of conquest or trade advantage can statesmen use to cover the policies that have made possible such devastation.-( (New York World)

DELEGATE AFTER
 SCHOOL LANDS

(Ashmun Brown in Seattle P.-I.)
 WASHINGTON. Jan. 10.-Since the opening Of the present session of Com | gress Delegate James Wickersham has resumed his campaign, begun in years { past to secure a grant of land for the common schools Of Alaska. This Is I part Of his general purpose of creating a really adequate school system in the ! Territory. but for the present he has concentrated on the matter of the grant
 Early in Che present month he in- troduced a new bin on the subject, a modification of those he introduced last year. and already he has had a hearing before the committee on pub lie lands of the House on the measure, and has felt the force of the opposi- ton that is being mustered against it
 The new bill grants to the territory sections 16 and S6 in each township for the support of the common schools provides that no part Of the grant shall ever be sold. but shall be held until twenty years after the state is organized. the lands to be leased on ten.year leases in tho meantime.
 1t also grants section 35 in each township in the Panama valley water shed for the support of an agricultural college and school of mines to be maintained on the four sections on which the experiment. station is now located near Fairbanks, which four sections are expressly granted to the Territory for the purpose. A universi. ty commission to recommend plan for creating the college and school of mines is created by the act to include the Governor, the Delegate in Con. gress from Alaska land a third per son connected with the Department of Agriculture. to be appointed by the Secretary Of Agriculture"
 The bin proposes to grant the sec tons 16 and S6 whether they contain mineral or not, but contains the pro yiso that those of them that are yalu- able for mineral including gas or oil, shall not be sold without the afirma- tive consent Of Congress-"
 In other words, the bill proposes to let the Territory conduct its own sys. tenn of both land and mineral leases.
 In the acts which granted school sections to Washington and other Western States that came into the Union at about the same time the gov ernment expressly held out such sec. tions 16 and 36 as might be found to contain mineral, retaining them in the public domain. but giving the States right to select other lands in lieu there of. However, in the case of Oklahoma, more recently admitted, the govern ment made no such reservation and let the new State take mineral and all. Lenses on State owned oil lands in Ok lahoma, thus acquired, are already

American reads very thoroughly the things which interest him and refuses to read those things which do not, no matter what the headlines may be.
 The Senator and Mir. Gardner were discussing the question recently, and Mir Lodge proved to be very tenac- ious of his opinion.
 "You read the newspapers, don't you?" asked Gardner
 Certainly" replied Senator Lodge
 DO you read them thoroughly?"
 q believe l do."
 Did you ever hear of Connie Mack" inquired Gardner
 Connie Mack?" repeated Lodge.
 "Yoo mean Norman Mack. don't you?g
 q do not, mean conunie Mack
 q do not think ever heard of him, ' replied Lodge, after period of think ing.
 And stm you assert that you read the newspapers thoroughly" remark ed Gardner
 But who is Connie Mack" inquir- cd the Senator.
 He is a person" declared Gardner, impressively who is probably better known to the several millions of the American citizens than Henry Cabot Lodge

Terry came in on the run. as he al- days did, with his head down a bit, and corbett, wonderfully hard hit ter with his left, caught Terry on the neck back of the ear and Terry turned a complete circle in the mir before he brought up with crash on the floor. Terry was done. He got up on one knee and when he smiled we thought he was only taking advantage of the rest When the toll went on until he had been countc,l out we realized then that he was almost completely out even though he was kneellng.
