A petition bearing tue signatures
of over 100 people of Yeriugton and
various ranchers in the Walker Riv-
er country, asking that the county
assist them in road improvements,
was presented 1t is proposed by
the petitioners to r.ake new six
mile diversion in the Yerrington-
Aurora road beginning at about half
mile beyond the bridge at Nor
gan's aud coming out at the Nine
Mile Ranch A subscription list, ON
which the people of Yerington and
East Walker had pledged themselves
to expend something over $l3O0, in
cash and labor, was presented by Mr..
BoerIin, and the same was ordered
filed. Mr. Metzger, Superintendent
of the Aurora Consolidated property,
has stated to county officials that he
would be willing to give what assist
ance he cou d in building the cutoff,
with the understanding that tie
county would make some much
needed alterations and improvements
on the Thorne-Aurora road, which
he recognizes as being the main out
lei Oi Aurora, and Commissioner
Boerlin of Aurora was delegated
to request the Aurora Company to
have their engineers make the ne
cessary surveys for the Devils Gate
cat off No further action was taken
by the board but it is probable that
when the petitioners have expended
the amount subscribed the work of
completing the cutoff will be done
by the county.
Owing to the action of the Legis-
lature in abolishing merchandise
licenses and in reducing the time for
the redemption of the proposed bond
issue from 90 to 5 years. it was evil
dent that the tax rate of 50. 5S which
had been fixed at previous meeting
was in need of revision and it was
ordered that the rate for the year be
$2,75, and the annual budget was
amended TO conform with the
change. The special sheep tax is 80
cents on each 800 valuation.
On petition of j. II. Malloy, lot 4
block 33, county property ia Raw
hide was ordered sold.
Board adjourned until May ), 1915.

LARGE NUMBER OF IMPORTANT MATTERS AcTE D ON BY
THE BOARD AT LAST MEETING

The County Commissioners met in
regular session last Monday, present
Messrs. Miller, Boerin, and Red
j, H. Walsh appeared and explain
ed TO the Board the necessity of road
repairs between Luning and the
mining camps of New York canyon.
/ Mr., Walsh stated that under exist.
ing conditions the ore from the camp
could not be shipped at IL profit and
stated that the residents of the dis
trict would expend $3.50, and asked
the Board To subscribe an equal
amount. The Commissioners agreed
to eXpend the amount asked. pro-
vided that the petitioners furnish
satisfactory proof that they had
spent an equal amount.
f. Powelson of Belellle presented
petition which was signed by over
80 citizens of that place, and which
stated that Mr.. Powelson's saloon
is not disorderly, and that to revoke
his license as was petitioned at the
last meeting, would work an unjust
hardship on him.
Powelsons application for re-
newal of his license was filed and the

the Oakland Investment Company

County ct al. This case is an inter
estlng one, involving the ownership
Of mining property in Aurora which
which is valued at from $25, 900 10
500, 600.
This property originally consisted
of three fractional mining claims
which according to the plaintitfs
were consolidated into one called the
Silver Lining Consolidated Mining
Company on which an U. 5. patent
WAS gran ted to the Oakland Invest
ment Company. AT the time Of
issuing of the patent no change
was made in the county records and
the claim was assessed as three sep
arate patented claims. taxes on two
Of which were allowed TO 90 delin
quent by the company, and were sold
at public auction and bought in by
the county.
1t is now thought probable that
the mistake was made by the county
officials OF the early days. The mat
ter will be decided at the next ses-
sion of the district court
b. f. Edwards appeared in person
and offered to purct ase the complete
issue of the county high school bonds

condition that he deposit $500 with

The Board proceeded to count the
funds in the hands af the Treasurer,
and found the same to be correct.

CABINETEERS.

Carpet baggers have heretofore al
ways been supposed TO represent per-
sons who have been sent 20 Oklahoma
by the federal authorities for the sole
and only purpose OF impressing upon
the citizens Of this country tho
bureaucracy OF Washington. Because
Of Indian lands and governmental
supervision, Oklahoma has more than
once been made the arena for the ex-
hibition Of departmental autocracy.
When the Democratic administra-
ton started doing business. we hailed
with much anticipation what had been
promised as relief and true return to
Jeffersonian simplicity In the handling
Of things governmental. Instead Of
Indian commissioners we were 10 be

While it was rather a tough question

the expected raise has been forgotten.

to be a legacy with the Democratic

THE HOLLOW HALO.

For the past two years it has been
very noticeable that in Washington
there has been a very stylish fashion
OF nd-hammered halos being worn
by certain departmental and cabinet
officials. Aladdin had his lamp,
Ramayana his crystal, but the hand
hammered halo Is strictly a device
appearing during the past two years,
This nifty little sky-piece is as
greatly priced as the Iron Cross Of the
Kaiser and Is not nearly so harsh nor
rude The guide book and rules Of
instruction and inspiration give much
service 10 the vexed and perplcxed
mind squatting In the shadow Of the
halo. The book is alphabetically ar
ranged and under the letter "C' is
found the word California" Cwhere
all honest oil producers live together
with Sir knight Speuacy) under "G"
IS found the word "grapo-juice' and
so on to the end The book Of in
struction also tells that the halo when
obtaining dun look can be very
easily polished by the use Of an emul-
sion formed boy the use Of magic words
and sentences Of advice For instance
we have rule one: When in doubt
frightened into speechlessness, over
come by heat, or after falling out Of
four-story window, always on re
covering say Down with King Alcho-
hol" Its always trump card and Is
popular with the ladies' This eX-
preston and others can be attached
very nicely by a dovc-tailed arrange
ment to the halo roper and will give
Chasticleer effect.
To the inspired ones who wear the
halos all wisdom Is given. In fact
everything is handled in an esoteric
manner For instance should some
fool citizen ask about n matter con-
cernlng his business affairs, he is
given a card with number attached
resembling barber-shop turn coupon,

latest government report on Myself

same author. II one Is not Interested
I'm esoterlcs or automatic halos, 1t will
not be well to visit Washington on In
dian Affairs until about two years
from date. II would take about that
period Of time TO get the right atmos-
phere and after that time one could
hardly expect to have any further op-
portunity Of using it.

The Renter.

II every cotton grower in the South
owned his own farm, and If he would
bend his energies to growing other
grasses Of various kinds and would go
into the live stock business, he would
render a service not merely to himself
but to the entire country. For the
country is short of meat, and the
live stock which must furnish the
meat 1t is short on corn TO feed them.
The unfortunate thing Is that the av-
erage cotton grower Of the south does
not own his land. He is dependent on
his landlord; the landlord is depend
ent on the cotton broker; and now
the cotton broker can not market his
products. The tenant is dependent on
the landlord in order to live through
the year Therefore, the southern
people, who have nothing to do with
this war, like poor little Belgium, are
the hardest hit by it; and in their

The trumpets call or the roll OF

The grace of the glory Of golden

The way of a woman is Gods own law
That unto the lives around her feet
Her love shall lift US to hold awe
And make us better and true anu

And make us wiser than merely WBe
And make us stronger than mercy

ABUSE INSTEAD OF ARGUMENT

It has become a habit with some
politicians I'm the oil business and
some oil men in the political business
whenever they find themselves IN "a
tight place and unable TO answer the
arguments OF their opponents to
sneerngly remark; PAY no attention
to those fellows, they are all on tho
payroll Of the Standard OH company
and cannot be believed" That has
happened some hundreds OF times in
this state and It win continue to hap
pen as long as there can be found men
foolish enough or ignorant enough to
absorb such sloppy stuff
whenever an oil bill is introduced
In the legislature by a small coterie OF
gentlemen who consider themselves
the divlnely appointed guardians Of
the states greatest industry and OBJ
| lection to Il is made, there comes the
old cry: STANDARD Oil Is fighting us
because we are trying 20 liberate the
producers from tho shackles Of mo-
nopoly" And this small town talk
goes with a considerable element OF
the population.

both sides Of every controversy which
has arisen in the oil country has been

Armament and War!
The earth is wet with blood.
And death is everywhere,
But hush from out wars scarlet flood.
And flash Of crimson spear,
There steals wondrous note of mirth,
Appealing Triumphant
Amid contending hosts Of earth
DISARMAMENT! DISARMAMENT!
Satanic hatred, black as night
Hells trumpetings resounding far,
Have conquered peace and love and light,
And plunged the nations into war;
But harkl above the bloody moat
An angel voice in love Christ-sent
Where men, turned demon, kill and goat-
DISARMAMENT! DISARMAMENT!
Ten thousand armored forts assail,
In mighty conflict crash and boom,
And cheer amid the gurgng wall.
As thousands strangle to their tomb.
But bark! from out the pound and crash,
Where flesh is torn and steel is bent
Above wars rage and billow.s lash
DISARMAMENT DISARMAMENT!
A million hearthstone shadows hide
million mothers cruel despair,
Those gruesome trenches gaping wide;
Those murdered darlngs mangled there
But oh, from out the anguished deep
or breaking hearts and wounded sore,
Above the homes where mothers weep
Above the hells where battles roar;
Again that blessed pleading psalm,
Healing to every nation sent
Earths sovereign cure, loves priceless balm
DISARMAMENT! DISARMAMENT!
Disarmament and Peace!
Again ten thousand crafts a-sail
Unfurl their shining banners bright
But now no the dismal wall
OF death I'm wars tempestuous night;
For. seel the mighty tides roll up
Vast commerce that wars death release,
While earth quaffs deep joys priceless cup
OF worldwide universal peace;
And sweetly for Gods ocean wide
OF endless love to nations sent
Wells out from Calvary's sacred tide
DISARMAMENT DISARMAMENT
And righteousness sent from above
Transforming billions lost for war
To messengers Of endless love,
Has healed old earth Of every scar;
No more the murderous army's tread,
No more cruel wrecks where navies steam
No more shall earth and sea run red
Where men and shrapnel screech and scream.
For healed the cruelest wound Of time
BY love who bids increase
BY ever shackling battle crime
Amid earths brotherhood Of peace,
And Faith and Hope, and Charity
Have won through Christ empires var-rent
Capturing the world for liberty
DISARMAMENT DISARMAMENT
