The wolf hunt, last Thursday, was hardly a success or a failure cither. We succeeded in catching two wolfs and'-'John rabbits" too numerous to mention. Uncle Jake Held had a tine hound killed in the hunt and a Mr.

Brand, of Anthony, had one of his hounds crippled, caused by an unrulj' horse running over them. There were several ladies at the roundup, and also a good many brass collared gentlemen from Anthonv.

Ham- mers will compare favorably with any one-horse drug-store editor." The idea jof assailing a man's character or relig- ious principles because he happens to i be in debt or not Ieloiiging to the same political party makes us tired A few of the -and country saving men of Eagle township have recently discovered that the ri- i nancial depression among the farmers in this locality is due to extravagance. This is an insult to everv honest farm- er in the township, for a few men to set up a plea of extravagance against i our citizens who have had sickness and death and almost starvation in their fan lies, and have been confronted bv two almost total failures of crops within the last four years. This insult has been thrown at poor men by men who jave been fortunate enough to get a fat job on cattle ranches and by. branding mavericks. Others have been Oklahoma "sooners'" and sold land that they never had right or title to: another is a man that turned his wife's mother out of his house and let 1 Jier lay out on the prairie all night and MURPHY BROS.
