Up to date no showing has been made in the First National Bank affairs. The depositors still linger around the corners cursing ill luck. The long promised resumption of the bank has not taken place yet. How long will the people have to wait? S. S.

Stephens received a letter from Col. Duncan, allotment agent, that he would be at Kildare on or about Aug. 15th to set off his allotment. Mr. Stephens will take his allotment near Kildare, the Future Great of Oklaho ma Territory.

What is the matter with our post- office? Complaints come in every mail of subscribers not receiving then-paper, several subscribers whose papers are mailed regularly through the office here, have entered complaint to the same effect, something must be wrong. Oklahoma papers still insist that those who have been on the Cherokee Strip since March 3rd 1893, will be considered sooners. We see no senBe, no equity, no justice in such buncombe. If such were the case 99 per cent of the people on the border, in all the towns in Sonthern Kansas and all over Oklahoma would be disqualified. S.

S. Stephens, who has taken his allotment near Kildare, was in town last Saturday. He is a live wide awake business man and is making arrangements to put several houses on his allotment. He has lumber from eastern Texas, on the road for that purpose now. Mr.

Stephens, has completed arrangements whereby he will have a paper pub-liahed on his allotment before the opening if possible. If vou want to rent a room or if vou have a room to rent.

The officers of the colony are very obliging and will do everything in their power to advance the interests of the members as they arrive here. Chaplin, July 18, 1893. Harding Riddell, proprietors of Cher okee Strip Guide, Arkansas City, Kansas. Gents: I enclose money order for for your paper, the weekly Guide, also the Settlers' True Guide and Hand-Book. First also I want information aa to whether I can come out in person and take a claim, and then return to Kentucky long enough to settle my business up here and then move my family out to the claim, say about five or six months.

Second also, can I take a claim and yet open a store in some town too, or would I have to live on my claim all the time. Respectfully, J. N. Butt. In answer to first question yes, you can come out and take a claim and then after you file get a permit from the land office to be absent for the same six months.

Second If you take a claim, you would have to reside upon it, if you are the head of a family, otherwise, you would not necessarily have to live on the land. You might get a claim near enough to town to live on It and yet do business in town. World's Fair Frisco Line.

For some weeks a party of surveyors have been at work in the Cherokee strip permanently locating the line tor the extension of the Hutchinson Oklahoma Gulf railway into Oklahoma, and on Saturday work began on the Kansas line to pus'i the road fnrther south. The road has been in operation from Hutchinson to Came ron on the state line for several years and is backed by the Union Pacific. 1 hey hope to get an extension built to Pond Creek before the opening of the strip and will than build straight from there to Guthrie and on to Texas The Proclamation'.

11-tf The civilized Indian will hold on to his anatomy. They aro not afraid of any sort of com pulsion, legal or physical. The Cherokees realize the necessities of the situation surrounding them and oflVr no obstruction to Statehood. The Cherokee Strip will be opened for settlement not later then September 12th in the old fashioned horserace way. The Frisco will always give you the very lowest rate and the best accommodation to the World's Fair.

W. E. Doan, Agent. Tho Osages will be wise in devising ways and moans for holding their country just as it is for four or Ave years at least. The five civilized tribes will light Statehood to tho bitter end, when they do come in as a state they want an Indian State.

A Boomer bought 3 doz. eggs for 3 times as many cants as he could have bought eggs for 3 cents. What did he pay per dozen?
