J. C. Hsskett left Sunday night i

Overholser, father of Mrs. naskett
waa in a dying condition. Mrs.
Haskett waa present when her
father died, bnt Mr. Hsskett did not
reach there. Mr. Overholser died
Monday morning at 7 o'clock. The
deceased waa at one time a resi
dent of thia city, being in business
here. After leaving here he lived
in Galena and Columbus, going to
Oklahoma City when that hnstlin
city was first started. He waa very
fortunate iu Oklahoma and it is es
timated that he left a fortune worth
a iuarter million dollars. Besides
his wife he left four children, Mrs

When the scheming lawyers of
Columbus were canvassing the
county for voters in favor of the
Columbus high school, they as

would never be an assessment oi

purposes. Will the taxpayers who
voted for the institution examine
their lost tax receipts and see
whether or not "la wars" or liars

In order to satiety or gratify o
few bigoted prohibition crunks the
treasury of Cherokee county hoe
been actually gutted, and an un
mensedebt piled up against the
tax payers, but we stiil have joints
bootleggers and blind tigers just
the same. This county has been
afflicted perhaps worse than any
other in the state and nothing hti
been accomplished. Our jails have
been tilled with vagabond joint
keepers and kept for mouths at the
expense of the tux payers. Look at
the court costs, lawyers' fees, costs
of grand, juries and expenses o(
spies and informers. Look at your
tax receipts; see them growing
larger year after year without any
apparent canse and no value re
ceived, except that the lawyers are
growing richer and the property
owners are growing poorer. Voters
should take more interest in their
own affairs than in those' of the
fanaticaand schemers who are sap
ping the treasury of Cherokee
county.
Bob Hiner's house was discovered
on fire last Thursday . night by a
passer-by, and he ran into the
house and told Bob his house was
on fire. Now, Boh was sitting in a
comfortable rocking chair, and waa
about half asleep when he was so
rudely awakened, and when the fel
low told Boh the bouse was on Cre,
he, supposed a joke w-as being
played on Lira, and leaning for
ward and putting bis hand. on the
stove he found the fire was out and
the stove quite cool. He straight
ened up, and aaid to the fellow, "Do
you think I am a d fool?" The
fellow insisted that Bob come out
doors and see for himself, which he
did, and found that the flames were
shooting out of the roof to a
heighth of perhaps five or six feet.
The fire was quickly extinguished,
nd Bob went back Into the bouse
to finish his nap. Hearafter, how-
ver, he will not think of jokea
when he bears the fire alarm. Tbe

Tbe corn crop of the United States
for 1905 amounts to $'J,7.V),()00,000 or
one-half million bushels more than
ever was raised in any previous
year. Our farmers should be grati
fied at this showing, as prices are
high and there seems to be a good
demand for the product at home
and abroad. The price in Baxter is
about 33 cents per bushel and our
mills and dealers are taking all
that comes in. Oats, wheat, hay
and all other farm products are
bringing good round prices and
