Dick H The Pawnbroker off The Leading Race Paper in The State of Oklahoma SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1914. T. J. Elliott, present of the state Lea gne made a talk in which he suggested the propriety and urgency of preparing an article to be signed by the leading citizens of Muskogee and published in the leading Negro journals in order to counteract the influence exerted by the series of article appearing in The Tul a Star and other race papers in Texas and elsewhere.

We have made arrangements whereby we can save this community hundreds of dollars by merely ordering their reading material through our office. Our best offer is a choice of any three of forty magazines, arranged in thirty-five clubs in combination with our own paper for only $1.25 a year. You will find this big offer advertised on another page of this paper. Look up the advertisement and read all about this remarkable offer. Select he club you like best, and send us your order right in—mail it, telephone it, or bring it to us, and we will fix it up at once so that you get your magazines. If there is anything in the advertisement you do not understand, drop into our office sometime and let us explain all about it. It's the best clubbing offer we have ever seen, and we are anxious to have every reader take advantage of it. SADLY SORDID. "I suppose you agree that reform is necessary." "Oh, yes," replied the political boss. "Reformers introduce a whole lot of legislation that is important to us practical guys because of the amount some people are willing to pay for the privilege of evading it." ADMIRER OF SHERLOCK. Mrs. Kawler—Well, my little man, I suppose you are going to follow in your father's footsteps when you grow up. Bobbie—No, I'm not. I'm going to be a detective and follow in other people's footsteps. GOT BACK AT HER. Mrs. Gabbleigh (nudging her husband, who is snoring)—William, you'd make less noise if you kept your mouth shut. Husband (only half awake)—So'd you.—Boston Evening Transcript. Tulsa Woman May Sue Katy Railroad Company Because the Katy ticket agent at Coweta refused to make a fire in the Colored waiting room last Sunday night, Mrs. Wm. Cherry, who a passenger there at that time waiting for the midnight train for Tulsa, is confined in her home in this city suffering a severe illness as a direct result of the exposure she was forced to undergo. It is very likely that a damage suit will be filed against the Katy railroad company growing out the impudent and discourteous treatment accorded Mrs. Cherry by the very unacemodating ticket agent. CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY A REMARKABLE FAMILY OP ACTORS. in 1753 John War J, an English theatrical manager, opposed a match between his daughter and a member of his company, not wishing her to marry an actor. He finally gave consent, however, consoling himself with the thought that the young man was not much of an actor. In this he was mistaken, for the young man, whose name was Roger Kemble, not only succeeded well in his profession, but became the founder of a family that is remarkable in the annals of the English stage. Twelve children were born to the couple, of whom eight reached maturity; and every one of the eight made some effort on the stage. The oldest child, Sarah, became the renowned Mrs. Biddons. The oldest son, John Phillip, was probably the greatest actor of his day, and was known as "the great Kemble." The eleventh child, Charles, was a renowned comedian, while his daughter, Fanny Kemble, was probably the best known to the public of all the family. Her sister, Adelaide, attained considerable popularity as a public singer. Her son married the daughter of General Grant.

FREEDMEN'S LAND IS TAXABLE Important Decision Handed Down by Supreme Court. Oklahoma City.—Several thousand acres of valuable land allotted by the government to former negro slaves in the Chickasaw nation were declared to be subject to taxation the same as other land, by the state supreme court, in an opinion announced by Justice Willard R. Bleakmore. This ruling reverses a former opinion of the court, written by Justice John B. Turner, which held the land of former Chickasaw slaves was exempt. The land in question is owned by negroes, who were former slaves of the Chickasaws, and was allotted under an act of congress in 1902. The land was purchased from the Indian nation by the government expressly for the purpose of allotment to the former slaves. Immediately after statehood those who still held their allotments resisted the payment of taxes, claiming the land was exempt from taxation under the Atoka agreement. The Atoka agreement held that land allotted to freedmen should be exempt from taxation, but the court holds that under the agreement no land was allotted to the Chickasaw freedmen and therefore the terms of that agreement do not apply. Under an act of congress in 1902, forty acres or land were allotted to each freedman in the Chickasaw nation, but the court holds that congress never intended to give the freedman equal rights with the Indians. The opinion is given in the case or approximately 300 negroes who sought to enjoin the collection of taxes on their land by an order from the district court of Garvie county. Judge R. McMillan sustained a demurrier to the plea of the petitioners, and his ruling is sustained by the higher court. Another important decision, dealing with the subject of taxation also was given by the court. It was by Justice F. E. Riddle, holding that county commissioners have the authority to appoint competent persons to assist in placing omitted taxable property on the tax rolls of their counties. The opinion is given on the application of the Osage and Oklahoma company, which supplies gas to the city of Tulsa and other places in that part of the state. That concern asked for a writ of prohibition to prevent C. H. Pittman, employed by Osage county as a tax ferret, and the county treasurer of Osage county from spreading on the tax rolls certain property alleged to be owned by the company and which has been omitted from taxation. The amount of property involved, including gas leases is estimated at more than $5,000,000. The gas company contended there was no authority of law by which a tax ferret could be employed. The court holds that the county authorities are charged with the responsibility of seeing that all taxable property is assessed and taxed, and that the employment of persons to assist in placing omitted property on the tax rolls can be done without conflicting with the constitution. 40.000 Austrians In Single Grave. Amsterdam.—The Nieuwe Rotterdam damsche Courant quotes a letter from a Galacian priest stating that 40,006 Austrians were buried in one day in a grave six and one-half feet wide and a little more than four mites long. The bodies, the letter says, were laid in three layers. These men were killed it is stated, during a battle lasting only a few hours. TULSA.

The nominating committee recommended that the old ministers' relief fund be left to the directors of the convention; that the choice of the next meeting place be made by the directors at their first meeting; that L. E. Floyd of Tulsa preach the annual sermon, with J. N. Edwards for alternate. The university matter was brought before the convention in the report of the executive committee and there was a petition from the Southwest Baptist college at Mangum asking that the institution be taken over by the convention and trustees appointed. Both matters were allowed to go over until the report of the educational committees comes before the convention for discussion. The convention voted for the single alignment with the home mission board of the Southern Baptist convention and named a committee to adopt resolutions of appreciation to send the northern body. The report of the Oklahoma Baptist hospital at Muskogee, given by Dr. I. B. Oldham, showed receipts of $10,000 and expenditures of practically the same amount, including $1,000 charity work. The splendid work the hospital is doing was favorably commented upon by the convention. Don't exaggerate or misrepresent an article advertised in this page.

Every day in the newspapers there crop up incidents dealing with the st bust of machine gun fire, and an emer works number of these weapons, are doing their deadly work today. ploy the Schwarzlose, and Germans the Maxim. In all cases machine guns are attached to the infantry, fibres, usually at the proportion of two guns per battalion, or 1,000 men. These guns are rifle cartridges at immense speed by mechanical means, and usually, the kick, or recoil, of the gun is used for the purpose of reloading. It is interesting to note that in a test 42 British first-class shots engaged against a machine gun, each firing at the same target for one minute, the gun discharged 228 rounds and made 69 hits, the 42 marksmen discharged 408 rounds and made 62 hits.

Nothing could be of greater vital interest to the family than to know how to avoid catching cold. COLDS THAT KILL If it be true, as one famous doctor says, that catching cold can be avoided, think what it means. Two thirds of the sickness that now oppresses the people would be avoided. Serious interference with business. The anguish of anxious parents. The blasting of many brilliant dreams. All these things, would be largely done away with. If people knew how to avoid catching cold. Catching cold is a very common experience in numerous households. People have come to believe that there is no way to avoid it. CAN BE AVOIDED People are taught in the "Life of Life" how to avoid, then ceaseless drain that catching cold makes upon the vital organa.

EASILY UNDERSTOOD BY ALL Wireless Signal Sent Out by Ships in Distress is Universal Call JAW for Assistance In talking with the wireless operator many ship passengers ask the meaning of the three letters used in the distress signal. SO. SO. There seems to be a general opinion that the letters are the abbreviation of three separate words with a definite meaning. Persons of an imaginative trend will tell you that the letters stand for 'Save our ship', "Sew out, stucco", "Sink or swim", or some such meaning. The letters signal, nothing but that a ship is in distress and in need of assistance. The sail is used by all nations as an universal code, so that any wireless operator, regardless of the language he speaks, immediately intercept the call of distress, as much as the call is in use by all countries, it can be seen that the signal can be written in any language. The character of the code makes it call that either the plane has坠入 from other signals, being composed of three dots, three dashes, three dots — Ocean Wireless Ships.

How the struggle is progressing is unknown. The newspaper critics interpret conditions as generally favorable (of the Austro-Germans) and assert that the German advance beyond Alabama and the vicinity of Ploch has eliminated danger of an invasion of East and West Prussia except by such cavalry forces as are operating northward of Buitykulfen, in East Prussia on the Rissard border. These, however, are only raiders. Przemysl About to Fall A dispatch from Petrogrid says that it has announced there that the siege of Przemysl appears to be rapid in approaching its end. The trenches surrounding the fortifications are in the possession of the Russian troops. Many of the trenches are filled with water, confirming statements of prisoners that cholera is raging in the garison of Przemysl. Przemysl now does not Austrians Tell of Success. Reports from Vienna tell of successes in Galicia, including the occupation by the Teutonic allies of Tarnow and Wieliczka, according to these reports even thousand prisoners were taken. Kieliczka is the most westerly point reached by the Russians on their arrival and approach. Big German Army in Poland. The advance of the Germans from Them into Poland is being made in great force. The greatest German strength is to be concentrated on this line. Fighting of the most desperate character has been in progress and heavy losses have been suffered by both sides. It is now a race, between the Russian army invading East Prussia and the German force striking at Potsdam. It is believed generally that lesser success is possible, the pressure upon East Prussia by striking a crushing blow with his forces advancing along the Vistula river from Lustwit. A history for the Russians about Soldau would be followed by a quick rush into East Prussia which would force an abandonment of the determined resistance in Poland for the defense of the northern province. In Cultota, before Crawow, and in East Prussia, the Russians are pushing their advantage, apparently disregarding the fact that their counterpart has compelled the French back. They also are showing much activity in the Carpathians, their object being to prevent the Austrians from settling into Hungary—in fact, it is stated that they already have cut off eight hundred thousand Austrians who now be controlled if defeated to retreat was wood Russian and Turkish squadrins have met in a long distance battle against bastopol and each claims to have had the better of the encounter. According to the Russian report the former German officer Göring, was attached to the Turkish navy, was damaged, while the Turks assert that the Russian Sailors suffered severely and that the other Russian warships were compelled to retire. TULSA. OKLA. STAR Germans in the Flood. Many heavy guns have been lost by the Germans in the floods in Flanders. The official French communique in stating this declares that the artillery fire from the coast to the Lyon has slackened somewhat. Snow is again falling in Flanders and the bad weather prevented any infantry attacks, being made by the Germans. The Germans followed up their advantage at Chauvancourt in the region of St. Mihiel and have recoupled the village. Repulse French at Verdun. The German troops have repulsed a French attack in the neighborhood of Verdun, France, according to an official communication issued by the German general army headquarters.

An entire German regiment was destroyed north of Dixschoote when the allied troops again flooded the district in which the bitter fighting for the line to the coast has been in progres for the last month. Turks Push Slays Back. The general staff of the Russian Caucasian army has issued a com munication confirming the report from Turkish sources that the Russians had received a check near Erzerum. Bombardment Kills 250. A dispatch from Athens says the Turks lost 250 men and two guns destroyed in the bombardment of the fonts of the Dardanelles. The former German cruisers Goeben and Euselau, which now by the Turkish flag, have reentered the Bosphorus. German Cruiser Interned. The German cruiser Berlin has been interned at Trondheim, Norway.

The driver did not stop to learn what damage he might have done. But purred more speed. Luckily, the woman was not much hurt, and a central simpson police man politely asked her name and address. This information, however, she sturdily refused to give. Then the policemen put away after the machine. niceman put out after the machine. "Where are you going?" asked the woman. "I am going to arrest the man for speeding," answered the officer. "Oh, please don't do that. It won't do you any good, and it won't do me any good. The driver of that car was my husband. Please let him go!" Richard rushed into the house after his first day at school and seized the funny page of the paper, scanning it with eager anticipation.

LEGISLATURE TO CANVASS VOTES NO ELECTION CERTIFICATES EX CEPT TO LAWMAKERS, UNTIL THAT TIME. TO COMPLY WITH THE NEW LAW Will Be First Time In History of State That This Has Been Done— Fair Association Elects Oklahoma City.—For the first time in the history of Oklahoma that portion of the constitution, which provides that the legislature shall canvass election returns and declare the result, is to be carried out, according to a statement by Secretary Joe Morris of the state election board. The state board will not issue certificates of election to any candidates in the recent election, except to members of the state and national house and senate, until after the legislature has canvassed the returns and declared the result, as provided by the constitution. It is considered necessary by the board to issue certificates to the members of the legislature, inasmuch as they are required by the constitution to act in an official way in canvassing the vote on other state officers. This provision of the constitution has never been followed to the letter. Heretofore it has been the custom of a joint meeting of both branches on the day of first day of the session to accept returns certified by the state board, and declare the result accordingly. 1915 FAIR OFFICIALS SELECTED Preparations Already Begun For Big Show Next Year. The eighth annual meeting of the stockholders of the Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition was held at the Chamber of Commerce rooms in Oklahoma City Tuesday, Nov. 10, 1914. A greater number of shares were represented than at any previous meeting. The stockholders elected the old board of directors to serve for the ensuing year: H. Overholser, J. L. Wilkin, J. F. Warren, J. M. Owen, C. F. Colcord, J. M. Noble, S. L. Brock, Jos. Huckins, Jr., G. B. Stone, Orin Ashton, I. S. Mahan. A resolution increasing the capital stock from $100,000.00 to $250,000.00 was passed at the meeting. The report of the auditing committee appointed by the board of directors was unanimously adopted. The report showed in detail the receipts and disbursements of the association and while the 1914 state fair was not a financial success the stockholders and directors were unanimous in the opinion that it was the best fair held in the history of the organization and that every effort would be made to keep the fair up to its present excellent standard. The annual meeting of the board of directors was held Thursday, Nov. 12, and the following officers were elected: President, J. F. Warren; Vice-President, G. B. Stone; Treasurer, J. M. Owen; Secretary, I. S. Mahan. The executive committee for 1915 will be J. L. Wilkin, J. M. Owen, John M. Noble, Orin Ashton, I. S. Mahan. The dates of the 1915 state fair will be Sept. 21 to Oct. 2, 1915. The board appointed W. H. Birdseye cashier and superintendent of privileges and Miss Vera McQuillkin, assistant secretary. The offices of the state fair are located at $130\frac{1}{2}$ West Grand Avenue. It has been announced by the secretary that the work of compiling the premium list for the next fair is now in progress and will be issued May 1, 1915. Oklahoma Bankers Subscribing Fund A meeting of the Oklahoma committee of the national cotton loan fund was held in the offices of W. B. Harrison, secretary of the Oklahoma State Bankers' Association, and a report on the progress of the fund in the state was heard. Of the $135,000,000 which is to be included in the loan fund, about $35,000,000 is yet to be subscribed. This latter sum is to be raised among the bankers of the cotton states. Oklahoma bankers can subscribe up to $3,000,000 which will entitle them to borrow from the fund the sum of $12,000,000. The state committee is composed of the following bank presidents: William Mee, Security National bank; E. H. Cooke, State National bank; Frank P. Johnson, American National bank; Frank J. Wikoff, Tradesman State bank, and Dan W. Hogan, Farmers National bank, all of this city. The bankers over the state have subscribed $300,000 up to date. HAVE YOU A CHILD?

OKLA., STAR THE WHEAT LANDS OF WESTERN CANADA AN ATTRACTION THE WHEAT LANDS OF WESTERN CANADA AN ATTRACTION THE EUROPEAN WAR MAKES THE GROWING OF WHEAT EXCEPTIONALLY REMU-NERATIVE. One result of the European War has been to reduce the volume of business done by many of the manufacturing institutions of the United States, commercial enterprises have been affected, business of many kinds have been hampered, and a financial stringency has been forced on almost every community. It is not only because it has brought these things about, and created a lot of hardship, but there is the outstanding fact of the terrible loss of life, the great destruction of property, and the disruption of everything near and dear to those whose countries are involved in the war that makes the whole affair highly regrettable. The heart of the entire world goes out in sympathy to those within the area of the trouble. Arrangements have been made to relieve the distress by money and other means. But there is one great thing wheat and flour--that the European countries will need. The wheat-producing countries are no longer producing, and there is the gravest reason to fear that they will not be for some years. In this case, it would be fully as beneficial and charitable to make provision to meet the loss of Europe's grain crop by encouraging a greatly increased growth on this continent. The wheat-growing sections of the United States have about reached their limit of production, and this source cannot be depended upon to meet a great deal of the demand that there will be for some years. The only country that is in a position to meet it is—Canada—that portion known as Western Canada. Here there are millions of acres of land, capable of producing from 20 to 40 bushels per acre. All this land is excellent for wheat, and very much is still in the hands of the Dominion Government, and 160 acres of it can be had by the payment of a ten dollar entry fee. Another vast area is that held by railway and reliable land companies, held at from $10 to $25 per acre. Improved farms are slightly higher in price. Information regarding these lands may be had of any Canadian Government Agent. The fact that Canada offers such a splendid opportunity should be accepted with a wide-spread appreciation, and not met with attempts on the part of some to spread misleading statements. The Dominion Government has not taken steps to deny many of the false statements circulated by those who evidently are more interested in injuring Canada than benefiting those who would be benefited by taking up farms in Canada, but in order to correct a highly erroneous impression that conscription is carried on in Canada, that compulsory military service is employed and that there is restraint as to the movement of those not Canadians, the necessity is felt of giving as much publicity as possible to a denial of these statements. An item to which special exception is taken is one which says: "They are sending them away as rapidly as possible; but the young men are not permitted to leave Canada. All the citizens and those who have taken up homesteads are subject to military duty." In direct refutation of this, we beg to quote from a recent editorial in the Rochester, N. Y., Herald: "There is no legal process by which Great Britain can command a single Canadian soldier to enter the field in her aid or even in her most needful defense. Great Britain cannot legally take a dollar of Canada's money for this or any other war without Canada's consent. All must be given voluntarily, if it be given at all. Yet men and dollars are given to the limit of Canada's power to give, just as if Great Britain had both physical and legal power to exact them. Indeed, it is possible that they are given more freely in this way, for what a man gives because he wants to give is likely to be greater than what he gives under force. "All in all it is a noble picture of devotion to her motherland which Canada offers to the gaze of her admiring and unenvious neighbors." Canada's invitation for Immigration extends to all who are willing to go on to the farms. Superintendent of Immigration, Ottawa, Canada. Advertisement. CASTORIA For Infants and Children.
