COEDN'T RAISE FISHWORMS.BITT GETS OIL MONEY
Poorest Indian In Oklahoma Suddenly Enriched By i Oil Strike.
v.

-
CUSHING, Okla.—Jackson Barnett, Creek Indian ol Muskogee, long reputed as the richest Indian in the country, as a result of oil royalties, now must take a hack
seat.
Mrs. Esther Jefferson of Cushing restricted member of the Sac and Fox tribe, now holds the honor. But, up until about a year ago, Esther was classed among the poorest. She had an allotment of 140 acres, but the ground was so bare “It wouldn’t even haise good fish worms,” she said. Her allowance of $1,000 a year from the United States government was the only sustenance on which Esther and her husband and two daughters could depend. Now, Esther has an income of more than $1,200 a day, with several wells under the drill, promising to add to the flow of money into the Jefferson household. The $1,200 a day has been steady since early last spring, when the first well was brought in on her barren little farm, until now, with restrictions of the Shawnee Indian agent requiring her to spend only a small part of her income, Esther has amassed a fortune variously estimated between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000 including several royalty bonuses, and with the money still coming in, Mrs. Jefferson, who is under the Shawnee reservation, some years ago received the small allotment of land. Being practically penniless, and with the land not furnishing enough on which to live, she rented a little shack in Cushing, where her husband, Mose, obtained occasional labor. Then came the Cushing oil discovery and a lease was made on -her little tract. While the wells were being drilled, she besought the superintendent of the Shawnee agency for authority to borrow $100 to pay her rent and grocery bills. Within a few weeks, she was receiving royalties which climbed to $36,000 a month. Mrs. Jefferson’s royalties have not reached the total Barnett’s reached, but her steady income is larger. Barnett’s income has fallen off considerably during the last three years. When riches replaced poverty, Mrs. Jefferson did not squander her money—even had the agency allowed much. She bought a little cottage in a nice residential district, acquired a car and bought several “niceties” for the house. The first thing she did when she received her ■ first royalty check was to send her family washing to a steam laundry. “I alv/ays wanted to let someone else do my washing, so that was the first thing I thought about as a means of celebrating,” Esther said. o
INTERESTING POSTAL FACTS
The largest single business in the world. Every year the postal service handles 23,000,000,000 articles; every year the increase in number of articles handled is more than one billion. Every second of the twenty-four hours of the day there are 389 letters dropped into letter boxes; every minute 23,334 and every hour 1,400,000. The weight of the mails handled annually is estimated at 133,350 tons. Roman messengers speeding to the distant ends of the Empire over the ■ substantial Roman roads, changed tired horses for fresh at relay stations on the roads to Gaul, Britain, Germania, and Snain. An edict of a Roman Emperor was carried by swift running horses and reliable riders to the most distant ‘military stations in an merediblely short space of time. These relay stations were called “posta” and from this significant term marking the relays we get our modern word for the postal system in use throughout the entire world. Last year the air mail planes flew 2,500,000 miles carrying 14,145,640 letters. It cost the government $89,134,000 to pay the cost of the transportation of the mail on the railroads of the country. Railway mail cars travelled for that year a total distance of 268,993,322 miles, almost three times the distance of the earth from the

Destructive Fire Damages Marion
Kokomo, Ind., Dec. 7.—Fire of unknown origin has damaged considerable of property in the center of Marion’s business district and has not yet been brought under control, according to the Marion Chronicle. The blaze started in the basement of the Kresge 5 and 10 cent store about 5:30 this morning. It spread rapidly to the entire building, owned by the Goldthwaite estate, which will be a total loss.

The flames are eating to the north, an entire half block being threatened.
AMERICAN DRYS FACE STRONG FOE, SAYS NICHOLSON
M. E. Bishop Calls Ontario Wets’ Victory Sharp Challenge.
Detroit, Mich., Dec. 7—The ‘‘wet” victory in Ontario should have the effect of arousing American drys to the realization that they have a powerful and resourceful foe. Bishop Thomas Nicholson of the Detroit area of the Methodist Episcopal church and national president of the Anti-Saloon League of America, in commenting upon the Com servative victory in the provincial election last Wednesday. The result of the election, Bishop Nicholson said, was the sharpest challenge yet received by American prohibition. “The Ferguson victory,” he said, “is a clean-cut ^challenge to our enforcement, especially in Michigan. For the first time border states in this region will have an opportunity to observe both experiments in close comparison, or competition would perhaps be the better word. We are not afraid. In fact we welcome the opportunity to compare notes with Canada over the next five-year period.” “Added Evidence.” Bishop Nicholson declared the “illusory palliative” of government control would “show: up in its true colors in Ontario. If the liquor evil can’t be suppressed, how much less chance is there to regulate it The ultimate result will be to give added evidence, that the only way to deal with this nefarious traffic is to pull it up root and branch. “The Ontario organizations that fought so long for prohibition withered up and died as soon as their objective was attained,” he'.continued. “They underestimated the forces against them. Prohibition organizations in this country may well take a lessrirt fflftim the Canadian situation and maintain unimpaired vigilance. Enactment of a law is only half of the victory. RUDROW TO MEET

Bunner Resigns; Not In Harmony With Hampton
It may be information for the people of Muncie to knoAv that George Bunner, one of the two republican members of the Board of Safety, has tendered his resignation from that body. “I handed my resignation to Mayor Hampton over thirty days ago,” declared Mr. Bunner In an interview with The Post Demo-
crat Thursday.
Mr. Bunner states that Mayor Hampton has taken no action whatever in the matter and that his resignation has not been accepted. He says, however, that he has attended no meetings of the Board of Safety, nor has he functioned in any manner as a member of the board since the date of the formal presentation of his resignation to Mayor Hampton. Mr. Bunner is superintendent of the Warner Gear. It is known that he has been dissatisfied with the conduct of police affairs and while he does not say so in express language, it is taken for granted that he is not in harmony with the Hampton administration.

PLAYING SAFE
The Indianapolis Times In an editorial reproduced in this issue, speaks of the “perpetual open season” which seems to prevail in Muncie. Newspapers all over the United States are commenting on conditions here, but the Star seems to be perfectly satisfied. The Times says the Post-Demo-crat has told the truth and made things uncomfortable for derelect public officials, and that it has proved to be hazardous undertaking for the editor. It says some newspapers do not publish the truth and will not publish the truth even when it is thrust on them. It says such newspapers are safe. The Star is one newspaper that keeps well within the safety zone. It professes to stand for the uplift of the community but remains silent while the foulest abuses, oppressions and extortions are practiced on its readers by grafters in office and their underworld accomplices. The mere fact that several attempts have been made to assassinate a Muncie editor because his newspaper tells the truth has excited no burst of indignation in the Star office. From the Star viewpoint, no doubt, the editor of The Post-Dem-ocrat is very foolish to expose himself to the wrath of the underworld, when he could just as easily follow the example of the Star and play safe by remaining silent. Ministers and newspaper men who take their jobs seriously should speak plainly and plain speaking is always dangerous to those who do the speaking. Bullets and prosecutions have answered all criticisms directed against public officials by this newspaper. We have no personal fear of either. Our only dread is the danger of injury to our fam-
ily.
