LA TOILETTE HIT IN COUNCIL OF DEFENSEACTION Will Hays Says He Would Have Removed Senator From Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 4. Resolutions directed at Senator Robert M. LaFollette. denouncing "all acts and utterances of a disloyal nature" were adopted by the Indiana State Council of Defense, at its regular meeting today. ' If this had happened in Indiana (LaFollette's aUeged treasonable speech) I -want to say that the chairman of the State Council of Defense would have proceeded to find some way whereby he could have been removed from the state, by the neck,' said Chairman Will H. Hays, leaving the chair and speaking in favor of the adoption of the resolution. False Reports Hurt. The matter -was presented to the Council by Frank Wampler, after U had been reported by George Ade that much of the work of preparing for war, such as knitting, canning, etc., had been interrupted by such false reports as one that the officers were selling the knit articles to the soldiers at Ft. Harrison, instead of giving them away. The motion to adopt the resolution and send copies to Vice President Thomas R. Marshall and the Indiana senators and representatives in congress, was made by Charles Fox, presi

dent of the Indiana Federation of La

bor and a member of the council, and seconded by A. E. Reynolds, of Crawfordeville, after amendments had been made making the text of the original draft "stronger."

Mr. Fox said that secret investigators representing the federal government had been circulating among laboring men In the state, a practice which the organization favored and encouraged "for we want to stamp out all disloyalty" and that he felt that the same exposure and the same punishment should be meted to "higher-ups" in the government. The text of the resolution follows: Text of Resolution. "Be it Resolved, that the Indiana State Council of Defense hereby puts itself on record as denouncing all acts and utterances of a disloyal nature. To condemn and resent an act of treason is the plain duty of every American citizen. The attention of our people has been called to the malicious, false and treasonable-like statements accredited to U. S. Senator M. LaFollette. Such words and acts not only hinder our efforts, but misrepresent the heart of our country in this war. They give Eid and comfort to the enemy, which has been guilty of crimes against humanity unprecedented and almost beyond belief. Be it veiled or uncovered, treason, wherever found, and should be dealt with accordingly. It is the sentiment of this council that United States senators should immediaely give serious consideration to the question of removing from the United States senate, of any and all members of that body whose acts or words are detrimental to a successful prosecution of the war." Asked to Use Wood. The council directed that another effort be made to interest people of the state in the importance of conserving the fuel available from fallen timber, in view of the "impending serious shortage of coal" and county councils will be asked to make a survey of the timber available in their communities for fuel, and report to the state board of forestry, which will endeavor to find a market for wood fuel. Marshall county onion growers complained to the state council that the railroads there refused to accept cars only partially loaded, because of the "onion sweat" and the result was that onions either are being wasted or hauled thirty miles to another railroad. The committe on transportation will endeavor to secure relief. Prof. G. I. Christie was asked by the council to co-operate with the school authorities in an effort to secure the dismissal of schools where necessary to save "the enormous tomato crop" which it was reported by W. G. Irwin, Is being lost in parts of Marion and Johnson counties.

LONG-LOST SHIP SAFE IN PORT

OAKLAND. Cal., Oct. 4. Captain Kaddon Smith and the crew of the long overdue four-masted schooner, R. C. Slade, are safe at Suva, Fiji islands, according to a cablegram received today by Mrs. Smith. 'The message contained no information as to the fate of the schooner, which left Sydney, N. S. V. on April 24 for San Francisco. The captain of the schooner Ottillie Fjord, which arrived at San Francisco recently, reported that on June 19, near the equater he sighted the burning derelict of a vessel that answered the description of the R. C. Slade.

Library War Fund Expected To Be Largely Oversubscribed

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. The library war council, of which Frank A. Vanderlip, New York banker, is chairman, today reported to Secretary Baker that $800,000 of the proposed million dollar camp library fund is in the hands of its treasurers. Secretary Baker established the council to raise by popular subscription money with which to provide soldiers and sailors with library facilities. Members of the council today expressed the opinion that the million dollars it originally aimed to raise will be oversubscribed by nearly five hundred thousand dollars. New York City reports the largest receipts with its local fund well over the $100,000 mark. Chicago has collected more than $50,000 and Boston $40,000. Although the campaign was planned on the basis of only five cents per capita of the reachable urban population of the country and local quotas fixed on this basis, scores of towns have far exceeded their goals. Goble, Oregon, leads the list in per capita subscription, with an average of thirty-eight cents for every inhabitant. Washington, New York, is high

CAMP KNOWN AS ZACHARY TAYLOR

RHEUMATISM A Home Cure Given By One Who Had It. In the spring of 1893 I . was attacked by Muscular and Inflammatory Rheumatism. I suffered as only those who have it know, for over three years. I tried remedy after remedy, and doctor after doctor, but such relief as I received was only temporary. Finally, I found a remedy that cured me completely, and it has never returned. I have given it to a number who were terribly afflicted and even bedridden with Rheumatism, and it effected a cure in every case. I want every sufferer from any form of rheumatic trouble to try this marvelous healing power. Don't send a cent; simply mail your name and address and I will send it free to try. After you have used it and it has proven itself to be that long-looked-for means of curing your Rheumatism, you may send the price of it, one dollar, but understand, I do not want your money unless you are perfectly satisfied to send it. Isn't that fair? Why suffer any longer when positive relief is thus offered you free? Don't delay. Write today. Mark H. Jackson. No. 49 D, Gurney Bldg.. Syracuse. N. Y. Adv.

Starting on October 15, and continuing until October 31, 1917, representatives of the Interior department of the United States Government will offer for sale at public auction at various railroad points in Eastern Oklahoma the remaining lands belonging to the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indian nations. These lands will be offered in tracts of forty, eighty or 160 acres each, and under the rules promulgated by the secretary of the Interior residence thereon or improvements ' will not be required. Each tract has been appraised by government approisers at certain minimum prices, ranging from $3 per acre, up, according to their distance from railroad towns, their desirability as farming or grazing lands or from

the estimated growth of merchantable !

timber thereon. The following information regarding the Indian lands is taken from the booklet, "Oklahoma Indian Lands." Climate and Crops. The Indian lands are located in a region that has an average annual rainfall of forty inches, a growing season of 240 days, mild winters and long summers. The climate is healthful. All standard crops grown in the northern states thrive, and In addition there are cotton, cow peas, peanuts, and other southern crops. The country is especially adapted to the production of Irish and sweet potatoes, and certain sections of the bottom lands are suitable for development as truck farms, the growing season being long enough for two crops a year. Strawberries, peaches and grapes are specialties that attract the fruit grower. Markets. There is a big local demand for farm produce of all sorts, as the present population is largely industrial. The annual pay roll of the coal mines in the district is $8,000,000. The miners depend largely upon goods sent in from the northern markets which could as well be supplied by local producers. The distance from McAllister to Oklahoma City is but 120 miles, and at the latter point are located two big packing plants that afford a ready market for every head of cattle, sheep or swine that can be produced. Oil and Gas. There is a speculative value to the lands that attract some, namely the opportunity for oil and gas discoveries. The lands are located within the geological oil and gas area, near some of the greatest oil and gas fields in the world. Gas has been discovered and is in commercial use on the eastern portion of the land. However, no speculative value is taken into consideration by the government in fixing the appraised prices, these being based solely upon the value of the lands from the agricultural or grazing standpoint. Schooling Car Now Here. A handsome Pullman car arrived here yesterday over the Pennsylvania railroad and is parked at the Pennsylvania station to. remain for several days. The car will, be open to the public from 9 to 12 a. m., 1 to 5 and 7 to 9 p. m. The car is equipped with a fine display of farm products, fruits and mineral resources of eastern Oklahoma. Also fine photographs of the lands to be sold, and views in the cities and towns of the district. The attention of visitors is also directed to the numerous maps, most of which were furnished by the government. Richmond people cannot purchase any of the land at the car, but they can get valuable Information concerning the Indian lands and will be shown how to proceed in order to secure their share. Expert attendants are with the car and extend an Invitation to the people of Wayne county to pay them a visit. Admission to the car and all information is entirely free.
