ed at the Sheriffs office, to which

Charles L. Daugherty^ formerly a
=z_ -Deuton newspaper man who is now
" Labor Commissioner of4 Oklahoma, is
here on a visit to his parents, Mr
and Mrs. C. C. Daugherty, his mo
ther being confined to her bed by
rheumatism. Mr. Daugherty came in
Saturday night and spent most of his
time while down town shaking hands
with Denton friends, nearly all of
whom asked him about the Haskell
townsite fraud cases
“Governor Haskell will clear him-
self of the charges," said Mr. Daugh-
erty. ''it is strictly a political case
and grew out of the Governor's
prominence in the recent presiden-
tial campaign If Haskell is guilty
there are 500.000 other townsite
claimants guilty of the same offense
and the fact that the claims were
approved by the fownsite Commis-
sion clears the Governor and others
of any fraud These records, show
the claims were! filed and approved
by the Townsite commission, howev-
er. the courts refuse to admit as tes-
timony. Everybody in Oklahoma be-
lieves the prosecution is really per
secutton and in punisnmem of Has-
kell’s contributions to the 1908 cam-
paign. Today Governor Haskejj is
stronger with the people of Oklaho-
ma than he. has ever been and-there
Is nothing he could ,ls*t Oklahoma
that would not be given .urn."
No opponent for Mr. Daugherty's
place has as yet announced and he
may, make his second race without
opposition.

Katie Daffan chapter of the Uni-
ted Daughters of the Confederacy
will devote their efforts during
1910 to raising funds for the erec-
tion of a monument to the Confed
erate dead of Denton county. Whil?
the Daughters will do the active
work, the Confederate Veterans of
Sul Ross camp will aid <b the move-
ment in every possible way
The plans at present are to se-
cure tne funds during the doming
year to erect a handsome monument
located in the court bouse yard on
the public square. Plans as to the
details of the monument, of course,
are inchoate now and will depend
finally, upon the amount of funds
secured for the purpose. The decis-
ion in regard to the monument was
Siade at a meeting of the focal chap-
ter of Daughters last week and r.
committee from Sul Ross camp at-
tended the Daughters' meeting .to
offer the camp's assistance.
it ^ts expected- to raise at least
vZ.OOQ for the purpose, it was stat-
ed Monday. Both subscriptions will
be- solicited over the county and en
tert sin men ts and benefits given by.
the local chapter toward raising that
{amount and already promises of lib-
eral subscriptions have been receiv-
ed, While, as stated, no definite
plans have been formulated, a ma
jority of the members of the chap-,
ter desire a monument bearing an
heroic-sized Confederate infantry
man. •
It is a fact little known that Den-
ton county gave 1200 soldiers to the
Confederate cause, practically ev-
ery able-bodied man in the county
at the time enlisting at one time or
another during the war. And it is
urged that this fact among others
would make a monument to the Con-
federate dead of the county an es-
pecially fitting tribute from the
present-day citizens, the very great
majority of whom are Confederates
or Confederate descendants

The Weather Bureau officials
don't usually work on Sunday, bui
so flrmjy convinced were they that
A cold wave was coming and would
arrive here that night or Monday
morning that they issued a special
bulletin Sunday afterBoon. an-
nouncing that a severe cold wave
was coming with the weather
dropping to 28 degrees by Monday
They must have "got their wires
crossed,” however, and the bulletin
must have been intended for some
other section, as the sudden drop in
the temperature failed to arrive.
A sharp shower of rain fell dur-
ing Sunday night and again Monday
morning and the Bureau bulletin
issued Monday reads:
"Tonight and Tuesday unsettled
weather; local rains today and Tues-
day.”
