P. Dew- ey's claim to a homestead in early days, when the Cherokee sirip in Northern Oklahoma was opened for settlement by a “run,” second only in importance to the famous land opening of 1889. In 1893 Dewey, his father, and a rother made the run to the home, where he still lives, using a team of fast horses hitched to a spring wagon, and leading a third as a “spare.” Later, a court contest of the claim developed. A neighbor hav- ing seen a pair of mules at the farm and assuming the run was made with the mules, testified in court that mules could mnot have run from Arkansas Cily and ar- rived at the time Dewcy swore he filed his claim. Dewey called a from her farm home in Kansas as a witness the mules | at her home at noon the day of the run, and that they could not have been used in the race. — .ee FILIPINO, INDIAN, WED ' Rudy Del Monte, Filipino, and Mary Williams, Douglas Indian, were married yesterday afternoon United States Commission- e .| exterminate the Tiger.

STRATEGY TAKING SHAPE Charles Michelson, publicity man of the Democratic National Com- mittee, is to return' to committee ‘headquarters soon, after a ‘tour of | duty with NRA; but that doesn't mean the committee is preparing to rush into print. The strategy for the present, it appears, will be to ignore the at- tacks issuing from Republican ! headquarters. Mr. Roosevelt does | not want to give the public ground | for thinking that the current con- | troversy is a dispute between the Democrats and the Republicans. | Tt will be the White House, rath- er than the ocommittes, which speaks for the Administration poli- tically. The effort will be to draw a line between those who support the President’s policies and those who don't, and keep party labels in the background. | AFTER THE TIGER | TIndications of a definife ad- | ministration effort to flatten out Tammany for keeps are accepted among the politicians as about, the most eloguent testimony yet to the boldness and confidence of the Roosevelt regime.
