A remarkable little deni sen of
tlte deep which belongs to the ia-
teresting border and lying be
tween vertebrates and inverte
brates, is the lancelet. Long con
sidered a fish, It is now regarded
as more nearly related to theses
squirts. Among its many pecul
iarities is the absence of any dis
tinct bead; the position of the

SOUTHW EST
Undoubtedly the pert of thio
prosperous nation, which io grow
ing and prospering moat swiftly
to-day, is the southwest— tbs ra-
gion-whose central field is Okla
homa^ Indian territory and north
Texas, says the Chicago In ter
Ocean.
The story of Oklahoma's trans
formation from an empty cattle
range into a land of blossoming
farms and thriving towns was en
acted in such a startling manner
that it forced public attention.
The beginning of the development
—for only a beginning has been
made, even in Oklahoma— of
other parts of the central south
west was made in a less sensa
tional manner, and it has not re
ceived the public notice that it de
serves.
Thus it was with surprise that
the nation at large learned, when
the “statehood” agitation became
strong a few years ago, that there
were really more than twice a»
many white people as Indians in
Indian territory, and that these,
and the Indians with them, were
doing all the things in the way of
industries, schools and churches
that are done by thriving com
munities in Illinois or Iowa or
Minnesota.
I t was with further surprise
that people who in youth had been
accustomed to think of Texas as a
land largely inaccessible save od
horseback or by wagon, learned
this year that Texas was lending
all the states of the union in -rai'
way mileage, and had puahec
Illinois from the primacy held for
40 years.
These two facts illustrate bow
the southwest is growing, and ha
been growing, almost unseen am'
unheard by the nation's! large
and especially unnoticed by th-
general public in the region of thc
great lakes.
All parts of the American re
pnblic are pros|tering.
Every
where there are chances for youn.
men with the will and charaete-
to graap them. But for men sewk
ing more elbow room, and liking
to see rapid returns for their labor
or their money, there is no place
to day like the prosperous south
west.
