the state of Kansas.
Owing to this fact ami the ineinbe >
not having returned at tin* time set
for the convening of the two brunches,
there was n< session of either house
today. . 4.
There is some justilication for the
visit of members to Topeka. It is
probable that they may influence the
senator to be elected from Kansas in
the line of statehood for Oklahoma.
► If the absent members an do any-
thing in this direction the visit to
Kansas they have made may be of ulti-
mate practical benefit.
The members of both houses will be
on decW tomorrow.
Adjournment was had until i«

The attorney general lias under con-
sideration a plan to reduce the num-
ber of places of holding I nited States
I court in Oklahoma. At present court
, is held at twenty-two places, and it is
! proposed i* cut the nuinber to five.
Tve idea is to place courts at King-
fisher. El Reno, Oklahoma City, Gutli-
! rie and Perry. This d« es uot contem-
plate a change in territorial courts.
The plan i understood to be endorsed
by the Oklahoma justices, ami it is be-
lieved that their intluenct will be suf-
ficient to induce the attorney general
to recommend the change.

A delegation of Quapaw Indians from
the Indian Territory, including Tall
Ciiief and Abraham, had a conference
today with Commissioner of Indian
Affairs ltrowning. They wanted the
allotment of their lands in severalty
and asUcd the commissioner to allow
them acres each, instead of the
usual eighty acre individual allotment.
The (.hiapaws have already allotted
the lauds among themselves on a 2(H)
acre basis and the object of their con-
ference with the department is to se-
cure the confirmation of their action
by the government.

of the department of justice sent here
to enquire into su 'h matters as he can
tf,.t hold of relating to the judicial do*
ings of Judge Henry Scott, whose
strange record as a justice of the su-

being overhauled.
Mr. Newton has so carried himself
since his arrival in the city that he has
passed unsuspected of being an in-

ant I nited States attorney for that

Washington, .Ian. il.— i Special, j
Delegate Flynn introduced a bill Fri-
day to create a board to handle the
land oftlce business. The commission
is to be composed of three aien,no two
of whom shall belong to the same po-
litical party, at $4,000 per year each.
It shall be their duty to pass on cases
where an appeal is taken from the de-
cision of the commissioner of the gen-
eral land office. The plan was favored
by Secretary Smith in his annual re-
port. The secretary besides has indi-
cated to many that he could not do
the business in this line, and as much
of it comes from the people of Oklaho-
ma, it was concluded that it would be
well to have something done with the
hope of having some land office busi-
ness transacted. The neglect of the
secretary to attend to this sort of busi-
ness has caused many parties involved
in land cases in Oklahoma to insti-
tute appeals for the reasop that this
would insure a delay possibly to the
«nd of the administration. All former
secretaries have been equal to the task
of looking after the land office busi-
neess as well as other matters, but Mr.
Smith announces officially his inabili-
ty to do this, and it is concluded that j Thk most abject confession of impo-
it would be well _L>r the government' tence ever heard in the politics of this

The Murderer of PoMtottfce Inspector Mc-

(it'thitiK, Okla.. Jan. T2.—|Special. |
Word came from Kansas City that
the notorious Hill Adler who killed
l'ostoftice Inspector Jim McClure in
that city during the parade of the
Priests of l*allas last fall, has been
admitted to bail in the sum of *v,0<mi.
The judge before whom the matter
was argued took occasion to say that
the charge of murder in the first degree
upon which Adler was held was too
severe and granted bail. The state,iu
the argument presented, virtually ad-
mitted that a verdict of manslaughter
was the most they hoped to get.
Mr McClure was here f fr quite a
while and made a large number of
friends during his stay.

One of the most disastrous tire* ever
known here swept out the entire half
block in the business portion of the
city. Caton's marble works, the
largest in Cowley county, were totally
destroyed, besides two livery stables
containing valuable horses, Reed's im-
plement house and other smaller
buildings. The Haines spread to the
Christian church, almost totally de-
stroying it. Loss is estimated at
$110,000 to **>0,000: small insurance.

day to the Hank of Kildare, The cap-

The fore part of this week wouid
have been a bad time for the Cooks to i
have struck (Juthrie. Senator l-'e;*in
introduced a bill cutting down !
sheriffs' fees and as soon as it was [
heard of every sheriff iu the territory
went down to see about it. The fees
in this territory are about one-half as I
much as in Kansas and where the!
sheriff 's office is properly run the fees I
are not too high.
El Reno Globe: A citizen of Canad-!
ian county, who has been visiting '
friends back east stated that while
there some one sent him an Oklah una |
paper. He said that upon looking inat ■
paper over he found so many lies and |
stories of theft and robberies having |
been committed by our officials that he ,
promptly hjrned it up without letting
anyone see it.
The unenviable notoriety this terri-
ritory has gained abroad for lawless-
ness arises from the fact it has
within its border a few correspondents
and newspapers who publish any sen-
sational news that they can hear or in-
vent without regard to the truth.
nSE ITEM OF EX PEXSE.
The addition of sioo.ooo.ooo to the
national debt within ten months is a
fail" sauiple of a free trade "object les-
abn." It is a condition" that con-
fronts the people, not "a theory."
This addition of debt during ten
months of a free trade administration
is at the rate of fio.ooo.ooo a month.
It has cost the people during
each and everyone of the too days in
these ten months to pay for the privi-
ilege of threatening protection. It
has cost the country almost M during
every second of the ten months. T^iis
is only the cost to the people, as rep-
resented by the actual increase in the
national debt in the sum of almost
during every second of the ten months:
over * ' lo duriug every minute: *1.1,000
every hour, and :t:u every day of
that time. The cont of a course of
a course of lectures delivered by a Buf-
falo lawyer and a West Virginia col-
lege professor is certainly more than
it la worth and very much more than
the present generation of people will
ever pay again.
Sr. .lost- en (iazette: The terrible
loss of life at the great tire at Butte,
Mont . was caused by the explosion of
carloadt of giant powder stored within
the city limits contrary to law. The
laws on (hat point were very stringent
but they were not enforced, and to the
negligence of the officials is due the
calamity whi h has brought death
into so many homes. The people who
would iake such grave chat re
nntnerous in every coinmun ami
they will evade the laws whenever
they are permitted to do so. In the
Hutte ease the violation was flagrant.
Tpk president glorifies the policy
which encourages imports. Every-
thing imported to take the place of
something we can produce in this
country takes that much from the la-
bo. of the country and by that much
impairs the national wealth. The
president and the politicians of his
party are unable to appreciate this,
but the people have come to under-
stand it. and their improved under-
standing accounts for the landslide of

do nothing to help them to further
legislation. Why on earth should
they? Their party has overturned the
republican policies that it found in
operation: part of them, like the reci-
procity treaties, for mere vindicitive-
ness. It still has control of every
branch of the government. What does
it want "help"' for?
TECUMSEH TAKINGS
Tk< i mskh. Ok.. Jan. ?0.—|Special
Correspondence. | Being somewhat in-
disposed. I have not been out much to
get the news, but such as 1 have I
hereby chronicle. On Thursday at 1
p. m. orders were given the graders
on the railroad in Shawnee to quit
work—and since then all is quiet on
the proposed road via Shawnee. Our
people have secured most of the right-
of-way on the old survey from l>ale to
the Seminole line. The people of
Dale are much incensed at oklahoma
City's attitude toward Tecumseh and
will resent it when the proper time
comes to do it most effectively.
Tecum sell's business was above nor-
mal yesterday. The fine weather the
past week gave our mechanics a good
chance to push-their work and several
new houses have been ' raised."
The pops are giving their defeated
candidates deputyships to pay them
for losses incurred and have been so
economical as to give the county print-
ing to the highest bidder.
II. II. McKee, the manager of the
Carey-Lombard Lumber Co. here, died
last Tuesday evening from a paralytic
stroke, after nearly a year's sickness.
He was a member of the K. of P. or-
der. in good standing. His body was
takeu to Nebraska for burial.
Miss Nellie Moyle. a daughter of the
Hon. J. W. Moyle, was married on
Tuesday evening to Mr. J. S. Mills, of
Shawnee.
The Tecumseh normal school has
sixty-five pupils. Prof. E. I*. Davis
has lately been added to the faculty of
this institution.
J. II. llebard is now the sole propri-
etor of the Tecumseh Herald
Our young blonde attorney attempt-
ed to elope "vitli a certain brunette
beauty, but while driving furiously to
get away from the irate mother and
brothers the buggy was demolished
by coming in contact with a tree, and
the young lady is now in the tender
care of her ma, while the young man
nurses numerous bruises iii attition to
the damage sustained to his heart.
Mrs. Dr. Camp, Tuesday evening
while in a lit of melancholy,' took mor-
phine. but prompt medical aid saved
lier life.
A small house iu the northeast part
of town was burned Friday evening,
leaving a colored family without a
home.
When one has read the above, a
vague, undefined feeling of regret
steals over one that is wholly unac-
countable. It is just barely possible
that the second line is delusive, and
expresses a desirable state of affairs
that has not been fully realized. Still
one is not quite certain that is it.
"It is not too late." Mr. Cleveland is
reported to have said this week, "for
congress to do something" for the re-
lief of the country. To which the
New York World adds: "There is pos-
sibly time enough, but there is appar-
ently a hopeless lack of constructive
statesmanship, of party cohesion, of
patriotic principle." This seems to
cover the case with accuracy and elo-
quence.
It appears that Senators Hill and
Gorman each regard the other as
guilty of party perfidy and party dis-
honor. whose treason, like a poison
blight, comes o'er the councils of the
brave and blasts them in the hour of
might. Though the contention be
what it may, let the battle .rage.
Whatever is left of the democratic
party should be permitted to destroy
itself.
