HIS POLITICAL SUN HAS
TO RISE NO MORE.
Sad to be said Marshall Nix bos
gone down under a polilcal cloud
from which ho will never emerge.
Mr. Nix is a young man and had
just started his political career and
for tbe department at Washington
to declare him an unfit man to bold
pablio office must be a sourco of
profound re; rot to him but if truo
his decapitation is a small part of his
well earned reward Rsmotnbcr all
men both higu and low that tho way
of the transgressor is hard

Aoain wo have brought to our ntton
tion tbe terminal (suJdeuly) of uu
other of OkUboma'ci eons. Marshal
Nix's bead paS9d under the political
guillotine sud now be is bleeding in the
lapse of a loatfuith. Friends and
others stand aghast with wonder and
snprise at the quick transition and
collapse of this heretofore seemingly
rcdoobtablo meloDr. Yet 'tis true.

patch in a sort of an extraordinary

That Democracy has done badly there
ua bo no question. That it is now on
the broad jatnp aud between tbs devil
and the deep sea as ti where to light
none will deny or dispute That mil
rule and sbadiaesa is now an open
charge laid full at its oansp doors all
admit and that tbo early coming of
Republican caro aud management
of our afl'rirs ia eagorly awaited and
delightfully hailod all agree. How
ever we are for fair play now and
ever and as tho oflioial organ of Okla-
hom's Dstuocraoy charges that suuh

pray that it bo awarded him and
