Little Elizabeth Speneer the li
year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
A. N. Spencer, formerly of Yukon
but now of Kausasa City, died a
few days ago with Pneumonia.
Their friends in Yukon and vicinity
will sympathize with them in their
bereavement.
Just as soon as the line cati be

Telephonic connection with K. C.
The Missouri & Kansas Tele-
phone Co. has shipped the poles
and wire for the line extension
from Guthrie to Arkansas City,
The company is also building
from Newton to Emporia when
these two gaps are completed
there will be a continous line to
Kansas City.
The poles and wire have also
been shippd for the line from Ok.
City to Shawnee and Tecumseh.
These lines are great benefit
to the whole sale trade-
The El lteno Globe takes the
proper course in protesting against
the brow-beating of juries by the
presiding judge. Such a course,
while not a violation of the letter
of the law perhaps, is a violation of
its spirit. If a presiding judge has
reason to suspect that a jury has
been tampered with he should in-
struct the grand jury to inquire in-
to the matter. If he has no
grounds for such belief be should
keep his convictions to liimsif for
lie has no right to besmirch a juror
with insinuations.—T. J.

Is clones the Best /Han
It is out thatC. G. Jones of Ok.
City, is making a quiet but de-
termined hunt to capture the
speakership of the Fifth legisla-
tive assembly aud is being back-
ed in his work by the Frisco rail-
road and Oklahoma City boomers.
Mr. Jones himself admit be is the
“best man elected to the legisla-
ture and will see that Oklahoma
City does not suffer this time.”
Since Mr. Jones shall refuse to
enter a speakership caucus it is
fair to presume that his collea-
gues will have something to say
as to is the “best man.”—Leader
LbeEl Reno News says: “that the
democrats are resting on their oars.
They see the republicans are having
an inning and that the prospects are
that it will be a long one.”
True, the republicans are having
an inning now, but it is their last
half, ami two years hence they will
take the field, with a “goose-egg”
and the democrats will proceed to
score.
The recent rains have so washed
the newly raised Santa Fe track
between Edmond and Oklahoma
City, that the trains are allowed
a very slow rate, for fear of acci-
dent.
