TMEnAN AND THE DOLLAR.
In the days of Washington, Jefferson and JacKson, even un
to Lincoln, Greely and Sumner, was the honor age of the sil-
ver republic. Then man was held above the dollar. Then it
was a patriot said to England: "As poor as I am, England
has not money enough to buy me." Another said: "America
has thousands for defense, but not one cent for tribute. And
English gold failed to purchase liberty for Andre, but it is
different now. The dollar is placed above the man in this gol-
den monarchy. It is always so when a people become
prosperous. It was so when the Roman E a g I e s
were carried into Jerusalem it was so; whtn Christ drove the
gamblers from his His Father's house of prayer it was so;
when Iscariot betrayed the Sop of Man for thirty pieces of
silver it was so; when I'ilate biased his judgement in the trial
of the Son of God it was so; when the Roman Magistracy en-
slaved the people it was so; in the days of the Grachii it
vvas so; when Prance was plunged into a bloody revolution
it was so in the nineties when the supreme court of the United
States ruled the income-tax unconstitutional And it was
the same spirit that fathered the late Humphrey rulings and
good democrats and honest republicans condemned the U. S.
supreme court in the nineties and Roosevelt criticises the
Humprey decision lately on trusts, and the demjcratie plat-
form of 1896 is being vindicated.

KENTUCK!ANS CONVENT ION.
Last Saturday we, according to previous arrangements and
published call through county press, attended the convention
of Kentueiiians in Chandler and the meeting
of the railroad officials to arrange for rates to visit Louisville
during the "home coming" week of Kentuckians, June llth to
17th inclusive, and the understanding reached Was: that the
Lincoln county Kentuckians combine with other Kentuckians
and to send delegates to the convention to meet on the 16th of
May, to maKe final arrangements for a departure of visitors
to Louisville on the 11th of June from Oklahoma City.
We were more than pleased with our Chandler visit. We
| were made a welcome guest by the railroad officials (mostly
| the Frisco) at their table at the dining halls in the St.
; Cloud Hotel, and a seat in the official car and was com-
I pelled to turn down a warm entertainment at Oklahoma City
las business demanded our immediate attention at home,
j The officials present to meet with our people were: Mr. F.
I E. Clark, Wichita, Kansas, D. vV. A. of the Frisco system of
Kansas and Oklahoma; Mr D. C- Farrington, of OKlahoma
City; H. M. Swank, of Topeka, Kansas, of the Santa Fe; Mr.
M. H. Bone, of Dallas, Texas, of the Southern Railway. Mr.

WARWICK.
V'' V W ' to
On our trip to Chandler we had to kill some time in Warwick,
between trains, and we strolled up town and found a satisfied
aud contented people. S. Moody, in the grocery trade, does
a satisfactory business, has a very good stock and a good
farm near. D. c. Miller runs a grocery store as does Ramsey
& son. Wm-cherry handles dr.ygoods. There is also a fur-
niture store. Dodds & Sellers runs a livery by Mr.'Jas.
c eitham gin and saw mill. The town is favorably
located on the crossing of the Ft. Smith & Western and Fris-
co railroads. The towsite lays level and has elegant water
and is surrounded by a good country. An idea) place for a can-
ning factory. Everything grows profusely.

and literally tore him to pieces, notwithstanding his pleadings
and piteous begging.
