ten yours old and rememl>er hearing;
the old woman cry inn as she '•ara-a -to
our house. Her feet were badly swol-
len. Tho two boys were on .1 lialf-
otarved pony which she led with a
hickory rope fastened around Its low-
er jaw. The old woman's grandson
told my father that he intended to Kill
white men as "long as he lived, and he
did it. He was known afterward us
'B.'loxl John.'
HOLD LAND FOR A FORT.
"My father sold the federal govern-
ment the four square miles of land on
which Fort Washita was established.
I was about S> years old wh?n the sol-
diers (ame. The fort was occupied
until ihe eivll war began when it was
abandoned, and the Cherokee burned
most of the buildings. The soldiers
w?ro "avalrymen and the first came
from Fort. Leavenworth. At tho be-
ginning there wepe three or four troops
but finally only troops I and C of tho
First cavalry. My father sold his log
house to the government. It was
moved to the fort and occupied as

complexion. He was fond of children

beneath the green of the new season.
High up against the tall green cliffs
that look down upon the Washita aru
tiny white and pink clouds of blos-
soming dogwood and redbud. In this
quiet April weather along the Wash-
ita the crowing of a cock at a distant
farmyard, the tinkling of a bell or
the lowing of a cow in tho timbered
bottom land seem as remote as the
murmur of waters upon the shore ot
some island in the far Pacific. The
blue haze that dims tht horizon aids
the afney in suggesting that just be-
yond there' lies perhaps an unknown
country.
The sentimental traveler in this re-
gion inevitably grows pensive. Men
have dived a long life and died fiinco
the first white settlement was made
here. Now a great change is at hand
in the breaking Tip of these primitive
° ante-bellum communities to make way
for a new form of government. The
gray haired men and women here talk
of the old days,^nd in"heir reminis-
& ccnces is always a tone of sadness.
WASHITA'S FIRST HOME.
The first home on the Washita was
built near the site of the old fort. Mrs.
Jane Jussie, whose father built the
house, is a citizen of tills place. Mrs.
0 Jussie has Chickasaw blood in her
violin,°but her Irish ancestry stamp-
ed Itself so firmly upon her that her
•Celtic features, her wit and even in
slight* accents are unmistakable. Mrs.
Jussie lives alone In hfr widowhood
and with means sufficient to maintain
her in comfort. She was born In Mis-
> Blsslppl about 71 years ago. She en-
joys telling of her early experiences
in the Indian country.
"My father, James McLaughlin, was
interpreter for the Chickasaws when
the tribe lived in Mississippi," said
IMrs. Jussie. "His father came to
Aiufilca from Ireland at tho age of
]4 and settled among tho Chickasaws.
I was about 4 years old when I came to
the Indian Territory with my parents
That must have been about 1837. Wo
had no saw mill and my father hewed
logs for his house whieh be built
on land now farmed by "Do*-" Thomp-
son "near the town of Bee Mv father
owned twenty slaves and efrflivated r.
hig farm. He died about eight year'
before the war.
The land was a wilderness, and we
were often in fear og hostilt Indians,
especially the warlike Kiowa^and Co-
manches who lived west^pf us. Tho
buffalo had moved from our locality
to tho Wichita mountains, but every-
where wore heapt^ of fresh buffalo
bones. Bears, jmnthers, cougars,
wolves and wild cats were plentiful.
The cliffs along tho Washita gave them
almost inaccessible dens. Deer went in
droves. Turkeys, partridges and prai
Tie chicken could be killed anywhere
In those days there were many paro-
quets along the Washita. They dis- I
appeared years ago.
INDIANS WERE ROBBERS. ©
"The settlement suffered consider-
ably from thelving raids by Kiowas
and Comanches. • My father, who
traded among them. Induced these
tribes to attend the council at Boil-
ing Springs, where a treaty was made
and the peace pipe smoked. They came
once and stole practically all our live
stock. On our corral they painted
red pictures of the horses, with their
brands marked, and then the picture
of an Indian leading the horses away
) with his bow drawn, as if shooting at
somebody behind him. We knew only
too well what it meant, which was
that if anybody pursued the thieves
) he would be killed. TheoTonkawas
would come out and camp near us for
^months at a time and wore a great
nuisance. Tho Klckapoos and Dela-
wares brought deer hides and bear oil
to the traders after Fort Washita was
* established. The children at home
were often badly frightened by theoln-
dians. The latter wore always In
paint and feathers and when they camo
to our house they would come yelling
and riding as fast as their horses could
run. The first time we saw the Kleka-
poos the children ran under the bed.
My mother gave away all my father's*
tobacco to get rid of the Kickapoos.
"All tho devilment in the country
was not due to Indians, as this Inci-
dent will show: Tho 'Billookchees'
O Hived at Burneyville. At Preston's
Bend, across Red river in Texas, was
a white settlement. The white men
told these Indians that if they would
come to Preston's Bend they would be
given a lot of corn. About 1ft Indians
went anil campod on the norti side
of the river in tho Chickasaw coun-
try. The whites crossed the river, sur-
prised the Indians and killed all of
them except an old woman an J two
boys, one of whom was her grandson.

OKLAHOMA RESCUE HOME
Washington, April 2S.—Democratic,
leaders who were regular In two cam-
paigns, when a sufficiently large per
cent of the party deserted to twice vote
for McKintey, received another Jolt to-
day in the revival of a boom for Mai-
sliall Field of Chicago lor second place
the ticket. The story came front
New York that the Parker managers
had looked with favor on the proposi-
tion to name the big Chicago merchant
for vice president.
However attractive the suggestion
may appear to Mr. Hill, Mr. McCar-
ren and Mr. Belmont of New ^ ork,
it. failed to make a hit In Washington.
Practically the entire mlimrity mem-
bership in the house and senate is
composed of democrats who remained
loyal to the organization In 1896 and
1900. These politicians do not care
for Bryan. They encouraged, rather
than sought to prevent, a movement
which would sidet rack him at St. Ixm-
ls in 1H04. Furthermore, they were
willing to accept anybody who would
assist in cheeking the Hearst move J
ment. Accordingly they made a mad
rush for the Parker camp with u r
suit which they hardly anticipated.
Within the past few days they
have been brought face to face with a
party condition which threatens to
eliminate the mass factors along with
Hearst and Bryan. The cohorts of
gold are impressed with the Idea that
the Bryan organization is prepared to
step aside and turn the management
of the party over to the reorganized.
In consequence there is some ayiite
thinking doing around the national
capitol.

It w one thing to countenance the
Parker movement, but entirely another
to permit Mr. Parker's management
to formulate ajdatform and name the

Some of the southerners already havo
begun to talk about a candidate south

To simply Ignore the money question
will not satisfy them.
GorA&n, who understands the demo-
cratic masses better than the New
Yorkers, has at once become busy,
The hope of Gorman, Stone, and the
score or more of house democrats who
represent constituents which are not
prepared to unite with the advocates
of commercialism, is to prevent in-
structions for Parker In the states
which are soon to hold conventions.
With a fair field of uninstructed dele-
gates a compromise in tho platform
may yet be forced.
It. Is apparent that a platform which
will be thoroughly acceptable to New
Yor kand Connecticut wll never do
In Missouri and Kentucky. Nobody Is
giving thought to results west of the
Missouri river, but it is impossible to
abandon either Ktfhtucky or'Missouri
rl with any hope of success, even
though Illinois be captured through
purchase. An appeal to mote slowly
went forth from the democratic pol-
iticians in Washington today.
A BOLT THREATENED.
A senator, in discuslng the con-
dition which now presented itself,
said: "It seems Impossible to get the
•ast to have any comprehension of
the democratic situation In the central
west. It is true enough that the south
will fall Into line and support a dem-
icratic candidate on almost any kind
of a platform. But there are thousands
of Brvaniles in IllAols, Missouri. In-
diana and Kentucky who cannot lie
made to wallow a too nauseating pill.
These democrats would not stand on
open bolt from Bryan. They will de
maud that he make concesions tyr tin
sake of party harmony. But to ask
them to Support a candidate about
whom they know practically nothing,
with a man for second place who con-
tributed money for McKlnley's elec-
tion, the twff running on a platform
which repudiates what they have been
taught to believe is sound democracy,
is 'Idiotic.
"The democratic voters who follow-
ed the flag In the last, two campaigns
are willing to make concessions. But
trfere is a point beyond which they
can't be nriven without revolt. The
limit is reached with Parker and a
conservative platform. More than that
bolt." ••

"Washington, April 23.—"Tho growth
of socialism will bo the great surprise
t® both parties during the coming cam-
paign," said Wilbur Wakeman, head of
tho American protective association,
who is hero to call upon the president,
Mr. Wakeman ha i nut In .1 • ciontlfto
study of political and social conditions
in this country for a number of years. >
He has some rather startling conclu-
sions. which he has brought to Wash-
ington and which I10 tolls the leaders
if his party wt*re dtveloped through tho
tvork of investigation of tho association
it' which he is tho head. The asso-
iatlon sought to sound sentiment
throughout the country on tho question
>f protection, and becauso of the agi-
tation of the tariff question, and tha
popular belief that most of tho senti-
ment In favor of tariff rovlslon in con- /
fined to the northwest, it was In that
particular part of the country that in- 0
quiries weio made.
The Investigation was conducted©
through the medium ot "first voters*
bureaus." The most unique Inquiries
were made in Oregon. Tho occasion
for this Is a most natural one. Oregon
holds lior election in Jonc, and as It
will be the first of the state elections,
it was the desire of the association to
sound the sentiment there, so that It
could •be ascertained whether or not
there Is to he a great, political upheav-
al. It was also desired to sound tho
sentiment there because of the possible
view that would be taken J hat the Ore-
gon elections would be an index tu
the results in other slates.
The discovery that most surprised
the#lnvestlgators was that the slate is
honeycombed with socialism. Turning
from that state to a general survey of
Ihe country, the growth of the move-
ment Is particularly noticeable In all
of the larger cities. Recently in Mil-
waukee the socialists polled almost as
many votes as the republicans, and
there were five times as many socialists
votes as there had been in the previous
election. In Chicago tho growth of
socialism Is shown bv the recent ov-
erwhelming voto li* favor of the pub-
ic ownership of the street railways.
One 0% the leading republican polltl- 1
lans of the .state of Illinois, wMUf
asked about, tho claims of tho detm>-«\
rats that Illinois would be a doubtful J
latf In tho coming general election,*'
said: "The only tiling that makes lt'v i
doubtful is the possible attitude of tho
lalista In Chicago. Tho <kmocrata r )
are not bothering us at all." ^0 went
on to explain that the labor element*
In the city Is showing signs of greatV A
dlssiBisfactlon, and without Indicating
what the occasion for it is. If they cell
tered their dissatisfaction about any*
one particular crmdltion or Issue tho
old parties would bs able to deal with ,
It, just as they aro prepared to deal 1
with anything which Is tangible.
Now, the only movement that, seems
to have any deflnlteness is tho demand
which tlui labor element ffpma bent 011
making that®the candidates for all
offices will pledge thmslvs to support
public owncfthlp of public utilities. ,
This will be a hard pill for some of tho
old conservatives to swallow, and will
show that behindKhe unrest and dis-
satisfaction there Is the leaven of so-
cialism. The study which has#heea
made of the question will bo of value
to the republican national committee,
which will take up the matter of de-
vising way* and means of ns-et^ng thi*
growth of sentiment as scion as it is
organized and after tho (rhiAgo con-°
ventlon.
