COM MISSION Eli tollett is en-
forcing the law regarding gam-
bling devices by gathering in all
slot machines in Tahlequah and
Wagoner, and burning them.
Thu owners were fined S100 and
costs which were remitted witli
thi? admonition "Go thou and do
so no more.
"(Government is derived from
th« consent of the governed" is
not hardly always sometimes
trua, but government is only to
be derived from the ballot of the
governed When the governed
of this nation are allowed the
franchise then will they lie jrov
erned by themselves. The other
way to be governed is by a clerk
in the Interior Department.
A message from the Interior
department the first ot the week
to Chief Mayes indicates that all
warrants issued since June 28,
last, are illegal. Under such rul
ingtho High Schools would bo
compelled to close the present
term, which was promptly wired
to the Secretary, who answered
by ordering all the schools to

COURAGE OF BISMARCK.
The n Chancellor \\«« Cool Lven
\ hen IIl«t Life Wua
In Dnniter.
In 1800 liismarck wa* returning
hU home from the palace where he
bad been to see the kill#. While pta
lug through the street called I liter
den Linden, and quite near the place
where lluc-del uikI Nobeling afterward
attempted the life of Emperor William,
he suddenly lieard a shot tired elose be-
hind hill! lie turned sharply around
and saw a young man who, with a
smoking revolver, «u aiming at him.
lie strode up to the man at onee and
seized the arm that held the revolver,
while with the other hand he graaped
Hie throat of the would-be murderer
The latter, however, hnd hod iime to
pass the weapon Into his left hand,
mid now IIred three shots in quick sur
cession. Bismarck felt himself burt
In the shoulder and In one of hi# ribs,
but he held his assailant fast until some
soldiers came up and took hold of him.
Then Hlamnrck walked home nt n
brisk paee, and reached his ow n house
long before anybody t here could know
what had happened. The countess lirwl
some friends with her when bet
husband entered the drawing-room
He greeted all In a friendly mantii
and hpgged to be excused for u tew
minutes as be had some urgent bu-ii-
ness t o attend to. lie then walked Int o
the next room where bis desk stood
and wrote to Inform the king of the
currenee. Having attended to this
duty he returned to the drawing-room
and made one of his little strndlnj? j
jokes.
"Well, are we to have no dinner
to-day.' You always keep me wait-
ing." He sal down and partook
heartily of the dlshrs set before
him, and It was only when the
dinner was over that he walked up
i o the eountes , ki-seil heron the fore-
head, wished her in the old (iermnn
ua\ "Qfiegnete Mahlzelt" (may your
Ill be blessed), and then added:
"You see I am quite well." She looked
up at him. "Well." he continu d. "you
must not be anxiour. my child; seme-
body has fired at me, but It Is notldng,
us you nee."
In 1850, when the tide of political
passion still ran lii^h. after the atorm
of the preceding years, )*e went one
day into a Rathskeller In Berlin to
take a glass of fiunthaler beer; a man
near him, feeling himself supported
by 1 «• presenoe o\* his friends, bepan
too we h member of tbe royal family.
RUi.iarck looked at him and said
quietly:
"If you have not loft this room be-
fore I have finished my berr I'll break
this glaas over your head," which he
proceeded to do according* 10 his prom-
ise, calmly paying for th broken filam
afterward and walking" leisurely oh ay.

EXPECTED A LIVING BURIAL.
Spaniel* Soldier* Taken mt Santiago
Thought American. Were
Barbarians.
There Is no doubt that many of ths
Spaniard* after the battle of Hanliago
believed that the American* would
sboot all captives. A touching story
u. KI Caney that shows 'his feeling
was related by a stuff officer, write*
Urv. I). Henry C. MeCook in the Phila-
delphia Press. After the capture of
ih.* fort that crowned a hill a burial
party under Copt. Allen proceeded to
inter the Spanish dead, which wasdone
by laying them in their own trenches
duff before the earthworks. h> wa*
also done at San Juan. Near by lay a
lad of 17. shot through the hips. A*
ih<* bodies of his comrades were borne
behin. Uini he would turn his head
and f° the sad work w i > 11 horror-
stricki vciumee. Th* ■nerlean
officer obsi-rveo bis face, and, lightly
disci i nil*g his feelings, called un inter-
preter and assured the youthful sol-
di r that uo harm would be done him
"Shall I not be buried alive, along with
my dead comrades?" was the anxious
query.
"No. no! You shall be eared for
presently . and your wminds di. <
and tende'l to an if you were an Amer-
ican."
The youth's face v. as in-tant Iv trans-
formed. His horror was changed to
happiness, his fear to friendship, lie
reached out his hand to Copt. Allen
with profu e thanks, and until he was
taken to the hospital he showed his
gratitude by shaking hands w.th ev -r.\
American who came near. Poor 1 a«I!
And he, too. i« a mother's son, and

the sensation he would create when at
last he returned home laden with gold
and stories from that frozen clime.
Meeting an old friend on the street he
rushed excitedly forward and shook
him warmly by the hand, says the De-

"Just got back." he cried. "Have
you heard the news from K—"
"News?" replied his friend. "Should
any I had! Didn't do a thing to them,

left on the whole island in a month."
The returned Klondiker looked
dazed, but he tried it agnln.
"Talk about gold—"
"Who wants to talk about It?" In-
terrupted his friend. "We've got
enough of It to tarry on the w ar. Why,
man, the war bonds hove been sub-
scribed for several times over!"
The Klondiker gasped and tried an-
other tack.

The press of this Nation gen-
erally has boea hewailiuK, con-
'donining anil criticising the con
dition of affairs here since our
earliest recollection. With few
exceptions, very few, no sug-
gestions or remedies have been
proposed by the newspapers of
the Cherokee Nation for the ex-
isting evils. It has been a per-
petual roast for this or that of-
ficial or editor. Wail after wail
has gone out on account of the
litnentable condition of affairs,
but no antidote is prescribed.
This is indicative of one of two
facts. The editors of this coun-
try are totally unacquainted with
the duties of citizenship, or have
been saturated with the putritiud
state of affairs, which tho.y so
often deplore. "Charity begins
at home," and it is absolutely
necessary to get ourselves right,
know and feel we have done our
whole duty first before censuring
those responsible for the sad
Conditions, without proffering
some relief. Begone withcroak-
erism and pessimism!

Daily at the price of a Weekly. The two papers
each week give the complete news of that week from all |>arts of
the world, so selected and arranged as to preserve the thread of
events from issue to issue. '''ho preparation of NEWS in this
form involves an immense amount of labor and expanse, and com-
prises the most complete and comprehensive NEWS SERVICE ot
any dollar a year publication iu the United States, if not in the
S woild.

literature and the best pictorial illustrations. Its departments
j devoted to "The Home," "For Women," "Agricultural News,"
"The Farm, Garden and Dairy" are oac.li of the highest grade, and
its MARKET REPORTS are correct and complete in every detail.
In -l Word l ho WEEKLY GLOB 0-DEMOCRAT is a complete

There are tragedies that thrill

"Sweet Bye and Bye" that
rings from the eloquent cash
transforms desperation into vic-

THE NEW WAY.
\T7®MEN used
to think " fe-
male diseases "
could only bo
treated aker "k>-
c a 1 examina-
tions" by physi-
cians. Dread of
such treatment
kept thousands of
modest women
slient about their
Buttering. Thein-
_ troductton of
Wine of Cardul has now demon-
strated that nine-tenths of all the
cases of menstrual disorders do
not require a physician's attention
at ail. The simple, pure
IWinwardtt'
taken in the privacy of a woman's
own home insures quick relief and
sp«edy cure. Women need not
hesitate now. Wine of Cardul re-
quires no humiliating examina-
tions for its adoption. It cures any
disease that comcs vnder the head
of "female troubles"—disordered
menses, falling of the womb,
"whites," change of life. It makes
women beautiful by making them
well. It keeps them young by
keeping them healthy, $1.00 at
