A NEW BOOK
Hattie Homer, Kansas aweet
'inger, haa moved lo Chicago, but
her harp haaloet noneofitaavmph-
ny and her songs are a< musical
aa when ahe lived in her prairie
home. H«r last work, lu, itanda
in proof of this, and to ti* poem is
a depth and fulloeaa, almoat irre-
•istable to the lover of the muae.
In her atory of "The Storm" one
M t!.e growing tempem gather
it* foroea; one feels lie blackness,
and the terrilic shock that follow*,
ftia realistic, hut n«#t more so than
the "Ship Wreck" that follow* it.
Mian Uornersdiscriptive powers are
rare and united with her gift from
the gods; ail'orda her ample op o •
tunity to stir the soul of the reader,
to the rvthm of her w< rd$. But Ii A
is n< t all tempest and storm and
wreck, there ia sunshine and ro-
mance and love. It in an idyl of a
life, and ita history. It ia worth
reading and it will be read and ap-
preciated by the general p-ililic.
Her new book will bear the name
oP'Ila" and will contain beside
this work about one hundred snort
er poems, of sentiment, patriotism,
and religion, and will lie plated be-
f ire the public sometime this year.
The domocrat* in Congress arc
now fighting among themselves.
Springer of Illinois and Champ
Clarke of Missouri, attact the south-
ern members .:f their party and ac-
cuse them of all their rouble and
defeat. Poor fellows let them fight
while they have a chance as there
wont be enough of them left after
March 4th to create an ordinary
disturbance.
The present legislative assembly
at Guthrie has already introduced
a resolution memorial to congress
asking the passage of an enabling
act, amending the Oklahoma home-
stead laws so that settlers in the C
and A, Pottawotamic and the Strip
would immediately be lelieved of
the payment of from $1,00 to .$2,50
per acre, for their land. The pres
ent legislature is doing good work
from the htart.
It is said that a woman not a
great wy off' named her twin juris
Gasoline and Kerosene. The old
man's name is Pete Roleum, and
the man who marries in this fam-
ily will undoubtlv strike oil, but it
is intimated that sparking in the
neighborhood will he a dangerous
paatime. It i* reported that a man
named Naptha popped the question
to one of the girls and haa not ben-
zine since.--Ex.
We are in receipt of the B'aine
County Hertld, published at Wa-
tonga, and the name of Geo. Hain-
ey appears as business manager,
which is a sufficient guarantee of
success of the business end. Ceo.
is an old friend of the writer, for
the past three years county e'erk of
his county. He is president of our
Free Home Mission also and has
done mu"h for the settlers in that
line. George is an out and out re-
publican, and we believe 'he Herald
will succed. 'The Herald is a six
column quarto, *i h two home and
six foreign printed pages. Now
lirother Kainey if you will cut off
about six of those foreign and an-
cient p \ges, and get up a little all
home print sheet, your success will
reach vou sooner.

The legislature ia inclined to re-

The special edition, Annual
Sovkrnm, of the Kingfisher Free
Press came to hand this week, and
it is a thing of r eauty. It is print-
ed on book paper and contains cuts
of many individuals, residences.
«nd public buildings, all of which
are well execute 1 and true to life.
The work is one that will redound
to the advantage of Kingfisher in
many ways; it shows 'he prosperity,
the wealth, the schools of learning

tion of the Oklahoma P^ess associa-
tinn which provides that the asso-
ciation "hall meet semi annually,
a meeting is hereby called at Perry
Ok. Saturday, Feb. 9, 1895, for the

It seems now that another extra
session of congress will be neccee-
sary immediately to undo some of
the damnphoolery of the past, and
to give the country a good currency
hi*. Even Cleveland and many
other democrats now see that the
Republican, is the only party
that is capable to handle this
subject.
Lewelling the late governor of
Kansas, recently appointed a dead
man at police commissioner. Just
like a Pop.
Gov. Waite ia now known aa "old
'Blood; BrldlM."
A Democrat stood on the Capital
bluff,
And a tear dropped from hi« eye;
"Ye Gods," he cried, it is devilsh

A Hash Of Good News.
The House Committee of congress i-«
has at last resolved to :eport favor-! '>08®y f"r Under Sheriff'
ably ou • he ratification of the agree- "* ^
ment with Wichita Indians, prep-
aratory to opening that country to
settlement. So far that isexcellent.
Now if the friends of that measure
notably Cur1 is and Flynn, can
succeed in brushing away the ob-
jections and impedimenta that may
come up on the floor of the House,
then we will be all right and the
Wichita Indians will for the first
time have a legal right to homes on
that land. Theset'lers are to pay
for the land at the ra'e of$1,25 per
acre which is to be held by ♦ he gov-
ernment and paid out either to the
Wichltaaor to the Choctaws and
Chickaaaws. On with the good
work.—Minco Minstrel.
Congressman Flynn haB become
aroused by the abandonment of Ft.
Supply and the talked of abandon-
ment of other poeta in the south-
went and in a speech betorethe house
ft few days ago sailed into things
ft9 follows: "The government
spends its millions to build forta to
accommodate these dainty gentle-
men, the leaders of the german and
the waltz, these men who can per-
haps play bigger poker in the east
than they can in the went; and
then after making these large ap-
propriations, erecting buildings, es-
tablishing a system of sewers and a
system of waterworks, the war de-
partment issues an order to have
tho troops removed, and to have
those improvements torn up and
dismantled; and then to cap the
climax they seud us down Geroni-
mo and his bloodthirsty Apaches."
