ARDMORE SUNDAY NOV. 22.
Marietta should by all means
be given a deputy marshal.
Justice and a proper enforce-
ment of the law demand it.
Two weeks from .tomorrow
congress will meet. Two weeks
from the same day the Indian
Territory non-citizens should
have an able representative on
the ground.
President Cleveland is hard
at work on his forthcoming
message to congress. This will
most likely be the last public
document he will euer address
to the lawmakers of the United
States.
Henry M. Stanley the noted
African explorer is said to be
fast turning to a negro the re
sult of . having the blood of a
native African transfused into
his system. In his travels he
took that precaution to escape
the terrible fatal fevers for
which certain portions of that
country are noted. He escaped
the fever but as a reward for
his precautionary methods he is
changing color and seems des
tined to become a full-blood
legro.
Our republican friends real
lze the fact that they cannot
hope for any of the local court
offices on anything except po-
litical grounds. They know
that the officials of our courts
have been so zealous and hon-
est in the discharge of their
duties that no charge can be
brought against them except
they are democrats no shadow
exists upon which to hang a
claim for their dismissal. It
remains to be seen whether or
not the swift removals for par-
tisan causes hoped for by the
-ravenous pie hunters will take
place but it is likely that it will
be some time before any changes
are made here. There are so
many more important offices to
fill and the clamor will be so
great that it will prolmbly be
some time before the weak
voice the territory case will be
heard in the proper circles.
Purcell Register.
The Dawes Commission.
The Dawes commission has been
in the city since Tuesday in eon-
saltation with delegates f ron the
five civilized Tribes about matters
peitaining to the interests of the
Indians. Although the meeting
was held at the instance of the
Choc taws alone prominent mem
bers of the other Tribes have been
present all of whom are taking
pcrj iri the deliberations.
Owing to the fact that the meet-
ings are being held behind closed
doors we are not able to give the
details of any thing which has been
done but we understand that mat-
ters are progressing satisfactorily
to all parties concerned. Fort

SHOOTING AFFRAY.
W. C. aa Claude waablagtae Snpnnacs
Principal la a Street Dael at
Marietta Last Night.
Special to the Ardmorkitk.
Marietta I. T. Nov. 21 To
night after dark there occurred
op the principal corner a duel.
but owing to the darkness neith-
er ot tne principals can ue
located but they are thought to
be Claude Washington on one
side and Henry Foster or V.
C. Washington on the other.
Foster is accused of hav-
ing stolen cattle from Jerry
Washington father of Claude
Washington one of the suj-
posed duelists. W. C. Washing-
ton Claude's uncle went to
Ardmore today and made bond
for Foster which action enrag-
ed Claude. It is not known
whether or not either of the
principals was hurt but two
innocen t bystanders were struck
by flying missiles. Will Gore
got an ugly wound in the thigh
from which a forty-five sjent
ball has been extracted. He
may recover. James Barnett
the other was wounded in the
necK but nothing serious.
Later At 10 o'clock last
night Conductor Allen passed
through Ardmore. He was in
Marietta when tire shooting oc-
curred leaving there after 0
o'clock. From him it was
learned that hopes for the re
covery of Gore had been aban
doned. An artery was cut and
he was fast bleeding to death in
spite of all the efforts to check
the flow. Dr. Bogie of this
city happened to be in Marietta
but m the absence of Ins instru
ment case he could not catch
the severed aretery. Mr. Allen
further said that excitement
was high.
DEPOT ROBBED.
Bold Bad Burglars Make a Successful
Raid at Wynneweod Last Friday
Night No Positive Clue.
Special to the Ardmoreite.
Wymiewood I. T. Nov.
The depot at this plac
broken into last night and
cash drawer robbed of
21.
was
the
an
amount of money. Entrance
was affected by breaking the
glass over the window latch
which when uufastened the
window was easily raised. The
robbery was committed between
the hours of 8 p. m. and 1 a.
m. and was discovered when
the agent went to meet the
north bound passenger train at
the latter hour. It is thought
the parties to the robbery were
acquainted with the fact that no
one stays in the depot at night
only to meet the passenger
trains. Further than this sus-
picion there is no clue to the
perpetrators.
TWO OPINIONS.
The Guthrie Leader says there
is plenty of gold in the Wichita
mountains as will be seen by
the following:
"J. W. Haines a Texas cat-
tleman who came in from the
Kiowa and Comanche reserva-
tions reports that prosiectors
in the W ichita mountains have
struck several rich finds within
the last ten days. He says that
one party of three have easily
worked claims in a ravine where
they are taking out $100 and
$150 per day in free gold. An-
other party has discovered
tracer of mines formerly work-
ed by the Indian police who
will undoubtedly attempt to
drive all the prospectors out."
The Territorial News of Mar-
low is equally positive it's all a
humbug. The News says:
"The gold fields of the Wich
ita mountains are attracting
considerable attention again
I-.- J 1a aI Ml a
ami no uouot mere win be a
grand rush for the mountains
pretty soon. If the pieces of
ore which were shown us this
week are a sample of the best
gold producing ores we would
advise our readers to let those
gold fields severely alone."
INDIAN TERRITORY.
What Ageet Wlseoas T a lake nf the Sit-
atlea Believes Attntsscnt Win Cease
Seea - Delegate te Ceafresa.
Washington Nov. 21. The
good effects from tho recent
elections in the Chickasaw and
Choctaw Indian nations in the
Indian Territory which result
ed favorably to the friends of
allotment was predicted in his
annual report made to the In-
dian bureau by Agent Wisdom
in charge of union agency em-
bracing the five civilized tribes.
He says the results cannot do
otherwise than materially affect
public sentiment in the other
tribes all of them heretofore
having stood solid against the
allotment of their lands.
A similar result it is predict-
ed could be obtained in the
Cherokee nation if a fair vote
could be had and the full bloods
allowed to express their wishes
and sentiments at the polls.
Agent Wisdom says that many
people in the Indian Territory
both citizens and non-citizens
now advocate the election of a
delegate to congress who could
properly explain the existing
conditions and secure remedial
legislation.
This question will doubtless
be presented to the next con-
gress. The report arraigns the
action of past congresses.
MARKET LETTER
Furnished tbel Ardmoreite Dally Br H.
A B. Beer of New Orlcaaa Aa Inter-
esting Cettea Statement.
Thursday Nov. ID '0u
Dear Sir The break in the
American markets yesterday
was fully resio.ided to by Liv-
erpool yet in the face of this
our market opened 1 ioint high-
er. Later the heavy port re
ceipts as well as the large esti
mates of receipts for tomorrow
here and at Houston soon in-
ilueuoed prices adversely
which caused a decline of 11
points from the top. When the
market was swept of all cheap
offerings sellers became scarce
and as some outside buyiug or
ders came in about that time a
reaction of 0 points was estab
lished thereby reducing the net
loss on the day about 1 point.
There seems to be no eager
ness shown by exiorters to take
hold and as long as the move-
ment indicates no diminution
the chances are they will re
main apathetic. Therefore al
though a reaction should be in
order it is questionable whether
it will be icrmanent even If
realized consequently we think
well of buying only on very
sharp declines.
Yours very truly
II. & B. Beeu.
Cured by a Miracle.
A most remarkable case of heal
ing occurred yesterday at the
holiness meeting in this city con-
ducted by Rev. Kogers of Texas
Miss Ella Dugan a resident of
Shawnee who is visiting Mrs. V
D. Kenyon has from paralysis
been nnable to walk without as-
sistance for over three years
Several cures of complaints similar
to hers have been made at the
holiness meeting and she concluded
to attend.
Yesterday she attended having
to be lifted in an ont of the buggy
which she came in. The holiness
believers anointed and prayed over
the young lady and strange to
say. she arose and waited. After
the meeting she walked down
flight of fctairs and entered ' the
buggy without any assistance1 and
continues to have the fre use of
her limbs.
Miss Dugan is overjoyed at the
result and the cure does border on
the miracnloaa. Oklahoman.
