as usual and takes things by
storm Avith his big beaver and
other requisites.
The trip from Muskogee to St.
Louis was made without any-
thing of special interest except
the "crackers" of Arkansas
were very much surprised and
chagrined to see a special car of
"Colored men" passed through
their state on a car not known
as "Jim Crow."
Our boys are in splendid shape
and are proud of the fact that
they; a u from the "Beautiful
Indian Territory. " All the peo-
ple lift their hats to the gentle-
men from the West. AV. A.
Rentie and G. K. Davidson the
bankers are in great glee over
the trip and feel that Greater

ored men of the city who were
enroute to Washington among

pleare concerned. The outfit at
this stage of the game are in
eigh spirits and are feeling that

Mr. McDaniel is one of the
brightest Negroes and one of
the most able in the Indian Ter-
ritory and it is such as lfe who
are making a commendable rec-
ord for the race in our bright
and growing territory. 11. It.
