VINITA. I. T. JUNE 7 11)00.
It is estimated by Davis Hill's
friends that it cost Hill and his
coterie from $125 to $150 to get
his 21(5 votes in the Vinita demo-
crnticlclub. ReBtaurant bills- livery
hire and money spent to get the
mortgagees of the Vinila National
bank in from the country nre(
among the items of expense. The
Leader says "the people are find-
ing out who Hill is what manner
of man he is & etc." ' Yes this is
true and they have become asham-
ed of him in several instances and
have cancelled their endorsements
of him. Pryor' Creek found him
oul and found that he suffered his
henchmen to grossly misrepresent
the club aijd they cancelled his
endorsement and instructed for
Reynolds. Welch found him out
along the same lire and cancelled
him. What can (be rest of the
Cherokee nation expect from Davis
Hill in the way of patronage when
he has already premised every
thing from country postmaster up
in the event of national democratic
success lo his workers? A man
with a complete elate is not in a
position to keep any one but his
immediate friends. Reciprocity
is republican doctrine but .the
man with a slate is hardly able to
reciprocate. i
The following extract is taken j
from a letter to Preston S. Davis j
from a life long democrat living in

home of Mr. Davis. The letter is ;
