From the Knights of Pythias.
The following statement signed
by W. H. Cathcart chancellor
commander of-the K. P. lodge at
Boise City appeared in the Daily
Statesman of that city on the 5th
inet.:
"Editor Statesman: Feeling
that it is due to the friends of our
late-brother Arthur H. Cook upon
whom the blow of death has fallen
Bo heavily because of its sudden-
ness and because a shadow has
been cast upon them by reason of
the supposed premeditated self-
destruction I have carefully in-
vestigated tbe circumstances sur-
rounding bis death and am of the.
opinion that it was entirely ac-
cidental. He had sustained an
injury while riding a bicyefe from
which be suffered at times. great
pain and to alleviate this he re-
sorted to the use of morphine.
The fact that he has suffered
coupled with the further fact that
he was found out in tbe country
would lend credencb to the belief
that he realized he bad taken too
much and attempted to antidote
its effect by walking; and being
overcome by the drug died before j
he was discovered. Brother Cook
during the greater part of his stay
in Idaho bore an excellent reputa-
tion and I hereby tender to his:
family and friends the sympathy j
and condolence of Ivanhoe Lodge j
No. 3 K. of P. and bid them rest
with us in the firm belief that his
untimely death was not pre-
meditated but accidental." v
Notwithstanding the choatic and
unsettled condition of affairs in tbe
Cherokee nation and tbe feeling
of uncertainty that surrounds the
title to real estate there never was
a time in Jhe history of Vinita
when its prospects were brighter
than at the present. The univers-
al verdict of those who are In a
position to know is that this is a
remarkably good town. Its geo-
graphical position is peculiarly
good. The political dicisions and
changes that have come and are to
come are to the advantage of Vini-
ta. It stands without a rival in
a field that can never be lessened.
The changes that are soon to come
in the political conditions in the
territory will bring an influx of
capital and of people here that will
be beyond the wildest dreams of
the most enthusiastic our peo-
