The probabilities are that iu tlie near
future the officers of the United States
army will take on another designation
of rank, in the shape of a metallic
eagle to be worn on the front of their
hats. The question is under advise-
ment among the head officials of the
war department, aud it is understood
that the project is very favorably re
garded by many of them. Some of the
army officers are urging it on the
ground that in European countries the
officers wear on their hats the colors
of their sovereigns. They hold that it
is a plain and unmistakable evidence
of nationality, as well as of rank and
military service, ami that as the eagle
is the national American emblem, it
can be adopted for the benefit of the
service.
C. E. Perry is closing out bis immense
line of furniture, in order to reduce
stock to such an extent that he will
only need to occupy one room. Until
that end is accomplished, he will sell
furniture at prices uever before heard
of in El Reno. His stock is tho largest
and most elegant in the Territory, and
embraces everything in the furniture
line. *

Comparing the Cleveland era of
"economy ami reform” with the Har-
rison period of “extravagance” (if you
let the democrats tell it), and we find
that the one item and the only one on
which the Cleveland congress made
any cut-down was the item for Uuion
veterans’ pensions. It cut down the
Union veterans’ pensions by oyer $20,-
000,000. Anil the work of cutting them
is still going on. Under the Harrison
administration the public debt was re-
duced by $236,527,000. Under Cleve-
land the public.debt lias been increased
by *162,315,000, aud the annual inter-
est charge by $7,472,000. That is the
fiscal exhibit of the Cleveland era as
compared with its predecessor. And
the losses inflicted by tlie Cleveland
tariff and money legislation on the
general business of the country make
the democrat ie congress just disbanded
the most costly one that ever assem-
bled.—St. Joe Herald
I lie colored voters held a meeting
last night with closed doors It is ru-
mored that Hensley was there md
made an impassioned address, setting
forth the benefits which he would be-
stow upon them in case of his election.

latest improved power clipping ma-
chines and will clip horses for anyone

By abusing Hahn Hensley hopes to
make that gentleman’s friends slick
closer to him. Hensley knows that
every vote east for Hahn means one
vole less for Caldwell.
the tirst words the soldier said,after
meeting with an irresistible force, last
night, were, “Where is he!”’— and he
had no reference to the club of that
name, either.
Hensley and most »f his supporters
petitioned Hahn to run, hoping that
he would divide Caldwell s vote, and
give Hensley a possible show.
James Doss is slowly recovering
from his wounds, aud it is now consid-
ered almost certain that he will pull
