Speeches Mads.
A STRONG gathering of the de-
mocracy assembled last night in
the district court room to take
action in relation to the antici-
pated course of Secretary Smith of
sendiug into this territory "oarpet-
baggers" to fill the offices that will
soon be vacated.
Mr. J. M. Crowes was called to the
chair. Judge Sohnell moved that a
committee of seven be appointed on
resolutions. The following named gen-
tlemen were selected by the chair: Col.
Sohnell, A. G. C. Bierer, Joseph
Wisby, G. S. Cunningham, Col.
Snyder, John Calvert and James
Dooley. Goneral Jamison waa added to
the committee. After the committee
retired Major MaoNamara, by request,
drafted and presented the following
resolution:
Resolved, That the thanks of the
democrats of Guthrie be tendered to
Hon. K. 1). Green, chief justice of the
territory, for bis courtesy in allowing
the use of the court room for the pur-
posea of their meeting, and yielding it
ap, as be did tolils own ineonvenienee,
we esteem it a favor to be appreciated,
especially when it is considered on what
side of the house he sits.
On motion the resolution was passed
unanimously.
Mr. J. A. Sampsel was then called
upon and briefly addressed the as-
sembly.
The committee on resolution now re-
turned snd offered the resolutions that
were passed at the meeting of Thursday
night and printed in The News of Fri-
day, to whioh was added the following:
"The democrats of tho city of Guthrie
and Logan county, in mass meeting
assembled, do hornby endorse snd
affirm the resolutions that were
passed in the democratic meoting
held here last night and wired the sec-
retary of the iuterior and sssert that
we aro unalterably opposed to tho ap-
pointment of non-rcsidentB to any
federal office to be filled bv the admin-
istration in thiB territory."
A number of gentlemen spoke to the
resolutions, whioh passed unanimously.
Major MaoNamara read the following
from the "Kingflahor Times," and it
was ordered to be sent with the reso-
lutions to the president:
"The appointment of Mr. Landrum, of
Ocorgia, as shairinau of the board of
townsite commissioners at Guthrie is a
slap in the face to every aspiriuir Okla-
homau and smashes the home rule plank
in the democratic platform. The job Is
only for two wcoks, however, anil it is to
be hoped that Mr. Laudrum will have
innre judgment than to accept it. The
people here are capable of self govern-
ment and tliey know it. They invite
immigration, but do not want the kind
who simply com.' here to hold office. If
they cannot come here without llrst pro-
curing a commission, let themstuy away,
Is the sentiment of every honest Oklu-
lioinan. Those who do so run only sub-
ject themselves to the contempt of the
republicans and the hatred of the demo-
crats. If the secretary of the interior
has any political enemies whom he desires
to be politically dead anil damned for
ever, let him send them to Oklahoma
with commissions in their pockets."
On motion, the resolutions were
passed unanimously. The towus all
over tlie territory are expected to call
similar meetings and wire resolutions
to the president.

There ia information in this oity to
the effect that Secretary Hoke Smith
will visit this territory within the next
month.
Now, this is just what he or some
other high offioial of the government
should do.
There is a necessity for such a visit.
Don't treat this, readers of The News,
lightly. We believe that Hon. Hoke
Smith will be in Oklahoma within a

A STINGING REBUKE.
Cleveland llnf.ml.it ||y a Leading Itepub.
Iloau Nuw.uap.r,
The St. Louis "Globe-Democrat,"
whose republicanism has uoyer been
doubted, administers a stinging rebuke
to the critics of the administration who
are disposed to hold it accountable for
the disturbances in the Unaucial world.
It says:
Every newspaper reader bus known
for «x or eight years past that Mr.
Cleveland ia an intelligent and pro
nounoed sound money man, and that ho
is sinoeraly devoted to the true theories
of finance and as resolute in defending
them as General Harrison or any other
man in the oountry, republican or
otherwise. Nobody fears now or has
feared that the flnanoial interests of
the oonntry would suffer in his hands.
Moreover, no reasonable being believes
that since his inauguration a single
dollar in gold haa gone out of tho treas-
ury more than would have gone if Gon-
eral Harrison had remained in office
for another term. All these accusations
and inuendoes overstep the bounds of
legitimate politics. They are tho meth-
ods of the pirate and not of the lionest
partisan. They help no man aud no
cause, while they, to the extent of the
prominence and the influence of their
authors, tend to exoite a feelinar of dis
trust in the community, which might
exeit an injurious effect in an emer-
gency liko this.

AN INJUSTICE
A Uoo<l Concern '-J ti in pod On" Without
CNUBf.
An article in the "State Capital" yes
terday headed, "Bounoe 'Em," was one
of the most outrageous publications
that has, as yet, ever been printed in
this city.
Just why Mr. Frank Groer attempted
to injure John Jacobs is a mystery to
The News.
We do not know Mr. Jacobs except
in a business way. He has had tran
ssations with this paper, and, so far, he
has done business in a business way.
We do know that Mr. Jaeohs has a
stock of goods, and, from information
obtained of Jones Brooks, we believe
that his stock will invoice $18,
000.00 (eighteen thousand dollars.
Now, we know furthor, and
it is this: that John Jacobs leased
the store on Harrison avenue, which
he now occupies, and paid $1,200.00
(twelve hundred dollars) in advauce
Further, he leased the store for three
years. The records will show this, or
else The News may bu considered us
liar. We know further, that John
Jacobs—the proprietor of the Boston
store—has rented from Judge Lowe
residence on tho corner of Vilas and
Broad, aud, that lie intends to bring his
family here and reside. Now. Mr
Greer, why do you "Jump on" Mr

ASHINGTON, June U.-
Ford's old opera house, on
Tenth street, in which Presi-
dent Lincoln was assassinated,
has fullen in. About 400 government
alerks ware iu the building at the time
aud great loss of life is feared. Tho
first floor collapsed through weakness,
causod by excavating a cellar, and in its
fall carried down the other three floors
aud with them hundreds of olerks. The
doad and wounded are being taken out
rapidly by the Urorueu and police. All
the ambulanoes in the city have been
summoned nud the rescued are being
conveyed to hospitals. It is thought a
hundred people have boen killed. The
scenes ure terrible. Some jumped
from the third floor. Of the 400 clerks
in the buildiug scarcely one escaped
more or less iujury. Twenty-eight
persous have bceu taken out of the
ruins up to 10:15 a. m. The emergency
hospital is crowded with the dead and
injured. The injuries, from the yery
nature of the accident, are of the sever-
est character, crushod and broken
limbs and internal injuries prevailing.
Tho excitement of the relativos aud
frionds is naturally lutense. Thousands
surround the scene and tho excitement
haB spread all over the city.
Every hospital in tho oity haa now
been called into requisition to care for
the wounded.
It is foared there aro still at least
eighty bodies undor tho ruins. Howard
Miller, of Ohio, a olerk in the
bureau, and an unkuowu man. hor-
ribly mangled, has just beeu brought
to tho emergency hospital. A partial
list of injured at the emergency hos-
pital is as follows: Fred Calvert,
Charles Metcalf, S. D. Dowey, William
LoClure. F. N. Test. P. Kughler, Pon-
nington Ames, Charles R. Miller. C. F.
Hathaway, R M. Patrick, J. A. Stew-
art, Lewis Dopway aud J. N. Mc-
Laughlin.
There ore sixteen dead bodies at the
morguo. As uourly as tliey can bo
identified their names and the states
from which tliey were appointed are as
follows:
George M. Arnold, colored, Virginia.
John Busses, District of Columbia.

ative ; effectually cleansing the system,

anil permanently curing constipation.

neys, Liver and Bowels without weak-
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Svrup of Figs is for sale by all drug-
gists in 50c ami $1 bottles, but it is man-
