OKLAHOMA PAYNE,s ARREST.
Talk With Gen. Pspt in Regard 10 H.

While at the fort yesterday. a Tunes representa-
tive called Gen. Pope, TO whether he had re-
ceived any notification Of the arrest of Oklzhoms
Boomer Payne, mentioned in yesterday morning .
TTBes. The General stated that he had received no
notification of the arrest but he had no doubt it
true the troops had been securing the country
for him for time, and he ha. expected hi. arr
val daily for some time. telegram could not have
reached him this soon, Maj. Randall would have
taken his prisoners along with him TO Fort Reno,
distant seventy or eighty miles from where the ar
rest was probably made, and notify him from there
The General said that he pied the crowd Of thirty
or forty men, women and children who were with
Payne, as he looked upon them ignorant people.
bndly following the leadership of Payne. without
really knowing what they were doing. As TO what
would be done with Payne he knew nothing; the
Government said the Oklahoma Territory was NOT
open to settlement and settlers would not be allow
ed to 60 in there not if takes all the troops they
can raise. While Payne is making money out Of this
move it is probable that he wants TO bring the mat
ter to point, and have decision rendered as to the
settlement Of the Oklahoma country. That 10 prob
ably VI hat his suit against Gen Pope means He
could have very easily secured this, however, by
taking his case TO the Supreme Court when on his
former arrest. he WAS fined 81 .00o He s strangely
persistent in his efforts to settle the Oklahoma dis
trict. and the military authorities are determined
that he shall be made to obey the commands and
Wishes of the Government in this rsspect.-Leasen

The above is from one of the "holier than
thou" organs, the Hiawatha Herald. The Her.
aid has regular diarrhea of morality, and is
constantly rebuking or lecturing its cotempora-
ries for their wickedness. About once every
two weeks, on an average, it takes a turn at the
Chief, for daring to express free aud independent
thoughts But here we find this high-toned,
moral paper virtually justifying the seduction of
a girl, because she was perhaps giddy, and fool
ish, and forward, and perhaps anxious to get
married, and her sedueer was sanctimonious,
praying hypocritc, and stickler for the fraud
called prohibition. Let it he understood that,
according to the religious and temperance code
of Kansas, as expounded by the Hiawatha Her.
aid girl who is foolish and imprudent is legiti-
mate prey for any hypocritical scoundrel and

Guiteau.

The Electoral College that made Arthur Pres
id-nf to wit: Charles J. Guiteau, has apparent
y got in sight Of the end of the rope at which he
is Doomed to dangle. The Court in Bane, IN
which he placed 50 much hope, has unanimously
agreed that there was no error in his trial and
conviction that would entitle him to q new trial
and that he must hang according to his sentence
ON the JOtl Of June The points decided are as
follows:
That Jurisdiction vi ss complete where the fatal
blow was giveu Garfield died from the effects
Of the bullet fired by Guiteau, who had not been
in New Jersey, and had committed no ohense
against that State: and the mere fact OF the
victim having been removed to Elberon in the
hope Of prolonging or saving his life, and death
acquiring there could not affect the character OF
the crime.
That this i. a United States Court, with all
the powers of any Circuit Court Of the United
States.
That the District Of Columbia is n Judicial
District, and that under the provisions of law,
where a crime is begun in one and completed IN
another District the ohense is complete in either
That murder being an ofense in this District
against the United States, the removal Of the
President to New Jersey did not take him beyond
the Jurisdiction Of the Government against which
the offense was committed.
The prisoner will he confined in a solitary cell
in the Jail, and placed under continued guard,
known as the death watch" Every act will
be observed up to the fatal moment, and not q
word will be permitted to be spoken TO him, e1-
eept by his spiritual adviser, or by persons sPe-
cially authorized by the Warden, who has entire
charge of and responsibility for the assassin, from
this time on until his dead body is ready to be
consigned to fhe doctors for post mOrtem examin-
alton. 1t is determined to have an examination
of the brain by board of the best medical e1-
perts in the United States, 10 put at rest forever
the question of insanity. What is then left OF
Guiteau will he delivered to his relatives, if they
call for it.
The foregoing is the present plan. Guiteau's
lawyer, Reed, will apply to the Supreme Court
Of the United States for for writ Of kabeas cor
pHs but as this Court will not be in session un-
til October, the President will be asked to stay
the execution until the application can be ar
gued. There is possibility of good many slips
before the day of execution arrives, and the
country will be better satisfied when it knows
that the hanging has actually taken place. As
long as President Arthur has any power in the
matter, the country can depend upon nothing
If Conkling and Don Cameron should make up
their minds that the American people must he
further humiliatel by knowing that Guiteau's
life is held to be worth more than Garield's,
Arthur will pardon him.

~ John A. Martin has recently perpetrated a
cruel Joke some of the Kansas men, who saw
and knew it all, in early days. On his return
from Washington, he reported an interview with
President Arthur, in which the latter told Of
having been a resident of Kansas, in the early
days of the Territory, and related an incident of
n stage ride from Lawrence to LsavenwOrth, in
company with Gen. Lane and Others Now
comes John Speer, and says he was in the stage
at the same time, and remembers the occasion.
The fun of ID is, that Col. Martin made up the
story, expressly for the purpose of finding out
how many knowing chaps would spring up, who
knew all about il.

Too THN.-That letter from Watbena, in last
fridays ST. Joseph Herald, was written in the
Herald Office 1t was so thin and transparent that
a ten-year-old boy would think its authorship
NO credit. A Doniphan County man would give
some substantial reason why Doniphan County
should support Major Morrill, for Congress; but
this letter expresses the belief that Doniphan
County will support him because he gave q do
nation TO the Hiawatha Library, and because he
gave 100 sacks Of -four per week to the sufferers
of Western Kansas. 1t is about time this hum
bug were pricked, or we shall soon be gravely
told that Morrill, gave ten car loads Of -four per
day TO the sufferers of Western Kansas. We be-
leve the fact is, that he gave five halfsacks per
week, for a given number of weeks-and not
many weeks at that. We don't blame the Her
aid very much for its extraordinary zeal in be-
half of Morrill, for he is endorser on the notes Of
that concern for 5000; but If it has agreed to
give him the votes of Doniphan County to pay
for the accommodation, it has undertaken to do
what it can't begin to fulfill. We do not want
TO speak unkindly of Major Morrill,, and hope we
shall not he betrayed into doing 80 by the domi-
neering of his over-zealous supporters; but We
predict that the weekly emissions of the White
Cloud Rerier, and the efforts of the st. Joseph
Herald, with its bogus letters, will not control
the vote of Doniphan County for Morrill,. The
Herald may a. well confine its efforts to canoni-
zing Jesse James, for it can't run Doniphan
County.
