sadness. he anatomical the Bachelor, " the I'M
married man of any age, laid bare his weak
nesses, made sport OF his awkrardnesscs, told
briefly bis go0lnesses, criticized bis eccestrici'
ties, classifying the gems into three species

tims Pippin. or Ideal and the Winter Crab

OKLAHOMA.

Judge Foster, of the United State
district court decides, we believe. that
Oklahoma belongs to the public do
main. Should this decision he afli rn-
ed by the supreme court, all this dis
puted land will be settled upon soon
The land embraced in this territory is
about seventy-five by hundred and
fifty miles, considerable portion of il
being very good, much of il inferior
for farming purposes. If our estimate
of the extent of Oklahoma is correct
there are forty thousand homesteads
of 100 acres each for those who desire
to take them, provided the supreme
court will SO hold and provided the
government will not object. Hun
dreds of men in this county will go
down there and take claims the mo-
ment they think it safe Ito do so.-E-
dorado Republican.

The south will assert It's power and

Mr.. Cleveland will hear thi- talk and
he will heed it.
The country may rs well be prepsr-
ed for the inevitable. The Republican
office-holders have nothing to expect.
The vote that elected Grover Cleve-
land, it is presumed, was cast intelli-
gently. and ment the rule of the south
through Democratic administration.
The offices are but the tail which goes
