BECAUSE of the death of John NJ.
Clayton, it is thought Congressman
Breckenridge of Arkansas ought to sub
NIT his claims to the people once more.
We fail to see why he should be held
in any manner accountable for the
death of his competitor. Republicans
would no doubt be better satisfied if
another election were held. But, put
the shoe on the other foot, and suppose
that Breckenridge instead of Clayton
was removed what thenP Would
there be the same esgerness for anoth-
er election?

OKLAHOMA.
Don't be too eager.

A(OAA " WV CeskCA-
Oklahoma is notopened yet, norway
not be for some time. You viii find it
comforting to sprinkle little cool pa
thence on your ardor, lest you lose your
temper and say something naughty.
The bill will encounter powerful OPP
position in the senate. How many
friends it may have there is not GER
tainly known. Some perhaps who pre-
tend to be, are not very friendly to it.
Being less numerous body than the
house, the senate is less difficult to
manage by an industrious and persist
ent lobby.
Then, too, the time is short. This
will be taken advantage of by its enc
mics to filibuster and wear 1t out. Such
may not be the case. We hope it wont,
but there is well-grounded fear Of it.
Were there two months instead Of one
in which to consider it in the senate,
we should have better hopes of its
passage.
But, even if it should become a law,
as we hope it will, at this session, still
must you be patient. There are sew.
eral preliminaries to be carried out be.
fore the land is ready for entry.
The bill provides for commission Of
five men who will treat with the Indi
ans for an extinguishment of theil
claims to Oklahoma and the Cherokee
strip.
Then there are a number of othel
tribes whose reservations are made {
part of Oklahoma. Their consent mus
be had before any part of their land ii
open for settlement. Then the land is t.
be afterwards surveyed, and land Offices
not more than four in number, estab
lished.
So it will be seen that under the mos
favorable conditions, there is a grea
deal of indefiniteness about the TIM
when settlers may take possession.
AS we said before, restrain your ar
dor. Talk for it, yell for it, and all that
but be cool and calculating all tn
while. All things come to him VIII,
knows how to wait. Besides, if yOl
swear you'll catch no fish.

OKLAHOMA proper comprises about
l,sOO, 900 acres. In addition to it, how
ever, is included all OF the Indian Ter
ritory excepting the land of the five ma

600 acres, or fully half of the territory.
II the Oklahoma bill which has gone to
the senate be referred to the committee
on public lands, of which Senator
Plumb is chairman, it ought, with his
aid, to become Law at this session.

FATHER KRoHN advises that Helen
Cougar be boycotted when she exhibits
her talents in Kansas, for being a dem

He is known to have weakness that
way, modified somewhat, however,
from the feelings entertained for
Helen, to whom he does not bring the
sentiments of a Paris.

No ONE will credit the Associated
Press dispatches of Saturday insinuat-
ing some terrible things against Bis
marck. There is no reason why he
should seek the death of Prince Ru-
dolph, while Boulanger, a much more
threatening enemy, is allowed to range
at will. AS for Gambetta, Chanzey,
Skobeloff and others, no mystery in con
nection with their death was ever
limited at before. Bismarck is too
strong man to need the aid of an
assassin to gain his ends.

State vs. KINNEY.

The above case was tried before Justice
Fletcher Saturday. A large number
of witnesses were present and good
part of the day was consumed in the
trial
KINNEY was charged with disposing
OF a quantity of corn which had been
mortgaged to one G.. K. Hagan, of
Cottonwood Falls. KINNEY bought a
team of Hagan and the horses, together
with the corn was mortgaged to secure
the latter. KINNEY said the in trial
that Hagan told him he might
sell the corn. This Hagan de-
MED. At any rate nothing
was paid on the mortgage and he
Kinney was consequently prosecuted.
He was found guilty and as the
statutes fix the least possible fine at
$50, he was fined that sum and the
costs. AS the young man is without
money and is no criminal, but has
simply disobeyed the law, the county
commissioners will very likely make
the fine 81 and costs. Some Of the
gentlenen's neighbors went his bond,
for the fine and costs.
