spending the summer at the Atlantic
Hotel here. They are gone to pastures
new. But before leaving, the Misses
Treat gave a supper to their friends,
and TO the guests of the hotel. The
cost Of this grand affair was estimated
at more than $500 For this and other
little luxuriss Mr. Treat, when tn e
proprietor presented his bill of over
500, gave sight draft on Montague,

departed. The proprietor went to a
friend in Berlin, who cashed the draft
aud sent it to the New York agent

there were mo funds" The wrongs
of the Berlin friend were at once righ-

the fascinating smile of Q. H. Treat.

Here to-day and gone tomorrow"
was my remark, as last Sunday morning
l walked over the deserted camp at La
viuia'S Woods. The tents are still stand
ing, and as l walked around the circle
alone, my thoughts were busy with the
unburied past and with the unborn future
Perhaps there has been enough said al
ready about this camp, vet it hardly
seems fair, that while its dawniug light
was hailed with pleasure, and its midday
sun shone in splendor on happy throug,
that its closing scenes should fade away
without a passing notice. Socially It
has been q success-new acQuaintances
have been formed. which may produce
their legitimate fruits in after wears: old
friendships which had fingered long. or
had become nearly etfaced by the hand
of time, have been renewed; aud pleas
ure without stint has enraptured the
hearts of many. Financially, II has been
a success; even more than the manage
ment expected. After hquidating all ex-
penseS, the committee have a surplus of
about 500. Now yegHfeSdaf IN pace dear

THE market for evapOrated fruits,
especially peaches. is firm. The fruit
put up in 1855 is advancing, and by
some dealers is being held for big
prices during the coming winter. Del
aware and Maryland will not evapor-
ate enough peaches this season to sup
ply the home demand. We do not
know OF but one firm in the State that
have had the fires built in their fur
naees this season, aud this firm is CAL
houn & Thoroughbred, of Georgetown.
They will have few tons of fiue fruit
that has cost much money; but, they
are wise and will hold it,they can pos
sibly command their own price before
the winter is over. The supply must
come from California this season, and
although their fruit is not rs choice as
the Delaware fruit, the prices will
range much higher this season than
usual, and the few tons of choice Della
ware peaches will bring a much higher
price than the California fruit.

by President Green promptly at 2 CLOCK
to-day The order of business was so
changed that the election of delegates to

Cured after the completion of all other
business. Horace Speed of Guthrie pre-
sented a memorial TO be presented TO the
United States congress. 1t prays that
such legislation be enacted as will pro-
tect the social and commercial interests
of the people. 1t claims that the Indian
Territory is as thio1ly settled as the av-
erage of the states in the Union
and prays for similar protection.
At the present time there is

There are no means by which crimes may
be punished unless they be against the

congress TO remedy this unfortunate state
of affairs. The memorial was laid over

GUTHRIE, OKLAHOMA, Aug. 21.-The
committee on a memorial to congress re-
ported to the territorial convention to-
day. The memorial is an admirable
state paper, the work of Mr.. Horace
Speed, and states that the territory OF
OkIahama, containing a population of
so 900 inhabitants, is in an absolute con-
dition of anarchy, and prays for speedy
relief by congress. The convention will
send delegate to congress, and also a
committee of four, to present the memo
rial and urge immediate action by con-
gress.
At the afternoon session the committee
on organic law reported their cOnstitu-
ton for the territory of Oklahoma 1t
a very brief and concise document,
and calls for a government of legislative,
judicial and executive branches similar
to other states and territories.
A minority report favored the adoption
of the Indiana convention, but at to-
morrow mornings session the constitu-
ton as reported by the majority will I'M
doubtedly be adopted
The afternoon session WAS al
most entirely devoted to the hearing
of the reports of standing committees
When the committee on privilege ard
election reported a boomer delegate
moved to amend by giving women the
right of suffrage. This provided a ludi-
erous and almost endless discussion-in
fact, the proceedings from that time on
were a screaming farce, and the con-
ventiOn broke up in a disgraceful row.
Mayor StOckslag of East Guthrie, in
alluding to the recent municipal election,
said that about 90 per cent of the bawdy
element of East Guthrie availed them
selves OF the privilege of the ballot,
while only about D per cent. of the re-
spectacle women voted. He said that
the 'flong- haired'' women did not wish
to vote, but wished to attend
to household duties which was
woman s mission in life The
expression "'long-haired' women was
nsed in contradistinction to the demi
monde, but the Rev. Mr. Monroe, who
occupied the chair, construed his re-
marks to reflect upon the Woman
Christian Temperance Union, and Jump
ing from his seat, he began a TRADE, in
which others joined, and so on until the
convention was a verltable bedlam and
the proceedings were disgraceful in the
extreme. A boomer delegate now occu-
pied the chair, and he pounded loudly
with his gavel and sent the sergeant-at-
arms to eject several members from the
hail. At this juncture a fight occurred
just outside the door and the whole con-
gregation made a rush for the doors and
windows, thinking that riot was immi-
nent. AT last order was restored and

INEQUALITIES OF TAXATION.
How It is that the Poor Pay PrOportionateIy
Very Much More Than the Rich.

How it IS that the Poor Pay PrOportionately
Very Much More Than the Rich.
Thos. G. Sherman in Standard
The income, therefore, of more than
four-ffths of the people of this country
with the average family of three is less
than three hundred dollars a year. If
YOU chose to take the family of FIVE you
would only bring the average incomes up
to about four hundred and fifty dollars
a year for five persons. Now take that
$3.50 and ask yourself on what sum can q
man maintain family of FIVE personsP
How much of that can he save if he were
not taxed at all, meanwhile living with
bare comfort and decency? We win re-
duce him to 4 pretty small figure and say
that he can do it upon $3.50, $40 to each
member of the family. Statistics do not
justify that conclusion, but we will take
it. Then, if he were not taxed, he
would be able to save $780,
Now comes taxation, and during a
period Of about twenty years the average
taxation imposed upon such family was
over 20 per cent. upon their expenditure
that is, $40. Out of what can a man
pay that tax? Out Of what he spends?
You might as well say he can pay taxes
out of what he has eaten. The thing
cannot be done; what is spent is spent.
He pays his taxes only out of what he
can save. He has been taxed so out of
the 500, which is 20 per cent.
Contrast his condition with that of the
man whose income is 500 200 year,
and who is required to expend, in order
TO support his family in modest 6ecency,
SIS 600 a year. That leaves him SS5,-
900 out OF which to pay his taxes His
tax, at 20 per cent. upon his expendi-
lures. is $1,000. Out Of what does he
