EXCITEMENT IN OKLAHOMA.
Legislators Roughly Handled by Indignan,
Citizens


GUTHRIE,O. .,Oct. To-day was one
Of tremendous excitement in the territor-
ial legislature. The bill for the perman-
ent location OF the capital at Oklahoma
City passed the house yesterday. Before
action was taken in the upper house to-
day, however, motion in the lower
house for reconsideration was adopted.
Friends OF Speaker Daniels had induced
him to sign the bill and Representative
Perry was hurrying over to the upper
house with II. When the enemies of the
measure discovered this the legislature
was turned into a bowling mob. Perry
was pursued. When overtaken in the
street some one yelled "Hang him." and
the proposition was nearly carried
into effect. The unfortunate legis-
lator convinced the mob, however,
that he had handed the bill 10 Represen-
tative Nesbitt and that gentleman made
wild break down the street with the mob
IN full pursuit. Nesbitt managed TO dis
tance them for four blocks. when his
strength gave out and he surrendered.
The bill was taken back TO the house and
the speaker, i'm the presence of the gov
ernor and other witnesses, erased his sig
nature, saying he had signed the measure
under a misapprehension. The United
States marshal and Captain Cavenaugh,
commanding the United States forces,
calmed the excited crowd, which was still
demanding the punishment Of Perry and
Nesbitt.

CUSTOMS ADMINISTRATIVE ACT
Desire of Consignors to Have Its Provis-
ions Modified.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-Acting Secretary,
Batcheller has written the secretary OF
state in regard to the question submitted
to our consul general at London and the
secretary Of the chamber OF commerce OF
that city concerning manufacturers addi-
tional statements required under the Gus
toms administrative act, the form OF such
statement being III, provided by the
treasury department for the declaration
by manufacturer of merchandise con-
signed for sale by him on his account TO
person in the United States, showing the
actual cost Of production and shipment
itemized.
The London chamber Of commerce de-
sires that in lieu Of the above declaration
our customs authorities accept the follow
ing declaration: That for trade reasons
decline TO give my conslgnee particulars
asked for, but am willing 10 give the same
to the United States consul general for his
personal satisfaction. Ii was represented
to the consul general by the consignors
that IL is unfair TO require them To give
consignees information as to the cost OF
product and all elements entering into
such cost and il is destructive of the nat
ural laws of commerce and trade for them
TO do il.
In his letter General Batcheller says T:
As the form of declaration prescribed by
your (the state) department is confined TO
particulars required by section Of the act
of Juhe 10, 1890, TO be specified in the Of
fetal statement of affairs, as under the
terms of that law such n statement must
be presented to the collector Of customs
by the person, agent, partner or con-
signee, who must make the declaration
prescribed by section 5, this department
is of the opinion that information as TO
the actual cost cannot consistently, with
the provisions of the provisions cited, be
withheld from the consignee and made
the subject of a confidential communica.
ton from the consignor to consuls, and
that no other form of statement than
from III can be accepted as satisfying the
requirements of the law.

lDAHO'S ELECTION.
Ada County Said To Have Gone soiIdly
Democrstio-Important Gains.


Special 10 the Standard.
Boise CRY, Idaho, Oct. 2.-This has
been day Of rejoicing for democrats in
this county. When the polls closed last
night the republicans claimed everything.
but matters seem TO be reversed tonight
so far as Ada county is concerned, for in
this great republican county probably not
a republican has been elected. Five MEM
bers OF the legislature and all the
county officers appear TO be democratic
by small but safe majorities. II was
a great surprise TO the republicans as this
county has always been republican by a
big majority. AS the day advanced sur
prise was expressed that no reliable news
was received from other counties in the
state. This surprise has hourly increased
and up to this time only six counties have
been heard from definitely. Out Of
these six four are said 10 have
carried the entire democratic state and
county tickets. In Boise county the re-
publicans don't elect a man. Elmore
county sends solid democratic delega-
tlon To the legislature. Washington does
the same, while Nez Perce has gone re-
publican by about % and Latah by about
twice that. News from Shoshone says so
Tar as counted the republicans are
in decided lead. Bingham and
Mormon counties have undoubted
gone republican,. Ii would be
useless to send figures tonight as even in
this county the exact vote has not yet
been ascertained. Ii will take several
days before the final result can be known.
The miners in the north seem TO have
followed the direction Of their bosses who
commanded them 10 bolt the democratic
ticket In Alturas county Gibbons,
democrat,and Gum and Mills, republican,
are probably elected TO the legislature.
Logan legislative ticket is evenly divided
SO far as heard from, as Dryden, demo
crat, and Armstrong, republican,. are
elected. Latah sends solid republican
delegation OF six to the legislature. The
impression now prevails that Shoupe is
elected governor by about 1000 and the
remainder Of rhe republican state ticket
by about the same.

Honest.

No man can pursue an honest policy
for long course of years without gain
ing reputation more to be valued than
great riches. 1t does one good, heart
and soul, to remember that there are
men who are like pillars of fire by night
to more wavering consciences, men who
can reject bride with the haughtiness
due an insult. The late W. H. Y. Hack
EFT, Of Portsmouth, was an exception
ally honest man, one of those lawyers
who, like Abraham Lincoln, would not
undertake case which did not seem to
him just one, and wherever he was
known his influence over a jury was
naturally great
One day, after the termination of a
certain case, Mr.. Hackett met an old
farmer who had been one of the Jury,
and who felt that too much time had
been consumed in reaching a verdict.
'"The fact is, squire" he said, 1--WE
shouldn't ha' been 80 long a-givin' you
that case, but somehow or other there
happened to be couple O men on there
who didn't know you at all. WAL, the
rest of us, we just told 'em what kind of
man we knowed Squire Hackett to be.
An we kind Of insisted upon it that we
could depend exactly on what you said.
An so, after that, we all came round
together. Youths Companion.

Russell Harrison,s Wedding.

full Miss Saunders to Mr.. Harrison a
we'll known lawyer of Omaha, one of the
guests and an intimate friend of the
Harrisons, without moments warning
dropped dead where he stood The effect
of such sad affair may be imagined.
The scene Of happiness was changed in a
moment to one of mourning. The bridal
wreaths and roses were trampled under
foot in the wild rush for assistance, and,
where but few minutes before the
strains of the wedding march were re-
sounding, now the screams of women
and the weeping of friends were heard.
Pale and frightened the bridal couple
left the cathedral, and many were the
solemn and grewsome prophecies that
their married life would not be happy

Sea Otter Not Extinct

Mr.. Chapman states that he saw a
band of forty sea offers in company with
a school of porpoises and black fish sport

from the small number of their skins
which now find their way to market. 1t

in the water, and often going far from:
land, but coming ashore to produce. 1t

like seal in its nature and habits. The

the species will probably be extinct in q
few years.-Olyapio Tribune.

An Ancient Image Discovered.

A valuable archaeological find was
made recently byapoor woman, by name
Jane Honeylow, living short distance
down the coast from Tuxpan, Mexico.
She was engaged in enlarging her little

digging up growth of weeds and vines,
when coming In contact with something
hard, which she found impossible to re
move, she dug around it and found that
object to be an iron boiler such as is used
In ships. It was filed up with earth to
the depth Of a foot and more, and this
being taken out large stone was found
tightly wedged in, forming sort Of lid
or stopper.
This was removed with great difficulty,

image OF the virgin and child In solid

and tarnish Of time and soil, was found
to be inscribed with a Latin dedication
to one Pietro, with the brotherly love Of

That it was the work of the great

statue is one of extraordinary beauty. It
is about nine inches in height and repre-
sents the mother bending over the child
