County, was chosen as president by a
vote of to 6. defeating w. A. Mozart
ney, Republican, of Kingfisher County.
In the lower house there was a bitter
fight all morning, but it soon developed
that the Observation-Disclosures combine
had IA votes to II for the Republicans.
A legal question as to the right to Or
ganize without the proper certificates
from Governor Steele was brought
up. The Governor had refused
to issue these certificates on the
ground that membership of the House

recently elected delegate at large, was
without credentials. Finally j. c. Post

his right to do this.

Alliance member from Canadian County

elected Speaker of the House.

journed until to-day.
The Oklahoma City Republicans, who
voted for the Alliance men and gave
them the majority, claim that they did

Two Unprovoked Murders in Missouri-One
of the Murderers Speedily Hanged BY =
Mob.
ODESSA, Mo-, Aug. 3o-A horrible
murder took place at MAYHEM, small
town seven miles east of this city. early
yesterday morning. The facts are about
as follows:
Will Waters, an eighteen-year-oldc col
ored boy, went to the store Of Mr. j. w.
Parker about four o'clock and he wanted
to buy some goods. Mr.. Parker opened
the front door. Just at this instance
another colored man passed the store
and inquired of Will the cause of his
early purchasing. He answered that he
was gong to take in the Higginsville
fair.
About eight o'clock some one went
into the store to ascertain why Mr.. Park
er did not show up and was Mortified
to find him cold in death, with his throat
cut from ear to ear. besides a deep cash
in the head and broken collar bone.
When the report was given out a
posse began a search and at this hour
the murderer has not been arrested. 1t
is the general impression that when the
rascal is found that he will be hanged
to the nearest limb. as Mr.. Parker was
quiet and much respected gentleman.
The murder was evidently committed
with view of robbery, but nothing was
missed from the room.
In the pocket of vest of Mr.. Perkins
which hung on the wall was $50 in cur
rency and in shot sack on shelf was
some $40 or $50 in silver.
If there was any money in the drawer
the murderer took it, as the com bina-
ton on the drawer was broken.
Later-The negro was found near
MAYHEM late last night and lynched
outright
He acknowledged the murder and pro-
duced corn knife with which the MUIR
der was committed.

of Higginsville.
Early last evening w. NJ. Felts went
to the hotel kept by A. S. Higgins. and
almost without warning stabbed him to

The murder was the result of quar-
rel that took place between the two at
the fair grounds here yesterday after
noon. Higgins was receiver of tickets

Cured between him and Felts which re-
suited in the cowardly murder of the
old gentleman.

livery stable keepers of this city.
Captain Higgins is brother of Col
onel II. j. Higgins, the father of the
city. He was seventy-four years old

enough tillableor other land remains to

the further fact that the government
