WITHOUT DISTURBANCE.

GUTHRIE, Okla, Sept. 22.-"Hurrah!
600 madly-rushing landseekers as the
timepieces along the border proclaimed
the hour of noon to-day. Simultaneous
with the arrival of that hour, the home
seekers gathered on the border, made a
headlong rush over the line into the
coveted country, and onto the quarter
sections upon which their eyes had been
feasting, some for days and others for
weeks and months.
The rush was mad one, and was
made so by the fact that the number of
home-seekers greatly exceeded the
number of manifestations available for
settlement. First there, first served"
was the motto of every racer. There
was room in the lands for about 5000
settlers, allowing 100 acres for each.
There were on the border awaiting to
claim the available land fully 1900
people, so that there were three persons
for each section. 1t was no wonder.
then, that the rush was mad one, for
in this case, at least, the race was inva-
riably to the swift. Like scenes have
never been witnessed before, except
when Oklahoma became the peoples
two years ago. The
Most Desirable Land
is situated in the Iowa, Sac and Fox
reservations, and the greater number of
boomers naturally congregate around
them. The boomers were distributed
among the various starting points about
as follows: At Tohee, 5000; Langston,
l,500 negroes and 500 whites; on the
Kickapoo border, 5000, and on the Pot
tawatomie border. 1000. The aIlot-
ments to the Pottawatomie Indians
nearly exhausted tho lands in their
reservation, so that the home-seekerS had
littlechance of locating claim there. AT
LangSton, negroes had been gathered
by the Negro Colonization society to the
number of l.500, and they were to move
en- masse into the Cimarron valley, a
most fertile region, and locate in a
bunch. Five hundred whites, mostly
cowboys, also had their eyes on that sec
ton, and each party had made all sorts
of threats of taking the land by force.
One of the unique sights at Tohee was
company of young ladies from Guthrie,
who had formed colonization
company to proceed to the new lands
and settle on adjoining claims. They
were mounted on Texas ponies, and
were attired, as near as might bel cow
boy costume, armed with revolvers and
equipped for camping out. They made
the race in a body. So far as has been
ascertained up to the present time, no
serious conflict has taken place between
rival claimants, and the country has
been peacefully occupied.

they shot each other over claim, others
that they were thrown from their horses
and killed In the stampede, While others
say they were shot by the cowboys.
Two negro women secured the quar-
ter sections Immediately adjoining
Langston. The news from Chand-
Ter is reassuring. A courier from
that place reports that the soldiers
still hold the town site and
that the settlers have made no attempt
to occupy it by force. A town site COM
panY has plated town site on the sec
ton adjoining the government town
Site, and most of the people who rushed
to Chandler to claim lots have taken
claims on Chandeliers neighborIng rival.
News from the south county town site
is to the effect that the survey has
been completed and approved by
Gov. Steelly, who has issued
his proclamation opening it to
settlement at 10 O'clock tomorrow
morning. The settlers surrounding the
site are much displeased that il was not
opened at the same time the rest of the
lands were, and they contemplated a
raid upon it. The presence OF the
troops, however, and the fact that they
would lose all their right to the land if
they became "sooners" restrained them
All is reported quiet there. Gov. Steele
will arrive at Chandler Thursday morn
ing to open that townsite to claimants.

MILLS, SOUND ADVICE.
The Tariff Issue Should Be the
Main Thing

INV YORK, Sept. 22.-The advice of
Roger Q. Mills, given in his speech in
Ohio Saturday night, that the silver is
sue and all other issues should be put
to one side, and that the fight this year
and next should be made solely Oh the
tariff issue, pleases many Democrats.
Senator Mcpherson is one of these.
'How do you propose to eliminate the
silver coinage question from the domain
of party politics in the near future?' he
was asked.
sit is not a question between political
parties at all, but one of individual
opinion" he satd. eff party lines were
reformed solely with respect to this
issue, there would be such a transfer

never before seen. Herein lies the dam
ger to all true lovers of tariff reform. l

will not freely say that he prefers as a
monetary condition that every dollar
which circulates as money among the
people shall be equal III value with

''Our financial position was never

all our needs, and all as good as gold.
Moreover, if the volume of circulation

coinage question, holding as we do the

BLAINE FOR BEN.
Statement That the Maine Man
Will Not Run.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-Mr. Blaine,
soon after the first Of the new year, will
notify his friends that under no circum-
stances could he accept the nomination
for the presidency, and that he is for
the denomination of Harrison. This in
formation is given by man whose
fame is national, and who is friend of
Harrison and Blaine. He had charge of
the Northwest for the president, and
has the fullest confidence of both par
ties. Mr.. Blaine will return to Wash
ington in October IN good shape for
work.
The situation as here given has been
known to the president for some time,
and Mr.. Blaine postpones his notifca'
ton for good and sufficient reasons best
known to himself. He expects to re-
turn to Washington in October, and his
health has so much improved that he
will get to work at once, as there are
number of important matters which re-
quire his personal attention. There
have been rumorS galore as to what Mr..
Blaine intends to do in response TO the
clamor for his accepting nomination,
but this is the first positive statement

NO SERIOUS DISORDER.
Two Negroes Killed at Langston
by Loose Shooting.


GUTHRIE, Okla, Sept. %. Reports
have been received from several other
places along the border, all of which
agree that there has as yet been
no very serious disturbance. Several
individual alterations between rival
claimants and several personal en-
counters are reported, but the conse-
QuenceS were not serious. AT d. III.
Samuel Ayers, colored man, arrived
from LangStOn. He said some shooting
had occurred but could not tell whether
any one was hurt or not. McCabe,
founder of the negro town of Langston,
arrived at $50. He said: "Our people
agreed this morning to form line and
at the dischargeEof shots rush for the
lands. This was done at IL O'clock. To-
Gated my claim and Immediately left for
Guthrie. There was much firing going
on when l left, but / do not know
The bullets whistled so closely to my
ears that it was uncomfortable"
Mr.. Wilson, photographer, who came
in says: Two negroes were killed at
Langston. One was dead when l
reached there. and the other died
soon after. The story of every ar
rival from Langston agrees that
there has been no serious rioting be-
tween the negroes and the cowboys.
Ex-Auditor McCabe, of Kansas, the
founder of the Negro colony at Lang
ston. started for Guthrie through the
Iowa lands. He was met by three men
who ordered him to go back whence he
came He declined and they opened
fire on him, when he fed back to Lang
ston and from there came to Guthrie.
All arrivals from Langston confirm the
report that two negroes were
killed in the new lands south OF
the colony. but no one seems to know
how they met their death. Some say

A CANADIAN SENSATION.
Postmaster General Haggart May
Be ImDeached.

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 22.-This after
noon in the house of commons Mr.. Lis
ter, member of parliament for Lambton,
gave notice that tomorrow he will move
for impeachment of Hon. j. G. Haggart,
postmaster general, in connection with
the construction Of section B, of the
Canadian Pacific railway. The charge
will be that while a member Mr..
Haggart was interested in this contract,
given by the government for the con-
struction of that part of the railway
which runs between Keewatin and
Eagle river. Mr.. Haggart was not at
the time a member of the ministry,
being given portfolio only in 1856.
This is the sensation OF the day and
dwarfs the McGreevy- Langeyin debate.

Leo Condemns Duelins.

ROME, Sept. 22.-The pope has sent a
letter to the German and Austrian Cath
Ollie clergy urging them to- make the
strongest 'endeavor to eradicate dueling.
After invoking the penalties pronounced
by his predecessors the pope recalls the
fact that the penalties are directed as
much against seconds and witnesses as
against principals. He deplores the
fact that the civil laws against duelng
are ignored, while soldiers are COM

EMANCIPATION DAY.
Congressman Miller Addresses
Chicago Coiored People.

CHICAGO, Sept. %. = Emancipation
day was celebrated to-day by the COL
ored people with mass meetings and a
picnic at Osgood grove. Congressman
Miller, of Beaufort county, South Caro-
lima, was the orator of the day. He
eulogized Abraham Lincoln, and, speak
ing of the South, said: THE new South
is a fact. The child, however. is i'll
formed. Its blood is tainted. 1t is
strong, but lacks endurance. 1t is as
much your duty to-day to assist the ma
ton in training and developing this
partly spoiled youth as it was your duty
late in the fifties to educate through
your patron saint the nation up to that
point ofthe emancipation of the slave,
and the preservation of the Union.
Omit it and the work will have to be
done over again in the same way as it
was finished at Appomattox."

GoRsT's BOMBSHELL.
Land Held as Luxury Must Be
Cat Into Farms.

LONDON, Sept. 22.-Lord John Gorst
has cast bombshell into the Conserva-
tive camp by his utterance on the ne
cessity Of making popular the owner
ship of land. The fayorite Tory rem
edy for overcrowding is emigration.
While the Liberals have never come
out boldly for the division of the soil
among the people and the multiplica-
ton of small owners, they have claimed
that emigration was not the proper rem
edy and that there was room enough in
England for all Englishmen. Now Sir
John Gorst dares TO say what the Lib
erals have limited at: that the private
parks and preserves must be cut up as
homes for the people and the people be
given a chance TO become owners. If
Sir John remains in the Tory cabinet it
is only because they are afraid TO drop

What Is Good Baking Powder

1t is we'll known fact that carbonate
of ammonia is used by bakers in the
preparation of the finest and most
wholesome bread and cake, and has
been from time immemorial. 1t is
among the oldest and at the same time
most heathful constituents of baking
powders. 1t is all evolved in gas by the
heat of the oven, and leaves no trace of
itself in the food, and it is this that
gives it its great value as a leavening
agent in the opinions Of the physicians.

A Dutch Journalist Reflects on
Cowardly Sailors.

Italian steamship Taormina, which was
recently sunk after collision off Cape
Colonna, Oh the coast of Greece. by
the Greek steamship Thessalia, has
written letter in which be makes seri-
Gus charges against the Italian officers.
He says that the Taormina's crew, led
by the first officer, basely deserted the
captain, and that they clambered 'like
rats" OH board the Thessalia. Only a
handful of sailors, the journalist adds,
remained loyal, and they were unable
to lower the Taormina's boats, which
were filed with miscellaneous articles
and so securely fixed and sheltered
from the sea that it was impossible to
launch them. Continuing, he says that
the passengers could not find any life
belts. life RATS or life-saving apparatus
of any kind, and he attributes the great
loss of life about siXty-siX droWned) to
this defect.
