AHorse,s Wild Career.

The fine bay saddle-horse of Sheriff Rich
ardson is seriously hurt. Yesterday morn
ing Capt. Richardson hitched his horse on
the south side Of the square by the side
walk. In short time the driver of Spar
rows laundry wagon left his wagon on an
errand, and during his absence the horse
became frightened and started at break
neck speed directly for the captains big
bay The collision was terrific, knocking
the captains horse down and piling the
wagon on top of him. The frightened ami
NAL fell, too, but bounded up and continued
his mad run, headed for the bluff, the re-
mains of the wagon numbering after him,
and when he reached the bluff near the
laundry he rrshed pell-meli over preci-
pice into cut twenty feet deep, and when
extricated was considerably bruised up,
though not as seriously as the fine bay OF
the captains. The wagon was complete

A Strike that Did Not Pan Out.

On Friday night last at supper there was
some fun in the Mansion house dining
room, though the fun did not pan out so
well as the origiuators anticipated. Dur
ing the day the colored walters petitioned
Col. Dunn TO discharge Anderson Hudson,
the head waiter, and put in his stead a
union man. Col. Dunn caucused with An
derson, and was assured by the latter that
he could secure walters that would work
under him. Col Dunn told Anderson to
per was announced, Anderson took his ac-
customed place in the dining-room. When
the old walters saw this they pulled the
string, off came their snowy white aprons
and they marched out of the diningroom.
Anderson's new recruits We're in waiting,
and in pair of minutes the guests We're
being served as though noting out of the

Ropes Across tn. Streets.

After the fire yesterday morning ropes
were stretched across Rusk at Third and
Fourth, across Fourth at Main, and owing
to the darkness they could not be seen by
pedestrians, drivers of wagons, and people
who had occasion to come out early on
horseback, until they We're touched, and
in many instances one approaching rapidly
would be thrown violently or receive a
severe shock, and the language used after
coming in contact with one of these ropes
would not have sounded well in Sunday
school. There should have been lanterns
or guards placed at these points, at least
until daylight for people little suspected
an obstruction of this kind. as there was
not the least sign of debris in the streets
mentioned, and there was nothing in the
burnt district that could have by any
means injured anyone passing along the
streets after everything had burned.

was thought TO have or know something
about gold watch stolen from a ieweler

CREEK COUNCIL
TO DECLARE PERRYMAN'S ELEC.
TON UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Blood and Position on the Pasture
Question-No More. Permits.
Special to the Gazette.

EUrAULA, !. T., Oct. 1.-THE Creek ma
tional council has been in session since the
9TH. but nothing has been done except to
count the vote for the cheftancy cast at
the recent election and to investigate the
affairs of the several Offices The count
gives l.. C. Perryman. the present incum-
bent. plurality of 200 over Judge John
Reed and Reed seventy-fvc over Hon. Es-
parhecker. The constitution requires u
majority to elect chief, but the electoral
board declared Perryman elected. The
friends of the other candidates are together
on political issues and are in the majority
in the council, and have fused and de-
termined to defeat Perryman's installation,
and failing to do that, 10 so obStruct the
chief that he Can accomplish nothing.
Private advices from responsible source
say that to-day would be introduced bill
in the council setting Aorth that the chief
has not been legally elected because of q
failure to receive the constitutional major
ity and because of inGiscriminate briDing
of voters; and therefore that the election
be nullitied and a new election be ordered.
In that event the three factions will har-
monte and nominate some one acceptable
10 all to oppose Perryman. Negro blood
predominates in him, and he commands the
undivided support of the large negro citi-
zenship in the nation, besides that of the
pasturemen and cattleholders, and is con-
sidered to be the friend of the white in
VeStOf. Inc OppOSlIlOn Is composed OF the
full-blood and half-breed element and an
Iagon.zes Chief Perryman on account of his
negro kinship and his position on the pas
ture and cattle holding questions. He has
large interests in these industries, and is
said to get several thousand dollare annu-
ally from cattle holdings for Texas cattle
men.
Another matter of interest is the apparent
certainty that this council will abolish the
permit system. under which about 5000
whites are residing in the Creek Nation
The full-blood element is in decided major
ity, and they are opposed to the whites being
in here at all. A letter received here from
a quarter breed member of the senate who
is opposed to the measure says that the per-
NIT men are hopelessly in the minority, and
that it IS apparently certain that the per-
init system will be repealed. 1t is the pur-
pose of the council that no more whites be
permitted to come in, and that those now in
be elected as soon as their permits expire,
but they will be opposed by the most influ-
entail, wealthy and brainy Indians 10 the
Nation-those who have farms aud other
interests dependent upon the whites, and
vii! lack the concurrence of the interior de-
partment. Therefore the only perceptible
change will be the loss OF the Sc eral
thousand dollars revenue now coming to
the Nation from the permit source. No
anxiety is felt about it here so far.

WE have not observed that our morn- ing Democratic neighbor, has publicly smacked his lips over free sugar, since we propounded him the questoin, as to what the difference was between tariff on one article and government bounty on another. Sugar having two cents & pound bounty by the government on it, of course makes it sell that much less to consumers. We are aware neighbor, by your local items picture, as well as your statements, that you do not claim any other audience than the city of Phoenix. By the way, don't you think it rather .lur on Phenix, to say as you do, that they do not want to hear any outside news? Still your Phoenix readers are entitled to be informed on public political questions. So we again ask you to please explain, what consti- tutes the difference, that you can so heartily support government bounty of two cents on sugar and yet oppose equally heartily, tariff on any other equal necessity of life. We await your answer.

ately without injury to the President or gentlemen composing his cabinet.
 If there is any one charge that Presi- dent Harrison is free from, it is that of being politician or of following their advice.
 The most serious trouble of his ad- ministration has arisen from this fact, and he is'a man of too strong character, and too just an appreciation of men, to at this late day become the ungrateiul politician, that A. c. R., would like to make him out.
 Turn your glow-worm brilliancy on things within it's reach, A. c. R., and do not imagine, that it will be mistaken for latest improved electric flash light.

A. c. k.

Of all the insipid trash, the article in the Prescott Courier of the 18th signed A. c. R., strikes us as being among the worst we ever saw. We are exceedingly glad that the Courier is printed SO far away from President Harrison. In the first place A. C. R's. article might hurt his feelings-that is President Harri sons. Then again President Harrison might feel that A. c. R. was inspired, and that his suggestions should be re- ceived in the nature of divine com mands; and so innocent persons, as the Cabinet officers certainly would be, made to suffer. Nothing but direct divine inspiration could account for the positive tone with which A. c. R. gives forth his oracular news.
 Can it be possible that Homo of Tomb stone and A. c. R. are one and the same Individual?
 '; It requires more than ordinary mortal intelligence to understand some portions of A. c. R's. undoubtedly correct state- ments. For instance he says:
 Noble is to get out of the Interior Depart ment because he exposed the rottenness of the Pension Bureau and is not in favor of giving to the distinguished progenator of Baby Mckee,"
 Just what rottenness in the Pension Bureau Noble exposed we are not told, nor are the demands of the "dstin- guished progenator" made known. A. c. k. without mercy relegates Wana- maker to his Sunday school and bargain counter" and without assigning any reason. A. C.. R. ought to have had consideration enough. to have at least hinted as to the excuse, upon which the President could have acted, in obe- dience to his commands. A. c. R's consideration for partner Miller" is coupled with such an unpleasant reason, Ito make room for stronger man" that A. c. R's permission to the Presi- dent to give "partner Miller" Ia Circuit Judgeship" is hardly a recom- pense for injured feelings.
 What ducks and drakes A. c. R.. would make with Republican admin iouatiVh 1T hio HlsutuidIt were dlIOWeu to become actual facts.
 Is there anything more absurd, than to hear a self opinionated ignoramus at- tempt to talk about something, that from the nature of things he cannot possibly be informed on.
 Here is a man, buried in the moun- tains of Arizona, that attempts to write about national matters, of which the best informed, if honest, must admit ig- norance.
 We beg pardon of Homo; his utter. ances have been too reasonable to sub ject him to the suspicion of his being A. c. R. A. c. R. is probably some grog shop hummer, whose inspiration comes from the free drinks he can get, and who at some period of his life, may have lived in Washington City, where, for summer amusement, the Presidents cabinet is organized and reorganized, but fortun-
