WISCONSIN.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 9.--The result
In Wisconsin is still In doubt. Both
. sides claim the state. Chairman
Payne, of the Republican commit
tee, claims about 10000 plurality fol-
Harrison and Spooner. Chairman
Wall, of the Democratic committee,
stands by his claim of 1900 for
Cleveland and Peck.
MINNESOTA.
| ST.. PAUL, Nov. 9.-The count in
this city is extraordinary slow in
some precincts; only $50. Votes are
counted out of 700, up to "a. m.
These votes and meagre returns from
the state, show fusion electors run
ming behind regular Democratic
electors, and that the Weaver vote
will not be heavy. Nelson, (Repub-
lican) for governor, estimated to
have at least 10000 plurality. Har-
rison probably has all electors.
NEW YORK REVIEW.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9.--The latest
Tribune extra says: The election of
president may develop in the house
of representatives. Congress is
Democratic by clear majority of
about so. New YORK is Democratic
by not less than 10000, and has
elected a Democratic assembly.
New Jersey is Democratic by 5000 to
5000, but Kean (Republican) for gov
ernor, claims his election. Connec-
ticut is Democratic by not less than
1000, and has chosen Democratic
governor and legislature. Massachu-
settles has chosen Harrison electors
and probably Republican state
ticket. All the rest of New Eng
land is Republican.
In Republican headquarters it is
still held to be uncertain whether or
not the solid South is broken.
WHAT THE "sUN" SAYS.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9-Sun extras
say Cleveland carried the solid
South, Connecticut, by 1000 or more,
New York state by $4,000, New
Jersey by 5000, Delaware by over
10000, Indiana by 5000, Illinois by
10000, Wisconsin by 10000. Wea-
yer carried Colorado, Idaho, Nevada

successor to Senator Hiscock.

Oregon's First Paper.
TuRNER, Or, Nov. s, 1892.
EDITOR JOURNAL: j noticed an
item in the JOURNAL recently, which
gives the Oregonian as the first
paper published In Oregon. This is
an error. The first paper was the
Oregon Spectator, which was started
at Oregon City In 1916.
The first number of the Spectator
l ever saw was in McKinlay's store
IN Oregon City, about the Goth of
December, ls47, a few days after l
reached Oregon City. The second
paper was the Oregon Weekly Times,
published at Milwaukee, In 1885, and
afterwards moved 10 Portland. Then
came the 0regonian.
Believing the right should pre-
vail, l give this rs matter OF

1T was argued at the Claremore
meeting last week that a survey
of the Cherokee lands meant allot-
ment and therefore council should
not ask for a surveJ. A survey OF
this country into sections need not
necessarily mean allotment and if
it had been done years ago it would
have been of untold-benefit to all.
II certainly would be difficult for
any one to state reasonable grounds
for opposing a survey into sections
Of the lands of the Cherokee ma
tion. Nothing is more common
than TO hear the complaint of a
citizen that he does not know
where his lines will run, or that
be does not know where to build
his house or other permanent inn
provements. The time is fast
approaching when the improve
ments OF all must be confined to
the limits of each ones pro rata
share, and it is worse than folly
for anyone to argue that it is best
to contiue without lines, as this
people was wont to do when they
we're less civilized and owned land
in unlimited quantities.

FIRST time easily accessible TO tour

established from Flagstaff, Ariz.,

the most imposing part Of the Can

stage fare for the round trip is only
$1,000, and meals and comfortable
lodgings are provided throughout
the trip at reasonable price. The
view OF the Grand Canon afforded
at the terminus of the stage route
is the most stupendous panorama
known in nature. There is also a
trail at this point leading down
the Canon wall, more than 5000
feet vertically, to the river below

or two other points made by my
friend Mccarthy and close.
Bro. Mccarthy tells you that in
1920 large surplus had accumu-
lated in the United States treasury
and that ,his was distributed
among the 5everal states and that
Connecticut set her share aside for
q school fund for common schools.
That is true and we are free to adj
NIT that she acted wisely. II was
gift to her she never sold a
part of her territory to obtain it
and we promise you that we will
go and do likewise If the govern
ment will do by uo as she did by
her. AS we already have more
set aside for school purposes than
Connecticut, in proportion to
wealth and population, we think
it better policy for our children to
apply that money towards improv-
ing their share of the common do
main that is now disappearing so
rapidly under our prodigal son
policy. Mr.. Mccarthy virtually
tells Us that the south has no COM
mon school system. "The north
educates the common people the
south educates only those children
whose parents can afford to send
them away from home" quote
your language and | must say that
/ am surprised that such language
should emanate from the head of
one of our institutions Of learning.
All the southern states have their
common school systems and edu-
cate all alike, without regard to
race OF color. / thought that this
fact was known to everybody but
it seems not. 1t is also true that
for climatic among other reasons a
great many southern children have
been sent north to complete their
educations but il is not because
they are without such facilities at
home; nor is it true that the north
has led the south in craftsmanship.
The grand old state Of Virginia
gave to the world a Washington
and that alone gives her the lead
forever; but that event was follow
ed by FIVE of the most illustrious
presidents that adorn the annals
of history among them a Jefferson,
the author of the declaration Of
independence and the father Of
the University of Virginia. as well
as the greatest statesman the
world has ever produced. There
is Patrick Henry whose eloquence
set the ball of the revolution in
motion, and Henay Clay, whose
brilliant oratory kept the U. S.
Senate entranced for thirty years,
all the product of one southern
state. The south is now and al
ways has been fully abreast with
the times and shrinks from no
comparison of great names or great
achievements.
Yours for the right,

The animosity that our leaders

time has been when we had a right

LAST week, at Claremore, a
mass meeting was held, and the
Vinita resolutions were taken up
and discussed, and the three first
voted down by good strong ma
iority. Those who took the lead in
the discussion were Captain Jack
son, Attorney General Hastings,
L. B. Bell, G. w. Benge, Isaac
Mode, and others. 1t was conten-
ed by Bell, Jackson, and Hastings
that our present system of taxa
tion was faultless and should be
continued. These same gentlemen
opposed paymen OF the proceeds
of the sale of the Strip direct to
the people, taking the position
that the Cherokees were fully com.
petent 10 handle their own funds.
The proposition to survey the
lands was voted down, also. The
section demanding a delegate on
the floor Of congress was sustained,
with all the other requests ret
forth by the Vinits meeting.
