To the Democrats of the Indian
Territory.

We, the democrats Of the Cherokee
nation, in convention assembled at
Ninita, l. T., May "A, 1892, send greet
ing to our brethren throughout the
Indian Territory, and express the hope
that they will join us in our efforts to
anchor ate - -eEdition c-ur people.
and TO secure Federal legislation that
viii be characterized by spirit of JUS
tice and fairness TO all.
An invitation has been extended to
the dem ocrats Of the Indian Territory
to send delegates to the National Dem
oeratic convention at Chicago, June 2l.
1892, and We believe that we should
avail ourselves of the oppor tunity TINS
offered US to secure the cooperation of
those who, TO a gleat extent, will shane
the Federal legislation affecting this
territory. We note with pleasure the
Efforts OF our brethren at South Nc
Alllster to get the work of organization
started, as shown in their call "to CON-
slider he adrisabllity of sending dele
gates TO the next National convention
OF the democratic party at Chicago. on
June p, 1882. While, owing to the
shOrtness of the time between the
making of said call and the sitting of
the convention, there were so few del
egates from other places, that the con
ventlOn could scacely be called rep
resentatiye one, yet We believe that
the agitation Of the question ar the
time was wise and jgdicious step.
We believe that the delegates sent to
the National convention shou Id voice
! the sentiments of the democracy of
the entire territory, and to that end
We would earnestly urge all democrats.
residents of the Indian Territory. to
/ elect delegates and join US in a terri
l tori a. convention to be held at Musko-
gee, at , o'clock, p. m, on Saturday
June II, 1892, for the purpose of dis
/ cussing matters Of interest to ourselves
and the people generally, and to select
delegates to the National Democratic
! convention to be held at Chicago on
June =, lS52. With this in view we
would suggest that calls be made at
various points roughout the Indian
territory by representative democrats
for convention at such times and places
as to the callers may seem best, for the
/ purpose Of electing delegates TO the
I Territorial convention mentioned
/ above, with full power to act for the
/ democrats at the various points on
matters Of general interest and to Sc
lect delegates to represent the demo-
Gratis of the Indian Territory at the
Chicago convention. As basis of
represention at the Territorial conven-
tion we would suggest one delegate to
every 2OO0 residents of the Territory as
by the Federal census of 1890. Wit

a Pluckr Marshal

A dispatch from the west tell of 4
bloody fight between 4 deputy mar
shal named +. L. Drake, ami two out
laws named VIM. Miller and VIM. Hos
tetter. Both OF the latter were killed
and The marshal. il Is thought, NOR
tally Wounded. The fight occurred on
Deep Fork, beyond Sapulpa, when the
outlaws were informed by the marshal
that they were wanted for horse steal
ing; they opened fire upon him killing
his horse from under him and wound
ing him in the thigh and side, but Drake
shot them both dead, killing Miller at
distance Of two hundred yards after
he (Drake) had. fallen to the ground.
The fathers Of the dead desperadoes
were teleCraphed to, and they came
and conveyed their bodies to Golden
City, No, for burial. They were
thought to be two of the most desper-
ate characters that ever roamed the
western border, and are part of an Or
ganized band of which the Daltons are
members.

1t seems Eometmes that there is no profess
sion in which there is so much humbug as in
that OF education; and the utter inability of
the parent to determine what kind of school
il is into which he decides to put his little
girl, has 10 those who stand behind the scenes
very much OF the pitif1l- One is reminded of
the nursemaid who never stood in need of a
thermometer for the water for the baby's bath
because If the baby came out red she knew il
had been too hot, and if it came out blue she
knew it had been too cold. Too many a
father finds, when it Is too late, that he
made mistake in the school to which he
trusted the training OF his little girl. For
girl to have been at some schools for any
length of Zine is certificate of frivolity,
lack OF consistent purpose and thorOughness
and. what is of far more consequence, of
any real reverence for truth of her own wom-
anhoOd.
