This table indicates a healthy con-
dition of the county treasury, and
displays the fruits of all the ''reduc-
ing" and "disallowing" of bills that
has characterized the work of our
board of commissioners for the past
year, and that has produced the indi-
vidual howl in so many particular
cases. Taxpayers who then found
fault with the commissioners may
now see how much better off they are
on account of the so-called penurious
policy of the commissioners. There
is always a class of public servants
who would be public leeches if
frugal methods and prudent manage
ment were not practiced to a heroic
degree by the %custodians of our pub
lie funds.
But it must be considered that a
prime cause of this improvement lies
in the increased valuation Of proper
ty, notably in the town of Neihart.
Real estate here doubled in value in
the years 81 and .. Thus the same
tax levy results in a vast increase OF
the public fund. Strange as it may
seem, the other parts of the county
are still combined to drive Neihar
out of the county, while it is well
known that she furnishes them tn,
largest part of their public revenue:
The principal receipts are enumer
ated as follows:

House Strip Bill Does Not Suit Ever

House Strip Bill Does Not Suit Every
body-Changes Are Desired.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The friends
of the Cherokee strip bill are receiving
a constant stream Of kicks on the
house bill. They come from Kansas
and Oklahoma mostly, but some put in
an appearance from all parts of the
country. The full text of the bill has
been thoroughly examined by the
thousands who expect to seek homes
in the country when opened to settle
ment, and they think now is the time
to offer suggestions if they hope to get
the bill as they want 1t.
The feature that most concerns them
is the provision not allowing anyone
to have more than So, 900 worth of per
sonal or real estate who settles or
land.
This is regarded as too much of q
pauper provision and that it would re
suit in the country being settled up by
a poor class, and that it is not especial
ly acceptable to the fellows now il
Oklahoma.
There is a general dissatisfaction ex
pressed also over the provision to sell
the land for more than ST. so per acre.
In fact there are many letters object
ing to every feature. There will be an
effort to nave some changes made a:
indicated in these dispatches, but nc
one hopes to be able to meet the re
quest for changes.

Buffalo, Indians and Outlaws Gone and
Stirring Tales Are Scarce.
There are man in the far western
states and territories, and very genial
fellows, too, when you meet them, in
whose ears the whistle of the locomo-
tive is an abominable sound. They are
men who crossed the plains in covered
wagons, and growing accustomed to
the freedom, the romance and the law.

Civilization as 1t prevails in the states
to the eastward seems too much like a
harness to them and they would fain
not wear it. They would have pre-
ferred to see the country remain wild
and u~ndcveloped, without railroads,
telegraph lines, farms, fences and laws,
and with enough Indians to produce
excitement on demand. Whatever of
feudalism crossed the Atlantic found
somewhat of n sphere for its activity on
the mountains, in the canyons and ON
the plains of the west, but all Is passing
away.
The pride which various western To-
calities lave taken in audacious outlaws
has been q marvel to many people liv-
ing in the orderly and more closely gov
erned communities of the east. This
was only because they could not appre-
ciate western conditions as they existed
the last generation. But Jesse James
ism, Youngerism and Daltonism is COM
ing to an end. A faint flicker of the
spirit that did homage to such boldness
is now seen out in Colorado where the
son OF the famous Kit Carson has had
the chains of the law at last fastened
on him, and omust submit to the sore
restraint of prison bars. Thrice tried
within a year for felony, he was twice
acquitted, even though it seemed that
the evidence adduced was conclusive Of
his guilt. Finally convicted, it was only
after great difficulty vas experienced
In getting a jury, since so many of the
men called acknowledged that they

But They Cannot Live Out of Water Unless
Kept Damp.
There are few more interesting in,
habitants of earth in the eyes of the
scientists than the ceratodus, a rare
fish, now found only in two rivers in
Australia, although in long times past.
as its remains in the rocks show, it in
habited Europe and other countries.
There are two other rare fishes re
lated to the ceratodus, n of which,
the l%epidosiren, has been discovered
only in the Amazon, while the other,
the protopterus, is not known outside
of tropical Africa.
The special interest in these fishes
arises from the fact that they possess
lungs as we'll as gills, and consequently
appear to represent an intermediate
condition of life between the fish and
amphibian.
The ceratodus enjoys the distinction
of having received a name through the
discovery of the fossil remains Of it's an

representatives of it's race were still

This strange animal is said to deposit
its eggs upon weeds growing in the

these eggs.

animal.
1t is a big fish, he says, sometimes at
tanning a length of ten feet or more
and is not good for food as has been re

Although it is furnished with a lung
for breathing, it does not voluntarily
leave the water, and if 1t gets out o:
the water it is practically helpless. II
a few hours after being removed from
the river it perishes unless it is KEEP

The great use of its lungs seems to bt
