A DEPLoRABLE CONDITION.


The settlement of the Cherokee
strip is an accomplished fact. The
mad rush Of the "boomers" for land
lots was made at noon last Satur-
day.. and 100000 acres Of public
land is now populated with over
10000 adventurous settlers. But
the condition of the boomers may
be considered deplorable in the ex-
treme. In the first place there are
at least ten men for every claim in
the strip, and the great majority
are thus disappointed at the outset.
Ever since going on the strip the
boomers have been driven from
point to point by vast prairie fires,
in which many have lost their lives,
and they are without shelter, food,
OF water. What few water courses
there are in the strip have all dried
up, and water is said to be selling
at 10 cents a glass, while bread is
so cents a loaf in some portions OF
this so-called paradise" 1t is too
late to attempt to mature crop this
fall, and few of the settlers have
enough to live on until a crop can
be grown next year. The land fol
which they have already endured
SO much hardship is by no means
desirable as a place for a home, as
the present drouth there is sale
not to be exceptional, and is liable
to occur every year.. The entire Ne
gion is arid and the land is said no
to be productive. The outlook il
this new Territory is thus far from
encouraging, and much suffering j
sure to occur there this winter.

Talk of Organizing a Stock Company for
the Above Purpose at Camden.
We learn that there is. some talk
Of organizing a stock company to
establish a broom factory at this
place. Some Of our resolute citi-
zens, who feel the need and import
ance of such an enterprise, have
been prospecting with the above
object in view. Camden would be
an excellent point for such an es-
tablishmept, and we hope they are
discussing the enterprise with the
intent to make it a success. 1t has
been suggested that number Of
our citizens take stock in the bust

This sum, which is all that would be
required, it is believed, to get the
necessary machinery, ETC., could be
easily raised provided our farmers
could have the privilege the first
year of paying for their shares in
broom-corn. We hope that Mr.. G.
B. Greer, who, we learn, first sug.
gested such an enterprise, will MOI
abandon the idea of it's establish.

by looking around and acquainting
the people with his plans and pur
poses, that they will give him al
the encouragement he wants. By
all means, lets have the broom fac

THE MASK REMOVED.

The leaders Of the party which
has SO long posed as the friends Of
sound money have at last shown
their hand, and it is now perfectly
understood that the Republicans in
the Senate threaten to defeat whole
some and necessary financial legis-
lation because. of the attitude of the
Democrats toward the Mckinley
law. They are said to be organic
ing among themselves to defeat the
Wilson bill for the repeal of the
bullion purchasing clause of the
Sherman law unless the so-called
sound money Democrats will agree
not to disturb the Mckinley law.
For the sake of their pledges to the
tariff barons the Republicans will
sacrifice every interest of the peo-
pie, and they propose to exhaust
every appliance For delay of needed

times has an eye to pleasure as well as
business, replied to the advertisement.
A lengthy correspondence ensued which
developed such interest that Mr. Hooten,

of visiting the Standard Sewing Machine
Company, at Dayton, Ohio, of which he
is the efficient agent, visited Miss Steppe

NOT A TINE TO eRuMsLE.


1t seems natural for some people
to grumble and complain of "hard
times" but the fact is the people
of this county know nothing about
hard times, IN the strict sense Of
the word. In the first place the
farmers Of Benton County have
learned to live at home, and unless
visited by an absolute famine they
will never suffer in times Of panics
and financial disasters. There is a
demand and sale for everything the
farmers Of this county can produce,
from bushel Of fruit or grain to a
carload of corn OF a drove Of mules.
And again, the timber industry of
Benton County pays more revenue
than the income of many counties.
The sale Of timber has been almost
a constant source of revenue for
the past five years, and we are safe
in saying that it will continue fol-
many years to come.

A FROG cannot breathe with its mouth
open. Its breathing apparatus is SO

laws 90 that they cannot shut
