THE OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE.

Our dispatches from Guthrie announce
the organization of both houses Of the
territorial legislature and characterize
the members thereof as intelligent and
competent men, and that it will prove
to be essentially 4 business body. The
good people of Oklahoma are to be con
graduated upon these points of assur-
ance. The last legislature, which was
the first, was not a credit to the terri
tory in its makeup for intelligence, IN
tegrity and patriotism: the territory has
been handicapped in many ways Tor the
past two years under the operation ol
ill-advised and iunglesome legislation,
but the experience will serve the new
legislature The good purpose Of guarding
il against similar mistakes, while it will
have little difficulty in correcting the IN
congruities and crudities of existing en-
actments. The EAGLE cOngratulates the
legislature upon the suspicious outlook
for an harmonious and profitable session.

In the death of Benjamin f. Butler,
The most unique character known to
American history, perhaps, passes from
view. Since his advent into public life,
which occurred nearly half a century
ago, he has been a conspicuous figure
He has occupied exalted positions in al
most every department of our socio-poli-
cal system and in every casewith marked
ability. And yet, with all in all he
manifested much OF the elements Of the
crank. Benjamin Butler viii pass into
history IN connection with many Of the
stirring events and epoChs of the coun-
tIy if not by virtue Of his own strong
Snd impressive personality.

CDR J. c. Graham, baeteriologist of

Brooklyn Standard Union, ''has investl-
gated bank note of 1873, and his re
port shows that the bill had thirteen
colonies of two kinds of bacteria. The
doctor says that it still remains TO de-
termine the nature of the various mi
crobes." Perhaps the presence of these
lively little colonists in that class of the
circulating medium accounts for the
rapidity of its travels and the difficulty
most people have in holding it.

The Topeka dispatches yesterday an
nounced that all the state officers except
Treasurer-elect Biddle had taken the
prescribed oath and entered upon the
discharge of their official duties. The
bond required of the state treasurer is in
the sum of 81, 900, 900. and the makers
of the bond must qualify to being worth
double that amount Mr.. Biddle had
failed to secure such a bond, in the
estimation of the old executive council.
which accounts for his failure TO qualify.
The new council is composed of men
and officers in political sympathy with
that official and this circumstance will
no doubt very materially aid him in Sc
curing the requisite Endorsement.

Another tiller Of the soil who owns
broad wheat fields and no end OF corn,

also who has hay and cats
for sale wants the earth, and they all

want to hold on to their laying hens and

The possibilities in the boundless
field Of electricity continue to attract
the attention of all enlightened people.
After the wonderful discoveries OF the
last half century in this peculiar force
which wise providence has distributed
SO abundantly throughout all nature,
ono might DO pardoned for thinking the
electrician had reached the height OF
his power, and but little else OF practi-
cal usefulness to mankind could possibly
DO developed. The telegraph and tele.
phone have practically annihilated
space. We converse with our friends
and recognize the familiar voice, III
though separated by hundreds OF miles.
We hold intercourse with business as
sociates separated by continents and
oceans.
1t is rapidly becoming the great mo.
tive power OF the world and specialists
OF to-day tell US that electricity will
surpass steam as steam surpassed the
stage coach. The farther We penetrate
this unexplored wilderness, the grander
and richer becomes its treasures, until
We are led into that boundless universe
only limited by the power of God.
Let us rejoice in the history Of the
past, but let us wrest what We can from
the storehouse OF the future. To-day
marks the commencement OF new era
in progress, and the Wheeling Bakery
displays throughout the city its new
Electric Bread, the greatest health food
in the world. You will find this new
discovery OF greater benefit 10 hu.
manity than all that have preceded it,
Baked in special large five cent size,
with their seal attached to each loaf.
