IA taken Of tho fact. IL seems probable
In advance oiaotion, that the presen

La Governor McKinley's case it was
scarcely concealed that the expec1a'
ton was that, n successful In the race,
It would make him the logical candl.

GfoHyenor, on assuming his duties
delivered AN extended audteis, chiefly
devoted TO tho tariff, giving the
keynote for the platform tor Mckinley

on tho wisdom OF the Mckinley

came in irco under IL, while at the
came time protecting the American
industries, aud declared thAt II thp
Democrats attempted to pass an al
valorem tariff, tnoy would have 70
make the rats 30 per cent all around,
leaving nothing on the lrOe list. He
attributed the present hard times not

apprehension that the Democrats Will
carry out their pledge In regard 10 up

ton and reciprocity the twin coutsors
Of American prosperity.

Senator Sherman writing from
Washington said that matters Of bust.

VERY COMPLICATED.

One of the most prominent members OF
the Guthrie bar was 1t the Carey last
night and in an interview on the condition
of affAirs in Oklahoma in legal status
stated that they were somewhat compli-
Gated. In reply to \ question regarding
the admission of L n. Terrill to bail he
remarked that the recent decision Of the
Kansas supreme court to the effect that in
every case where the Judge of the court
was not present on the first day Of term
of court, and the clerk adjourned court
until the arrival Of the Judge. the term be
came imperative and all proceedings were
illegal and void, will be the result OF many
complications in this territory. Under the
decision L n. Terrill, under sentence for
life has been returned to Saltwater, where
several Of the illegal terms of court were
held. and will have to be tried over cost
ing the county many thousands Of dollars
and perhaps resulting in the release Of the
prisoner. Scores of civil cases and half
hundred or more minor criminal cases
must be tried over, and extra expense ell
tailed for jury and court official expenses
will be heavy expense upon the tax
payers. A number of people were granted
divorces at these terms Of court, and as
most of them have since married again
they are in peculiar predicament for the
divorce not being legal neither is the mar
riage that followed, and all are guilty OF
bigamy.

SOCIETY's SLAVES,
We should have good deal Of compassion
For the woman who keeps up the fashion,
For she has moro to wear

We should have good deal Of compassion
For tho woman who keeps up tho fashion.
For she has moro to wear
Than ten men can bear.
And keep their fortunes from crashin'.
Then to think that society's many dupes,
Bend the knee every time that she stOops,
Aud the weight that she bears,
The games aud the snares,
That her street-sweepers gather in groups.
As they sweep up the stubs of cigars,
And the guilds that are swept from the cars,
BY the skirts as they drag,
Without hitch or sag,
Like the COW that steps over the barr
Then to See how society gawks,
And to hear how society talks,
About family cares,
Little curses sna swears,
That collect in the street as she walks.
Then let us have the kindliest feeling
For the one to whom fashion is kneeling,
For its only her skirts,
That drag in the dirt,
To the gutter where the drunkard is Keeling.
So its with careworn feelings of emotion,
For those who court fashions devotion,
Where seclety's drudges.
Neither bitches nor budgeS
Till fashion puts them in motion.
Then fill up with tender compassion,
For tie woman who carries the fashion;
For she's socie,y's slave,
Which no one can save
From the shore where destruction Is lashin'.
