| The now somewhat notorious Dossett
case is summarized briefly, thus: AT a
dance in the Usage country last fall were
present Clementine Donoya and her two
| lovers, John Dossett and Sherman Long
Long took sick and suddenly died. but
| before his death accused bis rival OF
| poisoning him. AT Guthrie Monday the
| jury in the case of the United States vs..
John Dossett brought in a verdict of muir

United States marshals who are now
prowln this county arrested three Shaw
nee Indians last Monday and took them
direct 20 Guthrie. without giving them an
opportunity to give bail here Among the
number was JoGn Spybuck, one of the
leading citizens Of this county and man
who is easily able to give bail IL any
amount required. These marshais are
now engaged in arrestlng the Indians for
giving liquor TO each other, aod all the

amounts, and is costing the people here,
who are not able to bear the expenses, a
great deal. 1t is an outrage and imposi-
ton on the people, and fraud on the
government, but little removed from
thieviug.

Larned land Office was terribly corrupt and
Scott determined to weed it out. The
fight had not gone far before he concluded
to he register himself. 1t WAS a notable
fight but be won with some of the big
men Of the country actively fighting him.
When Cleveland was beaten he of course
went out The next move was TO run for
ind, nd in a
trct he was only beaten by a few votes, and
this because his name was not spelled cor
rectly. He has published several books
and has been in Oklahoma less than "A
