FORT SMITH, Ark, June ai.-Details
Of the horrible state Of affairs existing
In the mining region Of the Indian
territory have been brought to this
city by evicted miners, number Of
whom arrived yesterday. The stories
they tell Of oppression, hardship and
cruelty to themselves, their wives
and children by the deputy marshals
and federal troops are similar to those
which sometimes come from Siberia.
The men say that when It became ap-
parent that they could not earn o
living ut the reduced rate Of wages
and starvation was staring them and
their families in the face, power was
given the deputy marshals to eject
them from the company houses, and
the work Of eviction began. Many Of
the men were thrown bodily from
their homes, their wives and children
beaten and bruised and their furniture
and personal effects destroyed, after
which they were loaded into box cars
like cattle and shipped out of the ter
ritory.
The stories OF brutality told by the
men from the liartshorne district are
revolving in the extreme. August
Smith, one of the Hartshorne miners
says that troops came to his house and
arrested him. They would not allow
him to put on his shoes and coat, and
refused to let the the family eat break
fast. The soldiers threw his furni-
ture into o wagon and then asked
Smiths wife II she wanted to 60
NO" she sad; II have work ID for
this home, and If l leave you will
have to shoot me-"
1.-THE house was built by me and be-
longed to me-" said Smith, though |
had no legal title to II. The com.
mander ordered the privates to put
my wife and five children out.
They jumped ut her. one of them
pulling a knife. and took the babe
from her breast. Then four or five
dragged her out and threw her head
first into the wagon. We were then
c,rted to the station and put in the
box car with dozens Of Others Most
of the miners families were thrown
out early in the morning in
n driving rain, and no time given
them to dress or eat breakfast.
In one instance q family of four
were cvicted near Anderson. The
wife of the miner was struck over the
head with q Winchester and severely
maltreated BY the soldiers. The
woman was in u delicate state OF
health Mt the time and while being
cartcd To the railroad station gave
premature birth to child. She Is in
critical condition and may die"

WE ARE not much in the prophet line

point to the election of Judge Richard

Madison seems to be almost unanimous
for HIM and with such send off from

ness for the position, every body who
knows him knows that he will grace the
place and make one Of the most able
and useful members of the House. The
Judge is well known party man. one
of 'the :strictest sof the sect of Demo
