his name stamped upon a coin of the

that the coin would be returned to

Troup came to this country. More

nothing more about the circumstance.

Information has just been received
Of the brutal treatment to which Rob-
ert Gillilant, a settler on the Cherokee
strip was subjected at the hands of
two bandits supposed to belong to the
Dalton gang. They rode up to within
fifty feet of his dugout, which is loca-
ted on Coon Creek, and called him by
name. AS soon as he opened the door
he was covered with two Winchesters,
and ordered to "hands up" Instead of
complying he fell back into the build
ing, the door closing after MIN. After
firing several shots they went in and
demanded his money, and when he re-
fused they tied him to the floor with
barb wire and went through his boxes,
in which were sl32. After securing
his money, his gun and his watch they
left him alone in that condition, miles
from another habitation. He at last
succeeded in extricating himself.

Tho perversity Manifested by tho Dems-
cratic Senate.

CRATIC senate.
Day by day II is becoming more and
more apparent that the democratic
party Is swinging back into the free
trade principles II aroused before the
rebellion, and which Il has so loudly
denied for years past. The following
extracts from the Washington Post
show the force of the drift:
The free trade element in the house
IS feeling pretty good over the present
status Of the tariff fight, which is
causing them but little discomfort of
mind. II the senate persists In its
spirit of perversity. they say. and tho
tariff bill fails In conference there Is
still time TO formulate new measure.
According To Mr.. De Witt Warner
(democrat), of New York. they are
making converts among the conserva-
tive element of the house, who are
daily hearing from the people in tho
shape of advice To stick to democratic
principles and force the senate TO come
to terms The longer the deadlock
continues" said Mr.. Warner, "the
more the people of the country will
become aroused. and time alone Is re-
quired TO teach the senate that IL Is
hopelessly in the minority in this
fight
The house has been nearer TO q
surrender" he said, than IL will ever
be again. Do think that the house
will finally triumph? do emphatically.
All over the country the county pa
pers-and they represent the people
m cNunfro ont ad;tnrfoli,, aoafnat tho
position taken by the senate. That
body could not have chosen n more i'm
opportune time to go against the
wishes OF the great bulk of the demo-
cratic masses than the present. IL Is
in no position 10 maintain fight But
II the bill should fail, why congress is
still In session. IL might not be good
policy for us now To take up new bill
or to pass a series OF bills TO revise the
tariff. IL would seem too much like n
desire on our part 10 add 10 the COM
plications but in my opinion this will
be done before tariff reform is aban-
doned. When that time comes the
senate will be called upon TO deal with
q measure or with measures, as tho
case may DO, that will be far more
radical than the Wilson bill.
Representative Champ Clark dem }
spoke In the same vein. THE Wilson
bill did not go far enough TO suit most
democrats" said Mr. Clark. "but we
thought when we passed that that we
had gone to the limit OF concession.
The action OF the senate, IL IL means
to deadlock proceedings, will leave US
ample time to pass new bill. There
are seventy-nine free traders in the
house, and IL was their work that
made the Wilson bill as liberal as ID
Is. I'll tell you what could be done
readily proceed on the Springer plan
and instruct the ways and means COM
mittee to bring in separate bills in tho
direction OF tariff reform. III this pol
Icy had been followed from the start
there would have been none Of this
wrangling and the Mckinley bill
would have been reformed just the
same. Something OF this sort may
happen yet before congress adjourns."
