COUNTY o REPUBLICANS
Hold Their First Conven ion and Adopt
Ringing Resolutions.

Special Dispatch to the Daily Eagle.
WAUKCMIs, o. T., May 12-At the first
Republican county convention held in
''O'' county. at this place today, the fol-
lowing resolutions were passed:
First-That we, more than ever before
since the assault made on the American
flag at Sumpter in 1861, see and feel for
the American nation of people the abso-
Lutte demand and necessity for Republican
rule over American pursuit to comfort
and happiness.
Second-Tnat we here with the greatest
earnestness, most heartily indorse the
American platforms of the Republican
party proclaimed and published at former
national conventions, on all questions
which effect our progress and the pros
perity and comfort of the artisan class of
the American people, whether native or
foreign born.
Third-That we denounce the present
Democratic administration as the culm;n-
alton of Democratic incompetency, to meet
the demand of a progressive American
people, whose national greatness entities
them to a station higher in life than the
serf labor of Europe. whose poverty and
untitled birth breatheS the right OF no
higher elevation.
Fourth-That we denounce the present
editions of the Democratic party, as a clean
time honored statemen and national
benefactors, jefferson and jackson, but
estimate the present edition to be an off
shoot OF that wing of the grand old party
which sacrificed every principle to the ad
vantage of sectionaljsm and class, and
would willingly and tried TO shoot down
the present aud most honored flag that
ever kissed the breeze of civilized progress,
10 build up the most hated aristocracy and
perpetuate the most inhuman cruelty.
Fifth-We denounce the present ad-
ministration of the Democratic party in
its meddlesome efforts TO strike down
American industries and iDaugurate an
army of tramps, by the proposed delega-
ton against the greatest and grandest
bulwork of our American artisan and
American capitol, that is our protective
legislation as promulgated III the bill in-
troduced by that gIandest living states
man and benefactor To American interest,
w. b. Mckinley.
SiXth-That we are in favor of early
statehood for this fairest land Oklahoma,
and extend abroad our highest conSidera-
tions for the noble men and women who
have made their permanent homes on her
soil
Seventh-That We heartily indorse the
conduct and actions of our present con-
gressional representative. Dennis Flynn,
and absolutely and uncompromsingi
favor his return TO congress rs our repre-
sentative.
Resolved, That this convention tenders
its thanks and acknowledges the highest
appreciation 10 the Republicans and citi-
Zens OF W aukomis for the hospitable man
ner and preparations made to entertain
the delegates of this convention.

AFTER THE NEXT SEA FIGHT.
The Victor Liable to He Embarrassed In
Disposing of His Prize.

Disposing OF His Prize.
When one battle ship captures
another in midocean in the next naval
war. what is she to do with her prize.
asks the Philadelphia Times. In the
old days of wooden walls there was no
difficulty in the practice. If the cap
tured ship could float prize crew was
put aboard and all practicable sail was
made for the nearest friendly port,
while the victor continued on her
cruise: or, if both ships were badly in
iured, both put into harbor. But now
adays the position of prize crew
would be far from commanding. The
captured vessel could not be managed
by her captors-she would have to re-
main in charge Of her own engineers
and her own firenen, and the victors,
instead of sailing the ship, while the
prisoners remained under matches,
would be reduced to the status of po-
lice, and thus would the opportunity
for recapture be greatly increased.
For, while in the old days the entire
captured crew were disarmed and i'm
prisoned, the noncombatants of cap
turcd battle ship would have to be
given their lib erty, practically speak
ing, and much might be accomplished
by couple of second engineers with
their wits about them For instance,
would it be so difficult to superinduce
a slight explosion in the port engine
and under cover of the confusion to
liberate the prisoners? Again, the
-
would complicate affairs. Relatively
to the powers of a machine gun the
prize crew would be greatly dispropor-
tiopate in strength, since the chances
for the prisoners to obtain control OF
one of these engines would be in
creased by the freedom of their non
combatants.
Altogether the number of men re-
quired for police duty on captive bat
tie ship would be very large. and a vic
torious ship would have to reduce the
efficiency of her own gun crews to an
unpleasant extent. 1t would probably
be found necessary IN almost every
case for the captor to stand by and &C
company Der prize home across the At
Iantic or the Pacific, as the case might
be. And this would bea double incen-
tive to the conquered to effect swift
and noiseless recapture of their own
ship, for if they did SO one unexpected
torpedo or discharge of a twelve-inch
gun, carefully aimed, might very easily
turn the fortune of war entirely in
their favor. In other words, and not
to define too closely upon the POSSIBLE
flies of the case, the capture of a bat
tie ship in an ocean duel in the next
naval war will by no means ease the
mind of the successful commander. He
will have 1eviathan on his hands
that it will tax all his energy and clev-
erness to bring safely into port, and
there may be moments when he will
be tempted to lock up every mothers
son of her engineers and fremen in
the military tops and run her home un-
der jn<y sails.

IN the country about dusk and hitched
his horse. He told them who he was
and asked if he might. stay there over
night. Missouri hospitality is generally
understood from the southern hotel
down to the humblest cot.
Paddock was invited to come right in
and make himself at home. He had .
good, honest supper and chatted on cheer
fully with the elder Tafts till bedtime,
and then tine old lady brought him q
Bible to read q chapter from. This was
what he had come for.
Paddock saw right away that there
was no family record in that Bible, and
so he said he could not read such fine
print as that. Old man Taft asked him
if he used glasses. Yes, he used glasses,
but he had left his own somewhere or
other, he said. So the old man offered
his, but they did not fit. Then the old
lady brought hers out, but they didn't
help him.
1t was a long time before he succeeded
in making them bring out the family
Bible with large print, but at last they
did so. He looked slowly through it for
a suitable chapter, keeping his eye out
for the family record. When he found
the place for it, he turned cold to the
ends of his toes, for it had been torn out.
He read chapter, but his heart was
not in it, and if ever hollow mockery
of a prayer was constructed very likely
Paddock did it ON that occasion. He
went home the next day and hired out
on farm at $13 per month and found.
From politics the conversation grad
ually drifted into discussion Of courts
and justice as it is generally ladled out
in our glorious republic. Mr.. Hawley
Smith then told of long trial in his
state where prominent embezzler who
stood high in felonious circles was in
dicted on q counts, having been busily
robbing the bank and the depositors,
widows and orphans, servant girls and
old people for IS years.
The trial was continued and adjourn
cd. put over and the venue changed. to-
gether with all the other smart things
known to lawyers who are being well
paid, until finally, in spite of time and
eternity, both of which had been pretty
we'll consumed, the jury, greatly to the
surprise of the court, found the defend
ant guilty on the whole "a indictments.
The evidence was all that way, of course,
but the case had been on hand so long
that the judge did not think defendant
would be found guilty.
He was therefore thunderstruck when
the verdict came in. He said that he
would take the matter under advisement
for "a hours before passing sentence.
After the time had expired the judge
took his seat on the wool sack, wearing a
clean collar and a look of almost angelic
purity.
The bailiff opened the court, and the
judge took fresh chew of navy tobacco.
Prisoner at the bar" he said, adjust

the sentence of the court is that the
