GIVES ruE TRICK AWAY.

Grand Master Workman Sovereign
of the Kin ghts of Labor is likely TO
spend several weeks in October in Ok
lahoma In behalf of his friend Ralph.
The Knights have taken up the case
and determined TO go into politics TO
get Ralph in Congress. Representa-
tive, Pop organ.
This explains the matter. Every
body in Oklahoma, except the coterle
Of political tricksters who were given
charge of the scheme to carry 1T into
effect, have wondered and wondered
how it happened that Beaumont, the
peripatetic quack, should casually
drop down into oklahoma and almost
instantly secure the nomination OF a
political party for congress.
The Representative gives the whole
thing away. The Knights Of Labor were
demagogued into taking him up, and
having no show of electing him any
where else, they sent him off out here
TO 1atter the Populists of Oklahoma
into the notion that he was theil
Moses, raised up specially to lead them
What the knights OF Labor and Popu
lists Of Oklahoma have in common II
the way OF the interests or demands
for the welfare OF the people in gen
cral or of this territory, that is no
held and advocated by the Democratic
party, is past comprehension. Ih'
truth is there is none. If the Popu
lists of Oklahoma have any matter o.
especial concern TO them as aifectin!
any local interest, why did they no
cntrust such matter to the hands o
such Of their own home men %
straightforward and intelligent SPUR
Pulliam, or versatile George Garden
hire? men who came TO the territor,
al the first and who are familiar Wit
its every interest and requirement. AM
men who are better qualified to repre-
sent them than the ablest alien in th
land.
That the people of Oklahoma hav
been grossly imposed upon in thi
matter cannot be denied and is ad
mitted by many in that party VIII
feel the sting of the deception.
Populists of Oklahoma, will yo
suffer yourselves to be made cat
paw Of to serve the selfish purposes
foreign secret organization and d'
signing individuals? As mtelligen
self-respecting citizens, will you?

OF the many paternalistic schemes
that have from time 10 time been sug-
gested by Popul list reformers adopted
by that party as platform principles
aud urged as necessary changes in our
economic system, none have been
more persistently advocated than gov
ernment owns rship and coatrol of tn e
railroads of the country, The i'm
practicability Of such a thing from a
purely business standpoint TO say
nothing Of its demoralizing effects
upon the community, must be so plain
to thinking people as not to need
argument To demonstrate IL.
But the idea is not original with
Populists. nor new. 1t has been tried
in many countries other than the Uni
ted states and in some of the states
here, and the universal experience has
been unsatisfactory, though in few
instances, in other countries, the
policy is still partially maintained.
Under a resolution adopted by the
senate at its last session the inter
state commerce commission has com
piled some data regarding ownership
OF railroads by foreign governments.
The statement, just issued, shows that
three governments own part Of their
rail ways but do not operate any, leas
ing all the mileage owned To private
companies Ten countries DO not owl
or operate any railroads, and eighteeI
partly own and exercise partial con
troi of the railways.
As TO rates charged for freight and
passenger service by roads owned an'
controlled by government and priyat
companies relatively, the facts eite'
in connection with such roads affor'
little encouragement to advocates o
government ownership In three 0

THE most casual observer Of current
political events cannot but have
noticed, with all Of The bluff and blus-
ter Of Republican speakers and
writers about what that party has
done for the benefit Of the country
and what Democrats have done TO its
injury, that those declaimers indulge
only In bold assertions, never once
producing proof or evidence to sub
stantiate what they assert. They are
simply fooling themselves il they sup.
pose they are fooling anybody else.

the average is 2.le cents. The relative
freight charges are on the same ratio

The most conspicuous examples Of
state ownership OF railways in this
country have been ia Georgia and
Illinois. though some other states
have experimental along the same
lines. and with similar experiences.
In the SOS the state of Georgia needed
an outlet TO the north, but the north
ern portion of the state was so rugged
and mountainous that private enter
prise and capital hesitated To under
take the work, owing TO the great
cost Of constructing the road The
state built and equipped the line from
Atlanta to Chattanooga, and while 1T
dia an immense amount OF business
r,on the day it was completed, the
state soon found that 1t had a white
elephant on its hands in the manage
nent Of the road and leased 1T to
private company and has never since
that time exercised any control over
e. further than TO require the pay
mcpt Of rentals. Illinois experience
is very much the same as Georgia.

THE people Of oklahoma want to
Keep ia mind The fact that it was the
Republican party that changed the
uniform practice of the government
under Democratic control, Of giving the
people free homes upon government
lands, the public domain. Having
made the change and put in practice
the policy OF selling the public lands
to settlers, IL is folly to expect the
Republicans odo anything that would
help the honest settler TO acquire IA
home without paying the government
as much for the land as it would cost
him at private sale from a private
land holder. Free homes for the
homeless is one of the principal planks
in Joe Wisby's platform and he will
carry it out in good faith when he
goes to Washington.

A DEo1s1oN MAKES TROUBLE.
Purchasers at Receivers Sale Must
Return the Property.

Brunswick. Ga. Aug 24.-The recent
decision Of the supreme court which set
aside the sale Of property of the Bruins
wick Street Railroad Company made by
Receiver Berrie somtime ago has caused
a great deal Of discussion. The decision
will probably cause many complications.
Some months ago Receiver Berrie, acting
under order Of Glyuu's superior court. sold
the entire property, including street
car lines, cars, mules, build
lngs and steamboats,, both in
Brunswick and on St. Simons
Island to the highest bidder The pur-
Chasers then went before the court and
had the sale confirmed, the bOnGhOlders
protesting. Feeling secure in the confirm
alton OF the sale, however. the purchas-
eTs let others in on a speculation, and
then commenced selling the property.
The steamers, Pope Catliu and Egmont,
which ply between st. SimOns and Bruins
wick, were sold and warranty deeds
given, and the street car mules
were sold out to various indi-
viduals- The purchasers of the steam
boats spent several hundred dollars
in repairing them, and the purchasers of
the mules have them scattered in various
parts OF the county. Receiver Berrie is
left IN quandary. The money be re
ceived from the sale has been disOursed
to various parties holding claims against
the company, and no money is now in
sight to REIN nurse the original purchasers
of the line to enable them TO reinstate the
property. As it now stands it seems that
the original purchasers will have TO REIN
burse those they have sold to, be-
fore they can return the property to
the receiver, the receiver will have to re-
imburse the original purchaser to secure
the property intact from the original pur-
chasers, and the contestants will have to
furnish the receiver funds to REIN burse
the original purchaser. But even then
the question will not be settled, for, IN
der the decision, the assets will have to
be readvertised and sold. When such
sale occurs the question of whether the
property will bring the price paid by the
first purchasers will prove an interesting
one. All the money received has been
paid out, and should the next sale not
bring as much as the first, it will be
point to determine who will make up the
deficit.
