seems TO be impossible for the bill com
pelling Rock Island trains TO stop at
government townsites to become a
law. Senators Blackburn and Petit
grew are as maliciously wrong as any
other men were ever right The re-
mainder of the Democratic members
stand solid as a phalanx in favor Of
the bill compelling this soulless cor
poration to respect the rights of the
people. But without the help of these
two or three recreants their strength
Is useless, for in opposition is the
united force of the Republicans.
Blackburn insists upon what he
chooses to term compr Jmise, and
wishes to incorporate in the bill a
clause providing for immediate county
seat elections in o and L counties.
This is in reality trick of the rail
road company who hope by the use of
Doodle to swing the county seats to
the railroad towns
Better nothing than that May the
time never come when the fair soil of
Oklahoma shall be drenehed with
blood from county seat wars. The
history of Kansas cries out in horror
against it. The curse of fratricidal
strife in fruitless county seat contests,
with all its blistering, blighting trail
of horrors hovers, over this territory
and stands as n menace in the present
bill. If the amendment can not be
killed without carrying the bill with
it, then kill the bill.
The Rock Island railroad company
mas set about with deliberate purpose
to ruin more than one half of the peo-
pie in two of the best counties in this

design was laid in petty spite. Some

pose to loot few townsites in the

But the Young Lady Did Not Know It
and There Was Scene.
Those little patent affairs which

to create a great deal OF excitement
along crowded city thoroughfares
One day last week, for instance,
there was n group of male pedestrians
gathered in close ranks with craned
necks about "A faSir on a Chicago
street.
A freshfaced. pretty girl in big
hat and stylish wrap sailed iauntily
down the street, the embodiment of
brave and Independent womanhood.
This dauntless young woman ell
bowed her way ahead through the
crowd and glanced casually at the
fal<ir with little supercilious smile
which included the group of curious
loiterers.
Suddenly the group was agltata I'd
and swayed in from the curb. aud a
small dark object scurried across the
pavement.
"O-w"
A distinctly feminine scream smote
the circumambient air and the brave
young woman, her eyes distended by
terror, grabbed at her skirts with
both hands and sprang into the mid
die of the street, recklessly under the
very nose of herdic horse. The
hcrdic driver said something emphatic;
the men on the pavement grinned;
the fa<ir dangled his patent gray
mouse and eXpatiated on its resem-
blance TO the real thing, and the
young woman made wide circuit of
the fal<ir's corner and dived into the
crowd skurrying down Washington
street.

RICH BONDHOLDERS.


Names of These Favorites of Fortune
Kept Secret by the Treasury.
The millionaire is commonly repre-
sented as engaged in clipping coupons
from bonds. This is an eggregious
error. Rich men, as rule, do not
hold coupon bonds. The reason is
quite obvious Such bonds are not
safe property. They are always pay
able to bearer, like treasury notes. II
lost the government will not replace
them. Accordingly, for the sake OF
security, people are constantly eX-
changing them for registered bonds.
Thus the sum total of coupon bonds
outstanding, which is now about
$40, 900, 600, is all the time diminishing.
They are mostly in the hands of small
holders. With the registered bonds il
is quite different. They are rich meu's
property par excellence. At present
about 5000, 900, 600 worth of them are
held by private individuals. OF this
great sum Ss7 200 900, or not far from
one-half, are owned by 1000 persons,
roughly speaking, whose holdings
average $50, 900. The names of these
fortunate individuals are kept secret
by the treasury. Some of the fortunes
possessed in this shape are enormous.
Some of the greatest belong to the
Nanderbilts. Old William H. Wander
bilt had Si2, 900, 900 in registered bonds
at one time.
