THE INTRUDERS wILTED.
Their Bluff Game at chIekasha Failed TO
FriGhtsa the Indian Police sad
They SheIisd Out.

Lieut.. a. Mckay, OF the Indian
police with headquarters at McAles-
ter, accompanied by c. w. Plummer
and James Colbert, OF wapanucka,
l. T., arrived in the city this morn
ing en- route to their respective
homes from Chickasha, where they
in company with Gov. Mosley, of the
Ch'ckasaw Nation and a squad of
police had been to collect the one
per cent tax from int. Iders. Lieu
tenant Mckay says that when the
company first arrived in Chickasha,
the merchants refused TO pay the
taS required by the Ch.ckasaw gov
ernment, as also did the lawyers,
but rpon being informed by the
governor that they must abide by
the law or he would proceed to
dump each and every one of them
over in Texas, they at once wilted
and concluded TO pay up. The law
yers who had advised the int.dders
not to nay the tax, were required to
shell out SIC each which they prompt
~ did. A number OF the merchants
who were in arrears since 1898, were
also made to come down with the
cash. The deadly Winchester in the
hands of the Indian police carries a
holy terror to violators of the law
and these parties at Chickasha who
have persistently refused TO comply
with the mandates Of the Chickasaw
authorities in the past are no doubt
now thoroughly convinced that they
can bulldoze them no longer

Westminster Advocate.
The foremost advocate of the Re
publican ticket in this state is the
Baltimore Sun, and the foremost OPP
ponent of every assessment bill that
has been proposed in or passed by Il
Democratic Legislature was the same
Baltimore san. birds of n feather
flock together" Ii the SIN did not
believe that Mr.. Lowndes was opposed
to the passage of an assessment law
that would require all persons to con-
tribute to the support OF government
according to their actual worth in real
and personal property, it would not be
supporting him. Its real objection to
Mr.. Hurst is that he will do his ut
most as Governor to secure the enact
ment of Il reassessment law that will
assess all property. Its ostensible OBJ
lection is that his nomination was the
result OF "boss-rule." There was no
more abject follower of Senator Cor
man in the state than the SIN was
until the Senator declared that the
people wanted reassessment of the
property Of the state and ought to have
it. 1t is neither honest, just nor fair,
but selfish to the last degree. To es-
cape just taxation it is frantic to have
Mr.. Lowndes elected, and the fact
that il is for Lowndes is strong evil
dence that Lowndes is opposed to any
just and fair assessment.

The Shakers have made great hit.
Their Digestive Cordial Is said To he
the most successful remedy for stomach
troubles ever introduced Ii imme-
diately relieves all pain and distress
after eating, builds up the feeble sytem
and makes the weak strong.
The fact is, foods properly digcsted
are better than so called tonics The
Cordial not only contains food already
digested, but is digester of other
foods. Food that is not digeSled does
more harm than good. People who
use the Cordial insure the digestion Of
what food they eat and in this way get
the benefit of it and grow strong.
The little pamphlets which the
Shakers have sent druggists for free
distribution, contain much Interesting

The administration of state affairs
by the Democratic party of Maryland
for the past q years is a record of

What is n Democrat.


according to the Baltimore Sun. OF
all the specimens of political delirium
that | have ever seen the SIMS case is
the worst. 1t is surprising that a
journal which once was model of
decorum and conservatism should
have become so frantic as to fall to the
extremes of the vilest campaign falsi-
fer. 1t rants at everybody who dares
to profess and call himself Democrat
without pledging himself to vote the
Republican ticket rs the evidence of
his Democracy. Any man who SPEAKS
for Democracy is no longer entitled to
be called Democrat, but it is to be
called everything else that is insulting.
Senator Faulkner came here and spoke
for the Democratic ticket, and at once
he is denounced and his seat in the
Senate threatened. Senator GRAY is
sneered at and informed that he has
no right to speak for the administra-
tion. In fact, the only and correct
test Of mans Democracy is his de-
termination to vote the Republican
ticket.
The Democratic State Convention,
the Democratic ticket, the great vol
ume and mass of Democrats are all
myths, according to the Sun. The
only true and noble and sincere Dem
ocrats are in the Republican ranks,
accept the Republican ticket, endorse
the Republican platform, which re-
news and comprises the Republican
national platform of 1892, and will
pledge themselves to do all in their
power to defeat the party which
elected Cleveland and stands commit
ted TO the Democratic national plat.
form.
Here is crazy anomaly for you.
To prove yourself Il tariff reiormer
you must vote for the restoration OF
Mckinleyism; to prove your fidelity
TO your race You must vote for negro
equality and for the man pledged 10
negro equality to prove that YOU are
a soundmoney man you must vote fol
the party which has given us unsound
money, and will tamper with the cur
rency again, to our detriment If il
succeeds to favor fair elections YOU
must show it by voting for the party
that never touched the ballot box but
to defile it, and never held decent
election in this state. In fact, to prove
yourself Democrat you must become
Republican.
This is the position of the Sm in
politics. In morals it is worse. II
does not hesitate to suppress news in
favor of Republican politics it cover:
up and conceals, as far as it can
negro rufilanism for fear of prejudicing
voters; it misrepresents every Demo-
crat and Democratic gathering sys
tematically it abuses in the vilest
manner every man who refuses to be
led by it into the Republican ranks
In fact, it scruples at nothing to gain
an unworthy end, and the sooner the
Baltimore public honestly and justly
estimates the degradation and unre.
liability of its former guide and mentor
the better will it be for them and theil
city. OLD READER.

Her father was Sir Robert Laurie,
