1t Is Asserted That the Former Voted
For the Latter In 1899.
The statement that W. J. Bryan, in a
speech at this place on March ", 1896,
declared that he was not a Democrat
has been given some circulation in the
newspapers. 1t has never been denied,
but many have doubted it, because no
proof has ever been offered. The fol-
lowing affidavit is from well known
citizen of this place, a retired farmer,
and thoroughly reliable:
II hereby certify that I heard Hon.
w. j. Bryan's speech here on March II
last, and that he used the following
language: Il am neither q Democrat,
Populist nor Republican, and in answer
to question stated that he voted for
Weaver, and also that the change to
free silver would produce q panic at
least for a time.

The Mayfeld we'll near Conaway is

seems to cause very little excitement
for such an important strike. All or

this may be reason for the lack of in

Some time ago the Kanawha Oil Co.
got a good we'll in the Indian creek
territory that is rank wildcat, which
has been doing more than 100 barrels
a day, or at least that is the report
among the operators. The matter
has been kept quiet for the reason
that the company wanted to get hold
of all the territory they could before
it became generally known that good
well had been found. TStar
The strike of E. Clark, Jr,, & Co., at
Cairo, which caused such a furry of ex-
citement among oil men Saturday, was
not needed in this well, but was cased
off and the drill will be sent on down
to the Big Injun, which is the sand for
which they were drilling. When the
well is completed second we'll will be
put down within few feet of the first
hole to tap the shallow sand in which
the gusher was struck. In the mean

other companies operating in the field
will make a search for the shallow

placed in rows and nearly all these
were occupied.
The Hawaiian Band was stationed
near by and played catchy airs through
out the day. The music could be heard
all about the wharves and on the va
rious vessels, making the day all the
more pleasant.
WITH THE MYRTLES.
The Myrtle Boat Club house was
crowded throughout the day, there be-
ing very large number of ladies pres

spot of the club house, and it was here
that dancing and merry converse was
INDUCED in, with the pretty decorations
in flags and green's giving the place a

IN THE EVENING.
A dance was given by the Myrtles in
the evening, and this proved one of the
most pleasant occasions that has ever
been given in the club house. The
moonlight served to light up the new
lanai sufficiently for the dance, and the
soft music by a band of native singers
placed the affair decidedly in the realm
of the romantic.
