ROBERT L. BOYD.

The election of r. L. Boyd as
attorney general of the Chicka-
saw nation, was the sole topic
among his many friends here
yesterday, who were loud in
their praise of him as being the
most competent and thoroughly
qualified man in the Chickasaw
tribe to fill that highly impor-
tant office. True Mr.. Boyd has
many enemies, that is, many
are opposed to him, but this is
due to the fact that he belongs
to no clique or ring, and is
strictly conscientious. honest
and impartial in all his deal
ings regarding the welfare and
protection of the Chickasaw
people. He is a man that money
cannot buy. A friend to the
Chickasaw orphan and widow,
whom he is ever ready to pro-
tect, and we do not hesitate in
saying, that no man in the en-
tire ChickaSaw nation is today
better posted regarding the life,
laws, usages, legends and ira
ditions of the Chickasaw people
than Robert l.. Boyd. the newly
elected attorney general. The
election of such men as he and
r. NJ. Harris will rendound to the
people of the Chickasaw nation
in an era Of progression, such
as this country has never be-
fore witnessed.

Mrs. Kearney entertained the
Orio Literary Club at her home
Friday afternoon.
Each week witnesses an i'm
provement i'll the work done.
A taste for careful investigation
is fostered, without which no
permanent results would ac-
crue.
The general discussions on
the themes assigned for that
purpose were well handled,
eliciting the fact that the club is
becoming a society of real
thinkers. The table talks on
Eugene Aram, Robert Herrick
and August We're finely illuStra-
tive Of this.
The happy vein in which Mrs.
Biles presented Bill Nye's char
acteristics, bespeakS much
praise IN her behalf. indicating
she was thoroughly in accord
with her subject. The quota
tions Of quaint humor that fol-
lowed were received with I'M
stinted mirth.
Mrs. II. Noble was certainly
in close touch with her subject,
Robert Campbell, if we are to
judge by the delicate tribute she
paid to her genius as a poet, or
by the graceful mannerin which
she read selections from the
poets Pleasures of Hope"
Other selections followed by
the members and we felt like
exclaiming with Campbell,

TANDY FOLSOM,
A choetaw Sheriff Arrested For the
Murder of a Cattieman Named
Long. NIne Years ADO.

Denison. Tex, Aug. a.
About nine years ago a cattle
man named Long. residing
near Caddo, /. T., was found
dead one morning at the corner
of his pasture with a bullet hole
through his brain. Officers
searched for the slayer OF Long.
but the manner Of his taking off
has always remained a mystery.
His death was not a great sur
prise to those who knew the
man, and perhaps for this reas-
on no active search was ever
made to discover by what means
he had met his end or at whose
hands.
The matter had been dropped
and almost forgotten till it was
reopened yesterday by the ar
rest of Tandy Folsom, of Cad
do, |. T., sheriff of Blue county
Indian Territory. Folsom was
arrested by Deputy United
States Marshals Polk Warren
and Mitchell and taken TO Sher-
man. where he was confined IN
jail on the charge Of killing
Long. Folsom was at the time
of Longs killing Il deputy
United States marshal and a
member Of the Indian police.
and it * said that Long had
threatened his life. Folsom will
have an examining trial before
Commissioner Grant tomorrow.

THE question of eIecting a
delegate to congress to repre-
sent the 250,000 nOn-citizen resi-
dents of the Indian Territory is
being generally discussed by
the press and is meeting with
universal favor among the peO-
ple.> Since it is inevitable that
radical and far-reaching legisla-
ton affecting this country will
soon be enacted, it is vitally
important that the people have
a representative in Washington
to represent their interests. In
the absence of a precedent,
there is, of course, some doubt
about such delegate obtaining
recognition, but the object
sought is so desirable and
essential, that it is certainly
worthy of earnest endeavOr, and
we hope to see a united and de-
fermined effort put forth for its
attainment. 1t has been sug-
gested that a convention be
called to put out a candidate
and make arrangements for his
election. The Capital heartily
seconds the motion, and will
render whatever assistance it
can in furtherance of the move

FIRE MATTERS.
SPECIAL MEETING OF THE BOARD
YESTERDAY MORNING.
A Protest Over the Storing of Hny-
Test of Smoke Protector Made
May Adopt 1T For the Department.

The business houses in the vicinity
of the Peoples Forwarding company's
establishment have sent in complaints
to the fire and police commission, OBJ
jecting to the fire department storing
its hay in that block. The commission
held special meeting yesterday fore
noon and considered the matter.
The people themselves do not object
to the hay storage house, but the in
surance companies threaten to raise
the rates on all property in the vicin-
ity unless some other place is found to
store the fodder. The commission WIS.,
tied the place and while no action was
taken yesterday, they all expressed
themselves as favorable to grant the
request of the compliments.
BY arrangement the commission also
was present at the public test of
smoke protectors. The test was given
in the rear of the headquarters. A fire
was built in close shack, a liberal
amount of old rags, drugs and other
stuff SUFFICIENT to produce fumes and
smoke that would kill a man in less
than three minutes. The smoke pro-
tector was adjusted on one of the men
and he entered the shack, returning
after six minutes and a half 1t is
generally understood, however, that
with one of these contrivances a per
son can work in the densest smoke for
an hour. The protector consists of a
large cap fitting down to the shoulders
and so arranged that neither air nor
smoke will enter. In the back a steel
cylinder is arranged carrying a supply
OF compressed air sufficient to last for
an hour at least. The invention affords
protection against the heat as we'll
being made of leather and soaked in
some solution to render it absolutely
fireproof.
The commission felt highly satisfied
with the test and it is not unlikely
that the department will be provided
with these protectors which are now
ments.

relator adjudged entitled to judgment
as prayed for and the writ of mandate

issued Opinion delivered by Judge
Bartch and concurred in by Chief JUS
tice Zane and Justice Miner.
Kendall was appointed inspector OF
provisions for Salt Lake county on
November IS, 1892, for a term of two
years at 500 per month. On January
IS, 1894 ten months before his term
expired, he was removed without
cause, and his successor, ]. G. Nc
Allister, appointed. Kendall brought
quo warranto proceedings against Nc
Allister and the supreme court decided
that Kendall was entitled to hold Of
fee and receive the emoluments there
of until the expiration of his term. In
pursuance of directions of the supreme
court the district court rendered judg-
ment for $1,000, the amount claimed,
in favor of Kendall.
The city council refused, however, to
appropriate the amount, and the au-
ditor could not, therefore. issue a war
rant. Kendall then made application
for a writ of mandate to compel the
issuance of the warrant, which was
now granted.

is then stated that Justice Harvey re-

1t is then alleged that Judge Dey is
the attorney for Martin Hayken, who

that L. c. Davis is one of the wit

against Hayken; that the petitioner,

turnabIe on Saturday.
County Attorney Whittemore yester-
day made application to the state su-
preme court for a writ of mandate TO
compel Justice Harvey to allow the
netitioner to take charge of and con-
duct the proceedings of the prosecu-
ton in the Justices court in the case
of the State VS.. L. C. Davis, charged
with perjury.
The supreme court declined to issue
the writ and referred Mr.. Whittemore
to the district court as the proper
place to bring his proceedings. The
county attorney then repaired to Judge
Young. who issued the writ and fixed
the hearing on the same for next Sat
urday.
The county attorney in his petition
sets out the filing of the complaint,
charging Davis with perjury and the
tendency of the preliminary hearing
before Justice Harvey.
He then alleges that the warrant
was issued without his knowledge or
consent and that the complaining wit
ness neglected and failed to apply to
petitioner or Any of his assistants to
have the warrant issued, but purposely
got it issued without petitioner
knowledge or consent. Petitioner then
recites how he went before Justice
Harvey and made strenuous efforts to
have the complaint dismissed, but the
justice was so unreasonable as not to
comply with his request, whereupon
petitioner stated that he would have
nothing to do with the prosecution of
the case Justice Harvey, ignoring Mr..
Whittemore altogether, set the hear
