A Campas Plant,

Wild lettuce, so common through
out Oregon is in one respect a most
curious and interesting plant. In
stead Of its leaves being horizontal to
the earth they are vertical, at right
angles to the customary position.
But even more strange is the fact
That the leaves always present their
edges north and south, making the
plant most perfect compass. Only
one or two other species Of plants
nave this popularity, but none in so
marked degree.

1T WILL SETTLE ITSELF,

The propositions of the In
diens OF the five tribes under
which they propose 10 accept
allotment as preliminary to
statehood or territorial govern
ment, are evidently made with
a view to concession. They
have made the claims large
enough to allow for a good deal
Of shrinkage.
Under the plan they propose
it would cost the government
from $40,000.0OO to $50,000,0OO
to organize them and the whites
on their lands as a territory.
The game is not worth the can
die. Such a price should only
be paid, if at all, for the form
ing of one state between Kansas
and Texas. Such a state might
be worth the money it would
cost under the Indian plan.
But the five tribes insist that
in addition to the millions paid
them for allotment, they are
never to be merged with Okla
homa either as a territory or as
state.
This opens the way to decisive
action. We should respect our
treaties with the Indians so
long as they insist upon them.
The erection of a state in
Oklahoma will force statehood
in the tribes within few years,
for a territory could not long
exist surrounded by growing
states, and certainly tribal gov
ernment could not stand such a
test. Make a state of Oklaho-
ma, and before the close of the
century the tribes will be ask
ing for statehood, either indie
pendent or by absorption into
Arkansas or Texas. ST. Louis

Electric Bitters is a medicine
suited for any season, but perhaps
more generally needed when the
languid, exhausted feeling prevails,
when the liver is torpid and slug
gish and the need of a tonic and
alternative is felt. A prompt use
of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more
surely in counteracting and freeing
the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, Indigestion,
constipation, dizziness yield to

The horse has become 50 thorough
ly dOmesticated in all parts Of the
world that really Wild representa-
tivcs Of the species are extremely
rare. There still exist In parts Of
Hungary partially Wild horses, but
these when captured young may be
broken in and put 20 harness with
on q farmstead. It is, however. far
different with the wild horses of the
Tartars, which are untamable and
win not live In captivity.
During his journey through west
ern China q. Z. Grum Grizmailo
met with n wild horse IN the Dzun-
Rarian desert, and after much trou-
BILE succeeded In securing two speoi-
mems, though neither of them were
taken alive. II sherds are extremely
cautious, and Il was only by the ut
most patience and cunning that the
explorers were able to conceal them
selves near enough 70 q small salt
lake where the horses came TO drink
to shoot a couple of them. The wild
horse has something in common
with the Altai, Caucasian and Finn
ish ponies. Il is Of short stature
1.46 meters high-has . broad chest
and back, n short massive neck and
fine legs, as elegant ~ those Of q
race horse, ending with broad hoofs.
The head Is rather heavy in COM
parison to the body, but the wide
forehead is handsome, the line from
the forehead 20 the nose straight,
and the upper lip covers the lower
one. The upper part of the tail has
the color Of the body. bat black At
the point, and, like that Of the Wild
ass, is not entirely covered with
hair. The name begins in front Of
the ears, the longest hairs being in
its middle part. IL is black In color
and hangs over to the left. In the
scantiness Of hair about the body
the wild horse rather resembles the
Tekke Turooman horse, but the
killed specimens had a strange look
ing pair Of whiskers, about four Gen.
timeters long, running from the ears
to the ohm. It's color is sandy In
summer and light brown in winter,
with nearly white parts on the abdo-
men. The forehead and cheeks are
rather darker than the rest Of the
body, while the end of the snout il
whitish. The legs are black, the
spinal mark hardly exists and en-
tirely disappears in winter.
In its manners and mode Of life
the wild horse differs from the wild
asses-tbe Ojishetais and the Ku.
lans. They stay in preference in the
desert while the asses prefer the
mountains. The wild horses march
in Indian file when they scent dan
ger and leave in the desert their
track in the shape Of we'll defined
paths as they march from their
abodes amid the desert hillooks q
their drinking places.
They neigh exactly alike and have
the characteristic growing of our
horses. The Mongols sonaatimes sue.
oeed in catching young foals alive,
but so far they have never been able
to tame them. nor do the foals live
for any length Of time when kept in
captivity. They are very feet OF
foot, and n herd when started rushes
away with the velocity Of race
horses.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

For the benefit Of republican
Office seekers in the Southern
District of the Indian Territory
we quote from the act of March,
1895, creating each two eddi-
tional judges. district attorneys
and marshals. Especial atten-
ton is called to the difference
in the wording of the clause
authorizing the appointment Of
the judges from that providing
for attorneys and marshals.
The act in question says
there shall be appointed by
the president by and with the
consent of the senateItwo addi-
tional judges who shall hold
their respective offices for a
term of four years from the
date of theirappointment unless
sooner removed as PROVIDED BY
LAW"
ATTORNEYS AND MARSHALS.
There shall be appointed:by
the president two addiGoral
district attorneys and United
States marshals, who shall con-
tinue in office for four years,
and until their successors shall
be duly appointed and quail
fed"
1t will be noted that the
judges are to hold for four
years unless sooner removed
as provided by law" Ii we
understand the law it provides
for removal upon certain condi-
tions. Do any of those neces-
sary conditions exist A Games
vile attorney once thought so,
but he failed to satisfactorily
substantiate his charge end
Judge Kilgore still honors the
bench of this district. We APP
prehend republican aspirants
for his position will encounter
the same obstacles unless politi-
cal opinions constitute the
grounds for removal as "Dro-
vided by law"
1t will be further noted that
the attorneys and marshlls are
appointed for -four years, and
unil their successors snail
De duly appointed and quail
fed" There is no ''un-
less sooner removed, etc, ;" ep-
piled to their respective osi-
tions. Now how will the anx.
ious pie hunters get around this
clause, except by patiently
waiting forthe expiration OF hat
| four year period which to them
VII no doubt seem a long while.
In returning thanks next Thurs
| day the present incumbents will
| have Sreat cause for gratitude
in that they are hedged in by
statutory protection which en-
sures them a full term unless
they are to be made victims "a
political treachery and a direct
sJbversiou of the law. OF course
their continuance in office
should, as it is, be contingent
upol e faithful discharge OF
their every duty. When hey
fail in that they should be re.
moved and republicans appoint.

today. 1t deals vigorously WIN |
the question of the lack of ad-
vertlslng as practiced by Ard
more, business men and In
doing so cites the South Meal
ester Capital and its liberal
patronage as a comparison. He
might have gone further and
included the Purcell Register,
the Duncan Banner, the Chieka-
sha papers, the Duncan Eagle,
the Pauls Valley, Wynnewood
and Davis papers, in fact every
publication in the Indian Terri
tory outside of Ardmore. They
all receive a flattering advertis-
ing support from their people,
making an excellent showing
abroad for their respective
towns.
We venture the assertion that
were copies of the Duncan Ban
ner and the ARDMOREITE sent to
a person who knew nothing OF
either town save what he would
1 learn from the information be-
fore him as represented in the
advertising columns of the re-
spective papers, he would at
once conclude that Duncan was
the largest place, certainly the
most enterprising. The same
conclusion would naturally be
reached as regards the other
towns mentioned.
No town or business man ever
1ost by judicious advertising.
The local paper is always taken
as an index to a towns com
mercial and industrial import
ance. Computing from this
universal standard Ardmore in
the estimate would fall far
down in the scale. This is not
as it should De. There is no
= question but that ATdmore is
) far ahead in population and
wealth of iny other town i'll the
territory andit is also unques-
toned that it gives the poorest
SUPPORT to its papers of any
| town in the territory. 1t can
not be truthfully said the ARD
MoREITE has not always been a
staunch friend to Ardmore's
every interest, or that it is lack
ing in enterprise or excellence
as a local newspaper. The
daily reaches nine-tenths of the
the homes in this city besides a
good circulation in surrounding
towns and states.
When asked, as we frequent
! ly are, why it is that our mer-
chants don't advertise we can
not give truthful answer
only by saying 1T is their way
, and their way don't call for
advertising" OF course this
don't apply to all, for there are
some here who are constant
patrons, but as a rule they are
not the largest concerns. They
are men though who realize the
Importance of advertising. Their
constancy and the results have
demonstrated their wisdom.
We realize that every man
has perfect right to conduct
his business as he likes and our
remarks are not In the nature
OF complaint Or censure, but
are the cold facts as we see
them. They are simply given
with the hope that they will
arouse our friends to the i'm
portance of a display of public
enterprise, believing if they will
wake up they will find the
money spent, Will prove an in
vestment instead of donation.
