Legislative observers will concede
that the opening days OF the present
session OF the Oklahoma legislature
are the "dullest, from a news
standpoint, in the history of the
territory. This is not due to
any lack OF vim and energy on the
part OF the members, but rather TO the
fact that it Is being demonstrated
every day that for once ia the history
OF politics fusion" has ia fact fused. .
but while we are making comparisons
between this and previous sessions il
may be well TO compare on material
points. One OF the most interesting
points Is that both branches Of the
present legislature were organized by
members thereof aud not by lobbyisls'
Two years ago the Republican legis-
lature was practically organized by
the lobby, and the makeup Of the
most important committees was die
tated by the lobbyists most Interested

fore the committees. 1t was notice
able in the opening days OF this ses-
sion that the work OF organization
was carried on exclusively by the
members themselves, without inter.
ference, and the result, as whole has
been a capable set OF officers ia either
branch. In the one fact that the lob

PURCHASING ISLANDS.
Senator Lodge Wishes United States to
Buy Two West India Islands.

WASHINGTON, December 22.-Im-
mediately upon the reassembling OF
congress Senator Lodge, of Massachus-
etts. will make vigorous effort to Sc
cure early action upon his scheme to
secure legislative authority for the
purchase of the islands of St. Thomas
and St. Croix, which are in the West
Indies group and belong to Denmark.
A year ago the senate passed resOlu-
tion requestir G the state department to
ascertain whethrr the islands are in
the market, at what figure they were
held and whether any other country
was after them. The reply which was
received has not been made public in
its entirety, but it is known that the
Danish government intimated that the
islands were for sale aud that there
had been preliminary negotiations to
that end with two European govern
ments. These are supposed to be
Great Britain and Germany. The
figure asked for the two islands by
Denmark has not been made public.
The text of the reply has been trans
mi ted by the state department to the
senate committee on foreign relations,
but for diploma attic reasons 1t has been
he'd f. the present as confidential
Senator Lode e ls sanguine of securing
an appropriation that will enable the
islands to be transferred to the juris-
dictiOn of the stars and stripes.

Spanish Anarchists.

LONDON, December 22.-The execu-
tive committee of the Spanish Atroci-
ties association, which was brought
into existence fer the purpose of aiding
the anarchists aud revolutionists ex-
pell. d from Spain. has issued q state
ment showing that nearly all OF the
two hundred exiles have been shipped
to for eien countries where they have
been provided with work through the
efforts of compatriots in sympathy
with their political We've. For pru-
Dental reasons IT, e names OF the ex-
les and the countries to which they
have been sent are withheld. The re-
p TT, however, says: "By the exertions
of the committee this band of exiles
has been dispersed, by ones and twoe,
to every country in the civilized world,
and only three have been sent back.
This work can be carried on with
gre at secrecy as. if their destination
had been known to the police or immi-
grafton commissioners of the countries
concerned, nearly all would have BEEN
expelled from the places in which they
sought and have found refuge"

The following is from the Morning

Sunday and yesterday afternoon the
HERALD publishe ed what purported to
be special from Tucson; but the fol-
lowing parallel will show that the spe-
cial arrived in this city, published in
this Tucson Citizen, yester day at 30
p. M"
Here follows two parallel column S,
one from the Tucson citizen and one
was yesterdays Tucson special to the
HERALD. The morning paper contin-
ues:
"The HERALD's special service is
very slow. The wreck occurred Sun
day. But tn 8 faking of telegrahic news
is practiced by the HERALD every day
and is done for the purpose of m slead-
ing the public. 1t is in short advertising
a falsehood by endeavOring to make
the public think that the HERALD is
spending considerable money for tele.
graphic news, when in fact, every L.
sue of that paper contains matter, dat
ed up to appear as il it was received by
telegraph on the day of publication
but which was received by mail or was
cut from some other paper. To those
who can easily detect such practice the
HERALD'S methods of taking are very
rank"

per, and it makes the above statement
through pure jealousy. Now for the
benefit of the public the HERALD S
telegraph editor has taken the trouble
to get Mr.. Steel, manager of the West
ern Union Telegraph offic', to state
whether the special from Tucson,
VIII ch this paper published yesterday,
came by wire and was PAID FOR by tn e
HERALD, or whether it was faxed
news as the Times asserts. This is
what Mr.. Steel says:

Yesterday morning, the Times pub
lished the following item, which owing
to the fact that Engir eer Ellis was an
old and highly respected citizen of Ell
Paso, was of extreme interest to the
public here:

that Engineer Billy Patterson aud Ell
lis were killed in collision near Ben

gineer Patterson had been helping the
section of No D over ORA COON hill

up the hill. Engineer Ellis formerly
lived in Ell Paso and was q member of
the firm of Ellis & Kinksbury."
Although the Times says that this
rumOr was current on Sunday, they ap-
parently made no effort to learn wheth-
err it was fact or mere rumOr. Yester-
day morning, the telegraph editor Of

which goes TO sh W how sympathy
and indignation may be aroused and
the horrors of war inaugurated by a
reigning prince, simply TO promote d
marriage that may prove advantageous
to the designing prince. The article as
seris that Greece was involved in the
war with Turkey, not through sym
pathy for tie Christians of Crete, as
was pre,eod-d, but owing to the en-
deavor of King George of Greece to
bluff the car of Russia into fastening
the marriage of Princess Mario. The
car having declined to interfere, King
George, knowing that Russia was most
dssirous that there should be no dis
turbance in the south of Europe at
that time, played with the war party
until it got beyond his control. The
car then warned King George that
the Turks would occupy Athens and
that his dy uasty would cease to reign.
X ng George finally entered into ar
rangements with Russia, the latter pro-
missing that the Turks should rot go
beyond Thessaly, provided no real
stand was made against them, that the

ously operate against Janina and the
