Monetary Commissions Bill Intro
duced in Congress.

Washington, Jan. 6.-RepresentatiVe
Overstreet of Indiana introduced in
the house today comprehensive bill
for carrying out the plan Of the none
tary commission for the reform of the

MAJOR WOODSON ATTACKED
CHARGES Brought Against Him Are
Denied on Authority.

El Reno, .. T.. Jan. 6.--(SpeciaL)-
Major A. E .Woodson and his estimable
wife have been made the victims of an
atrocious article in an Oklahoma City
paper The article, as is usual. has
gone the rounds of a number OF news
papers. There is not one word Of truth
in it, The lady mentioned in the arti
Gle has never mentioned, or even inti-
mated. to a living person any of the
charges laid at her door. The major
and his wife are living in peace and
harmony, and it is an outrage on both
TO have such scurrilous articles sent
out about them.
Major Woodson telegraphed the de-
partment at Washington today for an
inspector to come 10 Darlington TO in
vestigate the matter relating to the re-
ports recently published in newspapers
Commissioner Jones replied that il was
unnecessary and that no inspector
would be sent for such a purpose. This
means that Major Woodson's conduct
has been such that the department is
satisfied with him as an Indian agent.
The attached correspondence was re-
ceived today by Major Woodson:

FOR A KANSAS CANDIDATE
Eagles El Reno Correspondent
Speaks Warm Words.

FL Reno, o. T., Jan. 6.-(Special)-It
was announced in the papers of yester-
day that Gorge GAY Clark, of the juno
ton City Republican, Junction City,
Kansas. was a candidate for secretary
of state No better man can be found
for that position than he. The Ell Reno
correspondent of the Eagle was local
editor on the Republican for almost six
years, and during that time he had
chance to understand more Of Mr.
CIark's character than any man in the
state. Gorge a. Clark, while member
of the state board of charities, per-
formed the functions of the Office with
great tact. honesty and ability. George
IS as honest as the rising sun, his
word is as good as his bond, and there
have been a number of times when he
has divided his last dollar with needy
friend. If nominated, there is no doubt
but what he will be elected, as he has
many warm personal friends outside OF
the Republican party, as he has in 1t.
