TRANSPORT WAS NOT FIT.

Lieutenant Colonel Miner, commanding
the Sixth infantry, testified to the move
ments of his regiment from Fort Thomas
to Santiago and return. He regarded the
Tampa camp as excellent. There was
difficulty in getting transportation from
Tampa to Cuba. The transport Mama.
in which his regiment went to Santiago,
was not fit for troops The men would
have died in their quarters if the voyage
had not been mild so trat the port holes
were left open and air thus supplied The
supplies of the men and OF the officers
were the same. Most of the officers were
on foot from loss of horses.
Speaking of the attack AT San Juan hill,
he said he found when they reached the
summit that Colonel Egbert had been
wounded and he was in command. That
night no supplies came and the men were
without food or blankets. except such
food as they had in their fayersacks.
THE BREAKDOWN AT SANTIAGO.
The witness said the command began
70 break down about tne l4th. They mad
dug trenches az night and lay in the wet
bitches al day The hot sun and the wet
weather broke the men down. When a
march Of three miles was made not more
than one-fourth Of the men kept up but
all got in BY night The morning after the
surrender the witness took the regiment

KEATON is JUST A JOKE
Monster Flynn Meetings at
Medford and kingRsher.

Hon. AlonZo A. Byers, of Newkirk, the
permanent chairman of every Democratic
convention ever held in Oklahoma, was
in the city last night for a few hours on
his way 10 Blackwell. He IS enthusI-
astic for Dennis Flynn, who. he thinks.
will unquestionably be elected. In speak
ing Of keaton, he said: 'Keaton IS the
creation OF a circumstance, created by
Shively There IS absolutely nothing to
Keaton except egotism and ignorance.
There was a wave of opposition TO Gala

Mr.. Flynn is the originator OF Free
Homes" and he is the man to get Il
through congress. He is the best hustler
Oklahoma or any other territory, for that
matter, ever had. He can go to congress
and accomplish something that will be of
benefit 10 the people. Keaton, on the 9TH
er nand, is no mixer, nor mas re the aDll-
ity to put through any Of the measures
that Oklahoma needs. 1t would take him
at least his first term, should he be elect
ed, before he got next, if he ever would,
and the next time he would be defeated
in the convention, or otherwise the polls.
Flynn is known there, and he can accom-
plish more than could possibly be done
by any other man that Oklahoma could
send to Washington. Those high in the
councils of Oklahoma Democracy, treat

Medford, o. T, Nov. Especial lover
5000 people listened to the address in this
town tonight of Hon. D. T. Flynn. A
building seating 1400 would not contain
the half Of the crowd. In comparison,
Judge Keaton spoke to an audience of sc,
by actual count. Flynn spoke for over
two hours, though he had spoken twice
today the meeting was very enthusiastic
and responsive. F'lynn's every sentence
went straight to the center. Hundreds
who came hero opposed, left declaring
their intention to vote and work for
Flynn next Tuesday. Conservative per-
sons place his majority in Grant county
at 400 Tonight's meeting will increase
this number.
Flynn exposed the falsehoods of his
opponents in such a manner as to con-
vince his audience and completely silence
his traducers. His every assertion was
sustained by unimpeachable records.

The BurIington's New Trains

Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route, on the 1st of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magnifi
Gently equipped as any in the
country-that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vestibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route.
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of buffet
smoking-librarycar, palace Sleep
;-o- GOV oed two raclininu-chair
cars. The buffet-smoking-hbr
car is something new for Denver
Chicago line. 1t is veritable
clubhouse on wheels, where one
may read, write, smoke, talk or
play cards, while travelling at the
rate of fifty miles an hour. 1t is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ed with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, a layatory, writing-desk,
a compartment for card-players,
and well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers are on file, and a carefully
selected library is provided for the
free use of passengers. The sleep
ing car is gem, and the chair
and dining-cars are in every way
worthy of the train of which they
form an important part.
The Burlington Route takes
palatial trains through to Omaha
and Chicago in marvellously quick
