A Civilized hell.

Silas Ransom was a negro
from Guthrie. The Santa Fe
train crushed his foot. Tie.
company physician, the city
physician, DR.. Walker, the
county physicians, DR.. Nell
vain and several Oklahoma
physicians all called at the San
ia Fe depot to see him. He laid
there for eight hours. Not Il
physician raised a finger to aid
him. He was sent to Guthrie
for medical attention. Two of
these men hold Office for the
express purpose of aiding the
needy. They should never hold
them again by the votes of hu-
man beings. Excuses unnum-
bered will be offered for this
brutality. Inhumanity will find
apologists. But the bold, bare
cruel fact remains that a poor,
manned. crushed human being
lay in the city of Oklahoma for
eight hours, on the eve of deco
ration day. with no more medi-
cal attention from the eight
physicians who saw him. than
would have been given a rabid
hyena. Men may say of it what
they will. 1t is for them to con
slider. condone or execrate as
as they choose. A reconcen-
trado in Cuba meets Christian
sympathy. in Oklahoma he
finds civilized hell.-McMas-
