The rising sun of peace
shines upon a fortunate land.
Prosperity is in the air. Its
evidences are all about us, fore
ing themselves upon the blind
est. 1t is not only felt, but is
seen in the prompt start which
enterprise, industry and trade
have taken simultaneously with
the removal of the uncertain
ties of war. There are to-day
no croakers, no grumblers, no
prophets of evil. All feel the
inspiration; all note the quick
Improvement already made in a
trade conditions; all look to
steady and rapid advance. and
all propose to push forward
and take their share of the new
prosperity.

The Democrats of New York

The Democrats of New York
are divided on the money ques-
ton. Gov. Flower and his fol-
lowing are opposed to nominat-
ing free silver man for gov
ernor, while other leading
Democrats say it will do no
good to nominate a man who
does not indOrse the Chicago
platform. The next Legislature
is to elect a United States sem
ator and the people arc to lect
congressman. On this account
national politics can't be ig-
nored. Some expression must
be made. If it wasn't for this
division on the money issue.
the Democrats have fiatterinp
prospects of electing the gov
ernOr.

whittier he went on official bus
mess. While there he got what
light he could on the Curtis
bill.
In reference to putting i'm
provpInents on vacant town
lots, he says that he was in
formed that Commissioner of
Indian Affairs Jones had issued
a circular letter in which he
stated that improvements plac-
ed on vacant town lots after
the passage of the Curtis bill
would amount to nothing and
would not hold the lots; that
the bill contemplated no such
thing as the building of houses
after it's passage. In this Sen
ator Jones, of Arkansas,
agrees.
Recently the above appeared
in all the Territory papers.
Hon. S. T. Bledsoe sent the
clipping TO Commissioner
Jones. who replies as follows: ::

letter to the effect that i'm
provements placed ON vacant
town lots after the passage of
the Curtis act would amount to
nothing, etc.. and asking for
information concerning the
same. | have to say that this
Office has issued no such circu-
lar letter. and that the depart
ment has not formulated any
rules or regulations for the exc
cution Of the provisions of Sec.
10 or said act concerning the
location and disposition of
townsites within the limits of
the Indian Territory.

am IN receipt of a letter dated
Aug. 10th, 1898, IRON the sec
retary of the interior directing
that Agent Wisdom be instruct
ed to advise all parties seeking
information on that point that
10 one will be allowed to secure
title to town lots under the
Curtis act who does not show
good faith in his every act. and
that lot jumping will not be
tolerated by the department
and that when the town lots
are disposed of under sad act
all persons who have ;iot acted
in good fait.I will not be per-
to secure title to such
ots. Very respectfully.

Mills and P. Grant, two members Of q

here yesterday after sper ~ four
months In trying to get through to the

At Quesnelle they met Sir Arthur Cur

where Sir Arthur mysteriously disap-
peared and was never seen again by q
white man. :"
Mr.. Mills said they Joined in the
search with Indians for the body, and
that they are confident that the latter
not only knew about the nobeman's
DEATH but where the body might be
found. They want $1,000 reward for
bringing It out of the woods. The I'M
fortunate nobleman, Mills believes, met
with foul play.
Mills and his party were lost four
days without food 100 miles from Tele-
graph creek. On one occasion they
took the advice of a treacherous In
dian guide and went 80 miles out Of
their way. They describe the expert
ence as terrible. They r fare en-
phatically that the route = fraud,
and that hundreds of poor fellows are
actually in danger Of starvation on it
now. They are stalled fifty and hun
dred miles apart, without provisions
and without hope. Mills and Grant
started out with 50 horses. and left 80
dead on the road. Their outfits are also
lost, and when they reached Telegraph
creek they were broken in health and
