Flies Kill Cattle.

In the great cattle pastures along
the South Canadian river in Cleve-
land and Pottawatornie counties,
and across the line in the Chicka-
saw nation, flies are swarming on
the cattle as never before known.
Dead Acattle are found daily in every
herd literally worried to death by
hordes of small flies. which sting
like bees, and the cattlemen can
not get rid of them. If the pest
continues thousands of head OF
fine cattle will be killed in a week
or two.

WAR THAT Is NOT WAR?
Mckinley Administration ADMITS Il and
Denies IL.

Washington. July 5.-By the
decision of the comptroller of the
treasurer that all soldiers now in
the service are entitled to that 20
per cent increase of payment au-
thorized by Congress TO be paid
in time of war;" admission is
made by an official for the first
time that the Philippine insurrec-
ton has reached the dignity of
war"
Heretofore the authorities have
carefully refrained from admitting
that we are in a state of war, and
even none of the administration
officers outside of those whose duty
it is to pass upon questions of army
pay, will consider the contest in
the Philippines as anything but an
insurrection.
For obvious reasons the admin
istration cannot formally admit
that we are in a state of war. The
international obligations which
would result therefrom would cause
no end of embarrassment. The
Philippines would have good rea-
sons to claim, even if they did not
do it. recognition of belligerency.
Such recognition, in addition to
increasing the risk of foreign COM
plications, would seriously handi-
cap the United States in the pros
ecution of the war. International
law would require strict neutrality
on the part of other nations, under
which American men-of- war would
be barred from foreign ports be-
yond the "a hour limit prescribed
by the rules of war.
But, of course there is no likeli-
hood of anything of this kind hap
pening, or of the Filipinos ever
obtaining belligerent rights.
For the purpose of increase of
pay to soldiers only has the COM
ptrOller decided that the United
States is at war. From all other
standpoints. we are simply sup
pressing an insurrectiOn.

nURDERER ESCAPES.
Goes Out Through Roof of Jail In Plain
View of People.

View of People.
Guthrie had a novel Jail delivery
yesterday, in which one notorious
criminal made good his escape.
He was gone fully an hour before
the guards and officers knew it.
The facts are as follows:
Yesterday afternoon about l
O'Clock while the jailer and his
deputies at the federal Jail were on
duty, Nickamore Saerz, a Mexican
indicted for the crime of murder,
made his escape by climbing to
the top of his cage in the bull pen
and pushing the top OF the scuttle
off, climbed onto the roof of the
Jail and with a rope that he had
made secure, made one end fast
and climbed to the ground, max
ing a good clean get away. Sew
eral persons saw the Mexican on
the roof of the jail but thought
nothing of it.
The chances for capturing Saerz
are slim, as it is likely that he will
make a bee line for Mexico.
About three months ago Nicka-
more Saerz and Antonio Martinez
killed a farmer living within Is
miles of the Anadarko agency.
They were run down and arrested
by the United States marshal S
force and were confined in the fed
eral Jail in this city, having Deen
indicted for the murder. Saerz is
said to he the real murderer.
The Mexicans were taken to Ell
Reno in May TO be tried, but ow-
ing to the crowded docket their
eases were continued until the next
term and they were returned to
Guthrie by Deputy Marshal FasSett
and j.. f. Lounsbery and placed
in the federal Jail.

John DiIIon's Prediction.

London, July 5.-In the House
of Commons today, during the de-
bate on the second reading of the
military works bill, John Dillon.
National member from East Mayo,
objected to the proposed eNpendi-
lures on the defenses at Halifax
and Bermuda, adding that he
firmly believed all the West Indian
islands would soon belong to the
United States, as the inevitable re-
suits Of the recent war.
The inhabitants of the British
West Indies, Mr.. Dillon said,
would find they must of necessity
join the United States since nature
intended those islands to form part
of the United States.
The people of the islands will
ultimately say so, declared the
Irish statesman, and Englishmen
would not be so foolish as to re-
sist. If they did, they would have
to advance more loans to the
islands and they would soon tire of
that. Do believers in an Anglo
American alliance imagine that
they are promoting good feeling by
erecting these fortifcationse

AGAINST FORCE DOCTRINE
Bryan Pours Hot Shot at Expansion
Which He Opposes,

Which He Opposes.
Hon. William J. Bryan address
ed the Barnesville. Ca, Chatauaua
yesterday.
Mr.. Bryan spoke of the celebra
tion of the Fourth, which was
more general in all parts of the
country than ever before, and re-
ferred to the part the south had
shared with the north in sending
men to war against Spain. He
claimed only one purpose. and that
was to find out what was best for
this country. 1t was impossible,
he said. to discuss public affairs as
a non partisan He was again
willing to place the issues before
the country on the plans laid down
by Thomas Jefferson.
Mr.. Bryan paid his respects to
the republican party as the protec-
tor Of trusts.
THE trust question is growing
in Importance, said Mr.. Bryan,
and this is due to the great num-
ber of trusts now in existence.
The trusts OF this country now have
capitalization equal TO all the
gold and silver money of the world.
fhe principle itself is wrong, to
say nothing of the extortion y
In closing his speech the speaker
took decided stand against ex-
pansion. Mr.. Bryan said:
Holding the Philippine islands
against the will of their inhabitants
Involves a new departure in gov
| do not want as part
of this nation people who can not
read the declaration of independ-
ence. The doctrine of force lies
behind, not in front of us. The
expansion argument is the argu-
ment of George III.
Shall we say on this day of
celebration that we have lived 100
years under a wrong principleg
No. Some say take the Bible in
one hand and the gun in the other.
|, thank God, am not in favor of
this way of Christianizing. We
shall not depart from a republican
form of government. We are not
ready to accept the doctrine of
conquest and force. 1t is not the
desire of the republicans to do
good, but the desire to gain more
money, that lies behind their colo
nial policy" "
Whether l am nominated or
not in 1900 is immaterial to me" "
said Mr. Bryan. Whether |
shall ever again be a candidate for
any office depends on circum-
stances. | don't wont to be a can
didate for president unless those
who think as | do believe that |
can DO more for the principles of
the party already adopted than any
one else. | would rather help
somebody else win than be the
cause of the party's defeat.
1t the democratic party wants
somebody to lead a retreat, they
must find some one accustomed to
walking backward. The demo-
cratic party will not weaken on the
money question and the question
of Imperialism will bring more
votes out of the republican party
in the coming campaign than in
any of the campaigns since the last
canvass OF Abraham Lincoln.
