In this country the Italian is the
typical "dago" because he is the
only familiar representative OF tho
dark skinned nations Of Latin Eu-
rope. 1t is the Spaniard, however.
whose language furnished this slang
name for the men of the Mediter-
ranean countries who come to the
United States.
One of the most familiar names
borne by spaniards is Diego" It
serves nearly as well as John in this
country as typical name for boy
or man. English sailors long ago
came to know Spaniards as "dagoes"
because "dago" was about as near
as they could handily come to
"Diego. "-Cleveland Leader.

doubt of the election OF Bud Led

that certain parties are opposing
his election who, as a matter OF
public policy and good citizenship
ought to be working in his favor.
Ledbetter stands at the head of the

hunted down and killed or cap
tured more outlaws and desperate
characters than any officer in the
country. There is not bank nor
a moneyed enterprise in the whole
territory that does not feel safer,
and is safer on account of the pres.
ence of such officers as Ledbetter.
This town especially has reason to
congratulate itself upon the fact
that this has been his home. and

ations as an officer. There are

under the strip agreement, when
it was determined by the Cherokee
authorities that. they were not citi-
zens. So, that instead of being
abused and persecuted, they have
received consideration to which
they were not entitled either in
law or equity. The United States
is bound to carry out its agreement
made in the purchase of'the Cher
okee strip-one of the c0nsidera-
tions that led the Cherokee nation
to part with the strip-that the
intruders should be expelled.
Congress has made provisions in
the Curtis act, by comforting upon
the courts jurisdiction to carry
out that solemn agreement.
That is the status the in
truders occupy, and that
they have been conceded the righ:
to stay here and contest these
proceedings in court is very gra-
cious treatment on the part of the
government Of the United States.
They should thank their stars that
they live under government that

treaties and its laws. / am of the
opinion that the demurrer to the

Miss Minnie May Wilson and
Thomas Greenman were married
at the junction of the Oklahoma

last Monday. Miss Wilson is an
Oklahoma girl and she refused to
marry out of her territory. Green
man is a Kansas man and he re-
fused to marry out of his state.
The compromise was arranged by
Miss Wilson standing in Oklaho-
ma and Greenman in Kansas when
they were united, the officiating
clergyman standing on the line.
The couple will reside in Kansas.

THIS THE FATAL DAY.

Today that portion Of the Curtis
act which makes it misdemeanor
for a Cherokee citizen to occupy
more of his domain than so acres
to the head takes effect. The pen
atty for a violation Of said provis-
ion is punishable by fine of 800,
and each day said land is so held
shall constitute separate offense.
A very remarkable thing is occur
ring all over the Cherokee nation.
Men who are known to be scrupu-
lously law abiding are paying no
attention to this law, aud are
knowingly violating it. One very
intelligent Cherokee Indian said
the other day that he did not rec
ognize the right of the Curtis law
to say to him that he must turn
out his fields and take less than
his share of the common estate of
his people, and that therefore be
was not going to pull down his
fences.
There is general feeling among
Cherokee citizens that the obnox-
ious provisions of that law will not
be enforced, and that an agree
ment, satisfactory to the United
States government, and to the In
dians, will be reached before the
convening of congress next winter,
and thus settle finally the whole
contention.
1t would be an utter impossi-
bility for the Cherokees to comply
with the so acre provision were
they SO inclined; it would work a
hardship upon them that they are
not financially able to meet.

There is no longer any doubt Of the
whereabouts OF Lyman Naugle His
son Roy received a letter from him
this morning written at Auckland, on
the north island OF New Zealand.
The VOICES guess as to Naugle's
destination when he left Wellington
turns out to be correct. He vent d.
rect to New York from Wellington,
and sailed for Liverpool. AT South
ampton he took a fast English mail
steamer for Auckland. There issome
doubt as to the rou'e he took from
Southampton, but he probably went
via Cape Horn, touching at Rio de
JenairU, South America. This is one
of the quickest routes, though there
are shorter routes. The letter was
dated July s, 1899, and came by way
OF San Francisco. The letter con-
tanned nothing Of importance, merely
being written to inform his son Of his
whereabouts.

eject him from the lots on South

The petition states that Kinney
holds the lots on tax deed which the
plaintiffs claim is worthless, and
states further that the defendant
refused a tender of 5000, the amount
OF delinquent taxes on the lots. The
plaintiffs also sue for rental on the
lots at the rate Of $40 per month from
the first day of December, 1898.
