THE wEATHER-AN OLD SUBJECT
A warm chinook struck the Laramie
plains yesterday morning and as early
as sunrise had melted the By IL
O'Clock the water was running down
the streets in streams and some cellars
were partly filled but the flow was con-
trolled before any danger of any con-
sequence was done. The SNOW was
nearly all melted off by evening.
Today the wind is much colder and
a small blizzard has been raging part
Of the afternoon. The wind has been
more severe west of Laramie and trains
were delayed some.
Yesterdays noon train, east-bound,
was twelve hours late. The rotary
went west today to open the line and
prevent any more delays. The snow

Regarding Merchants Tax.

Inspector Wright, of Muskogee,
has written the following letter re-
garding merchants tax. to Alex.
Rennie, special national agent for
the Chickasaw nation:
"Your letter dated at Davis, /.
T., the 3rd instant has been re-
ceived. You state that certain
non-citizen merchants in that ma
tion are haggling in the matter of
the payment of taxes levied upon
them by the laws Of the Chickasaw
Nation some claiming that they
ere no longer obliged to pay the
same after a town has been incor-
porated, etc.
Replying, you are advised that
the incorporation of town has
nothing to do with the title the ma
ton holds to the lands occubied by
the towns. and cannot in any way
effect the nations right to collect
said taxes. The nation, (through
its authorized collector), has the
right to collect all manner of
revenues taxes, ETC., except the
taxes on coal, asphalt and other
minerals as set out in the Atoka
Agreement which is part of the
Curtis bill, and such right con-
tinues until such time as the ma
tion parts with its title to said
land. The transferring of the
title constitutes the segregation of
the land from the nations COM
mon property, or property held
by the individual. members of the
tribe in common.
"All non-citizens, therefore, do.
ing any manner of business within
the limits of the Chickasaw Nation
must pay said taxes and other
wise comply with the laws of the
land which they occupy.
"You will accordingly proceed
to the execution of your duties as
collector of such taxes, and report
fully to U. S. Indian Agent D. NJ.
Muskogee, l. T., through
The governor of your nation, all
persons who refuse to comply
with the Chickasaw laws, for re-
noval from the nation as intrud.
ers."

A letter from Mrs. G. H.
Arbuckle, the wife of former
business associate of the deceased,
was received this morning. The
family live at De Lamar, Idaho,
but the husband is member of
the legislature and hence they are
at Boise City, the capital. The
letter states that on Friday night,
December 30th, Arthur attended
the theater with. the Arbuckle
family, and although suffering
with cough was in good spirits
and seemed to enjoy the play.
He was seen Saturday afternoon
by Mr.. Arbuckle, but about mid
night, after attending a caucus,
that gentlemen went to Arthur's
room but did not find him. The
landlady, however, said he had
been there-the family were
watching the old year out. He
did not occupy his room that
night and was next seen Sunday
morning about seven o'clock,
walking down the street with his
overcoat buttoned up, by a
painter named Brown, who he
turned around and looked at.
The next known was the finding
of the body, still warm, about 8
o'clock, on a hill in the outskirts
of the town; the coat buttoned up
and the hat pulled down to pro-
tect the face. His watch was on |
his person, but for some unknown
reason was not sent home with his !,
trunk, nor was his overcoat. There
were no marks of violence and the
indications pointed to morphine
as the cause OF death, and this the
ory was strengthened by the testi-
mony of the landlady that she had
seen a bottle of that drug in his
room. 1t is also known that when
he occasionally took !,
dose of morphine, though not ad-
iicted to it.
The opinion of Mrs. Arbuckle
was that the drug, if this was the
cause of death, was not taken with
intent, but that being ner-
7ous and sick he took dose for
is soothing effects, and walking
,ut into the outskirts of town was
'vercome by the sleep that ended
n death.
