An Accident That Might Have Been Seri.
ous-Several Persons Injured.
An exciting runaway occurred on
Grove street Sunday, and several per-
sons injured. Mr.. Burrows Appellate

ened at the big cone at the old Getsipper
works. and started on run down Grove
street. One of the lines broke and then
Mr.. Appelgate's son took hold the reins
and the other line broke.
This left the runaway team free. and
also left the occupants of the carriage, five
OF them. in precarious position. The
horses dashed down the hill, and on
lockers held their breath, expecting to
see all the persons in the wagon killed.
AS the team turned into Pearl street,
the wagon upset and threw the occupants
out, the horses breaking loose. Mrs.
Appelgate was badly cut on the head and
otherwise injured, although she did not
think seriously. Mr.. Appellate had his
hand cut and injured internally, The
son was bruised. The daughter was
pretty badly cut on the arm, and other
wise injured. A small child escaped in
jury. While nearly all of the family were
seriously injured. it is not thought that
any OF the wounds will prove fatal, al
though they were all too much frightened
to know just how badly they were hurt
The team was caught near the w. J. &.

Be Careful.

The season is approaching when the
wastefulness of water is most prevalent
of all the year. This is an abuse that con.
Germs not alone the corporation which
furnishes the supply but the people and
their health. At all times the unnecessary
use OF water helps to prevent proper
sedimentation, and thus contributes to
the continuance of typhoid and other
fevers. Who wishes to rest under the

A BREATHING SPELL.
Cherokees Should Improve
the Opportunity,

Everything seems ito indicate
that the Dawes commission intends
to give the Cherokees a rest Of d
few months at least. The com.
mission will have it's hands full
for some time to come with the
Uhoctaws and 'Chickasaws, and
then the Greeks will doubtless be
attendedito before the Cherokees.
The breathing spell thus allowed
should be made good use of and a
definite plan of action mapped out.
If another agreement is to be made
the Cherokees should be ready to
make it promptly when the regu-
lar national council meets next
November.

Let all Glasses Strive for the
Towns Advancement.

The non citizen element in Vi

people, and some of our most pub

class, but as a general thing they

Cherokee citizens who have in

pended money in buildings and
improvements deserve the coop
eration in securing title to their
property, of all the people of the
fown. The administration of mu-

LATE WASHINGTON LETTER.
To Put Curtis Bill In 0peration-After
the Indian Agent.

The interior department is put
ting into operation as rapidly as
possible the machinery which will
sound the death knell of the tribal
governments in the Indian Terri
tory. The Curtis bill is to be put
into operation in all its details
and at the very earliest opportu-
nifty. The first operations of the
law will be the opening Of Offices
in Muskogee, Wagner and other
towns in the Creek nation, for the
reception of applications for pat
ents of lands to the Creek Indians.
These applications will be received
and temporary certificates issued.
The townsite appraisers for the
Creek nation will be appointed
within the next few weeks. The
first appraiser to be appointed
will be for the town of Muskogee.
In the Cherokee nation the work
may be delayed temporarily, ow-
ing to the continued protests Of
members of the tribe, as well as
the inability of the interior de-
partment to reach that nation at
present.
The interior department will al
low the cattle to remain in the
Creek nation until the temporary
allotment oflands have been made
to the individual memh,rs Of the
tribe, when they can then make

satisfactory arrangements with the
holders of the lands.
Agent Dewey Wisdom, of the
Union Agency, will soon be re-
moved and successor appointed.
Numerous charges have been pre-
terred against him, and the de-
partment has decided to take &C.
ton as soon as the president re-
turns, which viii be probably
within two weeks. The change
will be made both because of the
charges preferred and for political
reasons. Mr.. Wisdom is demo-
crat appointed from Tennessee.
He was a personal friend of ex-
Senator Isham G. Harris, of Ten
nessee, and it was through his in
fluence that Mr.. Wisdom was re-
tanned. Who his successor will
be is not yet decided, but there
are number of applicants for the
place, among them being Ten
nesseean, who was a lieutenant
colonel in the volunteer army, A.
M. Hughes, who seems to stand
the best chance for appointment.

TO MIX IT WITH THEM.
The Republicans Launch a
City Ticket.

Probably eighty persons met at
the mayors Office last, highland
about 5 o'clock Capt. White rap
ped for order and announced that
w. M. ,Mellette would take the
chair. With few formalities, D.
II. Wilson vas recognized and
moved for the nomination of a
citizens ticket. An amendment or
substitute that instead republi.
can ticket be nominated went
through with whoop. Three
persons were selected to make up
a ticket and three others a plat
form. The platform committee
consisted OF Capt. Day, 0. D. New
lille and DR.. Winner. Their report
was to the point, strictly; it
contained probably fifty words,
declaring clearly for free schools
and for an economical, business
like city government. The COM
mittee on officers consisted of Joe
Scott, Capt. White and T. A.
Chandler. They were not long in
returning the ticket as follows:
Mayor-W. R. Badgett.
Recorder-Henry Drew.
: Aldermen-Ed Shanahan, H. R.
Allen, Luman F. Parker, John
Franklin and John /. Hawkins.
The report, accepting these gen.
tlemen as the nominees of the
meeting, was adopted. With the
election Of an executive commit.
tee which consists of Capt. Day,
w. s. Stanfeld, Dennis Hicks and
I. A. Chandler, the fifth member
having declined to serve, the meet
ing closed.
All of the gentlemen comprising
the ticket nominated are thorough
ly well known and no one will
say they are not competent; no
objection whatever will be offered
to any one of them. They have
started out with a will and ars de-
termined to be elected il possible.
1t can be said for Mr.. Badgett that,
since the removal of G.. w. Green,
he is the oldest republican in the
town-in point of residence, not
of years old-and has been one
from principle.

UNITED STAETS COURT,

Judge Springer issued an order
yesterday, which virtually estab-
llshes a commissioners court at
Fairland, and requires Commission
er Don Carlos to hold court one
week in each month at that point,
beginning the third week in April.
This will be of great convenience
to the people Of the northeastern
portion of the territory. Miami
being SO remote from railroad con-
nection and SO inaccessible to the
territory contiguous has rendered
the United States court sessions
at that place of little value.
***
Judge Springer delivered an
elaborate opinion yesterday on the
general question of citizenship
in the Cherokee nation, and OF the
rights Of citizens, and also of in
truders. to occupy land upon the
public domain. Under the courts
ruling it becomes comparatively
easy to eject an intruder from
improvements claimed either by
the Cherokee nation or by individ-
ual members of the tribe. The
court does not recognize the right
OF known intruders to occupy land
in the Cherokee nation. This
probably is the beginning of the
end of this long drawn-out prob
lem.

Mcleod Then and Mcleod Now

1t is fair to presume that f. G..
Mcleod is candidate for reap
pointment to the position of coun-
ty commissioner, at least the
candidate of the Ocala editorial
combine, Harris and Brumby,
for they are the ones that .'tot-
ed" the petition. We desire to
say that Mr.. Mcleod must have
quite recently changed his mind,
for, only a month or two ago, he
said that nothing could induce
him to serve another term, and
threatened to resign, but his c.
laborers induced him not to do
so. He has a perfect right to do
this, but how does the reformer
from kendrick reconcile his state
ment that with the 18th Florida
confronting him he can be of no
good to the taxpayers of Marion
county. When he used the
phrase, "13th Florida," he re-
ferred to the laws governing the
action of the board of county
commissioners, now on our stat
ute books. II he could do no
good IN the past to the taxpayer,
what hope of real usefulness has
he in that office in the future? He
said the height of his ambition in
running for the legislature last
fall was to amend and correct
these laws, but as the people re-
fused to commission him to do
that work "they could now pay
the fiddler" or words with that
import.
The inquiry naturally suggests
itself, WHAT good is a mem Der of
any legislature or administrative
body whose mind Is saturated
with the idea that the law is n.
Ct. He can't amend the said law
and hence reform and retrench-
ment are n veritahle nullity.
