Che Goitor Still at Sarge
KINeFIsHER, OKLA, Dec. 3

h1NGFlSHER, OkLA., Leu. D.
The above date finds me still locat-
ed IN this booming little city.
This town surely enjoys fine trade.
Saturday the streets were crowded in
every direction with farmers and
farmers teams, marketing produce
and buying goods, The stocks of mer-
chandise here are exceedingly large,
especially the dry goods and clothing
lines. The reason of the unusually
large stocks is the fact that quite a
jobbing trade is carried on from this
away from the railroads.
There are nine big elevators here,
two of them doing milling business
aud the other seven simply handling
grain. Since the rains ceased and tue
roads are getting passable, see a
great deal of grain coming in: corn,
wheat and oats. There are also two
cotton gins here, and as a matter of
course, considerable cotton is being
marketed.
One of the principal businesses here
seems to be the whisky trade. 1 think
there are not less than ten saloons in
this town of about 5000 people. AS a
natural result, there is good deal OF
drinking and frequent arrests. Scarce
ly a day passes without one or more
men being run in." The city gets
$500 license from each saloon, and in
addition to that, each saloon man has
to put Cup 800 to the government
and 5000 to the Territory. Thus it
costs the keeper $500 per year for the
privilege Of dealing out liquid ruin to
his fellow-man in Kingfisher.
The city possesses a fine large brick
school building, we'll located, and a
number of neat and commodiouS
church buildings. 1t possesses one
frst-class three-story brick hotel,
which is a credit to the city, strictly
an up-to-date house and very ably
managed by Horace Humphreys, a
young man who has grown up in q
hotel and knows the business from
start to finish. He is wide awake e
the interests and comforts Of hi:
guests, and in geniality reminds me
very much of our own boniface, Mr.
Fisher. This hotel holds the com
mercial trade Of KingfisheT, which il
a great Sunday" town for the boys
! There are a number Of other hotels
and eating houses in the city, but the
Kingfisher House is THE one.
There is a college on the higt
ground about mile east OF the city

WANTED TO GRUMBLE.

"Guess we'll have to elect Bryan
next year," said an old Republican
last week in THE TINES office.
"When we had a Democratic presi-
dent there were lots of idle men look
ing for job. Why l can't get half
enough to do my farm work.
There's too much prosperity. Every
farmer is busy day and night. l
have a neighbor so years old and
he was digging potatoes the other
day and his wife, aged IS years. was
helping him. They can't get any
one to help them, never knew the
time when we couldn't get help.
And everything we have to sell goes
like hot cakes on a cold morning.
And he went out grumbling at these
good Republican times after paying
for three subscriptions to TIL
TIMES. And he had lots of money
left. Mckinley times suit him al
right but he wanted to grumble

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President McKinley's message to
Congress Tuesday is a voluminous
document compared with the aver
age, but not longer than necessary
considering the many and various
subjects to be handled in conse-
quence of the past years eventful
happenings. That part of the mes
sage which touches upon our sover-
eighty in the Philippines is perhaps
of first interest to Western people,
and shows that the government will
take no backward step in that di-
rection. The Cuban question, the
President says, is in the hands OF
Congress, and will &c dealt with &C
cording to its merits.
The present condition of the coun-
try leaves but little to be desired;
and after reading of the great pros
perity that has been and is now ours,
even our Demo-Pop friends must
admit that this is truly the land
"where health and plenty cheer the labourinl
swain"

illegally dispensed hot and rebellious
liquors to the thirsty, terming him,
verbatim, a "contemptible, vile,
INSCRIPTIONS dispenser of rotten
whiskey and stale beer" and also a
specimen of debased humanity,
whose look and swagger mark him
an individual having no respect
for law and ORDER" etc. Sayl this
is getting serious, and we think some
of the great press powers should be
called upon to mediate the affair
lest the parties in controversy be-
come angry and say wicked things.
It's up to you, Ugly, but we'd adj
wise you to check the bet.

OUR good Democratic friends are
getting into deep water already over
the presidential campaign, Should
the Bryan wing gain control and
nominate Bryan and reaffirm the
Chicago platform the gold element
of the Democracy will surely vote
with the Republicans. Should the
eastern Democracy win out and sill
yer be consigned to the rear our
western free silver Democrats can
have no heart in the campaign and
the free silver Republicans will be
found in the Republican ranks.

THE move of few politicians of
the state to nominate senator IN
the Republican State Convention is
not meeting with general approval
over the state. There surely could
be nothing gained by such a move
and it might work serious harm to
the party in many localities. We
do not think it wise to undertake
such an innovation at the present
time. and don't think it will be done.

tration of Grover Cleveland, when we
had the extraordinary revenue law OF
Professor Wilson, which never was
able to produce sufficient surplus to
pay for running the government reve-
nne cutters which Mr.. Cleveland used
for his fishing and duck shooting ex-
cursions. Mr.. Cleveland had no Span
ish war on his hands. He had no in
surrection in the Philippines. He
had no extraordinary expenses for the
navy and the transport service. But
his ideal tariff law, the Wilson meas
ure, plunged the nation head over
heels in debt. 1t kept him selling
government bonds to raise money
with which to pay national bills at a
rate which made the hair Of civil war
fipanciers stand on end.
But now, with the heaviest expen-
ditures, save only last year, since
away back in civil war times, the
Dingley tariff law, laughed to scorn
by the Clevelands, the Wilson's and
the New York Worlds as revenue
producer, not only produces receipts
enough to meet all the expenditures
of the government, but it is laying up
a surplUs
The treasury statement of receipts
and expenditures for this month of
November will show a gain Of 81, 000,-
900 in customs receipts over last
year and of nearly $4,000, 900 in inter-
nal revenue receipts. The expendi-
lures have decreased $4,000, 900 and
there will be surplus for the month
of So, 100000 For the five months Of
the fiscal year the receipts have been
about 1926, 1000, or s35, 900, 900 bet
ter than for the corresponding period
of last year, while the expenditures
have oeen 1926, 100000, as against
1884 200, 900 for the corresponding per-
iod of 1854 net gain to the govern
ment for the five months of $59,0O0,-
900 saved in expenditures and $35, 000,-
900 increase of receipts, or a better
showing for the government of $94,-
100000.
1t is worth while observing that
the deficit for the five months to De-
cember Of Mr.. Cleveland's fiscal year
of 1896 was almost SAL 100000. The
,;U;,rnrlus of $5,5OO,OOo for November
will increase the surplus for the five
months Of the present fiscial year to
$12, 100000. And this is what we
have-an excess of receipts over ex-
penditures of more than $4,000, 900
for five months-when the united
Democratic press and the united
Democratic party, united on this one
question alone, predicted millions of
deficit for the period just passed.
And, while we are expressing our
thanks at this time of Thanksgiving
for the Dingley tariff law, shall we
not be permitted to take another
laugh at our friend, the New York
World, which expressed a more bitter
hatred than all the other of its ene-
mics for the Dingley law, and which
with most careful, authentic and
specific calculations and estimates
showed in July last that the deficit at
the close of these five months would
be S45, 100000? What that estimated
deficit has become is an excess of re-
ceipts amounting to s12,500,OOO.
This under a despised protective
tariff law which was to wreck the
country ten thousand times worse
than the Wilson law had wrecked 1t!
What triumph for the dead Dingley,
lied about, slandered and jeered at to
the very day he entered his grave
and after.

From the New York Press.
One thing in particular for which
the American people may give hearty
thanks is that in spite Of the heavy
war expenditures in Cuba and the
Philippines this government is again
solvent, and more than solvent, after
several years Of plunging into debt.
1t is a condition which was IN
known during the borrowing admins
