A VALUABLE SUGGESTION RE.

GARDING THE TRUST" ISSUE.
All Of the astute and resourceful poll.
ticians seem to be blind to the fact that
the "trusts" can be kept from becoming
a practical issue between the conflicting
parties in the Presidential campaign of
next year. The republicans, who are 40
greatly interested 10 eliminating this
topic from consideration by the voters
for presidential electors az the democratic
are in keeping it prominently before
them, have N their own hands the
power to destroy the hopes of their op.
ponents 10 this respect, and at the same
time add to their own reputation az con.
structive rather than destructive, and
increase their prestige by proposing the
fret practical step toward effective ma
tional measures respecting the "trusts."
They have only to present and press,
with or without recommendation such
as President Mckinley may make in his
annual message, a resolution in con
grees, which will meet in December with
a Republican majority in both branches,
proposing an amendment to the consti.
tuition giving congress that authority to
deal With the trusts which, it is ad
mitted, it does not now possess. 1t
would take. Of course, two thirds in each
house to adopt such resolu ton, and
the republicans have not two thirds in
either house, but the democrats could
not afford to oppose such q proposition,
which lie directly in the line of their con.
teotion against "trusts." aud there can
be no doubt that the resolution would
be adopted. 1t would be idle az every
senator or represen tative would admit,
to attempt any new legislation for the
better regulation Of "trusts," since the
supreme court has decided that congress
has not the constitutional power to enact
such legislation, and any attempt to
substitute bill Of that character would
be too obviously mischievous to succeed.
The proposed amendment to the consti.
tuition could not we'll b. opposed &c
d'lstory measure. because it offers the
only way OF successfUl dealing with the
matter, and besides, it could be ratified
by three-fourths Of the states. according
to the constitutional requirement. in

SMALL POx AT Fl. GIBSON
Infection in a House Occur
pied by Three Families.

A week ago and upwards case
OF smallpox was suspected at FIT.
Gibson. 1t has now clearly dis
closed itself to be such and no
communication with neigh
boring towns is being permitted.
There are three families living in
brick house near the railroad
track, in old town. who recently
came from Oklahoma, to work in
the potato and cotton fields. One
of the men showed very strong
symptoms of being i'll the stage of
recovery, ten days ago-was COW
cred with scabs and blotches. The
local physician suspected at first
the cause and to a confident told
it, saying that if he could avoid il
he was not going back to see the
patient again. But he was, evil
IDENTIFY, compelled to do SO, with
the result that one of the women
was found to be sick with the dis
ease.
vinita learned few years ago,
by experience, that these
smallpox stories get larger as they
travel, but The Chieftain has cor
rect information on the Ft Gibson
incident. By this is meant, not
that the man and woman have
smallpox beyond question, but
that the Ft. Gibson physician and
the town believe 1t to be such and
are taking due precautions. While
Vinita's admonition to keep cool,
would be wholesome and timely
to some towns, it is out of place,
as it were, in TT. Gibson case. As
the headquarters of a military es,
tablishment for nearly three quar-
terss of a century it has had re-
peated visitations of smallpox, and
one or more of the cholera, which
killed its scores if not hundreds.
