From the Wichita Beacon.
1t does not require any OF the extra
ordinary endowments OF seer to
observe the passing of Dennis Flynn
as factor OF the first magnitude in
Oklahoma politics. lie maintained his
peculiar prestige for long time, but
the beginning OF the end has come.
Close observers did not have to wait
Tor Judge Scott's interview TO realize
that Dennis, as a star, was before the
footlights in the theater of oklahoma
politics for the last time. No student
human nature could be deceived as
20 the permanency Of Flynn in politics.
lis success was based solely on personal
popularity, sustained b, his remark
able faculties as "jDllier.' Blarney
is an element that always go in
new country. Men like TO be slapped
on the shoulder and called John" or
"Bill." They like IL especially when a
| congressman does il. Dennis has talent
along that line. He sinks a shaft in
every man he meets until he strikes a
vein Of vanity, and then works il for
all it is worth. He is past master in
the art OF palavering. But ss Okla
homa grows older and its citizens be-
come more permanently ideot titled wi h
It's interests they want their public
men 10 do something more substantial
for them than 10 ill their ears with
sweetened wind.
But il takes long time for people
10 get tired OF honey, and Dennis might
have gone on prospering For some time
yet were IL not for the fact that he
misunderstood his last victory. II be
had contented himself with deceiving
the people he would be wise, but he
fell into the great error OF deceiving
himself by thinking he was the whole
thing in Oklahoma and proceeding to
demonstrate it. Like all shallow men
he misunderstood the ability of those
he set out TO make war upon, and the
result is that he has hastened his
inevitable downfall. His fight against
Barnes was blunder; his fght against
Billy Walker, his old lieutenant and
strategist, was unmitigated insanity,
ana his fight against Judge Scott as
we understand il, was political suicide
When a puny man changes from hyp-
notism TO fighting he always makes
mistake. Some OF the admirers Of Mr.
Flynn call him a child of genius lie
is, but his genius is like that OF the
chap who hourishes his hands before
the eyes of rustic aud makes him be
lieve that the pea Is under the she'll.

grow in volume as the Repr hlicans
press forward on lines not eontempla-
ted in our fundamental law or in our
aspirations.
There is only one remedy for the
wrongs which have been committed
by the Republicans and that is to re
store the Democratic party to power
and keep it there until the principles
Of the party are brought into opera
tion in every branch of the govern
ment, and are permitted to permeate
all our institutions.

Santiago, January 19.-Thc United States
military authorities In Havana have Gu
bIed the Santiago department an order
that not a cent OF the customs receipts ~
the department is to be expended without
the permission of Governor GehsHai
Bracke. The order also directs that The
greater part of the Santiago work par
formed shall be done without money pay
and for rations merely. The directions 'e-
garding the customs funds have not yet
been made generally known.
AS most people, relying on recent dis
patch from DR.. joaquin Castillo, now IN
Washington, have regarded this pon;
definitely settled in favor OF Santiago, 1t
has been considered advisable thus far not
TO allow the order In question to become
public lest there be q renewal OF the eN-
oitement provoked by tho issuance of The
original order for the concentration vi
customs at Havana.
Intelligent Cubans who arc in posses
sion Of facts are generally worried over thn
situation. as are also the Americans, for
this and other recent orders virtually re-
duce the military governor of the depart
ment TO mere automaton. Such a policy
us is now suggested regarding The work OF
sanitation might have been applied in hu-
spst last, but II is certainly not in order
TODAY. Very likely the sanitary conditions
at Havana now resemble those of Santiago.
In any event letters and dispatches re-
ctived from the capital show dense iguor-
ance regarding the provinces.

The Report Submitted Makes No Sug-
GestiOn as tn the Future.
Washington, January l9,-'The Cuban
evacuation commission was dissolved today
and its members submitted to the rresi-
dent, the secretary of state and the sacre-
tary of war report on their labors. The
report makes no reference to the future
government Of the island and embolies no
political recommendations whatsoever, con-
sisting practically of record of its pro-
ceedings with the voluminous reports be-
tween the Spanish commission and the adj
ministration at Washington. Secretary Al
ger and the president warmly congratulate
ed the commission on its successful and
expeditions work.
The commissions session occupied less
than one hour and was of purely for
NAL character The papers II submits as
its records and report were finally passed
on and the signatures of the commission
ers affixed. With everything in complete
shape the commission work was closed
and it adjourned sine die after noon.
The commission at noon made its formal
call upon Secretary Hay and submitted 10
him the original reports of its procedure
together with numerous exhibits, plans
matters of Importance. Secretary Hay re-
sponded in brief address. He stated that
he was surprised ut the rapidty with
which the work was accomplished. That
tho work was phenomenally perfect and
reflected great credit on the members OF
the commission. The commission then re-
paired to the war department and sub
mitted to Secretary Alger a duplicate OF
the proceedings. The secretary in a brief
speech congratulated the members OH the
admirable manner In which they had ac-
complished the evacuation.
