The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1900-06-07

The following extract is taken
from letter to Preston S. Davis.
from life long democrat living In
Bentonville, Ark, the former
home Of Mr.. Davis. The letter is
dated May 9Th, 1900
"Say, Preston, what is the mat
ter with our friend Bertram, Of
the Starr ! see from his sheet
that he pretends to be democrat
and is using his paper to instruct
the democrats over there how to
vote and who TO vote for. He Ger,
tainly 10 blessed with an overpro-
duction Of gall. / would infer
from the sound of his little paper
that he'is'against you. Tits funRy'
that he would run such strong
republican paper here and In so
short time open up his little
shop over there, pretend 10 be AZ
democrat and use his paper TO de-
feat one who has been a demo-
crat since his birth. ! wouldn't
think his influence amounts TO
much, especially under such cir
stances as the above"

The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1900-06-07

is estimated by Davis Hill's
friends that il cost Hill and his
coterie from $125 to $3.50 to get
his 216 votes in the Vinita demo-
cratic.club. Restaurant bills, livery
hire, and money spent to get the
mortgages Of the Vinita National
bank in from the country are
among the items of expense. The
Leader says ''the people are find
ing out who Hill is, what manner
of man he is Il etc. = Yes this is
true and they have become asham-
ed of him in several instances and
have cancelled their endorsements
Of him. Pryor Greek found him
out, and found that he suffered his
benchmen to grossly misrepresent
the club, apd they cancelled his
endorsement and instructed for
Reynolds. Welch found him out
along the same lire and cancelled
him. What can the rest Of the
Cherokee nation expect from Davis
Hill in the way of patronage when
he has already promised every
thing, from country postmaster up,
in the event Of national democratic
success, TO his workers? A man
with a complete slate is not in
position to keep any one but his
immediate friends. Reciprocity
is republican doctrine, but the
man with slate is herdly able to
reciprooate.

The Oleomargarine Bill.

The Grout Bill has passed the
House of Representatives by very
large majority. The bill is not only
in the interest of dairymen but in
the interest of butter consumers and
indeed in favor of buyers of butter
substitutes, and discriminates only
against imposition and fraud. This
bill increases the tax on oleomarga-
rine and other butter substitutes
from cents to 10 cents a pound
o0heR offered for safe c0l0red in
imitation Of butter. The coloring
of mixture of tallow, hogs fat and
cotton seed oil to look like butter
enables the vendors to get for it a
butter price by means of the decep-
ton. Any one has perfect right
to purchase and use ole if he choos-
es to do so but it is his privilege to
know the true character of the goods
in question. That the stuff is cheap
ly produced may be inferred from
the market price of tallow, the prin-
cipal ingredient of oleomargarine.
This is now quoted at ? cents a
pound, price double what it was
before this enormous industry of
manufacturing butter substitutes en-
HANGED its value. This oleo when
ready for the market has not cost
more than 3 cents a pound, yet with
a butter color it completes in the
market with genuine butter that
costs the farmer not less than IS
cents pound to produce.
In 1899 S3,I39,9oI pounds of this
oleomargarine was manufactured in
this country and 65o,ooo,ooo pounds
in the last II years.

An era of approximate harmony
between the statesmen of all political
parties on all vital questions during
the existence of the 9th Congress
seems probable. There is but little
of bitterness between partisans at
the present time. The best in
formed Democrats were prepared
for the defeat of their ticket, having
but little heart or faith in the two
main issues they contended for in
the campaign-free silver and oppo-
sition to expansion. The South,
especially, accepts the result with a
good grace. There was a general
acceptation Iof the policy of expan-
sion among them, and an acqui-
escence in the wisdom of the gold
standard. The administration will
have strong support in both Senate
and House, Republican majority
of 20 in the former and of about 30
in the latter But aside from the
fact that opposition to administra-
tive measures would be futile the
Democrats are in sentiment not very
hostile to Republican policies-the
maintenance of the credit of the
government, in finance, in diplomacy
and in arms.
The 57th Congress, that convenes
March 4, 1901, ought to be sufficiently
accustomed to business to accom-
plish without delay the necessary work
demanded of them, as 270 Of the 357
mem bers OF the House served in
the present (56th) Congress and
there are fewer changes in the Senate
proportionate to the relative number
of a full delegation.

NAPOLEON.

j. IT HEADLY IN NATIONAL TRIBUNE
When the prejudice and falsehood
and hatred of Napoleon's enemies
shall disappear, and the world can
gaze impartially on this plebeian SOL
der rising to the throne of an en-
pire, measuring his single intellect
with the proudest kings of Europe,
and coming off victorious from the
encounter, rising above the preju-
dices and follies of his age, making
kings of plebeians and plebeians of
kings" grasping as if by intuition
all military political science, expend-
ing with equal facility his vast ener-
gies on war or peace, turning with
the same profound thought from
fierce battles to commerce, and trade
and finances; say when the world
can calmly thus contemplate him,
this amazing genius will receive that
homage which envy and ignorance
and hatred now withhold.
And when the intelligent philan-
thropist shall understand the politi-
cal and civil history of Europe, and
see how Napoleon broke up its sys-
tenn of oppression and feudalism,
proclaiming human rights in the
ears of the world, till the continents
shook with the rising murmurs of
oppressed man; study well the chan
ges he introduced, without which
human progress must have ceased;
see the great public works he estab-
lished, the institutions he founded,
the laws he proclaimed, and the CIV
il liberty he restored, and then, re-
Numbering that the bloody wars
that offset all these were waged by
him in self-defense and were equal
rights struggling against exclusive
despotism, he will regret that he has
adopted the ISLANDERS of his foemen
and the falsehoods of monarchists.
