Shot Out of Turn.

A former member of the Gordon
highlanders relates the following anec-
dote IL connection with one OF the
Gordons who fought in the Anglo -Boer
war of 1881: Just before the battle of
Laingsnek the highlanders and a force
of the Beers were lying under cover
opposite each other. The highlanders
had been ordered to remain still and
hold their fire. Presumably the Beers
had received similar commands, for,
with the exception OF one burgher and
one Gordon, who could not refrain
from taking pot shots at so much OF
each other as they could descry, the
men on both sides were silent.
For some time the Boer and the high
lander referred to conducted a duel.
First the Boer would bob up from be-
hind his shelter, fire at the highlander's
cover and drop out of sight. The high.
lander would jump up, reply and then
hurriedly hide himself. About 20 shots
had been exchanged in that way when
an exclamation of pain burst from the
lips of the highlander. His left hand
had been shattered by one of the
Beers bullets.
THAT serves ye RIGHT, Mackenzie" /"
said his sergeant. "Ye waur telPd tae
be quiet"
"HoOt mon" replied the highlander.

Won BueIOw's Talk.

Berlin, Jan, 22.-The tone of the
British comments on Count Won
Buelow's speech in the reichstag
gives offense here and is causing a
fresh outbreak of bitter feeling.
The government is understood to
be displeased with the reception of
the foreign minister's speech in
England and the news that another
German ship has been captured
adds fresh fuel to the flames. The
papers ask how the seizure of q
ship with flour can be reconciled

THE BELMONT DINNER.
President Keller Will Ignore the Re-
quest Lodged With Him.

New York, Jan. ga dinner
given at the house of Oliver II. P.
Belmont tonight was the medium
of socially introducing Col. Bryan
to the leading spirits of Tammany.
Nearly every man prominent in the
councils of the Fourteenth street
organization was present, and the
cordiality of their feelings toward
Col. Bryan was unmistakable.
1t is not step beyond the linn
its of truth to say that the occas-
ion was love feast. Col. Bryan,
in the course of long speech, took
occasion to point out the mistakes
of the New York democracy during
the campaign of 1896.
= Speakers for the Tammany or
ganization and the state organiza-
ton frankly admitted the truth of
Col. Bryan's statements, and gave
promise of more judicious action in
the coming campaign.
A letter signed by John Fox, a
former president of the democratic
club, and others of that organiza-
ton was received by Commissioner
of Charities Keller today, urging
that the dinner to Col. Bryan at
the club tomorrow night be known
as n personal and not a club
function.
Mr.. Keller referred TO the letter
at the Belmont dinner and said
the club dinner would be given
Just the same.

Perry, Okla, Jan. pa tele-
phone message from Sunset, a
small town thirty miles east of
here, says that during a protracted
meeting at a school house near that
place last night, a half dozen men
rode up to the school house door
and began shooting at the door.
Preacher Martin and his congrega-
ton were ON their knees at prayer
when the shooting began, and it
caused immense excitement.
Twenty or thirty shots were fred,
and two men in the school house
were slightly wounded. Tie door
was riddled with bullets. After
emptying their pistols the ruffians
rode off laughing and boasting that
they had scared the preacher and
his band of old women"

Kidney Troubles.

The kidneys cleanse the blood and

torpid that it interferes with the
work of the kidneys the body suffers

Prickly Ash Bitters is it's stimulating
influence on the kidneys. 1t heals
and strengthens those organs SO that

THE British press is said to be
exercised over the visit of the
Hon. Webster Davis to the Trans
vaal, and especially over the fact
that President Kruger sent his
private car to transport him from

Hon. Webster will doubtless do
nothing, unless so ordered from
Washington. which will tend to
destroy his character of cynosure.

IT is not the province Of the
newspaper to raise the cry of
worlf," F" nor to charge at every
windmill as a dangerous enemy;
neither is it wise, when danger
really threatens to minimize its i'm
minence, and by false reports or
suppression of the truth, lull poo
pie int fancied security and pre-
vent the people from taking neees-
sary precautions by which an evil
may be erted.-Fairland Bee.
The above is the proper view to
take of the matter, without doubt,
and it is the view which the ARD.
MoREITE has always held. Taking
this view Of the province and duty
of a paper to its community the
ARDMOREITE sounded the note of
warning as soor as smallpox was
ascertained to exist on the Santa
Fe to the north Of us, and it was for
this reason tnaL we advocated the
establishment of quarantine, and
commended the officials when they
took that action. We published
the facts as nearly as we could as
eertain them, and while we took
an optimistic view of the situation,
we did not seek to lull our people
into a false security. For this
course the ARDMoREITE has been
vituperated and abused by some of
its contemporaries up the road
but we believe its course to have
been that of sound and honest
newspaper policy.

WHILE the farmers are prepar-

bear in mind that cotton is likely
to have a large acreage and large

the price will fall. The logical

Office until an early hour this
morning. AT midnight the news
papers were informed that the gov

but London is unable to learn any

been allowed to come over the cables
to the newspapers and all the edi-
tors are wondering whether there
has been another British check or
reverse.
In the slang of the streets it looks
like another good day for the Pre-
toria race track. In other words,
it looks like the Beers have added
more prisoners to their already
large contingent.
There is absolutely no truth IN
the story that the British have
entered Ladysmith.
Meager reports that have come
through from Natal presage a tire
mendous row between the Officers
of the regulars and those of th'

THE POLITICAL GRAFT.

AAO 4GASt SA4ob NAO R~ORAS - -
Territory are at the mercy of poll |
ticians has been known a long
while, but the consciousness of this
fact has been slow in obtruding |
itself. For six successive years,
or ever since the Dawes commits
sion was created, the people of this
country have deceived themselves
with the hope that the following
year would witness some appre-
ciable advance toward the solution
of their problems, even if they were
not settled definitely
The developments of last year,
however, have convinced everyone
that the Territory situation is
purely a political one from the
standpoint of those in authority,
and that industrial conditions do
not in any sense enter into their
calculations. However congress
men, as individuals, may view the
situation, it is evident that as
legislators they are prone to act
upon the suggestions of those in
authority in Territory affairs, and
here is where the political graft
does its work.
Those men who have drawn
thousands of dollars from the gov
ernment each year in salaries for
sinecure positions in the Territory,
and who expect to continue doing
so for several years to como, can
not be expected to furnish other
than favorable records for the con-
sideration of congressional COM
mittees that report on appropria-
tions and Indian Territory affairs.
Instead of asking for. increased
working forces to expedite the
business in hand. they assert that
expedition will injure the people
here. when as a matter of fact
patent to every one at all conversant
with the conditions prevailing here
every interest, CONNER cial, indus

peded and injured by the indie

white man alike suffer from tn
uncertainties prevailing and will
continue to suffer until normal
natural conditions are brough
about.
The report of the Dawes com
: mission and the recommendation
Il of the secretary of the interio
J, show, with the present workin
force, which they do not intend t
increase, that if every one of th
70 280 working days, allotted b
- them to year, is utilized for th
> maximum amount of work in tn
field, it will require five years t
