The Wagner Sayings is nothing
if not straightforward. The st,
Louis Republic recently deprecated
the memorial sent to congress by
the Missouri State Teachers as
sociation in tie interest of free
schools for the Territory, saying
that the government was doing a
great work for the Territory and
that it should be left to it own de-
vices without outside interference.
Commenting on this the Sayings,
among other things, says:
Well, we think the government
has been playing the devil in doing
a great work for the Territory.

Famous Bob Taylor, Feb. 2.
Paid at PauIs Valley.

The South McAlester Capital
says:
From Capt. Jack Ellis, who has
just returned from Pauls Valley, it
is learned that the merchants of
that place, who had been ordered
to pay their tax or get out by the
18th inst, decided to pay when he
appeared to enforce the order. He
said they were laboring under a
misappreheDsion or misunderstood
ing of the law and were easily SET
right. But we suspect that to be
just a pleasant way Capt. Jack has
of telling what they did when he
notified them to put up or pack up.

WARREN AT sploNkoP.
Twenty Thousand Transvaal Troops
Yet Bar TIE Road to White.


London. Jan. 26.-Gen. Butler
lifted the veil from Natal just
enough yesterday morning to al
lay temporarily the great anxiety
about that great assault on Spion-
kop and instantly all London and
England and large part OF the
world shouted of a great English
victory.
Now the veil is down again and
the same mysterious silence settles
over Natal.
London grows nervous once more
and begins to try to figure ont
whether it was really victory at
ter all. All night messengers have
been running from the newspaper
offices to the war Office.
All night telephone bells have
been iingling in the news centers
with, Have you any more news
from Natalq" and the invariable,
mot word"
To be sure, Gen. Warren took
Spionkop, but that is only one of
dozen Boer positions between
him and Ladysmith, and hundreds
of British soldiers must have been
laid low, although we know the
name of bat one-Gen. Woodgate.
He died from his wounds.
England naturally clings to the
belief that Wednesdays fighting
was a victory, but the continental
experts say it was far from vic
tory.
What has been done since none
knows save that there was certain
ly more fighting, more slaughter
and more blood and perhaps q
disaster.
Ladysmith is still very far from
being relieved in spite of Genera
Warren's battle at SpiOnkop in the
opinion of Gen. Sir William Greer
: of Crimean and Indian fame:
read the cable message as meaning
that Warren has occupied the ele
waited part of the kop," he sai(
6 today.
o The Beers are still ON the ridge
e and it will now be Warren's ain
+ to drive them completely off.
He ought to be able to do this
but he needs endorsements.
1t is evident that he surprise
only an advance force of the Beers
who were still strong enough t
keek up a shell fire all of yesterday
e MY belief is that the Beers be
tween Warren and Ladysmith nun
Il Der 10000. Butler must hurry u
Il men to sustain Warren, who NEAR
y time will hold his position.
p" 'Ladysmith cannot yet be relie1
ed for some time.
p White, meanwhile, cannot a:
t, sist Butler much. The ammun
d ton at Ladysmith is running shor

An Exciting Experience.

The Muskogee Times contributes
the following bit of early history:
Mr.. George Trenholm of Spring
field, Mo-, is in the city visiting
friends. Trenholm is a character.
Away back when the Katy was
building through the territory he
had charge of pile driving gang.
When the gang got to Coody's
creek below town there was a
mutiny. Trenholm got out the
pile driver and pulled a gun and
told the men he would shoot the
first man who attempted to delay
work on the bridge. A big Irish
man living in this town today said:
You are an Englishman, Tren-
holm, and we are going to sacrifice
you" and with that he and five
men rushed at Trenholm. They
tied him with ropes and carried
him under the pile driver. Then
they fastened him on the block and
then went to the engine and built a
fire under the boiler. Just as soon
as the steam began to indicate
enough pressure the men danced
around with glee. Trenholm, how.
ever, was not so easy. He had but
one friend in the camp, and that
friend was Col. Jake Hodges OF
Paris, Texas, who was visiting him.
Hodges saw the affair through and
stood the men off, saved Tren-
holm's life and won out.

We are glad to note that some
sidewalk building is at last in pro-

therefor, but we felicitate on the
fact. A good example is a great
incentive, and it is to be hoped
that the spirit of pros fessiveness
and Improvement will prove en-
demic.
