What Counts.

This is the maxim they swear
most by,
And the young reporter may
take the hint:
"It isn't the stuff you write that
counts,
But what gets into print"
Reams and reams of paper are
filled,
Each day by scratchy pen
With burning thoughts and elo
quent words,
From the teeming brains of
men.
And the editor sits with his pen
Gil blue,
And winnows the wheat from
the chaff,
And what survives of the stuff
writ down,
1T good bit less than half.
Men who win are men who find
The shortest way the best;
Tho write no more than they
have to write
And the desk man does the rest.
And thus should the adjective
worshiper know,
The reporter wins renown
As much by the stuff he doesn't
write.
As that which he writeth
down.
Mark, then the maxim they
swear most by,
It's rule of the Office, hard as
flint,
at isn't the stuff you write that
counts,
But what gets into print

Our contemporary the Rayne
Tribune is responsible for the
following piece of good and honest
reasoning
The Rayne Tribune puts it in
these words: "When two men are
playing poker and one lends the
other money to continue the game,
the man who lends his money has
to trust the others honesty and
honor, because he cannot collect a
gambling debt by law; hence it is
called a debt of honor, and the
man who fails to pay such debts
is properly degraded III the eyes
of all men. 1t is the same way in
a primary election. A man can't
be compelled by law to abide by
the primaries, hence honor is at
stake and the man who goes back
on a primary fairly conducted,
will cheat at cards."

Let Organization Meet Organiza
tl0n.

The paper trust now has the
newspapers of the country at its
mercy, SO far as the price of paper
is concerned. The papers must
pay whatever price the trust sees
fit to charge.
The newspapers have it in their
power to crush this trust. BY
uniting in a fight against it, the
papers could force the trust to
terms. An organization, such as
the paper trust, can only be met
by organization, The whole pub
lie is interested Ill cheap paper,
and would back up the newspapers
in their fight OH the trust. Ii the
newspapers wo1ld get together and
whip the paper trust, they would
set good example, and at the
same time get out of the clutches
Of a trust that squeezes them as
much as possible.

How to get to Cape Nome.

"Great Caesar. What was the
matter with, with Senator Tom
Carter, of Montana, last Saturday
SAID the man who knows 1t all when
he GOT to talking about the gold
digging at Cape Nome and about
Alaska? He SAID that 100, 600 MN
ers would be engaged there the
coming summer digging gold along
coast extent not to exceed thirty
miles, and I'd like to know how he
WILL get them there.
'Tha ordinary ship in the service
to Cape Nome will carry a couple
OF hundred passengers, sandwlehIDg
six In a room and make the trip in
Two weeks, or four weeks for the
round trip, allowing three days at
each end for loading and unloading
AS some larger vessels will be put
on this season, and as whole fleet
of small sailing vessels are charter
ed to go, let us call the average
number of passengers that vessel
will carry 200. To work all summer
they must get their passengers there
by the lst of June, but that will
be impossible, as navigation will
scarcely be open then, so we will
start The summer on the lst of Au-
gust, which is fair enough allow
ance to give man for. a summers
work. There are already $500 peo
pie wintering at Nome, SO there
will be but 81, FOO to be carried III
the eight weeks.
"Eight weeks will give each ship
two trips and carrying 400 passen-
gers IN that time 1t will require 244
hips hustling as fast as they can.
Now, where will they get 244 ships?
Especially as England is using all
hels in the South African trade.
And if they could, what a harvest
for the transportation companies.
The fare to Nome is 500 first class
and $75 second, say S87.50 average
for 81, 800 passengers, 50, 53l, 700
in eight weeks. Gee whiz, that
beats owning a Montana copper
m,ne. Where the mlschle did Tom
get his figures?
"Agsin as to Alaska, he said
that country had paid back TO this
a million dollars for
every thousand expended in It's pur-
chase. / cost in round numbers
seven millions of U. S. dollars,
that is seven thousand. Now a mik
lion for every Thousand would seven
thousand million dollars, and If
this government has got that much
out of Alaska where IS 1t at? Sena-
Carter hasn't got any of it, | am
sure, and as he ought to have his
share, on ils behalf ] ask again,
where 1t is?"-Naw York Sun.

The story of these gentlemen
and their duel-a famous one for
merly-is revived, and the tale is
thus repeated:
A duel was lately fought in
Texas by Alexander shott and
John S. Mott. Mott was shot, and
Shot was not. In this case it is
better to be Shott than Mott.
There was rumor that Mott was
not shot, but Shott avows that he
was not, which proves either that
the shot Shott shot at Mott was
not shot. or that Mott was shot
Notwithstanding.
1t may be made to appear on
trial the shot Shot shot shot Mott.
or, as accidents with firearms are
frequent, it may be possible tli t
the shot Shott shot. shot Shot him
self. when the whole affair would
resolve itself into It's original ele-
mcnt. and Shott would he shot and
Mott would be not.
We think, however, that the
shot Shott shot shot, not Shott,
but Mott. Anyway, it is hard to
fell who was shot.-Ex.

Bread Cast on the Waters.

The Chickasaw Enterprise tells
the following story of how one of
Pauls Valleys citizens will attend
the Paris exposition this year:
In 1894 there lived in Rush
Springs perpetual motion
crank, " by name Win d. Will
liams. Mr.. Williams made his
living doing odd jobs and a very
precarious living it was. Riley
Banday lived in Rush Springs at
that time and on several occasions
and in divers ways helped Will
liams in his time of adversely.
But time, that great magician,
changes all things. Williams has
perfected many useful patents
owns a foundry at Fredericksburg,
Virginia, and is independently
wealthy. That he has not forgot
ten his good Samaritan is evil
denced by the fact that he has
made arrangements to take Riley
to the Paris exposition at his ex-
pense, and thus is the old adage
of bread cast upon the waters ex-
empli6ed.

Tortured a Child.

Recent dispatches from Tulsa, |.
T., bring information of horrible
crime which has just come to light
near there. Frank Hakey of Fry,
twenty miles south of Tulsa, has
been arrested on charge of mur
der. Hakey was married to a
Creek indian woman, whose hus-
band had died and left her with a
6-year-old boy. After the mar
riage Hakey, it is said, made in
duiries to learn if the child's al
lotment of Indian lands would
revert to him in case the child
died. About two months ago the
child was found in a field suffering
from terrible burns on its body. 1t
died soon afterward. The child S
mother, it is alleged, told neigh
bors that if they would arrest
Hakey, so he could not kill her,
she would tell what she knew.
This was done and the mother says
the child was burned in her pres
ence, for the purpose of getting
rid of it, and she was threatened
with the same fate if she did not
keep the secret. The people are
much excited and Hakey has been
taken to the Muskogee Jail.

Indian Territory Coal Royalty.

Washington, d. c. March 3 =
The ROYALTY on coal mined III the
Indian Territory has been fixed at
Uniform rate by the secretary OF
the interior. 1t will be Sc a ton
hereafter on the mine run. The
change is from Zoe on lump coal.
According to the returns, the
proportion of lump or screened coal
to mine run coal varies from three
fourths to two thirds. The change
to Sc will, it is believed, be better
for the Indian nation and its school
fund. 1t will result in sending to
market larger proportion OF the
product than when the coal was
screened and the higher royalty was
paid on the lump.
The operators petitioned for a
change from screened to mine run,
but fixed the amount they wanted
to pay at Csc. Secretary Hitch
cock gave the subject a thorough
Investigation and decided that, IN
view of all the favorable conditions
of leases and veins, Sc on mile run,
applicable to the entire industry in
the territory, would be fair. Fed
eral officials familiar with the sit
uation agreed that the new rate
was equitable to the operators and
the Indians. 1t is expected that
the new arrangement will give a
fresh impetus to the industry.
Operators will be able now to make
bids for yearly contracts.
