NO QUESTION ABOUT INDIANA
Editor GOldwaithe of That state Is
Certain OF Its RenuhIicanism

Guthrie, o. T, Oct. 20.-Edgar L. Gold
thwaite, editor of the Marion Qnd.)
Chronicle, who is visiting his former
townsman, School Land Commissioner C.
II. Fflson of this city, in an interview
express the following opinion as to the
political situation in Indiana: There is
no question at all about the Hoosier
state. Indiana is soidly undoubtedly
and overwhelmingly Republican. This
fact, however. is not surprising when
viewed from a business standpoint. We
come from the natural gas belt Every
factory is running with full complement
of men and every man that holds a Job
Is at work at better scale of wages
than he ever received before. The fac
tories are rushed to fill orders. That all
OF this is due to RepubIicanism and to
the wise policies Of our president is rec
ognlzed by employer and employee alike
and together they will vote for the re-
election of William Mckinley. Indiana
is not in the doubtful column this year
and November will back up my state
ment- The Democrats are sending their
noted speakers to our state, but factory
smoke and full dinner pals are the best
campaign speeches of this year"

Among the callers at Republican head
Quarters was Judge ]. NJ. Van Wrinkle,
OF Shawnee, who brought most cheering
news OF the politicap outlook in Potta-
watomie county, that former hotbed of
Democrats and Populists. Two years ago
Keaton carried the county, which has a
nominal fusion majority of 1.20o. by less
than 30. This year, Judge Van Wrinkle
asserts, the county is almost certain to
give Flynn a majority and also elect a
portion Of the county ticket. The Demo-
Gratis Of Pottawatomie county, he said
being usually of the southern variety,
share in the usual antipathy OF that ele-
ment against the Populists and ne cites
as a further fact that two-thirds of the
business men of Shawnee, Democrats
are openly espousing the cause of Flynn
and working for his election. He thinks
Flynn's majority will be not less than
10000 in the territory. Judge Van Wrinkle
headed the Pottawa tonne county delega-
ton in the Republican convention at Enid
and was strongly supported for a place
on the national delegation to Philadel-

THEY WON'T BE EXPELLED
Merchants at Ardmore Have Come Up
With the Tribal Tax

Muscogee, I. T, Oct. @.-Indian Agent
Shoenfelt reports that the proprietors Of
all the stores which were closed at Ard
more a few days ago for non-payment Of
tribal taxes, have complied with the re-
cent ruling Of the secretary Of the in
terror and paid their taxes, with the ex-
ception of one, who has removed from
the territory. Mr.. Shoenfelt states that 1t
is not the intention of the interior de-
partment to put anyone out of the terri
tory who is willing to pay the tax, and
that the issuing of restraining orders
was entirely unnecessary and uncailed
for as the court Of appeals for the In
dian territory. the highest tribunal in the
territory, has ruled that the interior de-
partment had a right to remove persons
beyond the limits of the territory who re-
fused 70 pay the tribal tax, and that II
was entirely discretionary with the com
missioner Of Indian affairs as TO whether
or not such persons would be allowed to
remain within the limits Of the Five

men rode into the place and dismounting

the drop on him, he reluctantly did. to
the amount of seven dollars and some
cents. The men then mouted their
horses and rode away to the east.

ONE OF THE QUEENS DRAGOoNs.
Rain in the eastern country,
The banshee's voice in the skies,
And a man lying low on the veldt,
With the driving mist in his eyes.
Cramped in drenching hollow,
on a battlefield three days DID,
A conlrade dead beside him
With eyes fuzzy white with the moulo
wounded, alone forgotten
Wild as a file of looms
Slowly starving brave to the last
one Of the Queens Dragons.
His feeble fingers scratching,
Aimlessly into the mud,
Tin over a battered helmet,
Half filled with Brltsin's blood.
With a babbIing. broken, ceaseless prayer
He rautters and signs and croons,
Alone on the miles-wide, rain-drenched
veldt.
One of the Queens Dragons.
A living man in the wilderness.
With the horror of dead men near
Ana beasts so gorged that they harm
him not.
Pint his blank eyes hold no fear
And a girl is dancing in London
And smiles for his coming soon,
While vaguely watching the eerie skies
Is diving her Queens Dragon.
