JAMES WILKINS FOR DELEGATE
Blackwell Times Record StrOnsI
Endorses This Gentleman.

Guthrie, o. T., March 16.-Of the can
didacy of James Wilkins of Kay county
for national delegate. the Blackwell
Times-Record says: Kay county is one
of the most important counties in Okla
homa in point of population, CONNER
cia1ly and politically and is entitled TO a
delegate to the national Republican con-
vention. There are a number of men in
the county who would make splendid del
egates, but We want at this time man
who is thoroughly representative both as
a citizen and as a Republican. We want
a man who will go to that convention
and be credit to the country and to the
territory he represents. We want a man
who is above party clique and party fac
ton, and who is broad-gauged enough to
represent the Republican party. We
must have a man whose character can
not be assailed and whose integrity is
unquestioned, and one who will stand I'M
finchingly for right, and we believe we
have such man in the person OF the
Honorable James Wilkins, the present
representative from this district. Mr..
Wilkins is not a smooth politician; he
is not the polished orator, but in the
councils of the party he would be as
strong as the Rock of Gibraltar. His
record as a member Of the legislature
bears out his reputation for being a care
full, conservative, thorough Republican,
and we believe that the duties that would
devolve upon him as delegate to the ma
tional convention would be performed to
the entire satisfaction of the Republicans
Of Oklahoma. We don't understand that
Mr. Wilkins is asking such honor at the
hands of the party, but we know him
we'll enough to know that if the party
demands such service Of him that he will
do it as he has always done every duty
imposed upon him, with the ardor and
earnestness of which he is capable, and
with the purpose of conserving the best
interests of his party. We take pride and
pleasure in suggesting Mr.. Wilkins to the
consideration of the Republicans of Ok
lahoma, and will vouch for him should
they seee the wisdom of eIecting him as
a delegate to the Republican national
convention"

OKLAHOMA RAILWAY VALUES
Probably Total $4,000, OO0- Assessors
Valuations Thereon
! Valuations Thereon.

Guthrie, O. T., March 1.-THE terri
torial board Of railway assessors met in
the, office of the governor last evening
and after thorough examination of the
returns made by the several railroads de-
eided upon the following valuations for
taxation purposes for the year 1890:
The Santa Fe system: Arkansas City
division, $500 valuation per mile. Kiowa
division, $500 per mile.
The Rock Island system, 5000 per mile
The Choctaw system, $4,000 per mile
Hutchinson and Southern, $1,000 per
mile.
All side tracks, $4,000 per mile.
1t was decided to assess all roads con-
structed during the past year, $1,000 valu-
alton per mile for main tracks, and 81, 600
per mile for side tracks. This includes
the Eastern Oklahoma, the Frisco branch
to Blackwell, the Rock Island to Chick
asha and several others.
On rolling stock the assessment was
made the same as last years: Locomo-
tives, $1,000 valuation each; passenger
cars, $2000 each; mail, baggage and ex-

city. Mr. Quigley was seen at the Grand
Avenue last night by the Times Journal
and said: 1--WE want to build in this city
the finest series of plants that money
will buy and expect, if we get the fran
chises that we want to commence work
at once on an electric light and power
plant, a gas plant and an electric street
railway system and every one of them
will be of the most modern equipment
We have an ordinance now that will al
low US to build the street railway plant,
with a few notifications on unimportant
points, and if we get the electric light
ordinance introduced last night we viii
build at least four or five miles of street
railway and equip it with the best of
rolling stock. We are to introduce a
separate ordinance, a franchise for gas
plant that will be up-to-date. and if we
get it we will be able to furnish this city
with gas at about the same rate, in a
few years, that we are furnishing to 9TH
er cities of this size, and that is at about
81 per thousand which is much less than
most cities pay for the gas. Our schedule
of prices for electric lights and power IN
der the present ordinance are much less
than is usually paid and we can afford
to make it less because we build orr
plants with the best machinery that we
can get, and they are money-saving in
their operation. l believe that this city
viii be one of five times its present size
or ] would not want to invest a dollar
here, and in this belief we want to get
an investment that will enable US to put
in plants in unison so that we can make
them profitable at the lowest possible
rates or service to the consumers. am
going away in the morning, but if our
franchise proposals are accepted we will
get at work at lonce and the plans will
soon be in operation We will pay any
price that appraisers will make on the
present electric plant here. and every bit
of its machinery Will be sold at what it
will bring as scrap. Our plants are said
to be the finest in the country and the
ones that we will build here will be in
advance of any we now have"

gers arriving in Jersey City and New
York over the Vandalia-Pennsylva

aid travellers in shaping details for con-
tinuing Journeys from New York over the
Pennsylvania Lines by furnishing tickets

from steamship docks after 1t has been
passed by customs inspectors. and having
the same checked through 70 destination.

MORRILL, ANNUITY FUND
Being Looked After in a Re-
cent Amendment
MORRILL, ANNUITY FUND

Guthrie, O. T.. March 1s.-Thee free
homes measure has gained a valuable al
ly in what has been heretofore perhaps
the most formidable single interest OPP
posed to it. namely, the agricultural col
leges. The following letter to Presi-
dent Scott. of the Agricultural and Me-
chanical college at Saltwater is from DR..
II. H. GoodelI, president Of the Agricul-
turaI college Of Massachusetts and chair
man of the executive committee Of the
Association of American Agricultural Col
leges and Experiment Stations. From
this letter it viii be seen that the agricul-
tural colleges are now in a position not
only to withdraw their hostility to the
measure, but 10 be enthusiastically in its
favor, since tibet suggested amendmen

more sure and lasting than 1t is at pres

been made respecting the effect upon the
Morrill, annuity of 1880, by the passage
of the free homestead act, that a word
of explanation seems necessary. The
funds from which the Morrill, annuity
is paid are by law derived from the pro-
ceeds Of the sale Of public lanGl. The
free homestead act gives away the public
lands and thus cuts off at once our in
come. There at the present moment in
congress two free homestead bills, senate
II and house H. R. 996. The one in the
house contains the following proviso:
That in the event that the proceeds Of
the annual sales Of the public lands shall
not be sufficient to meet the payments
heretofore provided for agricultural col
leges and experimental stations, such de
fcienctes shall be paid by the United
States
THE following amendment has been ac-
cepted by the aG1nor Of the bill and by
the committee on public lands. TO which
the bill was referred: After the words
heretofore provided strike out for ag-
ricuIturaI colleges and experimental sta
tons and in pace thereof insert by an
act of congress approved August 30, 1890,
for the more complete endowment apd
support Of the colleges for the benefit of
agriculture and mechanic arts, establish
ed under the provisions of an act of con-
gress approved July ., 1852 The bill is
now on the calendar Of the house. This
amendment will be offered by the author
of the bill and supported by the full
committee # the bill thus amended
passes. it win pee the Morrill, annuity
on an absolutely secure foundation The

Fiso. 1t would seem the part Of wisdom

house and the senate of the situation OF

practically blocked. The sleet On the
third-rail supplying electric power to the
bridge cars cut off the current and again

Brooklyn, was almost completely tied up

districts of the boroughs OF Manhattan
and the Bronx, similar conditions pre-
vailed. The fall of snow in jersey was

lines completely. A number of horses
were killed by contact with the live wires.
No fatalities from the cold are reported

office, said the eastern mails were be-
tween one and twelve hours late, the
western from an hour and half to three
hours late.
