GOVERNOR NOUN rs DILEMMA.

Denver Evening Post: Governor
Mount, of Indiana is in sad dilemma
1t will be remembered that he refused
TO honor the requisition of the govern
or of Kentucky for the extradition OF
Taylor, the former governor Of Ken.
lucky, ousted from Office by decision
of the federal supreme court, to which
he had appealed from the decision of
the state Supreme court. Taylor was
indicted by the grand jury on testi-
mony principally given by his party
associates, for completely in the plot
to assassinate Governor. .Goebel. From
the testimony adduced in the trial of
Powers, the former state secretary,
accused of the same crime, it now ap-
pears that Taylor is even more guilty
of the charges brought against him by
the grand jury than Powers, who
sought to evade justice by fight from
the state, but was less successful than
Taylor as he was overtaken by tie
officers as he was fleeing in disguise
Taylor is fugitive from justice in
Indiana. whose governor, on partisan
grounds, refuses his extradition. Since
the testimony in the Powers case has
become public Governor Mount of In
diana feels less sure about the cor
rectness of the position taken by him
when he refused the extradition Of
Taylor and thereby violated the pro-
vision of the federal constitution. That
consideration, however, probably does
not count so much with him as the in
jury his action may do his party in
the coming election. According to
the testimony now before the public,
testimony given by party associates
of the fugitive, Taylor was not only
the leading spirit in the conspiracy to
assassinate Governor Goebel and a
number of members of the Kentucky
Legislature sufficiently large to give
the Republicans control OF that bohy.
but also urged his co-conspirators on
10 commit murder, assuring them of
mis- executive clemency and pardon in
advance. And this ie the man Gov
ernor Mount of Indiana refused to ex-
tradite.

Chicago, August 2.-The Record
says, under a London date line:
Congressman Charles d. Grosvenor,
Of Ohio, the election prophet Of the
Republican party, furnished the Rec
ord correspondent his first Official
forecast for 1900. He gives Mckinley
and Roosevelt "sure total" Of 27s
electoral votes, Including the votes of
the states Of Kansas, South Dakota
and Washington carried by Bryan in
1896. He puts in the doubtful column
Kentucky, Nebraska, Utah and Wy.

he declares the Repu blicans have a
mortgage. OF the total of 1872 votes
conceded to Bryan and Stevenson, Mr..

Carolina and that he has more than a
fighting chance of winning ten votes
of Colorado, Idaho and Montana,

This unequivocsl attitude of Mr.,
Neff cannot fail to give satisfaction to
and receive the sanction of every vot-
er in Oklahoma who believes In the
caus. and principles espoused by the
peerlC IS leader, VIM. J. Bryan.
The LEADER believes Mr.. Neff is a
strong candidate; we believe be truly
represents the cause q the people as
opposed to the imperialistic and trust
ridden policies OF the Hannaized Nc
Kinley administration represented in
this territory by Dennis T. Flynn.
That he will make rousing cam
paign we have not the slightest doubt.
Success comes only through persis-
tent us.ling, and that Bob Neff will
hustl not even the warmest follower
Of Flynn will deny, In personal qua
| lities, Mr.. Neh differs vastly from Mr..
Callahan. He possesses the power 10
attract and hold. Moreover, he has
had experience in the world; he under
stands men, and distances Flynn in
the matter of ho ding the passing ac-
quaiatance. And above ali this he is
square.
AS an orator he has few equals in
Oklahoma, and his utterances are
never dull, insipid or frowsy. He pos
sesses the happy faculty OF expressing
himself concisely and clearly, and his
able presentation Of the issues during
this campaign cannot fail to win the
attention Of his hearers. The LEADER

THE CONGREssIONAL STANDARD
BEkRER

The Democrats and Populists, com
prising the reform forces Of Oklaho-
ma, have spoken. In joint convention
they have named as their congression-
al bearer, the Hon. Robert A. Neff, of
Kay county.
The convention was unquestionsbly
the most harmonious ever held in the
territory and the result gives unslloy-
ed satisfaction to the allied parties of
reform.
While 1t is true q N odicum OF bitter.
cess was naturally engendered in the
selection of candidate, it was clear
from the first ballot that Neff was the
favorite, and with the adjourn
ment of the convention all i'll feeling
vanished and both Democrats and
Populists enrolled themselves under
the banner OF reform to labor and
vote for the overthrow of Flynnism.
The fight for suprem on the part
of the various counties was an inter-
esting one, and the showing made by
Wm. Cross and L. 2. Ross was GER
tainly gratifying to their supporters.
In advocating the coalition of the re-
form forces of Oklahoma for congress,
THE LEADER believed the best
ends could be subserved, in the
event Of the election Of the
nominee, by placing him on a Demo
cratic ticket instead of Free Silver
or "Imperialistic" ticket, which meant
nothing go far as party identity was
concerned. The joint convention hap
PLY eliminAt d all differences by unan
imously naming candidate in joint

conference committee acted with wis
dom AID judgment, and the joint
convention did the best thing possible
in unanimously adopting the confer~
ence report and thus solidfying the
forces of reform without entailing
bitterness of party strife.
In accepting the nomination of the
joint parties Mr.. Neff stated
his position plainly, concisely and
succinctly. Said he:

"One Edward Sullivan, who was an en-

was recently killed in a collision. His
parents formerly lived and still live, as
far as is known. in Washington, and are
supposed to have been contractors. On
request of Colonel Cody, l am endeavor-
ing to find them. Sullivan was about
thirty-eight years old. and had been with
the Show for some fifteen years. His peo-
ple lived in Washington great many
years and perhaps you can put me in
communication with them. If you WILL
I have no doubt but what your man who
looks the matter up will be fully recon-

The collision referred to occurred out
eide Of Chicago about one week ago. The
wrecked train carried the properties and
men of the Wild West Show. Several OF
the men, all OF whom were canvassmen,
were injured and Sullivan and two others
were killed. The local police viii make
