RUSH TO NEW YORK.

Bryan was so enthusiastically received in
New York that the Republicans are scared al
most to death, and are rushing all of their best
speakers and workers from other states to New
York. They realize the fact that the state is
not safely Republican by any means. Hanna
is there with the rest of the gang.

Monument Unveiled.

The services Of unwilling the
monument in memory Of James
Poole, who was killed by a desper'
ado last July, by the Woodmen Of
the World at Welch, last Sunday
afternoon, were attended by a
very large crowd OF people, and
had il not bsen for the inclemency
of the weather the crowd would
have been at least as large again.
The Cbetopa Merchants band was
in attendance and furnished APP
propriate music for the occasion.
A number Of people from Chetopa
were present as we'll as from most
surrounding towns. 1t was feared
that the rain would prevent the
services at the cemetery, but at
about 2 O'Clock the people as
sembled at the school house in the
southwest part Of the city, where
after an overture by the band an
officer Of the lodge made a short
address, which he concluded by
placing Prof. Brewer Of Miami in
charge of the unwilling ceremon-
les. Then all the audience that
we're not members Of the lodge
were excused for a few minutes
until the lodge could perfect their
arrangements for the ceremonies.
At 2:30 o'clock the procession,
headed by the band, followed by
the members of the w. 0. w. pres
ent, then the citizens in carriages
and on horseback, was formed and
proceeded to the WEIGH cemetery,
about a mile and one.half west of
town-the procession extended
nearly the entire distance.
Rhe monument was enclosed by
ropes in shape of a large wedge,
with an entrance about ten feet
wide at the north end; the mem
bers of the lodge we're arrnged in
a line along either side and the
band at the south end. The cere.
monies we're opened with a dirge
by the band, after which followed
the regular ceremony Of the order.
Then an address was made by
Brewer in which he explain
I'D the origin of the idea of erect
a monument in memory of a
deceased brother, after which res

Flynn will still carry the county by from

fifty Democrats who win not vote for

man who is beyond peradventure fho is

NEFF IN CAMPAIGN CLOTHES
His Garb Is Studied to Capture the
Pnnulistic Vote.

Guthrie. o. T., Sept. 9.-Candidate Bob
Nem passed through the icty today en-
route to Oklahoma City, where, with the
other congressional candidates, he had
been invited to deliver a Labor Day ad-
dress. The andidate had forsaken his
usual jaunty headgear and frilled shirt
for the occasion and wore instead ty-
pical Rough Rider hat and a hickory
shirt Of the most approved Populist pat
tern.
He sat in the smoking car putting away
at a mild fivecenter, in the meantime
keeping up a lively conversation with a
party Of friends who surrounded him.
Questioned in regard to the progress Of
the campaign he jointly maintained that
he already had the fight practically won
and that now it was simply a question
of the size of the majority-still he failed
to particularize where his majorities were
coming from. He gave out the informa-
ton that he would commence the cam
paign in the southwestern counties next
week, opening at Mangum, in Greer
county. on the 10Th inst. As to the
length of time he would devote in that
section Of the country he could not say,
stating that it would be a matter for
his managing committee to determine.
When asked If ne intended making po-
litical speech at the Ofklahoma City Ia

such was not his intention, but that he
should devote his time solely to the dis
cussion Of labor questions.

and as he jumped his foot slipped and he
was hurled under the slowly moving

head and body were fearfully bruised.

Guthrie, o. T., Sept. 3.-Charles Cong
don, q freight conductor on the Santa

train at Perry this morning and instant
~ killed. AS his train was pulling into
the station Congdon stepped down from
the engine with the intention of receiv-
ing his clearance orders from the agent,
and then to catch the rear end of his
train, so as to avoid loss of time AS he
reached the station platform, however,
his foot slipped and his body was thrown
between the moving train and the plat
form, and before the brakes could be eff
fectively applied he was dragged proba-
bly, hundred feet. The body was man
gled in a horrible manner and death must
have been almost instantaneous. Cong
don lived at Arkansas City, running
freight trains between that place and
Purcell, and as far as known he had no
family or other relatives living with him.
