MUCH INTEREST
Manifested in Coming Meeting
Of A. N. Association. .Recip.
rocity to be Considered.

Washington, d. C.-very consider
able interest 10 being manifested here
in sugar circles concerning the forth
coming meeting of the National
Manufactures Association, which
meets in this city Nov. 10 to consider
the subject Of reciprocity in all
phazes.
The president, as we'll a. leading
Republicans, have given the matter
some consideration, and the general
opinion seems to be that the West In
dia treaties, that are based on sugar
and fruits, and which have been hung
mp in the senate committee on for
eign relations since December 1, 1899,
will not be ratified, and there appears
to be very grave doubts whether the
French treaty will be given favorable
consideration, the knit goods and
glassware and chemical interest being
opposed to it. The Trinidad treaty
has been Withdrawn. The Argentine
treaty, based on wool and hide duty
reductions, will, it issaid, be thrown
overheard to placate the sheep and
cattle interests Of Wyoming, Texas
Montana, Vermont and uome other
states.
Since the late presidents speech at
Buffalo, Sept. 8, and that delivered
BY President Roosevelt at Minneapo-
Lis, on Sept. 2, the subject of recip-
rocity has engaged very general at
tention throughout the whole coun-
try, but those who have long
received the benefits of liberal rates
Of protective duty on their products,
and who may be willing to scaridce
industries that are undeveloped in
order to gain better markets abroad
for their surplus goods, have found
an obstacle in that plank in the plat
form Of the Philadelphia National
Republican convention of 1900 which
limits reductions Of duty on foreign
products that do not compete with
those produced here, like sugar,
fruits, oranges, vegetables, wool,
hides, etc.
It is claimed that this idea was re-
iterated BY the late president and by
President Roosevelt in their speeches
at Buffalo and Minneapolis. 1t il
stated that Senator Cullom has given
the subject of reciprocity some atten-
ton, and that the meat combine"
of Chicago and the Implement trust
are urging the senator to favor the
treaties.
Il il we'll known that the matter
has been informally talked over by
Senators and others at the White
House, bat, whatever the Presidents
views may be, he has given no sign.
Il il said he will probably suggest
national aid for irrigation for arid
lands In the West. which would be OF
sreat advantage to agricultural. and
especially to the beet sugar industry.

because he found that the Schley

true inwardness Of the case. however.
seems to be that he resigned on 90

up To the fire. sprang Ia the ground,
dropped the long bride reins at his
feet. faced the astonishcd men and
remarked:
Now, gentlemen, II you have rope
ready, here ! am. ! am the Marquis
de Mores."
The unsteady blaze, lcaping up aud
falling low, like the pulse of n man
who Is dying of thirst On the desert.
| showed the Marquis strange, pale
face. His lips were drawn In smile
such as some of the rustiers had seen
on mems faces when they turned their
backs to the wall, after hope was
gone, and fought for the sake of kill
ing. In his hands were two long-bar-
relied pistols. upon the nickel trim
mings of which the light scintillated.
His sombrero was pushed back from
his forehead and his hands were in.
cased In gloves.
For moment there was not n
sound around the little blaze. The
Marquis horse shook its head and be-
gan snufiing and nosing about in the
shrubbery at it's feet. One of the long
pistols In the Marquis hands pointed
at the breast Of the leader OF the
gang; the other, as "Gunny Sack Bill"
could see, pcrsistently followed his
head. no matter how he turned II.
Presently the leader OF the gang
threw his revolver down with an oath
which made the Marquis horse start,
jerked his hat of, and advanced to-
ward the Frcnchmnn, holding out his
hand.
"Put '-r there. pard," he said. "You

Then facing his grlm-faced crew,

Guthrie, School Land Commissioner
o. >. Houston has received an opinion
from Attorney General Strang relative
10 the use OF certain indemnity school
iand monies. The act was passed at
the last session of the legislature and
there was some question whether the
act meant all indemnity lands or in.
demnity school lands. The law reads
as follows:
That OF all monies received from
indemnity lands after the first dav Of
July, 1901, IL shall be the duty of the
territorial treasurer to refund 10 the
district wherein such indemnity land
Is located Is per cent. of the rental SO
received, said money TO be paid 10 the
said sch.'ol district through the county
treasurer Of the county in which said
lands may be located, ON or before the
first day of July in each year.
1t shall be the duty of the county
superintendent of each county in Okla
boma territory wherein indemnity
lands are located TO furnish the terri.
torial school land Office and the terri
torial treasurer with map of said
county. showing the boundaries of each
district organized in such county, com.
posed in whole or In part of indemnity
school lands"
Judge Strang held that i'm this ease
the law referred only to indemnity
school lands.
